Zhou Tong Detective Series

Chapter 26 Zhou Tong Detective Series II: Blood Talisman (5)
Liu Qingte seemed to want to say something when he heard the words, but in the end he hesitated to speak and did not speak again.

"Your reaction just now was a bit strange." Zhou Tong said suddenly, "Why do you think someone will kill you?"

"I... I'm just scared. You told me that Jiang Shaoqi and Wang Gui were killed this morning, so I had such an instinctive reaction." Liu Qingte hemmed and hewed as he explained.

"It's not a wise thing for you to hide something from us now." Zhou Tong obviously didn't believe Liu Qingte's excuse, so he continued to ask: "Let me ask you, where did you find that piece?" Talisman?"

Liu Qingte's face twitched, showing a look of fear.

"If you don't tell us the truth again, you will be the next one to die." Zhou Tong knew that Liu Qingte's psychological defense had been shaken, and as long as there was a little more pressure, he would tell the truth.

The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the moon emerged, shedding a piece of moonlight.

"I...we...are..." Sweat dripped from Liu Qingte's forehead, and at this moment, with a "bang", a figure suddenly broke through the window.

The whole thing was so sudden that Zhou Tong and Liu Qingte were unprepared.This strangely dressed guy, carrying a golden machete, went straight to Liu Qingte.

Seeing that Liu Qingte's head was about to be lost, Zhou Tong couldn't help but turn pale with fright.At this critical moment, a bunch of keys flew from nowhere, like a meteor hitting a rock, and hit the golden knife, only to hear a "Dang", the chopped golden knife turned sideways, and only Liu Qingte was cut off. Small locks of hair.A person flashed out of the door, it was Yan Yongjie.

Seeing Yan Yongjie arrived, Zhou Tong immediately felt relieved, and said with a smile, "Sister Yongjie came just in time!"

"Stop talking nonsense and acting on your own, I'll settle accounts with you later!" Yan Yongjie gave Zhou Tong a hard look, and then turned her gaze to the man carrying the golden knife.I saw him wearing a hat, a light blue robe, a black waistcoat, a long silk belt tied around his waist, two braided belts tied behind his waist, and a scented leather bag and a jade pendant.Yan Yongjie said in surprise: "Are you a Mongolian?!"

"I only want to kill him, and the rest leave immediately!" Although the Mongolian man spoke awkward Chinese, he raised the golden knife in his hand with a forceful aura.

"He...he is from Darghut, save me!" Liu Qingte was already scared out of his wits and hid behind Yan Yongjie.

Yan Yongjie couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard the words, the person in front of her seemed to come from ancient times, what era is it now, how could she say that if she wanted to kill someone, she would kill someone.

"Why did you kill him?" Zhou Tong asked with a smile beside him.

Hearing Zhou Tong's question, the Mongolian man seemed to arouse the hatred in his heart, and immediately became furious, glaring at Liu Qingte who was behind Yan Yongjie, without saying a word, he swung his knife and slashed at him like a thunderbolt.

Yan Yongjie felt that the matter was strange, and she was unwilling to use force rashly, but at the moment, she must not let this Mongol kill Liu Qingte.The golden saber was coming fiercely, she didn't dare to be careless, and immediately used her ancient fist to meet it.The knife is like a strong wind, and the fist is like a shower. The whole room is full of wind and rain for a while.

Zhou Tong and Liu Qingte squatted in the corner against the wall, not daring to vent their breath. Liu Qingte tried to sneak out the door several times, but Zhou Tong pulled him back.

The golden knife used by the Mongols is extremely strange, shaped like a crescent moon, with a thick back and a thin blade like a cicada's wing. Every time it is swung, it draws a golden light in the night sky, as if to split the surrounding space.

Yan Yongjie's ancient boxing technique is light and nimble, and he swings freely, with more than enough advance and retreat in the light of the sword, it is really unpredictable.

The Mongolian man didn't want to fight for a long time, so he yelled, completely ignoring Yan Yongjie's punch to the chest, and the golden knife struck from top to bottom.

