Chapter 170: Uninvited Guest
The girl took a pot from the utility table, opened the door, went straight to the river in front of the door, scooped half a pot of water and brought it back, put it on the stove, used a knife, grabbed the potatoes, onions, and tomatoes in turn, peeled them, cut them directly into slices and threw them into the pot, took off a piece of smoked ham hanging from the wall, cut a few pieces of meat and threw them in the pot, hung them back on the wall, and sprinkled some salt into the soup pot.
With a wooden spoon, scraped out a piece of creamy stuff from a glass jar and finally threw it in, and in an instant, the smell of milk filled the entire room, Zheng Dong leaned forward to watch the girl's every move, and swallowed his saliva. The girl took out a large brown and black loaf of bread from her backpack at the door, put it on a piece of paper, cut four slices and heated it next to the pot, and wrapped the rest in paper and put it in the cupboard.
Zheng Dong asked curiously, "Girl, do you live here alone?" ”
The girl gave him a blank look, did not answer the question, she put the soup pot on the table, served Zheng Dong a few spoonfuls of soup, handed him two more slices of heated bread, and bowed her head and ate her share in silence.
Zheng Dong smiled a little embarrassedly, the hot soup was a little greasy, although the cooking skills were rough, for a hungry person, there was nothing to be picky, and the bread with a slightly sour taste and a little dry provided enough calories and nutrients in this cold place.
"Can you get me out of here? Go to the nearest town to you, I'm in the place, and I'll give you another gem. Zheng Dong needed a guide, the girl thought about it for a while, nodded and agreed, but still didn't say a word.
Late at night, the girl was dressed and wrapped in a quilt and leaned on the bed to sleep, holding a gun in her arms, and the index finger of her right hand was placed on the trigger, afraid that she would touch the bolt at night and go off, Zheng Dong reluctantly moved the chair to the edge of the stove, and after a while, he also fell into a deep sleep.
Outside the house was pitch black night and boundless silence.
In the early morning, it was too cold in the house, Zheng Dong woke up from freezing, the iron stove felt cold to the touch, and the fire was extinguished. He got up and was about to go out, there was a pile of wood for burning wood at the door, and there was a slight "crunch, crunch" sound of stepping on the snow outside, and his consciousness was scattered, and he sensed three people.
Zheng Dong's divine sense helped him identify the person in charge, focusing on capturing his voice.
"Be sure to catch it alive, that chick is a treasure, and the customer has given a lot of money." The man's voice was low as if he was whispering in someone's ear, but for Zheng Dong, the exception was the case, and the content of their conversation was heard clearly word for word.
"Boss, can we ----- can we not -----"
"As long as it's alive, give her to that person, get the money, and when the customer doesn't need it, whatever you want, do it."
The sound of "crunching" snow is getting closer and closer, and Zheng Dong wants to kill a few of them easily, but he wants to know why these robbers want to arrest this girl.
He hid on the beam above the barrel where he bathed, ready to hear what they had to say, and to help the girl if she was in danger.
The door was quietly opened with tools, and three people entered, and the leader said, "Come on, hurry up." ”
Two of his subordinates pounced on the girl, one pressed her leg, and the other went to grab the gun in his hand, "bang" a ball of fireworks came out of the muzzle, and the bullet hit the roof, Zheng Dong's position was a little to the left, and he almost hit him with a shot, and the cold sweat came down.
She didn't have a chance to shoot a second shot, the shotgun in her hand was snatched by one of the robbers and thrown to their boss, and the two of them held her down, and the girl struggled hard, but she didn't shout, where was she the opponent of the two strong men, and one of them smirked and ripped open her coat made of animal skins, and there was only a pale green vest inside, revealing a snow-white ravine.
Brute! Zheng Dong was about to jump down, but the boss at the door spoke, and the two robbers beside the girl also stopped tearing her clothes, and waited to see what they said.
The boss smiled and said, "You're Tonya?" ”
He threw the gun on the table casually, walked up to the girl step by step, reached out and twisted it on her white and tender face, and rubbed a full chest vigorously, the girl "Phew! Spat on his face.
