Chapter 37: The Old House
This inconspicuous passenger tricycle just went around and around in the suburbs, and it didn't stop until it was almost dark.
Jin Nanming was sitting in the car, really boring, and Tang Yunshuang didn't want to chat more with him, so Jin Nanming had been scolding this tricycle for almost an hour.
At this moment, Jin Nanming's mouth was also a little dry, and he turned over a hot water kettle in the back seat of the car, I don't know how long it hasn't been used, it's almost moldy inside, how can there be water to drink!
And how did this kettle come about, Jin Nanming forgot a little, could it be that his father threw it in the car?
"I said, have we been discovered? Why do they keep going around like this? Jin Nanming nested in the co-pilot, and he didn't have much patience.
Tang Yunshuang has actually thought about this question many times, but after careful consideration, he feels that it is impossible, because if it is discovered by the other party, then the other party should find a way to get rid of it, or simply have a hard time.
However, the other party is now maintaining the same pace as always, walking slowly and leisurely, which means that the other party may not have noticed that he was being followed.
He just habitually takes long distances to lose sight of his pursuers.
Therefore, it would be more accurate to say that the other party is an experienced and cautious person, and this can minimize the possibility of being traced.
The facts also quickly confirmed Tang Yunshuang's guess, and after going around for a long time, the tricycle finally stopped in front of a two-story old house in the deep mountains and old forests.
This neighborhood is sparsely populated, and there are no other houses next to the old house, the lights are dim, eerie, and alive like a haunted house.
Tang Yunshuang saw the tricycle stop from a distance, and hurriedly found a blind spot to park, and immediately turned off the fire, and together with Jin Nanming, the cat secretly observed in the dry ditch next to him.
After the driver of the tricycle got out of the car, he learned a few owl calls, which were vivid, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Tang Yunshuang would definitely think that this was the real owl calling.
After the cry fell, the haunted old mansion suddenly lit up, and this cry was a code.
At this time, a young man dressed quite locally came out of the house, looking not very old, about twenty years old, as soon as he saw the tricycle driver, he immediately shouted: "Brother Ji!" ”
Jin Nanming heard it from afar, but he heard it vaguely, was stunned for a moment, and said, "Brother Ji? Is there anyone still calling such a strange title these days? Shouldn't men be more appropriately called Brother Duck? ”
Tang Yunshuang almost laughed out loud when he heard it next to him, Tang Yunshuang didn't expect that this fierce and vicious Jin Nanming would actually be funny.
But Tang Yunshuang soon lost the meaning of laughing, because Tang Yunshuang saw that Xu Mu'er, who was still in a coma at this time, was carried off the tricycle, and then Brother Ji and the others worked together to carry Xu Mu'er into the house.
This scene came and went so fast that if you hadn't been staring at it, you wouldn't even have felt what was going on over there.
Familiar!
After several people entered the house together, two people who looked like old men walked in the house, and when the old man came out, he sat at the door and began to pretend to drink tea and play chess.
Obviously, these two old men were sitting at the door to let out the wind.
At this moment, this little haunted house in the mountains and forests suddenly turned into a paradise scene:
With the smoke of cooking, the sound of chickens and dogs, and the laughter and talk, no one would have thought that this would be the kidnapper's lair.
"What now? How do you get close to that house? Tang Yunshuang suddenly became embarrassed.
Although the wooden house looks old and dilapidated, it has an excellent location, backed by a towering mountain, in front of the house is a township road, and beyond the partition wall of the road is a stream, so the view of the wooden house is very wide.
The construction of this wooden house seems to be old and dilapidated, but in fact it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is extremely elegant.
If you want to break through directly from the front, it will be difficult to reach the sky.
If you forcibly advance, you will inevitably be startled, and in the end nothing will be found.
Bypass the mountains behind you? The woods are dense, there are no gaps, and the weeds are all one person tall, so I'm afraid it's also difficult.
didn't find a countermeasure for a while, so Tang Yunshuang could only send the location information to the policeman first, and then make observations.
Just when Tang Yunshuang was in a dilemma, Jin Nanming suddenly opened his voice: "Hey, I have a way to ......"
"What's the solution?" Tang Yunshuang was overjoyed.
"I think we can pretend to be a couple......"
"Ah???h
Tang Yunshuang's face was full of question marks, why did he still need to pretend to be a couple to rescue Mu'er?
"Don't look at me like that, I'm serious!" Jin Nanming's expression was still relatively serious at the moment, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Tang Yunshuang saw that Jin Nanming didn't look like he was joking, so he asked carefully, "Then you will talk about it carefully?" ”
"If you think about it, there are very few people living here, but there are a few large and small attractions we just passed, who else will come to this kind of place, except for couples who love to travel? And we're still young men and women! ”
Jin Nanming said it clearly, with a serious face, his face was slightly red, and he seemed to be a little nervous.
But Jin Nanming will be nervous? Tang Yunshuang felt that he might have seen it wrong.
"However, in the case of a man and a woman like ours, it may also be brother and sister."
As soon as Tang Yunshuang thought of pretending to be a couple with this person who had bullied him, he felt uncomfortable and unnatural at all.
"Have you ever seen a brother and sister of our age come to travel to the deep mountains and old forests together? Even if there were, it should be a fake brother and sister, right? ”
Jin Nanming's rebuttal does sound reasonable, but Tang Yunshuang really can't pass this level in his heart, how strange he thinks about pretending to be a couple with Jin Nanming.
Tang Yunshuang was hesitating, and Jin Nanming asked, "Don't you want to save Xu Mu'er?" ”
"I think!" Tang Yunshuang blurted out.
"Then what are you fussing about? Or do you have a better way than pretending to be a lost couple? What do you think is a reasonable reason not to be suspicious in a place like this to walk around on someone's turf? ”
"This ...... But ......"
Tang Yunshuang thought about it carefully, there was indeed no better way......
Jin Nanming's method may indeed be the only countermeasure that is likely to approach the wooden house without arousing suspicion and commotion.
In this kind of poor place, there are no shops, no hotels, and no other people's homes, no matter what reason ordinary people walk around and stay here, it will look very strange and eye-catching, and arouse the suspicion of the other party.
Only a traveler who pretends to be a lost traveler from the scenic spot can approach the wooden house with the mountains and rivers behind it as if nothing happened.
At the very least, this argument can be deceived and justified......
"Don't hesitate anymore, it's getting dark, if you keep grinding, Xu Mu'er is afraid that something will happen!"
There was no choice, Tang Yunshuang could only agree to Jin Nanming's method.
"It just so happens that I have some travel equipment in my car, a water bottle, and two sets of jackets for mountaineering, one red and one blue, you can choose one set."
Tang Yunshuang looked at the two boys' jackets that Jin Nanming took out of the car, and could only choose a red one......
What a treasure trove in the car of a rich man......
