How could it be...he won't come back until tomorrow night?
We bumped into each other, and Brother Yu and I both looked unhappy.
Uncle Xue rinsed his mouth and spit out the toothbrushing water.
"Yunfeng is back. I see you are carrying your bags. Have you borrowed your things?" Uncle Xue asked with a smile.
Borrow something? What thing? I didn't react.
Uncle Xue casually put the toothbrush cup on the window sill and said: "I came back yesterday afternoon, and Xiansheng called me. We also talked on the phone in the evening, and he said that you went to borrow fire (explosives) from other places."
I don't understand it anymore.
last night?
Last night we were digging a well under the cave! There was no cell phone signal at all! How to make a call! Also, the boss said he didn’t bring a cell phone!
Brother Yu touched me, and I came back to my senses. I immediately said with a smile: "Yes, that's right, uncle, we went to borrow a fire from another place. The inspection is strict now and it's not easy to handle. It's in Brother Yu's bag. Yes
Brother Yu?"
"yes."
Brother Yu immediately took off his bag, took out the wooden box from the bag and opened it.
"That's it, old-fashioned fire detonators, very powerful."
"Okay, quickly cover it."
Uncle Xue glanced at the detonator and let us in, closed the door, and then called the boss in front of us and turned on the speakerphone. I heard clearly.
The reason why Uncle Xue didn't suspect anything was because during the few days he was in the hospital, the "boss" called him every day, mainly asking how Li Tiecheng was injured, when he would be back, and so on.
I even told Uncle Xue yesterday that we were going to find someone in another place to borrow a detonator.
The instant reaction in my mind was that this was definitely not Boutou. Boutou had been with us from beginning to end. Besides, how could we make a phone call when there was no signal under the pond, and we made one call every day.
Is it Ah Chun?
That’s not right... Achun was also with us the whole time.
Uncle Xue didn't see what I was thinking. He sighed and said, "Hey, Lao Li's condition is temporarily stable, but he still has sequelae. I heard the doctor said he needs to take medicine all year round, and he can't speak clearly after he wakes up."
.”
"We are about to go into the water. Without one person to help, we don't know if we can still find Lao Wang." A trace of worry flashed in Uncle Xue's eyes."
The kettle was turned on in the house, and I poured two cups of hot water. With the excuse that the water was too hot and I needed to dry it, I quietly left the hospital and ran to the toilet.
"Xiaoxuan, where's the boss? Give him the phone quickly."
"Yunfeng."
"Boss, something happened."
I hid in the toilet and lowered my voice and said, "Uncle Xue came back early and saw a few of us. What should I do? When will you come back?"
Unexpectedly, he couldn't hear the panic in his head, so he said: "I understand, don't panic, everything is expected, just pretend you haven't seen me in the past two days, and don't worry about anything else."
As he said this, his voice gradually became deeper and deeper.
"If he were my junior brother, he would be able to tell."
"On the contrary, if he can't see it...then he's not my junior brother."
"I'll go back right away and hang up."
An hour later, Baotou and the others also came back. Uncle Xue chatted with Baotou for a while, but saw nothing unusual.
While the two of them were chatting and drinking tea, I gave Ah Chun a wink, meaning to go out and talk.
When I walked outside the gate, I couldn't help it anymore. I frowned and asked: "What's going on? The fake leader who has been calling these days is not you. Who is it?"
"Fake leader?"
Ah Chun covered his mouth and said with a smile: "I've heard of the fake handle, but I've never heard of the fake handle. You're still too young. Wang had arranged these things ten days ago."
"Since you are his apprentice and the king is so interested in you, come with me. Do you think I got you three hundred thousand for nothing?"
There are many unoccupied old houses in the village. When young people get married, the women ask for new houses. In recent years, fewer and fewer old houses have been renovated in the village. Those who have some savings in their families have gone to the county to buy houses.
Baotou and Uncle Xue were still drinking tea and chatting in the house. Ah Chun took me around a few corners and finally stopped in front of a villager's old house. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the door three times.
Someone opened the door, and I saw a young girl in her early twenties standing behind the door. The girl had long hair and wore jeans. She was a little strange. She wore a metal mask with half of her face, only half of her face was exposed.
The girl hugged Ah Chun, took out a mobile phone from her pocket, and handed it to me.
When I looked, it was the cell phone in front of me.
Achun turned to look at me and said, "Excuse me, she doesn't like to talk."
