"Brother Bao, we're too f * cking unlucky." Hu Zi grumbled as he chopped down the bushes in front of him. "Why is it raining so heavily for no reason?"
Bao Encang glared at him. "Isn't this your fault? Didn't you say that you know the situation in the mountains like the back of your hand? Didn't you feel anything when it rained so heavily? "
Hu Zi scratched his head. "Speaking of which, it's strange. Usually, when my dad and I go hunting in the mountains, we can smell the moisture in the air with just a twitch of our noses. We can tell if it's going to rain or how heavy it will be. But today, when we got out of the car and ran, I smelled it. There were almost no clouds in the sky, and there were no signs of rain! Look, there aren't any clouds yet. This weather is too weird. "
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way."
"Brother Bao, why don't we think of a way to go back? The rain can wash away the footprints we left earlier, and the police dogs don't like our smell. This is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing. The road has become more difficult to walk. Based on the current situation, we might not be able to reach Mozhi Town in another ten hours. I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid that you guys and this woman won't be able to hold on. "
Hu Zi pointed to Xi Lu, who was surrounded by the crowd. She was limping, and her face was covered in rain and mud. She looked extremely pathetic.
When it rains, it pours. Xi Lu's luck index today was as high as 10,000 points. When she was walking just now, she accidentally slipped and fell, and her ankle might have been sprained. Now, not to mention suddenly running away, it took all her strength just to stand.
Bao Encang looked at Xi Lu impatiently. "Jiang Yage, hurry up! Don't dilly-dally, or I'll shoot you and let you feed the wolves here, believe it or not! "
Xi Lu trembled. She knew that she had been made a scapegoat, but she didn't expose her identity. Instead, she gritted her teeth without saying a word and forced herself to keep up with Hu Zi's pace. She lowered her head and didn't make a sound.
Hu Zi turned back and said, "Brother Bao, don't make such jokes when we're in the mountains."
"What joke?"
"Don't talk about wolves. Although the most ferocious beasts in this mountain are bears and tigers, the biggest threat to humans is the wolf pack. They form groups and attack from the front and back, unlike lone bears. Some wolves aren't even afraid of gunshots when their ferocious nature kicks in. "
Dan Encang curled his lips nonchalantly. "I'm just saying. I won't really come."
"Sigh, if you believe it, it won't work if you don't believe it. When we're in the mountains, we have to be careful with our words."
"Alright, alright, I won't say anything."
"Do we continue forward or go back?"
Tiger asked again.
Wonc Encang hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone. He thought that if he walked further in, his phone would probably lose signal. Should he call his father and ask what the situation was like outside?
If he scolded her, she would just beg for mercy. If he scolded her too harshly and she didn't listen, she would just hang up and turn off her phone.
"Let me ask about my dad first."
Saying so, Wonc Encang turned on his phone.
Before he could unlock it, the caller ID lit up. It was Ma Song, the captain of Tongyuan's bodyguards. Perhaps he had been calling non-stop for the past hour.
Picking up the call, Ma Song's voice came through. "Boss! It's connected! Master Wonc has turned on his phone! "
"Give me the phone!"
This was Wonc Fatai's voice.
Hearing his father's tone, Wonc Encang subconsciously wanted to beg for mercy again. "Dad …"
Wonc Fatai interrupted Wonc Encang. "You little rascal! Do you know how big of a disaster you've gotten yourself into?! "
Wonc Encang was a little indignant. "It's not a big deal. I just kidnapped a female celebrity. It's not like I haven't done it before. "
"You still have the cheek to say it!"
"Why can't I say it? Dad, don't worry. I know the psychology of these celebrities very well. As long as I don't break her arms or legs, she won't be able to make a fart if she still wants to earn money in the future. Don't be fooled by how innocent they pretend to be in front of others. God knows how many masters they have to serve in a year. For people like them, no matter how much I torture them, they won't make a fuss. Otherwise, their reputation will be in tatters. I'll record a video of her later. She's even more afraid than I am. "
"Bullsh * t!" Money Bag was about to go crazy from anger. What kind of situation was this? His stupid son was still saying such reckless words.
He remembered what County Magistrate Hu had told him just now. Although he still didn't know Jiang Yage's identity, it was impossible for the two top military and political leaders of Cainan Province to call him at the same time. If County Magistrate Hu could say that if she lost a hair, he, as the county magistrate, would have to run away, and if Jiang Yage lost a hair, he would have to shoot Peng Encang, then her background must be beyond his imagination.
"Dad, don't be like this! If you only know how to scold me, I'll switch off my phone again. "
"Wait!" Hearing that his unlucky and stupid son was going to switch off his phone again, Wonc Fatai was afraid of him. His tone became gentler. "Son, listen to me."
Wonc Encang's heart skipped a beat when he heard that Wonc Fatai's tone had become unprecedentedly gentle. An inexplicable sense of danger rose in his heart, and he could no longer be tough. Instead, he felt a little flustered.
