"Is it okay to drink tea?" Chen Xing asked, and then explained, "The weather hasn't turned cold yet, so I didn't bring any wine with me." The Red Earth Continent is located in the north of the world, and it will be very cold in winter, so many people Have the habit of bringing wine.
"I'll drink whatever Captain Chen invites me to drink," Poona said with a smile.
Then, Chen Xing took out two marching cloth stools, a small kerosene stove, and a small pot for boiling water from the tent. We then loaded some water into the supply truck, took out the tea can from the side of the backpack, poured some water, and then boiled it.
After a while, the water boiled and the fragrance of tea came out. Chen Xing only had a marching cup, so he gave it to Bo Na and drank from his lunch box.
"Well, it smells so good~" Bo Na blew the hot air, took a sip, and praised, "I didn't expect that our Captain Chen would not only be able to pick up girls, but he would also be proficient in tea art and make good tea. I was really surprised~"
But in fact, to put it bluntly, Chen Xing just boiled a pot of water and threw some tea leaves in. There was no skill at all.
"No, it's just a little hobby." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hands. Facing Bo Na's deliberate flattery, instead of feeling happy, he became increasingly wary.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
I have to say that the woman in front of me is still a bit immature, or maybe a bit impatient. If it were him doing this, it would definitely be much more cryptic. At least you won't let the other party feel the problem so easily.
"Captain Chen, where are you from?" Bo Na put down the marching cup, looked directly into Chen Xing's eyes, and asked.
"Crow City." Chen Xing replied.
"Oh my God, that's a big city!" Pona exclaimed, then lifted up her clothes, looked at her belly, and said resentfully, "I mean, no wonder the skin is so white, whiter than mine, it makes people jealous. ~" Before Chen Xing could speak, she continued, "You look like a rich young man, what do you do at home?"
"No, just ordinary people doing small businesses." Chen Xing said.
"Yo yo yo, it doesn't look like it." Bo Na said to herself, "Those big businessmen always say that they are doing 'small business'..."
Chen Xing smiled, neither affirming nor denying. In this case, ambiguity is best. If people can't figure out his situation, they won't dare to have bad intentions easily.
Then, the two chatted for a while. When the tea was almost finished, Poona suddenly leaned over and whispered, "I just broke up with my boyfriend. Just last night, he said I was a bad woman. I am in a very bad mood now. Can you take me out for a ride?" Wind?"
"Huh?" Chen Xing pretended not to understand.
"There are too many people here, and I don't want them to see me crying." Bona said with a gloomy look, her mood seemed a little low.
But Chen Xing knew that everything he saw now was pretended by the other party, and the purpose was self-evident. But he couldn't figure out how the other party discovered that he was carrying valuables, or why the other party was targeting him?
He couldn't understand, but he definitely wouldn't put himself in danger, so he refused, "Tomorrow night. I got up too early today, and my eyelids are almost fighting now. If I encounter any danger outside, I'm fine. It would be bad if a beautiful woman got hurt."
"Tomorrow night, I don't need anyone to accompany me." Bona pursed her lips and looked unhappy.
"I'm really sorry. I really want to accompany you to relax. But I'm really too tired now. It would be rude if I fell asleep in the middle of the conversation." Chen Xing said with a pun.
"Okay, then next time. You go to bed early, and I'll come back to you for tea tomorrow night." Bo Na stood up to say goodbye, then twisted her waist and disappeared from Chen Xing's sight.
After a while, Bona walked out of the camp and whistled. Immediately, several figures walked out of the darkness and followed her back to the tent of the Black Snake Brigade detachment.
A middle-aged man sat cross-legged in the middle of the tent. He was the one who chatted with Chen Xing at noon today.
"That kid is very alert. My action failed." Bo Na said with some disappointment.
"Well..." The middle-aged man frowned and pondered for a while. Suddenly his eyes widened and he said in a deep voice, "In that case, just wait until midnight..." At this point, he made a "cut" motion, Replaced the second half of the sentence.
"Brother, this..." Pona looked a little hesitant, "Would it be too conspicuous if we did it directly in the camp? What if someone goes back and tells the brigade commander that we are taking private jobs..."
"It's okay!" The middle-aged man raised his hand, interrupted her and said, "Captain Sun said, he is just a newcomer and has no background. Besides, it is only natural to accept people's money to eliminate disasters for others. . Moreover, I think he ran to Longshi Town at this time. In all likelihood, he found something good in the underground water station and wanted to send it to the auction house for auction. As long as he can be captured, it will be double money. Sun Yong That share belongs to him.”
The middle-aged man squinted his eyes, looked around at the few men in the tent, and continued, "As long as we make enough money, we will go back to Dragon Tooth Mountain. Who is willing to serve that pervert Black Snake, who is always on tenterhooks, even sleeping? Can't sleep well."
"Hmm..." Bona nodded.
The big man in front of her is her eldest brother Powater. They come from a small mountain village in the north of the Dragon Tooth Mountains and have been living under Black Snake for seven or eight years. Black Snake is a psychologically twisted person, moody, cruel and sadistic. Whenever he falls into his hands, men are better off and can be killed with one shot. Women are the worst off, either crazy or crazy.
Working under Black Snake is like walking on thin ice, with trepidation and fear of making a mistake. As her elder brother said, leave as soon as you make enough money.
Late at night, the whole camp fell silent. In the darkness, several figures surrounded Chen Xing's tent. They hunched their backs and moved forward quickly with small steps, their clothes constantly making rustling sounds. They all held short spears more than one meter long in their hands, and the blade tips were wrapped in cotton to block the reflection.
They approached the tent quietly, and then with a flash of cold light, several short spears pierced into the tent at the same time.
"Stab, stab, stab!"
The tearing sound of the tarpaulin sounded one after another, but the feeling transmitted by the spear body was like being stabbed on a ball of cotton, without any force at all.
When I opened the tent, it was empty!
"Ah!" Poona couldn't help shouting.
"Brothers, Mr. Charles would like to invite you to the tent for a cup of coffee and a chat."
The mercenaries were in shock and confusion when a calm and calm voice suddenly came from behind them. Turning around, he saw that the person speaking was the assistant of the caravan captain, Charlie, a mature and steady middle-aged accountant.
For a moment, the mercenaries looked at each other, unable to make up their minds. In the end, Powater was the first to react. He waved to the people behind him and followed the middle-aged accountant to the caravan leader's tent.
