"I believe in your judgment, and I also believe in Li San and Lin Xiao's own choices and abilities. I am on your side." Meng Ran nodded and said softly.
"But I also hope that we can inquire about unusual things around us along the way, or stay a little longer at each place. After all, not following Zhang Dacai just means that we don't accept the tasks provided by the system. It doesn't mean that we are completely You gave up on these two teammates, didn't you?" Meng Ran continued.
"Okay, as for the details, we can discuss them later after we have decided on the choice." Qi Zhen said.
At this time, Jiang Yan and Yu Liang finally understood that Qi Zhen's suggestion seemed ruthless, but in fact, on the other hand, it was for the sake of the entire team. However, it was up to the two of them to accept this idea from another perspective. Something happened.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Qiang, waiting for him to make the final decision.
Li Qiang had been silent, not knowing what he was thinking. At this time, he finally spoke slowly. I don't know if it was because of the cigarette just now, but his voice was a little hoarse.
"I choose...to abstain."
Jiang Yan and Yu Liang were both a little shocked.
They really couldn't understand why Li Qiang, who always valued his teammates extremely highly, would abstain from voting at this time.
Even Meng Ran was a little at a loss at this time.
According to her idea, her vote should be insignificant, because through Jiang Yan, she knew very well how much these three veteran players valued the team, so no matter what she chose, it should have no impact on the final result.
"Captain, why?" Yu Liang's words were full of disbelief.
Qi Zhen understands Li Qiang's thoughts. That's because Li Qiang rarely showed restlessness last night.
The fear of losing his teammates seriously interfered with his choice. Qi Zhen knew that he was very conflicted at this time. On the one hand, as the spiritual leader of the entire team, he did not give up his sense of mission as a teammate and his own personality. He made the choice to start the mission. On the other hand, he had learned from the past that he had lost more teammates because of his uneasiness, which was like a huge stone weighing heavily on his heart.
"I just can't make up my mind about this multiple-choice question. If you really choose to leave the team to complete the mission, I will definitely stand with you." Li Qiang said slowly.
"The captain may not have told you that he had severe heart palpitations last night, and the last time this happened, many people in the team died. This was the decisive factor that led the captain to abstain. "Qi Zhen explained from the side.
"But I still can't ignore them." Li Qiang said.
"I understand, so I want to ask you now, do you insist on pursuing the traces of Li San and Lin Xiao? Regardless of whether you accept this task or not, if you insist, just nod." Qi Zhen asked, looking at everyone.
All four people nodded, even Meng Ran did not hesitate.
"As for the second question, please think about it before answering me. Are you willing to risk your lives?" Qi Zhen asked again.
This question is very heartbreaking. It seems to be comparing the safety of the two people with my own life. In fact, it is not just my life, but also my ideal and ultimate goal of coming to this world.
Only with destiny can we realize our ideals.
Yu Liang still nodded without hesitation, Li Qiang followed closely and nodded, but Jiang Yan and Meng Ran hesitated.
It's normal for girls to think more.
Qi Zhen thought about it, this just meant that they must have forced themselves into a certain death situation to think about this problem.
However, Qi Zhen did not want to remind them that there was only the possibility of falling into death, not that there was no chance of life.
Only with such willingness can one truly have no hesitation.
In the end, the two girls nodded without a doubt.
This proves that they have the consciousness to live towards death.
"Then what do you say?" Yu Liang looked at Qi Zhen and said.
"When you decided to leave the team and start the mission to find those two people, I had no choice, right?" Qi Zhen asked.
There are fewer people going, so it’s just a gift.
With only himself left, the rest of the game cannot be played at all.
As long as we all go and take care of each other, maybe we can still have a glimmer of hope.
"I said in advance that I can't guarantee that everyone will be alive this time." Qi Zhen continued.
"Which time can you guarantee it?" Yu Liang asked.
"Sir, are you going on your way!?"
At this time, the waiter's voice came in from the hall downstairs and through the open door.
"Let's leave after lunch." Zhang Dacai said.
"Okay! I'll ask the chef to cook it for you." The waiter agreed, and then he heard footsteps walking upstairs.
The waiter felt a little unhappy.
On this day, what's the matter? Several guests were lost without saying a word. The pretty girl just looked at them twice and disappeared. The remaining guests probably had some brain problems, so they kicked down four doors and threw them down. Not to mention a cup, the way he stares at me is as if he wants to eat someone. And the boss, he doesn’t look stupid at all. You asked me where your companion went. You all slept in the same room. You all I don’t know how I know!
Those gentlemen have been chatting with someone in the same room for almost a long time. I don’t know what shameful things they have to say in the room. If it weren’t for the sake of money, I wouldn’t come up and ask you to eat.
Thinking of this, the waiter's figure soon appeared at the door of the room. Seeing the tense atmosphere in the room, the waiter rubbed his hands and asked softly: "Sir, are you having lunch at our house?"
"We'll leave after eating. Please prepare the waiter," Qi Zhen said.
"Okay, dinner will be ready in a while. You are busy, you are busy." The waiter said with a smile.
"Let me ask, waiter." Qi Zhen stopped him.
"What's wrong with you?" The waiter stopped and asked.
"Can our guests leave the inn at will?" Qi Zhen asked doubtfully.
