Chapter 21: Encirclement and Reinforcements
Turquoise is the key point of the whole thing, and it is definitely a very crucial detail, and it is definitely enough to surprise me and my wife. Because we know very well in our hearts that not many people know the secrets of turquoise, and they can count them on one hand.
I really don't want to suspect anyone around me anymore, because the people who know the secrets of turquoise are brothers who were born and died with me, and some of them have even saved my life more than once. If I doubt them again, it's like telling myself that a brother who was born and died betrayed me, and that's really hard to accept.
In fact, you don't have to think about it, everything is in front of you, and there are four people who know the secret, me, the old prostitute, San'er, and Scar. Although Madahar also went down with us, he did not know the secret of turquoise, and if anyone had passed on this secret, it would only be one of the four of us.
"Xiao Qi, do you believe me?" The old prostitute's face became ugly, and it was the first time I had seen him look so ugly.
I knew he would think I was doubting him, so I nodded and replied, "Of course I believe you."
"You don't have to doubt me, I'm sure I'm not the one who leaked the news."
"I know, I've thought of who it is." I said.
"I also think of a person, and I'm sure you think of this person too." After the old prostitute finished speaking, he wrote a knife word on the palm of my hand with his fingers.
I knew he was writing about Scar, and I thought it was this person. Except for Scar, no one else will leak this secret. San'er definitely won't, because San'er will use his life to protect this secret, and in his eyes, this secret is more important than his life, so it's not him. I can't, and while I won't use my life to protect this secret, I'm definitely not going to leak a single bit of information about it. As for the old prostitute, I really had a moment of suspicion, but this suspicion quickly disappeared, I believe that the old prostitute can even vouch for him with his life, not for anything else, just for his help to me for so long, he is a friend who can be made with his life, so I believe in him very much. As for Scar, I can only assume that this news was leaked by him, whether he was unintentional or he had a problem in his own right, it doesn't matter anymore, the important thing is that now I already know that this secret is no longer a secret because someone took advantage of it and trapped me here.
"There is no need to analyze it, no need to speculate, this matter can only be passed from him." I said to the old prostitute with certainty.
The old prostitute took a breath of cool air, her face was full of unhappiness, and she scolded: "Lao Tzu hates this kind of anti-bone boy the most, one thing in front of him and another thing behind his back, all he says is a lie full of running trains, and there is no integrity at all."
"Don't think about him anymore, after his affairs go out, there will be time to think about it, and solve our crisis here first." I continued, "If Scar and He Mancang are in the same group, then why would they do this?"
"The purpose is definitely not to kill us, if you want to kill the fucking one, there are many good times, there is no need to wait until here to do it." The old prostitute said.
I frowned, smiled wryly, and said, "It's just because I know that they don't want to kill us, so I don't know what they're going to do."
"Oh my god, could it be that I want to get the secrets of the desert from you?"
"How is that possible," I shook my head, and continued, "If they want to know the secrets of the desert, then just ask Scar, why bother asking us." And Scar must have told them about the desert, otherwise they wouldn't have fished us with turma, which is enough to prove that they already know everything in the desert, so it shouldn't be because of this. ”
"Makes sense, if it's not this, what could it be?" The old prostitute thought for a while, and then said, "Xiao Qi, could it be that you have something in your hand that they want."
I thought about it for a while in the direction that the old prostitute said, and I felt a little inexplicable, because I couldn't think of anything I wanted from the other person, and I didn't think I had something so important.
The old prostitute shook her head again and again when she saw me, and prompted: "Xiao Qi, you can narrow down the scope of your thinking, for example, what your master left for you, or what your senior brother left for you, maybe this is what they want."
"No, the master didn't leave anything for me, if he left something for the senior brother, it would be about the same. As for what the senior brother left me, that is, Faqiumen, there is nothing special. ”
"Oh my god, what are they trying to do to get you here, they want to put you in a tree and play as a monkey."
"Don't make a fuss, be serious." I said.
"It's serious that you don't know what attracts them to anything." The old prostitute continued: "I don't think I can help you with this question, only you know yourself best, and only you know what you have."
"I just can't think about it right now, and I don't have anything special." I said with annoyance.
"It's a fucking headache, I'm most annoyed by these headless things, how good it would be if the hell it was in the war years, I can see at a glance what strategy the other party is using."
"Then you use the thinking of the war years to see what the other side's strategy is." I said.
"My god, do you still need to fuck it, it's obviously Chairman Mao's strategic policy." Seeing that I was puzzled, the old prostitute continued: "If the other side is an enemy in the war, then they use the strategy of encircling and sending reinforcements, trapping us here to death, not in a hurry to annihilate us, and let us have the idea of escaping, but we can't escape."
I have really heard of this, that is, the enemy who surrounds a town uses it as bait, and then attracts enemies from other places to reinforce it, and the real purpose is to fight the reinforcing enemy and achieve the purpose of annihilating the enemy.
I thought about the current situation, and felt that the form in front of me was really like a posture of encircling the point to send reinforcements.
But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it is not right, the most basic point of encirclement and reinforcement is that reinforcements must come to play a role. But we didn't bring any reserves this time, so where did we get reinforcements? Besides, the news that we are trapped here can't get out, and even if Long Jiu knows that something happened to me, it is impossible to know that I am trapped here, and even if I want to rescue him, I can't help it.
I shook my head, just wanted the old prostitute to think about it again, and I felt that something was wrong.
After thinking about it, I realized that I seemed to have thought of the answer and understood why they trapped me here.
I suddenly felt that the seriousness of the matter was no longer the same level as before, and now it had reached a height that I dare not imagine, or even incomprehensibly understand.
