C24 New Clues

Xu Lai quietly put down the cigarette in his hand and calmly looked at the illustration in the document in his hand. It was just an ordinary illustration. There was a picture on it. It should be when Feng Tao was young. There were two little girls in the picture. On the left side was Feng Tao, and on the right side was Lin Xin Xin.

At that time, Lin Xinxin had a smile on her face. She looked cute and innocent. She looked completely different from before.

At that time, although Feng Tao had a smile on her face and a smile on her face, there was a trace of worry in her eyes. It was as if her eyes didn't have the innocence of a child. On the contrary, they had the worry of an adult, as if she was worried about something.

Or perhaps, it could be said that she was afraid.

Xu Lai hurriedly took out the picture and flipped it over. There was a line of words written on the back.

A photo of the Dongshan Village.

Xu Lai frowned. He waved at the director and asked, "Director, where is this Dongshan Village?"

The director seemed to know a lot about the Feng family. He quickly explained. "Oh, Feng Sheng, the head of the Feng family, saw his granddaughter in private. They went to the Dongshan Village for a vacation."

"Is there any beautiful scenery around the Dongshan Village?" Wang Yao asked.

"It's strange. There is no beautiful scenery there," Wang Yao said. "The head of the Feng family and I knew each other since we were young. At that time, I was in charge of giving him directions. The Dongshan Village is a remote place. Most people don't know about it," Wang Yao said.

"Oh, I see," Wang Yao said.

Xu Lai's expression returned to normal. He looked away.

"Why do you want to go to the east mountain village?"

Xu Lai muttered in his heart.

Not long after, Lee Fei walked in, panting.

"Lee Fei, didn't you go to investigate the streets and alleys? Why are you looking like this?"

Lee Fei sighed and shrugged helplessly.

"Sigh, don't mention it. I just asked some of the neighbors and they seemed to be very cold to Feng Taos and her family. They said they didn't know anything and this case was already dismissed before it even started. What should we do?"

Xu Lai narrowed his eyes. He could faintly feel that this matter was related to the devil. If he wanted to investigate this matter, he had to find the starting point of all this, which was the origin of everything that had happened. Feng Taotao's disappearance was definitely not that simple, and it definitely didn't happen all of a sudden.

Xu Lai now felt that all of this seemed to be filled with conspiracy.

"Let's go to the Eastern Mountain Village."

Xu Lai suddenly said.

"Why?"

Lee Fei was a little confused. Xu Lai directly handed her the picture and told her what he was thinking.

"Look at this village. This is the village Feng Sheng brought his granddaughter and Lin Xinxin to. The head of the Feng family, the helmsman, actually brought his granddaughter to such a remote village. Isn't it strange?"

Lee Fei nodded her head in agreement.

Not long after.

In the remote mountain village of Loongkou City, the remote mountain roads were full of rocks and mud. This was a place that was not heavily developed and was filled with the culture of the countryside. This was because the mountain village was in the middle of the mountains and was surrounded by small hills and lush green forests. There were even a few Taoist temples in the surroundings.

"This place is not bad."

Xu Lai lit a cigarette quietly and looked around.

The two of them entered the village along the mountain road. There were not many people coming and going in such a closed mountain village. Xu Lai and Lee Fei who came today obviously attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Aiyo, outsiders, what are you guys here for? Are you looking for people or Taoist priests?"

The two of them had only walked a few steps into the village when an arrogant voice came from not far away. Xu Lai narrowed his eyes and looked at the person who slowly walked over. He had red hair and was wearing a non-mainstream leather jacket from the 1980s. He was wearing bell-bottomed pants and leather shoes. He was dressed in a somewhat strange manner.

Lee Fei was about to answer, but Xu Lai was ahead of her.

"Hello, little brother. We are here to find Taoist."

Xu Lai had already sensed something wrong with this village from the way this kid spoke. He asked this clearly indicating that there were people who came on normal days. And those people were looking for Daoist priests in such a remote place. Daoist priests? Although Xu Lai did not know who it was, he must have some skills.

