"Yes!" I replied in the affirmative.

Da Fei stood up when he heard this, his eyes glaring at the boss, obviously angry.

"Damn, why did this Liu Xigui become so awesome?"

I quickly stretched out my hand and motioned him to lower my voice, and persuaded:

"It's useless to say this, let's find a way to save people, this Liu Xigui is obsessed with money, and after a long time, he may not come up with some ruthless tricks."

Da Fei kicked the haystack angrily, shook his head after thinking for a long time, and said:

"This kid broke the rules back then, was bombarded out of the antique circle, just like a stray dog, the ticket money to go home was bought by my uncle, it's not been a few years, why is he ungrateful?"

"Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, Uncle Hu inevitably has times when he looks at people, he was a very honest and thin person when he was down, you look at him now that he is fat, these years, he must have made a lot of money!"

"Yes, this village is so poor, and every family can't make a lot of money from farming all year round, so eighty percent of them have bought him tickets for this gold rush river. It's good for him to deceive people to go to the ditch to dig for stones, and the peasants' money is also cheated, his heart is really black! ”

The matter has been clarified, even if Hu Badao and his party are rescued now, they have to quickly find another place, is it to find a dart, is it to escape? It's a real headache.

"There's no other way, didn't the little fruit farmer inquire in the evening, wait for him tomorrow morning and see what he has to say!"

Da Fei sighed helplessly, scratched the messy perm and lay down without saying a word.

...........

The roof of the barn was exposed, the walls were cracked and cracked, and the cold wind blew at night no better than the cellar.

After a night, it was finally dawn, and the little fruit farmer seemed to be a good person, and Da Fei and I were still nesting in the haystack without opening our eyes, so he brought breakfast early.

Two bowls of porridge and a plate of stir-fried vegetables. The little fruit farmer put down his meal, squatted in front of us, handed me chopsticks and asked:

"Well, my cowshed is much better than the pigsty you slept in last night, right?"

I didn't answer, and after taking the chopsticks, I asked directly about the topic I was most interested in:

"Little brother, how was the news inquiry last night?"

The little fruit farmer still had the same face, and could not see any joy and disappointment, so he just sat on the ground and pointed to the food with his finger:

"Don't worry, I inquired, you eat first, and then talk after eating!"

Da Fei was yawning, and when he heard the words of the little fruit farmer, he immediately held back and asked nervously:

"Inquiring? Where are my uncles locked up? ”

The little fruit farmer saw that we were eager to save people, and explained with a grin:

"Don't worry, it's not far away, it's ......"

"What's it?" I asked when I saw his grimace.

"It's the place where people are locked up, it's hard to save!" He sighed.

I glanced at Da Fei and slowly lowered my chopsticks.

"Little brother, where is this person locked up, why is it difficult to save, you make it clear! Let's figure it out together. ”

The little fruit farmer nodded:

"The man was locked up in the cellar under the cherry tree of the village chief's house!"

When I heard the three words of the village chief's family, I was stunned. Ask softly:

"Little brother, where did this news come from, is it accurate? The village chief sees us as a thorn in the eye, if you want to make a move, you have to succeed once, if you save the wrong person, even the two of us have to get in, and then your fruit money will not be compensated! ”

The little fruit farmer was a little unhappy when he heard this, gave me a blank look, and said confidently:

"My fourth master is the village party secretary, he told me the news personally, he went closest to the village chief, he said, on the night you were arrested, on the other side of the village, a group of people were arrested, there are men and women, and a stubborn old man, this is the same as what you said, can it be wrong?"

I was relieved to hear him say this, presumably, Liu Xigui must have heard nonsense from me and Da Fei, so he immediately sent someone to arrest him.

But when I recall it carefully, I just went to Liu Xigui's house last night, and although his yard is not small, I really didn't see any cherry trees?

I thought for a moment, and then asked:

"Little brother, to be honest, when we first entered the village, I had already gone to the village chief's house to keep an eye on it, and the big yard was empty, paved with cement, and there were no cherry trees in sight!"

The little fruit farmer was not surprised, and snorted coldly when he heard this, and muttered:

"Can I let you see it, although the village chief doesn't go to pan for gold, but just selling tickets, he has made a lot of money over the years, you see those three big tiled houses, that's a drop in the bucket!"

