"Ah, it turns out I just came here. Why don't I have any impression of you?"
The bandit suddenly understood and nodded. He had no doubts about Ma Tao's words. However, the middle-aged man at the bar counter looked at Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi thoughtfully and continued busy preparing. Drinks requested by other bandits.
"Let me meet you. My name is Wang Ertou. My name is Wang Er. Why, are you also tempted by money to become an accomplice of these guys? You didn't expect it to be so cruel. But once you become an accomplice, you can't run away. "
The bandit named Wang Ertou said these words to himself, and after finishing speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.
Ma Tao turned his head and looked at Xiao Jinzi, then quickly said with a smile: "I call Ma Da, the person next to me is Ma Xiao, it's our first time meeting, let's have a drink."
As he spoke, Ma Tao quickly picked up the glass of boiled water on the table and toasted with Xiao Jinzi.
This Wang Er is also a cheerful person. When he sees someone toasting someone, he picks up the wine next to him without saying a word and drinks it again in one sip.
“Good drinker”
Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi quickly started to show off.
"It's not a big deal, isn't being a thief just for fun?"
Wang Er waved his head and said.
"Brother Wang, when will the boss come?"
After sizing up Bandit Wang Er in front of him, Ma Tao lowered his voice and asked tentatively.
"I don't know. It's tomorrow. It's already been two tomorrows. Why do you care about that? I'll be there as soon as the boss gets to the ferry."
Wang Er glanced at the empty wine glass in his hand and then knocked the table hard with the wine glass, shouting, "Where's the wine! Pour me some wine!"
The middle-aged man at the counter immediately ran over from the counter to pour the wine without mentioning the money. After pouring him the wine, he used the container on the side to refill the glasses of Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi. Full of boiled water.
"Oh~"
Ma Tao nodded, and finally got some information about the bandit leader, but what about this ferry? I heard Gore and the others mentioned that there is a dock to the east of Wuge Village. Where exactly is it? I didn't know, so I tried to make a trick and asked: "Is the boat the boss is riding on an old-fashioned one? Does it also dock at the Northeast Pier?"
Wang Er's head chuckled and said: "What a pier, we call it a ferry. Have you seen the ferry? It's big enough to hold a lot of people. You can see it if you walk eastward along the river behind Wuge Village."
Then, Wang Er seemed to have remembered something again, and he laughed and said: "I remember when we occupied that place, the boss on the dock cried and begged for his life. He was so scared that he peed his pants. It was so majestic. Come on, let’s have some noodles!”
There was wine in his hand again. Wang Er wanted to drink. He picked up the wine glass and touched it with Ma Tao. He drank half of the glass again, then licked his lips and cursed: "Good wine! It's so spicy." !”
After a few cups of Shao Knife, Wang Er's head started to get muddled again. He was already drunk. Now he saw that Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi were both double images. In addition, here The environment was very noisy, and I was already feeling dizzy. I couldn't hold on anymore, and once I lay down on the wine table and fell asleep in a daze.
"Brother Wang? Brother Wang..."
Ma Tao called him a few words. Seeing that Wang Er was already drunk and lying down, he reached out and pushed him twice. Finally, he confirmed that the man was completely drunk and had no reaction at all.
"Brother Tao, are you planning to go to the dock?"
Xiao Jinzi guessed Ma Tao's thoughts from the thoughtful look on his face, moved slightly closer to him and said.
"this……"
Ma Tao glanced at him and was about to speak when a soft body suddenly fell between the two of them. Almost subconsciously, Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi reached out to hold her. Only then did they see clearly that they had fallen on top of them. In the middle is a trembling girl with tears on her face after being beaten.
"You stinky girl, it's useless at all. You've made me lose money again!"
Curses rang out from a burly bandit who was blushing and carrying a rifle on his back.
"I'm willing to admit defeat. You owe me a total of 150 G. If you don't pay back your weapons, they will be mine, hahaha!"
Next to this burly bandit stood another bandit whose stature was almost the same as his. The mocking words came from this guy's mouth. In his arms was a frightened girl.
This girl knew very well that she was just lucky. If she had lost the bet just now, she might have been kicked away instead. How could she not be afraid? These guys were very aggressive and showed no mercy at all. , even if they have just had sex with them, the captured women are the tools for these bandits to vent their anger. Once they are angry, they will be the first to be hurt, even though it seems that they are the bandits. The thieves' gambling is not just gambling on their luck. This is their pitiful fate.
