twenty-six
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the prisoner car they were riding in caught up with the pouring rain of the previous night on a rugged mountain road in Hebei.
The prisoner car did not slow down and continued to travel rain and rain, even eating lunch in the car. The people's police and armed police who sat in front of the car ate bread and sausages brought out, as well as hard-boiled eggs, and the prisoners sitting in the back of the car were also given bread and eggs, and drank the same water as the police, which was bottled pure water.
Even the thatching after the meal is carried out in the car. In the march of the car, Pang Jiandong and Xiao Ke entered the iron fence partition together, Xiao Ke held a cloth sheet to cover the sight of Shan Juan sitting at the back of the car, and Pang Jiandong carried a small bucket with a lid to the male prisoner, first let Liu Chuan urinate in the bucket, and then brought the urine bucket to the crotch of Kangkang. Because of the long time in the car, Pang Jiandong found that Xiaokang's shackled legs were a little swollen, so he asked Zhong Da for permission and took off the shackles for him. After the male prisoner finished releasing the mao, and then the female prisoner's mao, Pang Jiandong held the cloth sheet, and Xiao Ke helped the single cocoon to release the mao at the back of the car. How the woman put the grass behind the cloth sheet, Liu Chuan couldn't see and couldn't imagine, he sat on his seat after the grass was released, and was ordered to bow his head, and his eyes could only see his toes and crotch.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there were hardly any passing cars on the road, except for the occasional swarthy truck that struggled on the side of the road, and was quickly overtaken by the speeding prisoner van. Except for occasionally looking up at the gray rain and fog outside the window, Liu Chuan has been keeping his head down in a regular manner, listening to the chats of the police outside the iron fence in front of the car. They were talking about Qin Shui. They all know that Qinshui is a coal city, they all know that Qinshui is very poor, and they all know that there is a Longcheng next to Qinshui, and there is a small commodity market in Longcheng, a small commodity market ** "world famous brand", all kinds of brands are available, and they are all staggeringly cheap, so Longcheng is more famous than Qinshui.
The driver and armed police soldiers also participated in the rambling conversation about Qinshui and Longcheng, and Lao Zhong couldn't help but smile and ask: You are talking so lively, let me ask, who here has been to Qinshui and who has been to Longcheng? No one answered, they all smiled and shook their heads. Pang Jiandong continued: That place is too remote, and it is not a place where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and can be traveled, not to mention that no one has ever been to our Heavenly Prison, I am afraid that no one will have been to the whole prison bureau if they ask. Pang Jiandong's voice was high-pitched, Liu Chuan heard it very clearly, and he was faintly sad in his heart, and he also knew that Pang Jiandong was right, although he had been to Qinshui and Longcheng, but people were talking about the police officers of the prison bureau, and they had nothing to do with him.
But for some reason, he still looked up and looked ahead, as if he wanted to say that I had been, but he actually met Xiao Ke's floating gaze, and he lowered his head as if he was burned. He thought that Xiao Ke was really a careful girl, and when he heard that no one knew Qin Shui, he obviously thought of him.
Liu Chuan didn't know that Xiao Ke's secret gaze was not teleported back to this side, in the past seven hours of travel, she couldn't count how many times, pretending to be unintentional to patrol Liu Chuan's side.
Liu Chuan didn't know that there was another passenger in the car, who was also looking at him quietly, and that person was Shan Juan who was sitting behind him, separated by three rows of seats. From Shan Juan's frozen pupils, it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
The prisoner car traveled westward, all the way without hindrance.
At about 3 p.m., the prisoner car drove into the Yangqu Mountain area, and on a gentle section of the road on the side of the mountain, the policemen's voices suddenly stopped, and the speed of the car slowed down significantly. Liu Chuan quietly raised his eyes and saw that on the side of the highway outside the window, many cars had broken down, and they swept by at a glance, mostly coal trucks, and a few sedans and wagons, crowded in the middle. The rain is still falling, and you can see the front of the road, a few coats, a few umbrellas, and more people, shuttling back and forth......
"Keep your head down!"
