CHAPTER XVI

Qi Hai hurriedly said: "Okay, then you can tell me what you know, and I will let you go." ”

Brother Hei and Xiao Niu looked at each other, and Brother Hei looked at Lao Su who was standing aside with a knife, and was quickly thinking of countermeasures.

After a long time, he finally spoke, "Well, I will tell you the order we have received, and I hope you will be able to speak your mind." ”

Then Brother Hei thought for a while, and then said: "We obey a Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin is extremely mysterious, I have never seen him, he will give us orders through another person called Ghost Master, after completing the order, we can get a very rich reward, all we know is this, if you don't believe it, you can ask Lao Su, is what I said true." ”

Qi Hai looked at Lao Su, and Lao Su also nodded lightly. Then Qi Hai continued: "Okay, I believe you, so what is your mission this time?" Why arrest us? ”

Brother Hei said: "We just received an order, the reason we don't know, the order is for us to come here to find a man in his thirties, with very white skin and a weak body, that's all. ”

"So you think we're the ones you're commanding to look for?" Qi Hai answered.

Brother Hei shook his head lightly and said, "Yes, but now it seems that maybe you are not, I thought you were after seeing you, but I didn't expect you to be weak, which is not in line." ”

Qi Hai was noncommittal, and he continued: "Let me ask you again, did the two old men in this mountain also be captured by you?" ”

Brother Hei hurriedly denied: "Old man? What old man, we don't know. ”

The calf was impatient, and he said, "If you want to kill, you can do it, we have said everything that needs to be said, and we don't know anything else, and it is useless for you to ask." ”

Qi Hai looked at Gao Chuan, and Gao Chuan was also at a loss, not knowing whether this was true or not.

At this moment, a lightning bolt struck down from the sky, and it struck a thick pine tree next to them.

Everyone was shocked, and hurriedly turned their heads to look, only to see a spark rising from a half-hugging pine tree, but the spark was quickly extinguished by heavy rain, and then they heard the "whirring rumble", and the pine tree was split in half, and fell aside in a blink of an eye.

Brother Hei and Maverick saw the opportunity, and when everyone was distracted, they quickly ran away, and disappeared into the dark rainy night in a blink of an eye. Lao Su came back to his senses and was busy chasing after him, but they had disappeared without a trace, Lao Su chased two steps, and saw Qi Hai standing still and didn't dare to chase anymore.

After Brother Black and Maverick escaped, the three of them were the only ones left.

Lao Su said: "Brother, thank you for saving me today, otherwise I will definitely not survive." ”

Qi Hai waved his hand and said, "I just want to know who you are and what you want to do, if you really think that I saved you, please answer the questions in our hearts." ”

Lao Su was silent, and then said: "Brother, to tell you the truth, what Heizi said just now is the truth, we are just small soldiers, as long as we complete the orders issued from above and get our reward, we don't care about the rest, so even if you ask, I can't answer." ”

Gao Chuan suddenly asked, "So, do you know a middle-aged man?" ”

Lao Su hurriedly asked: "Middle-aged man, what kind of middle-aged man?" ”

Gao Chuan recalled it and described: "Well, this person is about 1.8 meters, about the same height as me, of medium height, looks like he is forty or fifty years old, and has gray hair. ”

Lao Su thought about it according to Gao Chuan's description, shook his head and said, "You say that, the scope is too big, where can you tell who you are talking about?" ”

Qi Hai also said: "Yes, Xiaochuan, such people are everywhere, you think about it carefully, and then talk about it in detail." ”

Gao Chuan retorted: "No, it's not, you don't know, this person is definitely not the kind of person who can be seen everywhere, he gives people a very peculiar feeling. ”

"Can you describe his characteristics?" Lao Su also seemed to be interested.

