Chen Jiayan’s words made me re-examine this matter.
I have never thought about whether there is a group of people hiding in this village.
I thought about it carefully: "If you think about Lu Dashan, why is it that only the village chief's house has been built with tile roofs?"
"He is definitely the biggest beneficiary!"
Chen Jiayan's eyes were a little straight and she murmured: "This pool of water is getting deeper and deeper."
After a pause, there was some sparkle in her eyes: "I think maybe we can leave first."
"How to say?"
"This matter is far more difficult than we imagined. It is not cost-effective to waste it here."
She leaned on the window sill and gestured gently with her fingers: "The things we grabbed are still in the water. Once someone discovers them, it will be difficult for us to escape."
"Besides, if we stay around, it will easily arouse suspicion."
"So, move things out first, and then we'll come back?"
"right!"
I thought about it before and after, and this suggestion is feasible.
"When it gets a little darker, let's go get something from the river first, and then we'll leave."
"good."
The bus stop is at the entrance of the village, and you can go around it along the river. This route is the safest.
It was getting dark, and we reached the river. She kept watch while I went into the water.
Fortunately, it was tied with a pirate buckle at the time, and it didn't loosen even after being soaked in water for several days.
I climbed up with difficulty relying on a piece of driftwood. Seeing no one around, I hurried to the station.
The backpack was filled with water and its weight had more than doubled, making it difficult for me to carry it.
Along the way, I kept looking behind me for fear of being discovered.
I arrived at the station in fear all the way, and the time was exactly 7:55.
The current backpack is nothing more than a bomb and must not be seen.
The few minutes waiting for the bus were excruciating.
A few minutes later, bursts of yellow flickered in the darkness, and the old bus neighed.
When the dry dust got into my nose, I immediately put my backpack on my body and said, "Get ready to get in the car."
Before Chen Jiayan could speak, a familiar and terrifying voice sounded behind me.
"You just left like that? Didn't you even say hello?"
At some point, the village chief appeared behind me.
There were several rather strong men with him.
I instinctively blocked Chen Jiayan behind me and laughed a few times: "You are not in a hurry to catch the bus."
"What's that on your shoulders?"
I looked back at the dripping backpack, knowing that I couldn't escape today, so I stuffed the backpack into Chen Jiayan's arms.
"There is a knife on the side of the backpack. I will find an opportunity to get in the car later."
After saying that, I turned to look at the village chief, feeling a little more calm.
"I have suspected you from the very beginning, but I never had any evidence. I let you go on purpose today just to find out the truth."
The dim orange light gradually came closer, and the remaining light fell on the village chief's white temples, adding a bit of eerieness.
"I must praise you, you are very smart."
The village chief did not hesitate to praise, nor did he hesitate to ridicule: "But despite all your calculations, didn't you avoid it?"
"Squeak!"
The dilapidated bus suddenly stopped, making a sharp braking sound.
Seeing that the car had arrived, I turned around and kicked open the rickety bus door, and pushed Chen Jiayan in.
"Walk!"
Chen Jiayan rolled into the car in a somewhat embarrassed manner, and I opened my arms and placed them in front of the car door.
"At this point, no one is welcome anymore!"
The village chief had a sullen face and asked in a cold voice: "There is a price for being nosy! Don't leave today!"
"Sacrifice him to the gods!"
Four or five strong men swooped up at me. My feet were a little bit lower, my body rose into the air, and I turned around and stabbed my feet out diagonally.
The strong man rushed forward without any scruples, and forcefully kicked me with his shoulder. Then he swayed and clamped my ankle with a creaking socket.
But this confrontation really shocked me.
I am so familiar with this strength, it is Qiao Jin!
Only internal kung fu can produce this kind of soft yet strong kung fu!
I suddenly mobilized the strength in my waist and twisted myself into a twist in mid-air, relying on my tenacity to force the strong man to let go.
Tonight, I'm afraid the odds are stacked against me.
The village chief sneered and waved his hand: "Why use force?"
"If you can obey now, maybe that girl can still keep her body intact."
These words directly hit my heart, and I trembled inexplicably.
The village chief laughed loudly: "Boy, let me tell you, there are no buses at all at night."
"That bus driver is also one of mine!"
