The First Evolution

After Fang Linyan heard it, he stopped talking, hung up the phone, and said to the driver in front:

"Master, drive faster."

It turned out that Fang Linyan had already returned to the mainland at this time. In half an hour, I got off the plane, packed a car and drove on the highway.

Yes, Fang Linyan immediately began to correct his mistakes after discovering that he had misjudged the importance of the diary left by Xu Bo, and quickly booked a ticket to the mainland online.

He calculated the time and felt that there were still five days until the total solar eclipse, so he should be back in time.

So after delivering the box to Boss Tang, Fang Linyan went directly to the airport, and at the same time called the church forces in Taicheng, sent Xu Bo's diary, and asked him to help investigate related matters. information.

Now, he is on his way to his hometown -- Badong County.

Although this is where Fang Linyan grew up, he doesn't miss it at all, because there are no good memories left for him here, and all the memories here are gray and depressing.

If Fang Linyan's first half of his life is regarded as a short film, then the experience in Badong County is black and white, silent, until he left here, it becomes colorful, with sound and soundtrack.

Therefore, after Fang Linyan could act independently, he never had the thought of wanting to come back---just like a person who likes to reminisce about the old days, he only visits old friends or his former residence when he has time. , if it is not necessary, he will not go to the hospital where he once lived, unless he is a doctor or has an indescribable story with the nurse...

After galloping for three hours, the car under Fang Linyan's bag got off the highway, and after driving for another two hours, the car was forced to stop. It wasn't that the driver was making a noise, but The road conditions really don't allow it to go any further.

Because the car under Fang Linyan's package is a Guangben Accord, the car can run on normal roads without any problem, and the fuel-saving sealing is also very good. However, the ground clearance of this Accord that this guy drives is only 100MM, which is about ten centimeters.

Therefore, this car can be said to be extremely poor in passing! After getting off the highway and driving for dozens of kilometers, the road ahead was so tattered that it seemed like it had been bombed by multiple shells, and there were big pits and small pits everywhere.

After the driver drove for two kilometers, his face was ashes. When crossing the pit, with a crisp sound of "click", the car finally fell into the nest...

No need to say more at this time, Fang Linyan simply gave the balance, and then said to him:

"Okay, just send it here."

Fortunately, we can see that the vehicle is not lying in the barren mountains and ridges. Five or six hundred meters ahead is a town called Qiujiaba. This is just a small town that catches the big market on a single day and rests on two days.

In this small town, time seems to have frozen in the 1990s. There are dilapidated and crooked houses with red bricks and black tiles everywhere, and even some of the tile houses are half covered with grass, probably because it was planted not long ago. Because of the rain, there are muddy puddles and roads that have not been repaired for a long time.

Fang Linyan is very familiar with this, because if he sees it on a sunny day, the residents here throw their garbage directly into the pit of the broken asphalt road in order to save worry and trouble. It is also the most common way they maintain roads.

Of course, once it rains, the rubbish re-floats and gets all over the place with the stagnant water.

Fang Linyan walked quickly to this town and found himself in an embarrassing situation where he couldn't even spend the money, because he observed everywhere and found that he didn't even have a motorcycle he wanted, and the most common mechanical means of transport were still Small four-wheel tractor, and the body is full of people.

Going out, there must be something to ask for directions,

Fang Linyan just asked a grandma to find out, and saw the grandma pointing straight to the other side of the road. Fang Linyan looked up and found a tattered bus stopped at the entrance.

The most distinctive feature of this bus is that there is a huge black rubber bag on the roof, which looks similar to the airbag of an airship! This particular vehicle is the first gas vehicle, only found in a few remote mountainous areas and, importantly, where natural gas is produced.

The black giant airbag on the back of the passenger car is used to store fuel like the fuel tank of an ordinary car, but of course the airbag stores natural gas, and the fuel tank contains oil.

As the bus stopped, Fang Linyan also clearly saw the sign placed under the windshield at the front of the car. It clearly wrote the words -------Sanqu-Xuewu-Badong in Song script, which means that This car is on the route from Sanqu County to Badong County, and it will pass through Xuwu Village on the way.

When Fang Linyan trotted towards the bus, he noticed a large group of people pouring out from the side door next to the bus. Most of these people were still wearing old-fashioned Zhongshan uniforms, some with chickens and ducks, and some on their backs. Vegetables, and eggs... Obviously, they're here for the market.