Pang Jiandong shouted into the iron bar, and the three prisoners who stretched out their necks to look lowered their heads together. The moment Liu Chuan lowered his head, he saw that the door of the prisoner car had been opened, and the driver of the shift put on a raincoat and ran out of the car, probably to the front to explore the way. The two armed police soldiers were in a state of high alert for battle, the index finger of their right hand held the trigger of the miniature ***, the muzzle of the gun was upward, and their eyes swept flat, observing the movement outside the car. Pang Jiandong faced the bar, watching the three prisoners sitting on their feet inside the bar. Lao Zhong and the driver in the driver's seat talked in a low voice, analyzing the situation ahead......
Liu Chuan, like Shan Juan Xiaokang, both lowered their heads, just like a blind person's hearing is extremely keen, and every sound in front of the car will not escape their ears. Soon they heard the shift driver back in the car, and even the rain splashing under his feet on the pedals of the car was very real. After the driver got into the car, he hurriedly reported to Zhong Dazuo, his voice was so soft that it was almost a whisper, but at least Liu Chuan could guess the situation, that is, there was a flash flood ahead, the road was cut off, and some cars were blocked in front, and the traffic police had not yet arrived, so it was useless to rush......
After a brief discussion between Lao Zhong and the two drivers, Lao Zhong talked to the head of the prison on the phone again, and five minutes later, the car started again, turned the police lights, and then turned the wrong way, and returned the same way along the national highway with heavy rain.
Liu Chuan really thought that they were going back to Beijing at the moment when the prisoner car turned around, and he was happy for some reason. But he soon realized that he had miscalculated. After driving in the wrong direction on the uncrowded national highway for three minutes with the help of the police lights and siren, the car turned off the main road and drove towards a side road on the side of the mountain. From the conversation between Lao Zhong and the driver, Liu Chuan could tell that they wanted to cross Yangqu Mountain from another highway, and the driver had walked on the old road before, and they obviously did not give up their original plan to reach Xiangyuan City before dark.
Although the road they walked just now was also a mountain road, it was far less tortuous than the old road. It felt like they were alone, heading towards the depths of the mountains, and every heart covered with rain and mist probably had a little fear. If the newly built road was built around the mountain in the gentle area of the mountain, then this old road is the real mountain crossing. Fortunately, the rain suddenly became less after entering the mountains, which may be a unique phenomenon in meteorology, although it is only a few miles apart, but the climate in the mountains is very different from the plains. The car turned around a desolate mountain pass, and it rained and the sky was clear. Through the pass between the loess and the boulders, the dim car windows were unbelievably dyed red by a touch of the setting sun. Liu Chuan couldn't help but raise his head, and at the same time he heard the policemen cheering excitedly outside the iron fence in front of the car: the sunset after the rain was so dazzling, Liu Chuanyan could imagine that in such a barren mountain and wild range, the scenery was so magical.
The driver honked his horn excitedly, and the sound of his horn echoed in the silence of the mountains. is really like the immortal verses of the revolutionary predecessor Mao **: The mountains are like the sea, the remnant sun is like blood, and the trumpet is swallowed. Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it is stepping forward from the beginning......
The magnificent scenery soaked every pair of tired eyes, and everyone's eyes were filled with more or less drunkenness, and the unexpected happened here. The prisoner car had just turned a corner at this passing where the scene had changed, and before it could react, it was involved in a car accident.
The car accident came unexpectedly, no one had the slightest expectation, the bend of the pass is a blind spot of sight, no one expected that the cliff in front of it had been washed down by the torrential rain, the car turned over the mountain pass and immediately hit a big tree that fell with the collapse of the cliff, and then it rolled over with a loud bang, dragging the ground and crashing into the cliff on one side. When the prisoner car stopped stalling, the front of the car had completely deflated, the entire body was obviously twisted and deformed, and the engine oil and gasoline leaked out of nowhere, and the smell was pungent. Fortunately, the fire has not yet burned. After a huge and continuous impact, the whole mountain fell silent.
The first to climb out of the wreckage of the prisoner car was Xiao Ke.
Xiao Ke was not the least injured, but she was probably the first to wake up from the panic of this disaster. She climbed out of the broken window nearest to her, and dragged out the old clock. Although Xiao Ke was in pain, she didn't find out where the specific injuries were, and when she dragged Lao Zhong away from the smoking prison car, she felt that her limbs were still free. But Lao Zhong seemed to have suffered an internal injury, and he wanted to get up from the ground, but he got up and fell sideways, and his face was twisted in pain.