Zhou Tong gasped, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Yan Yongjie also frowned, she didn't expect that the Mongolian man would use this kind of attack that hurts both sides, she threw out this punch with all her strength, it went like a flying arrow, and it was hard to take back, and the knife of the Mongolian man was also thunderous, overwhelming.Yan Yongjie didn't want to die with him, but it was too late to change her tactics, so she had to roll on the spot in a hurry, and rolled over under the crotch of the big Mongolian man.

How could the Mongolian man think that Yan Yongjie had such a trick? For him, he would rather die by the knife than get into the crotch of the enemy. To Yan Yongjie, this is really irrelevant.The Mongolian man had exhausted all his strength with this saber, and was unable to turn around and swing the saber for a moment, but Yan Yongjie walked around his back lightly.

The Mongolian man knew that the situation was not good, once he allowed Yan Yongjie behind him to heal his acupoints, he would have no choice but to catch him. Fortunately, he was facing the window, so in a hurry, he didn't care so much, he jumped out of the window and escaped.

Yan Yongjie wanted to chase him out, but when he went to the window, he saw that the Mongolian man had disappeared.

"Yong Jie, I think we should interrogate this kid first." Seeing the Mongolian man being beaten away by Yan Yongjie, Zhou Tong immediately relaxed.

"Liu Qingte, are you still not telling the truth?" Yan Yongjie turned around and asked.

Liu Qingte's forehead was already dripping with sweat, but he finally opened up the chatterbox.

It turned out that during an archaeological activity more than a year ago, Liu Qingte accidentally discovered an ancient book, which recorded some contents about Genghis Khan's tomb. According to these records, Liu Qingte found some clues about Genghis Khan's tomb , if you can find the seven talisman cards recorded in the book, you can know the exact location of the ancient tomb.But such a major discovery, not everyone will believe his statement. In order to prove the correctness of his theory, Liu Qingte applied for a study fund from the school in the name of Tibetan culture research.But his real purpose is to go to Inner Mongolia to find one of the symbols.His adventurous move also got the support of three classmates, Jiang Shaoqi, Wang Gui and Qin Mengyao.Four people secretly sneaked into Enhe Bayin of Prague Gacha (Village) in Huoluosumu (Township), Ejinhuoluo Banner, Ordos City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, where they stole sacred objects from the Eight White Room guarded by Darghuts Genghis Khan Talisman.After the Darghuts discovered that the sacred object was missing, they have been looking for it, and the Mongolian man who appeared just now is the golden sword warrior of the Darghuts.

Liu Qingte licked his lips when he said this.

"Where is the talisman you stole now?" Yan Yongjie asked.

"I don't know, otherwise I wouldn't come here to look for it at night. After I came back that time, because of the empirical evidence, I have been writing papers. Unexpectedly, someone stole the talisman. Not only did I lose my research As a result, he was expelled from the school." Liu Qingte said with a sigh.

"I think he really doesn't know where the talisman is now." Zhou Tong also believed that Liu Qingte was not lying, "Now that Jiang Shaoqi and Wang Gui are dead, if the murderer came for the talisman, then the only one now Maybe Qin Mengyao, who knows the whereabouts of the talisman, will be very dangerous."

"Do you think the Darghuts just killed Jiang Shaoqi and Wang Gui?" Liu Qingte asked tremblingly.

Zhou Tong gave Liu Qingte a funny look, and said, "It can't be him. The murderer is a guy who likes to play tricks, thinks himself right, and hides in the dark. He will never come out to kill so blatantly."

Yan Yongjie also nodded in agreement. "Qin Mengyao, I have already arranged for someone to protect her. We will go to her tomorrow morning to find out. I believe she can't keep hiding it in front of Liu Qingte." She suddenly seemed to remember something, Ask Zhou Tong: "Where did you get that talisman in your hand?"

"That's a long story." Zhou Tong wanted to show off.

Yan Yongjie snorted, and then said righteously: "You have to be careful, it's a national treasure!"

"Don't worry." Zhou Tong said and covered his pockets again.

"Can you take a closer look at that talisman?" Liu Qingte couldn't help but said.

Zhou Tong was a little hesitant when he heard the words. He was really afraid that if he broke or lost this talisman, he would not only become a sinner through the ages, but his life would not be enough to pay Li Ying.

