Chapter 57 The Pearl Swamp

Zheng Zheng's side is working hard for the criminals, and Lu Ming's side is also anxious about the embezzlement of public funds.

In three days, Zhuang Li will come to check the accounts, and the 5 million that he lost is still 4 million yuan short of making up. He has already borrowed money everywhere, but in the past, those cronies who heard the word "borrow money" would be ashamed They all evaded, either saying that the funds were locked up or the stocks were losing money. In the end, they even refused to answer his phone calls. Lu Ming gritted his teeth with hatred.Don't those guys who look down on people with dog's eyes dare to be so arrogant because they saw that his left and right hands Zhang Lu and Lin Yuanwei were both dead, and thought that no one could use him!Just wait for him, the humiliation he received today, sooner or later he will repay those guys ten times and a hundred times!

But the most important thing now is to collect the 2 million yuan as soon as possible.Lu Ming walked up and down the room irritably. Since he became Zhuang's son-in-law, he hasn't had such a difficult time for a long time.In recent years, the housing prices in T City have become more and more expensive. Lu Ming wanted to make a good fortune, so he threw all his money in the real estate market.Having said that, if he hadn't just spent a large sum of money on real estate, the company's liquidity was insufficient, and Zhuang Li was pressing harder and harder, he wouldn't have fallen to the point where he needed to borrow money.Moreover, Zhuang Li hadn't moved before, but he suddenly wanted to check the company's accounts, leaving him no time to borrow money from the bank... As for loan sharks, Lu Ming is not that stupid yet.

"Ring, ring, ring..." The familiar ringtone rang, and Lu Ming walked to the desk with a frown, picked up his mobile phone, and it showed that Boss Zhu was calling.Boss Zhu is a friend that Lu Ming has known in the past two years, because they are both optimistic about the real estate market in T City, so they got along very well.However, Lu Ming has always looked down on Boss Zhu's shallow eyelids and his stupid behavior of offending his friends for some petty gains, so the two are just friends.So Lu Ming couldn't figure it out, Boss Zhu would take the initiative to call him when everyone was avoiding him.

"Hey, old Zhu, what can you do for me?"

"Hey! Look at what you said, can't you go to Boss Lu if you have nothing to do? What's the relationship between us!" Boss Zhu's bold laughter came from the other side of the phone, "But this time it is indeed as Boss Lu said, but What a great thing!"

"Oh? What's the matter?" Lu Ming sneered inwardly with disdain, how could Boss Zhu seek him out for nothing with his personality of being useless?Only ghosts can believe this!

"That's right. I heard that, boss Lu, you are in urgent need of money recently."

"I'm really a little tight lately." Lu Ming laughed twice.

"Hey! Boss Lu, you are too out of touch! Why didn't you tell me you were short of money? With our relationship, if you tell me, I will definitely try my best to help you!" Boss Zhu pretended to be angry said.

Hearing that Boss Zhu wanted to lend him money, Lu Ming squinted his eyes vigilantly instead of being happy at the first time. Although he didn't believe that Boss Zhu would help him sincerely, Lu Ming's tone was full of surprise: "Boss Zhu is really Righteousness! I, Lu Ming, did not mistake you as a friend!"

"Hahaha, it's a great honor for me, Old Zhu, to meet Boss Lu Da! Hey, I don't want to talk nonsense. I heard that Boss Lu's new real estate has three buildings to promote. , but I am willing to buy it with 100 million yuan per set to solve Boss Lu's urgent needs." Boss Zhu said.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Lu Ming almost laughed angrily, "Boss Zhu, you really know how to joke! My project is close to the center of T, and each set is at least 200 million! You asked for half the price, you are helping Should I still take the opportunity to kill me?!"

"Boss Lu, what are you talking about! I bought your real estate and I will find a way to sell it. If I can't sell it, I will lose money. I am helping you at the risk of losing money!" Boss Zhu said no Happy Road.