"If you tell us a clue, I can guarantee your safety, they won't touch you, otherwise, you will end up with your grandfather."
The girl's angry eyes were full of hatred, biting her lip, without saying a word, crystal tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes and flowed down her cheeks.
"Don't say yes." The Boss began to unzip his pants.
There was a loud "bang", the boss's lower body was blurred, and one thigh was blasted out of a hole the size of the bowl.
After screaming, he died directly, and a robber next to the girl, "poof" his head was sunken into a piece, and he fell to the side, and finally the one was completely stupid, and looked at everything in front of him in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
Zheng Dong dragged the robber out of bed from the girl's side, held it down and knelt on the ground, the robber opened his mouth, still with a covered face, a big mouth twitched, he came to his senses, trembling all over, this handsome young man who looked polite and tall, held a large revolver in one hand and an iron rod in the other.
"I ask, you answer, wrong, you are just like them, understand?" Zheng Dong sat in the chair and said coldly.
The robber nodded hurriedly, his body still trembling involuntarily, "You ask, only, as long as you surround my life, I, I will say anything." ”
"What are you looking for Tonya?" Zheng Dong knew the girl's name from the bandit leader's conversation just now.
"Yes, for, for, high, Kolchak's treasure, treasure."
The guy didn't speak very coherently because he was too scared.
Zheng Dong took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter in the boss's pocket, popped one out and lit one, handed it to him, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I won't kill you, say slowly." ”
He took the cigarette with a trembling hand and took a few puffs before his mood stabilized, "There was a foreign expedition that found her grandfather, saying that it was looking for Kolchak's treasure, but it didn't find it, and his grandfather died." ”
After speaking, he glanced at the girl who was getting dressed on the bed, Tonya's eyes were full of frost, and the bandit hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and then said: "His grandfather sold a tsar-era silver tableware in the town, with the emblem of the royal family on it, and the leader of the expedition found him, hoping that he would be a guide and help find the treasure." ”
"Wait, I don't understand, Tsar, Kolchak, what's going on with them?" It seems that it is time to make up for the world history.
"I, I know that Kolchak's treasure contains something that the expedition wants, like a book, a book."
Tonya, who was sitting on the bed, suddenly spoke, "After the death of the last tsar, his admiral Kolchak fought a war with the nascent red regime at that time, Kolchak was defeated, and those nobles, their families, refugees and troops of about a million people, retreated to Siberia with the wealth of the tsar, and when they came here, Lake Baikal froze over, and when they walked on the ice, they encountered a cold air current, and more than 200,000 people froze to death, and all the corpses and wealth sank to the bottom. ”
"How did your grandfather die?"
Tonya's eyes were red, "They want to rob my grandfather's things, it's a gold leaf, with the deeds and oaths of the saints on it, my grandfather is a devout believer, he can do without the share of the treasure, it's not okay." ”
"Gold flakes?"
"Yes, grandpa said it was Bode or something." Tonya struggled to recall.
"Is it the Book of Baldur?" Zheng Dong raised the question in his heart and held the idea of trying.
"Yes."
"I see, Kolchak's treasure contains the pages of the Book of Baldur, why did that expedition want that golden page?"
Tonya glanced at him, "Are you here for this too?" ”
Zheng Dong didn't want to lie, it was something that the old man regarded as life, he nodded solemnly, "I won't rob it, what you need, I can exchange it with you." ”
Tonya thought for a while, and there was a hint of firmness in her beautiful eyes, "I want an expedition, everyone's lives!" ”
"This."
Zheng Dong also thought about it, the expedition team killed people first, and he served justice last, there was nothing wrong with him, with his cultivation, he was not afraid of getting into trouble, just be careful.
"Okay."
He threw the shotgun on the table to the girl, and without saying a word, Tonya raised the gun, pulled the trigger, and shot the man's head off with a "bang".
Zheng Dong sighed and said, "I said I wouldn't kill you, but I didn't say she wouldn't kill you, I'm a good person." ”
