Chapter 63: Darkness Chen Cang
The blood-red face was exactly the same as my previous one, but I felt that it was not an oil paint applied to my face, but a very thin mask.
After untying the rope, he pulled me up from the chair, but my legs had been strangled by the rope for so long that I couldn't stand up at all, and my legs were so weak that I almost didn't fall.
Luckily, he grabbed my arm in time to get me to my feet, and half-leaned back on the table to get used to it, while he tied my hands with a noose from behind.
I leaned against the table for a few minutes before the numbness in my legs faded away, and he pulled me out of the room into the darkness outside.
Looking at the sky, it should be about nine o'clock in the evening, and we came out of the hut and came to a courtyard.
This courtyard is very large, and there are many green garbage cans piled up around it, it seems that this place used to be a small garbage station, and there are a few small trees around the garbage cans, which are blown by the night wind, and they swing from side to side.
Following the man, I kept an eye on my surroundings while planning in my mind.
Under the flashlight, we came to the door of the garbage station, where a black van was parked, and I noticed that the license plate was not local.
After getting into the car, the man tied the rope to the saddle, twisted the key, started the car, and the front light shone on the door, allowing me to see a few blood marks on the door.
After leaving here, the car walked along a rough mountain road, and after a while, I heard a noise in the distance, and the man glanced at the place where the sound had come from, then cursed, stepped on the accelerator and continued to drive forward.
In the car, he received another text message, and through the rearview mirror I saw that he had taken a few glances and put the phone back in its original position.
He seemed to be driving the car according to the instructions on the text message, and every time he parked, a text message came.
I looked in the rearview mirror a few times and saw that the road around me was so smooth that I couldn't even find a tire print on the car.
I wonder where the person who was secretly pointing him out, and why did he let him go like this, is this person stalling for time?
Guessing so, the car also walked for half an hour, and we finally found a place to meet.
It was a road, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, and it was so dark that it would be hard for us to spot if another person had set up an ambush here.
Looking forward from here, you can see a large river, which is also a good place to dump corpses, which is not easy to be found, and secondly, it will drift down the river to the sea.
This possibility made me pay attention, and I looked through the car window into the darkness around me, paying careful attention to every suspicious place around me, and the route that would help me escape.
Maybe that's a delusion, but I don't want to let go of such a bold guess.
The car stopped in front of a street sign, and the man shone his headlights at Baizhou in front of him, and he really came alone, but a motorcycle was parked behind him, and the lights were off.
Baizhou was now dressed in light gray clothes, which was different from the previous few times we met, and he seemed to be dressed very unusually.
Under the headlights, I could clearly see the light gray dress, with a long hem and a few strange folds on the collar, which looked like a pattern.
And when you look along these patterns, there is another color on the gray clothes, but this color is very blurry, and in the interweaving of darkness and light, it becomes like a layer of fog.
As he approached, the man looked back at me and, without saying a word, took out a black bag from the front drawer and covered my head.
Although my vision was blocked by the darkness, I did not rush to resist, but obediently followed him out of the car, and I heard the voice of Baizhou.
"The drawings are here, you can put him away!"
The man sneered, and suddenly put a sharp knife against my neck, "Don't think you can fool me so easily, open the envelope, take the drawings out of it, put them under the headlights, and let me have a look." ”
"This brother, we just want to save people, you have to talk and count!"
Listening to Baizhou's voice, I could vaguely feel that he was approaching us, but the distance was small, so that person should not be aware of it.
After that, I heard another commotion, it was supposed that Baizhou had opened the drawing, and at this time, I felt the man's hand slowly loosen.
He seemed to be carefully identifying the drawing, but suddenly he seemed to have discovered something, and scolded, "This picture is fake, I see that you don't want this kid's life, dare to use the fake picture to fool me!" ”
When the words fell, I felt that the knife was stretched out, but after all, I still had some considerations, and I wanted to have a fight with Baizhou again, but when he hesitated, I heard a snort! It was as if a gust of wind was blowing past me.
Then the knife slipped off my neck, and as I scrambled to drag the bag off my head, I saw the lights of the motorcycle in the distance.
The light was so bright that I couldn't open my eyes, and when I looked sideways at the man, I saw that he had passed out, but strangely I only saw a few drops of blood on his neck and wrists, but I didn't see any wounds on his skin, as if someone else's blood had been splashed on him.
