Chapter 68: Temptation
Ah Ming didn't answer, he was slightly puzzled: "I don't smoke." ”
"Don't lie to me, Lao Huang said that you smoked, don't be polite with me." I laughed.
He still didn't answer: "I really don't smoke, the big boss remembers wrong, you've been here for half a year, when did you see me smoking?" ”
I put down my hand, Ah Ming really doesn't smoke, this is what he said when he was chatting with Lao Huang before, he didn't like the smell of smoke in the inn all the time, so he deliberately found a guy who didn't smoke.
I just want to test it, I don't believe that all weird things happen around me, I am now desperate to find the flaws in Ah Ming, if a person is "dead", he should always be different.
My hopes are doomed to fail, this temptation is meaningless, I can't see every detail of his life, I used to be able to get along with him comfortably, but because of Brother God's words, it became like this.
Doubt is a seed, as long as it is planted in the heart, it will take root and sprout, and interpersonal relationships have always been so complicated that it is too difficult to honestly trust a person.
I sat behind the bar and read a book, and Ah Ming sat down after he was busy, and I stayed until the second half of the night without noticing anything wrong with him, but the thought of him being "dead" made me furious.
I couldn't read the book at all, and when I glanced at Ah Ming every few minutes, I could feel that he was very uncomfortable with me.
"Second boss, are you okay?" He finally couldn't help but ask, looking at me with a strange look in his eyes.
"It's okay, take a good look, I'll go to sleep."
I feel very embarrassed, it's not Ah Ming, it's me, I'm under too much psychological pressure, he's obviously alive, I have to think of him as a dead man, I don't know why Brother Shen is crazy, I just know that if I continue to toss like this, I'm the one who is crazy.
I still can't sleep, I've been thinking about it, I feel uncomfortable when I think of a "dead" person sitting downstairs, lock the door to feel a little more at ease, seeing that the sky is getting brighter and brighter, I finally can't support it and fall asleep.
I slept until nearly noon before getting up, Lao Huang rarely didn't go out, he insisted on going a while later on the grounds of buying equipment, Brother Shen didn't object, we still listened to him in the lama temple, but now it has become our arrangement.
Guizhou is a mountainous place, Lao Huang bought a lot of insect repellent, this time he bought all his equipment the best, especially the climbing rope, a hundred meters to buy five, the last experience must have left a shadow on him.
But this is too heavy, at least sixty or seventy pounds, we can't carry it, Lao Huang is beautiful when shopping online, I guess I can't listen to what I say.
The gear was all in place within a week, we had two sets of backpacks and clothes each, and the best waterproof tent, and I thought we were going to be able to sleep out in the wild.
Brother Shen didn't participate in our preparations, he stayed in the room all day, and if we didn't go to him for dinner, he wouldn't eat, and I wanted to know what he was doing in the room, and I thought I was ridiculous.
The equipment is ready, Lao Huang still refuses to go, I know he is waiting for Brother Shen's fist, I think this thing should be easy to fight, I don't know why it takes so long.
A week later, Lao Huang retrieved the stab from the cutler, and it was very different from what I remembered, it had an extra row of thick and blunt rivets than ordinary stabs, which was used to hit heavy objects with less effort.
There is also a hidden mechanism under the rivet, the mechanism is on the side of the fist, you can open it with a thumb, and a row of blades can pop out of the rivet after opening, the blade is very cleverly designed, composed of layers of overlapping small blades, connected by a rotatable bracket, all stretched out to be more than ten centimeters long.
This spur looks like a middle two, but I have to say that it is very handsome, and I feel that as long as I am a man, I can't resist its charm.
This weapon is a perfect match for Brother Shen, and I can't wait to see how Brother God looks when he wears it.
I called Brother Shen downstairs, and Lao Huang raised his hand and threw the fist stab at him: "See if you have a good hand?" ”
Brother Shen was stunned for a moment, and soon figured out what it was, he put the fist spur on his hand and pressed the mechanism, it was simply a character who came out of the second dimension.
"I'll go, it's handsome, like a Wolverine, damn/, I'll give myself one too!" Lao Huang looked quite jealous.
I grabbed him: "You can save it, you have to work hard with the sapper shovel, and if you put it on, it will really be a secondary disease." ”
"Your sister, you still laugh at Lao Tzu, you have the ability to wear it!" Lao Huang raised his hand and tilted my head.
"I know I don't have the ability, unlike some people who follow suit."
Before I finished speaking, I flashed to the side, and Lao Huang grabbed the air and scolded.
Brother Shen didn't have any expression on his face, but he could see that he was in a good mood, and he actually said "thank you" to Lao Huang for the first time.
Everything was ready, we got into Lao Huang's car, we were going to go to Guiyang first, and then look for Gu Yu according to Brother Shen's instructions, I glanced at Ah Ming before leaving, he was exactly the same as usual.