In fact, Lao Zhong was indeed injured a lot, his left arm seemed to be unable to move, and his back seemed to be seriously injured, when Xiao Ke came up to help him, he still gritted his teeth and sat up, and immediately ordered Xiao Ke to leave him alone and hurry up to save others. He struggled to get up himself, followed Xiao Ke from the window and back to the car, dragging people out of the car one by one. The first one they dragged out was Pang Jiandong, who was already unconscious, and then dragged out the shift driver and two young armed policemen, as well as their two intact "**". Then they opened the bars of the cart, which fortunately did not completely deform and was able to open a narrow slit. The three prisoners in the iron fence were still conscious, although Fan Xiaokang's forehead was broken, and Liu Chuan's shoulder was also overflowing with blood, but their injuries were obviously lighter than the policemen sitting in the front of the car. Zhong Tianshui and Xiao Ke first pulled Liu Chuan out of the carriage, then pulled out Shan Juan, and finally, dragged Xiaokang out of the carriage.
The driver of the car is stuck in the cockpit, and he will definitely not be able to get out without sawing the driver's head, and it is obviously of little sense to rescue the driver now, because the driver is already blurred with flesh and blood, and there is no need to save him by dragging him out.
As soon as the three prisoners were dragged out of the carriage, they heard Lao Zhong and Xiao Ke's hoarse command, which told them to crouch against the cliff wall and hold their heads in their hands. Zhong Tianshui asked Xiao Ke to quickly check the injuries of Pang Jiandong and others, and he limped to check the handcuffs of the prisoners, whether they were damaged and fell off, and asked them where they were injured. Shan Juan and Liu Chuan were shocked, just shaking their heads, unable to speak. Only Xiaokang shouted: "Report, I'm injured!" Old Zhong only noticed that there was a deep wound on his forehead, and the blood had clotted. So he asked him to stand up and squat, and when he saw that he was moving freely, he ignored him for the time being, because at this time, Xiao Ke's cry suddenly came from the prisoner's car.
Xiao Ke's cry was intermittent, his breath was terrified, and he shouted in a trembling voice:
"Jiandong! Jiandong! Jiandong ...... Lao Wang! Lao Wang ......"
Jiandong, who Xiao Ke shouted first, was actually only unconscious, not dead. It was later confirmed that in addition to the driver of the car, there were also shift drivers and an armed police officer who died immediately after the accident. Pang Jiandong and another armed policeman were seriously injured, and only one breath remained in their mouths, but if they groped carefully, their pulses still beat slightly, and it was not time to cry for them. Zhong Tianshui asked Xiao Ke to stop crying and get into the car to get the first aid kit. In fact, that small first-aid kit is obviously a drop in the bucket for such a tragic death or injury.
But Xiao Ke still obeyed the order and climbed into the car, looking for a first-aid kit and also looking for a distress device installed on the car, but unfortunately the distress device that can send the distress signal directly back to the Tianjian duty room has already died with the collapsed cliff along with the front of the car.
While Xiao Ke was monitoring the three prisoners holding their heads and facing the wall, while bandaging Pang Jiandong to no avail, Lao Zhong climbed into the car again to check the crashed distresser, because he found that his mobile phone did not have a signal in the mountain. It seems that the caller is indeed as Xiao Ke said, broken, and irreparably broken. The only thing he could find in the carriage was a few bottles of half-drunk pure water, two military raincoats, and the blue cloth sheet that separated the male and female prisoners.
It was getting dark, and the sun was obscured by dark clouds, and it was impossible to see where the sun was hanging on the mountain. Zhong Tianshui decided to immediately abandon the prisoner car, give up handling the dead, immediately take the wounded, escort the prisoners, and go down the mountain from the original road before the night falls, and return to the main road, so that it is possible to find someone who can help them or help them contact the outside world on the way.