Looking along the headlights, Baizhou stood in front of me, looked me up and down, and suddenly asked, "What do you mean by those words on the phone?" ”
I didn't understand it when he asked, but after thinking about it, I immediately became alert, "Don't talk about this yet, this person in the car just now has been in contact with another person, and there may be other people ambushed here." ”
"And one more?!" Baizhou frowned, immediately turned around and looked around a few times, and then suddenly rushed out like a gust of wind.
His speed was so fast that I could only see an afterimage, and then I saw a wave of Baizhou's sleeve, and a puff of silvery-white smoke spread out all around.
Shrouded in smoke, I saw several birds flapping their wings and flying out, but they had not only flown far away, but they all fell without warning.
"There's no one else here!" Before the smoke, Baizhou turned around and walked over, looking calm, but I was speechless by the scene just now.
Recalling what I saw just now, I subconsciously glanced at his clothes a few times, and it felt very ordinary, but just now, the clothes seemed to be ......
"What's wrong!?" Seeing that I was stunned when I looked at him, Baizhou asked again.
I didn't remember to answer, I shook my head, and shook off my thoughts, although he said this, but I was still not very worried about the things around me, so I carefully shone the flashlight again.
This section of the road is not wide, but it is relatively remote, and I only need to look carefully for it, and it is easy to see the whole picture.
But my worries are still unnecessary, there is no one else here at all.
When I came back, I found that Baizhou had taken off this person's mask, but to our surprise, this person turned out to be Xiao Tao, the apprentice of Li Sansi.
But Baizhou shook his head after looking at it a few times, took out a medicine bottle from his body, and found some white powder in the palm of his hand, crushed it and applied it evenly on the person's face.
The powder was like a cleansing water, emitting a faint fragrance, and where Baizhou applied it, pieces of thin things were foiled by him.
After all the places on his face were frustrated, the true face of this person was finally revealed.
It was a very thin face, with a thumb-sized tattoo on the bottom of the left side of the face, and the tattoo looked familiar to me, because it was a rattan script, which was somewhat similar to the ones found in the tomb.
Baizhou and I glanced at each other, "It seems that Xiao Tao was pretended by this person before, so it's no wonder he doesn't know our identity!" ”
With that, I looked through his phone again, and sure enough, I found an unfamiliar number on it, but the text messages had been cleared by him.
Although there was no text message, I counted the time, found the latest call history from the address book, and filtered out Baizhou's phone number, and finally determined a call at 6:35.
But looking at that number, I didn't rush to call it, maybe the other person had already left, and now I can only call the snake.
In addition to the phone, we found some face masks in the man's backpack, as well as several bottles of powder and ointment, and a jar of gray-white bone scale powder.
These should be the things he used to deal with Li Sansi, but after Baizhou came over and looked at it a few times, his face was cloudy, I asked what was wrong, he only shook his head and muttered, "What Prophet He said is really good, they are ready to act!" ”
Baizhou didn't want to explain to me more, so he told me to pack my things and we went back as soon as possible.
I agreed, and carried the man into the car with him, while Baizhou himself drove his motorcycle.
Before leaving, I asked him what about the others, and he thought for a moment before saying, "I'm looking for the real drawings, where the hell are you hiding?" ”
I didn't answer, I closed the window, started the car, and drove straight ahead, and on the way, whenever I looked back at the back seat, I could always feel a cold gaze staring at me.
I don't know when this feeling started, maybe from the time I started the car, maybe from the first time I turned back, I can't say clearly.
Under the headlights, the road on both sides was constantly receding, I looked at the black shadows flying around me from time to time, the feeling of being watched became more and more intense, and just as I was about to turn back, I heard a strange scream, and a figure pounced from the back seat.
I yelled in my heart that it was not good, first stabilize the steering wheel to prevent the car from driving around, and immediately let go of my hand to keep the car on a forward trajectory.
The man's strength was so great that I was pulled out of my seat by him, and he put his arm around my neck, and a feeling of suffocation hit me.
I reluctantly settled down, and immediately pushed him back hard, trying to push him back into the back seat of the car, but the space in the car was not large, so I didn't move smoothly, and the car was still in the process of driving, if there was a little bit of movement, it was likely to directly make the car fall off the road, resulting in the car crashing and dying!
