The surroundings were as quiet as ever, and it was only at this time that I found the impression of this person in a corner of my memory.
Indeed, I met him in the village of Banai, and even just a few days ago, he followed the leading hunter to my residence and questioned me about my affairs.
But it was too short-lived, and this guy stood in the corner without saying a word, so I had a very weak impression of him. In addition, his current attire changed, and it became even less impressive.
After all, Xiuxiu had spent dozens of hours with those hunters, so she was naturally more familiar with them.
But why is he lying here?
While thinking about it, I reached out my hand to feel his breath and pulse.
As expected, the result was that he had died long ago, with no signs of life at all.
"The hand under the slumped shoulder? But why do you want to kill him? No, what is this hunter doing in this forest?", I said to myself.
"Brother Wu Xie, do you still want to think about this? I am an undercover agent. Now he has been silenced and has become a lonely ghost." Xiuxiu said from the side.
"Undercover? An undercover arranged by a slumped shoulder? He has not walked out of this mountain for 180 years, how can he recruit an undercover?", I laughed at Xiuxiu, obviously she is still a little girl who talks nonsense without any evidence. .
I looked at Xiuxiu and then ignored him. After raising my hands to the short-lived man, I started searching on him. I hoped to find something on him, even a diary. , or whatever, maybe, I can solve some puzzles.
Every pocket of his clothes disappointed me, and his pants were no exception. I even had the urge to pull off his shoes and socks to see what was going on.
At this time, Xiuxiu was not looking at anything, but was scanning the surroundings very alertly.
The final result ended with me giving up. The dead body on the ground was indeed of no value to us.
"Brother Wu Xie, can you please stop messing around?" Xiuxiu said to me from the side.
"Don't you want to know his identity?", I asked Xiuxiu.
"If that ghost-like person can really scare you to this extent, think about what else he will let you find? Look at his jacket pockets. They are turned out, which means that someone has been searching for him for a long time. It’s over, stupid!” Xiuxiu said to me, intentionally biting the last word very hard.
The next Xiuxiu suddenly smiled and said to me, "But he is not completely worthless. At least the corpse will no longer panic in this game. You might as well take a look at where his fatal injuries are, and maybe you can help." You can tell what level of enemy your opponent is," Xiu Xiu said calmly.
This reminds me, to be honest, I have never seen the real skill of Slumping Shoulders. I am very glad that I have never had such an opportunity, because I always have a vague feeling that he is very difficult to deal with. .
I turned around and looked at the body again, carefully identifying the wounds, but surprisingly, except for a few scratches from thorn leaves, not even a drop of blood was seen on the body.
Xiuxiu also noticed this at this time and said: "Don't look at it, the shape of his head tells us that his neck may have been twisted."
I immediately reached over, and sure enough, I turned the corpse's head 45 degrees with almost no effort.
I looked around again. The surrounding short grass roads were at least as wide as a liberation truck, but there was no sign of a fight at all.
The corpse was that of a hunter. He was very strong, but his head and neck could be broken easily without any trace of a struggle. His slumped shoulders were truly astonishing.
"Do you think it was the ghost man who did it?" Xiuxiu suddenly asked me.
"Who else could be there besides him? In such a big forest, no other person would have walked through here beforehand. The probability is too low that we could just happen to meet him. I think this is impossible." I Said Xiuxiu.
"Brother Wu Xie, if that ghost-faced man has never walked out of here for many years as you said, then I think the person who killed this person must not be the ghost-faced man." What Xiu Xiu said made me confused, wasn't it? But who could he be?
"That man with a grimace has not left here for many years, but the one being silenced in front of him is a master who needs to be won over and seduced to cooperate. Think about it, could he be a man with a grimace?", Xiu Xiu continued.
"No, as far as I know, Guiying has interactions with the outside world, such as Agui and Yuncai. I can guarantee that their deaths are all actions of Guiying to silence them. From this point of view, this A person's death can also be the work of ghosts," I said to Xiuxiu.
When Xiuxiu heard this, she asked: "What you said makes me feel that he can be the village chief. Haha, a well-known public figure? How dare you think about it."
"Okay, leave him alone... Huh?" Xiuxiu tried to pull me away from here, but her eyes seemed to be attracted by something in the short grass on the ground.
Immediately, she leaned down and seemed to pick something up with her hands on the ground, and stood there and looked at it.
While I was still squatting on the ground, I naturally leaned my head towards him out of curiosity.
Between Xiuxiu's fingers, there is a metal oval-shaped object. Judging from the pin on its back, it seems to be a wearable badge.
At this time, one side of the pattern had a pretty face, but I could only look at its back suspiciously.
The thing seemed to have some age. The material was very similar to copper and had been somewhat oxidized. The oval surface was buckled on the back of the thing, forming a pyramid-like shape.
There are some strange lines on the surface of the back, which look like fish scales, and in the middle of the area covered by the pin, there is a fish eye clearly engraved on it.
This thing is made very carefully. In terms of texture and craftsmanship, it does not look like a forged product, but more like handmade.
"Brother Wu Xie, look at this thing, it's so strange." Xiuxiu said to me with a frown while carefully handing the thing in her hand to me.
I looked at her expression and took the thing.
At the first moment, I was sure that my guess was correct. It was indeed a dated badge, about the size of a fingertip. It was of high quality and was a bit heavy. It didn’t seem to be copper. Could it still be made of gold?
I had already looked at the back of the badge carefully enough, so I looked at the front of the badge carefully with such doubts.
The front pattern of the badge is also called carving. The knife work is very sharp and makes people feel soft when looking at it.
But I don’t know where the feeling comes from. I always feel that the pattern seems familiar to me.
In a space about the size of the belly of your thumb, two fish-like things are clearly engraved. Sideways, they are carrying a giant Chinese watch that towers into the sky and penetrates into the clouds. The sun on the top shimmers around the surroundings, which is quite auspicious. .
It was also the preconception that I felt familiar with, so I took a closer look at the two fish.
This is an extraordinary sight. The outline of the fish looks very much like the snake-browed copper fish I own.
Looking carefully at the other patterns from here, my heart suddenly became turbulent. I had seen the combination of those patterns before, and I remembered them so vividly that I almost lost my life because of them.
Isn't that the strange "huabiao" pattern I saw in the cellar behind my third uncle's old house? Why is it on this badge?
Suddenly, an ominous, even terrifying premonition came to my mind, and forced me to immediately say to Xiuxiu: "Xiuxiu, let's get out of here quickly."
