    After leaving the farmhouse, the two of us walked around the village again, wanting to see if there was anything suspicious in the village.

    Without the guidance of the old village chief, this time we wandered around the village at will, choosing the path that the village chief had not taken us before. Although we still found nothing along the way, we unexpectedly found a village in the end.  ancestral hall.

    At that time, we didn¡¯t know that this building was an ancestral hall. We just felt that its appearance was very different from other buildings around it, so we were a little curious and walked around outside. Just when we were wondering if we could go in and have a look, an old man came from  He came out and asked us what we wanted to do.

    After asking around with the old man, we found out that this building was the only ancestral hall in the village, and it contained the ancestral tablets of every household in the village.  And this old man is the gatekeeper of this ancestral hall.

    Out of curiosity, I tentatively asked the old man if I could go in and visit. Unexpectedly, the old man immediately nodded in agreement.

    After entering the ancestral hall, we looked carefully inside and out.  While inspecting the ancestral hall, the old man also introduced the origin of the ancestral hall.

    He told us that the people in their village were descendants of a generation of refugees who fled from Jiangxi to escape the scourge of war.  Although they now live in stilt houses that are common among local people because they followed the local customs, the people in the village still insist on using the original architectural style from Jiangxi except for the places where ancestors' tablets are enshrined.

    After walking around the ancestral hall, we didn¡¯t find anything wrong.  But just when we were about to leave, I heard Lin Qianyi suddenly turned around and looked at the wall of memorial tablets in the main hall of the ancestral hall, and asked the old man a little strangely: "Grandpa, there is something I don't quite understand. You said you are all  I fled here a hundred or two hundred years ago, but why are there not many tablets in the ancestral hall? I have seen some ancestral halls of some big families in Guangdong before, and the tablets they have inherited and accumulated over just a hundred years are much smaller than yours.  A lot more.¡±

    "This" The old man was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "This is because the population in our village has never been prosperous. It's probably because everything has its pros and cons. Although the environment in our village is good and it's easy to have birthday stars, but  But it¡¯s not easy for women living in the village to get pregnant.¡±

    "Is there such a thing?" I asked curiously, "Is there some source of pollution in the village? Didn't you ask anyone to come and check it?"

    The old man sighed and said, "Why not? Some university professors once heard that we were a longevity village and came here to study it for a while, but in the end they found nothing at all."

    I said "Oh" and walked around the ancestral hall a few times with Lin Qianyi. Except for the tablet wall, which was surrounded by a wooden fence and couldn't get close, we looked carefully at other places.  , and didn't find anything we wanted to see, so we reluctantly said goodbye to the old man and walked out of the ancestral hall.

    After coming out, Lin Qianyi asked me, we basically looked at all the places we should see in the village, but found nothing at all, and we didn¡¯t know what to do next.

    I was at a loss for the current situation. When I was at my wits' end, I suddenly saw a tourist passing by me, and an idea came to my mind. I suggested to Lin Qianyi to find the tourists in the village and ask.  Ask them if they know anything about Mr. Xu and his wife?  This village is not big. Among the tourists here, you should have seen Mr. Xu and his wife.

    Because apart from this, I could no longer think of any other good investigation directions, so Lin Qianyi accepted my proposal.  We walked around the town and saw some tourists who didn't look like villagers, so we went up and asked them if they had heard of Mr. Xu.

    However, after all, what happened to Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu happened a week ago. This village is not a large tourist attraction. Basically, there are no tourists staying here for a week, so we asked along the way.  I didn't get any useful information at all.

    Just when I was feeling a little discouraged, I suddenly noticed a very familiar-looking figure at the bottom of a stilted building in front of me.

    Seeing that figure from behind, I immediately patted Lin Qianyi and said, "Sister Lin, you won't believe who I saw?"

    "Who is it?" Lin Qianyi turned around and asked me.

    ¡°Wu Tian, ??Director of the Intelligence Department!¡±

    "Uncle Wu?" Lin Qianyi's eyes suddenly widened, "How could he be here? Where did you see him?"

    "It's right there" I just wanted to point out the direction to Lin Qianyi, but my fingers suddenly froze in mid-air, because just when I was talking to Lin QianyiIn an instant, the familiar figure disappeared.

    Lin Qianyi looked around and found nothing, then said to me: "Sijiu, did you see it wrong?"

    I shook my head and affirmed: "You can't be wrong. The back I saw just now, from hairstyle to height, looks exactly like Wu Tian."

    "But Uncle Wu is still in Donghai? Besides, how could he, the director of the Intelligence Department, come to this place?"

    I thought about it and felt that what Lin Qianyi said made sense, but the back view just now was like a fish bone stuck in my heart. I felt uncomfortable until I understood it.

    So I took out the satellite phone from my bag and called San Pang.

    On the phone, I asked San Pang if he knew where Wu Tian was?  He said to me inexplicably: "Wu Tian? Please, I am no longer from the Intelligence Department. Why are you asking me this?"

    I asked Sanpang not to worry so much and to check for me if Wu Tian had taken leave recently?  I have something urgent to confirm.

    After hearing this, the third fat man insisted that I tell him the reason first.  I had no choice but to tell him that I seemed to see the shadow of Wu Tian in that longevity village.

    Hearing the news, San Pang immediately became interested. He asked me to wait for a while and then hung up the phone.

    Almost a few minutes later, Sanpang's call came back. As soon as I answered the call, Sanpang told me very excitedly: "Hey, boy, you really got it right. The people in the Intelligence Department said, Wu  Tian recently took leave and went out, and I don¡¯t know where he went. Anyway, no one has news about him now!¡±

    After hearing the news, I finally put my heart back in my stomach, thinking that if this was the case, then the background I just saw was probably Wu Tian himself. It was just Wu Tian, ??the director of the Intelligence Department, how could he suddenly become so big?  Come all the way from the East China Sea to us?

    On the other end of the phone, the third fat man was still asking me if I saw what Wu Tian was doing?  Because I wanted to find Wu Tian's whereabouts as soon as possible, I said a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone in a hurry, regardless of whether the third fat man was still complaining on the phone.

    At this time, Lin Qianyi, who had listened to the entire conversation, also looked curious. She asked strangely: "Why did Uncle Wu come here? Could it be that he is traveling?"

    I shrugged and said, who knows?  But since Wu Tian himself is here, we should all say hello to him out of emotion and reason. And there is another thought in my mind, that is, as the director of the Intelligence Department, Wu Tian is well-informed.  Maybe we can get some useful advice related to this incident from him.

    After saying that, the two of us looked in the direction where I saw Wu Tian¡¯s back just now.  What disappoints us is that when we arrived near the stilted building, we didn't see anyone who looked like Wu Tian around.

    Even so, I thought to myself that this village is not big. If Wu Tianzhen is really here, I will definitely be able to find him as long as I search patiently.  So he took Lin Qianyi and continued to search all the way.

    As I walked, I saw an old man sitting in front of his stilted building, smoking a hookah leisurely.  I saw that the old man was facing the road, and pedestrians coming and going would come into his sight, so I stepped forward to ask him if he had seen Wu Tian.

    Who would have thought that after asking about it, the old man told us that no stranger like Wu Tian had passed by him just now.

    I sighed in disappointment and was about to go back and tell Lin Qianyi the news when I accidentally saw a man leaning out from behind the wall at a corner a hundred or two hundred meters behind Lin Qianyi.  Look at Lin Qianyi.  That person looked familiar to me, and I felt like I had seen him somewhere before, but I couldn't remember. But what was certain was that that person was not the Wu Tian we were looking for.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
