Seven's secret

When the fish head came out of the grass for the first time, Xiao Qi was standing on the side of the road admiring the little white flower that he had never seen before.The second time when he saw Xiao Qi through the gap between the two trees, Xiao Qi was maintaining a posture of turning around and looking around, thinking about the meaning of what he said to him.Xiaoqi neither wrestled nor left them and ran away by himself, everything was normal, so Yutou boldly rushed into the grass in the forest.Spider-Man also said just now that he can catch snakes, and he wanted to catch a fat one and show it.Yutou was very annoyed by the little boy's showing off, isn't it just to catch snakes, who wouldn't, hum.

The two little guys scrambled in the grass, but the snake didn't catch it, and got themselves covered in dirt.The air in the mountains is fresh, and both the vegetation and the soil have a peculiar fragrance, and there is also a kind of fat snail, which Spiderman eats happily, and recommends it to Yutou.Yutou was not very interested in these odds and ends. He used his claws to pull the snail to roll around on the ground for a while, then looked up and found that Xiaoqi was gone.

Yutou froze for a moment, then hurriedly ran out of the woods.There are still footprints where Xiaoqi looked at the flowers just now.Fish head raised his nose and smelled it, the air was full of sweet and greasy floral scent, not the light tea-like scent on Xiao Qi.

The fish head flicked its tail and turned around twice in a daze.

This is halfway up the hillside. Standing here and looking up, the mountain road is completely blocked by thick branches, and nothing can be seen.But when looking down the mountain, the view is very wide. There is no Xiaoqi on the road from where it stands to the big yard where they live. Dried vegetables are put into bamboo baskets.

Xiaoqi couldn't have walked so fast, and returned to the compound in the blink of an eye.Yutou thought to himself, there are only two roads here, one goes up the mountain and the other goes down. Since he didn't go down the mountain, he must be going up the mountain.

After confirming the direction, Yutou began to search up the mountain road, while searching, he was still thinking to himself: Where did Xiao Qi go?It can't be that he went to catch mice, Xiaoqi doesn't like to eat that.Or just hide in some corner to relieve his hand?A lot of men do this, thinking that no one will see them, so they will do it everywhere.But I didn't find that Xiao Qi had such a hobby of being in the wild before. Could it be that he drank too much fish soup at dinner and couldn't hold it back now, so he didn't pay attention?

Yutou ran up a tree, stood on the branch, looked around, and yelled, "Meow~"

A gust of mountain wind blew by, rustling the branches and leaves overhead.Spider-Man chased after him, raised his upper body and asked it inexplicably, "Boss Fishhead, what are you doing?"

Yutou was already a little anxious, "Didn't you notice that Xiao Qi is missing?"

"Xiao Qi?" Spider-Man looked around and yelled belatedly, "Oh, why did Xiao Qi run away by himself and didn't call us. I also left him two of the fattest snails .”

"Shut up!" Yutou became irritable, "When did Xiao Qi leave us behind? Even if he wanted to leave, he would definitely call us, and he would definitely not go away without making a sound. Something must have happened It's time..." Yutou murmured to himself while looking around, "Isn't it because he ate too much dinner that made him faint?"

Spiderman is too small to see anything in the grass nest. Hearing Yutou's search, he quickly got out of the grass nest and climbed to the mountain road shaking his body covered in dirt and grass clippings.

"It smells like Xiaoqi here." Spiderman shrugged his nose, "He must have been here just now."

Yutou looked at him dubiously, "Can you smell it?"

Spider-Man suddenly became angry, "When we were in the wild, we had to find food by ourselves!"

Yutou didn't really believe in this gadget, but his sense of smell was affected by the scent of flowers, and Xiao Qi couldn't smell it at all.Since Spider-Man said that he smelled it, he has no other good solution, and he can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor, "then you should find it quickly. It's getting dark, the old man in the compound said something It will be dangerous in the mountains at night, there may be wild boars and wolves."

Spider-Man lay on the dirt road and kept shrugging his nose, while muttering: "It seems to be going this way..."

The fish head frantically wagged its tail and followed it, urging it, "Hurry up, hurry up, can you do it..."

The further he walked into the mountains, the more frightened Yutou became. How could Xiao Qi come so far away without making a sound?Could something be wrong?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Spider-Man shouting joyfully, "Oh, it's Xiao Qi's thing!"

In a clump of tangled weeds, Xiao Qi's cell phone lay quietly.

Yutou pressed Spider-Man's pointed nose and shouted, "Don't go there!"

Spiderman scratched his arms and legs, "...what are you doing?!"

"Don't touch it!" Yutou pushed Spider-Man back, "Xiao Qi has an accident, we have to find a way to tell the people in the yard!"

