Yan Wu dialed Dr. Yu's number again and said: "Increase the ransom to 9 million! That's what your young master promised me! The extra 4 million is his girlfriend's worth! "
"Huh? Which girlfriend are you talking about? "Dr. Yu paused for a moment before reacting," Oh, the one who was kidnapped with him? "
Yan Wu didn't cover the receiver this time and turned to me: "Brat, you're quite a scumbag. How many girlfriends do you have? "
I nodded shamelessly: "You flatter me, it's just a little too much."
"Bastard! I don't have a girlfriend even though I'm so handsome! "Yan Xing wanted to kick me but was stopped by Yan Wu.
"That's 9 million worth of hostages! What if you break it! "
"Yeah! Even if you don't respect me, you should at least respect money! " I curled my lips at Yan Xing, "Also, you're already a monk and you're still thinking about finding a girlfriend. If you're not sincere, when will you be able to cultivate the Daluo Golden Body?"
Yan Xing wasn't convinced, but his senior brother was talking to Dr. Yu, so he couldn't argue with me.
Professor Yu asked to hear my voice again. Yan Wu shoved the phone in front of me. "Say into the phone that you weren't abused. Don't play any tricks. Otherwise, you and your girlfriend will be in trouble!"
I had already started observing the stars in the sky, but my knowledge of astronomy wasn't good enough. I couldn't determine my position from the constellations, so I didn't have any valuable information to tell Dr. Yu.
"Hey! Dr. Yu! Hurry up and prepare the money to redeem me! I don't want to sleep in the wild today … "
Yan Wu immediately ordered the short and sturdy man to cover my mouth, then he took the phone away to discuss the method of payment with Dr. Yu. After 5 or 6 minutes, he returned with an ominous glint in his eyes.
"Ye Lin, you're quite bold to say unnecessary things …"
"I didn't say unnecessary things!" I pretended to be dumb. "It's not appropriate for me to spend the night in the wild with my priceless body. Didn't I ask Professor Yu to prepare nine million renminbi just like you said?"
Yan Wu snorted and ignored me for the time being. The kidnappers gathered together to discuss something. Then, Yan Wu pushed out a motorcycle from behind the rock. He sat on it and put on his helmet. His deep voice came through the helmet.
"The other party said that the money will be delivered to the designated location in two hours. I'll go there first to keep a lookout. If there are no problems, I'll bring the money back!"
"Boss, can you go alone?" The stocky man was a little worried.
"I've done this kind of thing many times. There's no problem." Yan Wu said as he started the motorcycle, "You two stay here and take good care of the hostages. I'll call you every 15 minutes to make sure it's safe. If my call is delayed for more than 10 minutes, kill the hostages and move to the old place, understand?"
"Tear both tickets?" The little monk Yan Xing, who didn't have a girlfriend, looked at Gong CaiCai reluctantly.
"I know what you're thinking," Yan Wu said as he gripped the motorcycle's handle tightly. "Even if it's just a warning to the other party, you should leave that scumbag Ye alive! He's worth more, you know! "
At this moment, there was finally no one covering my mouth. I protested from the side, "Hey! First of all, I'm not a scumbag! Second of all, your method of calling every 15 minutes is inappropriate! If you forget about it for some inexplicable reason, then wouldn't my girlfriend and I die unjustly? "
"Stop blabbering!" The stocky man pulled out a gun from his waist and pointed it at me. I could only remain silent in the face of the possibility of a rubber bullet shooting out of the muzzle.
Yan Wu left on the motorcycle for half an hour. As expected, he called his accomplices every 15 minutes. The night wind was even colder. Gong CaiCai was shivering like a sieve behind my back. I couldn't help but complain to the stocky man:
"Can you be a bit more gentlemanly? Bring some clothes and a blanket to cover my girlfriend! If she gets sick from the cold, wouldn't I be the one suffering? "
The stocky man snorted and didn't move. He sat on a small stool across from us and shrunk his shoulders as if he was also feeling cold. The novice monk was lazy and ran back to the van to warm himself up.
From the previous conversation between the kidnappers, I could vaguely tell that the two monks from Jianren Temple had a good relationship. The stocky man had a good relationship with the arrested Lao San. The four of them weren't completely united. Thus, I whispered to the stocky man while he was the only one watching:
"Aren't you afraid that your boss will run away with the money if you let him withdraw the money alone?"