Taking advantage of this wave of getting off the bus, Fang Linyan successfully squeezed into the car.

The floor of the carriage was covered with muddy water, and there were even several bubbles of fresh chicken excrement. Fang Linyan's right side is a pole, and his left side is a basket of eggs. To maintain his balance, he can only rely on the railing held by his right hand. Fang Linyan feels damp when he holds it in his hand. Sweat or snot down.

The smell in the car is unpleasant, a damp smell, which is also mixed with the compound smell of foot odor, body odor, chicken excrement odor, breakfast smell, etc. Fortunately, the fresh air wafts in from the window after the vehicle starts. He slid to his face, and finally relieved him.

The ticket seller was a middle-aged man in his thirties, who only shouted after he drove:

"Bought a ticket, bought a ticket! Be conscious of getting on the train."

Then he began to have a hoarse quarrel with an old woman, because he thought the old woman had to pay two dollars for the fare, and the woman would only pay one seven.

In a fit of anger, the middle-aged man directly told the driver to stop and drive people away. In the end, the widow paid two cents to end the final quarrel.

After Fang Linyan honestly gave ten dollars, he was treated to go to the back of the car, where it was a little more relaxed.

Next, amid the hoarse roar of the bus's engine, Fang Linyan began his bumpy journey back to his hometown. In his memory, it seemed that the road conditions weren't so bad when he left the orphanage!

However, after thinking about it, Fang Linyan realized that he did not take this road when he left Badong County, but walked more than 20 kilometers in the opposite direction to the railway in Songduo Township next to him, where there was a temporary Stopped trucking station.

He picked up a section of the truck compartment, and was directly taken out of the valley by the train.

The short distance of 47 kilometers, if there are no traffic jams on the highway, it is estimated that it will take about 20 minutes. The bus drove for three and a half hours, and I heard from the conductor and the people chatting. This is still the case when the car is not broken and the tires are not faulty.

If there is an emergency, it is easy to drive for five or six hours.

After leaving the dilapidated station and stepping back onto the streets of Badong County, Fang Linyan was surprised to find that although he had been away from here for almost ten years, the difference from what he remembered was not that big.

But to be honest, the same is true. For a county with a very bad geographical location like Badong County, it can be said that it is a long-standing problem to develop the economy. Without money, of course, nothing will change.

After walking quickly out of the station, Fang Linyan found that his mobile phone finally had a signal, but it was still 2G, and the traffic was extremely low. However, the church forces in Hong Kong had also sent him a lot of useful information.

After Fang Linyan hurriedly browsed it, he simply took out the list he had drawn up before, and then slid his fingers directly on it.

Obviously, the core of this matter lies in the old monster Xu Bo said. The medicine he took was prepared by him, and the negative film that formed the unknown strange thing was also related to it. If we say that all this is a mess. , then he is the thread!

However, there were too few clues left by this old monster, and Fang Linyan had no way to start at this time, so he could only find out from the rest of the people.

To find someone in such a small remote county, Fang Linyan thought very clearly. Obviously, the breakthrough point is the kind of old local policeman, aged 40 to 50 years old. He can't find a way by himself, and the relationship network of the three religions and nine streams is also intertwined, and he can think of a way to open up the situation easily.

A sociology expert once said that although there are a full seven billion people in the world, according to the authoritative six-degree relationship principle, your relationship with anyone in the world will never exceed six degrees.

That is, you can theoretically know any stranger through a maximum of six people.

If it is an online world, and the object on the cognition chain will not reject your situation, then the principle of six degrees of relationship can even be shortened to the principle of four degrees of relationship!

Fang Linyan agreed with this. During his journey, he directly used the power of Boss Tang and the goddess here to find relevant target people. This kind of inquiry is not difficult, especially in the developed economy of Taicheng. In a large city with a large influx of people.

Finally, three people in Badong County were locked.

Now, Fang Linyan is going to try his luck at Ye Qiang, the first choice among the three.

Ye Qiang is now fifty-seven years old, and he is close to retirement age. Of course, he was selected because of his complicated experience. He became a village head and then served as the director of the Family Planning Commission for a long time.

