We sat in the cave looking at each other, not knowing what to do now.
He had just said that he would leave the park and go out on his own without waiting for Song Xiaoxue's arrangements. But before he could finish his words, the bounty from the park had actually reached the village.
All this happened so fast that it was almost impossible to react.
"Brother Cheng, are we still leaving?" Song Hao asked.
"Let's go? If we go out now, there is a high probability that we will bump into people in the village. If we meet Dan Mao who can't deal with Aung San, we will be completely ruined."
"Now we can only wait here until the limelight has passed, or we can ask Aung San later to see what his opinion is."
I expressed my worries, and they lowered their heads and stared at the cave quietly.
In the evening, I built a bonfire in the cave.
Then the five of us were divided into two groups. Song Hao and I stayed for the first half of the night, and Zhao Yan and Aqiu stayed for the second half of the night. Two people were enough, so Nie Zixuan was not allowed to participate.
But our silence did not last long. In the evening, we clearly heard gunfire from the other side of the village.
Although there were only a few shots, they woke us up from our sleep. We all picked up our guns and looked warily in the direction of the village.
"What's going on? Is there a fight? Do we want to help Aung San?" Zhao Yan asked doubtfully.
"No, there are no gunshots now. Nothing serious should have happened!" I frowned and looked in the direction of the village.
It was fine before, but gunshots suddenly appeared tonight. This matter is probably related to us, but now that the gunfire has stopped, there shouldn't be any big trouble.
If Than Mao and Aung San get into a fight and something goes wrong with Aung San, there will already be people rushing up the mountain with flashlights to look for us walking millionaires.
"Everyone has their guns in their hands so that if something happens, they can fight back immediately!"
Just in case, I asked everyone to brace themselves in case someone breaks in.
The group of people were awakened by the sound of gunfire and sat around the fire. The orange firelight shone on the faces of several people, making them look particularly haggard.
"Damn it, I wouldn't have come here if I had known. Some of us have guns. We can't make a living anywhere, but here we are still feeling cowardly."
Song Hao felt that we were living a miserable life, and he had a lot of complaints in his heart.
"Who knew that the place Song Xiaoxue was looking for would look like this, and we didn't expect that the park's reward would reach here so quickly. Everything is too coincidental, and there is no use complaining now."
I comforted myself. I also felt aggrieved living in a cave. Each of us had an AK with a lot of bullets and even grenades.
It is true that we can do a lot of things if we break out, but there are only five of us. In this unfamiliar place with monsters and monsters everywhere, it is easy to fall into other people's traps.
There is no one to guide us, and acting recklessly will only lead to our death without a burial place. This is why I am willing to listen to Song Xiaoxue's arrangements.
Even if she has other plans for us, at least she won't kill us.
And now she has a broader vision than we do, and can show us a clear path in this complicated place in northern Myanmar.
"Okay, don't hold back, everyone is here, at least now we have escaped and have freedom, so there is nothing wrong with being cautious!"
Zhao Yan and Nie Zixuan also spoke out to comfort Song Hao, telling him not to worry, as long as he has the guy in hand, it will come in handy sooner or later.
In this way, we sat silently by the fire until dawn. After we were sure it was safe, we took turns to rest.
Nie Zixuan also used her cooking skills at this time to make a meal of noodles for us using ingredients in the cave.
There wasn't too much seasoning, but we still enjoyed our meal.
When it was almost noon, a figure emerged from the woods, and we all raised our guns vigilantly.
"It's me, Aman, I'm here to give you something."
Seeing that Aman was here to deliver something, we all relaxed. After taking the thing from her hand, I asked about the gunshots last night.
"It's Dan Mao. He had a conflict with my brother. He wanted to persuade the people in the village to hand you over in exchange for money, but my brother refused."
Sure enough, it really has something to do with us.
"Is your brother injured?" I asked quickly.
"No, just use a few empty shots. They won't shoot at my brother."
Aung San was not injured and I was relieved.
"If someone in the village is against your brother, or if your brother gets into a fight with that man named Dan Mao, you should inform us immediately. Everyone here has a gun and can immediately support your brother." I continued.
Aman nodded and asked us if we had eaten breakfast. She immediately made it for us.
We said we had eaten, and she took Nie Zixuan to make lunch in the cave.
Perhaps women are born to like chatting. Not long after the two women were together, they were talking and laughing, and the conversation was lively.
A burst of aroma gradually appeared in the cave, thanks to what Aman had just brought, otherwise we would only have noodles for lunch.
After a lot of work, something that looked a bit like beef curry and other unnamed food were brought to the table.
"It's delicious! Amang's craftsmanship is so good. If you get married in the future, your man will be very lucky! While I was eating Haisei, I kept praising Amang's craftsmanship.
The little girl seldom chatted with others. When I praised her like this, her face and cheeks instantly turned red, and she was afraid to look directly at me.
"Brother Cheng, stop praising others. You're so handsome that you make others feel embarrassed!" Seeing that Amang was embarrassed, Nie Zixuan continued to fan the flames.
Several other people also burst into laughter.
"I heard that here in Myanmar, a man and a woman can get married as long as they meet each other. Aman, what do you think of our brother Cheng? If you think it's good, then get married!"
Even though he was eating, Song Hao couldn't keep his mouth shut, so he kept teasing the little girl.
"Go, go, eat your food, and don't tease other girls." I pushed Song Hao to tell him not to go too far.
Aman lowered his blushing face and said in a weak voice: "My brother said that I have reached the age to get married..."
After saying that, he immediately ran out of the cave.
Several people looked at each other and immediately burst into laughter.
"Hey, Brother Cheng, someone has taken a liking to you! Go and chase her. Anyway, we will stay here from now on, and sooner or later we will find a wife. I think Amang is good."
"That's right, everyone has talked about this. One day I will help you ask Aung San if he is willing to be this brother-in-law!"
"Don't talk nonsense. We are all licking blood from the edge of a knife. No matter what happens in the future, our lives have not been settled. Isn't this delaying others?" I said seriously.
"Yes, Brother Cheng is still unwilling. If it were me, I would have agreed on the spot! It's a pity that I'm not as handsome as Brother Cheng, so people look down on me!" Song Hao sighed.
"Okay, don't rely on it, be careful. If Dan Mao dares to take action against Aung San, he will definitely not let us go. Maybe he will take action against us tonight, and he is still in the mood to joke."
"Now everyone takes turns to stand guard, we must not take it lightly!"
As I finished my roar, everyone became more honest and guarded the entrance of the cave vigilantly.
Time passed slowly, and when it was midnight that day, I didn't expect that my crow's mouth would actually come true. I was already asleep, but I was woken up by Aman who suddenly rushed in.
When I learned that Than Mao and Aung San were fighting, I wanted to slap myself in the mouth.
