Chapter 344 Yang Ge Lao's suicide note

According to the route described by Mancang.

When Song Jin entered the bamboo forest, he found the secret code left by Wei Yuan, which was a few sloppy-looking strokes on a bamboo.

After walking for a while, we found another code. This code was different from the previous one, and it was difficult for non-people to associate it with it.

In order to prevent outsiders from noticing anything unusual, Xing Lun put a lot of thought into it, and there was more than one secret code.

If accidentally seen by outsiders, it would just look like graffiti, and no two are alike, so it would be hard for the pursuers to think it was a secret code. Even if they suspected it, it would be useless, and it would be impossible to discover their escape route.

Half an hour later.

Passed through most of the bamboo forest.

This bamboo forest is actually a small hill. When Song Jin walked down, he saw several large rocks as tall as adults piled together below a few clusters of bamboo, near the lake.

According to what Mancang said before, he and Wei Yuan had once hidden between the cracks in the rocks.

Song Jin searched carefully.

To her surprise, there was no secret code left.

But judging from the footsteps around, more than one group of people came here to search.

"Brother Mancang said that he and Wei Yuan separated here, right?" Song Jin asked Lou Ruhan who was standing aside.

Lou Ruhan said firmly: "Yes."

He responded and looked around again, "Based on his description of the environment, it is undoubtedly here."

Several large rocks between the bamboo forest and the lake.

There is nothing else like it around here.

Song Jin asked the others to disperse and search, "Use these stones as the center and look around to see if there are any clues."

"yes!"

The three of them dispersed in groups.

Lou Ruhan and Mu Ting did not leave, and they had to leave someone to protect Song Jin.

Song Jin asked again: "Have you thought of anything that would be inappropriate?"

"I have doubts." Mu Ting said.

Song Jin looked at her and said, "Tell me about it."

"Brother Mancang said that he and Brother Wei separated here, but there is no secret code left by Brother Wei here. This doesn't make sense." Mu Ting knew what would happen if she encountered the same thing.

Every place you stay, there will be a secret code left behind.

Besides, the code breaks right here.

Song Jin turned around and looked at the lake not far away. The water was rippling slightly, and bamboo leaves were floating on it, like small boats, slowly flowing in one direction.

"I see!"

Mu Ting suddenly exclaimed.

Lou Ruhan next to him also seemed to have thought of something.

The two looked at each other, and they must have thought of the same thing. They ran towards the lake almost at the same time and began to search the lake carefully.

Song Jin also thought of something.

After Wei Yuan led the pursuers away in Mancang, he most likely chose this lake as his escape route. This was why he would not leave any secret signals. Mu Ting was where the lake had just overflowed.

Among a pile of stones, I actually found a stone.

There are several scratches on the top of the stone.

It's hard to find if you don't look carefully.

Mu Ting handed the small stone to Song Jin, "Boss, this is the secret signal left by Wei Yuan. He did escape from the lake."

Song Jin took the small stone and examined it.

The stone was flat, and Mu Ting only saw one side of the secret code. Song Jin turned it over and saw several scratches on the back. This was not the secret code they had agreed upon.

Mu Ting saw it but ignored it, "This is not a secret code. I don't know why Brother Wei made these six strokes."

Yes, it is six.

It's not in the same direction, it looks like a scribble.

Song Jin thought of what the news said Wei Yuan had obtained, and Mancang said that the thing was with Wei Yuan. What it was, Mancang himself couldn't explain clearly.

The next moment, Song Jin held the stone in his palm.

He turned around suddenly and strode to the crevice between the stones.

Lou Ruhan and Mu Ting hurried over and saw Song Jin starting to search carefully around the stone again. Finally, he stopped in front of a big stone. There was a scratch on the stone near the soil.

Scratches from top to bottom.

It is big at the top and then gradually becomes smaller.

If you look closely, you will see that the scratches are new, but someone has deliberately covered them up with dirt to make them look very old, and even put some moss on them.

It's hard to find if you don't pay close attention.

The two men didn't know what Song Jin was doing. Finally, they saw Song Jin take out a dagger and start digging the soil below.

Keep digging down, digging along the stone.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Boss, do you want me to come?" Lou Ruhan asked.

Song Jin froze and moved away. "Let's dig. Wei Yuan may have hidden something here."

"How did the boss know that?"

Lou Ruhan was surprised, but he did as he was told, and Mu Ting beside him also came to help.

Finally, a piece of bamboo the size of a thumb was dug out.

Song Jin took it and found a piece of cloth rolled up inside the bamboo. He pulled it out and found that it was a letter wrapped in the cloth. On the envelope was written "My son personally", and on the back was a stamp, which turned out to be Yang Zhengkai's personal seal.

Is this the letter that Yang Ge Lao wrote to his son? Song Jin didn't read the letter here.

She put the letter into her sleeve pocket and said, "Let's restore this place to its original state. Let's go."

"yes!"

Lou Ruhan obeyed the order and filled the soil back in no time.

Mu Ting was sweeping away the traces.

The two of them finished packing quickly.

Mu Ting asked curiously: "Boss, you haven't told me how you found out?"

Song Jin handed them the stone from before. It was the six strokes on the back of the code. "Did you see it clearly? Does it look like a stone? The writing is a little sloppy, but it is indeed a stone. When you said he escaped from the lake, I was wondering if the thing he got was afraid of water? If it is not afraid of bubbles, he can escape from the water without any problem. What if the thing is not waterproof?"

This is just a possibility.

But it is also a very likely situation.

If Wei Yuan was not afraid of water and wanted to escape from the lake, he would definitely find a place to hide the things.

When Song Jin saw the word "stone", he immediately thought of the large rocks on the shore.

He stayed there, but deliberately left no secret sign.

According to their usual style, it seems inappropriate no matter how you think about it.

Song Jin thought that the thing was most likely hidden under the big rock, and since it was bare there, it was obvious whether something could be hidden there or not. The most likely way was to bury it in the ground.

Lou Ruhan blew a whistle.

Soon, the people who had scattered around to look for the situation began to gather here.

The group quickly left the bamboo forest.

It’s as if I had never been there.

When Song Jin returned to the house, he saw Xing Lun about to go out. Seeing Song Jin coming back, he was surprised and asked, "The boss is back?"

"Are you going out?" Song Jin dismounted.

Xing Lun came forward, took Song Jin's whip, and then handed it to the groom who came to lead the horse. He replied, "I went out to look for you, but you happened to come back, so I don't have to go out again."

Song Jin strode into the house.

Xing Lun followed closely behind.