In a situation where he did not know who the other party was, Xu Lai decided to follow the other party's words.

If he could find out anything, it would be even better.

Lee Fei was a little slow to react, but she was not a fool. When she heard Xu Lai's words, she naturally hugged Xu Lai's arm and looked at him with a smile. "My boyfriend and I heard that the Taoists here are very intelligent, so we came to take a look."

Xu Lai glanced at Lee Fei. This girl's brain was pretty quick.

The young man opposite her stared at Lee Fei. A trace of lust flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up. He replied with a smile, "Our Taoist priests are famous for their effectiveness. You are right to come, but our Taoist priests are mostly meditating. Come to my house and have a seat. I will bring you up the mountain later."

Xu Lai gave the young man a deep look and exchanged a look with Lee Fei. The two of them followed each other to a small courtyard in the village.

"You two stay here for a while. I'll pour you a cup of tea."

The young man's attitude was very good. He invited the two of them in and out of the house. Xu Lai looked around and then said in a soft voice, "There is no pot in the house. There is no firewood in the house."

Lee Fei was shocked when she heard Xu Lai's words. She was about to stand up when Xu Lai pressed her shoulder and whispered something in her ear.

Not long after.

The young man came in with two cups of tea.

Xu thanked him and suddenly pointed at the mountain outside the window. "What's the name of that mountain?"

The young man looked in the direction Xu Lai was pointing and explained the origin and name of the mountain. However, he did not know that in less than three seconds when his eyes moved, Xu Lai flipped his right hand and nine golden needles flashed. They were instantly inserted into the two cups of tea. Sure enough, the color of the golden needles dimmed in less than a second.

Xu Lai revealed a faint smile. With the golden needles, he could detoxify and release the poison. It could even be said that he could kill without being noticed.

However, he was very curious about the situation inside, so he didn't plan to do anything. He only wanted to detoxify the tea poison.

The young man said spittle flew everywhere. Xu Lai smiled and quietly took a cup of tea. He even handed a cup to Lee Fei and drank it in front of the young man.

When the young man saw Xu Lai drink the whole cup of tea without any defense, he couldn't help but reveal a strange smile. He really didn't expect the man in front of him to be so unguarded. When he saw the young man drink the poisoned tea, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Brother, I didn't expect you to be so stupid. I want to have a good taste of your girlfriend."

"What did you say?" Xu Lai pretended to be angry. Then he covered his forehead and pretended to be unconscious. Lee Fei cooperated and fell to the ground.

"Hahahaha, these two idiots! Don't you guys know that our Dongshan Village has another name called Man-Eating Village? If you come to our village, you can either make a fortune or leave people behind!"

The young man snorted. Soon, three or four strong men came out of nowhere. They were all led by the young man.

"Boss, what are they going to do?"

"Humph, what are they going to do? " Men, send them to the Taoist temple. Women, send them to my bed. "

The young man revealed a sinister smile and ordered a few burly men to work. He kept looking at Lee Fei from head to toe. When he thought about how he could have sex with such a beautiful woman at night, he could not help but be delighted. Although it was only one night, he could not help but be happy. After all, he still had to send this woman to the Taoist temple the next day, but it was already good enough that he could enjoy it.

The young man sat on a chair and tilted his head in a lascivious manner.

However, with three banging sounds, the three burly men's figures were already lying on the ground with distorted expressions. They had shockingly lost their combat strength. As for the young man who was lying on the ground earlier, he had already sat up and was sizing him up with interest.

"Ah, you!"

The young man's face was filled with astonishment. Just as he was about to say something, a hand had already grabbed his neck at lightning speed!

The young man was immediately unable to catch his breath as he struggled with all his might. Unfortunately, that hand was like a pair of pliers made of iron, firmly locking onto his neck.

Looking at the young man's flushed face, Xu Lai stared at him expressionlessly. His tone was cold.

"Now I will ask. You answer. If you answer wrongly, you can go to hell and wait to see your Taoist priest."
