When Xia Tianhuo talked about the experience of being kidnapped and getting away, Yang Zhener was naturally the most interested.

While listening, she took out her mobile phone in the car, started to record some key words with a “memo”, and asked questions from time to time based on her earlier thinking.

In addition to Yang Lao San, Tang Baona and Li Yang also listened very enthusiastically.

After all, it was a case of a Chinese national being kidnapped overseas. It was originally a rare case. The whole process was quite dramatic with many transitions. It was Xia Tianhuo who witnessed the story of the person involved, but it was not audible everywhere. Associate Professors and intellectuals from universities like Li Yang have also turned on the gossip mode, turning their body in the front passenger seat and listening.

“…At that time, I suddenly felt that the ship seemed to be fixed. It was not a stop, and the feeling was different from that after docking, but… I didn’t feel the ship moving, and there was no undulation on the water. Then, I heard weird gnawing noises, crunching and tingling scalp rubs, people shouting, and…gunshots.”

Xia Tianhuo tells the truth about his previous experience on the boat. Except for some of his psychological feelings at the time and some past memories he did not say, other objective sensory feelings were said.

Yang Zhener immediately got excited when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: “You said you heard the gnawing sound? What exactly is it like? Is it’ka ka ka ka ka’ or’chi chi chi chi 嗤’, or’quack quack quack quack’?”

Xia Tianhuo froze for a moment, thought for a while, and said: “It should be’crunch’…No,’click-click’…it doesn’t seem right, in short, it’s like a lot of insects gnawing biscuits at the same time. “

Tang Baona, who was sitting on the other side, couldn’t help but put his head on the back of the front seat and laughed, shaking his whole body: “Oh, I can’t do it anymore. You two siblings are too funny. Obviously one is very dangerous. The tense kidnapping case was turned into a cross talk by you,’There are vocalists in Beijing, click, click, click, click’…”

Yang Zhener frowned, reached out through the little apple and pinched Tang Baona’s waist: “Nana, be serious, I’m asking serious questions, okay? This is very important.”

Speaking, she turned her head and said to Xia Tianhuo in front of him: “Why do you feel that the boat has stopped? Did you drive on which island?”

“It’s not playing games…what if we drive on an island or reef, it’s hitting the rocks!…We didn’t hit the rocks, and we probably didn’t bump into anything. It was just that something went wrong at that time.” Xia Tianhuo recalled Said: “I asked the last surviving kidnapper. He said that there was a’sea monster’ on the boat, with many hands and many eyes… But it should be just an illusion, because there is no trace left on the boat.”

“Lots of hands! Lots of eyes?” Yang Zhener was shocked when he heard it again, and everyone almost jumped up. He quickly wrote down these six words on the phone memo, and then continued to ask: “He saw The sea monster, won’t it look the same as the one that Montamilla appeared on the night of March 8, right?”

“When I was on the boat, I didn’t ask carefully. He passed out, but then I heard from the people in the embassy that the “sea monster” he described to the police was indeed the same as the eight-armed and eight-eyed giant who appeared in Montamira The illusion is very similar. And… after the appearance of the’sea monster’, he felt the same as those of Montamilla who had seen the illusion of a giant with eight arms and eight eyes. So we all guessed that the kidnapper and other crew members were on board the ship. The’sea monster’ I saw and Montamira’s’eight-armed eight-eyed giant’ may be essentially the same thing.” Xia Tianhuo said.

Yang Zhener looked towards Old Xia, who was sitting in front of Tang Baona and was brushing her phone: “Old Xia Old Xia! What do you think?”

She didn’t ask Xiang Kun, not only because Xiang Kun might not be able to pay attention to her while driving, but also because she could guess with her belly button. If she asked Xiang Kun, he would definitely answer: “Oh, not with her. You said that the secrets of our secret organization must be kept secret!”

Xia Libing put down her phone, turned her head and looked towards Xia Tianhuo: “You were locked in the cabin at the time, were you restricted to freedom?”

Xia Tianhuo nodded: “Yes, they tied me to a chair.”

“Can the eyes see? Is there light in the cabin?”

“I can’t see it, my eyes are blindfolded.”

“How long has it been since you were kidnapped, how was your physical condition, and have you eaten anything?”

Xia Tian Huo Du one after another answered, Old Xia said: “So you were kidnapped for more than 30 hours, after bumping transportation, transferred from Montamira to the boat, thirsty and hungry, and realized The kidnappers are very ferocious, they are very likely to tear their tickets, and they are restless, tied to a chair and blindfolded. At this time, when you hear riots outside, there are gunshots, then you will hear other weird things. Sounds and strange feelings are all normal.”

Xia Tianhuo hasn’t refuted, Yang Zhener couldn’t sit still at first, and immediately said: “He heard the sound of clicking and gnawing before he heard the gunshots and shouts!”