A total of seven police officers were assigned to the escort, twice as many as the prisoners in custody. Now, three police officers are dead and two are injured, and only Zhong Tianshui and Xiaoke can move. Zhong Tianshui was actually seriously injured, his back hurt when he moved, and his left hand couldn't even move much. Although Xiao Ke was not seriously injured, she was a woman, and they had to try to carry the seriously injured Pang Jiandong and another armed police soldier down the mountain. On the prisoner's side, there were two men and one woman, who were in good health and had no major injuries. The form of the prison, except for the handcuffs on their hands, except for the inherent majesty of Zhong Dae, the rest is gone. In Zhong Tianshui's mind at that time, he didn't expect that the Beijing Municipal Prison Bureau had maintained a glorious record of seven years of no violent imprisonment and no escape, and it might end tonight.
Maybe Zhong Tianshui didn't think about this, he might just think about how to get out of danger as soon as possible, walk to a place where there are people as soon as possible, go to a place with a mobile phone signal, and get in touch with the heavenly supervisor or the local ** as soon as possible. Rescue the two dying wounded as soon as possible.
Fortunately, he and Xiao Ke each held a "**" full of bullets, so that this escort that would continue would not be outnumbered. Half an hour after the accident, they carried the bodies of the substitute driver and armed police soldiers who had died to the side of the cliff, covered them with cloth sheets, and then set off on the road. Zhong Tianshui ordered Xiao Ke to open the handcuffs for Liu Chuan and Fan Xiaokang, ordered Liu Chuan to carry Pang Jiandong on his back, Fan Xiaokang to carry the armed police, and Xiao Ke to escort Shan Juan, who was still handcuffed, and began to set off. The formation of the escort was: Xiao Ke with a gun in front, Shan Juan holding a medicine box and a few raincoats behind. Behind Shan Juan, there is Liu Chuan and Pang Jiandong on his back, behind Liu Chuan, there is Xiaokang and the armed police on his back, Zhong Tianshui followed Xiaokang closely, taking pictures with his line of sight, and after the bullet was broken.
Before the "Forward" operation proceeded, Zhong Tianshui announced several directives to the prisoners:
1. Everyone must walk in the prescribed order, the formation is important, and the distance must not be opened for no reason, no looking back, no looking left and right, and no turning heads and ears.
2. If there is something that needs to be reported, call the report first, and only turn back after getting permission.
3. When you hear the command to stop, you must stop immediately, and when you hear the command to squat, you must immediately squat. When walking and crouching, try to keep the casualty as steady as possible.
Fourth, during the special period, there will be special measures, special policies, and those who have made meritorious contributions will receive major rewards, and those who wait for an opportunity to escape or attempt to commit violent prison will be severely punished according to law, and will not hesitate to use weapons when necessary. I hope you will recognize the situation clearly, don't have a fluke mentality, and don't defy the law and hit a stone with an egg.
After announcing the order, Zhong Tianshui asked, "Did you hear clearly?" ”
Two men and one woman, three prisoners replied in unison: "Yes!" ”
Listening to the sound is the same as the usual answer in prison, the same courtesy, the same obedience, no different, reassuring.
Zhong Tianshui has always been accustomed to speaking slowly, a little procrastinating, a little annoying, but this time, at this time, although Zhong Tianshui was injured, all the instructions and questions, which were clean and neat, short and fast, were unprecedented, and even Xiao Ke and Liu Chuan couldn't help but be shocked.
It was only when he approached Liu Chuan that Lao Zhong's whispered inquiry brought back his tone back to the same as before: "Are you okay?" He was asking about Liu Chuan's body, Liu Chuan's shoulders and clothes on his chest were soaked with blood. Although Xiao Ke had already examined their wounds, Zhong Da's re-questioning before departure, as well as the thoughtfulness conveyed in a low voice, made Liu Chuan's answer full of gratitude.
He said, "It's fine. ”
Zhong Tianshui said: "If the blood can't be stopped, report it at any time." ”
Liu Chuan said: "Yes! ”
They left the prisoner cart and marched down the hill in columns.
Xiao Ke is in front, focusing on the left side of the formation, and Lao Zhong is behind, focusing on the right side of the formation. After the heavy rain, the mountains and rivers are rapid, and the roads that have been in disrepair for a long time are criss-crossed with sand and rocks, and they are muddy. The speed of the march was very slow, and the road was slippery; secondly, two male prisoners were wounded and overwhelmed; Third, Xiao Ke was the leader of the team, and she actually had to face the prisoners behind her from time to time, so she almost walked sideways all the way; Fourth, Lao Zhong himself really can't walk. He later had to give the order to stop advancing and rest on the spot, because he could no longer walk. When he saw Liu Chuan and them, he didn't seem to be able to walk.
