There was not even a single street lamp in the dark village, except for the stars in the sky, there was no light in sight, like an abandoned village in the barren mountains.

"Isn't there a power line in this village, why isn't there even a light?" Zhuang Zhuang looked around with a flashlight, the bluestone courtyard, the bluestone wall, if no one lived in it, it was impossible, but the existence of this village also looked quite ancient.

"What's the matter, do you still want the whole village to be brightly lit and welcome you?" Xiao Qi cut and rolled his eyes contemptuously. This is the most normal thing Xiao Qi said after leaving the mountain, although it does not mean that she has completely recovered her excessive fright, but at least she has calmed down a lot.

"I mean it's so dark, I can't even find a hotel or anything, and the map shows a village and a few roads, and I don't know where to sleep tonight. If I had known this, I might as well have set up a tent in the forest and slept for the night!" Zhuangzhuang's retort seemed to be as weak as his stomach, and he even cooed twice in the dead of night.

"Yo, then why didn't you say it before, there were many complaints all the way, and people's ears were about to become inflamed. ”

"I'm not just talking about it, I'm really hungry!"

"Haha......" Several people laughed at the same time, and they couldn't even hold back the sound of their plain cold faces.

In the middle of the night, they could find an open place to set up their tents, but the rumbling stomach was indeed a big problem. Now that the altitude is a little high, the temperature at night is even lower, and there is no energy supply, tomorrow will be a very severe test for each of them.

I don't know if they laughed too wildly, the wooden door of a small courtyard more than ten meters behind them creaked open, and the light of a flashlight shone on them, and with a happy surprise, the man actually took a few steps closer to them.

"Ah, big brother, are you really you?" the man called out to them when he opened his mouth, and they were all confused, they didn't even know what this place was, let alone know who they were.

"Do you know us?" asked Lin Qiudu.

"Of course I know, you come to live in my house!" The other party's enthusiasm made several people happy, although there were still doubts, but they all pushed the cart and walked over, it is better to have someone to take in than to sleep on the street.

A few people approached and took a look by the light of the flashlight, but they didn't expect that they were really acquaintances. It was the backup of the previous long hair, the sixth son.

"It's you, what's the matter, your brother Qiang still refuses to let us go?" The corners of Lu Yunfan's mouth were hideous, and his heart was raised, this is their territory, if they suddenly make trouble, the current situation is not good.

"Oh, big brother, what are you talking about? Let's go in first, Brother Qiang is inside, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Lu Yunfan hesitated, the long hair was injured by him, if the other party wanted to retaliate, then he could only come forward to try whether it could be resolved peacefully, so he handed the bicycle to Yiming, whispered a few words to Lin Qiudu, and was about to go in with his feet, but was pulled by Lin Miao behind him.

Lu Yunfan was stunned for a moment, turned around and patted her hand gently, "It's okay, you guys are waiting for me outside!" turned around and followed the six sons into the courtyard.

But where can this make her feel at ease, hold up the bicycle and run inside. Yiming saw her abnormal movement and wanted to reach out to stop it, but with two bicycles in his hand, he had to shout strong.

"Catch her!" Zhuang Zhuang directly threw the bicycle in his hand and hugged Lin Miao tightly, once the strong body trapped a person, there was no way to break free, Lin Miao hurriedly stepped on the strong feet twice, but Da Zhuang gritted his teeth and didn't let go.

Yiming propped up the bicycle, held the flashlight and folding saw in his hand and said: "Miao Miao, don't be impulsive, I don't know what the situation inside is now, let's go, you can adapt here......" Yiming didn't take action yet, and before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Lin Qiudu again.

"Let's let Zhuang Zhuang go!" Several people were stunned, Lin Qiudu's deep meaning seemed to be understood by everyone, even Zhuang Zhuang himself. In terms of combat effectiveness, there is no one here who can compare with him, but his heart knot has not been untied, and his combat effectiveness cannot be brought into play at all, Lin Qiudu's suggestion is a bit of a persecution for him.

Therefore, they no longer insist, and among the several people, Yiming is the most able to stay calm at all times, so just in case, it is relatively safe for him to protect the two girls and their equipment.

Zhuang Zhuang hesitated for a moment, looking at Lin Qiudu in the dark, although he couldn't see the expression, he could feel the expectant gaze at him. So he took a deep breath and strode decisively to follow.

