"So, he will definitely join up with his accomplices and kill us again." I analyzed.
"Yes, I'm in pain." He stretched out his hand to complain to me, and I helped him wrap it up carefully.
"Is this why we don't take the mountain road?" I asked him.
He nodded. "They may form a semi-circular ambush trap for us. We can no longer take the normal road. If we take the main road, they will keep biting us. If we are bitten, it will be difficult to get out of the mountain; we have to take another hunting road.
There is a cave in front of us. We can get there before dark. There is a rope bridge over the stream. After crossing the rope bridge, we can cut it off and they will not be able to bite us anymore, and we will be safe."
I was a little suspicious: "Cave? Rope bridge? We have no gold or silver, and they even sent one of the Thirteen Taibos, a drunkard, to hunt us down. How many pounds do I have? We seem to be on the way to the West."
"Let's go, let's go." After saying that, he started walking, holding my hand, and a group of people followed him.
We continued on the road, walking through the forest. The forest was dark and surrounded by dense woods. There was only a little sunlight filtering down from the thick branches and leaves above our heads. We kept walking around with him in the woods. We were already early.
I lost my way. The forest was eerie and scary.
The sun was setting, and we had never been so hard on the road, so fast, so long, for nearly 10 hours, but no one got anything. I was so hungry that I was shaking, but Na Miantang still kept rushing.
Na Miantang finally said: "There are still a few miles left. Let's take a break, drink some water, and take a breath." He looked at me in the darkness and saw my worried look. He smiled so friendly.
, so tender, no longer like the cautious look half a day ago.
"We are out now." He said, "We may have escaped them, but they must be looking for us on the original road."
"Are we really safe?"
"We will cross the rope bridge tomorrow. As soon as we cross the rope bridge, we will go to the county. We can leave by taking the train. They will not dare to openly kill us for a group of people. Tonight, we can't even get promoted, and we can't even do it in the cave.
No, let’s eat some fruits to replenish our energy and let’s have a good sleep at night.”
"The reason why they are hunting us?"
"Ask them." Miantang was able to refute me successfully with just one sentence, and he also succeeded in blocking me with his usual evasiveness and hesitation.
It was an extremely tiring day, and the danger had passed. Everyone was so tired that they were lying on their backs. The Pony Six took every moment to fall asleep on the grass, and Brother Gui went to scout the surroundings. I was too lazy to move, so I nestled under the tree stump to rest and meditate.
I felt relaxed. Just in front of me, Miantang was doing cleaning work by the stream. He always maintained mysophobia under any circumstances.
Suddenly a shadow was moving. I couldn't believe my eyes. I looked at everything in front of me like a nightmare: a person was motionless like a shadow there. He was tall and powerful. Then he started to move again, slowly.
Moving towards Na Miantang who was washing his face. The sound of water flowing in the creek covered the sound of moving shadows.
Suddenly he accelerated and pulled out a gun from his waist! He watched helplessly as a pistol was pointed at Miantang's temple! Miantang's face-washing action suddenly stopped.
I was so panicked that I couldn't speak. I suddenly realized that my blood seemed to have been cut off and I couldn't exert any strength. I screamed in my heart, but I couldn't make a sound. Suddenly, I remembered my hand and gun, and I raised it.
, aimed at the shadow, and pulled the trigger. The shadow stumbled and looked back at me, revealing an extremely calm and extremely crazy face! Moved a few steps. The shadow wanted to continue shooting, but Mian Tang obviously didn't want to.
Given this opportunity, Na Miantang let out a strange cry of joy or anger. Although he couldn't see it, he snatched the gun that almost killed him, and then used the handle of the gun to slam it again and again.
Smash the shadow. The shadow is dead.
The Six Little Horses were inexplicably looking at our arrogant young master. No one was going to help him. It was completely redundant to help a guy with amazing explosive power, even if he was injured.
He dropped the gun and walked towards me who was scared out of my mind. I kept raising the gun, trembling, I killed someone! He hugged me with both hands, and I felt like I was avoiding death. He hugged me tightly.
Looking at me, I guess he was scared to the point of going crazy.
"Maomao, you're such a good shot. You saved me. You didn't want me to give you my life." He was easing my tension.
"He was hiding under the tree, I, I, I couldn't shout -"
"We can't delay any longer. Let's go. If he can come here, the other accomplices won't be too far away. They will hear the gunshots. Let's go now."
"That Miantang, he wants to kill you, he has raised his gun -" I was still as nervous as in a dream, trembling all over.
"Okay, okay, okay, Chengcheng, will you tell me about her later?" He lifted me up, "Gui Ge, hurry up and lead everyone forward."
Everyone continued on their way, and we stumbled and quickly disappeared into the woods. About two hours later, we finally saw the small cave that Mian Chang had mentioned.
