Chapter 55 (II) The Righteous Soldier
"What's the matter!?" Wei Boyang was a little angry, "It was a few old men who were together, discussed and decided, and then took him to the execution ground for execution, and the executioner Duan Hu, that is, his younger brother, was also chosen by himself!" β
It seems that what Qinghua said is true, but Wei Boyang doesn't seem to know what happened next, that is, what Daisy said about Duan Long's second death. So Tang Shuxing hit the railroad while it was hot: "Old man, but what I heard is something else. β
"Oh?" Wei Boyang was a little surprised.
"What I heard was that a few years later, Duan Long was killed in the desert of Arizona, his hands were amputated, he bled to death, and he died in front of Daisy, and Daisy's family was also executed by the gang, along with the FBI agents who were in charge of the case back then." Tang Shuxing looked at Wei Boyang and said Daisy's words clearly.
"Ridiculous! Of course, we can't say that Duan Long was executed, so we let him go, but he is really dead! Wei Boyang frowned and said, "Moreover, I never ordered the killing of Daisy's family, no matter what, the rules of the rivers and lakes will not cause trouble to the family, I don't know what other people do, but I Wei Boyang can't do it, let alone those FBI agents in charge of the case." β
"Old man, that's why I said that there is something strange about this matter." Tang Shuxing smiled bitterly, "Do you think, if there is an error in this matter, then there will be a contradiction between you and the ghost, and if there is a contradiction, there will be a war, and the war between you will not do any good for the future struggle, besides, if there is a fight between you, what about other organizations and forces?" I will not trust you anymore, let alone the future union. β
"I understand what you're saying. I get it, too. Wei Boyang closed his eyes and said, "I can only sue you, Duan Long was ordered to be executed by me, if that Daisy wants revenge, she can find me, but her family and colleagues, it's really not me who did it." β
Tang Shuxing nodded silently, and Wei Boyang asked again: "Shuxing, do you think she will lie?" β
"No, it won't. I've seen too many people who lie. She didn't look like it at all. Tang Shuxing shook his head, "I'll find out about this." β
"Torture, gangs, were born in troubled times. Rise in troubled times. But it was at the peak in peacetime. The most ironic thing is that the destruction of the gang is also in the troubled times...... I know it may not be long. We will disappear, perhaps be replaced, and this is inevitable. I, Wei Boyang, have never thought of being famous, after all, I have also done a lot of things that should go to the eighteenth layer of hell, but ......" Wei Boyang pressed Tang Shuxing's shoulder, "Hundreds of years ago, from the moment the predecessor of the Huaqing Gang was born, we were righteous people, not criminals, let alone bandits!" It's changed, it's broken, it's just to blame, it's no wonder to others, and you can't complain about it. β
Tang Shuxing nodded: "I understand, where it originates, it will be ruined." β
Wei Boyang nodded: "You go, I have already sued Wei Wei, no matter what the other families mean, we Weimen fully support you, but I also hope that you will promise me that one day, Weimen is in trouble, I hope you will definitely help, you are also a member of Weimen." β
Tang Shuxing nodded: "Don't worry, it's incumbent." β
Wei Boyang nodded: "I won't be wrong." β
Subsequently, Tang Shuxing left with Qinghua, and spent a few more days of effort, under Wei Lifeng's arrangement, with two carts of weapons, ammunition and food, according to the agreement with Daisy, drove to the location of the earliest supply point, and then erected the white chess piece on the car.
After a long time, no one responded, seeing that it was about to dawn, Tang Shuxing and Qinghua did not dare to linger any longer, for fear of being discovered by the government army, so they had to drive to the nearest town to take refuge, just when the two of them just drove away, a light off-road vehicle rushed down from the far hillside and crossed directly in front of them.
Tang Shuxing watched the smoke and dust rolled up by the wheels in front of him gradually disperse through the windshield, sitting in the car, Daisy wearing goggles was revealed, Daisy looked at him expressionlessly, and then got out of the car, holding a pistol in her hand.
Tang Shuxing also got out of the car, and as soon as he got out of the car, Daisy raised her gun and aimed it at his head.
Tang Shu said: "You listen to my explanation, things are different from what you think." β
"Tell me, then, what do I think?" Daisy asked coldly.
"You think I've broken my agreement with you and swallowed what you deserve." Tang Shuxing shook his head, "Although you think that's the truth, after all, the basement is empty, but I have to sue you, this matter is definitely not done by me." β
"Who did that?" Daisy didn't put down her gun.
"Miss Daisy, listen to me, it wasn't my master's doing!" Qinghua got out of the car and raised her hands, but her face was also fearless, "Really, it was done by the people in the gangster gathering place, they want to eat black, no, they want to swallow it privately, but the reason for this is very complicated, you have to listen to my master's explanation!" β
Although Qinghua said nonsense, Daisy still looked at him and asked Tang Shuxing, "Who is this?" β
"The apprentice you just received." Tang Shuxing smiled bitterly.