Seeing Zhuangzhuang's back disappear into the illumination of the flashlight's pillar of light, Lin Qiudu sighed, "Zhuangzhuang is not timid, the shadow in his heart needs someone to help him break through." I have tried many times, but it has not succeeded, but I believe that Lu Yunfan can do it. ”

Lin Miao smiled gently, Lin Qiudu's change made her very grateful, no matter from which point of view, it is very important for the unity of the team that someone can take a step back first. What's more, the cohesion of the team also needs him as the captain, and the current Lin Qiudu is what she has always wanted to see.

Now the only thing to worry about is the situation in the small courtyard, Lin Miao felt out the thin knife on his calf and held it in his hand, ready to rush in at any time.

……

The courtyard was also very dark, and I couldn't see the whole picture of the house clearly, but with such a sense of depression, I could feel that the small courtyard was not very big, and the house they were facing, the room to the west had a faint light, as if it was emitted by a small candle, and he was strong and tightly grasped Lu Yunfan's arm, not daring to leave for a while.

Lu Yunfan said to the sixth son: "Let your brothers come out, the black light is blind, this has to be done, and one accidentally will kill someone." ”

"Big brother, what are you talking about? Brother Qiang just wants to talk to you, but I don't dare to fight with you anymore! Let's go into the house. Liuzi smiled and led the way, as if he only had the slightest understanding of his words, and then opened the door and walked in.

Even so, Lu Yunfan still glanced at the dark surroundings vigilantly, glanced at Zhuang Zhuang, and entered the house one after the other.

Entering the middle hall, there is a room on the left and right, although this kind of stone house looks very strong, but this dark sense of depression makes him very uncomfortable, Lu Yunfan feels Zhuangzhuang's emotions, I am afraid that it is much more serious than him, because the blood on his arm that is almost grabbed by Zhuangzhuang can no longer circulate normally.

The two of them followed the curtain of the door into the room on the left, where there was a simple single bed and a dim table lamp, through which they could see a lot of beer bottles piled up in the corner, staggering.

Longhair was lying on the bed, holding a bottle of beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Seeing Lu Yunfan come in, he got out of bed with a brush of hair, endured the pain and laughed, took a bottle of beer and threw it over.

Lu Yunfan caught it with his backhand and asked, "Your place is so small, and there is only one bed, how can so many of us live?"

Longhair laughed, took a sip of beer and said, "It's really useless for me to want to stay in a high-end hotel, but these rooms are more than enough to sleep, and don't you have tents?"

The long hair poured a sip of beer freely, touched his nose, screamed in pain, and glanced at Zhuang Zhuang resentfully.

"I don't know your name yet. ”

"Lu Yunfan. ”

"Brother Fan, hehe, I have never served anyone in my life, which of the bastard boys from several nearby villages is not scared when he hears my name? But you are different. ”

"So what? What do you want to do? And your brothers are all hiding, right?" Lu Yunfan's words made Zhuang Zhuang a little nervous, clinging to his body, trembling slightly.

"How can I convince you, besides, those bunnies didn't really follow me, rich are brothers, no money is bullshit! The bald head has long been disobedient to me! No, after this incident, they dispersed before entering the village, and it is estimated that they will not mix with me in the future!" Long Mao sighed helplessly, and there was a little bitterness on his face.

Liuzi looked at the embarrassment of the long hair, and said: "They are just afraid that Brother Qiang will ask them for money to go to the hospital, these people are not righteous, if Brother Qiang hadn't taken them with him in the past few years, which of them would have bought a motorcycle?"

"What's the matter with you? It's all snatched, show off shit!" Liuzi was reprimanded by Gao Qiangyi, and immediately became dumbfounded, standing aside and not daring to say anything more.

"Brother Fan, the sixth son is not sensible, don't be surprised. By the way, what about your friends, why did you two come in?"

"They were afraid of an ambush, so they were waiting outside. Liuzi said first.

"Ambush, ambush, don't fucking pestle here, why don't you invite me in!" Gao Qiang said and kicked Liuzi in the ass, blasting him out.

Sitting down again, Gao Qiang pulled a strand of hair, and was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.

Lu Yunfan was happy, but when he didn't expect this robber leader to look like this, he asked decisively and simply: "What's the matter, just say it." ”

"Okay, Brother Fan is refreshing, then I won't hold it. I want to follow Brother Fan, no matter what you do in the future, I will carry a knife and lead the horse for you, as long as you are willing to accept me, I am willing to do anything!"

