The scene was quite chaotic at that time. After the man finished speaking, several people echoed him, saying that their children had gone somewhere.
The group of people were chatting in unison, leaving the police officer confused. Later, he shouted to you to wait a moment and stop making noise. Then he walked up to the woman who wanted to report the crime and asked her: "Who is your child?"
When did you disappear?"
The woman said it was this morning. She got up and made breakfast and wanted to get her child up to eat. But as soon as she entered the house, she found that the child was gone. She searched around the village and couldn't find it.
Seeing that she was so anxious, tears fell down while she was talking. There were people beside her who were adding fuel to the fire, asking whether the child could run away on his own and run away into the reservoir. Let's go and fish it out quickly.
This sentence directly told the woman that she collapsed. She knelt down in front of the police officer and cried out to him to save her child. Her child was only five years old this year.
The police officer told her not to get too excited and that they would help her search for a while. Then he asked the people who had just spoken: "When did you find out?"
An old lady said she had discovered it in the morning, but her grandson was always active and always running around in the village, so she didn't take it seriously. But when she heard the woman say she wanted to call the police just now, she felt something was wrong.
Another man said that he noticed something was wrong with his son last night. He kept mumbling that a little girl wanted to go out to play with him. He didn't let him go out because it was too late. He also discovered that the child was gone early this morning.
He thought he had run out to play with other children.
The police officer said yes, he understood, and then asked the woman who wanted to call the police: "When you were searching around the village just now, did you see any other children?"
The woman shook her head and said no, and then the whole crowd exploded into the temple.
She just said that she had searched around the village and saw no other children, so these lost children were obviously not in the village.
So those parents rushed out and surrounded the police officer, saying they were going to call the police and ask others to help find the child, which made him a little anxious.
Later, he had no choice but to calm down the parents while calling a few colleagues to come over and explain the situation.
Several people discussed it, and finally the director came out to speak and told the villagers who were watching that our police force was not enough and we had to deal with things here. Everyone went around the village and surrounding areas to look for them. They were all fellow villagers. Please help.
Help, let's find the child together.
It can be said that the people in the village are quite united. After the director said this, the group of people all responded, and then the group of people dispersed with a huff, and walked towards the surroundings of the village in twos and threes.
I originally wanted to go up the mountain with Qingqing and Wu Hao, but I didn't want to take care of this matter. But I pulled Qingqing, and I don't know why she didn't move. She just frowned on the spot, not knowing what she was thinking about.
I asked Qingqing: "What are you thinking about? Let's go quickly."
Unexpectedly, she shook her head: "You two go ahead, I'll stay and help find the child, and when I find it, I'll go up the mountain to find you."
I was stunned for a moment, and Wu Hao was also quite surprised and asked her: "Sister Qing, this matter has nothing to do with us, right?"
Qingqing said that it didn't matter at first, but the man just said that there was a little girl who wanted to go out with his son in the middle of the night. I suspect that he was talking about the kid I met last night. That kid came out from under my nose.
He slipped away, so now he has something to do with me.
Wu Hao said that this reason is a bit far-fetched, and these people were scolding you just now, and now you are helping them find children, I always feel a little awkward.
Qingqing said, hey, scolding and helping are two different things. If this kid really did it, I'm afraid these people can't handle it. Besides, saving people is also a way to build up their own virtues, not to mention there are so many children.
Can you bear to see anything happen to them?
Then she turned her head and looked at me: "Be careful when you go up the mountain and don't go to those dangerous places. I will rush there before dark at the latest. When I am not here, no matter what happens, you can't be curious, let alone believe it casually.
Do you understand what others said?"
I nodded and told Qingqing that you should also pay attention to safety.
In fact, I was quite surprised by her attitude. I didn't expect her to say such a thing, and I was a little confused, because demons are supposed to be neither good nor evil. Is it possible that she is really a human being? Otherwise, why would she want to save these children?
.
At that time, Wu Hao still wanted to talk, but I stopped him. But before leaving, I remembered one more thing and asked Qingqing: "You have to give me your phone number, right? WeChat is also fine. Otherwise, how can I find him then?"
The two of us."
Unexpectedly, Qingqing shook her head and said of course that she didn't have a phone.
Now we were both dumbfounded. Is it the 21st century? There are still people who don’t use phones?
I asked Qingqing again, how will you find me then? She said she forgot how she found me that night in the hospital? She told me not to worry so much, she would naturally have something to do.
When she said this, I remembered that the two tooth marks on my thighs have not disappeared yet. She probably used this to find me at the time.
But I still feel a little awkward. Isn’t this thing the same as positioning? Fortunately, she is not my wife or something, otherwise, if I went out to take a shower and went upstairs, wouldn’t she just be caught by me casually?
I went up the mountain with Wu Hao with this strange idea, and it was indeed as the driver said, Taishan is now under strict control, and there is a fire prevention checkpoint at the foot of the mountain.
But we were very lucky. When we arrived at the checkpoint, we happened to catch up with the people inside driving out for lunch, so it went smoothly.
But the road in the back mountain is really difficult to walk. It can’t even be called a road. It’s just big rocks. It snowed a few days ago and the snow has not melted in some places. It was very slippery for the two of us to walk on it.
Both men have to be careful. If they accidentally fall, they will definitely end up with a bloody head.
In fact, the back mountain is not deserted. There are mud houses on some hillsides and even villagers herding sheep. They probably made the wild road at their feet. Wu Hao printed a map of Shanyin in advance, and the two of us just kept looking at the map.
After walking up the mountain for about half an hour, I saw an old lady not far ahead walking down the mountain with a stick.
I quickly went up to her and asked her, "Auntie, how far is the food stall from here?"
The old lady was quite enthusiastic, and she gestured while talking, but she spoke in such a dialect that I really couldn't hear what she was saying. I just guessed from her gestures that she meant to leave for another two hours.
It's about here.
I said thank you to her, and then Wu Hao and I carried our bags and continued climbing.
At that time, I asked Wu Hao, where was the food shack? Why was it named like this?
Wu Hao said that he had checked it, and it seemed that it was the only way to go up the mountain. There were a lot of people coming and going, so someone set up a shed here and sold some water and rice for the pilgrims to rest. Now it seems to be a few tile-roofed rooms.
Houses for forest rangers.
I said, isn't that a staff member? How can we deal with it after we get there? Wu Hao said it was nothing, and he kicked us out and left. Anyway, he couldn't go down with us. Where would he go then?
Don't know either.
I said that was true, and we continued walking up the mountain. But after walking for about an hour, I actually saw the old lady again not far away from the mountain!
