Chapter 18: The Trap

Sitting in the car, I looked at the thin old wine and felt a little unbearable, but I didn't expect the rotten master to think the same as I thought: "Old wine, don't follow us around, just stay and guard the yard and wait for us to come back." ”

Lao Jiu rejected Master Fu's proposal, and said on the side that he also wanted to contribute to everyone. I don't think there is any need for Lao Jiu to go, so I echoed the rotten master despite his face: "You just listen to the rotten master, if he comes back halfway, someone has to report it." ”

Lao Jiu didn't seem to find any words to refute us, and it was hard for an old man to blush. Seeing this, I hurriedly gave the rot a look, and the rot master hit the railroad while it was hot: "Your task is to find the entrance as soon as possible, and you know that there is not much time left." ”

Lao Jiu thought about it seriously and felt that what the rotten master said made sense, so he gave up the idea and said that we should keep in touch at any time. I nodded and said goodbye to the old wine, and then Brother Wu sent the car.

I asked Master Rotten where we went first, we couldn't run around like a headless fly. The rotten master said that Chen Ran's ID wallet didn't bring anything, and he definitely couldn't go far, but he didn't know if he was taken away by the shovel of the land, or if he listened to Lei's gang.

After everyone's discussion, it was unanimously decided to go to the town first. In order not to attract attention, the four of us chose to go separately.

With the station in the town as the center, go in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and feel free to contact by phone, this town is not too big, and you should be able to find it in one day. After that, we scattered around and searched for all kinds of information.

I headed east, and after walking for a while, I came to the vegetable market, which was bustling with people, and there was nothing wrong with it at first glance. I realized that this was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and in a flash of inspiration, I changed into a person who had been pitted by a small lock.

I grabbed an eldest sister who was shopping for vegetables and pretended to be pitiful and asked, "Eldest sister, did you see a thief passing by?" I have an accent that's almost as tall as mine. ”

The eldest sister shook her head without hesitation and said that she had not seen it. This answer was also expected by me, so there was not much to lose.

I concocted this method and asked a few people, but I didn't come up with any useful information. Just when I was at a loss, I received a call from Lao Jiu.

Lao Jiu said hurriedly on the other end of the phone: "Child, come back quickly, we have been tricked, Chen Ran has come back, he said that this is a ploy to shovel the ground." ”

I looked at the people who slowly gathered around me and said to Lao Jiu, "It's too late." Then he hung up the phone and ran like crazy.

I gradually noticed that many villagers spontaneously joined the team chasing me, and the team gradually grew larger, and I was a little overwhelmed.

Actually, I know a little bit of kung fu, but because they are so numerous, I can't handle them alone, so I have to run away first.

The town wasn't that big, and it didn't take long for me to meet a few people who were in the same situation as me. The rotten master looked around and told us to run up the mountain, but who knew that this run made the villagers even more excited.

One second the four of us were still running, and the next we fell into the hole. Luckily, the hole wasn't deep, but we were screaming from the fall.

I endured the pain all over my body and slowly moved my muscles and bones, and after getting used to it for a while, I took out the lighter from my coat pocket and rubbed it a few times before burning it.

I steadied myself and shouted at them. They answered not far away, and listening to their voices, my hanging heart was put down.

They also lit their own lighters, and finally I could see their faces clearly. Brother Wu and Master Fu approached me, the three of us glanced at each other, and I asked, "Why is there one person missing?" The fifth brother roughly swept around: "I don't know, let's look around first." ”

I nodded and dispersed. The hole is not very big, but there are so many rocks that we searched every corner, but we couldn't see a single hair.

Just as we were deflated, there was a sudden sound of voice on the ground. The rotten master made a silent gesture, only to hear the above say: "This is it, I saw them fall into here with my own eyes." ”

Listening to the voice, there was a hint of familiarity, and before I could think about it, Brother Wu rushed over with an arrow step. Seeing that he was about to be exposed under their noses, fortunately, the rotten master was quick to hold him.

The rotten master shook his head at him. He looked at the entrance of the cave with red eyes, like a vicious wolf that saw its prey and wanted to tear it apart.

