Chapter 40: Ordinary Applejack
Applejack is the first friend and best friend Chu Ye met when he first moved to the city when he was a child, the two used to be very close, and they were often said by their parents to be brothers in crotch pants, but unlike Chu Ye's honest study and university entrance examination, Applejack dropped out of high school after two years of study and went out to work.
Chu Ye didn't know what he was doing outside, until three years ago he suddenly heard that Ajie was arrested and sentenced to four years in prison for robbery, and Chu Ye hadn't seen him since then, and originally wanted to visit the prison, because the prison regulations didn't come to fruition, and there was no news about him later, the only change was that less than half a year after Ajie entered, his parents suddenly moved, and as a result, Ajie almost completely disappeared from Chu Ye's life.
In terms of time, Applejack should still be in prison at this time, how could he suddenly appear here? And even the three elders of Qingcheng are working under him.
Chu Ye felt that the most amazing thing was that the two of them actually got involved in the same thing, what happened to Ajie in the past three years? Chu Ye was so provoked by such curiosity that he couldn't help himself.
"I also asked Nie Weiguo earlier, those three old things were entrusted by others to go out of the mountain to help this so-called Jie Shao, but they don't talk about the people behind this, I think this Jie Shao is also doing things for others."
After Chu Ye finished speaking, Hu Lao added such a sentence.
Lan Yucheng was noncommittal, but asked, "Did this Han Shaojie learn martial arts or enter the army before he was arrested?" ”
"Nope." Chu Ye shook his head again and again, "After he went out to work, I met him many times, and it was no different from before. ”
"That's weird, he was released from prison ahead of schedule, and with your relationship, he should tell you soon, but you didn't know he came out until today, and a person who has never practiced martial arts or been a soldier is so powerful in just a few years, he has eaten a little bit in prison."
The meaning of Lan Yucheng's words is self-evident, since Ah Mingmen worked, Chu Ye has not met him a lot, he has been in many factories, and he has also seen the scene for others, but this kid has a big temper and does not like to obey, he often fights with people, fights with people inside the factory, and also fights with people outside, he has always been a thorn, so he can't stay in the factory for a long time.
The last time Chu Ye saw him was three months before he was arrested, when he was in an electronics factory in Wenzhou. I haven't seen him since, until I heard that he had been caught for robbery.
Applejack's experience is similar to that of most of the people in Chu Ye's hometown who go out to work, so there is no need for Chu Ye to hide it, and he tells Applejack's situation in detail.
Therefore, the source of Applejack's problem in this place is undoubtedly from her years in prison. After Chu Ye finished speaking, both Cheng Youmin and Teng Lao Wu showed suspicious expressions, obviously not believing Chu Ye's words.
The expressions on Lan Yucheng and Gui San's faces did not change much, only Xiao Jing's expression was a little silent, just like a doctor looking at a patient, serious and a little playful.
Chu Ye was open in his heart, and he didn't care whether they believed it or not, at this moment he just wanted to find the white snake's lair quickly, maybe Ajie would also appear. That's the only hope he has at the moment.
"Now I finally understand why I can't find the details of this Jie Shao, thinking that the person who can invite the three elders of Qingcheng must not be an ordinary person, so I put all my attention on those families, rich people and even underworld bosses, who would have thought that he was just a guy who went out to work without graduating from high school without any background."
Lan Yucheng let out a relieved laugh with the help of the ghost three, and was very happy that he had finally figured out something.
At this time, they returned to the forest where the battle had just begun, a forest had been destroyed, and there were blood stains everywhere on the ground, Nie Weiguo only cleaned up the body of the short and fat old man, and the others were still lying in this forest waiting to rot or be found.
The cold air was filled with a faint smell of blood, and the desire for flesh and blood in Chu Ye's body became restless again, and he quickly stopped and didn't go any further.
Lan Yucheng also stopped at this time and said, "The fifth child has seen you, and the others will rest for a while." ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Lan."
Teng Lao Wu patted his chest, and ran to the destroyed forest alone. The rest of the people sat or stood resting against the trunk of the tree, and then took out beef jerky and compressed biscuits from their bags and ate them.
Chu Ye leaned alone behind a thick tree, took out a piece of cold raw meat and blood bag from his bag, he ate very carefully, he didn't dare to make too much noise, and looked around from time to time, for fear that someone would suddenly appear.
"Why is that kid hiding when he eats something? I'll take a look. Cheng Youmin said in a rough voice.
Then he heard footsteps approaching, Chu Ye panicked in his heart, and hurriedly put half of the food in his bag, at this moment, Lan Yucheng suddenly said: "Forget it, he just did such a thing by the lake, it is normal for him to be prepared." ”
Cheng Youmin walked back again, but said: "Mr. Lan, I always feel that this kid is weird, and he happens to know that Jie Shao, there must be a lot of things to hide from us, so there is no need to be polite to him." ”
He deliberately raised the volume very high, nothing more than to warn Chu Ye.
This Cheng Youmin is very inconspicuous all the way and rarely speaks, but he is obviously very trusted by Lan Yucheng, when Lan Yucheng fainted and the ghost three insisted on moving forward, and Teng Lao Wu blocked him, Cheng Youmin has always stood firmly on the side of the ghost three, the black cat can't even Xiao Jing get close, but it can be held by Cheng Youmin safely.
Later, Luo Huzi rebelled, and Teng Lao Wu, who was closest to the knife at that time, did not react.
This Cheng Youmin was afraid that he already knew about Luo Huzi's problem, Chu Ye recalled the scene at that time, when Ghost San went to help Hu Lao, he patted Cheng Youmin on the shoulder three times, presumably telling him to keep an eye on Luo Huzi.
With Luo Huzi's skills, he can only have a chance to start after Ghost San and Hu Lao leave.
Now that Cheng Youmin has begun to target himself, this is a little uncomfortable. Chu Ye took out the uneaten raw meat again and sighed bitterly.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Teng Lao Wu had already returned, poured two mouthfuls of water and said, "Mr. Lan, the general route has been found, fortunately, the smell on the snake is strong enough, and it has not completely dissipated yet." ”
"In that case, let's get out of here." Lan Yucheng patted the food scraps on his hands, got up and said.
Chu Ye also walked out from behind the tree and followed behind Hu Lao again, and Cheng Youmin would turn his head to look at him a few times from time to time. It was certain that he would keep an eye on Chu Ye all the way back.
This made Chu Ye smile bitterly, and he didn't bother to pay attention to him, as long as he didn't threaten his life, he liked to stare at what he wanted, and Chu Ye's purpose at the moment was to find Ajie and find out what happened to him thoroughly.