Hearing his words, Lu Yunfan was stunned, and so was Zhuang Zhuang, as if he thought he had heard it wrong, and pinched Lu Yunfan's arm fiercely.

"Xiao Fan, what did he just say?"

"You're pinching me, you're dead!"

"That's not it, is it?"

"I said you pinched me!" Lu Yunfan struggled to break free, and the beer bottle in his hand almost came out of his hand.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I pinched the wrong person. Zhuang Zhuang smirked.

"Gao Qiang, it's a peaceful era, what can you do with me, we're just a team of riders, after this is over, we're just looking for a job, each having their own peaceful birthdays, I can neither provide you with a job, nor can I take you to continue robbing, your idea is not right, do you know?" Lu Yunfan waved his hand and smiled awkwardly.

"I can protect you! Look, you may encounter robbers and thieves on the road, with two girls, you definitely need more bodyguards, and the most important thing is that I am optimistic about you, you are not mortal, you will definitely do something in the future, I don't want a salary, you can take care of the food!"

Lu Yunfan glanced at Da Zhuang, and when he heard the rice, he thought of Da Zhuang's food, raising one is equal to raising four or five, if there is another one, it is better to give him some salary and let him eat himself.

"Brother Fan, don't worry, I definitely don't have this fat man to eat, I can eat half of his food at most!" Gao Qiang stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhuang Zhuang, suddenly thinking of Zhuang Zhuang's crazy appearance, even his nose suddenly hurt again, and he quickly retracted his hand again.

Zhuang Zhuang glared at his eyes and sneered, "If you have half of my food, Xiaofan will definitely not dare to ask you, and you can't afford it." ”

"Oh, hehe, I understand in seconds!" Gao Qiang touched his head embarrassedly and laughed.

"It's good that you understand, we will definitely encounter some dangers along the way, so no matter what, I can't take you with me, besides, your home is here, what about your family who is uprooted from home?"

"I don't have any family!" Gao Qiang hung his head gloomily, and the wine bottle fell to the ground, and the unfinished beer gurgled out, wetting the ground.

Lighting a cigarette again, Gao Qiang said in a dull voice: "I was brought up by my grandmother, and after my grandmother died a few years ago, I no longer have a family." ”

"So you ......"

"So I gave up on myself, stealing and fighting, there was nothing I couldn't do, I knew that I had done a lot of bad things over the years, and I should have been arrested a long time ago. If Brother Fan wants me to turn myself in, I am willing to do so, as long as I am released, Brother Fan is willing to take me in, I can do anything!"

Lu Yunfan was a little embarrassed, as the saying goes, the prodigal son does not change his money when he turns back. No matter from which point of view, Gao Qiang's willingness to abandon evil and follow good is a good thing for society, and if he refuses again, maybe he will still live by stealing and robbing like he does today. But how could he take him on the road now, he even refused to be an iron man at the beginning.

However, Zhuang Zhuang was stung by Gao Qiang's life, and his tears flowed as he spoke, without saying hello at all, and without any signs.

"Xiaofan, we still have a lot of travel funds, otherwise I'll go talk to Lin Da, just let him follow, anyway, he also has a motorcycle, and he won't drag us back......"

"His motorcycle has no brand, it's a black car!" Lu Yunfan interrupted Zhuang Zhuang in a low voice.

"Huh?

"Cold salad!" Lu Yunfan covered his face, really stumped by Gao Qiang.

Liuzi took a few people into the courtyard, locked the door, and then returned to the house first, looking at the atmosphere that suddenly became quiet, it was a little strange, but he didn't dare to ask anything, just waited quietly.

After putting away the bicycle, Lin Qiudu and the others carried the package into the house, the light pillar of the flashlight dangled in the room, and found that it was really the same as what Liuzi said, there was no one else in the house, so they all relaxed and got together to Gao Qiang's small bedroom.

"Yo, what's wrong?" Lin Qiudu asked as soon as he entered the door.

"Didn't we talk about it? Do you want us to move everything out again?"

"No, no, no, let's go to that house, although the place is a little smaller, but it's absolutely fine to get together for one night. Gao Qiang lifted his ass and pushed Liuzi out again, asking him to help them prepare a place to rest.

Zhuang Zhuang also let go of Lu Yunfan, ran out with Liuzi, and asked quietly, "Do you have anything to eat......?"

"Yes, there is a cellar on the east side of the courtyard, and there are turnips and peppers in it!" the sixth son told him with a grin, but Da Zhuang's face immediately changed to a capital "bitter".