Guiyang is more than 1,000 kilometers away from Lijiang, Lao Huang and I take turns driving, Brother Shen looks like he doesn't have a driver's license, he has been sitting in the back seat and looking out of the window without saying a word, I can't see his expression, and I don't know what he's thinking.
We drove from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., which shouldn't have taken that long, but Lao Huang's navigation went wrong and we went off track and walked a little back.
Guiyang is a big city, much bigger than those small cities in my impression, the colorful neon lights make me feel like I am in Lijiang, Lao Huang and I are very tired, we casually deal with the roadside stalls, and find a hotel to sleep.
We live in a suite, Lao Huang and I sleep in two single beds outside, Brother Shen lives in the inner room, Lao Huang sleeps very soundly, but I can't sleep over and over.
I didn't particularly worry about the next trip, but I just recognized the old problem of the bed again, and when people can't sleep, they especially want to talk to someone, Lao Huang is impossible, I can only find Brother Shen.
Brother Shen didn't make a sound at all, I don't know if he slept or not, and I didn't dare to look for it, he always gave me a feeling that I should stay away, I wanted to get into a relationship with him, but he didn't give me a chance, he always kept the secret in his heart, which made me very uncomfortable.
What is it for a big man to talk to another man in the middle of the night? Besides, I don't know him well.
I fell asleep in exhaustion, I woke up countless times during this time, I had a night of messy dreams, and when I woke up in the morning I couldn't remember anything, I glanced at my phone, half past five.
Lao Huang is still sleeping, I really don't know how he can sleep so soundly, no heart and lungs are sometimes a kind of happiness, I try to wash as lightly as possible, according to previous experience, the next will definitely be very tired, let him sleep a little longer.
When I walked out of the bathroom, I saw Brother Shen sitting on the edge of my bed, he was dressed as if he hadn't slept at all last night.
I glanced at Lao Huang and asked the question that had been suppressed in my heart for a long time: "Are they the same person?" ”
Brother Shen must have understood who I was talking about, and he shook his head: "I don't know. ”
I feel bored, I am really stupid sometimes, I doubt Ah Ming so much, I simply let Lao Huang fire him for a hundred, but I don't want to blame others, I can't explain this matter when Lao Huang asks, if I tell him that he is dead, he will definitely take me to a mental hospital.
I pinched the inside pocket of my coat, and I took out two pieces of jade without telling Brother Shen and Lao Huang, I didn't know where it was more appropriate to put them, so I just brought them with me.
"In the Southwest." Brother Shen suddenly spoke.
"You feel it? Where exactly? ”
After I asked, I felt that it was inappropriate, where would Brother Shen know the situation in Guizhou, he could only feel the direction of the jade.
I checked the map, there is a Changshun County in the southwest of Guiyang, and there is a redundant Lei Village in the southwest, these are two relatively large places, and those small villages are not clear at all.
The southwest is a mountainous area, and even Changshun County is surrounded by mountains, and the place we are going to will only be more remote, and I don't know if the jade is in someone's hands or hidden somewhere.
Lao Huang also woke up, he seemed to be very annoyed with the two of us muttering here, he raised his hand to open the curtains and went to wash.
The sun outside the window was very good, a thriving and busy scene, and I could see that on the edge of the city, the mountains stretched endlessly, and the sky was a green color.
We packed up and continued on the road, according to Brother Shen's instructions to the southwest, we passed through Huishui County, all the way to Changshun County, drove for more than an hour, Brother Shen still pointed to the southwest.
"Is this Redundant Thunder Village?" Lao Huang asked, pointing to the navigation.
Brother Shen hesitated: "No, we have to go southwest again." ”
Further southwest, it is really a wild land, and even if there are villages built deep in the mountains, we have crossed Changshun County and are heading to Shulei Village.
The mountains here are very different from my home, the mountains here are high and steep, the summits are not sharp but round, like humps standing on the earth, and the valleys are very deep, and there are streams flowing through them, forming a complex and unique terrain.
Here is a famous karst landform, the underground water system is abundant, there are many karst caves, we walk through the mountain road, you can see that there are depressions on the mountains on both sides, it is easy to fall into the karst cave when climbing the mountain here, and you can never get out again.
Although I have made preparations, I still feel terrified when I see these mountains, I have had enough of climbing mountains in Taixing, and it will only be more difficult here than there.
The mountains here are higher and steeper, the air is hotter and stuffier, and this mountain bag does not look like anyone has walked at all, even the medicine pickers will not go.
The village is not far from Changshun County, only seven or eight kilometers away, and we soon got there, where the houses are all black tiles and red walls, and they look neat.
The village is a very large village, it is not far from a few small villages nearby, so it looks very big, so we found a hotel in the village to park and settle down, and stuffed the things we needed into our backpacks.