The burly man kicked him away and his femininity was almost gone. When he saw her hiding in the arms of two young companions, her face turned pale and she was holding her belly and trembling, he didn't want to pay attention to her and snorted coldly at her. , then looked at the bandit who had won the bet with a smug look on his face, said angrily, "Wait for me," and left angrily.
The bandit who won the bet also glanced at Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi, without saying a word, he turned around and left with the girl in his arms.
"Are you OK"
The matter ended like this, Ma Tao looked at the girl in his arms and said.
"ah"
Only then did the girl realize that she was still hiding in the arms of the other two bandits. She was so frightened that she hurriedly got up, but the blow to her lower abdomen was so painful that she didn't stand up and fell to the ground again. between the two bandits.
The girl was frightened. If she was being beaten, how could she bear it? The fear in her heart was coupled with the pain in her body, and her tears could not stop flowing down.
This girl's appearance is not very good, she can barely be considered to be above average, she can score 70 points, her figure is not bad, not fat or thin, she must have been tortured by those bandits in such an environment, her face is It's a little sallow, and the spirit is even more depressed.
"A bunch of beasts have dealt such a heavy hand"
Xiao Jinzi knew that the girl must have suffered hidden internal injuries from the kick from the burly man, and no one would be able to recover from the shock.
"you……"
Although Xiao Jinzi's voice was not loud, the three of them could be said to be standing next to each other at the moment. Even though the bar was noisy and chaotic, the three of them could still hear it clearly. This sentence directly made the girl She was stunned on the spot, and even forgot to shed tears. Experience told her that bandits would not talk about one of their own people like this, because bandits are all like-minded, and everyone is the same. People who can say such things It means that he is prejudiced and disgusted with bandits. How can such a person be a bandit?
"Ma Xiao!"
Ma Tao knew in an instant that something was not going well. The woman in their arms heard what Xiao Jinzi said, and it was very likely to lead to exposure. He immediately raised his leg and kicked the kid who was talking nonsense. Of course, this kick It was a reminder, without much effort.
"Fuck it!"
Ma Tao called Ma Xiao. This name was given to him by Ma Tao just now. Xiao Jinzi hadn't gotten used to it yet and couldn't figure out why Ma Tao wanted to kick him.
"You...are not bandits..."
This time, the girl became more convinced of her judgment. She turned to Ma Tao and begged, "Please help me, I don't want to stay here anymore, please..."
She mainly said this to Ma Tao, because she had already judged from Ma Tao's actions just now that this older man was the boss.
Hearing what the girl said, Xiao Jinzi also reacted and said that he had been exposed, but bringing such a woman with him was nothing to say. Isn't this just a drag? He immediately said to her: "No, we have other things to do." , how can I be mistaken because of you?"
Because Xiao Jinzi's tone was very unquestionable, the girl was a little desperate. She had already had enough of this hell-like life. How could he give up when he could seize the opportunity to leave at this moment? She immediately looked at Ma Ma with begging eyes. Tao, when the life-saving straw appears, she wants to hold it firmly in her hands no matter what, because this is her only chance.
"I said what's going on with you, why don't I say it? We still have very important things to do."
Xiao Jinzi was very anxious when he saw this, but there were all bandits here and he didn't dare to speak too loudly. He secretly regretted that he said something that shouldn't have been said, but it was too late to say anything now, this woman was already like a plaster Sticky.
"please……"
The girl is still making her last effort.
"In this way, we will save you, but not now"
Xiao Jinzi was trying his best to find a way to remedy the situation, but how could this girl let them go so easily? She didn't believe Xiao Jinzi's words at all.
"please……"
The girl's eyes were filled with tears. She knew that she had nothing to offer as a bargaining chip. She had no money, and her body had already been harmed by those bandits. But she had another way, and that was to blackmail her. Now that I know your secret, if you don't take me with you and leave, then I will tell your secret so that you can't leave. If you don't take me out, then don't blame me for being unjust.
Thinking of this, a look of determination appeared in the girl's eyes.