I tapped Brother Wu on the shoulder to signal him to calm down, and he watched as my clenched fist slowly released, as if he had been drained of strength, and suddenly fell to the ground.

My attention returned to the top. It must have been their leader who commanded: "Bring the stone slab over, seal the hole for me, and don't try to get out alive since you have come!" ”

I exchanged glances with the rotten master and asked him if he wanted to fight, and the rotten master poked his head out and looked at the people above.

He turned his head and gestured to us, meaning that there were at least ten people up there, each with a hoe and sickle and other tools in their hands.

Although it is now a society governed by the rule of law, in some places where the people's wisdom has not been opened, there are still many cases of killing people and selling goods. These people rely on the sky to be far away from the emperor, and with each other covering each other, it is not uncommon for black to eat black.

I shook my head and motioned for them not to act rashly, for it was better to die than to live.

The scoop on top scolded us and urged his men to hurry up.

We certainly won't sit still. Master Fu told me to stay here and keep an eye on the movements above, and he and Brother Wu went separately to find other exits.

There was nothing but the sound of villagers carrying stone slabs. I twisted my neck, ready to relax.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind me and covered my mouth and nose.

Instinctively, my body began to resist, only to kick my leg twice, and then I lost consciousness as soon as it went dark in front of my eyes.

I don't know how long it took for me to regain consciousness. I slowly opened my eyes, but I saw that they were all there. I sat up slowly with my head on my hands, and after looking around, I found myself back in the small farm yard and sleeping on the bed.

I'm a little confused. How did I get back? Who is the person who stunned me? Before I could figure it out, there was a sudden heart-piercing pain in my arm.

When I retracted my thoughts, I saw Chen Ran grabbing my arm. I frowned and said, "What the are you me?" ”

Chen Ran smiled: "Brother Huai, you shouldn't have called you a few times just now, so I can only pry you." Before I could have a seizure, he said, "Don't say it, the effect is really good!" ”

I stretched out my hand to teach him a lesson, but the rotten master patted me: "Okay, it's just a joke." ”

Looking at the rotten master, I remembered the question just now, and stared at him directly. The rotten master was a little hairy by me, and his eyes were fluttering and he said with a weak heart: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”

I finish the previous story without any emotion. I saw the three people in the room look at each other, exchanging things that I couldn't understand, but no one spoke.

Now I was even more confused, realizing that things were not simple, and it was likely that they were hiding something from me.

I said, "What do you mean by that?" Chen Ran and Fu Ye glanced at each other again, and Chen Ran said tentatively, "Are you sure what you see is us?" ”

I didn't know what he meant, but I didn't dare to think about it. Fu Ye sat down beside my bed and said earnestly: "We found you in the woods, and you had already fainted at that time, and as for what you said, we have not experienced it. ”

I was even more confused when Master Rotten said this, I touched my head and wanted to take a serious look, but I touched a big bag, and there was a feeling of pain in an instant.

I wondered, "What's wrong with my head?" The old wine poured me a glass of water, and he took it and said, "We found you lying in the woods, and your head was on a rock." ”

I took a sip of water, leaned my back against the head of the bed, and carefully sorted out the whole story, but I couldn't find what the rotten master said in my memory.

I looked at the rotten master and asked him to tell me again seriously from beginning to end. He exhaled and said.

It turns out that I have been missing for several days, and they did not find me until this morning. Chen Ran treated my injuries briefly, and then they waited for me to wake up.

After listening to the two versions of the story that were completely different from my experience, my doubts in my heart were even worse, and for my own considerations, I decided not to tell them first, and slowly verify it myself.

So I smiled with relief: "It turned out that I was dreaming, and when I woke up, I was a little confused about dream and reality." ”

They are still a little worried about me, and they have repeatedly confirmed my status. Seeing that I really didn't have to worry about these problems, I went to the kitchen and said that I would make food for my body.

I nodded in agreement and watched them go. At a time when everyone thought it was over, only I knew that my previous experience was anything but a dream.
