The monk's panic showed that there was something wrong in his mind, and the burden he was carrying was actually bulging, and he was clearly penniless in his cave.

"Are you the police officer? I left something behind. It's at the place where I used to live. I want to get it back." Seeing that it was Monk Lin Jinghao, he put down his posture.

"Really? Why do I think you don't want to get things, but put things away?"

The monk didn't notice the blood on his hands, nor did he notice the change in Lin Jinghao's expression: "Officer, monks don't lie. I promise, I'll come back as soon as I go."

After the monk finished speaking, he tightened the baggage on his back and wanted to continue walking forward.

Lin Jinghao stretched out his hand to stop him. At the same time, he winked at Xiao Zhang, and the three of them immediately surrounded the monk: "Can you let us see what's in your backpack?"

When the monk saw that he was surrounded, he seemed to calm down. He took off the baggage from his shoulders and was about to open it: "Officer, what are you doing? I'll just open it for you to see."

"Officer, don't let him go..." Suddenly, a man staggered out of the tunnel. He seemed to be injured. Before he could take a few steps, he fell to the ground with a plop.

Just when the attention of the three people was attracted by the fallen man, the monk quickly put the bag on his shoulders, and at the same time, he struck out with both fists to hit Xiao Zhang and Da Da on the left and right, and his right foot also struck unceremoniously.

Kicked Lin Jinghao's left knee directly.

Xiao Zhang and Da Dabu were looking sideways at the hermit who fell to the ground. They didn't even notice the monk's attack. They only felt that their stomachs were hit hard by something, and they immediately said "Oops" and bent down in pain.

Lin Jinghao stood in front of the monk. He stepped back to avoid the monk's kick, but before he could fight back, the monk's right fist followed him again, this time hitting him directly in the chest.

"What a fast move!" Lin Jinghao hadn't encountered such an opponent for a long time. He raised his left hand to block, and then struck out with his right hand, hitting the monk directly in the face. The monk ducked to the left and kicked Lin Jinghao in the lower abdomen.

.

Lin Jinghao felt the monk's power from the moment he resisted his punch, and he dodged again. At this time, the monk saw that Lin Jinghao had stepped out of the way, and immediately jumped out. His movements were so fast, what happened?

Lin Jinghao stretched out his hand and failed to catch the man who had been running and walking in the mountains all year round. He could only quickly pull out and chase after him.

Dashu, who was waiting in the police car at the moment, had just received a call from Xiao Zhang, so he had been staring in the direction of the path, but no one appeared.

In the complete loneliness, he was about to light up a cigarette and take a few puffs when he suddenly saw a figure running out of the end of the path. He immediately opened the car door and rushed out.

"Big tree, stop him," Lin Jinghao's voice came from behind the figure, and the big tree immediately opened his hands, preparing to stop the rushing figure.

The monk was running away desperately. When he looked up, he found that there was a policeman in front of him, but he had no way to turn back. He could only bravely rush forward, not to mention he was very confident and had practiced kung fu for so many years.

, you can directly knock the opponent down with one move.

Seeing the figure rushing towards him getting closer and closer, without any intention of stopping, the big tree stood up

He was actually experienced, and he knew that the other party was going to force his way through.

Sure enough, when he was still about two meters away from the big tree, his opponent jumped into the air, bent his right knee forward, and rushed straight towards him.

Dashu quickly got out of the way. He knew that with the opponent's momentum, if he was hit by him, he would at least end up with a broken sternum. However, he took advantage of the moment when the opponent rushed over, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the opponent.

The baggage strap on the back.

This time, the opponent was directly pulled down by him. The big tree was also unsteady due to the momentum, and then stumbled down. The baggage on the opponent's back was also torn off and fell to the ground, and the contents inside were spilled.

The ground was covered with golden light under the sunlight.

The monk fell hard to the ground, but he immediately stood up like a carp and was about to turn around to pick up something on the ground. When he saw that Lin Jinghao was about to rush up, he could only grit his teeth and discard the items on the ground.

Turn around and continue running away.

Lin Jinghao rushed forward and finally stopped when he saw the gold utensils on the ground and the big tree that fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while.

"How's it going, Dashu? Is everything okay?" Lin Jinghao asked with concern.

"It's okay, Lin Suo, hurry up and chase after him." The big tree climbed up awkwardly, but the figure of the other party had disappeared at the end of the path.

"Forget it, I can't catch up." Lin Jinghao knew that this place was in the mountains. With the monk's footsteps and his understanding of the terrain, he probably wouldn't be able to catch up even if he continued to chase.

