βChapter 34: Escape from the Dark Room
After Wolf Qing shot and killed the investigator, he just wanted to escape, Su Mei was shot, Professor Liang was just an old man in a wheelchair, these two people did not pose any threat to Wolf Qing, so he saved time, packed up his belongings, locked Su Mei and Professor Liang in the kennel, and fled in a hurry.
The farm is in a remote area, and although it is not far from the detention center and orphanage, the shouts for help are certainly not heard.
It was getting dark, there was silence in the kennel, Su Mei was in a coma, lying motionless on the ground, her life was in danger, if she could not be sent to the hospital as soon as possible, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Professor Liang began to take a closer look at the kennel, which was a house used to deliver dogs, and the bowl on the floor was filled with disinfectant, and Professor Liang tapped the bowl with his chopsticks, and the dog tied to the door became agitated, barking and jumping around.
There are only four directions to escape from this house: roof, wall, door, and underground.
The only tools you can use are a bowl and a pair of chopsticks!
Professor Leung first ruled out the possibility of digging a wall to escape, which is made of brick and cement, and it is difficult to dig a hole with only a bowl and chopsticks. Once the bowl is broken and the chopsticks are broken, other escape routes will be dashed by the loss of tools.
There is a foundation under the wall, and there is little chance of digging a passage from under the foundation with bowls and chopsticks.
Now there are only two escape directions left - the roof and the door.
The roof is about three meters high from the ground, and Professor Liang's wheelchair was thrown out of the door by the wolf, and he can only use his arms to support the ground and move around the room little by little.
His first thought was to take off his clothes and tear them into strips of cloth to make rope. This gives you one more means of escape. When it comes to escaping, a rope is an essential thing!
However, when the rope was ready, a new problem arose: how to hang the rope on the beams made of tripods?
Professor Liang looked at the bowl and chopsticks on the ground and thought to himself that if the chopsticks were placed on the bowl in the shape of a cross and tied firmly, they could be tied to the rope as a barb, so that the rope could also be hung on the beam.
But a cruel problem was in front of him: the white-haired old man simply didn't have the strength to climb up on his arms!
He picked up the chopsticks and studied them carefully, the chopsticks were made of bamboo and looked very sturdy.
He came up with a new method: throw the rope to the edge of the tripod, closest to the reed meadow on the roof, and then use chopsticks to drill wood on the wooden door to make a fire, ignite the rope, and the rope ignites the reeds on the roof, and the fire breaks out, which may cause others to come to the rescue. But it is very dangerous to do this, just like **, the roof must be burning fiercely, the smoke is billowing out, and the two people in the house will definitely choke to death by the smoke even if they are not scorched.
Professor Liang began to look at the door, which had a wolfdog tied to the handle of the door, and if he wanted to escape from the door, he had to solve the problem of the dog. If you drill wood to make a fire and use a rope to set the door on fire, can you burn the dog to death?
The door is a barrier separating people from dogs, and if the dog doesn't die and the door burns down, then the end is likely to be eaten by the dog!
Which is better, being burned to death or being eaten by dogs?
Professor Liang began to get anxious, he knew that if he couldn't escape, Su Mei would definitely die. When a person is hungry, he can even eat human flesh. He remembered a real case in the United States, where the family went on vacation and encountered heavy snow blocking the mountains, and in the end only the father survived - he ate his wife and daughter!
Professor Liang tapped the bowl with his chopsticks, and the hungry dog outside the door began to scratch the door with its paws, making a series of terrifying sounds.
Professor Leung tried to calm himself down, and he thought about three questions.
1. If you don't have a dog, how do you escape?
2. How should you kill a dog?
3. Is it possible to harness the power of dogs?
He pondered, and it was clear that the door was the safest way to escape, and he only needed to kill the dog and then think about breaking into the door.
However, it is not easy for an old man to kill a strong wolfdog, not to mention that the dog is separated by a door.
Professor Leung suddenly thought, can we attract dogs in?
This idea was like a lightning bolt that illuminated the darkness and gave him direction, and after careful consideration, Professor Liang thought of a way to escape.
He took the courage to break the bowl and sharpen the chopsticks with the pieces. Professor Liang took a brief measurement, and drew a circle on the ground behind the door, Su Mei was lying on the wall and still not awake, Professor Liang couldn't care about the embarrassment in order to escape, he pulled a piece of in that circle, and then twisted the rope into a slipknot rope sleeve and placed it around the stool.
He used four tools to escape: a bowl, chopsticks, a stool, and a rope.
