Qiao Laosan is a ruthless person. In his own words, he has already lived enough, and one more day of life is to earn one day. Therefore, in the eyes of the people on the road, his style of acting is unscrupulous, asking for money rather than life.

As the saying goes, the soft is afraid of the hard, the hard is afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal is afraid of the dead. Qiao Laosan's ruthlessness sometimes makes people avoid him a little, after all, no one wants to fight with a guy who doesn't want to die unless it is absolutely necessary.

Qiao Laosan is a ruthless person, but he is by no means a stupid person. He's a ruthless guy who can use his brains.

After talking to Liu Ancheng on the phone, especially the words reminded by Liu Ancheng before hanging up the phone, it still made him more concerned. Subsequently, he asked one of his subordinates to sneak into Wushi to investigate. After this subordinate came back, he reported to him in detail about Wei Rulan and Wei Chao.

After listening to the report of his subordinates, even a ruthless person like Qiao Laosan fell into deep worry.

No one is not afraid of death, and the more people who say they are not afraid of death, the more they tend to be afraid of death. The same goes for Qiao Laosan.

What outsiders don't know is that Qiao Laosan has a secret concubine in Northeast Harbin City, and this concubine gave birth to a son, who is now three years old. Even if he wanders to other places, he will still find a way to send money to this concubine every month. Therefore, he does not want to die, at least not afraid of death as rumored by the outside world. He also wants to watch his son grow up.

As a gangster, Qiao Laosan is no stranger to fighting, killing, but he is not familiar with the business world. He originally thought that Wei Rulan was just a rich girl, even if he knew that she was the eldest child of Tenglong International, he only regarded her as a richer rich girl, so he asked for more ransom.

However, when his subordinates told him about the situation in Wushi, especially after hearing the rapid response of the local police and the statements of senior leaders on TV, Qiao Laosan began to realize that he was probably stabbing a big basket.

Subsequently, he called Liu Ancheng many times, all of which prompted that the phone had been turned off. This made him feel that the situation was not good. If Liu Ancheng was killed by the client, it means that the client has also begun to cut the connection with this matter.

And the person who can make a few moves at a high price must not be a simple person. If even he is worried about having something to do with this matter, it means that this matter has really made a big fuss.

At this time, Qiao Laosan couldn't help but feel a little resentful of Tang Xiaohao. If this damn guy had made the situation clear to himself, he would not have kidnapped Wei Rulan, and I am afraid that the current situation would not have occurred. He didn't know that Tang Xiaomao was dead, and thought that this guy had escaped.

Suddenly, he realized that Tang Xiaomao knew his approximate location in the Tianshan Mountains, and if he was caught by the police, or by the Wei family, he would definitely sell himself. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Immediately gathered his subordinates and escorted Wei Rulan and Wei Chao to flee to the depths of the Tianshan Mountains.

Qiao Laosan also thought about directly releasing Wei Rulan and the others, but he was worried that after releasing the two of them, he would have no support in his hands, and he would not even have the means to let the police or the Wei family throw a rat trap. Therefore, after thinking about it again, it was decided to escort Wei Rulan and the two to escape. In this way, at least I have some bargaining chips in my hands.

A group of wolves fled like pigs, and after crossing the Dragon's Back Ridge, they found a cave and stopped. Because it was dark, it was dangerous to travel at night. In addition, after an afternoon of rushing to the mountain road, even their group of big men felt tired, not to mention Wei Rulan, a girl.

When she came down from Longji Ridge, one of Wei Rulan's feet was already broken, and Wei Chao was helping her to hurry. Both of them had no strength to continue on their way.

In the Tien Shan Mountains, there are many caves formed by melting snow and erosion, and some caves are connected to each other.

After Qiao Laosan and his group came to the cave, they walked in for a long time, but they didn't find the end, so they simply turned back and settled down not far from the entrance of the cave. Because he was worried that Wei Rulan and the two would escape, he sent a person to guard inside and sandwiched the two in the middle.

After settling down temporarily, everyone ate some dry food together. Wei Rulan and Wei Chao also got some, although they couldn't fill their stomachs, at least they could replenish the energy consumed.

After eating dry food, Qiao Laosan and one of his men went to the outside of the cave. The two men came to a sheltered place behind a boulder and sat down against the stone.

"Junko, I'm afraid this level will not be easy. Qiao Laosan said as he habitually took out a cigarette with one hand and put it on his mouth. He took out his lighter and was about to light it, when he suddenly thought that it would be easy to find out if he lit a cigarette at night, so he stuck the cigarette on his ear and put the lighter back in his pocket.

"Third brother, the lives of the brothers have long been handed over to you, you can do what you say, and the brothers will not say half a no. The young man named Junko said.

"Brother, I still trust your third brother so much, thank you. Qiao Laosan sighed, and then said, "Shunzi, you have been following me for more than two years, right?"

"It's been two and a half years. Thanks to the care of the third brother, Shunzi always remembers it. Junko lowered her head and replied.

"Well, it's been two and a half years, time flies so fast! Third brother, I also thank you for your support for me over the past two years. Qiao Laosan tilted his head and looked at the stars in the sky.

The Tien Shan Mountains are at a high altitude, and if the weather is clear, you can always see the stars at night, as if you are within reach.

"Some time ago, we were forced to have nowhere to hide in the Northeast, third brother, I listened to your persuasion and brought my brothers to Wushi, but I didn't expect to fall into today's predicament. ”

When he said this, Qiao Laosan's eyes glanced imperceptibly at Shunzi who was sitting beside him. Although it was night, with the help of the starlight in the sky, he still noticed the look of guilt that flashed on Junko's face.

