Chapter 3: Wei Qiming

When the patrol was advancing, Tang Anshu closed his eyes again and listened carefully, until he heard the footsteps of the patrol team completely covered by the sound of the waves and the sea breeze, and he could no longer hear it, he opened his eyes and said, "Go far!" ”

"Up!" Wu Sihe climbed up quickly in the shroud.

Soon, the three of them climbed to the top of the cliff, and looked around at the edge, looking at the torches in the hands of the patrol in the distance, and after making sure that the soldiers were at a safe distance, they got up and trotted forward.

After trotting for less than ten meters, Wu Sihe stopped, and at the same time stretched out his arms to stop Liu Luoqu and Tang Anshu on the left and right sides from stepping forward again: "Stop!" There's a cliff ahead! ”

Tang Anshu leaned over to take a look, and then motioned to the other two to squat down: "Just like the information I bought before, the prison is indeed built in the mountain canyon in the center of Snake Heart Island. ”

Wu Sihe nodded: "This kind of place is easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”

Liu Luoqu stared at the dark front: "But once you attack it, this place will soon fall." ”

Tang Anshu pointed to a light source that seemed to be hanging in the air in the distance and said: "That should be the eye of heaven that the patrol team said before, the observation tower in the center of the prison, because the tower is dark, so after nightfall, once the light on the top of the tower is lit, it is like an eye hanging in the air." ”

Liu Luoqu frowned and said, "Why is it called Prison? ”

"The fifteenth layer of hell in the eighteen layers of hell is called the Hell, which means Ling Chi Hell, but it wasn't called that before." Tang Anshu explained, "In the past, it was called Haiyan Island, and in the early years, a large number of petrels were inhabited, but later, for unknown reasons, the petrels were gone, and Sun San used the anti-Qing fortress left in the last years of the Ming Dynasty to build this prison. ”

"Can't see what's down there?" Liuluoqu tentatively shifted his steps and looked towards the dark canyon, but could see nothing, as if everything below had been swallowed up by darkness after the evening had come.

Wu Sihe turned his head to look at Tang Anshu: "Anshu, how to go next?" ”

Tang Anshu recalled carefully: "The most convenient way is to take the passage in the mountain, but that is completely impossible, because the defense is too tight, so the only way is to climb down the cliff at night, as for what will happen after going down, he doesn't know the guy who sold us the information, because he was only a peripheral patrol before." ”

After Tang Anshu finished speaking, his brows furrowed, thinking about something.

Wu Sihe also squatted there and thought, although he had been doing prison robbery business for most of his life, this was the first time he had seen this kind of island black prison, and he didn't have detailed information, not even a decent map.

Liu Luoqu saw that neither of them spoke, so he simply lay down and rested, he was a killer, let him sneak in and kill him, but he must also have early intelligence support, otherwise he could not do anything.

The man who sold them the information about the prison said that the prison was divided into at least three levels. Why does he say at least? It's because he doesn't know the specific situation either, he was only a soldier in the perimeter patrol before.

As far as he knew, in addition to the several patrols on the beach of Serpent's Heart, there were several patrols at the upper end of the cliff, and several fixed sentry posts in the mountain passage below the cliff.

The most important thing is that on the Tianyan Observation Tower, there are two teams responsible for monitoring around the clock, these two squads have a total of 12 people, a squad of 6 people, rotated every 12 hours, and these 12 people are all sharpshooters carefully selected by Sun San.

Not only are these sharpshooters proficient, but they are also armed with new German Mauser rifles and Russian Mosin Nagant rifles, not Hanyang-made rifles that are imitated from old German rifles used by ordinary soldiers.

Thinking of this, Tang Anshu opened his eyes and said, "We can't act tonight. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wu Sihe and Liu Luoqu immediately turned their heads to look at him.

Wu Sihe immediately asked, "Why?" ”

Tang Anshu explained: "We don't know the situation below at all, even if we want to take advantage of the night, it will be tomorrow night, we must catch a living, otherwise, once we go down, let alone save people, we will not be able to protect ourselves." ”

Liu Luo channel: "Although it is a solution, but once it is daylight, we have nowhere to hide." ”

Tang Anshu got up and looked in the direction the patrol had come from: "Above the cliff, there are four outposts built on the basis of ancient forts in the east, west, north and south, and there are trenches dug into ditches around us, so we can hide there temporarily. ”

Wu Sihe shook his head after hearing this: "However, if we catch the mouth, they will find that someone is missing, and the prison will immediately start to be vigilant, let alone sneak in, even if we really find Wei Qiming, it will be impossible to escape." ”

Tang Anshu pondered for a moment: "The matter of catching the live mouth can only depend on the timing, let's go and find out the situation of the outpost first......"

When he said this, Tang Anshu wanted to speak and stopped, and Wu Sihe and Liu Luoqu both looked at him.

Liu Luoqu asked, "An Shu, what's wrong?" ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "I always feel that this action is too hasty. ”

Wu Sihe said: "Taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others, since the employer asked for it and provided preliminary information, we have no choice." ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "I still insist that if the situation changes, we must withdraw immediately." ”

Wu Sihe looked at Liu Luoqu, and Liu Luoqu also nodded in agreement with Tang Anshu, after all, people only have one life.

Wu Sihe didn't say anything, turned to leave, and the formation of the three of them also changed, and they moved towards the position of the post on the left.