But Yan Yongjie nodded to Zhou Tong, motioning him to show it to Liu Qingte.Like a stingy local rich man, Zhou Tong took out a talisman from his arms and handed it to Liu Qingte.

Liu Qingte took the talisman carefully, looked at it carefully, and after about ten minutes, he showed an excited look, and said: "Although it is not the talisman I got, this one is indeed seven yuan. One of the talisman cards, I have seen two of the seven talisman cards, and if you find the other five talisman cards, you can find the Genghis Khan Mausoleum!"

"What's the difference between my talisman and the Darghut talisman?" Zhou Tong asked curiously.

"The appearance of the two talismans is similar, but the pattern and the text on the back are quite different. Both sides of the two talismans have words written in Mongolian. The front is the same, and it says 'God's destiny, the emperor's decree , If you do not enshrine, you will not be punished." On the back of the Dalghut talisman, it is written "circling the sheep and jumping over the horse, diverting the road", and the text on the back of this talisman is "The Great Khan repaired the tomb, A lifetime and three days'." Liu Qingte explained with dancing while holding a talisman.

"What do the words on the back mean?" Yan Yongjie was puzzled by the difficult words on the back of the two talisman cards.

"I don't know now, maybe we have to find all seven talisman cards to solve the mystery." Liu Qingte said with some frustration.

"It seems that this case is not just a simple revenge murder. I need to go back to the special criminal investigation team immediately and report the situation to team leader Sun Yaoming." Yan Yongjie realized that if these murders were really related to Genghis Khan's mausoleum, then the case The issues involved are far more serious.

"What are you going to do with this kid?" Zhou Tong pointed at Liu Qingte.

"Take him with you!" Yan Yongjie said and handcuffed Liu Qingte.

"Alright, staying in the Public Security Bureau is the safest place for him." Zhou Tong took the talisman from Liu Qingte while smiling.

"The so-called crime of carrying a jade, you have to be more careful!" Yan Yongjie exhorted with concern.

Zhou Tong nodded cautiously.

Section 6 Kidnapping
The sun caressed lazily by the bed, and the breath of sleep condensed in the air. Zhou Tong covered the thin quilt and fell asleep soundly.After tossing around for most of the night last night, he was dreaming soundly at this time, and the students in the dormitory had all gone to class, but the mobile phone rang inexplicably.

Zhou Tong was awakened by the ringtone, and opened his eyes reluctantly. The ringtone rang again and again tirelessly, Zhou Tong finally gave up resisting and grabbed the phone helplessly.

"Who?" Zhou Tong asked angrily.

"Li Ying is here." A cold, strange and emotionless voice came from the phone.

"What?" Zhou Tong immediately sobered up a lot.

"Before 12:[-] noon, go to the abandoned factory in Shilihe in the suburbs alone, and take a talisman to replace someone. Don't tell anyone. I know your every move. If you don't do what I ask, come and collect the corpse!" The phone snapped hung up on.

Without even thinking about it, Zhou Tong immediately dialed Li Ying's number, but he couldn't get through.He ran to Yan Yongjie's apartment again, there was no one from Li Ying in the room, and Yan Yongjie was not there either.Li Ying was really kidnapped? !Zhou Tong immediately dialed Yan Yongjie's phone number. At this moment, the threat in the call echoed in his ears, and Zhou Tong put down the phone. He could not risk Li Ying's life.

Looking at his watch, it was less than two hours before 12 o'clock. If he didn't rush over, he might not be able to arrive in time.Zhou Tong quickly ran downstairs, using the method his father recorded in his notebook, he pried open a "Little Sheep", lit the fire, and sped off the gas, speeding away towards the outside of the school.

"Dad, you have a soul in heaven, but I used your method to steal a car to save people." Zhou Tong murmured silently in his heart.

The "Little Sheep" was galloping on the highway, more like a runaway wild horse, racing all the way.Zhou Tong finally arrived at the Shilihe abandoned factory at 11:55.