Fragments of bowls and sharpened chopsticks can be used as weapons to attract dogs, and if there is no stool, they can only cut off their own flesh as bait, and ropes are used to lasso the dog's head, which is a necessary step to kill the dog.
Professor Liang kept knocking on the bowl, and the dog became agitated, its sensitive nose already smelling poop, and began to use its paws to pick up dirt under the door, which was sandy and muddy. In order to prevent the room from flooding, the wolf green once raised the chamber, so the bottom of the door was still some distance from the foundation, which was enough for a dog to dig a hole and get in. Dogs not only have a nature to eat, but also an instinct to burrow. The hungry dog desperately dug with its paws in order to eat the poop, and finally, it dug a passage under the door and poked its head in, the length of the dog chain was limited, and the dog could not reach the poop in front of it, and it tried to stick its head out of the hole, but Professor Liang strangled its neck with a rope.
The dog struggled vigorously and tried to retract from the hole, and Professor Liang quickly pulled the rope tight and tied it to the handle inside the door.
Next, Professor Liang killed the dog with sharpened chopsticks and sharp splinters, and the whole process was thrilling, in addition to the dog's wail, Professor Liang was also talking to himself viciously: When I was young, my nickname was Hunter, which is a crepe word, and I preferred to call me a butcher by my colleagues in the police department...... Give you another throat
Come up...... It's not dead yet, the trachea is cut...... You want me to surrender, dream...... If you dare to catch me, I'm going to tie you up in a sieve, I'm going to take off your clothes...... Go to hell!
Finally, Professor Liang was exhausted, and the dog remained motionless and died. He broke off the chains and ropes, dragged the dead dog out of the hole, and then, with all his might, he dragged the wrasse out of the hole to the door, outside, the stars were shining, and a crescent moon hung in the air.
That night, Mrs. Luo from the orphanage heard a knock on the door, and she got up to see an old man covered in blood. The old man was almost wearing no clothes, there were several deep scratches on his chest, he was sitting in a wheelchair, and there was a dying woman in his arms, the wheelchair was not big, it was difficult to carry two people, the old man should have moved to the door of the orphanage with great difficulty little by little, he was so tired that he couldn't speak, and after a long time, he gasped and struggled to say two words: "Hospital ......"
Mrs. Luo's orphanage did not have a telephone, so she immediately called a few children, and everyone used a manpower tricycle to send two people to the hospital. Mrs. Luo didn't know the identities of the two, she helped with the hospitalization procedures, and there was a little problem when she paid the deposit - she didn't have enough money.
Mrs. Luo took out a gold bar, and she said to the hospital billing staff, "It's important to save people first." β
The hospital toll collector said: "We only accept cash, and your gold bar looks fake, and there is mud on it." β
Mrs. Luo said: "I promise, this gold bar is real, I am Mrs. Luo from the orphanage, and I dug this gold bar in the greenhouse." β
The hospital billing staff said: "Ah, you are Grandma Luo, I have heard of it, you are a good person, let's be hospitalized first." β
When Su Mei woke up, she found that Hualong and Bao Chu were sitting next to her, and Professor Liang was also lying on the hospital bed next to her, and the sun was shining outside the window. The three of them saw that she woke up, and they all smiled at her, and Su Mei said, "Why am I here...... Oh, remembered...... Seriously, I've never felt like the three of you are so important. β
Bao Chu said: "Sister Mei, you can take care of your injuries, we have the case." β
"Ai Mang has been arrested by us in the provincial capital, and he believes that he has been infected with AIDS by Director Peng, and this person is suspected of murder and is being interrogated," said Hua Long. β
Professor Liang said: "What Captain Niu was looking for in the bamboo forest was neither a corpse nor a clue to solve the case, he was looking for gold bars. Those gold bars were probably buried near the detention center before the Kuomintang fled to Taiwan, Wolf Qing killed Captain Niu, and killed the scout with the same gun, Xiaomei, this girl has a big life, was shot in the shoulder, and Wolf Qing is currently wanted. β
Bao Chu said: "That Mrs. Luo, it's very strange, where did she get her gold bars?" β
Professor Liang said: "Xiaobao, the gold buried in the ground will run, do you know? β
The dragon said, "Can gold still grow legs?" β
Professor Liang smiled and said: "Yes, I believe that good people have good rewards, those gold bars were originally buried near the detention center, but fifty years later, the gold ran to Mrs. Luo's flower garden, in a few days, let's visit her together, she will tell us the truth." β