The waiter immediately became nervous, looked downstairs, then entered the house and closed the door behind his back.
"Shh! Don't let our shopkeeper know." The waiter said quickly.
"It stands to reason that as long as the guest leaves enough money, the inn usually doesn't care whether the guest stays or stays. But since we are staying in a hotel, we have to negotiate the money and get the goods. Before the guest leaves, he will tell me that I have to see what's in the room. Whether there is any damage or loss, if there are any mistakes or omissions, the shopkeeper will deduct wages." The waiter explained.
"Don't worry, the kicked-in door and the broken cup will be compensated according to the price." Qi Zhen said softly.
"Hi! Sir, I don't mean that." The waiter waved his hand quickly.
"What I mean is that if the guest leaves without saying a word and I don't know about it, then the shopkeeper will know that I will have to walk around without food, so I ask the guest officer not to let the shopkeeper know about those rooms. I didn’t know the guest was gone!” the waiter said.
This sentence was a bit convoluted, but Qi Zhen still understood it.
"Okay, no problem." Qi Zhen took out a piece of silver, weighed it in her hand, and handed it to the waiter.
"Is this enough money for you to repair the door?" Qi Zhen asked.
The waiter's eyes lit up, "Enough, enough! Don't mention four doors, even ten are enough."
"Okay, then the rest will be your reward." Qi Zhen said.
"Thank you, sir! I'll call you when the meal is ready." The waiter took the money and went downstairs in three steps at a time.
I'm just doing it for the money, otherwise I wouldn't even care about your food.
The waiter thought as he walked towards the kitchen, but there was a look of joy on his face that could not be concealed.
"Next, should we look for an opportunity to leave here with Zhang Dacai?" Yu Liang asked.
Qi Zhen shook her head.
"Isn't this what we just agreed upon?" Yu Liang became anxious when he saw that Qi Zhen was going to regret it again.
"What I mean is that we don't have to look for opportunities to leave with Zhang Dacai. He will definitely create his own opportunities to take us away. Do you want to make a bet?" Qi Zhen said.
"Just bet, what do you want to bet on?" Yu Liang asked.
"If I'm right, no matter what happens in the next mission, you must not be impulsive and all actions must be under my command." Qi Zhen said.
"Then what if I win?" Yu Liang asked.
"If you win, do the opposite. No matter what happens during the mission, I will listen to you whatever you say." Qi Zhen replied.
"Okay! It's a deal!" Yu Liang and Qi Zhen high-fived each other as an oath.
Jiang Yan on the side felt deeply sad because she and Yu Liang were both veteran players.
The meal was prepared quickly and can be called a sumptuous meal. Five people sat around the table, but none of them were in the mood to eat.
Their attention was all on Zhang Dacai who was standing beside him.
Zhang Dacai felt that going to Liyang to stay overnight was definitely the worst decision.
Are you afraid this store is a shady store?
Not only did Brother Huang disappear overnight, but the man in white was also gone. It seemed that two of the guests were also missing.
Do I have to report it to the official?
But I can't afford to delay my truckload of tobacco. If it gets caught in the rain, all the tobacco leaves will be scrapped. Not only will I not earn a penny, but all my efforts and hard work will be in vain.
Then he recalled the fierce operations of the remaining few people, kicking the door, whispering, and their faces were terrifyingly gloomy.
I can't wait for Brother Huang any longer. I need to eat and drink quickly and hit the road. I'll hurry up and reach Wuhu before sunset, and I can let go of my hanging heart.
Zhang Dacai was still worried, so he called the waiter to his side and asked, "I wonder if there is an escort agency in Liyang?"
The waiter smiled apologetically: "Sir, if any escort agency opens here in our small place, wouldn't it cost us our lives?"
Zhang Dacai just tried to ask without having high hopes, so he didn't look disappointed.
However, these words made everyone in the team beside them shine, except of course Yu Liang.
Yu Liang looked frustrated and seemed to have realized that he had lost.
"Sir, I wonder what you want to protect?" Li Qiang asked.
Li Qiang was originally a soldier, with a strong iron-blooded aura, and an upright appearance. If Li San were here, with that sly look on his face, he would definitely not be allowed to go up and ask, otherwise they would think that something was done to his goods. Heart.
Zhang Dacai cupped his fists and raised his hands towards Li Qiang and said, "Sir, I don't dare take this. I, Zhang Dacai."
"Brother Zhang, I don't know what he wants to give and where to send it?" Li Qiang returned the gift and then asked.
"It's just a truckload of goods, sent to Wuhu." Zhang Dacai said.
"Do you think it's feasible for us to send it there for you?" Li Qiang asked.
Zhang Dacai pondered for a moment: "Actually, it's only half a day's journey from here to Wuhu, and the goods are not expensive. I'm afraid we won't need so many people like you."
"It doesn't matter, we are going along the way. As the saying goes, many friends lead many paths. You can reward me with this money." Li Qiang picked up the empty bowl on the table and shook it in his hand, making the bowl spin. He flew towards Zhang Dacai and then stopped steadily in front of Zhang Dacai.
Zhang Dacai is also a person who travels all over the country. When he saw this move, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
What a beautiful hidden weapon skill!
How did he know that this was the feel of Li Qiang throwing thunder?
