Chapter 53: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
After an afternoon of separation, Li Xin has been wandering in the house, the poet is weak in the end, and after losing his backbone all of a sudden, several people suddenly lost their minds, especially the three girls, first crying, and then despair. They complained that a few people were implicated because of Wang Ling's unruly behavior, and there had begun to be a split within this group, after all, people have some of their own little Jiujiu when they decide their fate.
With a "clang", the door was smashed, and the two of them rushed in, and the people in the room suddenly stood up like frightened birds. Lao Pi didn't know what kind of quarrel they had experienced before, but when he saw that everyone's parts were fine, he grabbed Li Xin's arm and said, "Hurry up and follow us!" ”
Li Xin naturally knew what he was going to do, and the poet was also a group, but the remaining three Gu Haili, Yan Yan and Ye Chun began to hesitate and refused to leave in the room. Lao Pi was also a little annoyed when he saw this, and lost his temper and said: "Ouch, aunts and grandmothers, what are you still doing there, this is a business that adds blood to the tip of the knife, and it will be too late if you don't leave!" ”
Gu Haili held back a flushed face and said, "You, where are you going to take us?" ”
"I don't know, let's get out of here first." Wang Ling didn't have time to explain, so he was about to step forward and pull it, but Gu Haili was unmoved, but instead broke free and said: "It was a few of you who caused trouble that affected everyone, and we didn't make any mistakes, why did we run away with you, what identity did we become when we left?" ”
The original composition of these educated youths is not very good, and those three don't look like ordinary children, maybe they were all beautiful girls before, how inexplicably they became deserters! Moreover, listening to what Lao Xing and them meant in the afternoon, Wang Ling had killed people, and he was obviously innocent, so why should he mix with these murderers?
Therefore, Gu Haili plucked up the courage to shout to Li Xin: "Jingjing, don't be stupid, they are not good people!" We must stand up and resolutely expose these scum, and we must draw a clear line with them, you must come back quickly, and you can't be carried away by feelings! ”
"There's something wrong!" Lao Pi really lost his temper, he patted the gun on his shoulder and said, "Hai Li, I can't explain so much to you now, I'll tell you that we are here to pick you up tonight at the risk of losing our lives." After tonight, we don't know who will survive tomorrow, but please believe your comrades and comrades-in-arms, we have never done anything unreasonable. ”
"Yes," Li Xin also persuaded: "Don't hesitate, don't you know who they are?" It's really dangerous to stay here, I can vouch for you, I will find a way to send you back to the mainland when you leave this island, you say, Wang Ling? ”
"This is nature," Wang Ling also said, "Several, now Zheng Jiuwu is waiting for us, this is the last chance." ”
"Then I'......" Yan Yan, who was a little bold, slowly moved two steps forward, and when she was about to get closer, Gu Haili pulled her back again, with an attitude of swearing to resist to the end. Don't forget that your parents are still suffering, do you want them to bear a little more blame! ”
At this time, Lao Pi glanced outside the house, several fishing boats were already moving back, and people began to gather on the beach, he looked back, patted his thigh and said: "His mother's fourth brother, the leper torch has fallen, and the people below must have found it, how did we forget this stubble!" ”
"Walk or not!" Wang Ling's tone was already an ultimatum, he knew that if these women stayed, the result was likely to be a disaster, and if they really left, it would really hurt them. Still unmoved, he decisively unloaded the gun on his body and hit Gu Haili's skull and said, "I can't help you now!" ”
Li Xin screamed: "Wang Ling, you are crazy, what are you going to do!" Saying that, she was about to grab the barrel of the gun, but the old skin tore it open for him and said: "Instead of letting them die in the hands of Lao Xing in an unknown way, it is better to simply die in the hands of the brothers, even if they become ghosts in the future, there will be a revenge master!" ”
"What are you going to do...... that Gu Haili finally couldn't bear the pressure and collapsed, holding her head and squatting down and crying, the two of them each stepped forward to grab a girl, and the rest was handed over to Li Xin, and everyone left the educated youth hut. As soon as he went out, he saw that the torches under the mountain had already moved towards the mountain, and Ye Chun, who was in the hands of the old skin, pushed towards the poet and said: "Now you should look like a man," he turned around and said to Wang Ling: "You take them to hide first, I will go to lead away this wave of people, and you will get on the boat first while it is dark." ”
"What about you?"