Qiao Laosan seemed to feel a little cold, and his hands pressed the clothes on his upper body hard, then hugged his hands in front of his chest, and put his right hand under the clothes on his chest. He pondered for a long time, and at last, as if he had made up his mind, said:

"Junzi, third brother, I have a hunch that this time I am afraid that I will bury my bones in this Tianshan Mountain. I don't read much, but I've heard that 'when a bird is dying, its song is mourning, and when a man is dying, his words are good.' 'Before I die, I still have some confusion in my heart, can you help the third brother solve it?" Qiao Laosan looked at Junzi's eyes and said seriously.

A trace of panic flashed in Junzi's eyes, and then he regained his composure and said, "Third brother, please say, brother, I must know everything and say everything." ”

"Good brother, thank you first, third brother. Qiao Laosan cleared his throat and continued:

"Some time ago when I was in the Northeast, I took my brothers to hide in Tibet, and what puzzled me was that the police could always chase me everywhere I went. Now that I think about it, they could have caught us then. Strangely, in the end, it always seems that we are deliberately slow, and we always escape by chance. “

"Later, I listened to your advice and led my brothers to Wushi. You know, when we first arrived, we didn't know anyone, we were strapped for money, and we almost had a problem eating. Later, thanks to you getting acquainted with Liu Ancheng, he helped us take a job and got a large deposit. Brothers these days, it is with this deposit that they can eat and drink spicy food in Wushi. “

"After receiving this job, I was struggling with how to do it, how to make some moves in Wushi according to the customer's requirements. Just when I was struggling with what I couldn't do, it turned out that one day you took me to a bar, and we happened to meet Don Xiaohat in the bar, and we heard him boast after drinking. Then, you suggested that I use Tang Xiaomao to kidnap this rich woman who entrusted him to find Tianshan Snow Lotus. “

"You know, third brother, I don't know anything about the mall, and I don't know who this Wei Rulan you are talking about is. Later, I learned that it was the granddaughter of Tenglong International Wei Hailong. Speaking of this, Qiao Laosan sighed and continued:

"Shunzi, the third brother has never begged anyone in his life. I'm begging you to help me analyze and analyze this time, what's going on?"

As soon as Qiao Laosan's words fell, he saw this guy named Shunzi stand up suddenly, and at the same time pulled out a gun from his body at a very fast speed, pointing it directly at Qiao Laosan's head. He said in a trembling voice:

"Third brother, since you know everything, I won't hide it from you, brother. That's right, from the Northeast to Wushi, every step is being carried out according to the plan, but who is behind the scenes, please forgive my brother, I can't tell you, because I don't know. Junko paused, then continued:

"Third brother, it's not that I mean to betray you, I'm really helpless. Half a year ago, my mother got sick with kidney failure and needed a kidney transplant. Aside from the huge medical expenses, even the kidney source is not something that a thug like me can get. I was given a large sum of money and promised to help me find a kidney source and give my mother a kidney transplant. The condition put forward by the other party is that he wants me to persuade you to come to Wushi, and then act according to his command step by step. “

"Third brother, I was really forced to do so, and the other party promised not to hurt your life, so I agreed to help them. It's just that I didn't expect that this matter would get to where it is today. In addition, I didn't know Wei Rulan's identity beforehand, and I didn't know the seriousness of this matter until today, when the brother you sent to Wushi to inquire about the news came back to report. ”

After saying the above words like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, Junzi was still holding the gun and pointing at Qiao Laosan. But his hands trembled incessantly. He knew very well that Qiao Laosan in front of him was a ruthless guy.

Now, now that he has discovered the truth of the matter, he will definitely not let himself go. However, he did not have the courage to shoot himself.

Qiao Laosan put his shirt together with both hands and said, "Shunzi, thanks to you for explaining it to the third brother, otherwise, I would have died in a daze and become a ghost." ”

He looked at Junko, then at the stars in the night sky, and then said, "Don't be nervous, when you get to this step today, the third brother doesn't blame you." You're doing it for your mother's sake. Filial piety comes first. Come, sit down, and let's talk. ”

Saying this, Qiao Laosan didn't care about Junzi still pointing a gun at him, pulled Junzi's arm, and let him sit in the same place, seemingly not worrying that Junzi would shoot. He then asked, "You tell the third brother the truth, you really don't know who is in command behind this scene?"

Qiao Laosan's approach seems to have made Junzi let down some of his guard. He sat next to Qiao Laosan again, still holding the gun in his hand, but the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the ground, not Qiao Laosan's head.

Junko cried and said, "Third brother, I'm sorry, I was really forced. ”

"I said it all, the third brother doesn't blame you. Qiao Laosan said, touching Shunzi's head with one hand. Then he repeated the question he just asked: "You tell the third brother the truth, you really don't know who is in command behind this scene?"

"Third brother, I really don't know, that person calls me every time, and I have never seen him. Even when I was given money, I was sent by courier. Junko said.

Qiao Laosan was silent for a while and did not speak.

Suddenly, he said to Junko: "Junko, look at this sky full of stars, I really can't fucking figure out why some stars must be brighter than others? “

Junko looked up at the sky. And at the moment when he looked up, the dagger in Qiao Laosan's hand cut his throat.

Before Junko died, her eyes looked straight at the stars in the sky, there was unwillingness, and there were tears.