Human nature is like this. When they are extremely helpless, they are very sensitive to any disturbance around them. They hope that someone can help them, but after realizing that everything is in vain, they can easily become violent, just like a drowning person. They will desperately grab everything they can, even if they die, they will not let go and struggle desperately. In order to survive, their strength is often amazing, which will indirectly kill the people who try to save them. In the end, , two people will die together, but they don’t know that if you can lie flat in the water, calm down for a few seconds, you will float with the buoyancy of the water, and you can even save yourself without anyone.
"Okay, I promise you"
The moment he saw the resolute look in the girl's eyes, Ma Tao knew that there was no way he could trust this woman unless he killed her with one blow. But in such an environment, there was no way he could I have this idea, because once you kill the woman, you will become the focus of the entire bar the moment the woman falls. This is fatal. No one in the bar recognizes the appearance of the two bandits. , there is no need to hide their identities at all, so the priority is to stabilize the woman in his arms.
"real?"
The girl burst into tears and smiled. She knew that she was saved, and she was even more proud of her intelligence and her luck.
Xiao Jinzi did not dare to question Ma Tao's decision, because it was all his fault. After realizing his mistake, he sat there and remained silent.
It is not convenient for Ma Tao to educate him in this scene, but everything must be considered from two sides. It is not without any benefit to bring this woman. At least he can cover himself and make himself and others more like bandits. Also, from this You can still get some useful things out of the girl's mouth.
"Do you know anything about the bandits? Tell me."
Ma Tao turned around and used a little force with his hands to hold the girl squeezed between the two of them into his arms. The girl even sat on Ma Tao's lap.
"What do you want to know? I'll tell you everything I know."
Why did the girl sitting on Ma Tao's lap wrap her arms around his neck, put her face against his and was about to kiss Ma Tao's mouth.
"You'd better keep this movement quiet, otherwise I won't guarantee that I can take you out safely."
Paying attention to the behavior of the bandits around him, Ma Tao used a cold tone to stop the girl's next move.
"oh"
It was about her own life, so the girl quickly shut up and kept doing this, not daring to do anything too extreme.
Many years later, the girl still looked adoring when she recalled the scene at that time. Being able to sit in the arms of the epic bounty hunter Ma Tao was enough to make any woman scream. Although it only lasted for a short twenty minutes, it was still the proudest thing in her life.
"Tell me about the bandit leader"
The bandits who were drinking and having fun around him didn't even notice him, Ma Tao continued.
"The leader of these bandits is a man named Varu. All the bandits say that Varu is a murderer. This guy's hobby is to keep humans in captivity. It is said that his chariot can be amphibious on waterways."
The girl chattered a lot in a flattering manner, but Ma Tao only heard one key point, which was the amphibious tank.
"Do you know when this guy will come?"
Ma Tao frowned slightly. Based on his haste, he felt that this Varu should be a difficult guy to deal with.
"It's hard to say this. It was originally said that Varu would come to Wuge Village yesterday, but then I heard that a very powerful hunter seemed to be coming. Varu didn't show up in order to avoid him."
the girl replied.
"A very powerful hunter?"
Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi looked at each other and said.
"Yes, a very powerful hunter. Varu was so scared that he never dared to show his face. There were even rumors that he had gone to seek shelter from someone who was more powerful than him."
The girl nodded firmly.
"More powerful than him? Who is the person above Varu?"
Xiao Jinzi asked.
Because she had a bad impression of Xiao Jinzi, this guy never wanted to take her out of the tiger's mouth, so the girl didn't pay any attention to Xiao Jinzi's words.
"I'm asking you something!"
The grumpy Xiao Jinzi couldn't bear what she did, and he was so angry that he fell to the ground.
"Answer his words"
Ma Tao frowned slightly, he didn't like this woman at all, and now he hates her even more, but he has no choice, he still has to suffer from her now.
The girl didn't dare to go against Ma Tao's words. She pouted and said aggrievedly: "I only know that he is a big bad guy named Goss. This is the name I overheard when I was serving a little bandit leader. , I don’t know anything else.”
"Gomez?"
There is no doubt that when Ma Tao heard these words, he immediately thought of the bounty monster wielding a big hammer on the bounty hunter's wanted poster, but that was a modified monster. How could it collude with humans?
"Yes, that's right, it's Gomez!"
The girl immediately remembered the name as soon as she heard it.
Vaguely, Ma Tao felt that there must be some unknown secret in it, but what it was, he would have to wait until he actually faced them to know.