The cave was really as big as the entrance of a dog cave. We all squeezed in one by one and shrank into the cave. In fact, we were quite wealthy and could squeeze in about ten people without any problem. We were now completely swallowed up by the darkness.
The air was moist and cold, and the ground was as soft as a sponge. The pony six were born to be ignorant of life and death, all because the environment was too dark and the lights were dim. They were like a chicken coop, and everyone was groping in the dark.
You Siji hissed softly, and then he started to touch the other person's face, accidentally stepping on Ah Wu Donkey, who scolded: "What a shame, your mother! It's as dark as a mother's belly."
The non-kind person immediately jumped up and pushed Ah Wu Donkey, but the result was Xiao Ma Liu: "Your mother is pulling your ass! You push me."
The three of them were pushing each other like three shrews, fighting in a chaotic group, yelling at each other: "Your mother has a bad ass", "That's my nose", "You touched my butt" until.
Zhu Tou San and Niu Ba couldn't stand each other, so they pulled them apart.
"Get out of here, all of you! If you don't want to live, speak louder and attract gangsters!" I yelled at them, and they shut up in anger, with happy expressions on their faces. They were using their happy way to relieve themselves. We started out so poor, and
Will it ever end in such poverty?
"Brother Gui - so dark." I called Brother Gui, not wanting to cause any more trouble to Mian Tang. Although I saved him, he also saved us.
"I'm by your side." Gui Ge is a perfect guardian angel, which always makes me feel at ease.
A big hand groped over to me, pulled me and leaned against him. It was Miantang. My face was pressed against his chest, feeling warm and stable.
"I really want to thank you for being such a fearless girl and saving my life just now," he said.
"I didn't want to kill anyone. I was so frightened that I couldn't speak. Then I didn't know why I raised my gun and hit him -" I still tremble when I think back to the shocking scene just now.
"Thank God, Chengcheng, I taught you how to shoot."
"Can they still find us?"
"I can't find it. I have to leave for a while. Can you promise not to scare your accomplices?"
"You're not going back out, are you? No, you're injured, you can't go out, please." I said softly.
"I'm afraid I have to go," he comforted me. "We just left some very obvious traces. I have to get rid of them. They can't catch me. I will be back soon."
"I'll go with you. Brother Gui is enough to protect them here."
"Are you worried about me? Chengcheng? I won't let them find it so easily, don't worry." I felt his warm emotion.
"I won't let you go!" I pulled him. I didn't want to lose any of my partners in this dangerous period. Even though he often made fun of me, he was always measured, and we had this friendship of sharing weal and woe.
"Listen, Maomao, if something happens, of course it will be fine. Listen to me, if I don't come back, do you understand what I mean? If the gangsters find you, Brother Gui can't help you.
When you were there, you used this gun to kill yourself before you were discovered. There was only one bullet left and only one chance. Do you understand?" Na Miantang grabbed my hand and pulled something cold and heavy.
Put it in my hand, it's a gun. At the same time, whisper something to Brother Gui.
"Get back!" I growled.
But Na Miantang left decisively, and a group of us stayed in the dark, feeling terrified, because there were at least hundreds of bats in the entire cave, and I could still see their eyes flashing. I have never felt like this.
Feeling lonely and helpless, we all feel like forgotten children.
Why did he remind me to use the pistol? Will they catch him and kill him? Then they come back to us. I can use this pistol. After they found me, I had the courage to point the gun to my own head and use only
Will the remaining bullet pull the trigger? I don't know, everything is unknown.
No one moved. At least an hour later, he still didn't come back. The light coming from the cave entrance turned silver, and it must be a full moon night outside.
In a very far place, I heard the cry of the cuckoo, and then the cry of the cuckoo came from the other side, and then I heard the third sound. We all knew that it was the signal for the gangsters to communicate with each other.
They are almost there. Will they find Mian Tang? I never believe in fate, but at this moment I ask God to protect him for him.
I muttered something in a low voice, "Jesus, the Three Pure Ones, Tathagata Buddha, Allah, Guanyin, Subduing the Dragon and Subduing the Tiger, Emperor Guan Sheng, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Five Hundred Arrows, Father-in-law of the Land, Mother-in-Law of the Toilet, protect the Miantang and protect everyone's safety."
Suddenly, a figure rushed into the cave, and Mian Tang whispered, "It's me."
We finally relaxed.
That Miantang stretched out his hand to look for me. With his back against the rock, he pulled me close to him and nestled against his chest. He hugged me gently and comforted me like a child. I was so moved as if I had found a relative.
After a while, I stopped shaking and became quiet, because I appreciated his strength and his warmth. He touched my face and touched my tears.
