Chapter 141: The Desire to Be Used
"Your mind is so messy." Qi Lichen took a deep breath, raised his eyelids and said, "Are you pacing back and forth like this, have you figured out a way?" ”
Bai Ze shook his head embarrassedly, "No." ”
"In that case, it's better to sit down and wait." Qi Lichen closed his eyes again, looking like he was asleep or pretending to sleep.
Qi Lichen said this, Bai Ze sat down, still a little impatient in his heart, and always felt that danger was coming.
In this way, two days passed, each day either eating or sleeping, and their dry food was also eaten, and no one dared to eat what was sent, for fear that it was poisonous.
When the ammunition was exhausted and everyone fell into despair, Qi Lichen was still very calm, and on the evening of the third day, everyone was hungry and had no strength, and the cell door was opened again, usually this point would not come to deliver food to them, I am afraid that there are other people.
Qi Lichen opened his eyes at this time, it was dark and the light could not be seen, and a figure could be vaguely seen walking in, quite burly, it seemed that it was Li Hao, the person in charge here.
Qi Lichen stood up slowly and looked at Li Hao, "Have you figured it out?" ”
The expression on Li Hao's face was a little unnatural, "You don't want to be demagogic here." ”
"Haha." Qi Lichen laughed, "It's already come to this point, you don't have to sell it, right?" We're still alive, that's enough to tell, I'm afraid your village won't have idlers, right? ”
Li Hao nodded and walked over, "You are a smart person, in fact, I don't like to talk to smart people, who knows what you people are calculating?" ”
"No matter how much you calculate, it's useless, we're all in your hands, aren't we?" Qi Lichen looked at Li Hao without changing his face.
This kind of deep gaze made Li Hao's heart tremble slightly, as if a pool of water couldn't see the depth.
Maybe it's because the desire has been suppressed for too long, and finally there is a little light, Li Hao doesn't want to think about it so much, nodding in agreement, "Okay, you are also happy, you are indeed in my hands, so obedient cooperation is your only way to survive." ”
"I have a map here, you are familiar with this mountainous area, we can cooperate." Qi Lichen said.
"Cooperation? I'm not going to cooperate, and those treasures are supposed to be the cost of your lives. Li Hao said coldly.
"Haha, that's a big breath." Qi Lichen sneered, "The treasure map is here, if you kill us, you won't get anything, now it's the best way to talk about cooperation, your appetite is not so big, you can't swallow this treasure, how many people are staring at the rivers and lakes, you can't hold it steadily." ”
Li Hao thought about it carefully, and then said: "You are already trapped beast fights, is there any benefit to cooperating with you?" ”
"At least you don't have to worry, someone will get the news to hunt you down." Qi Lichen smiled.
Li Hao looked at his smiling face, but felt that there was a coldness spreading, and he made up his mind in his heart, if he found the treasure, he would let all these people shut up.
So it doesn't seem to matter what conditions are promised to him now, he smiled and nodded, "Okay, I agreed." ”
"So we're partners now, right? It doesn't seem sincere to keep your partner in a dungeon. Qi Lichen said.
"Of course, I'll let you out." Li Hao said in a deep voice: "However, you also have to reassure us, right?" ”
"Okay, these treasure maps, half of you, half of me, and if you don't have half of them, you won't be able to find protection, so you can rest assured, we have to rely on each other to find this treasure." Qi Lichen took out the twelve runes, "You can take six at will, so you don't have to worry about me doing anything inside." "New World
Li Hao took a closer look, the runes looked complicated, and the paper also had a quaint feeling, it should be the treasure map left back then
He casually took six of them, "What if you have a backup?" ”
"You can try to see if you can make an exact copy of these pictures and texts, I don't even understand what it means now, how can I copy them?" Qi Lichen said.
Li Hao glanced at it, it was indeed difficult to copy, so he believed Qi Lichen for the time being, carefully wrapped the six sheets and put them in his pocket, then opened the lock of the cell door, smiled and said, "Come out, my partner." ”
Qi Lichen nodded, "When are you going to act?" ”
"Tomorrow, everyone seems to be a little tired, just take a good rest tonight, and continue on the road tomorrow, but I don't worry about so many of you, for the sake of fairness, you bring fewer people." Li Hao glanced at them and said with a little worry.
"Of course, you have shown your sincerity, and I naturally can't lag behind, so I'll take six people with me." Qi Lichen said with a smile.
Li Hao responded, and everyone walked out, but it didn't alarm too many people in the village, and many people probably didn't know that Li Hao had changed his mind and wanted to cooperate with them.
This person is also very deep in the city, Qi Lichen understands that cooperating with him is to dance with wolves, and he must always be vigilant against the sudden change of face of the people around him.
After they were gathered at the village chief's house for one night, they packed up some things the next day and continued to set off, Li Hao asked them to bring fewer people, but brought a dozen cronies, he left some people in the village, Li Hao let people watch them, which can be regarded as double insurance.
Qi Lichen said his difficulties, they wanted to go from these ancient roads, but now the ancient roads were covered with thorns and weeds, and they couldn't see the road clearly.
Li Hao also sighed, after living here for so many years, the ancient road has long been out of use, and they don't know where the ancient road is.
Qi Lichen saw that he had no choice, so he had to find another way.
At night, everyone camped and slept, Bai Ze got up quietly and came to Qi Lichen's room, "The brothers we brought out are all carefully selected, and we will definitely be able to take them down in one fell swoop, it is better to take advantage of the darkness to control them all, and then we will go back to the village to find those brothers." ”
Qi Lichen shook his head, not to mention how difficult it was to do this kind of thing now that their forces were separated, and most of the people were left in the village, if something went wrong, it might hurt their lives.
What's more, they are not familiar with the road, and after observing it on this day, I found that even if they don't know the ancient road, they can find ways from various roads and make road signs on the map along the ancient road, which shows that their role is still very great.
In that case, why not maintain a semblance of peace, spend a few days with them, and wait until the real big war has to come.
Thinking of this, he asked Bai Ze not to act rashly and go back to his room to sleep, but he should be vigilant to maintain, he is not a simple person, he wanted to swallow that treasure at the beginning, you can get a glimpse.
Li Hao's cooperation with them is only superficial, and Qi Lichen's heart will not be burdened, since they are all wicked people, don't expect anyone to be treated well.
Bai Ze nodded and retreated, as if nothing had happened in the silent night, but a few shadows kept passing by in the dark night.
The next day, a group of people packed up their things and went on the road again, and those who didn't know thought they were a family, but secretly everyone had a ghost in their hearts and had reservations about each other.
Before I knew it, I had already reached the mountains, and I didn't see any villages along the way.
Qi Lichen raised it, but Li Hao had a smile on the corner of his mouth, "No matter who it is, when you come to this mountain, you will be known to us." The meaning of the words seems to be obvious.