It was getting dark, and the wind was getting stronger, so that their chosen place of recuperation had to be a leeward recess. This hollow is higher and less soaked by rain, so it appears drier, but once you bend down to sit down, it is still damp. Zhong Tianshui couldn't care about anything, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and asked Xiao Ke to command Shan Juan to spread out the raincoat, and lay Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldiers flat on the raincoat: Then, he ordered the three prisoners to sit down on the spot as well, and let Xiao Ke handcuff them again. The muzzle of the black hole in Lao Zhong's hand was always aimed at Shan Juan Xiaokang. Xiao Ke first put the weapon next to Lao Zhong before walking over, ordering Fan Xiaokang to hold the back of his head with both hands, and then went around behind him with a precautionary look, pulled his right hand high, put the handcuffs on it, and then dragged it to the front, and handcuffed it with the other hand.
After handcuffing Xiaokang, Xiao Ke took out another handcuff from his satchel and walked towards Liu Chuan. Although he did not order, seeing that Liu Chuan had already learned from Fan Xiaokang, holding the back of his head with both hands, Xiao Ke did not go around behind him this time, but walked straight in front of Liu Chuan and squatted down on one leg. They looked at each other at eye level, she looked at the blood on Liu Chuan's shoulders and chest, she really wanted to say a word of comfort, a word of greeting, a word of encouragement, but no. She is a police officer, he is a prisoner, here and now, a mobile prison in extraordinary times, here and now, no emotional exchange between men and women is allowed.
But she believed that Liu Chuan understood her gaze. With an imperceptible smile in his eyes, he responded to the care and affection projected by the officer in front of him, the girl, the friend who had given him the most affection. He put his hands down and reached out to Xiao Ke together. It was an elegant pair of hands, although it had been tempered by various labors, it was still slender and good-looking, and the wrists were a little thin, but the shape of the muscles was strong and powerful. Xiao Ke gently grabbed one of Liu Chuan's hands, she couldn't tell whether this hand was strong or weak, and when she hadn't put the handcuffs on the perfectly contoured wrist, Lao Zhong's order came from behind her:
"I don't have to put it on him."
Xiao Ke did not immediately carry out this order, she let Liu Chuan's hand continue to let go of her palm for a while before slowly letting go. She said, "Let me see your injuries." Liu Chuan nodded, obediently unbuttoned his prison clothes, and asked Xiao Ke to check his chest and shoulders. The wound was mainly on the shoulder, and most of the blood stains on the chest came from there, and from the bloody wound, it was impossible to distinguish whether it was a scratch or a bump, and it was impossible to see whether it was a piece or a piece.
Xiao Ke stretched out his hand and touched Liu Chuan's shoulder gently, unable to bear the touch. She said, "There is no medicine, you can bear with it." ”
The dressing drugs in the first-aid kit have all been used for Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldier who was slightly less injured than him. At this point, they were lying on their raincoats and regained their sanity. They woke up on the road one after another, and the armed police soldiers were seriously injured in both legs, but at this time they were able to have a brief exchange with Xiao Ke with questions and answers. Although Pang Jiandong opened his eyes, his breath was still weak, in addition to the fact that his legs were unconscious, there was probably internal wounds and blood in his chest. After Xiao Ke checked their injuries, she asked Liu Chuan to pull the cloth on her clothes and re-bandage Pang Jiandong's bleeding calf, while she herself went to Lao Zhong's side to examine Lao Zhong. When she touched the old clock, she found that the old clock had a high fever, and her hands were hot all over her body, and she put her hand on the old clock's head, and she could feel that he was trembling like a pendulum.
Although there are some fever-reducing medicines in the medicine box, they are all used to treat colds and fevers, and they are not suitable for Lao Zhong. Lao Zhong must have a high fever caused by inflammation from internal injuries, so Xiao Ke decided to give him some antibiotics to alleviate the infection. She found a packet of penicillin capsules in the medicine box and divided them into three portions for Liu Chuan to give to Lao Zhong, Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldiers. Liu Chuan, who has worked as a hygienist in the prison district, also knows that it should be right to take a little antibiotic at this time, but the problem is that there is no water. The few bottles of leftover mineral water they found in the prisoner car before setting off were drunk by Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldiers on the way, and the small half was shared by Lao Zhong Xiaoke and the three prisoners. The reason why they can't walk anymore is that the lack of water in the body is also an important reason.