Xia Libing looked towards cousin: “Are you sure you heard the biting sound first?”

“This…” Xia Tianhuo hesitated.

Yang Zhener immediately said: “Even if the’big guy’ is locked in the cabin, didn’t the kidnapper say that he saw a sea monster? A sea monster with many hands and many eyes! This is not a coincidence!”

Xia Libing turned to Tang Baona who was sitting behind her and asked: “Speaking of sea monsters, what was the first animal that popped up in your heart?”

Tang Baona was stunned for a second before subconsciously saying: “Octopus? Squid? Octopus?”

Xia Libing looked towards Yang Zhener :”What are the characteristics of squid?”

“Uh…The squid has many tentacles, but…but it doesn’t have many eyes?” Yang Zhener argued.

“Really? How many eyes does the squid have?”

“There are… two… right?” Faced with Old Xia’s rhetorical question, Yang Zhener said uncertainly.

“Are you sure the squid has only two eyes?”

“Ah…cuttlefish…do you have many eyes too?” Yang Zhener couldn’t help but use his phone to look up the cuttlefish picture.

Li Yang, who has been listening in the passenger seat, said with a smile: “A squid has two eyes.”

Xia Libing then said: “The squid has only two eyes, but if it gets up from the water, what will the people on the boat see first? Does the suction cup on those tentacles look like eyes? He just said Many hands, many eyes, but eight hands and eight eyes.”

“But then when the kidnapper described it to the police, he said it was similar to Montamira’s phantom of the eight-armed eight-eyed giant!” Yang Zhener said again.

Xia Libing asked Xia Tianhuo: “It was the kidnapper who took the initiative to tell the details of the’eight-armed eight-eyed giant’ phantom, or the police told him the appearance of the’eight-armed eight-eyed giant’ phantom, and even Asked him after showing him the imaginary picture?”

“Uh…this, I am not quite clear.” Xia Tianhuo said.

“So, Old Xia means that the surviving kidnapper deliberately imagined a’sea monster’ to explain what happened on the ship at the time. Later, the Burmese police mentioned Montamira’s’eight With the illusion of a giant with eight eyes, he pushed the boat along the water and combined the illusion of the giant with the illusion of the giant?” Tang Baona looked thoughtful.

Yang Zhener is still unwilling to believe this inference: “But why? What was his motivation for doing this?”

“What happened on the ship at the time and why they killed each other, only the kidnapper knew. If the real situation is not good for him, he could not make a completely reasonable and rigorous rhetoric. The verified “sea monster illusion” to explain various phenomena may be an easier way to excuse responsibility.” Xia Libing said.

Tang Baona suddenly said: “It is reality that is more terrifying than’illusion’, so use’illusion’ to explain reality! Zhener, just like “Boy Pie”,’sea monster’ is the Old Hu!”

Yang Zhener looked at Nana, looked at Xia Tianhuo, looked at Old Xia again, hesitated: “I still think something is wrong, Old Xia, why are you so sure that there is no ‘sea monster’…”

Xia Libing said: “I didn’t say that there is no ‘sea monster’. I just proposed another possibility. You judge for yourself which possibility is true.”

“What about Montamilla’s illusion of the’eight-armed eight-eyed giant’? That was seen by so many people. Those who can never be seen are all made up and lying!” Yang Zhener said quickly again .

“I will not understood this.” Xia Libing said, “The guess I just made is only for what happened on the ship.”

Xia Tianhuo seemed to suddenly remember something, and quickly said: “Right! Before I returned to my country, I heard people from Burma say that it was Montamira who instructed the domestic fugitives to kidnap this time. The Burmese man named Wu Lun is a guy in the margin business. On the night of March 8th, he was confronted with people from other forces. After the phantom of the eight-armed and eight-eyed giant appeared, he stayed in the periphery. The subordinates suddenly said that they were leaving the organization, and then there was a conflict. Wu Lun was killed by his subordinates. So I have a feeling…that’eight-armed eight-eyed giant phantom’ appeared in Montamilla, it would No… to avenge me?”

When it came to the last sentence, his tone was a bit uncertain, but his eyes looked at Old Xia, who picked up the phone again and scanned pictures of some large experimental equipment.

Yang Zhener, who was a little messed up by Old Xia, revived, and said, “Could the’eight-armed eight-eyed giant’ and the’sea monster’ be the Guardian Spirit and so on of the’big guy’? Um,’The person who committed the fire in my summer, no matter how far away you are you will certainly be punished, A Tooth For A Tooth, double the reward!'”

Tang Baona said with a smile: “What you said just now looks like that. Why is it now directly changed into a fantasy story? What you made up is not as good as the last secret organization setting!”