As soon as I heard this, I felt interesting, could it be that this village chief's family has something else?

Sure enough, the little brother of the fruit farmer hesitated for a moment and then continued:

"I couldn't talk nonsense about this, but I forgive you for not daring to come again after this lesson, let me tell you, the village chief's house is not as simple as it seems, there is an old tunnel in his main house, and after running through that tunnel, you can come out of a certain place in the back mountain, where is the real village chief's house!"

Da Fei scolded his mother when he heard this, and sneered:

"Hey, it's interesting, this rich man made a fake home for the villagers to see, and he guarded the gold and silver mountains to live in a paradise?"

When I heard this, I suddenly realized, and thought to myself, no wonder those two stupid fat men dared to drive into the yard last night to clean up the warehouse stones, and dared to fight, it turned out that the village chief did not live in that house at all.

"Is this what your fourth master told you?" As soon as I finished speaking, the little fruit farmer nodded again and again.

"Yes, few people in the whole village know this secret, I was brought up by the fourth master since I was a child, I pestered him yesterday to ask, and finally told me!"

Although I didn't follow the little fruit farmer to the fourth master's house yesterday, it doesn't look like a lie to see how he is and how he talks and behaves at these times.

I glanced at Dafei and saw that he also nodded in agreement.

It is true that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and it falls into such a desperate situation step by step, but I didn't expect it to bring hope to this humble little fruit farmer.

Da Fei rolled up his sleeves and couldn't hold back his excitement, Zhang Luo said:

"Then what are you hesitating about, I'll save people tonight!"

The fruit farmer "tsk" and said:

"You think it's so easy, my fourth master can say it, the village chief's house can't be entered casually, it's easy to die!"

"Easy to die?" I asked him repeatedly:

"What's the matter, is there a trap in the tunnel leading to the back mountain?"

The little fruit farmer's head shook his head like a rattle and said:

"My fourth master said that there are snakes in the tunnel, and the others refuse to say whether they are alive or dead!"

There are snakes?!

I don't know the size of the tunnel space, but if I really meet a snake, it's still a big one. Troublesome.

Da Fei pursed his lips, poured a ruthless energy, and cursed:

"Fuck it, don't talk about snakes, even if there is a dragon, I'm going to save my uncle tonight, and by the way, I'll peel off the skin of that ungrateful Liu Xigui!"

This matter must not be so simple, this trip is very dangerous, this little fruit farmer is also a real person, I don't think there is any need to involve him, persuaded:

"Little brother, tonight on the sword mountain and the sea of fire, my two brothers must also have to go, you are from this village, don't go, don't worry, when I save people and come back, I will definitely pay you back!"

The little fruit farmer was also embarrassed to listen to my words, but after a few minutes, he took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said:

"That's not good, I took so much effort to beg my fourth master to tell the news, what if you really ran away after saving people? Besides, I don't know if you're good or bad, when the time comes, meet the village chief, don't do anything out of the ordinary! ”

I persuaded him a few more times, and when I saw that he really insisted, I had to agree to take him with me.

I'm with Da Fei. After hastily eating breakfast, the little brother of the fruit farmer went back to prepare, and with a nervous mood, he waited until the sun set in the afternoon to look forward to his return.

He brought a large package containing a flashlight, a crowbar, a lighter, and several bottles of aged vinegar.

The first few things are easy to understand, Da Fei glanced at it, pointed to the vinegar bottle on the ground and asked:

"What does this vinegar mean?"

While handing out the equipment, the smallholder explains:

"Snakes are afraid of smoke, fire, and pungent smells, so let's pour a bottle of vinegar on our bodies before we leave!"

Then he took three handfuls of hay from the ground, and stuffed them into the two of us, saying:

"Carry more grass too, if the old vinegar on the body doesn't work, we can set the grass on fire and use fireworks to drive the snake away!"

Seeing that the little fruit farmer thought so thoughtfully, I saved a lot of trouble with Da Fei, and after having dinner together, I saw that the twilight was four, and there were no pedestrians on the village road, I, Da Fei, and the little fruit farmer with a wolf dog finally set off for the dangerous village chief's house!!
