But in the end, she just curled her lips and said, "Maybe. The incident involving the previous funeral director was so big that they were impressed and remembered the key personnel... It's understandable."

Zheng Yuan asked: "Master, do you want to find someone based on this portrait?"

Lin Wu nodded.

Although there is a new discovery, at least the accuracy of this portrait can be guaranteed. I will just look for the 30% to 40% portrait that Tang Zhang mentioned.

She forwarded the photo to Zheng Yuan and said, "I'll leave it to you."

"Yes." Zheng Yuan agreed and asked, "Are we going to Gu's house now?"

Lin Wu hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded, thinking that there would be no one back at Xijin Mansion.

So Zheng Yuan turned at the next intersection and drove towards Gu's house.

When Lin Wu arrived at Gu's house, Gu Tangzhang and Chi Yangzhi were both there, waiting for Lin Wu. Gu Chengbo and Gu Shiqing were not there, as they had too many things to do and their vacation was over, so they went back to work and would not be back until very late.

With their precious daughter in front of them, Gu Tangzhang and Chi Yangzhi didn't think about their two sons at all and told Lin Wu directly that there was no need to worry about them.

Lin Wu didn't stay at the Gu family for too long. After dinner, he returned to Xijin Mansion.

When Gu Chengbai and Gu Shiqing rushed back to the Gu family, they were unable to see Lin Wu. They were so angry that they complained to Gu Tangzhang and his wife that it was useless for them to keep their sister. They then called Lin Wu themselves to say hello to her.

At that time, Lin Wu was in the study room of the mansion, planning to stay up late to finish the experiment that Chen Yue had given her, and wait until tomorrow to show it to Chen Yue at school.

She didn't have time to say anything to Gu Chengbai and the others. She hung up after a few quick words and continued to work.

Since meeting Bo Yuting, Lin Wu rarely stayed up all night, and his basic work and rest schedule was very regular. This sudden stay-up all night made Lin Wu a little uncomfortable, and he felt very sleepy before the second half of the night.

Lin Wu suddenly decided not to stay up any longer and went back to his room to sleep.

But just as I had this thought, my cell phone suddenly rang several times in a hurry.

Lin Wu turned his head and took out his cell phone from the pile of manuscript papers.

It turned out to be a message from Bai Jing. The last time Lin Wu sent a message to Bai Jing, Bai Jing did not reply to her.

"Why did it take so long to reply?" Lin Wu thought, maybe it was because he was with Bai Ning that he forgot about his friends and only cared about her now? If so, she would definitely give Bai Jing a good beating.

Seeing that what Bai Jing posted was a photo, Lin Wu opened the screen and clicked to take a look.

With just one glance, Lin Wu's expression changed slightly.

The background of the photo was an old hospital room, the walls were cracked and yellowed. There was a person lying on the bed in the photo, a young man who was unconscious, with all the exposed parts of his body wrapped in bandages and full of tubes.

The key point is that Bai Jing took a picture of his face.

Lin Wu was very familiar with this person - it was actually Bo Liu?! Didn't Bo Liu disappear under the mines of Damaya? He has not been found yet, and Bo Yuting is still in a bad mood because of this. After a long time without any results, he had to accept it.

How could he appear at Bai Jing's place now? Lin Wu immediately dialed Bai Jing's number.

The other end seemed to have guessed that she would call, and answered in a second: "Hello?"

It’s Bai Jing.

Lin Wu asked directly: "Is the man in the photo you sent me with you now?"

Hearing this, Bai Jing asked back: "So, you know this person?"

Bai Jing over there couldn't help but frown.

"So what you mean is that this person should be in R Continent thousands of miles away, not in Lingnan, China?"

Lin Wu: “Yeah.”

Bai Jing was surprised: "I checked him, he didn't have any disguise or plastic surgery, nor did he wear a human skin mask. I asked someone to test his DNA and check his identity with the public security system. The result came out today. I found that his last name is Bo in his ID information, so I thought he might be related to your girlfriend, so I came to ask you. But if he should be in Danmaya, how did he appear here?"

It sounds incredible that someone could appear out of nowhere thousands of miles away.

Lin Wu couldn't figure it out either, so he asked, "How did you find him?"

Bai Jing told everything, and thinking that she had not had much contact with Lin Wu during this period, Lin Wu probably didn't know the situation on her side, so she started from the beginning.

"We separated in Surabaya Prison before. Didn't you ask me for help and ask me to come to Lingnan, Huaguo, on your behalf to check the whereabouts of the Huo family here and what they are doing?"

Lin Wu nodded.

This was the information she got from the second cobbler. The Huo family has been most active in two places in the past few months, one is Danmaya and the other is Lingnan, China.

She was too busy to do anything at the time, and there weren't many people she trusted, so she simply asked Bai Jing to go on the trip for her. Because she had heard Zheng Mingxian and Leng Linfeng say that Lingnan was more dangerous, she asked Xu Xianhuai to ask Bai Ning to go with her as Bai Jing's assistant and to keep an eye on Bai Jing for her.

Because of Bo Ning's presence, Bai Jing can at least be calmer and more stable. He is no longer unable to control his desire to commit suicide like in the past, and he can now do things with more safety in mind.

"Bai Ning and I arrived here very quickly. After some investigation, we actually found traces of the Huo family. They were in a place called Zhangjia Village in Dayuling." Bai Jing said.

Lin Wu frowned: "Why is it Zhangjia Village again?"

"Again?" Bai Jing noticed this word, "Where else did you hear it?"

Lin Wu sighed: "We'll talk about it later. Tell me about your business first."

Bai Jing said "oh" and continued, "I also asked someone to check this Zhangjia Village. Guess what? This Zhangjia Village looks ordinary on the surface, but it is actually one of the thirty-six villages in Lingnan. But more than ten years ago, it suddenly withdrew from the thirty-six villages and later changed its name to be very low-key. I haven't found out why they withdrew from the thirty-six villages yet."

The so-called Thirty-Six Villages refers to several very special ethnic groups in the mountains in the Lingnan area. It is said that everyone in their village is extraordinary, there are many talented people, and the skills they possess are also strange and endless.

It’s just that they have always been somewhat xenophobic and rarely interact with the outside world, so the outside world knows very little about them.

Over time, the Thirty-Six Villages became extremely mysterious.

"Later, Bo Ning and I rushed to Zhangjia Village that night, hoping to investigate in person what the Huo family was doing there. After arriving, we stayed in a local homestay. The first few days were uneventful. I didn't find anything, and there was nothing unusual in Zhangjia Village either."

"But we found that the mountain behind Zhangjia Village seemed to be very unusual. The villagers kept it a secret and few people who went there in the past came back alive, so there were many missing persons cases reported in the area."

"At that time, Bo Ning and I didn't find anything else, so after discussing it, we decided to go to the back mountain to explore. But that night, a strange archaeological team suddenly came to Zhangjia Village."

"…Archaeological team?"

Lin Wu was slightly startled.

Bai Jing nodded and said, "This team is led by an expert, two assistants, and four team members. Actually, it seems nothing special at first glance, but there is a group of people protecting them, led by a young woman. I have a hunch that she is not ordinary and her skills are very powerful. Later events proved that my guess was correct."

"What happened next?" Lin Wu asked.

"Don't be impatient. Let me tell you what happened first." Bai Jing said, "Something happened the night they checked into the B&B."