"Apprentice?" Daisy couldn't quite understand, but asked, "What are you doing this time?" You should know that I've been waiting for you for almost twenty days! β
"I'm sorry, I'll explain when I have time, but now it'......" Tang Shuxing pointed to the east, "As soon as the sun rises, we will be found by the government army and it will be over, I have a car here, there are guns, ammunition and food in the car, you can bring it back first." β
Daisy took out the walkie-talkie and called Jason and Ivey, who slid down the hill in the distance, and then drove the car away as instructed, leaving only Tang Shuxing and Qinghua's things.
"About five kilometers to the east, there is a village, and there is a hotel to the west of the village, find the basement of the hotel, and wait for me there." After Daisy finished speaking, she got into the light buggy and left.
After Daisy left, Qinghua put down her hand, looked at Tang Shuxing and said, "Master, five kilometers, let's walk over?" β
"Let's go!" Tang Shuxing said helplessly, "Just take it as a punishment, who told us to 'trick' someone once." β
Qinghua carried her things helplessly, followed Tang Shuxing into the woods, and then stopped all the way. It took him two hours to get to the little village and find the little hotel.
When standing in front of the hotel, the two put down their backpacks and looked at the dilapidated little hotel, which was overgrown with weeds, and it seemed that the hotel had been plundered hundreds of times.
"Why did Miss Daisy choose such a place?" Qinghua shook her head and said, "But it's okay, we have a place to rest, Master." You go in first and rest. I'll find you some ......."
Qinghua originally wanted to say that she was going to find some clean water, but before she could finish speaking, she saw Daisy, who had changed her outfit and was dressed as a cowboy, appear at the door. Watching the two hook their fingers. Motioning for them to follow him in.
Tang Shu's punishment is now understood. Daisy was really punishing him, obviously she came here first, but she didn't say anything. Deliberately let them come on foot.
Daisy led them to the kitchen, pointed to the open tunnel door and said, "Go down, this is my private property." β
"Private Territory!?" After Qinghua finished speaking, she immediately said, "Master, I won't go down, I'll still be guarding outside." β
"Okay, be vigilant." Tang Shuxing nodded, and then walked down, and Daisy then went down, closed the tunnel door, and locked it.
The moment he locked the door, Tang Shuxing subconsciously glanced back and watched Daisy pass by him expressionlessly.
Tang Shuxing followed him, and when he went down, he found another worldβa fluffy bed, a beautiful desk, a carpet, and more importantly, the walls were painted and wallpapered, and a beautiful crystal chandelier was hung.
Although there was no electricity, there were candles everywhere below, Tang Shuxing walked down step by step, and when he walked down the stairs, facing the foot of the bed, he saw that the entire wall there was hung with photos of Daisy and Duan Long, mostly group photos, but there were also solo photos.
Daisy walked over with a glass of wine, handed it to Tang Shuxing, and said, "I don't want to forget him." β
"Thanks, I don't drink." Tang Shuxing shook his head, "I want to know, why is he your fiancΓ©?" You've been on the run for so many years, why haven't you gotten married? β
"He said don't get married until it's completely safe." Daisy leaned back in front of the desk on one side and said, "What he plans to do is to go with me to a small country in Central America, buy a piece of land, grow something, and live the rest of his life like this." β
"A life of seclusion." Tang Shuxing turned around and sat on the chair, looked at Daisy and said, "I went to confirm what you said, but I also want to ask you, did you see the appearance of the person who cut off your husband's hand at that time?" What do they look like? You can describe it to me. β
Daisy closed her eyes and recalled, "Three people, all Asian faces, I can't describe what they looked like. β
"Then why do you think that Wei Wei ordered it?" Tang Shuxing sat there and asked again, this question was very sharp, but it was also very important.
"There will be no one else but him." Daisy said, "But I don't know why you're saying that, you're defending him?" β
"I'm not going to defend anyone." Tang Shu said, "How many years have you escaped after the incident? β
"Only one year and three months, to be exact." Daisy said immediately, she remembered it well.
"Well, what happened between you and Duan Long in the past two and a half years? For example, if there is anything that you remember in particular, that is, something that you think is unusual, anything is fine! Tang Shuxing pondered, "For example, has Duan Long's eating habits changed, and who among you proposed to go to Arizona?" β
"It was Duan Long who brought it up, and he said he liked it there." Daisy looked down at the wine glass, "I really don't know what you mean by the unusual thing, but I'm curious, why did you know that his eating habits had changed?" β
Tang Shuxing chuckled in his heart, subconsciously grabbed the edge of the table, and pondered for a long time: "Where do you live in Arizona, and how do you usually move?" β
"A gathering place for Indians in the early years, in a very cool canyon, we hardly go out, and he goes hunting for meat on weekdays, and he eats very little, and he doesn't seem to be in good health." Daisy shook her head, "But I know it's not that he doesn't love me anymore, yes, there's one more thing...... For a year and a half, we didn't do anything, but I wasn't pregnant, I had regular check-ups, I knew there was nothing wrong with my body, and when he was a witness, we also had a medical check-up on him, and there were no problems, I don't know if it was unusual. β
Tang Shuxing nodded, and then asked: "The physical examination was before the incident, right?" β
"Yes." Daisy nodded.
Tang Shuxing thought for a long time and said: "Daisy, there are still some things I have to ask you in detail, but they may irritate you, but I hope you must be calm and ......" (to be continued......)
