Wu Xiaofeng looked at Ye Ming with a worried gaze and asked, "Senior brother, apart from exchanging hostages, isn't there any other way to rescue Xiao Benben?" Yesterday afternoon, when you were inspecting Mr. Shi's lumberyard, I overheard your conversation with him. According to Mr. Shi's introduction, from the lumberyard, you can cross the Yinxiang Peak and go directly to Gong Pengju's lead-zinc mine, and his old nest should be near the lead-zinc mine.

"If my analysis is correct, you repeatedly inquired with Mr. Shi yesterday about the path from Yinxiang Peak to Gong Pengju's Mining Department, which should be meaningful. I guess you had an idea at that time, and you were going to take people from the lumber yard over the Silver Elephant Peak, and surprise Gong Pengju's lair to rescue Benben. In that case, you don't need to be detained on Gong Pengju's side, right? ”

Ye Ming nodded and said, "That's right, I did have this idea at that time, I wanted to climb over the Silver Elephant Peak with you, Brother Ou and Brother Su, sneak to the vicinity of Gong Pengju's station, and then raid his lair at night to rescue Xiao Benben." But last night I weighed it up and decided it was too risky and had a very low chance of success.

"First of all, according to Mr. Shi, Yinxiang Peak is steep and difficult to climb, and in the past, only the mountaineers who collected medicine used tools to climb over this peak. We were completely unfamiliar with the terrain there, and we couldn't find the mountaineers to lead the way in a hurry, and we didn't have any climbing tools, so it was impossible to climb the Silver Elephant Peak.

"Secondly, even if we crossed the Silver Elephant Peak, we didn't know anything about Gong Peng's lair, let alone where Ben Ben was imprisoned. Moreover, now that Gong Pengju has known that we have arrived here, he will definitely strengthen his precautions, with the strength of the four of us, even if there is a chance to sneak attack them, it is estimated that the chance of victory is not great, and it will put Xiao Benben in an extremely dangerous situation. ”

Liu Zihao also said: "Secretary Ye's analysis is correct. I have been to Gong Pengju's lair, where the security is very high, and the people under him are all strong in kung fu and outstanding marksmanship, if it is the four of you to save the child, even if each of you has three heads and six arms, it will not work, so this sneak attack to save people will not work at all. ”

Wu Xiaofeng was silent for a long time, raised his head to look at Ye Ming, and said in a very resolute tone: "Senior brother, you saved my life, and you saved my son's life." Now that you are facing a life-or-death situation, I will never leave you alone. After you exchange Xiao Benben, I will work with my two comrades-in-arms, Ah Fu and others, to assist Brother Liu's brother to send Xiao Ben safely to the border line. However, I will not return to China, I will rush back to Meilan Town as soon as possible, and ask Brother Liu to find me a medicine collector who has crossed the Silver Elephant Peak as a guide, and I will kill Gong Pengju's lair alone to save you. If we really can't save it, our two brothers will live and die together! ”

Ou Gaochu and Su Lixiong hurriedly said: "Brother Feng, we are also good brothers who were born and died, why did you forget us?" If you want to save Secretary Ye, how can you do it without helpers? Our three brothers join forces, even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, we can break through, even if we can't rescue Secretary Ye, at least we can hit Gong Pengju's killer group hard. We are just like you, after sending the child safely to the border, we will return immediately and climb over the Silver Elephant Peak with you to save Secretary Ye! ”

Ye Ming didn't expect that Ou Gaochu and Su Lixiong, who had never known each other, would follow Wu Xiaofeng to rescue him, his heart was hot, his eyes gradually moistened, and he said in a choked voice: "Three big brothers, I have received your wishes, but don't go to Gong Pengju's lair, it is too dangerous to do so, it is very likely that people will not be able to save them, and they will take the lives of the three in vain." In that case, I will die a hundred deaths! ”

Wu Xiaofeng waved his hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "Senior brother, don't stop this matter. Except for my wife and son, my only relative is you. Now that you have encountered such a great danger, you are always worried about your life, you let me go back to China regardless of your affairs, in case you have three long and two short, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. As for my two comrades-in-arms and brothers, they are both good men with righteousness, and they are also lifelong friends with me, and they will never sit idly by and watch me take risks alone. The three of us will definitely save you, as for how to save you, it will be decided according to the situation at that time. ”

Fu Mengzi hurriedly said: "Brother Feng, if you want to save Secretary Ye, you must bring me, Mao Lizi, and dwarf winter melon." Although our kung fu is not high, one more person has more strength, and all three of us have practiced marksmanship with Brother Chao, and the basic skills of playing with guns are there. As long as we have a gun in hand, we should be able to cover you up, and we will never hold you back! ”

Wu Xiaofeng shook his head categorically and said, "No, the main task of the three of you is to send Xiao Benben back to Tianjiang Province safely." In addition, it's not that I underestimate you, with your martial arts and marksmanship, it is more than enough to deal with the little hooligans and gangsters on the street, but if you fight with those special forces and mercenaries, you may not be able to beat them in terms of skills, and you are not on the same level as them in terms of marksmanship. If I take you, I will not only lose your lives in vain, but also hold us back. I'm putting this bluntly, I hope you don't get offended! ”

Fu Mengzi knew that what he said was the truth, so he had to nod unwillingly, and said to Ye Ming with tears: "Brother Ming, you are the same as Brother Chao, you are as kind to our brothers, but we have never had a chance to repay you. Originally, the three of us wanted to follow Brother Feng to save you this time, but our ability is limited, and we can only say sorry to you. You can rest assured, we still have some old brothers on the southwest border, who used to follow Brother Chao. After Benben is rescued, I will contact those old brothers and ask them to meet us at the border crossing, and I will definitely send Benben to the capital safely and hand it over to Sister Chen Yi. ”

Speaking of this, he wiped a handful of tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a choked voice again: "Brother Ming, you are going to exchange hostages later, I can't follow you with Mao Lizi and Dwarf Winter Melon, I can only say goodbye to you here." I have a request: Can you hug our three brothers? In our eyes, you are not the secretary of the county party committee, you will always be our brother Ming! ”

Speaking of this, he finally couldn't control his pain, and suddenly covered his face and cried bitterly. Mao Chestnut and Dwarf Winter Melon were also infected by him, and cried with him!

Ye Ming's heart was also very sour, but he didn't want to aggravate the sadness of the scene, so he pretended to joke lightly: "Three brothers, your crying reminds me of Jing Ke's two famous poems: 'The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone'." However, I am not an assassin, but a hostage. The ending of Jing Ke's assassination of Qin is gone forever, but this time, as long as Gong Pengju's group's requirements are met, he will be able to come back unscathed in the future, so you don't have to be so sad! ”

With that, he walked over and hugged Fu Mengzi, Mao Lizi, and Dwarf Winter Melon, respectively, and patted them on the shoulders with his hand to show comfort and gratitude.