Maybe Lao Zhong's perseverance was stronger, and he swallowed the medicine with his own saliva. Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldiers were bleeding profusely, their lips were chapped, and the capsules stuck to their mouths, and they couldn't swallow them. Especially Pang Jiandong, if he didn't irrigate with water, I am afraid that he would not even be able to take out the strength to swallow. Liu Chuan saw Xiao Ke squatting beside Lao Zhong and discussing something with Lao Zhong in a low voice. Although the clouds in the sky were thinning, the setting sun only left the last reflection in the sky. It seems that they are definitely going to spend the night here today. The continuous high fever made Lao Zhong's thinking sluggish and slurred, but Xiao Ke still heard his meaning clearly from his staccato voice and from his incomplete words.
The meaning of the old bell is: If you spend the night here today, Xiaopang may not be able to survive the dawn. Therefore, the "forward" operation should continue to move forward tonight no matter what, even if only one person goes out, it must also go down the mountain!
Xiao Ke also knew that they had to move forward, and spending time here was tantamount to waiting for death. Not only Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldier, looking at the appearance of Lao Zhong, I am afraid that it will drag on until tomorrow morning, and he will definitely not be able to walk if he does not die. But now moving forward, the only escort force that can move around is Xiao Ke himself. She had to escort three prisoners and take three wounded, which was an almost impossible task. Now Pang Jiandong and the armed police soldiers can no longer move half a step, if Xiao Ke himself goes down the mountain first to ask for help, relying on Lao Zhong to watch the three prisoners and the two dying wounded, it is obviously not an appropriate way. If Lao Zhong has a high fever that does not go away, when the mountain wind comes at night, the humidity hits people, and the illness may worsen further, and even like the two seriously injured people, it is difficult to protect himself, and his life is on the verge of death.
At this time, Zhong Tianshui was already angry, but he could still make a faint sound, and his tone was even more decisive than usual, so that Xiao Ke could hear his last two sentences very clearly.
"Let Liu Chuan go," said Lao Zhong, "let him go down the mountain!" ”
Liu Chuan?
If it weren't for Xiao Ke, I believe that any prison policeman would be shocked the moment he heard this decision. Liu Chuan is a criminal who is serving a sentence, and the nature of this decision is tantamount to "letting the tiger go down the mountain"; if Liu Chuan goes and does not return, the responsibility of releasing the criminal privately is absolutely unshirkable and must be borne! But Xiao Ke didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately seconded: "Okay, let Liu Chuan go down the mountain!" ”
Xiao Ke immediately brought Liu Chuan to Lao Zhong's side, announced Liu Chuan's decision to let him go down the mountain in front of Lao Zhong, and explained the specific requirements. While announcing, she used the muzzle of ** to monitor Shan Juan and Xiaokang, who were sitting on the ground not far away. Shan Juan and Xiaokang have been ordered to bow their heads and face the wall.
Xiao Ke said to Liu Chuan: "Liu Chuan, after the decision of the commander of this escort operation, the head of Zhong Jian District, to send you down the mountain alone, as long as you find someone, or find a place with a mobile phone signal, immediately contact the local public security organs, contact Tianhe Prison, and let them immediately enter the mountain to meet us, do you understand?" ”
Liu Chuan said: "Yes." ”
It was already dark, and by the half-round dark moon of the cliff, Xiao Ke was enough to see Liu Chuan's dark and thin face, on that face, there was no excitement as Xiao Ke imagined, and there was no ** as it should be, the hunger, thirst and exhaustion at this time seemed to be overpowering all desires.
"Can you complete the mission?" Xiao Ke asked again.
"Yes." Liu Chuan replied.
Xiao Ke added: "This is the prison's trust in you, we believe that you will be able to ......" She suddenly stopped halfway through the sentence, because she realized that at this moment, for Liu Chuan, any emphasis on trust is actually expressing a kind of worry, a kind of distrust in the bones.
