Chapter 53 An Unquiet Night

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 I put away the ancient paintings. The old silk paper was afraid of getting damp and exposed to the sun, so I carefully wrapped it in several layers of plastic wrap and hid it at the bottom of the bag.

Douyazai lied to Xiaoxuan and said that I got a picture of a beautiful lady. Xiaoxuan insisted on seeing it, but she frowned and said, "Hey, this must have been painted by some perverted man in ancient times. It's vulgar!"

The exploration work in the m3 area of ​​​​the turret is progressing slowly, which can be said to be unexpected.

There are too many stones in the ground, and in many places the Luoyang shovel cannot dig them down. They are either the kind of bluestone found in ancient tombs, or natural stones.

There is one more thing that I feel is a little strange.

During the day two days ago, I asked Brother Yu to go to the wasteland in the northwest corner of the turret and pick a lot of wild pomegranates. After picking them back, I asked Brother Yu to sit outside the camp and eat them every day.

The wild pomegranate was too sour and unpalatable. I couldn't figure out what it was doing, so I asked the boss.

With a calm expression on his face, he said calmly: "Yunfeng, I feel that he will be here tomorrow night at the latest, two days sooner than I thought."

"Who's going to take the lead?"

I looked around nervously and asked in a low voice: "Qiyue Climbing came to find us? That guy named Lin Shen, didn't I tell you that Qiyitian Climbing is not in the mountains at this time?"

He lowered his head and said with a frown: "I'm not afraid that they will show up. I'm afraid that they won't show up. If they don't show up, I have to give them a chance to show up first."

"Yunfeng, remember, the enemy hiding in the dark is like a poisonous snake. Once we fall asleep, it will crawl out and bite us at any time."

"What should we do?"

The words he said suddenly made me nervous.

He looked at me and whispered: "Don't be afraid, as soon as the snake shows its head, the eagle I trained will catch the snake."

The next day.

I put my avatar in the same way as a few days ago and asked Brother Yu to pick wild pomegranates and come back to eat as usual. This time Brother Yu took me with him.

When we got to the pomegranate tree, I asked: "Brother Yu, this stuff doesn't taste good and is very sour. Why are we picking so many of them?"

"Haha, Yunfeng, why are you so anxious?"

While talking, Brother Yu pulled down the branch and picked pomegranates.

But at this moment, his brows suddenly frowned.
> "What's wrong, Brother Yu?" I noticed that his expression was abnormal.

Brother Yu's frown disappeared in a flash and he smiled:

"It's okay, go ahead and pick more. This wild pomegranate is rich in vitamins and eating it is good for your body."

After I went back and wiped it, the bean sprouts were about to reach out and eat it.

Brother Yu slapped his hand away and said, "What's the rush? Pay attention to hygiene and don't eat and have diarrhea. I'll go wash it off."

Ten minutes later, Brother Yu came back again with a pile of pomegranates, and each person got one.

"Ouch, ah, ah, ah! It feels so good."

He peeled the bean sprouts and took a bite. He was so sour that he kept shouting.

I picked out a handful of pomegranate seeds and threw them into my mouth, chewing them while suppressing the sourness, and at the same time looking at my surroundings.

At night, a fire was lit. Instead of sleeping on the turret, we pitched a tent outside around the fire.

At around eleven o'clock at night, I sat by the fire and kept vigil while everyone else was resting. Looking at the crackling firewood, I always felt uneasy and unable to calm down.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew for no apparent reason. The firewood scattered and sparks flew everywhere.

"who!"

"Who's behind the tree! Come out!"

I suddenly heard movement behind a big tree not far away. I immediately raised my flashlight to shine at it and yelled at it.

"Come out! I see you!"

A few seconds later, a figure slowly walked out from behind the tree.

It's him.

That man who is a protector in July and calls himself Lin Shen!

He was carrying a bag, wearing black clothes, and had a faint smile on his face.

He got closer step by step.

I pulled out the knife fiercely and shouted nervously: "Get your head out! There's something going on!"

"Head!"