"Dad … Dad! What … happened? "
Wonc Fatai's tone became gentler. "It's all my fault. I spoiled you too much, and that's why you developed such a personality. I used to think that it was all your mother's fault, but now that I think about it, I'm no better. "
"Dad …"
"Don't interrupt me. Listen, time is of the essence, so I'll make it short. Run away now and don't come back. The further, the better! "
"Is it that serious?"
"I'm not joking with you. Jiang Yage has a powerful background. Even if you return her unharmed, I'm afraid things won't end well. According to some people, you have to be killed on the spot for the rest of us to survive. I'm already prepared to run away. Don't look back either. The further, the better. "
County Head Hu had misjudged Wonc Fatai.
All along, Wonc Fatai had always been decisive and strict with Wonc Encang in the eyes of outsiders. As a result, County Head Hu and the others felt that he didn't have much affection for his good-for-nothing son.
That was why County Head Hu had blurted out that he wanted to kill Wonc Encang in advance. He had even hoped that Wonc Fatai would have some way to contact Wonc Encang and calm him down before taking action himself.
But Wonc Fatai would never eat his cubs. All along, he was the one who was most protective of his cubs. His wife was just a way for him to save face.
No matter how much he tried to push the blame onto his wife, if it wasn't for him, the head of the household, who had turned a blind eye to it and helped Bang Encang clean up his mess every time, how could he have raised such a foolish son who didn't care about the consequences?
"O … alright."
Wonc Encang looked at Xi Lu's back view. The smugness and desire in his heart had mostly dissipated. Perhaps it was because of the cold rain on his head, or perhaps it was because he was frightened by Wonc Fatai's words.
"Wait!"
Wonc Fatai suddenly said.
"What's wrong?"
"Wait a moment. The armed police and the county's police should be entering the mountains soon. I've asked around, and they have police dogs with them. You might not be able to escape."
"What! Then what should I do! "
"Tell me your current location. I'll bring some people to meet up with you. If they really catch up … we, we'll fight them for a while! But … "
"But what?"
"But the real scary thing isn't the police. It's Chen Guang! Wonc, you've watched Wuxia dramas before, right? Chen Guang is the kind of hero in the dramas who kills a person every ten steps and leaves no trace behind! You must be wary of him. Don't think that you'll be safe just because you have a gun! "
"That's … that's impossible, right?"
"Look at the situation now! Do you think I'm joking with you? I'm going to risk my life to fight someone for you! Stop talking nonsense. Tell me your location! "
Wonc Fatai, who was sitting in the Bentley, gritted his teeth. He thought of the big guns in his trunk and decided to go all out.
Wonc Encang hurriedly called Tiger over and told him their current location, as well as the approximate route they had chosen at the last minute.
The father and son hung up the phone. Ma Song, who was sitting beside Wonc Fatai, asked doubtfully, "Boss, are we really going to do this?"
Wonc Fatai stared at him fiercely. "What else can we do? Watch my son die in front of you? I still have a lot of assets overseas. As long as we escape, as long as there's life, we won't have to worry about Young Chai. Otherwise, even if we really shoot Wonc down, I'm afraid we'll still be hunted down later. If Hu Jintao wants to escape, then even Master won't be able to protect us tomorrow. We have to rely on ourselves! "
"Brother Bun, what did your dad say?"
Tiger quickly asked Wonc Encang.
Wonc Encang gritted his teeth. "What else can we do? Run! We can't go back to Baishuihe County now. If we go back, we'll really die. We've stirred up a hornet's nest. That's right, that woman is a hornet's nest. "
He pointed at Xi Lu's back and said, "Just follow the route you told my dad just now. He'll be waiting for us in the car with his men. We won't go to Mozhi Town. How long do you think it'll take for us to reach the mountain road?"
"Three hours if we're fast, four if we're slow."
"That's fine. As long as we meet up with my dad before they catch up, we'll be able to escape. Don't stop! Hurry up! Stupid woman, you better hurry up too! I'm dead because of you this time. You have such a powerful background, why are you hiding it? If you had told me earlier, would I have attacked you? It's all your fault that we ended up like this! "
Wonc Encang took two steps forward and wanted to lift his leg to kick Xi Lu. Unexpectedly, Xi Lu quickened her pace and took a step forward, causing him to kick the air.
The rain and wind caused the temperature to drop exceptionally low. After walking for a long time, the pain in her ankle was so numb that she couldn't feel it. A strong desire to live supported every inch of space in her mind. Xi Lu's steps became firmer and faster, and she was just barely able to keep up with the others.
Her determination temporarily saved her life.
Since she had already decided to escape, once she showed any signs of not being able to keep up, dragging the others down, or showing signs of wanting to escape, Wonc Encang would shoot her without hesitation.