Gao Chuan thought about it, although it was only a short one-sided relationship, but the appearance of that person was already deeply imprinted in his mind, Gao Chuan said while recalling: "The characteristics are that they have a thin face, a high nose bridge, a dignified appearance, and they look quite majestic and well-dressed." Oh, by the way, he's followed by a big strong man, like a bodyguard. ”

After listening to Gao Chuan's description, Lao Su still shook his head, he said: "I really don't know this, I've never seen such a person." ”

Gao Chuan and Qi Hai couldn't help but be a little disappointed, Gao Chuan said: "Let's stop raining here, let's find a place to avoid it first." ”

Several wounds on Lao Su's body at this moment were drenched in blood under the rain, and he felt more than pain all over his body, and hurriedly said: "Yes, this rain is too big, and it is very dangerous in this woods, so let's avoid it first." ”

Qi Hai also felt that the top priority was to avoid the rain first, in case another lightning bolt came down, and it would be all over them. He remembered that there was a small cave in the lower reaches of the river near the black stone stone, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first, and you follow me." ”

They came to the river together, in the heavy rain, the water of the river was still rising, Qi Hai led the way in front, and he walked downstream along the river.

He hadn't gone far when he suddenly saw something wriggling in front of him. He was startled, thinking that there was someone else, but he immediately realized that it was not a person, and he immediately reacted, it was rhubarb.

He said to Gao Chuan: "Look, it may be rhubarb in front, it must be not lightly injured, go over and take a look." ”

As soon as Gao Chuan heard that it was Rhubarb, he thought of what Rhubarb had done just now to save himself, and hurriedly ran over with Qi Hai.

When I looked closer, I saw that in the rainstorm, Rhubarb was covered with injuries, and there was a piece of blood and cement around him, and he was no longer good. He couldn't even make a sound, it saw the figures of Qi Hai and Gao Chuan, so he struggled desperately to move.

Seeing Rhubarb's miserable appearance, Qi Hai felt a faint pain in his heart, he held Rhubarb's head and watched Rhubarb slowly close his eyes.

Gao Chuan also knelt on the ground, he reached out and stroked the rhubarb that had lost his breath, tears and rain flowed down, he blamed himself and said: "It's all because of me, the rhubarb died to save me, it wouldn't have died if it hadn't jumped out to save me." ”

Qi Hai was stunned for a while, and then said quietly: "Okay, don't say stupid things, maybe this is its fate." ”

Takakawa suggested, "Let's bury it." ”

Qi Hai nodded: "Okay, let's go to the cave to shelter from the rain first, and then find a place to bury it at dawn." ”

Then, he and Gao Chuan lifted the rhubarb together, and only then did they realize that Lao Su, who was following behind him just now, had disappeared.

"What about people?" Gao Chuan asked hurriedly.

Qi Hai looked around, shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe I'll leave by myself." ”

"So what now?"

Qi Hai touched the rhubarb's head in his arms and said, "Let's go to shelter from the rain first, since he sneaked away, we can't find it, even if we find it, we can't ask anything, let's wait for dawn to make plans." ”

Soon, they found the cave, which was very hidden, and the entrance to the cave was overgrown with vines and shrubs, especially in this early autumn season. It took a lot of effort for the two of them to get rid of the weeds, and then they carried the rhubarb into the cave.

There was a raging storm outside, and the two of them were shivering from the cold because they were soaking wet. Fortunately, the cave can shelter from the wind and rain, and the weather is not completely cooler now, so the two of them will not be too difficult.

Takakawa took off his shirt, wrung it out, and curled up aside. Qi Hai put the rhubarb on the ground, and also sat down against the stone wall, he looked at the dead rhubarb, and for a while, countless memories poured out.

When he first met Rhubarb, Rhubarb was still a small dog, and that was more than ten years ago. At that time, he had just left the forest farm, and he moved from the forest farm to the school because of his studies. Soon after, the grandfather bought a dog cub from outside and kept it with him, which was rhubarb. To a certain extent, rhubarb once filled a lot of the loneliness caused by not being by his grandfather's side. In the next ten years, every time Qi Hai came back, Rhubarb was excited to run far away and jump up and down around him, he watched Rhubarb grow up little by little, get old little by little, and unconsciously, Rhubarb has become an important member of his family.

And now, grandpa suddenly disappeared, there is no news, rhubarb is gone, it seems that everything has become unknown, and what can he do?