The reflection of a piece of goldware caught Dashu's eyes. He knelt down and picked up one, weighed it, and tapped it with his hand, making a dull low sound of "Plop, Plop".

: "Lin Suo, look, it's pure gold."

The shape of the ornament on Dashu's hand looks like a hairpin worn by women in ancient times. Judging from the style, it looks like a bird spreading its wings to fly.

"Wow, this guy isn't a tomb robber, is he?" Dashu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the quality of the gold jewelry on the ground. It was obviously old.

"Lin Suo, has the monk escaped?" Xiao Zhang and Da Dabu supported a person and rushed up from behind. This person was Scarface. He could no longer walk at all. He was covering his stomach with his hands and his fingers were constantly cracking.

There is blood oozing out.

"What's wrong with him? Have you seen the little Taoist priest?" Two people have been seen, but only the little Taoist priest is missing.

"He must have been stabbed, but we didn't see the little Taoist priest coming out." The two men stopped with their scarred faces between their hands, and they also saw the gold jewelry shining yellow on the ground.

"You two quickly send him to the hospital for treatment. Dashu, you put away the stolen goods on the ground. I'll go see how the little Taoist is doing. You can send someone to pick me up later." Lin Jinghao didn't see the little Taoist.

He started to worry about his safety. As soon as he finished the instructions, he raised his legs and walked towards the tunnel again.

"Lin Suo..." Dashu called from behind, as if he wanted to remind Lin Jinghao to pay attention to safety.

"Keep an eye on him, don't let him run away." Lin Jinghao, who had walked away, turned around and warned again.

Walking into the tunnel again, Lin Jinghao was worried. Judging from the injured look on Scarface, it seemed that the three of them had a disagreement after they left.

, the little Taoist priest will definitely accuse one of them as the murderer of his master. Then the three people will start to accuse each other, so that it eventually turns into murder. Then among the three, the little Taoist priest who is obviously the weakest will probably be the one who killed his master.

It's no longer bad!

Lin Jinghao walked straight through the tunnel and headed straight to the cave. Lin Jinghao did not stop for a moment. There were only messy footprints along the way. It was not until the door of the cave that there were traces of a fight. Latex paint and talcum powder were sprinkled on the floor, and the white liquid was on it.

There were still stains of blood.

"Little Taoist, little Taoist." Still not seeing the little Taoist, Lin Jinghao called twice into the room, but no one responded. He rushed directly into the monk's room, glanced at no one, then turned around and walked in

No one was seen in Scarface’s room!

‘What’s going on?’ There was an obvious small hole in the wall of the two rooms. The hole was not large. They should have dug it to hide things.

"No wonder they want to whitewash the walls?" Lin Jinghao suddenly discovered that this seemingly unnecessary act of painting the walls turned out to be to cover up their activities behind the scenes.

Not finding the little Taoist priest, Lin Jinghao retreated from the house again.

'There are three families, but there are only two caves. Does this mean that there should be another unknown place here?'

Lin Jinghao began to search deeper into the valley, and when he reached the end, he found no other obvious places.

‘Could this little Taoist priest be able to fly into the sky and escape from the earth?’ Lin Jinghao was unwilling to give in. He once again began to search the outside carefully from the deepest part of the valley.

Unconsciously, an hour and a half passed, and Lin Jinghao finally gave up. It seemed that this place could not be found with the naked eye.

"Lin Suo," Xiao Zhang's voice came from the tunnel, followed by Pei Feng.

"Here." Lin Jinghao waved to them. It was probably that the signal was only available on the mountain road, so they came in.

"Lin Suo, didn't you find the little Taoist priest?" Xiao Zhang couldn't help but ask when he saw Lin Jinghao standing there alone.

"Yeah, I've searched the whole valley, and I haven't found anyone. How about the guy with the knife wound?" There was no trace of the little Taoist priest, so it seemed that we had no choice but to go back and interrogate the scar face.

"He has been sent to the hospital. It is not life-threatening, but the doctor said it is best to wait until he is more awake before interrogating him." Lin Jinghao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Xiao Zhang's answer.

After sealing the two caves, the three people walked out of the valley again.

"Lin Suo, how did they find such a hidden place? And I also heard from Dashu that a bag of antique gold jewelry was found on the criminals. Could it be that they are not real hermits, but tomb robbers?

"Pei Feng said as he walked, he regretted not following all the way now.

"Yes, these hermits in the mountains have no identity, no communication tools, no communication with the outside world at all, and they still live a simple life a hundred years ago. Their mentality is really difficult to understand..."