"Strange.?"

He looked me up and down and asked curiously: "I see you also ate pomegranates during the day, why are you still standing?"

I quickly recalled what happened in the past few days in my mind, and instantly understood what the boss meant.

I took two steps back with the knife in hand and said loudly: "What pomegranate are you talking about! How do you know we ate pomegranates!"

He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "I have been observing you secretly. Originally, I wanted to wait for the National Preceptor to come, but now it seems that there is no need. I don't know what the National Preceptor is afraid of you. In my opinion, you are just a bunch of brainless people at best.

Just a grave robber."

"The night before yesterday, I put medicine on the pomegranate tree, but today I saw you picking it off and eating it during the day? Do you know what medicine I put on it?"

"Let me tell you secretly, it's not pesticide, it's poisonous corpse wax powder."

"Boss! Brother Yu! Get up quickly!"

I thought about you, you idiot, but on the surface, I pretended to be panicked and yelled.

"Stop shouting. It's no use shouting if you break your throat, haha. People who have eaten corpse wax powder will not wake up. They will all die after waiting for two days at most."

He put away the smile on his face, looked at me and said coldly:

"The Imperial Master said that you have killed our compatriots in the desert, so I decided to kill you last. I will slowly torture you people. As for that woman, I will play with her to death."

I know that the woman he is talking about is Xiaoxuan. As for the "compatriot" he is talking about, it is 100% the party member who raises dogs in Alxa.

After saying that, he whistled to himself and walked quickly outside Xiaoxuan's tent.

My palms are all sweaty!

I don't know what my next plan is!

He just asked me to keep vigil! He didn’t say anything else!

This man opened the tent and dragged Xiaoxuan out!

"good"

He licked his lips, his eyes shone brightly, and he looked at Xiaoxuan with her eyes closed tightly and said, "This girl is very tender."

After saying that, he lowered his head and was about to kiss Xiaoxuan's face.

I can't wait any longer! I hold the knife and rush forward quickly
past.

At this moment, I saw Xiaoxuan suddenly open her eyes! At the same time, there was a flash of white light! A steel knife slipped from the cuff into Xiaoxuan's hand. There was a pause of no more than a second. Xiaoxuan directly held the knife and pointed at the man.

Prick it in the mouth! It’s very fast!

The man's instinctive reaction was also very fast. His head instantly turned to the left, and Xiaoxuan's knife slashed along the corner of his mouth, creating a deep gash!

"Bitch!"

The man squatted on the ground. After he realized what he was doing, he touched his face and saw that it was bleeding. He stared at Xiaoxuan lying on the ground with vicious eyes.

Seeing Xiaoxuan's expressionless face, the man frowned.

At this time, a tall shadow appeared behind him, blocking his shadow.

A big hand placed one hand on his head.

At the same time, a cold voice sounded: "You can't leave."

He reacted very quickly. He immediately slapped the ground with his right palm, turned his head sharply, rushed forward headfirst, and kicked Brother Yu on the waist with a tricky side kick!

Brother Yu took a heavy breath and received the kick! Then he grabbed him by the collar and pulled him over.

Holding his shoulders with both hands, Brother Yu instantly banged his head five or six times. After several times, the man's face was already covered in blood.

The man named Lin Shen's face was covered with blood, but he still laughed and said: "Hehehehe, deliberately pretending to eat poisonous pomegranates, wait for me to come, you people are so interesting, you haven't eaten? Can you try harder?"

Brother Yu frowned and didn't say a word.

Using his luck, he clenched his palm into a fist, and all the veins on the back of his hand bulged. Brother Yu pulled his fist with his elbow, stepped back half a meter, aimed at the man's face, and punched him!

That was a punch like a cannonball!

Everyone even heard the sound of breaking through the air.

Blood sprayed in the air, and the man tilted his neck back, feeling like his head was about to be knocked off!

His whole body was like a broken sack, flying three meters away! He slid on the ground for another two meters before he could stop!

Looking at it.

He was lying on the ground, rolling his eyes upwards, unconscious.
