Chapter 396: Discovered
There was not a single car passing by on the road for half a day, it can be seen that this side is indeed very remote, the road is wide, Chu Yan and I are sitting on the side of the road, the target is too big, in case they find it, they can see us at a glance.
It seems that I have to find a place to hide for a while, and wait until the person who rescued us comes, for the sake of safety, I picked up Chu Yan again and walked to the mountain that I came down just now.
I took Chu Yan to the mountain and found a bush, hiding behind it just enough to block the two of them, I put her down, and the two sat on the other side of the bush.
"What are you bringing me here for?" Chu Yan was helped by me to sit on the ground, looked around, and asked puzzledly.
I sat on the ground and pulled at my sweaty clothes, which were so wet and uncomfortable, that I said, "It's too dangerous to sit down there, and if they find us, they will see us at a glance, so we have to hide ourselves from the grass and wait for the man who rescued us." ”
"Did you say those people found out we're gone?" Chu Yan asked uneasily.
I shook my head: "I don't know, but it's only a matter of time before they are discovered, and I hope they will find out later." ”
"Even if they find out that we are gone, maybe they can't find us and give up." Chu Yan said with luck in her tone.
"You don't want to think about it, since they locked us up there, it means that the boss has been released, they won't let us escape so easily, and this neighborhood is their territory, it's easy to find us, we can only hide and drag out time." Chu Yan and I analyzed the current situation.
Chu Yan looked at me, suddenly sighed, and said, "If it weren't for me, maybe you would have been rescued a long time ago." ”
I felt a little strange when I heard her words, how could Yi Chuyan's character say such a thing.
"Didn't you always want to go back, how could I leave you alone in a place like this." Hearing the self-reproach in her tone, I patiently comforted her.
Chu Yan looked at me with complicated eyes for a long time, and said in a low voice: "If I can, I hope we can always be here." ”
"You're all right, right?" I almost choked on my own saliva, and she shocked me.
"Why do you want to stay here if you can go, are you being locked up here stupidly?" I couldn't help but complain.
It's rare that Chu Yan didn't get angry when she heard my words, but pulled the corners of her mouth, with a bitter smile.
"I did have such a thought in my heart, after I went out from here, I will be Manager Chu again." Chu Yan muttered, with an inexplicable sadness on her face.
"You've always been Manager Chu, could it be that you were demoted from here?" I didn't understand what she meant, so I asked inexplicably.
She stared into my eyes for a long time, shook her head and said, "You don't understand. ”
What do I not understand?
When I asked again, Chu Yan was reluctant to tell me, as if she was running away from something.
I feel that Chu Yan's mood is inexplicably a little low, we can escape from this is obviously a happy thing, why does she look sullen, could it be that she just fell and broke her head?
When she came down from the mountain, her reaction was strange, including what she had just said, and there was another deep meaning, but I just couldn't figure it out, and she definitely wouldn't tell me if I asked her.
What secrets does Chu Yan still have? Does it have anything to do with me?
My heart was full of questions, but I couldn't ask, Chu Yan sat next to me, looked down at her own ankles, I glanced at it, and saw that her ankles were still high and swollen, my heart softened, and I lowered my voice and asked, "How is your foot, does it still hurt?" ”
Chu Yan pursed her lips and said easily: "It's already a little numb from the pain, so it doesn't hurt." ”
"Do you want me to rub it for you?" I asked.
She looked up at me and asked hesitantly, "Are you okay?" ”
Me: "... ..."
Well, I'm really not quite good.
"Let's wait for the rescuers to come, and then go to the hospital to deal with it." Seeing my reaction, Chu Yan said lightly.
"I'm just saying it casually." I said with some embarrassment.
Chu Yan rolled her eyes a little speechlessly, and couldn't help laughing after two seconds, but the atmosphere eased up.
When we don't talk about those things, Chu Yan is still very talkative, and without the name of Manager Chu, we can talk calmly and joke.
Just like a friend?
As soon as this thought appeared in my head, I immediately felt that I was thinking too much, Chu Yan was so proud, like a goddess, how could she be friends with me, a poor dick, and I also took advantage of her.
At most, we are friends who share hardships together, or we are forced to do so.
After sitting for a while, the sky was completely bright, and the sun was shining warmly on me.
The clothes on my body were soaked when I was walking just now, and now they are exposed to the sun, and they are not dry or wet, and they are a little uncomfortable on my body, which makes people feel the urge to take them off.
glanced at Chu Yan who was sitting next to her, and remembered that I was slapped by her two days ago without wearing clothes in front of her, and if I took it off in front of her again this time, she might think I was going to be a hooligan again.
Forget it, just go back and take a shower and change your clothes, and if you endure it any longer, maybe the rescuers will come.
As soon as I thought of this, I heard footsteps and talking, and I was a little surprised.
I poked my head out of the bushes, only to see that it wasn't the rescuers, but the people who came looking for us.
There were a lot of them, and they were walking down from the mountain, and the route they took was the route we had just descended, and they should have been looking for the traces we had walked.
