"It's getting late, it's time to pack your bags and get ready for the night, and unload the mules first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Ziyang looked up at the sky, the sunset had already set on the top of the mountain, and night was about to fall.

After being reminded by Zi Yang, everyone realized that this toss had reached the evening.

Lao Wang said: "Oh, don't you say that I almost forgot, I haven't eaten dinner yet, no wonder my stomach is rumbling." ”

Zi Yang glanced at him: "Don't be in a hurry to eat first, let's put things in order - I don't know what the situation is now, the house can't live for the time being, so we'll set up a tent in the yard." The rest of the equipment was kept in the house for the time being, and the mules were tethered to the wall - so that we could know if any brutes broke in. ”

Ziyang arranged the work, and everyone began to hurriedly unload their luggage and set up tents.

Ziyang and Lao Wang moved the diving equipment to the house, Brother Xiao and Su Rui set up tents, and Xiao Hei and Xiao Li also helped unload their luggage. The originally quiet and empty courtyard suddenly became lively.

Fortunately, this courtyard is relatively large, with three tents and a few mules, and there is still a lot of space around.

"Su Rui, do you have any self-defense weapons or anything like that in your luggage? The security check on the plane was so strict that my nail clippers were confiscated. Lao Wang muttered as he sorted his luggage.

"It's because you look too much like a bad guy, right? How can someone bring a whip from Xiao Hei? Ziyang couldn't help but tease him.

"Xiao Hei's stuff was checked in with my cosmetics in my suitcase, maybe the security check didn't recognize it, right?" Xiaoli opened her suitcase, there were all kinds of cosmetics in it, many Ziyang couldn't name them, Xiaoli picked up everything and put it next to her, and there was a stack of masks and a parasol at the bottom of the box!

"Sister Rui, ask me what you need! I brought everything with me this time. Xiaoli said to Su Rui with a smile on her face.

"It's not that simple, is it? You've moved the whole cosmetics store here, right? With so many things, are you planning to live here? Zi Yang couldn't help but complain, Xiaoli has a lot of personal belongings, and she used up a whole mule just to her luggage!

"Women's things, you know a fart!" Xiaoli replied to him unceremoniously.

Su Rui couldn't help but smile, took out a trolley case from his luggage, pulled out a cardboard box from the mezzanine inside, and poured out a few multi-purpose Swiss Army knives.

"This thing is a little reluctant to use for self-defense, but there are knives, saws, scissors and so on, and the functions are quite complete." Su Rui gave Lao Wang and Brother Xiao a saber, and he and Ziyang also took one.

Lao Wang couldn't put it down with the heavy Swiss Army knife in his hand, "Good thing, gave it to me?" ”

"I've already put it in my account, and I'll deduct it from your salary when the time comes." Su Rui said with a grin.

"That's right, it's hundreds, how can it be so cheap for you!" Zi Yang was also beside him to help, and gave Su Rui a look by the way. opened his mouth and said to Lao Wang:

"You guys continue to pack up your things here, and I'll go out with Su Rui to check the situation around again. Let's see if we can find something to eat. ”

Lao Wang nodded: "Okay, leave it to me here - you bring Xiao Hei with you." ”

After the scene just now, everyone knew in their hearts that this village was not safe.

Zi Yang and Su Rui walked out of the courtyard gate, and Xiao Hei also followed.

After walking out of the door for more than ten meters, seeing that there was no one behind, Ziyang lowered his body and said to Su Rui: "Let's go to the waterhole to see the situation." Su Rui nodded, and the group of three slowly walked towards the waterhole.

Because the climate in the village is humid and the temperature is suitable, it is very suitable for plant growth, and there are all kinds of unknown weeds and vines everywhere, because no one takes care of them, they spread wantonly, and even those bluestone paths are almost submerged.

Walking to a few dozen meters of the edge of the pool, I saw that weeds more than one meter high were growing around the pool.

"Be careful, you follow me." Ziyang walked in the front, bowing his head and carefully identifying the bluestone road under his feet. Beat the surroundings with the wooden stick in his hand to ward off snakes and insects that may be hiding in the grass.

Su Rui and Xiao Hei walked a few meters behind him.

Ziyang walked more than a dozen steps among the weeds, and faintly felt a breeze on the water surface, blowing the lush weeds to sway, Ziyang stroked the grass like waves with one hand, remembering the time when he was a child and worked in the wheat field with adults.

After taking a few more steps, Zi Yang's heart suddenly felt a strangeness, and his footsteps stopped. Turned his head to look at Su Rui and Xiao Hei.

"What's wrong?" Su Rui also stopped.

"I can't say either, I just think something is wrong. Maybe it's an illusion. Zi Yang said hesitantly.

At this moment, Su Rui looked behind Zi Yang and suddenly opened his mouth and exclaimed, "Be careful!" ”

Almost at the same time, Zi Yang felt something rush from behind him, and before he could turn around, his neck suddenly tightened, as if he was strangled by something.

Zi Yang's heart was shocked, and he subconsciously slapped his elbow to his back. With a bang, Ziyang seemed to hit the hard steel plate this time, and then felt his neck tighten, as if he was caught by an iron hoop, and he could barely breathe.

"Don't move!" A calm voice whispered in his ear, and Ziyang felt a chill on his skin, as if something sharp had been attached to his neck.

All this happened only in the light of light, and when Su Rui shouted the word "be careful", Ziyang had already been subdued.

Xiao Hei was blocked by her behind Su Rui's back, and he didn't even have time to react.

