Chapter 38: Rescued
I was trapped in this abandoned factory for three days and three nights, these three days and three nights, I started from praying that my second uncle and Jiu Liang don't come to save me, to later on I prayed that they can come to save me. This is an extreme contradiction, I am afraid that they will be implicated by me, but I am also more afraid that if they really do not come to save me, what will I do, will I die here? The darkness, the coldness, the hunger, made me miss the Locked Head Village children immensely, even if it was just a white bread steamed by my old lady, I felt like I could eat a bunch of them in one breath.
Finally, I heard the sound of the door opening, then footsteps slowly came over, and then several flashlights hit my face almost simultaneously. Shining my eyes almost can not open, I do not have the strength to speak, and do not want to speak, because I do not know who the people who come in the end is who?
The person who came there cut the rope on my body, I saw a handsome face, this person, but it is He Pingan, who I have had one-sided acquaintance with. I scanned the circle, saw a few other unfamiliar faces, and slowly closed my eyes.
At that moment, a wave of unspeakable loss cut through my heart, cutting out a heavy wound, this feeling is even more difficult than death.
I was conflicted as to whether or not Second Uncle had come to save me, yet, I couldn't accept that he and Jiu Liang, the two people I considered closest to me, hadn't come when I was being captured, what were they busy with? Can they really just ignore my death?
When I woke up, I was already in the hotel room, sitting on the sofa, one is He Pingan, the other, is that spiteful and capricious girl He Qinghua, He Pingan saw me wake up, came over to me and touched my forehead and said, "Luckily it's okay."
"My second uncle and Chen Jiuzi?" I asked, this is my current most concerned about a problem, because I suddenly thought, perhaps they do not come to save me. It was also because they themselves were not in a position to do so?
"They have already left first." He Pingan looked at me and said.
I closed my eyes once more, gone first? At a time when I was caught by Li Dangguo and my life and death were uncertain, the two of them were able to leave first?
–I stayed in the hotel for a day, other than the psychological difficulties, the rest of me was fine, I was just a bit overly tired, even though I was very hungry, I froze and drank thin porridge for a day, I also learned about what happened in the past few days during this day.
He Xiaoyu finally let the old man of the Li family step in and press Li Dangguo a little bit, this is the reason why I can finally be rescued, and I didn't guess wrong before, that abandoned factory is indeed a trap, using me as a bait, and Li Dangguo's intention is to let me die of starvation inside if my second uncle Zhao Wuji doesn't go to save me.
"Brother San Liang, if it wasn't for me begging my grandfather, you would be dead, what? Do you want to consider giving your body to me?" He Qinghua was still being bratty and capricious at this time.
And I at this time, not half the mood to flirt with him, I asked He Pingan said: "What's going on in the end?"
"Now the situation is very complicated, open is promised my grandmother together into the mountains of Huang Lao, but ultimately chose to help Li Dangguo, in order to everything to grab in front of Huang Lao, your second uncle and that girl advanced into the mountains, but you do not have to feel bad, I know what you are thinking in your heart, they are on the verge of going away, my grandmother with them to ensure your safety. " He Pingan seemed to know what I was thinking mentally.
"Bullshit, if I were, I definitely wouldn't leave you behind and go together, so that girl is unreliable, not just a bigger chest than me." He Qinghua interjected again.
"Qinghua you shut up." He Pingan glared at her before she spat out her tongue and quieted down.
He Pingan said, "San Liang you rest for another night, tomorrow if you feel right, we should also set off."
"Go where?" I wondered.
"Take the other road and catch up to them." He Pingan said to me.
"I'm going too!" He Qinghua called out.
"Grandma told me before we went out that this time, if you're naughty again, I can just tie you up and throw you into the Canglan River." He Pingan glanced at He Qinghua and walked out. He Qinghua is a naughty child, afterward begged me for half a day to let me take her this time as well, I was in a mood that I didn't want to talk to her at all at this time, after a while, she muttered with her mouth muttering a sentence so meaningless and walked out.