Didn't expect them to find out that we had escaped so quickly?
"Look for it, there are walking marks in this area, maybe they are around here." I heard someone shouting.
Looking at this situation, it was indeed found in the mountains that we had found our traces, and then we found them down the road.
"I didn't see anyone all the way, could they have already run away?" Someone asked.
"Impossible, they haven't eaten for a few days, and they are not familiar with this piece, how can they run so fast, you should look carefully for this piece to see if there are any traces." The man continued.
"I see that the traces of this grass have reached the foot of the mountain, they can't have reached the main road, right?" One of them stood at the foot of the hill and shouted this way.
Several other people also ran in the direction of the foot of the mountain after hearing his words, and when they saw that the traces left behind were indeed in that position, they all looked at each other.
"Don't worry, the manager has already driven to that road with someone, they don't have a car, they can't go far, let's wait for their news."
"I'm just afraid that they have been rescued, and if the police know about this, we will all go to jail, right?" Someone asked uneasily.
"Can you kid stop talking nonsense here, if you want to say something, say something good, besides, this thing was done by the manager, what do we do, we are just here to help find someone, if the police really know, there is the manager in front, and it will not be our turn to go to jail." The man said angrily.
"That being said, we are also in the know, and we can be regarded as cover-ups in the law." The person who said before that he would not go to prison was beaten, and said cautiously.
"Your courage is too small, we are here to work, we have so many workers, we can't really be held accountable, do you understand that the law is not responsible? If you haven't read a book, you don't understand. There was some disdain in the man's words.
"Hey, haven't you just been studying for two years, what are you angry, if you are really capable, you won't follow us to do hard work." The previous man was scolded for a few words, and his temper also came up, and he replied unceremoniously.
"Okay, don't argue, it's all part-time jobs, let's do whatever the manager says, what do you want to do so much, you haven't gotten the salary for the house yet, you can do things if you want money, let's not care so much." Someone came out to play the round.
"How long has this work been completed, and the wages have been delayed until now, who knows if we will get this money."
"Yes, the wages have been delayed for almost a year, and I have to get a lot of money for such a big project, but who knows that it has been delayed and not paid, and my wife and children are still waiting for me to take the money to build a new house in my hometown."
"Who is not, my daughter-in-law called two days ago to ask when I can go back, I haven't seen my daughter-in-law for almost a year."
"Do we still need this money?"
"It should be able to arrive, didn't the manager say, so many villas, it will take time to sell."
"But it's been sold for too long!"
"It's just..."
When one person mentioned this topic, everyone else followed suit, with some dissatisfaction and complaints.
I hid behind the bushes, overheard their conversation, and guessed that they were supposed to be workers at the time of the construction of the villa, and that they had stayed until they were paid.
Listening to the accent, it seems that there are a few outsiders, and it seems that they are all workers who they found from different places to build villas at that time.
What they just said was full of dissatisfaction that they couldn't get the money, but they didn't expect the boss to even delay the wages of these workers, but if you think about it, you can figure it out, because the villa is haunted, the villa can't be sold, and the money can't be sold, and of course those bosses don't have the money to pay the wages of the workers.
It's no wonder that this boss is in a hurry to let us sign the contract, and if we don't sign his villa, it will be even more difficult to sell, the early investment cannot be recovered, and the wages of so many workers are still signed, so it is strange if we are not in a hurry.
Those workers were discussing around the foot of the mountain, Chu Yan and I held our breath and hid behind here, and we didn't dare to come out, who knows how many workers those two people found to find us all over the mountains.
"Okay, don't discuss it, there has been no news from the manager, it seems that the people haven't been found yet, they are likely to be around here, let's look for them again." Someone suggested.
Although those people were dissatisfied, in order to get their wages, they still listened to this, and scattered in all directions, looking for them everywhere.
I sat behind the bushes, afraid to stick my head out to look outside, and could only concentrate on their footsteps.
Unfortunately, I listened for a while, and I actually heard footsteps getting closer and closer, and it seemed that someone was coming this way.
Chu Yan also heard this movement, and she nervously leaned into my ear and asked, "Lu Yan, what should I do, it seems that someone is going this way." ”
I was also very anxious, this movement was getting closer and closer, and they could see me and Chu Yan when they came over.
I thought about what the chances of us being able to run away after we were discovered, and after seeing Chu Yan's injured ankle, I was sure that the chance of being able to run away was zero, even if I could run away, but Chu Yan's foot was still injured, and she would definitely not be able to leave.
Do I really want to leave Chu Yan here?
I looked at Chu Yan with some hesitation, but found that she was staring at my eyes seriously, and I was so relieved by her that I was so softened.
No, no matter what, I'm a big man, and I leave an injured woman with immobility here, and if I do this, I will look down on myself.
But if we hide here, we'll both be discovered, and there's less chance of escape.
Suddenly, an idea appeared in my heart, since the two of us will definitely be discovered, it is definitely better to find one person than to find two people, it is better to go out now to lure them away, Chu Yan is here waiting for the rescuer to come, and then go and save me when the time comes.
