Chapter 134 Building No. 13
After discovering all this, I couldn't bear it any longer, so I found a store, bought a pack of cigarettes, and asked the boss again, mostly politely asking if the police had come today.

The boss told me that no, he even told me that the law and order in Niuwang Village is very good, and there are very few policemen here.

His words undoubtedly poured cold water on me. I only had one thought in my mind, we were deceived by Uncle Six.

At that moment, I bid farewell to the boss, and told Zhang Dequan what the boss had said.

Zhang Dequan thinks the same as me, and also thinks that Uncle Six has lied to us.

But, if Uncle Six is ​​lying to us, what purpose does he have?Why did he disappear?

This doesn't make sense!

After that, the two of us didn't stay for long and went back to the dormitory directly.

As soon as we arrived at the dormitory, before we entered the door, a man in his thirties rushed over. When he saw us, he was very excited and said to Zhang Dequan: "Boss Zhang, just before you leave, Three more people are missing."

When I heard it, I quickly asked, "Why did you disappear?"

He glanced up at me and said, "I went to the toilet and never saw anyone come back."

Damn it, why is someone missing again? If Sixth Uncle and the others disappeared, they were hiding something from us, but why are the three missing now?
At that moment, Zhang Dequan led us into the dormitory. I roughly counted the number of people, and there were 12 people left including me. According to Zhang Dequan, there were 17 people here before I came, that is to say In just one night and one day, six people disappeared inexplicably.

This made all of us feel as if there was a dark cloud over our heads, and everyone was in danger, afraid that we would be the next to disappear. Even I felt that this matter was getting more and more evil.

One afternoon, all 12 of us stayed in the room, and no one dared to go out again. Until [-] o'clock in the evening, that Zhang Dequan gathered all of us together, basically telling us that this matter is too evil and we have to find it. Boss Wu came over and asked who of us would like to find Mr. Wu.

All of us looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to go. In the end, no one was willing to go, so I had to stand up and say, "Uncle Zhang, let me go!"

When Zhang Dequan heard this, he immediately agreed without saying a word, and said to me: "Chuanzi, if you can get Boss Wu back, you will be the savior of all of us, and we will never forget your life-saving grace." .”

I understand what he means, this is just a polite remark. As for why I stand up, the reason is very simple. The workers here are all living with Zhang Dequan, but I am an outsider. In the end, they will also change their ways and ask me to go to Mr. Wu.

This is also human nature. Every contractor has his own team under his hands, and this kind of dangerous work is usually done by outsiders.

Even though I was young at that time, I had a very thorough understanding of these things.

When it was confirmed that I was going to find Mr. Wu, everyone's tense faces suddenly relaxed, and I was not polite, so I asked Zhang Dequan where Mr. Wu would be at this time.

According to my idea, Mr. Wu should be in Guangzhou. After all, when Mr. Wu sent me here, he said that he had something to do when he returned to Guangzhou. The reason why I asked Zhang Dequan was to know the exact location of Mr. Wu.

To my surprise, Zhang Dequan told me that Mr. Wu was in Niuwang Village.

When I heard the news, I was stunned as if struck by lightning, and said, "Is it really in Niuwang Village?"

He nodded slightly, as if thinking of something, he couldn't help but raise his tone, and said: "Mr. Wu talked about building the temple. At this time, the foundation of the temple is about to be laid. It is impossible for Mr. Wu to return to Guangzhou at this juncture. I even Dare to say, Mr. Wu may have known about this, but due to some factors, he didn't show up."

As soon as the words were finished, many workers started to boo, basically saying that Mr. Wu was careless about human lives, and that Mr. Wu was completely disregarding the lives of workers in order to make money.

For a moment, the whole scene seemed a little chaotic.

Hearing this, I felt rather complicated. Just yesterday, Zhang Dequan kept saying that Mr. Wu had treated him as much as a mountain. It was only a day later that he immediately pointed all the conflicts to Mr. Wu.

To be honest, I am a little disappointed in this virtue.

As the saying goes, "Husbands and wives are originally birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes," even if this is the case for husband and wife, not to mention the relationship between the boss and the contractor.

I originally wanted to say a few words for Mr. Wu, but thinking that they were emotional, once I spoke for Mr. Wu, I reckoned that they would point all the conflicts at me, so I simply went out without saying a word.

The moment I stepped out of the door, Zhang Dequan's voice came from the room, he said: "Chuanzi, Mr. Wu has an old friend in Niuwang Village, who lives on the seventh floor of Room 13."

I walked out without looking back.

After going out, it took me about half an hour to find the No. 13 room that Zhang Dequan mentioned. This is a nine-storey building. In this way, if this house is placed in any village, it will be a top-notch western-style building.

I found the stairs and climbed directly to the seventh floor. This seventh floor is a whole-family house, and there is only one house on the whole floor. I raised my hand and knocked on the door, and called out tentatively, "Is Mr. Wu there?" ?”

In less than a moment, the door opened, and the person who opened the door was an old lady around 60 years old, with silver hair, severe forehead wrinkles and eye wrinkles, wearing a blue top, black pants, and a pair of eyes. Kindness, but unfortunately, the old man's back is a bit hunched.

Seeing me, the old man smiled slightly and asked me: "Young man, what do you want to do with Old Wu?"

I smiled politely and said, "Is Mr. Wu here? I have something urgent to find him."

The old man smiled, nodded and said: "Yes, come on, come in quickly, don't stand at the door."

While talking, the old man led me into the house. In the room, I saw Mr. Wu who was tasting tea. What puzzled me was that he seemed to know that I would come, and he waved to me and said, "Chuanzi, come here." Chat with the old man."

I was in no mood to chat, and was about to speak when I saw Mr. Wu stand up slowly, patted my shoulder heavily, and said, "Don't say anything, listen to the old man first."

I hummed and stared at him closely, mainly because I wanted to know what Elder Wu wanted to say.

And that old Wu was not in a hurry to speak, first he boiled a pot of tea, then poured me a cup of tea, and said slowly: "Chuanzi, if I tell you that building a temple is just a cover, would you believe it?" ?”

"Pretend?" I was taken aback, looking at him suspiciously.

He smiled, took a sip from his teacup, and said in a low voice, "Before talking about this, I will introduce someone to you first."

While speaking, he glanced at the old lady who had brought me in, and said, "This is Sister She, and she is also the head of Niuwang Village."

As soon as I heard that, I quickly looked at the old lady, and found that the old lady was walking towards me. She grabbed a bamboo and rattan chair, sat down beside me, looked at me again, and just said After saying a word, I couldn't sit still anymore, and there was only one thought in my mind, to go back to Hengyang.
