Chapter 36: Bing Ge
86_86324Uncle Wang looked at the man, did not speak or make any movements, with a blank expression on his face, probably feeling that he had been deceived by this person, and he felt a little unhappy.
The man on the grave saw that Uncle Wang did not do what he ordered, so he quickly fired another shot into the sky and shouted, "I said to put down the gun!" ”
Uncle Wang was being pointed at the muzzle of the gun, without any choice, seeing that he had no choice, he had to obediently put the gun on the ground.
"Hands on your head!" The man commanded again.
Uncle Wang did so.
Then the man jumped off the grave, but the gun in his hand was always pointed at Uncle Wang. He walked up to me, stepped on my dropped gun with his peripheral vision, and kicked it out of my reach. The whole movement is very smooth, and it seems that this is not the first time that has been done here. And he didn't even look at me, probably because he didn't think I was a threat.
Only then did I realize that this man was wearing a camouflage uniform and some equipment. The gun in his hand is also a black Type 95 rifle, and it seems that he is not a bandit, but a soldier. He had short hair and was about the same age as me, maybe a little younger than me.
I tried to get up from the ground, but as soon as I moved, the man immediately yelled, "Don't move! ”
I had no choice but to give up.
Seeing that the situation was being brought down by him, the man opened his mouth and asked us, "Where did you get the gun?" ”
Uncle Wang held his head in his hands and stared at him without speaking. Thinking that this man was a soldier and not a bandit, and that if we explained it clearly and according to his intentions, there should be no problem, so I replied, "Pick it up, pick it up from the police." ”
"Picked up?" He tilted his head in confirmation, but still held his gun and stared at Uncle Wang.
"Hmm." I say.
"Where did you pick it up?" He asked again.
"Toll booths, there are police officers standing guard at the toll booths." I replied.
He thought for a moment, and then said, "What are you doing here?" ”
"There was a landslide on the road ahead, and our car couldn't pass, so we got out of the car and looked for a place to stay." I replied truthfully.
"I see four of you, what about the other two?"
"Wait for us where you are," I said, "and I can assure you that they will be waiting where they are, and they won't be able to follow you and threaten you." We're not bad people, and when we saw you hiding in the grass, we wanted to know who you were, so we chased after you. ”
"And what did you all do before?" He asked again.
"Of the four of us, three of us are students, and the one you pointed at the gun is also a soldier." I replied.
I don't know why I added the word "also", maybe it's to get close to him.
"If you don't believe it, we can show you, and when you see their appearance, you will believe me." I continued to say to him.
He pondered my words for a moment, then walked up to Uncle Wang, kicked away the gun he had placed on the ground, picked it up and carried it on his back, and then retreated to my side. While picking up the five or six chongs that had fallen to the ground, he said to me, "You get up and lead the way." ”
I stood up, gave Uncle Wang a look, and walked back with Uncle Wang. The man walked around behind us, kept a distance of two or three meters from us, and followed us into the bushes like prisoners of war.
Brushing aside the leaves in front of me, I prayed, Zhou Zhihong and Duan Ke, don't follow. If he suddenly bumped into them at this time, or if the sound of them walking could be heard, the soldier brother behind him would definitely think that we had deceived him, and he would directly call for a bullet.
When I walked back to the top of the hillside, it was already dark, and I could only distinguish objects more than ten meters away. I looked down the slope and saw that Duan Ke and Zhou Zhihong were still standing in place.
They looked happy, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel a little chilled. Fuck, Uncle Wang and I almost lost our lives, and now that we're both hostages, you two still have the leisure to talk nonsense here. Even if you don't think you can help, it's better to take a few turns around anxiously in the same place, at least let me know you're worried.
They didn't notice that we were standing on the hillside, maybe it was too dark, or maybe we were talking too much. As angry as their actions were, at least they looked like students, and the man would have believed us.
"That's it, look." I turned to the man and said.
He stood next to us, squinting his eyes and looking down, but his gun was always pointed at us.
"I suddenly remembered that I have a student ID on me, and if you still don't believe me, I can show it to you." I said to him again.
"Well," he turned to me, "where?" ”
"In my pants pocket." I say.
"Cheng, if you find something else, don't blame me for being unkind." He said, shaking the gun in his hand as he spoke.