When Pei Rong knew that Xiao Qi was gone, he went crazy.Holding the mobile phone, he didn't care about the fact that he was sitting in the office for a meeting, and asked He Mao angrily, "Why did he disappear suddenly?! How far can he go for a walk? He can't fly...why?" Is he going out alone?!"

Everyone in the office was startled by his loud voice, and they looked at each other. It was Captain Gao Ming who caught the point, "Missing? Young man? Where is it?"

The case they were working on made them especially sensitive to the word "disappearance."Pei Rong listened to He Mao's ramblings on the phone, as well as his colleagues' discussions about "why is someone missing again" and "won't it be the same case", and felt that the calmness he had always been proud of was about to shatter into pieces. Scumbag.

"Did you call the police? You guard the scene," Pei Rong grabbed the key on the table and ran out, "I'll go there right away!"

Gao Ming grabbed him, "Where?"

"Shuiyan Pond, Qingliu Village." Pei Rong wanted to shake off his hand, but seeing Gao Ming's serious face, he forcibly held back, "The mountains in that area are all branches of Lianhua Mountain."

"Tell your friend to call the police." Although Gao Ming didn't know who Pei Rong was who caused the accident, seeing how anxious he was, the relationship must be very close. At this time, he couldn't just ignore him anyway, "Go and cooperate. The local police check the scene, and if there is any evidence that the case in our hands is..." He glanced at Pei Rong's face, swallowed back the words tactfully, and said, "Call me, I will apply and case."

Pei Rong nodded and ran out.As his senior partner, Meng Ke chased after him with his hastily packed computer bag.While chasing and thinking, Deputy Captain Pei would have this kind of reaction... Needless to say, something must have happened to Mr. Murong.

Xiao Qi felt as if she had sunk into a sticky and long nightmare, everywhere was dark, and she couldn't see anything, except for the vague crying sound coming from far away.It was a woman's voice, suppressing pain and despair, as if desperately enduring but still unable to suppress the fear that had penetrated into the deepest part of the soul.

Then Xiao Qi realized that the cry was not far away, but was getting closer and closer, buzzing in his ears.He struggled to open his eyes, in the darkness, only a dim yellow light bulb was on above his head.There was a strong earthy smell from the end of the nose and a... a stench that made people want to vomit.

Xiaoqi shuddered and woke up.

It turned out that the cry was not the voice in the nightmare, but it was close at hand.The woman was curled up on the ground not far away, her whole body was tied up with ropes, her face was black and white from crying.She was immersed in her own sorrow, but she didn't realize that Xiao Qi had woken up and was secretly looking at her.

Xiao Qi was not sure what this place was, like a cave... Xiao Qi's gaze slowly slid around the place where he lay down, and then moved along a wooden ladder erected in the corner to the dark hole above.No, not a cave, but a cellar or something.The houses in the northern countryside basically have cellars. When Xiao Qi was in Murong's old house, he also helped Aunt Shito move things into the cellar.However, the cellar of Murong's family is carefully repaired and has a large space.It's not as simple as the cellar right now.

The area of ​​this cellar is less than twenty square meters, and the ground and walls are still well maintained in the state it was just dug out.In order to keep out the moisture, a layer of hay was spread on the ground, and he and the crying woman sat on the haystack.Beside the woman is a bucket with a board pressed against it.And in the corner farthest from them was a... freezer.

The freezer with a gray and white shell was facing them, and there were two chubby dolphins painted on it.However, seeing such a thing in such a place, Xiao Qi felt a creepy feeling.

"Don't look!" The woman's voice was slightly hoarse, implying fear, "Don't look at that dirty thing!"

Xiaoqi withdrew her gaze and looked her up and down.This should be a young girl, very thin and dirty, with disheveled hair and crooked clothes, as if she didn't put them on herself, but someone else put them on her impatiently Same.The buttons of the coat were all wrongly buttoned, and the neckline was opened, revealing the crumpled floral shirt inside.

For some reason, Xiao Qi felt that this girl looked familiar.

"Where is this...?" Xiao Qi heard that her voice was also a little hoarse, as if she lacked water.

The girl shook her head, "I don't know either."

Xiao Qi thought about his situation. He is a big man with a height of nearly 1.8 meters, and his weight is at least one hundred and thirty. Although that man looks stronger than himself, he has to walk a long way with such a big man on his shoulders. It would be impossible, or at least risky, to go unnoticed.So the place where he is now must not be far from the hillside where he saw flowers.

Qingliu Village is not big, and everyone in a village knows almost everyone, so Uncle Changsheng must also know the young man who brought him back after knocking him out.Xiao Qi shook his sore neck, and the sudden dull pain from a palm slash persisted on his neck.Because my hands and feet were bound and I couldn't rub them, it was even more uncomfortable.

"Neck pain?" The girl looked at him sympathetically, "I was also caught by his palm. There was no one at the south gate of the school..."

"School?!" Suddenly, Xiao Qi understood something, "You are Cao Lin?!"
