Chapter 47: Old Zhu
I didn't have the slightest bit of goodwill towards Huang Lao's men, and I knew that it was definitely impossible to take me before Huang Lao got that flash drive, so I sneered, "Talk to me? It's not that I look down on you guys. You bunch of lapdogs, I guess by now, you don't even know what you're doing here, right?"
"I didn't know before I came, but now I know." He laughed.
I froze for a moment, I do not know if he is not a trick or really know what, according to our previous speculation Huang Lao is with us to death, so our actions he will have to sabotage, other they do not know what we are going to do, that is, no matter what you do, I have to get involved in the meaning of it.
"The villagers here say that there is a forbidden land or something in the mountains, it should be an existence similar to the princess grave child." The man smiled at me.
"That's all you know?" I laughed, Malagasy, I thought you guys even knew about that legend!
The man ignored me. Instead, he went out the door for a moment, supporting the two people who were watching the door, this action of his made me puzzled, and even brainstormed that after he came back, he pulled my hand and said to me with tears in his eyes that comrade, you have suffered, and that I am one of my own people ah!
The ideal scene did not happen after all. After he came back, he did next to me, handed me a child's cigarette and said, "Believe it or not, I'm just curious, curious about what in the world you guys came here to do, which is in my private capacity to want to know."
I looked at him and didn't say anything, still trying to trick me with a trick like that, think I'm three years old?
"I can help you, so you have to trust me now no matter what, you should be thinking straight, as long as Boss Huang gets that map, you and that beloved chick of yours definitely won't survive." He said, I looked at him, he continued, "Now is a legal society, not a movie, in this mountain, the one who has the gun is the boss, and out of the mountain, today our behavior is enough to make all of us wanted criminals, so no matter what the reason is, surely won't give you a chance to report to the police, you'll be disappeared in this mountain, as long as you're disappeared, that second uncle of yours Zhao Wuji also disappears away, disappearance cases are well handled, aren't they?"
I thought about it, shoot to kill, kidnap, these even if the triads, but after all, it is not the era of bandits, they will certainly kill us to silence us, so I said to him, "How do you save me?"
"It's very simple, just let you go." He said.
"You're not afraid of Huang Lao?" I wondered.
"He is not my father, long ago had enough of this old man, yin and yang, I just follow him to mix some money, you think it's the old society, worship the mountain he is the grandmaster? I get paid to do things only." He said.
I heard the feeling that there is really a scene, or that, I have not experienced such a scene before, a fierce encounter with these, I even unconsciously brought into those gangster movies, in fact, completely ignored the fact that is the old man Huang's these horsemen, are taking money to do the job, and nowadays society, the word of loyalty and righteousness is actually not very valuable.
"Huang Lao gave you how much money, my second uncle Zhao Wuji can give you ten times, with whom to do is not dry?" I immediately curtly said.
"Although I will not be the son of that surname Huang, but said that because of the money to sell him, that I will not, tainted my old Zhu's reputation, I, just curious, also do not want to really mess up the case of human life, so, you tell me what you want, my old Zhu is considered to undertake a favor, when the time to let you go, is considered to return the favor how do you like it? You go and ask around, my old Zhu is always true to his word." He said.
I finally chose to believe him, because do not believe also have to believe, this may be my only chance to live. Buddy really don't want to die a virgin, I heard that the king of hell won't even accept it.
And I feel that telling him also no harm, and then I know, of course, I omitted the matter that I have the jade pendant, after finishing, this old Zhu wondered: "In that case, Zhao Wuji to come here, is to find the whereabouts of his mother?"
I gave him a blank look and said, "What else? That Huang Lao is now like a mad dog, see us a few want to bite, think about it, open the Princess Tomb and what is the relationship with this place, this is separated from the middle of a hundred thousand eighty thousand miles."
The old Zhu lit a cigarette, shook his head and said: "Boy, say something you don't like to hear, if my old Zhu did not guess wrong, you should be your second uncle to play, he came to this place, surely not to find his mother so simple, you may not know Zhao Wuji, but the road people know there is an upstart fierce very much, he is ruthless up to the six relatives do not recognize, a ran away with the people of the old lady, the old lady, the old lady will personally come to find. Zhao Bajie would personally come to look for her? That's a laugh."
"Come on you, turn me meaningless, my second uncle no matter how ruthless, looking for their own mother also said the past." I said.
Old Zhu looked at me and said, "I don't know whether to say that you are really stupid or naive? Do you really just feel like you don't know the connection between this place and your village?"
His chesty words froze me in my tracks, and I looked at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense, tell me what the connection is."
Old Zhu said, "Listen, what's the name of your village? What's the name of this place? What's the name of this place? Broken Tail Village, one lock and one broken tail, do you think it's a coincidence? The young man who abducted your second uncle's mother, who you said was quite capable, why did he come all the way here after he ran away from your village? He's not a bucket listener. Besides, there's no such thing as a bucket list with a daughter-in-law, is there? This is the second, the third, just now I went to the village sorcerer's home to see, that enshrines the two, one is a snake spirit, a weasel spirit, you think about it, you lock the head of the village over there, the yellow skin boisterous, but here is the snake is the god, these things add up, you still think it is a coincidence? So I say your head was kicked by a donkey, are you convinced?"
This old Zhu put me said really contemplative live, these things I did not think carefully, lock head broken tail, these two words, to say there is no connection, then I think I'm a fool well, snakes and rats in a nest, the lock head is a weasel, the broken tail is a snake, just happened to also be worshipped together. Zhuo Anu even came here back then.
These are all connections, as if there is a mystery that has been laid since Zhuo Anu?
"My old Zhu is feeling strange, you do not know, I grew up fortune-telling said I was destined to violate the life of Taiji, this curiosity is heavier than others, that surnamed Huang seems to know something, but he just does not say, you say I can not be anxious? I always feel that there is a big article here, your second uncle this time must be hiding something from you, he came here, not to find his old lady so simple." Old Zhu said.
"I think, you convinced me, but now my second uncle's whereabouts are unknown, you have no way to ask, right?" I laughed bitterly.
"Some villagers saw that he went into the mountain with that sorcerer, if I'm not wrong, they should have gone to that so-called forbidden land earlier, I'm also going to go and take you with me, what do you think?" He asked me.
Old Zhu's words just now made me suspicious of Second Uncle, and now once I heard that when the crisis came, he even went into the mountain with the sorcerer like that, completely not caring about the deaths of Nine Two and me, my heart was also depressed, so I nodded my head and said, "Let's go then!"
"The deal is between the two of us, you also don't scream, I will find an opportunity to release you, as for whether you can escape the big mountain, it depends on your luck alone." Old Zhu said to me.
–With Old Zhu's care, I don't have to be treated as a prisoner after all, I ate something with them, filled up with enough water, and went into the mountain together, and I've been thinking about going into the mountain for several days, but what I didn't expect was that when I went into the mountain, I changed camps just like that.
What I didn't expect even more was that we rushed for a day according to the map, and when we set up camp that night, we encountered a heavy rainstorm.
In the jungle, the tent seems to be blown up, we hide in the tent, but still everywhere is water, these people are inverted bucket child origin, but also really not afraid of the harsh environment at the moment, I naturally can not care so much, I am still a prisoner it is not?
I smothered a quilt, just sleep, now I became a prisoner, but is a relaxation, because I know, there is something certainly have them to carry it, not my turn to worry.
To the second half of the night, the tent suddenly stirred up, I also stood up, but heard that old Zhu is cursing, I went out to see, but also was shocked, around the tent, densely packed, all the snake shadow.
