"W-what does this mean?!"
"Young master, you mean that after getting the money, Zhou Daxi will still choose to tear up the vote?"
Zhou Cang looked at Wang Lin in front of him in surprise, his eyes full of confusion.
This was completely different from the plan he had imagined. Originally, he had imagined that no matter how vicious Zhou Daxi was, he would get such huge benefits and just run away without worries. The situation Wang Lin mentioned was not within Zhou Cang's consideration.
But if you think about it carefully, with Zhou Daxi's character, it is entirely possible that he can do such a thing!
"Since Zhou Daxi killed the first few people in order to keep his mouth shut, how can we be immune?"
"Is it possible that because we gave him too much money, he really wanted to let us go?"
Wang Lin was still tempting Zhou Cang in front of him.
Although the Zhou Cang in front of him was tall and thick, he was straight and straight.
Fortunately, his nature is not too bad. Even if he robs his family and robs his house, it can only be regarded as the pressure of life.
If it were to be reformed, it would be impossible to make meritorious deeds around oneself.
As expected, Zhou Cang couldn't help but show pain after hearing what Wang Lin said. He clenched his fists tightly and punched himself in the head.
"I'm so stupid! I almost killed you!"
Wang Lin looked at Zhou Cang in front of him with interest, and after confirming that the person in front of him was probably not a performer, he spoke slowly.
"If you feel so remorseful, you might as well tell me something that interests me right now."
"For example, where is this place and why do you have no food to eat?"
"Before you die, it's worth listening to a story."
After Zhou Cang heard this, he felt even more ashamed.
But after hearing these words, he instantly felt that Wang Lin was a free and easy-going person who was very suitable for him.
So, he spoke angrily to Wang Lin in front of him.
"Why is there no food to eat? Well, it's not the fault of that bastard county magistrate Tao Tianming!"
"It has been two months since the disaster occurred. Logically speaking, the court should distribute relief food. But who would have thought that now two months have passed, not only the free relief food has disappeared, but the price of food in the city's markets has also skyrocketed."
"Farmers from many nearby villages and towns went into the city to complain at the gate of the government office. But what they didn't expect was that they were beaten out by that idiot with sticks!"
Zhou Cang became angrier as he spoke and punched the wall.
Although the current place is not very good, the walls are strong enough.
Zhou Cang's punch didn't even make a muffled sound.
After hearing this, Su Yi looked at Wang Lin aside.
Wang Lin seemed to have already expected what was happening in front of him. He just nodded slightly and said nothing else.
Then Zhou Cang realized that Wang Lin was more interested in where they were now than what he had just said.
So he smiled sheepishly at Wang Lin in front of him and continued to speak.
"Our current location should be on a barren mountain near Zhoujia Village."
"Originally, the few houses on this mountain were used by villagers to go up the mountain to cut trees and rest. But since everyone turned into bandits, they have become cells for holding other people."
When Zhou Cang said this, he couldn't help but start to smile secretly.
"I have a way to escape from here, but we are wearing handcuffs and shackles, so it's really inconvenient for us to move."
"We can only take action when it gets dark and someone comes to deliver food."
Having said this, Zhou Cang deliberately put his ear against the door and listened to see if there was anyone around before choosing to tell Wang Lin and others the detailed plan.
Su Yi reluctantly tugged on his handcuffs and shackles. Although there was a lot of space between the handcuffs, the shackles made it impossible for his feet to move.
Moreover, the shackles are made very strong, making it difficult for people to break free at first glance.
Even if Su Yi possesses martial arts skills, it is impossible for him to tear off these metal shackles.
But Su Yi was still a little strange at this time. He looked at Zhou Cang in front of him and asked:
"Why does it have to be dinner? Can't we do it when the meal is delivered at noon?"
Zhou Cang shook his head:
"The food in the village is not enough right now. Where is there anything for you to eat? So naturally they will not provide good food and drink for the people in this house."
"This meal tonight is just to keep you from starving to death."
Su Yi's eyes condensed. This meant that their physical strength could not be replenished.
If you want to escape from here next, it will only be more difficult.
So, the three of them sat quietly in the cell, waiting for the arrival of darkness.
Time soon came to night, but the room was not plunged into darkness.
Just because the torch outside the hut was emitting bursts of fire, there was some light inside the hut.
However, this kind of light made Zhou Cang's mind suddenly sink.
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when someone came to deliver food, knock down the person delivering food, and then escape directly down the mountain road from here.
But looking at the current situation, it was obvious that there were other people watching around.
Zhou Cang couldn't help but curse Zhou Daxi, the old bastard, in his heart, and then his brain started to work rapidly.
But before he could think of a specific method, there was a sound of metal colliding at the door.
Zhou Cang was extremely familiar with this voice.
The sound of keys clinking!
So, after hearing this voice, Zhou Cang immediately followed the original plan and gave Wang Lin and Su Yi a look at the side.
Wang Lin and Su Yi understood the situation and fell to the ground with their eyes tightly closed.
Squeak——
With the sound of the door opening, the entire room was instantly illuminated by torches.
The middle-aged man who delivered the food knocked on the rice bowl mockingly, and while knocking it again, he said:
"Hey, hey, hey, it's time to get up and eat!"
This was originally a formula used to call pigs in the countryside, but unexpectedly, a middle-aged man used it directly on Su Yi and others.
But then, the middle-aged man couldn't laugh anymore.
Because he saw that the three people locked in the room in front of him had all fallen to the ground, looking unconscious.
Looking at the situation in front of him, the middle-aged man instantly felt a buzzing sound in his brain.
"What, what's going on? Hey, come here and take a look!"
"Why do the three people in this room look like they are dead?"
There were two people delivering the food, and the middle-aged man called out to the other person who was standing outside to watch.
"What, dead?!"
The other person was also extremely surprised at this time and walked into the room.
After the two of them had completely entered the room, they each stretched out their hands, wanting to explore the breath of these people.
Subsequently.
boom!
With a muffled sound, the door that was originally open was suddenly closed.