At that time, family planning was a national policy, and those caught in excess of births had to be killed directly. Not only that, but also a fine.

Of course, people in the countryside will not obey obediently, and they will not take it if they have money. People from the Family Planning Commission will lead the pigs and sheep. This is the case. Under the stubborn patriarchal idea, there are still people who insist on fighting, and they are not. few.

Therefore, if you want to hold this position for a long time, you must have a very good understanding of the grassroots. Otherwise, if the mother-in-law of any family can know such a secret (at that time, she didn't dare to say it), the network must be very wide.

However, Fang Linyan directly closed the door, and after inquiring around, he finally found the Ye family, but was told that Ye Qiang had been hospitalized in the provincial capital because of a bad heart.

Ye Qiang's house was only a few hundred meters away from the Xiangyang Welfare Institute where Fang Linyan stayed, so Fang Linyan took a look at the "relics" that had been burned by the fire. It was already a mess, but it was across the street A small shop called Fengshou Baozipu is full of people and business is very good.

But it doesn't matter, Fang Linyan went to find the second person. This person is the largest entertainment venue in Badong County. He is called the owner of the Magic Dance Hall. He is called Mai Jun. Transform yourself into the gray industry.

Such a person must be quite smart and has many connections, so Fang Linyan even got his phone number, but Fang Linyan did not call, because Badong County is not a paradise.

From Xu Bo's diary, we know that he inexplicably encountered a number of bizarre deaths here, which will undoubtedly make people feel creepy, even Fang Linyan will be very careful.

At this time, Fang Linyan was already standing at the door of the Magic Dance Hall, and then said to a man who was watching the door:

"I'm looking for Boss Mai. Mr. Zhong Yong introduced me."

Mr. Zhong is the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Yining City. He has import and export business in Taicheng, while Badong County is a county under the jurisdiction of Yining City. Mai Jun has only met Mr. Zhong, and the two have eaten twice. Fan is still a long way from mixing into Mr. Zhong's circle, but he must know and want to give Mr. Zhong a face.

Of course, Mr. Zhong is far away from Fang Linyan's direct relationship, so he is quite attentive after receiving the request.

This man is responsible for guarding the gate of the singing and dancing hall, so he must have eyesight. After all, Boss Mai is now in business, and he has to rely on this to make money. There must be people in the town, but reception, service these have to keep up.

Therefore, Fang Linyan reported his name, not to mention the local celebrity Mr. Zhong?

In the whole of Yining City, Mr. Zhong's popularity is almost the same as Li Boqing's popularity in Chengdu. Everyone with a little background knows him. Zhong Yong hopes that there are 20 primary schools in Yining City.

Therefore, this person immediately nodded to Fang Linyan and said:

"Come here, sir."

After speaking, he took Fang Linyan directly to a reception room on the second floor, and then asked Fang Linyan to wait.

Soon, a short fat man who looked a bit like Zeng Zhiwei came in, with a smile all over his face, and then directly stretched out his hands:

"This is Boss Fang! Mr. Zhong called me specifically to tell me about it. If Boss Fang wants me to do anything, just tell me directly! As long as I can do it, it's a trivial matter."

Obviously, this is the boss Mai Jun. It can be seen that this guy is also an old fox. He speaks with enthusiasm and even makes people feel warm. In fact, it is all fucking nonsense, and there are traps in his words.

For example, he promised to help, but in fact he added an attribute: as long as I can do it!

What can he do? Wasn't Mai Jun the only one who had the final say?

Fortunately, Fang Linyan still has a way to meet this old fried dough stick, or to be more precise, he intends to use only two things for all his collaborators, knives and money.

Take the money if you listen.

If you don't obey, you will be stabbed.

This is also the most efficient way of working together.

Therefore, Fang Linyan said simply:

"You don't need to call me boss Fang, just call me a wrench."

"I'm here because I actually want to do business with Boss Mai."

After he finished speaking, he took out the travel bag he was carrying. Of course, it was empty now.

However, when Fang Linyan reached out, he directly took out stacks of cash from the private space, all in denominations of 100 yuan, and put them on the table. The travel bag was actually just a trick.

Mai Jun was a little stunned to see that a large amount of cash was quickly piled up on the table. One stack was 10,000, and there were a hundred stacks on the table!

A whole million!