"Let him throw what he's in hand over!" The deep voice behind him said. Obviously, "he" also saw that the thirteen links in Xiao Hei's hand were very threatening, and when Su Rui and Xiao Hei hesitated, the voice said again, "If you dare to act rashly, I will kill him!" ”

Ziyang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that this voice was somewhat familiar.

"Don't be impulsive, if you have something to say, put the knife down first. We have no ill will. Su Rui said slowly to the "person", she knew that if she panicked now, it would make the situation worse, and now she had to try to calm the other party's emotions and avoid provoking him to make extreme moves.

The man's hand tightened, and Ziyang felt a stabbing pain in his neck, as if the skin had been cut by a knife.

"Throw things over! Don't make me say it a second time! Although the voice of the man behind him was not loud, it was calm and powerful, as if he was giving an order.

"Jin Guoqiang?! Is that you!? Zi Yang suddenly exclaimed, he finally remembered who the voice behind him was.

Hearing the three words "Jin Guoqiang", Su Rui's body was shocked, "Jin Guoqiang? Captain Jin, is it really you? ”

The man behind him stopped talking, his arm suddenly tightened, and Zi Yang suddenly felt that his eyes were black and his limbs were weak. This man's strength is extremely great, Zi Yang was locked by his neck from behind, and his body was unable to exert strength, and he had completely lost resistance.

Xiao Hei held the thirteen links in his hand and looked at him anxiously. The person behind Zi Yang is very experienced, except for the arm that chokes Zi Yang's neck and the hand holding the dagger is exposed, the whole person is stuck behind Zi Yang, and Xiao Hei can't find his flaws at all.

"Blackie, give him something!" Su Rui saw that Zi Yang's eyes rolled and he was about to suffocate, so he hurriedly snatched the thirteen sections from Xiao Hei's hand and threw them at Zi Yang's feet.

"We don't have weapons on us, please spare him!" Su Rui pleaded anxiously.

As soon as the arm holding Ziyang's neck loosened, Ziyang finally relieved his breath, gasping loudly, his face flushed.

The dagger in the man's hand was still attached to his neck, and he said coldly to Su Rui: "What I ask, what do you answer!" ”

Su Rui nodded hurriedly.

"How many of you are there?"

"Six people, and three more in the village."

"What are you doing here?"

"We came to explore the waterhole in Qinhan Village, and Ziyang found the coordinates here on a map."

"What map?" The voice of the man in the back seemed to be a little surprised.

"If you let me go, I'll tell you a map." Zi Yang finally caught his breath and said.

"You're not here for me?" The voice behind asked again. Zi Yang felt the arm around his neck gradually lower, and the dagger attached to his skin was also removed.

"I'm not looking for you, I found a map, and the information recorded on it may be related to the person who framed you-" Zi Yang paused and said, "Captain Jin, you let me go and we can talk well, I know you have been wronged." ”

He can now confirm that the person behind him is Jin Guoqiang, who "defected".

Jin Guoqiang pushed him hard, Zi Yang staggered forward a few steps, and Su Rui hurriedly held his arm, carefully observing the wound on his neck.

Fortunately, it was just a cut of skin, and the wound was not deep.

Zi Yang wiped his neck, saw the blood on his hand, and said angrily and fearfully: "You fuck, what a stab?" ”

Through the afterglow of the sunset, everyone saw Jin Guoqiang's "true face", to be precise, Jin Guoqiang's disguise.

This guy has a layer of mud on his face, and he can't see his facial features at all, only two black and white eyes. There are clumps of aquatic plants tied to his body, and if he doesn't identify them carefully, he really can't tell that this is a "person". If you lie on the ground, it is no different from the weeds next to you, no wonder Ziyang didn't find him when he walked up.

Jin Guoqiang silently picked up the thirteen joints under his feet and inserted them into his waist. Glancing at Su Rui, he said, "I've been following you since you entered the village, but fortunately you didn't lie just now." ”

"What about lying? You don't really want to kill me, do you? Zi Yang looked at Jin Guoqiang incredulously, he hadn't seen each other for a few months, how could Jin Guoqiang, who used to call them brothers, become so ruthless.

Jin Guoqiang didn't answer his words, and said coldly: "I can't trust anyone now, I have to make sure that you are not here to arrest me." ”

Zi Yang smiled bitterly: "You don't think that these of us are coming to arrest you with our bare hands, right?" You're underestimating yourself too much. ”

Su Rui looked at Jin Guoqiang and said, "Then can you confirm it now?" ”

Jin Guoqiang looked at Su Rui, and then at Ziyang: "I followed the road you came from in the opposite direction for half an hour, and I came back to look for you after confirming that no one was following me." ”

Zi Yang and Su Rui looked at each other, this guy had been following them for so long, and everyone didn't notice it at all, he was worthy of being a special soldier, and he really had a stunt.

Jin Guoqiang looked at Ziyang and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Ziyang, I don't want to do this either, but you should also know that my current situation is very dangerous, and I must be very careful." ”

Zi Yang waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't worry about you, it's going to be dark soon, and this is not the place to talk, let's go back to the village." ”

"No! I can't go with you. Jin Guoqiang said suddenly.

"What's wrong again?" Zi Yang wondered, "Don't you want to meet Lao Wang?" He's always worried about you! ”

"Can't let them know I'm here!" Jin Guoqiang said sharply.

Zi Yang and Su Rui glanced at each other, their eyes full of doubt.

Jin Guoqiang looked up at the Qinhan Village in the distance, the direction where Ziyang had just come, and said word by word: "One of you is very dangerous!" ”