What a joke!Now the real estate situation in T city is so good, only if there is no house to buy, how can there be a house that cannot be sold? !To put it nicely, this Zhu Lidang simply wanted to take the opportunity to cut off a piece of his flesh!And it happens to be 100 million/set! There are 1 houses in 72 building, and 3 houses in 216 buildings. The sum is just over 2 million yuan. It is obvious that he is deliberately stuck with the 2 million yuan he lacks!Zhuang Li is only 3 days away from coming over to check the books, even if he knows that the loss is huge, he can't refuse the 2 million yuan that came to him now!

Who is it?Who leaked his information to this bitch Zhu Lidang!Lu Ming was so angry that his liver hurt. If it wasn't for the mortgage of the house, he would have taken the house as a mortgage, so it would be cheap for Zhu Li to be this bitch!good good good good!Let him wait, he has eaten this dark loss, and he will definitely pay it back in the future!

"Haha, I was just joking just now. Boss Zhu's willingness to buy is naturally a great help to me. But the price is really too low. If Boss Zhu wants to buy it, the money must arrive in the account within two days. " Lu Ming said.

"It's natural. If it's convenient for you, Boss Lu, I'll transfer the money to your account immediately after we sign the contract tomorrow." Boss Zhu was very happy to think that the fat would soon be in his mouth.

Hehe, even such a large sum of money has been prepared in advance, this Zhu Lidang really planned it long ago!Lu Ming had another business conversation with Boss Zhu and then hung up the phone. He leaned on the desk with a "snap" and took several deep breaths before resisting the urge to throw the phone.

-

"Haha, thank you, Boss Lu, for the opportunity to cooperate more in the future! Cooperate more!" Boss Zhu laughed until his small eyes squeezed into a line.

Thinking of the notification that he had just received, Lu Ming twitched the corner of his mouth and showed a fake smile.

After dismissing Boss Zhu, Lu Ming immediately called Zhuang's accountant to ask him to start filling in the account. He must fill in the loopholes so that Zhuang Li can't see it.As soon as the other party heard that Lu Ming had prepared enough money, he immediately patted his heart and said that he must make the account look good.After completing the important matter on his mind, Lu Ming relaxed a lot. He didn't even notice that when he was on the phone, a trace of black mist slipped from his body into his mobile phone along his fingers.

Gao Hong, who was far away on the outskirts of the city, opened a curtain and looked at the gloomy sky outside the window: it is really a good weather for netting.

-

"Pearl Swamp! It's Pearl Swamp!! You can't go there!"

The terrified look of the old policeman made Director Wang frowned: "Old Liang, what's the matter with you? What do you look like!"

Liang Buwei is 51 years old this year. He is a native of X City. He has always been very steady and organized. He has solved many cases by relying on his understanding of X City. In the entire police station, there is no police officer who is more familiar with this area than him.Director Wang's specific transfer of Liang this time is of course a petty idea. If Liang Buwei can find the victim based on his familiarity with the terrain, it will undoubtedly be a great credit, a great credit to Director Wang.Therefore, Director Wang was very upset by Liang Buwei's sudden attack now.

Zheng Zheng was more concerned about Liang Buwei's abnormality than Director Wang's unhappiness. He held down the panicked Liang Buwei and asked, "Officer Liang, why can't we go there? Is there anything strange there?"

Liang Buwei's face contorted for a moment, his lips moved, and finally he just shook his head: "In short, you can't go there, and you can't come back if you go there."

"Old Liang, what nonsense are you talking about? That's where Miss He escaped from. She's doing well!" Director Wang glanced at Zheng Zheng, then turned to stare at Liang.This person is usually so stable, today he is bewitched or something, he is just talking nonsense, it is really embarrassing to throw him in the next city!

"Director Wang, you said before that Police Officer Liang is a local. Since he said that, there must be a reason... If you can figure it out, it will be of great help to our search and arrest operation this time." Zheng Zheng has always been concerned about police work. Seriously, because sometimes even the slightest mistakes can cost you, your companions, and the people their lives.So since it involved such an important matter as the rescue location, how could he let Liang get away with it?He didn't want to say it, so naturally there was someone who could let him say it, and he would spit out all the information verbatim!

