"You can't kill us! I didn't steal your iron Buddha!"
I panicked when I heard that the old man was going to kill us all and bury us under the pear tree to accompany Wang Xiaoqin.
The old man took out another cigarette and lit it, took two puffs himself, and then put the lit cigarette into my mouth.
I chewed the cigarette and dared not move.
"Smoke, take a sip."
"We are considered friends, don't make it difficult for me."
I chirped, chirped, and took a sip.
Suddenly a sharp pain came.
He suddenly pulled out the knife from my thigh.
Heartbreaking pain....
I was in so much pain that I couldn't hold my cigarette in my mouth, and the lit cigarette fell to the ground.
Mr. Xing wiped the bloody knife on his coat and took out my cell phone from my back pocket.
"Call, call now, call your accomplice and tell him where the iron Buddha is found. Ask your accomplice to come over at 11 o'clock tonight. The location is in the abandoned warehouse."
"Hit!" he shouted loudly.
He wants me to betray my accomplices!
If this spreads out in the public, my reputation will be ruined... I wanted to delay and say a few other words, but suddenly I heard Brother Yu next to me say:
"Dial, Tian Sanjiu."
"Let me tell you."
The old man immediately dialed the number and put the phone in front of Brother Yu.
"Beep...beep..."
"Hello."
"It's me, I found something."
Brother Yu's voice sounds normal and calm.
"What news?" Tian Sanjiu asked.
Brother Yu said: "When we were applying cement, we found that the northwest corner of the warehouse had been touched before. It was inconvenient to have workers working nearby during the day. Let's drive the hammer drill here tonight. I suspect there is something underground under the cement."
"Got it." After a short conversation, the phone was hung up.
Mr. Xing nodded with satisfaction, "You are a good big guy. You talk less and do things well. Don't worry. I will make it easier for you in the end."
"How many of your accomplices do you have? Tell me what they look like."
Brother Yu said truthfully: "Two."
"One man is in his forties, with short hair, and the other is in his twenties, about the same height as me, with a crew cut, very strong, and his brain reaction is a bit slow."
"hehe..."
"I know even if you don't tell me. You're very cooperative."
Mr. Xing picked up the lantern, turned to me and said, "I'm not a lunatic. I just wanted to get acquainted and let you talk to each other. I'm not far from here. If you dare to shout..."
"Don't shout! Don't worry! We will never shout!"
"Haha... don't be afraid to shout. No one can hear you if you shout here."
Leaving behind a word, he held the lantern and opened the door.
There was a sound of locking the door, and the hut fell into darkness again, and it was eerily quiet.
"Brother Fish? Brother Fish?" I shouted softly.
"What's wrong?"
"You called Tian Sanjiu just now. Did you have any code for him?"
"There's no secret code, there's a shit secret code."
I was anxious and didn't dare to shout loudly.
I said Brother Yu, please think of a way quickly, use the corner of the table, broken glass or something to break the rope.
Brother Yu's voice came.
"Yunfeng, have you watched too many movies? I'm tied up like this. Where can I find broken glass on the corner of the table for you? You can find it for me and I'll grind it. How are your legs?"
I said I was about to die, about to bleed to death.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay. You can't die. I've been following him for several weeks. Do you think Tian Sanjiu is the kind of person who is easy to mess with?"
"This guy named Tian doesn't care about anyone else except Luojia Mountain."
"I've thought about it."
"The old man wants to kill Tian Sanjiu at night. He must ambush him and he will definitely take us there with him."
Brother Yu's voice gradually became deeper.
"As long as the rope is untied, I can bring him down in less than five seconds."
"Yunfeng, don't talk or yell now. Save your energy until the evening. Tian Sanjiu won't show up until he sees us, so we're fine now. You listen to me, press your thighs hard, and take a few deep breaths."
"Are you feeling better? See if your legs are still bleeding?"
I shook my head and said it was too dark for Brother Yu to see.
...
The room was dark and I didn’t know what time it was. Brother Yu had been resting with his eyes closed. It felt like a long time had passed when the sound of the door opening came.
Mr. Xing came in carrying a lantern and a sack.
Brother Yu winked at me calmly, and I immediately understood what he meant.
According to what Brother Yu said, as long as Mr. Xing dares to untie the rope, we will do it.
"Big man," Mr. Xing suddenly said, "You can give it a try if you want, but I'm afraid you'll be too slow..."
