Chapter 94 The Disappearing Person
Zhou Tong was shocked at the time and thought he was seeing things, but after rubbing his eyes and continuing to look, he found that those fireflies were real and were circling above his brother's head.
She was so frightened that she called her brother several times. But Zhou Tong said nothing and just sat there with his back to her, motionless.
Zhou Tong quickly found the switch, turned on the light, and rushed into the house.
But when the light was turned on, the room was bright and the fireflies disappeared. Zhou Tong turned around and asked her in surprise why she came to his room.
Zhou Tong was frightened and asked him what happened and why he was still awake so late.
Zhou Tong said curiously, it’s only eight o’clock, it’s still early.
Zhou Tong asked him to check the time, it was already past ten o'clock. Zhou Tong was also shocked, saying that he was clearly doing homework here, and it was only eight o'clock, how come it became ten o'clock, did he accidentally fall asleep.
Unable to get any other information out of him , Zhou Tong told Zhou Tong to go back to sleep, but the fireflies seemed to have disappeared suddenly and were never found again.
After Zhou Tong went to bed, Zhou Tong turned off the lights and looked carefully again, but still couldn't find it.
The next day, Zhou Tong went to wake up her brother early, but she didn't find anything unusual.
But after this incident, Zhou Tong was a little frightened and restless. She did nothing that night but stayed with her brother and looked at him from time to time.
However, Zhou Tong had been doing his homework in the room and nothing unusual had happened.
Later, Zhou Tong returned from a call with a colleague and found that the light in Zhou Tong's room was off. She was shocked and hurried over to see Zhou Tong sitting in the dark, with fluorescent light flowing above his head and several fireflies circling around him.
Zhou Tong called out several times, but there was still no response.
This time Zhou Tong did not turn on the light first, but walked up quietly and stood on tiptoe to catch the fireflies. However, as soon as she approached, everything went dark in front of her eyes, and the fireflies disappeared without a trace.
The same thing happened almost every night for the next two days, but every time Zhou Tong was woken up, he had no idea what had just happened, but he seemed to be normal.
Zhou Tong always felt that something was wrong, and after thinking about it, she decided to take her brother to the hospital. But she couldn't tell anyone about this, because if she did, the hospital would think that there was nothing wrong with her brother, and that she was the problem.
But on that day, Zhou Tong disappeared.
Zhou Tong hadn't thought about it in this regard at first, but after that dream, and after she actually dug out a person in the back mountain, she began to suspect whether her brother's disappearance was related to the strange things that happened those nights.
After listening to it, those old people did not ignore it like the others. After all, they were old and had experienced a lot.
Someone gave Zhou Tong some advice, saying that there was a Mr. Sun in the next town, who was a very knowledgeable person, and that he might as well ask him to give some advice.
Zhou Tong took a taxi to find Mr. Sun that day.
Mr. Sun is in his thirties , thin and not tall, but he looks quite impressive.
After listening to Zhou Tong's story, Mr. Sun pondered for a long time and said that he could take care of the matter, but because it was extremely complicated, the costs would have to increase a lot.
Although Zhou Tong was worried about her brother, she had been self-reliant since she was young and was definitely not a blind follower. She said that as long as her brother could be found, the expenses could be discussed.
But how do you know in advance how he plans to deal with this matter?
When Mr. Sun heard this, he became quite angry and said, "He is the successor of Xunyang Bajiquan. Do you think I am a liar?"
Zhou Tong was careful, but did not believe him, so he asked him some questions about Bajimen, such as its address and origin.
Although Mr. Sun was annoyed, he answered every question and told everything about Bajiquan one by one.
Zhou Tong felt relieved after hearing what he said, so he took out all the family savings, gathered some money from some friends and neighbors, and hired Mr. Sun to go to Lumen Town to investigate.
But Mr. Sun investigated and investigated, spent a lot of money, but made no progress. Whenever Zhou Tong asked him about it, he would give all kinds of ambiguous reasons to prevaricate.
Zhou Tong was not a fool. The more she looked at it, the more she felt something was wrong. One day, she finally couldn't help but argue with Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun was furious and quit his job on the spot and left Lumen Town, refusing to pay back a single cent of the fees he had collected.