Xiao Ke secretly scolded herself: "Stupid! ”
But Xiao Ke still finished the sentence of encouragement that stopped in mid-air, but the tone and content changed, it became a friend-like intimacy, and it became a mutual encouragement like a relative, and she even forgot that Zhong Tianshui was by her side, and forgot that Zhong Dashang was still awake......
“…… I have always believed in you, Liu Chuan, I have always believed that no matter what difficulties you encounter, there is no hurdle that you can't overcome! ”
She didn't care whether Zhong Da guessed her semantics, she was no longer talking about Liu Chuan's descent from the mountain, but about Liu Chuan's entire life, expressing her own praise for Liu Chuan's character, and even, her deep sympathy for Liu Chuan's experience in the wall for several years and her ardent encouragement for the future. Making such an expression made Xiao Ke even more excited than Liu Chuan, her eyes were red with excitement, and her voice trembled:
"Do you understand, Liu Chuan?"
Liu Chuan should have understood that he should have sensed Xiao Ke's excitement, so his voice was also slightly deformed, and the deformed sound broke Xiao Ke's heart.
“…… Be! ”
But Xiao Ke controlled her emotions and did not let go of tears, she covered her heart with a serious expression, and dominated the scene in front of her with a composure commensurate with her identity. She bowed slightly to Liu Chuan, and her voice returned to calm at the same time.
"Okay, you take a rest first, get ready, I'll go to the neighborhood to find some water first, and you can help Zhong Da take care of the other prisoners." As soon as I get back, you'll take my phone and head off the mountain! ”
Liu Chuan also controlled the excitement on his face, but he couldn't help amplifying his voice, he responded to Xiao Ke's mood with his voice, and also expressed his emotion with his voice!
"Yes!"
Xiao Ke left the mountain recess.
She had to find drinking water before Liu Chuan descended the mountain, which might be necessary to keep the three wounded alive for the night. She took three empty bottles of mineral water and searched them in the direction of the hill slightly lower. Yangqu Mountain originally had no waterfalls and no streams, but the puddles formed by the torrential rain made her believe that maybe she would not go far and she would be able to meet the source.
Before leaving, she handed over her own *** to the armed police soldier who could already sit up against the mountain wall, the armed police soldier and Lao Zhong were shot each other, and the bullet was loaded, which was enough to deter the two handcuffed prisoners. Moreover, among the two prisoners, there was also a woman, who did not have much to worry about; Moreover, in addition to those two "**", there is also a Liu Chuan, and Liu Chuan can help them.
The moon hung obliquely overhead, the clouds had not yet dissipated, and the twists and turns of the mountain road were always shadowed by each other, so that the vision became obscured.
Xiao Ke carried a large flashlight, and walked along the slope with stops and stops, trampling hidden puddles under her feet, and her trouser legs were already covered with dirty mud. She walked far away unconsciously, and could not find a source to draw from; It seems that the heavy rain for two days has been greedily sucked into his henchmen by this dirt mountain, and there must be no rain here for a long time, there is no abundance of grass and trees, there are no peaches and plums on the top, and there is no stream on the bottom...... Xiao Ke had to leave the main road to find the path, which was littered with rocks, and perhaps there could be a dark accumulation in the meantime.
Xiao Ke did not find stagnant water, but found a drip spring after rain in front of a stone wall. The fountain fell silently, escaping the ears but not the beam of light of the flashlight. Although the dripping spring has not flowed, the drip speed is like a string of pearls, and it takes at most three or five minutes to fill a bottle, but Xiao Ke only took about half a minute before throwing away the bottle.
Because she suddenly heard a gunshot! The string of "pop pop", it is very clear, it is a string of "**" point shots.
Xiao Ke's heart was completely confused at that moment, she threw the bottle, but fortunately did not throw the flashlight, the light pillar of the flashlight carried her deep and shallow feet to run in the direction of the gunshot, the gunfire came from the mountain camp she had just left. As she stumbled, the gunshots rang out several more times, all in a cold burst of fire, very close to each other. The repeated ringing of gunshots ruthlessly broke Xiao Ke's illusion that the gunshots might belong to misfire. The unstoppable gunfire undoubtedly shows that there must be great changes on the side of the mountain recess!