The cell door was finally opened, and four soldiers rushed in, two of them grabbed Yang Ming's body by the hands and feet and carried it out, and the other two carried buckets and mops to sweep the ground.

When everything was in order, the soldiers withdrew, and a man in military uniform, with a mustache, a smile, and a horsewhip in his hand, walked into the cell.

The man held a horsewhip and slapped it on the wall, looking at Wei Qiming, who had his back to him.

"Mr. Wei is very talented, he can kill people with his mouth." The man smiled and stood behind Wei Qiming.

Wei Qiming, who lowered his head, smiled and asked, "It turned out to be a full brother?" How? Are you developed? Still an official? ”

The man named Zhang Faquan looked at Wei Qiming coldly and did not speak.

Wei Qiming finally got up, turned around slowly, looked at the man with a smile, and stretched out his hand at the same time.

The man looked at Wei Qiming's handsome face, and it was hard to imagine that a man with such a face would be the murderous king who terrified other prisoners.

The man did not shake Wei Qiming's outstretched hand, but handed the horsewhip to Wei Qiming's hand: "My name is Zhang Dingfeng now, Zhang Faquan is a pseudonym, you should know, the first time we met, when I told you that my name was Zhang Faquan, you said, that is not my real name, you forgot?" ”

Wei Qiming kept a smile on his face and held the horsewhip as if he was holding Zhang Dingfeng's hand: "I don't have a good memory, forgive me." ”

Zhang Dingfeng pulled back the horsewhip suddenly, and the moment he pulled it out, Wei Qiming's hand holding the horsewhip shook, and when he opened it, two blood stains appeared on the joints and palms of his hands.

Zhang Dingfeng approached Wei Qiming and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wei, for the sake of our former cellmates, you are doing well, tell me, who is the master?" ”

Wei Qiming grinned: "Faquan, you don't have to be so polite, don't say that you can do well, I feel uncomfortable listening to it, we swore before, we will share difficulties and blessings." ”

Zhang Dingfeng's eyes narrowed, he took off his hat, and combed his hair with his hands: "Oh, I remembered, we swore an oath, so well, you also said it, share the blessings, you tell me, who is the master, as long as you tell me, I promise to let Sun Dashuai let you go, and give you a large sum of money, so that you can have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life." ”

Wei Qiming's face was embarrassed: "Yes, those who have sworn will be in trouble, or will you take off this skin and come back to live with me?" ”

Zhang Dingfeng knew that Wei Qiming was playing tricks on himself, so he took a deep breath and lowered his head in thought.

Wei Qiming bent over, leaned over to look at Zhang Dingfeng's face, and said, "You just said that as long as I told the whereabouts of Tongye, you will let Zhang Dashuai let me go?" I don't believe it. ”

Zhang Dingfeng raised his head: "I am a person who says everything and does what I say." ”

Wei Qiming took a step back, leaning against the wall and recalling: "I remembered one thing, once upon a time, my neighbor's house had a dog, one day, the dog came to my house, and then spoke, I was frightened at that time!" ”

Zhang Dingfeng smiled and looked at Wei Qiming.

Wei Qiming said again: "The dog said to me, Mr. Wei, as long as you give me enough meat, I will go back and persuade my master to give him his wife to you." I was surprised that the dog could talk, but I couldn't believe it, so I said to it, "You're just a dog......"

Wei Qiming said and pointed at Zhang Dingfeng: "How can a dog make decisions for its owner!?" ”

As soon as Wei Qiming's words fell, Zhang Dingfeng kicked him in the abdomen, and when Wei Qiming leaned over to cover his abdomen, Zhang Dingfeng stepped forward and grabbed his neck and pressed him against the wall.

Zhang Dingfeng approached Wei Qiming, his lips trembled slightly with anger, and he said for a long time: "The surname Wei, I want to kill you, it's easier than me drinking saliva." ”

Wei Qiming replied with difficulty: "Simple? Here, it's not easy to drink saliva, because there is no fresh water here, and fresh water is all delivered by boat......"

After speaking, Wei Qiming squeezed out a smile.

Zhang Dingfeng roared violently, waved his fist and punched Wei Qiming, Wei Qiming shrank in the corner of the wall with his head in his hands, and sang a song while being beaten: "Our father of the country, the first revolution, the revolution is like a flower, overthrowing the autocracy, building the republic, and giving birth to the democratic Chinese ......"

Wei Qiming sang the entire "Commemorative Song of the Founding Father" in Zhang Dingfeng's violent beating, and when he sang the last sentence, with a bloody face, he wiped the blood off his eyelids, looked up at Zhang Dingfeng, and said in a playful tone: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades must work hard." ”

"I ......" Zhang Dingfeng raised his fist and was about to swing it towards Wei Qiming's face, when a voice suddenly came from the door and stopped him.

"Stop!" The voice echoed in the cell, although it was not high, but it was very strong, and there seemed to be a hidden force in it, which turned into a pair of hands, directly grabbing Zhang Dingfeng's raised fist.

Zhang Dingfeng turned his head slightly and looked at the door, but he didn't see anyone, only the black figure projected in from the corridor outside the door, but he knew who was speaking, so he immediately stood up, and at the same time sorted out his clothes, and then stood up and shouted: "Report to the handsome!" ”