"… You don't have to worry about that." The stocky man didn't seem to be affected by my provocation, but he clearly hesitated before answering. He looked in the direction of the van before calming down. It seemed like he was making sure Yan Wu wouldn't leave his nature behind.
His body language didn't escape my eyes. I smiled sinisterly and said: "It's hard to predict people's hearts these days. 9 million isn't a small amount. No one knows what your boss is thinking other than himself."
The stocky man who still had his face covered didn't respond to me, but he didn't stop me from speaking either.
"Actually, you guys never planned on letting us live, right?" I suddenly made it clear and it made Gong CaiCai tremble even more.
"Am, am I going to die? I haven't personally taken care of the bunnies, and what should I do with the plants I'm raising … "
The stocky short frowned, as if he felt that Gong CaiCai's words, knowing that her death was imminent, didn't seem like the gold-digging girlfriend I had described before.
I quickly pulled his attention back and said: "Bro, you haven't killed anyone, and you haven't made up your mind to become a fugitive, have you? The evidence is that you never took off your mask. You're different from the two monks from Jianren Temple. You're still hoping to continue living a normal life, right? "
The stocky man's hand that was holding the gun trembled as if I had hit the nail on the head. I immediately increased my attack:
"How about we make a deal? If you let me and my girlfriend go, then the 9 million is yours! Since the boss and Lao Si don't plan on letting us go alive, then I don't need to make a deal with them! How about it? "
"That's easy for you to say …" The stocky man didn't seem to agree with me on the surface, but he was no longer pointing his gun at me. I could tell he was tempted, but he didn't have a feasible plan to follow.
"You have a gun, you're the only one out of the three of you." I reminded him, "Even though it's loaded with rubber bullets, it's still a rare advantage. Why don't you go to the van right now and tie up and gag Lao Xing, the lazy Lao Si? He's only responsible for answering the boss's phone calls every 15 minutes, so you just have to say Lao Si is asleep … "
They say you get stained by the company you keep. After talking to Ai ShuQiao multiple times, it seems my ability to bewitch people has also increased.
"Who knows if you really have money?" The stocky man pointed his gun at me again, "Maybe you're a scammer. Forget about me, even our boss might not be able to get the money …"
I could tell from the stocky man's eyes that he was bluffing, so I sneered: "When I was unconscious, did you guys take my wallet? Why did you freeze for a while when you checked my wallet? Didn't you look at it a few times? Did you find something that your partner didn't? "
The stocky man replied with a constipated "En". I knew there was a way.
What he found in my wallet was no doubt my black American Express card that was no longer valid.
Although Ai ShuQiao froze the usage of this card, I didn't throw it away. I still kept it in my wallet so I could take it out one day to scare people.
The stocky man looked at my AmEx black card several times, but he didn't tell his companions. It meant that he was meticulous and had his own thoughts. Maybe he had seen the introduction of the AmEx black card somewhere and thought that he could earn a lot of money with this unlimited overdraft card.
"Bro, the American Express black card has to be signed by the owner." I said with an expression as if I saw through his plan, "Also, spending it anywhere will expose your whereabouts. For your own good, don't carry that card with you."
The short, stocky man gritted his teeth. I could see it through the mask.
In order to strike while the iron is hot, I pointed at Gong CaiCai who was on the other side of the apple tree.
"What do you think of my girl's family? If she contacted her parents, how much would they pay to redeem her? "
The stocky man said casually: "2-3 million, boss …"
"That's right." I nodded mysteriously, "Think about it, my girl is worth over 3 million. If I use her as a reference, then I'm still handsome and rich, then …"
"How are you handsome?" The stocky man ridiculed.
"You … it's not up to you to decide if I'm handsome or not! My girl thinks I'm handsome! "I said angrily," She told me more than once: 'I love money the most! I'm willing to do anything to lie on a pile of money every day! '"
"Is your girlfriend that materialistic? You can't tell from her appearance … "The stocky man didn't believe me.
"Tsk, you can't judge a book by its cover!" I curled my lips, "Ask her if you don't believe me."
I hit the apple tree with my back as I spoke, reminding Gong CaiCai to cooperate with me.
Gong CaiCai had no choice but to repeat with a trembling voice: "I … I love money the most! I'm willing to do anything to lie on a pile of money every day! "
Perhaps the young novice monk had fallen asleep in the van. I had talked to the stocky man for a long time, and now Gong CaiCai had repeated her shameful words in a high-pitched voice. However, the van didn't react at all.