Seeing Ma Tao's frown, the girl felt that she had performed well, so she continued: "But just now at the gambling machine, I heard that their heads seemed to be heading this way. I guess, it seems that they are here. They will arrive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. In that case, the people who stick to the town will be wiped out in one fell swoop."
“It’s finally here”
Ma Tao nodded.
If you want to know about Gomez, you must first kill the bandit leader Varu. Everything starts with Varu. The fun is finally about to begin.
"Drink some water"
At this time, the middle-aged man at the bar counter came to their cup and filled the cup for the two of them with some boiled water. While pouring the water, the container shook, and a small piece of paper rolled out from his hand. The group, impartially, rolled right into Ma Tao's hand.
The middle-aged man didn't even look at Ma Tao after pouring the water. He turned around and went on to greet the other bandits.
"what?"
Xiao Jinzi also saw the paper ball.
Ma Tao calmly held the paper ball in his hand without looking at it. He wanted to curse in his heart. It seemed that not only this woman saw that she was not a bandit, but also the bar owner. He was so bad at pretending. Like a bandit? It’s such a sad idea that one person can identify oneself, right?
In fact, it's not Ma Tao's fault. They and Xiao Jinzi don't look like bad people in the first place, and they don't have the scornful air of gangsters. After more contact, you will naturally find out that Wang Er's brain is a reaction to drinking too much. Dull, if he were in a sober state, he might not be able to notice the differences between Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi.
, holding a ball of paper in his hand, but there were so many people here, it was wise to go out and take a look, but he saw the middle-aged man standing on the other side of the counter looking at him eagerly from the corner of his eyes, as if he wanted to Just look, Ma Tao was cruel, secretly opened the paper ball with one hand, and then used the cover of the woman's waist in his arms to secretly glance at the words on the paper ball.
There are five words written on the very wrinkled piece of paper (Save my daughter)
"Who is his daughter?"
The meaning of this note is both a cry for help and a threat. It depends on how you look at it. Since someone has the courage to send you a note, it must have confirmed your identity. Ma Tao was helpless and turned to look at himself. asked the girl in her arms.
"That one over there"
The girl in her arms loosened her arms around Ma Tao's neck and pointed at a girl at a wine table not far away. She saw that she was a woman in her mid-twenties who was being killed by the bandits around her. The girl couldn't drink anymore, but the bandits still had no intention of letting her go. They held down her arms, opened her mouth, and poured wine into her mouth without caring at all. The girl choked on her drink and struggled desperately, but the more she struggled, the happier the drinking bandits around her became, and some of them even screamed strangely.
How can they save this?
Ma Tao felt like his head was getting bigger.
"This is his daughter, why doesn't he save it himself?"
Xiao Jinzi couldn't understand how a father could watch his daughter being drunk.
"I thought if he tried to stop him, he would probably kill his daughter."
The girl in Ma Tao's arms revealed the reason in one sentence.
In such an environment, the enemy is outnumbered. If you endure it silently, you may still have a chance to survive. However, if you resist, you will probably be killed directly. Many girls have died in this bar. Perhaps, only by arriving At that time, the bar owner will take revenge wildly.
"When will they end?"
Ma Tao knew that he couldn't intervene in this situation and could only wait.
"When she fainted..."
The girl in Ma Tao's arms knew the habits of these demons very well, because she had also survived that state.
Sure enough, when she drank the tenth glass, the woman who was almost suffocated by the strong wine turned her eyes white, and fell limply on the chair motionless. The bandit was not happy, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it. The wine inside was poured on the woman's face, but the woman remained motionless, so the bandits gave up.
No one paid attention to the woman who was slumped on the chair. They started to look for the next one. The women around this group of bandits all turned pale in an instant, and they all wanted to hide, but there was always one who was the unluckiest, and another woman came. Being pulled over like this, the pitiful repetition started again.
"Can you leave this tavern?"
Ma Tao stared at the collapsed woman for a while and asked.
"Someone must be watching and there must be a deposit."
The girl in her arms knew that her chance had come.
"100G per person"
Hiding the excitement in her heart, the girl replied with a trembling corner of her mouth.
"You go and take that woman with you, let's go"
Ma Tao pushed Xiao Jinzi and continued.
"why me?"
Xiao Jinzi looked at the woman lying on the floor with vomit and asked reluctantly.
"What do you think?"
Ma Tao glared at him angrily, and then looked at the person in his arms.