This abandoned factory was originally a state-owned machinery factory, and later went bankrupt due to poor management. The factory building was as big as a football field, standing in a pile of weeds, dilapidated and desolate.

At noon, it was the scorching sun, and the blinding sunlight almost made Zhou Tong unable to open his eyes.The outside of the factory is surrounded by barbed wire, and it looks more like a prison from the outside.Zhou Tong left the "little sheep", found a hole in the surrounding barbed wire, and got in.The scattered waste outside the factory cut off the sunlight, and the surroundings became a black and white world of light and dark.The iron door of the factory was open, and Zhou Tong pushed it in hard. There was a loud friction sound between the iron door and the ground, and there was no one in the empty factory building.

"Is anyone there? I'm coming!" Zhou Tong shouted loudly, but no one responded to him except Echo.

Zhou Tong didn't stop, and walked while observing the surrounding situation.

In addition to a few abandoned production lines in the factory building, there are old cartons of different sizes such as paper trays and tipping paper, as well as some abrasive tools, iron chains, steel bars and other messy things piled up on the ground.

When Zhou Tong walked to the middle of the factory building, a voice came from the loudspeaker in the corner of the factory building:
"You really keep your promise!" The voice was obviously processed, and it sounded a bit yin and yang.

"Where is Li Ying?" Zhou Tong couldn't see anyone, so he had to shout into the loudspeaker.

"You can see her soon, but you put the talisman on the conveyor belt of the production line first."

"Let me see her first!" Zhou Tong was no fool, he had to make sure Li Ying was safe first.

"Don't bargain with me, but your request is not too much, let you listen to her voice first." Li Ying's voice came from the loudspeaker immediately: "You bastard, shameless, don't be nice Damn, let me go..."

It was indeed Li Ying's voice, and she was the only one who could be so arrogant after being held hostage.

"Now do you believe it? If you don't want her to have trouble, put the talisman on the conveyor belt immediately."

Zhou Tong hesitated, after all, this talisman has a lot to do with it.

"I will never be soft-hearted when I kill people!" The other party threatened impatiently.

Zhou Tong thought of Jiang Shaoqi who had been dismembered, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly took out the talisman and put it on the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt started to move immediately.

"Can you give me the person now?" Zhou Tong called out.

"Go ahead, there is a small door, you can find her when you go in."

Zhou Tong ran forward without hesitation. Sure enough, beside a production line, he found a narrow door. Zhou Tong bent down and got in. Behind the door was a long and narrow corridor, so narrow that only one person could pass through, and it was pitch black. One piece seems to lead directly to the back of the factory building.Zhou Tong groped forward with difficulty, and when he reached the end, there was a faint light from above, and he could see a wooden ladder leading to a dark room under his feet.

"Li Ying, are you inside?" Zhou Tong leaned on the wooden ladder and called inside. In his heart, he was really scared, wondering if this might be a trap.

"Hmm... woo... woo..." There was a faltering voice inside, and it sounded like it was indeed Li Ying.

Zhou Tong no longer hesitated, grabbed the wooden ladder, and slowly climbed down.

Yan Yongjie had been busy all night. After returning from the special criminal investigation team, she wanted to go to Qin Mengyao's place to investigate the case with Zhou Tong, but she couldn't find him.

"What an irresponsible man!" Yan Yongjie cursed bitterly, but after the curse was over, she was still helpless.

After Qin Mengyao won the runner-up in the SHOW GIRL competition, due to his special status, he did not live in the school dormitory, but moved to a villa provided by the performing arts company.However, this villa is not far from the school. It takes 10 minutes to walk out of the school gate, which is also convenient for Qin Mengyao's school needs.

Qin Mengyao was not at school today, so Yan Yongjie found Qin Mengyao's villa.

The doorbell rang for a long time but no one came out to answer the door. Yan Yongjie pressed it again patiently. After a while, she finally saw Qin Mengyao walking out of the villa.

"Yan Yongjie? Did you come here to see me for something?" Qin Mengyao's voice was a little cold.

"Yes, counselor, I have something to ask you." Yan Yongjie didn't mean to continue to pretend to be a student in front of Qin Mengyao, but she didn't like to say loudly that she was a policeman at the door.