Speaking, she found that the “Little Apple” sitting between her and Yang Zhener had her hands twisted together, her toes were rhythmically little by little, her lower lip was bitten, her eyebrows curled, she seemed to be holding back a smile, she couldn’t help but say with a smile: “Lao Yang, look at the fantasy story you tell, you can’t even listen to’Little Apple’.”

“Little Apple” hearing this, quickly said: “No, no! Actually I agree with the third elder sister…Uh, what Zhener elder sister said. I heard the news from the people who traveled in Montamilla. At that time, the appearance of the “giant” saved them and stopped the riots. Therefore, whether the “giant” is a phantom or something else, it must be “good”, maybe it’s like what Sister Zhener said, it’s us The “Guardian Spirit” of Chinese people!”

She naturally knew the truth of Montamira’s “eight-armed eight-eyed giant” illusion, Xiang Kun had secretly told her.

Knowing that Xiang Kun used her “familiar” “eight arms and eight eyes” to stop the riots in Montamilla and save many people in the country. She was also “you are proud”, so for a while, she especially liked Look for videos posted by Chinese tourists who have experienced the Montamilla group phantom event on the Internet. Listen to them thanking them for the appearance of the “eight-armed eight-eyed giant” and listen to their descriptions of the grandeur and hugeness of the “eight-armed eight-eyed giant”. Their various conjectures.

Although Xiang Kun didn’t tell her about saving Xia Tianhuo, as soon as she heard Xia Tianhuo’s description, she knew that the one who saved him at sea must be Xiang Kun again, with “eight arms and eight eyes”.

So just now when Yang Zhener and the others talked about that topic, she actually listened very happily, and even wanted to join in the chat several times, but she was afraid that she would leak her mouth and leak the secret, so she had to bear it all the time.

“Ai, it’s still’Little Apple’. You are good to the elder sister. Nana has solidified her mind and cannot understand this supernatural phenomenon.” Yang Zhener stretched out her hand and sighed on the shoulder of “Little Apple”.

Tang Baona didn’t know whether to cry or laugh: “‘Little Apple’ comforted you, you really floated? Looking back, do you want to use your’Guardian Spirit’ theory to go to Little Bell Seeking approval?”

The three girls in their third row were talking and laughing, and Li Yang, the co-pilot, said again: “Speaking of Montamira’s giant illusion, I also talked to some colleagues in our school before, no matter which subject or research direction. Yes, I am very interested in that matter. This is definitely not a scam. There must be some special reason that caused the group illusion. This matter is not only concerned by ordinary netizens, but also in academic circles and scientific research circles. As far as I know, many universities and research institutions have sent people to Montamira.”

Speaking, he described himself and some colleagues’ interpretations of Montamilla’s group hallucination events in a more straightforward and colloquial way with the people in the car according to their different professional perspectives.

Following the previous topic, I chatted with Yang Zhener and Xia Tianhuo about some legends related to “sea monsters” that once existed in the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea.

So much chattering all the way, they soon returned to Tongshi Town.

Xiang Kun did not directly drive everyone to the place where they lived in Chongyun Village, but first went to the “Youlong Hotel” in Tongshi Town for dinner.

Nowadays, “Youlong Hotel” is not only in that pedestrian street, but also in the entire Tongshi Town, it is a famous restaurant, and it is even a very famous Internet celebrity restaurant on the Internet. Tourists who rarely travel to Wushu Mountain will make a special trip to Tongshi Town to eat rabbit meat from “Youlong Restaurant”, which is regarded as an important “food checkpoint”.

Nowadays, in addition to the “Youlong Hotel” on this pedestrian street, there are also eight “rabbit restaurants” of different sizes, and several others are being renovated and ready to open.

The promotion of “Bronze Stone Rabbit Meat” has begun to spread out with the cooperation of local and many businesses.

So “Youlong Hotel” will definitely have to line up for meals under normal circumstances, but Xiang Kun and the others, as half of the hosts, reserved a box in advance, and went directly into the room when they arrived.

Zicheng and his girlfriend Chu Xiaoting were already waiting in the box. Seeing the bird cage held by Yang Zhener who walked in, Chu Xiaoting got up in surprise and moved in: “Wow! What kind of bird, is it a parrot? It’s so beautiful!”

“It’s not a parrot, it’s a canary! Chu Eldest Miss, your creature is failing!” Yang Zhener put the bird cage on the corner table and said.

Chu Xiaoting was even more surprised, bending over to look at the “Golden Shining” in the bird cage: “Such a fat canary? I thought that the canaries are all small…”

It is also strange to say: “This is the’Golden Sparkle’ that Xiang Kun raised before? Why is it so fat? What a big one!”

Xiang Kun said with a smile: “It’s all the credit of’Little Apple’. When I followed me, I was not so fat.”