Sure enough, Director Wang's eyes lit up when he heard what Zheng Zheng said, and he immediately ordered Liang Buwei with a straight face: "Old Liang, how can you keep your secrets when it comes to such an important matter! You know nothing about Pearl Swamp. Tell us more or less, if you miss the rescue, you will not be spared!"

Lao Liang still refused to tell everyone the reason, until he was pulled aside by Director Wang to do ideological work for nearly 10 minutes before he reluctantly explained the reason for his resistance to the Pearl Swamp.

"I am a native of X City, and my village is on the other side of Fulu Mountain. Since a long time ago, people in our village were forbidden to get close to the forest near the Pearl Swamp... This is due to a story. In the Ming Dynasty At that time, the Pearl Swamp was not a swamp, and there was a big house on it, because it was built in the middle of the forest, surrounded by flowers and trees, with fresh air and pleasant scenery. Although from a modern perspective, living in such a place is terrible, But in ancient times, this kind of life hidden in the mountains was very admired. There lived a young man in that house. It is said that his family was in business. Because he was weak and young, the family built this house specially. Let him recuperate.

One night, a beautiful girl knocked on the door of the mansion suddenly, saying that she was lost.The young master saw that it was getting late, and he really couldn't bear to let a girl drive at night in the forest, so he let the girl stay.Unexpectedly, there was a sudden heavy rain the next day, and the way out of the forest could not be seen clearly, so the young master had no choice but to let the girl stay in the house until the weather improved.It rained for more than half a month. During this period, red sleeves added fragrance, night talks under the lights, and the relationship between the young master and the young lady became better and better.After the rain stopped, the girl told the young master that her family members died in the wilderness. She went to a distant place to seek refuge with relatives this time, but after getting along with her during this time, she fell in love with the young master. Slaves are servants.The son also had a good impression of the girl, so he kept the girl.

But some strange things began to happen, and the villagers who entered the forest were killed and their hearts were dug out.In those days, people relied on water to eat water, and mountains to eat mountains. The villagers had to go to the mountains to make a living, so they had to go in groups with several people, but they still never returned.The villagers had no choice but to ask the county magistrate for help. The county magistrate didn't pay much attention at first, but the small team of officials sent by him was also killed, and the death was extremely horrible and ugly.The county magistrate was furious, and determined that a group of vicious gangsters were hiding in the forest, so he asked the general who happened to pass by there to take people to suppress the bandits, and the general agreed because of his friendship with the county magistrate.

The general led a team of 800 people and two black dogs into the forest. The black dog followed the blood of the dead to the mansion, but saw a huge white monster eating a piece of red meat, and the dead body was thrown aside.The team brought by the general had a fierce battle with the white monster. The mansion was strewn with soldiers' blood and severed limbs. The last soldier who knew some skills escaped with the general.After the general escaped, he wrote a letter to the emperor at that time, and the emperor ordered to capture the monster alive, so the general had to take the soldier and 2 soldiers to the mansion again, but only saw a swamp.After this incident was spread, people began to call it Pearl Swamp, and built a small temple at the entrance of the forest to enshrine the monster for safety.Rumor has it that if you stay near the Pearl Swamp at night, you will be pulled into the swamp by monsters in the swamp! "

"Hahaha, who would believe such an old-fashioned story now!" Wang Xiaofan couldn't help laughing at first.

"That's true!" Liang shouted without anger. "My grandfather's Red Guards were rampant in the 70s. When they heard about this, they immediately formed a team of 30 people to 'eliminate the four olds'. At that time My grandfather tried to stop them, but they didn't listen, not only burned the small temple, but also ran to the Pearl Swamp, and none of them came back alive!"

Everyone present frowned, still not believing what Xiang Liang Buwei said.

"In any case, in order to rescue the victim, we have to fight even if it is a sea of ​​swords and fire, let alone these invisible things." Zheng Zheng is very accepting of ghosts, but the victim is still waiting to be rescued. The first thing he must do is to stabilize the morale of the army. As for whether he will really encounter monsters... then he will play by ear.