Zhou Tong went to settle the score with him, but this kind of thing could not be reasoned with, and she was just a young girl, so she couldn't do anything to Mr. Sun.
If she were an ordinary girl, she would probably just blame herself for her bad luck, but Zhou Tong refused. After returning home, she went straight to Xunyang.
After asking around in Xunyang, I found out that there really is a Baji Sect. The address provided by Mr. Sun is quite good.
Zhou Tong was a brave girl and she went straight to Bajimen.
However, although Bajimen is only a small sect with a history of nearly two hundred years, it is not something that ordinary people can join.
After Zhou Tong was blocked from entering, he squatted at the gate of Bajimen and cursed them, calling them charlatans and liars!
Although the ancestral land of Baji Sect is located in a small town in Xunyang, it is quite remote and not a downtown area. But there are still many neighbors. Zhou Tong's scolding soon attracted a large number of people to watch the fun.
Bajiquan has been rooted in Xunyang for many years and it wants to be famous, so they had no choice but to quickly invite this young lady in.
The current leader of the Baji Sect was named Qin Renfeng, who was about forty years old. He happened to be in Xunyang at the time and met Zhou Tong in person.
As a result, as soon as the two met, the girl scolded them harshly, saying that the Baji Sect was a shameless scam and was extremely despicable!
Qin Renfeng was a man with a good temper. Although he was a little confused by the scolding, he still told the girl with a helpless smile to calm down, drink some water first and then slowly tell her what happened.
So Zhou Tong told him everything in detail.
Qin Renfeng frowned and asked Zhou Tong what Mr. Sun's full name was.
Zhou Tong said his name was Sun Dewu, and she had gone to someone to inquire about him before coming.
Qin Renfeng thought about it and said that he did not remember at all that there was a person named Sun Dewu in the sect, so he called the senior disciple who was in charge of the sect's miscellaneous affairs to come and ask.
After hearing this, the disciple shook his head and said that there was no such person as Sun Dewu in their sect, and it was likely that he had encountered an imposter.
After hearing this, Zhou Tong disagreed with this statement. He said that Sun Dewu knew everything about Bajimen and even knew who were the people in the sect. For example, the eldest disciple of Bajimen was named Liu Shaotong.
Liu Shaotong was also very surprised to hear that she could say her own name. He frowned and asked her what Sun Dewu looked like.
After Zhou Tong's description, Liu Shaotong said to Qin Renfeng, this Sun Dewu might really be from our Baji Sect, but his original name was not Sun Dewu, but Sun Ju.
Qin Renfeng immediately remembered what his disciple said. Their Baji Sect did accept such a person, but it was seven or eight years ago. Not long after Sun Ju entered Baji Sect, he was kicked out because of his sneaky and disobedient behavior.
Zhou Tong saw that they didn't seem to be lying, and with her personality she wouldn't have gotten entangled in it. However, this matter concerned her brother's life, and Bajimen was her lifeline.
So he refused to give in, saying that although Sun Dewu was kicked out, he was still a member of Wujimen, and Wujimen should be responsible for the money he cheated.
Qin Renfeng admired the little girl quite a bit and was not angry. He asked her to tell him the story of her brother in more detail.
After hearing about Zhou Tong's story, Qin Renfeng and Liu Shaotong both looked suspicious. Even with their knowledge, they found this matter very strange.
Liu Shaotong asked Zhou Tong whether he had really seen it with his own eyes or was just seeing things.
Zhou Tong assured that she absolutely saw fireflies circling above her brother's head, and she also believed that the disappearance of many people in Lumen Town might be related to this.
After much consideration, Qin Renfeng decided to send Liu Shaotong with two fellow disciples and Zhou Tong to Lumen.
When Zhou Tong heard this, she was surprised and happy and felt extremely grateful.
After Liu Shaotong led his men to Lumen, he first went to find Sun Dewu. That guy was indeed the Sun Ju from back then. When he saw Liu Shaotong, he tried to run away like a mouse seeing a cat, but was naturally caught by Liu Shaotong.