Chu Xiaoting leaned close to the bird cage and teased “Golden Sparkle” for a while, and suddenly said with a smile: “Why do I think it looks a bit disgusting with me? Hey, he turned around and shit… “

Zicheng quickly pulled his girlfriend away: “The canary is very courageous. Don’t scare it. This is not a stress response, right?”

Yang Zhener said with a smile: “Don’t worry,’Golden Shining’ is also a bird who has been on a plane now. She has seen the world and she is very courageous. Right,’Little Apple’?”

“Little Apple” took out a good amount of bird food from his small backpack, walked over to give “Golden Shining” food, said with a smile: “‘Golden Shine’ has a bad temper, no It will be scared, but it is very careful. If you make it upset, be careful that it turns around and teases you.”

“Golden Shining” ate a few bird food, raised his head and tweeted twice, as if expressing dissatisfaction.

Chu Xiaoting said in surprise: “This bird seems to be human, it feels like it can understand what you are saying, hey, is the canary so smart?” She said to herself, “I am too I want to raise one.”

“You will raise me first.” I said with a smile, and then he was pinched severely on his waist.

Xia Tianhuo saw that “Little Apple” could do it by himself from taking bird food to getting up to feed the birds. He was more and more amazed. Can this really be done only by hearing? How could she judge the location of the bird cage and the location of the food trough so accurately, without even having to reach out and try?

He was sitting by the window in the box, and noticed the guests sitting in the chairs outside the store and waiting in line for the table, and exclaimed: “Your store is too strong, right? There are so many people in line. ……”

Li Yang said with a smile: “Mr. Xia, go to station B and follow the video number of their’Youlong Xitu’, and you will know how popular they are. Not to mention locals, every day, you will be famous everywhere. There are probably a lot of diners who come.”

After hearing this, Xia Tianhuo thought they were doing a good marketing job, but after waiting for the dishes, after eating a few dishes of this classic rabbit meat, he changed his perception and realized that this shop It is “relying on strength” to get hot.

“How is it, is it delicious?” Yang Zhener asked his cousin with a smile.

Xia Tianhuo nodded: “It’s really delicious. Does it have something to do with the ingredients of rabbit meat? I have eaten rabbit meat before. I don’t think it tastes as tender as here. Old Xia and Xiang Kun are here. Isn’t the breeding research base in Chongyun Village specializing in breeding this kind of meat rabbits?”

“What you have eaten here is already castrated. You have to eat the rabbit meat made by Chef Xiang before you know what’delicious’ is!” Yang Zhener said triumphantly, as if this rabbit meat is She does so mediocre.

“The castrated version?” Xia Tianhuo glanced at the piece of rabbit meat he was holding, frowns saying: “I haven’t heard that the rabbit needs to be castrated? Isn’t it more troublesome to castrate?”

Yang Zhener was taken aback and stared at him: “It means the incomplete version! The semifinished product version! It’s not the rabbit being castrated! Your comprehension…”

Xia Tianhuo didn’t care about arguing with his cousin about the definition of “castration”, surprisingly said, “Does Chef Xiang mean Xiang Kun? Can Xiang Kun cook much better than this?” He was actually a year ago. Before I met Xiang Kun, I had heard of Xiang Kun cooking very difficult to deal with, but at that time I thought I was an amateur, and I usually cook very well.

Tonight’s rabbit meat at “Youlong Restaurant” can be said to be the best rabbit meat he has ever eaten. This seasoning is a special taste he has never tasted before. I am very surprised, but listen to Yang Zhener’s words It seems that the rabbit meat dishes in this restaurant are developed by Xiang Kun, and Xiang Kun himself is better than the restaurant? Doesn’t it mean that he is a professional chef? Really a chef? Isn’t he a very difficult to deal with programmer?

“Of course! Tomorrow you have tasted the dishes made by Chef Xiang, and you will know what “real delicious” is!” Yang Zhener said affirmatively.

Xiang Kun said with a smile: “Lao Yang, stop boasting, don’t think everyone is greedy like you!”

But although Xiang Kun said so, Xia Tianhuo discovered that in this box, in addition to Xiang Kun, other people including Old Xia, Tang Baona, Li Yang, and even “Little Apple” all said to Yang Zhener An expression of approval.

So even if it was more than ten o’clock in the middle of the night when I arrived in the village, the road still looked bright. Looking at the surveillance cameras at the intersection, even those who came to the village for the first time would feel a lot more secure.

Xiang Kun deliberately drove past the construction site of the research base, and it is still brightly lit. There are a few workers at work. A short and dark youngster who smoked at the entrance of the construction site immediately took the cigarette away when he saw their car. Twirl out, ran over and waited on the side of the road.

“Mr. Xiang, have you come back?” After the MPV stopped, the youngster asked by the window.