My mood this day is not good, choice, nine two choices, this is the thing that makes me the most sad, in my life is in danger, she chose to go with the second uncle to find Zhang Xianzhong's treasure, rather than stay to save me, this may be telling me an answer, I, the one who got her body by mistake, is still not as important to her as the second uncle. I know maybe I am too sensitive, but I have no way to control my own feelings. The word love is really the most intoxicating and exhausting.
That night, I slept very insubstantial, in the next day, He Pingan drove the car, the two of us on the road, to where I simply do not know, He Pingan drove, saw me dead calm, threw me an IPad said: "Don't be dead calm, there are Zhang Xianzhong's information on it, you can look at it first."
I took the tablet, looked at the above information about Zhang Xianzhong, with my previous understanding is similar, Zhang Xianzhong this person, the history of mixed reviews, some people say that he kills like a man, like to eat women's meat and so on, is very famous for his seven kills monument, but there are people who say that this is false, the real Zhang Xianzhong is a war body first military rule of the army of the good generals, that he kills like a man, only the Qing government to the slaughter of Sichuan Zhang Xianzhong was an emperor, that is, he was the emperor of the Great Western Kingdom.
Zhang Xianzhong has done the emperor, is the Great Western State, this person for the time being not to go to more tables, the most important thing is that, Zhang Xianzhong's treasure countless people have played the idea, from the Qing Dynasty emperors began, to later Yuan Shikai Chiang Kai-shek Japanese, are still looking for the whereabouts of this treasure, but have not found.
This makes my heart feel no plan, so many people, so blatantly have not found something, we rely on a remnant of the map, can we really find it?
I too long did not read the words, read for a while only feel dizzy, threw the tablet to the side of the He Pingan said: "You have been into the mountains and old forests? Are we really alone this time?"
I did not expect me to ask this sentence, He Pingan not only did not speak, but to find a roadside child to the car to stop, he was silent for a long time before I said: "Zhuo Anu's purpose is Zhang Xianzhong treasure, this is the presumption that Zhuo Anu is not for the sake of the power, it is only possible that it is for the sake of the money, this presumption you see established? "
"Maybe, otherwise I really can't think of a reason." I said.
"In fact, everyone knows it's fake, including you, Zhuo Anu is definitely not for Zhang Xianzhong's treasure, my grandmother lied. Back then in my eldest uncle left, is left a blood with the weasel skin is not false, but there is also a map, was hidden by my grandmother, crocus stole out when I was a child, was my grandmother gave a beating, after that, crocus never dared to mention that map to anyone, but no one knows, that map was seen by me." He Pingan said.
"What diagram?" I asked.
"A red lotus pattern, or rather, a blood-colored lotus pattern." He Pingan said.
I was instantly interested, the lotus pattern itself was very sensitive to me, my grandfather had a black lotus flower tattooed on his back after his death, and my second uncle's back, also had a blood-colored lotus flower! I didn't know if the red lotus flower in He Pingan's mouth was the same as the one tattooed on my second uncle's back, but my subconscious mind told me that there should be a connection!
"A blood-colored lotus flower?" I asked pretending to be hearing about it for the first time.
"Yes, the same blood-colored lotus, I once saw me on Zhuo Anu's back, I was a child at that time, and saw Zhuo Anu changing her clothes, and unintentionally saw the lotus, so when I first saw the picture that was hidden by my grandma, I thought that there was no need for my grandma to hide it at all, because what that picture represented might mean that my eldest uncle was the one that went to look for Zhuo Anu. But it was a recognized secret in my family, and I thought that my grandmother was afraid that my eldest uncle's disappearance would be inevitably linked to Zhuo Anu." He Pingan said.
"But later I realized that I was wrong, Grandma hid that picture so that my grandfather wouldn't see it, because behind her back, there was also an identical blood-colored lotus totem." He Pingan looked at me and said.
He was telling me something!
