Wang Suo and Bai Song naturally would not miss such a good opportunity. The villagers who came here were all well-informed. Plus, they had already asked about the cliff yesterday. Everyone knew that these policemen came here because of the cliff. There was no need to hide anything, so they continued to ask the villagers about what was happening here.
This village is not big, with only about a hundred households. The people there have good morals and basically they are willing to tell anyone they know.
In this way, I actually found out some clues.
It is said that there are really good things on this mountain. The canyon is a "big pit", and it is said that there are treasures in it.
In fact, near every village, if it is a place that is not easy for people to go, there are always some legends. Some people say that there are treasures here, and some people say that it is haunted. Anyway, once the conversation starts, all kinds of miscellaneous ideas will emerge.
There are many legends about this place. Generally speaking, Baisong is more inclined to believe in evil stories such as haunted places and graveyards, because such stories are actually helpful in educating children not to go to dangerous places. Such legends can be found in many places, so the legend that there is a treasure here is very interesting.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the two were somewhat interested in this and wanted to know what clues attracted Scarface here and what led to all this.
So there are many different opinions. Several people who firmly believe that there are treasures here have put forward different versions of the legend. Some say that an emperor once built a tomb here, but halfway through the excavation, a dragon was dug out, so the project had to be abandoned; some say that an entire caravan was buried here, carrying a large amount of silk cloth, gold, silver and porcelain...
Anyway, anyone with a little common sense wouldn't believe it, but legends do have a market after all, and there are still many people who believe in these legends and believe that this scam is not that simple.
It is also because of this that many of the jokes that follow are actually exaggerated by the villagers themselves.
But things did not develop as expected, and the villagers were not as wise as they imagined. Soon, the rumor spread that the police had discovered and confirmed the treasure here and were coming to explore it.
????? ?????
This is really troublesome.
Stupid people are easy to talk to and easier to explain, and truly smart people are also easy to deal with. What we fear most are those who are just a little too clever.
Explain? Say the police are not here to look for treasure? Of course it is useless. Once this thought is opened, more people will think so. Wang was a little panicked. Where is the treasure? But if someone really wants to tie a rope and go down to look for treasure, and something dangerous happens, who will be responsible?
Wang Suo and Bai Song really felt a little out of control. They had not expected the villagers to have such a reaction. Wang Suo had no choice but to make a decision. He told the situation at the scene and showed the most curious people and the village cadres the photos he had taken with his mobile phone and sent back by the drone, and explained it to them...
Now no one is interested anymore.
In an emergency, we have to take the necessary measures. Although it is not right to do so, it is better than having someone really investigate it.
Human nature is really difficult to test. If it is not clarified in this way, some people will definitely make wild assumptions, and some people may really want to explore it, and it is even more likely that they will explore it overnight.
The most important thing is, if Wang Suo and Bai Song really ran to the scene right now and watched here all night, it would be even more troublesome... This cliff is so long, someone must think there must be a big treasure...
Wang Suo and Bai Song both understand human nature too well. This is indeed a very serious problem and both of them are responsible, but fortunately it has been resolved barely.
But as a result, everyone's enthusiasm for the two of them suddenly decreased. Even the residents of this household felt a little embarrassed. They expressed in their words that they did not want the two of them to live here. Perhaps they were afraid of bringing the plague home.
Even through the courtyard wall, one could hear someone outside teaching the children not to go to that place on the mountain to play...
Overcorrection?
Wang Suo and Bai Song smiled bitterly and found the village party secretary. The village party secretary didn't mind this matter and arranged a small kang in his home for the two of them...
What made Bai Song speechless was that he felt a little embarrassed because the family he was planning to stay with had prepared bedding for him, so he wanted to give him some money as compensation, but was rejected. Then Bai Song wanted to leave some of the food and drinks he brought with him, but the family didn't want any of them...
After this incident, although simple, both Wang Suo and Bai Song gained a better understanding of human nature.
The villagers were not wrong, they were just too curious about this matter, and the identities of Wang Suo and Bai Song made it easy for people to associate. But it is not a bad thing to keep the children here away from that place in the future. And if I don't explain, if a few police cars come tomorrow, it will inevitably lead to some "smart" villagers making wild assumptions. So it is still useful to explain it clearly.
Bai Song is still struggling with the matter of the treasure. It’s not that Bai Song really wants the treasure, but why does such a legend exist?
"You don't really think there are treasures here, do you?" After eating some farm meals in the evening, neither of them drank a drop of alcohol. Wang Suo looked at Bai Song who was in a daze and couldn't help but ask.
"No, I've been wondering why there is such a legend?" Bai Song was a little speechless: "The most important thing is that we can't ask again. If we ask a few times, people might think there is really a treasure there."
"Indeed, this kind of legend shouldn't exist." Wang Suo also frowned: "But this matter has nothing to do with our case. Even if it does exist, it is the business of the local archaeological department. There is no need to worry so much. Go to bed early."
It was the beginning of September, the weather was not yet cool, and the mosquitoes were fierce. Bai Song stared at the moon outside, "Wang Suo, I can't sleep."
"Then do as you please. I'm going to sleep." Wang Suo used a lighter to light a plate of mosquito coils: "You can get up whenever you want tomorrow. Our comrades who are supporting us won't arrive until noon tomorrow."
"Okay." Bai Song nodded, lay down and started to do questions on his phone.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, after a simple lunch, reinforcements arrived.
This was a murder case, and this was probably the farthest scene the Jiuhe Branch had ever been to. It was a case thousands of miles away, handled in a different place, and it was a case involving death. The county also sent a car over, and the deputy captain of the criminal police squadron also came.
As for the Jiuhe Branch, two vehicles and four people came. In addition, they also brought two complete sets of high-altitude rappelling equipment and related equipment.
What surprised Bai Song the most was that he knew all four people who came.
Captain Zhou, Sun Jie, Li Han and Wang Liang. Especially Wang Liang, he looked very proud when he saw Bai Song.
