Chapter 609: Wild Mountains (8)

When Wei Chi returned to the room, he was holding a sachet in his hand. It was made of blue and white tie-dyed fabric with rough stitching, and was not as delicate as the intangible cultural heritage Miao embroidery that the girl had given him before.

With the good one as a comparison, my colleague looked at it from left to right with a slightly disdainful expression: "Who gave this to me? It's so ugly, no one would even look at it if it cost five dollars."

No one would look at it for five dollars, but he bought it for five thousand.

Wei Chi already felt like a big complainer and regretted spending the money: "..."

With a sullen face, he snatched the sachet and put it in his pocket: "I bought it to keep out insects."

He was just afraid of insect bites, and he didn't think what the boss said made sense.

Thinking of that boss...

Wei Chi took a deep breath.

ugly!!

Black shop! !

Not even one ten-thousandth of a baby's.

When the group of people came back after burying the bodies, they found that Jiang Que was selling insect repellent sachets for five thousand each.

Robbery in broad daylight.

They are afraid of death and dare not not buy it.

They had just buried the body, and the man...had died a horrible death.

They are not poor, they just don't want to be taken advantage of.

Now it seems that money is not as important as life.

It's important to save your life.

Most of the sachets Jiang Que took out were sold quickly.

Some people are waiting and watching, thinking that it is unnecessary because no one has tried the medicine and it is guaranteed not to work. If it doesn't work, the money will be wasted.

At worst, just don’t go out at night.

Jiang Que had no objection.

Anyway, it wasn't him who died.

Wei Chi used a green letter to pass on the news of the death in the inn.

But it has been raining intermittently in the past two days, and landslides are still continuing in some places, making it difficult for the rescue team to carry out rescue operations.

Because the exact location of Wei Chi and the others was uncertain, no one dared to estimate how long it would take, so they could only let them wait.

but……

I heard from colleagues who came to participate in the rescue that they dug up a lot of bodies yesterday. They were all very young, and judging by their clothes, they were not locals, but tourists who came here to explore.

Wei Chi watched the short rescue video sent by the other party. The rescuers were desperately digging the person who had no breath out from the mud.

A very young guy, carrying a mountaineering bag on his back.

And that hiking bag...

Wei Chi sat up straight suddenly, paused and zoomed in on the video, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't relax for a long time.

this person……

He has seen it.

On their first night at the tavern.

This person, like everyone else, slept in a booth in the bar because the room was too expensive.

Then the next morning, they all disappeared along with those who did not choose to stay overnight.

There were a lot of people there before, and Wei Chi didn’t see many faces, so he didn’t think much about it.

Now that I think about it, it seems like everyone who spent the night outside never showed up again.

Just like the man who died today, he went out in the middle of the night and died in front of the pub.

The disappeared people will appear at the landslide site.

Wei Chi is a staunch materialist.

But his mind was a little confused now. He felt that he had not rested enough and was overthinking.

Perhaps these people left on their own and met with unexpected consequences.

But if it is a few days later, and someone outside digs up the body buried today...

Wei Chi took a deep breath.

I hope I am overthinking it.

In the evening, Wei Chi went downstairs to order food.

Because he arrived late, Jiang Que was already packing up and getting ready to leave work.

Seeing someone coming from the backyard, she raised her eyes, glanced at him, and turned the pen in her hand.

"There's only noodles, eat or not."

Wei Chi nodded: "Three bowls, how much?"

"Four hundred and eighty."

Wei Chi rolled his hands and before he could say anything, he heard the man say, "One bowl."

"..."

Shocked at the price of this bowl of noodles.

But Wei Chi did not argue with the boss about the price increase. He quietly took out his mobile phone to pay, and mentally made a note of this unscrupulous businessman.

After paying the money, we didn't talk to each other and just waited for the kitchen.

It wasn't until the intercom came on that Jiang Que turned around and went to the window to get the noodles and handed them to Wei Chi.

"Take the bowl down tomorrow. It will be darker and the dew will be heavier. Be careful... don't go out."

The transaction was completed. The man spoke softly, which seemed eerily soft with his cold eyes.

Wei Chi took the tray, and when the man let go, his fingers gently brushed across Wei Chi's fingertips.

Wei Chi was startled and almost let go.

The man didn't seem to realize that he had bumped into him. After settling the bill at the front desk, he went upstairs.

Wei Chi watched his back as he went up the stairs. He felt very uncomfortable when this man accidentally touched his hand. He pulled his hand away and wiped it on his clothes in disgust.

After wiping it, he took the noodles back.