I reached into my trouser pocket, pulled out my card and handed it to him. He looked at the document in the faint light, then threw it back into my hand and said, "I used to be a college student. ”
"Okay, judging by the way you look, you shouldn't be some bad guys. So, call your friends and come with me, I know where to stay. He said to me and gave us back the gun.
I carefully put back my student ID, this student ID card has already saved my life twice, and I must take care of it when I go back. I took the gun and shouted at Duan Ke and them.
Seeing that the two of them followed, the man walked directly down the slope, and Uncle Wang also followed.
"Who is he?" Zhou Zhihong walked up and saw the back of the man and asked me.
"That's the guy just now." I replied without looking back.
"Oh," he said, "I heard you just shoot?" ”
"Hmm." I said as I brushed aside the branch in front of me.
Duan Ke followed last, it sounded like she had been scraped by a branch several times, but I was still angry at what I was just now, and I didn't bother to help her.
Walking out of the bushes and through the orange groves, it was already completely dark and I couldn't see anything clearly. The man who led the way took out a flashlight and turned it on, and continued walking, not knowing where to take us.
"Next to the paddy field, be careful." The man led us to a path next to the woods and turned back to us.
Duan Ke walked in the night road, and from time to time made some exclamations because of her feet, and I wanted to go over to help her, but I didn't. I just want her to know that I'm angry.
The air was filled with rancid stench, and it seemed that we were already in the village.
After a circle around the woods, we came to a gentle place. In front of him was a small pond, glittering in the night. Next to the pond, there is a cement house. It used to be a contracted fishpond, and the cement house was for the night watchman.
The man pushed open the door and walked into the house, and we followed. There was a dozen square meters in it, and the flashlight shook around a few times, and I saw that there was a bed and a TV inside, as well as a pile of ashes from the flames. There was a large camouflage backpack and a helmet on the bed, which should be the man.
"Sit down." The man lit two candles next to the TV and pointed to the bed.
Zhou Zhihong was not polite, took off his backpack and put it down against the wall, and sat on the bed. He looked around curiously and said, "You contracted this fish pond?" ”
The man turned off the flashlight, shook his head, and said, "No, I just passed by here and stayed." ”
I took off my backpack, put it on the wall, and sat down against the wall myself, and I asked him, "Look at you, you used to be a soldier?" ”
"Hmm." He put down his gun, answered me, and put his hands on his chest, leaned against the wall, and looked at us.
I looked at Uncle Wang, but there was no reaction on his face, it didn't look like a peer meeting a peer at all. Oh, I just remembered that Uncle Wang is not a soldier now, but a security captain.
"What about you, what are you driving here for, it can't be out for a driving trip, right?" The man asked us.
"You can say that, but it's not, we're going to Zhejiang." Zhou Zhihong replied, "This process can also be regarded as tourism." ”
The man nodded, and didn't ask what we were going to do in Zhejiang, maybe he wasn't interested at all.
Uncle Wang took out a cigarette case and gave it to the man and me, and then Uncle Wang sat down next to me and lit the cigarette. Duan Ke saw the rising smoke, fanned it with his hand a few times, and then hid in the corner.
The man asked me to borrow a fire, lit the cigarette and said with a smile: "I forgot to mention, my name is Wu Linyu." ”
"My name is Lou Li," I said, and then pointed at them one by one, "Duan Ke, Zhou Zhihong." ”
"Where's this uncle?" Wu Linyu asked.
"Wang Junying." Uncle Wang replied himself.
"Just call him Uncle Wang." I say.
"It turns out that Uncle Wang's name is so imposing." Zhou Zhihong interjected.
Wu Linyu took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Just now you said that this uncle was also a soldier?" ”
"Hmm." I say.
"What year is the soldier?" Wu Linyu asked.
"Seventy-seven years." Uncle Wang said without raising his head.
"Yo, old-timer," Wu Linyu said, and then his eyes rolled, "Dare to ask which unit the predecessor is from?" ”
"Thirteenth Army." Uncle Wang replied lightly.
"So, you've been on the battlefield?" Wu Linyu asked excitedly.
Uncle Wang took the last puff of his cigarette and replied, "Yes." ”
Wu Linyu nodded, his eyes full of admiration. I looked at this young man who looked quite standard and asked, "Aren't you a soldier, how did you come to this fish pond?" ”。