"Leave me alone," Lao Pi pointed to the bottom of the mountain and said: "No matter how much ink we can't go, you will go to the Black Water Cliff and wait for Lao Tzu, if Lao Tzu jumps down and doesn't die, we will still be brothers, if Lao Tzu is glorious, so we brothers and sisters can have a hope." You've got to run before their boat catches you, it's the fuse and the wire, and I hope the hell you'll catch it. ”
Lao Pi didn't give Wang Ling a chance to think about it at all, so he picked up the torch on the ground and turned his head and ran, seeing that the direction he was running was the sentry pavilion, which was the commanding height of Xuanwu Island. I know how high the Black Water Cliff is, Lao Pi doesn't have the skills of Zheng Jiuwu, and besides, it is dark at night, and the possibility that he can find the rope is very small.
Looking at the figure waving the torch in his hand while running, Wang Ling's eyes moistened for the first time, and at this moment, the fearless spirit shown by Lao Pi made everyone's hearts shocked. Wang Ling turned his head and said with a little choked up: "Comrades, our freedom was bought by Lao Pi in exchange for his life, please don't mess up in the future, you must listen to my command, otherwise you will be too sorry for him!" ”
Lao Pi made such a fuss, and the militiamen below naturally saw it clearly, Ulala's torches immediately sped up, Wang Ling took other cats in a hidden place, and only watched those people rush into the Zhiqing Point, and after a while, Lao Xing's scolding came. Sure enough, they must have thought that the educated youths had gone to the forbidden area, because the forbidden area was something that the locals could not go, and the logic of this escape direction was quite reasonable.
Therefore, after climbing up to the sentry, Lao Pi not only did not leave, but fired a shot at the torches, and immediately all the troops were attracted to it, and began to retreat with the men in the night of the royal tomb. By the time he retreated to the beach, the torches had already crossed the forbidden area, and it was up to him whether Lao Pi lived or died!
The wharf was also empty at this time, Wang Ling took the girls and the poet to board the iron-hulled boat, it was Lao Xing who drove this boat to pick them up to sea in Qinzhou, and now it is this boat that is about to take them away, which seems to be a joke played by fate on them. It was also thanks to Lao Xing who forced their men to get on the ship, so Wang Ling learned a little bit, connected the fuses and wires, and after trying a few times, the engine of the ship finally worked "suddenly".
"Don't turn on the searchlights!" Wang Ling reminded the poet while holding the rudder: "We walk close to the coast, they will not be so quick to find out." ”
"There are a lot of reefs around here...... "And where can we get on this ship to replenish it, I see that there is only an empty oil drum here, can we go far?" "At that time, there was a shortage of supplies, especially fuel, and mechanically powered ships like this had a fixed quota for each ship every year, and when they ran out, they had to take a break, and in order to prevent overuse of fuel, if they didn't go far away, they usually only had a quarter of the fuel in the tank.
"So we don't need this boat," Wang Ling said as he stared at the sea through the faint starlight: "Lao Zheng has prepared a boat, and it may be a little hard along the way, so everyone takes care of each other." "The work he has to do now is much easier than that of Lao Pi, although sailing without light at night is also full of challenges, and what is Lao Pi doing at this time?
Lao Pi's strategy is obvious, that is, to disturb and attract, the end of the mountain is not the familiar territory of Lao Xing's gang, the dense tropical jungle gives Lao Pi a chance to play, from time to time to make a little movement, anyway, where the road is difficult to walk, where to drill, the body of the flesh and skin began to hang the color after a short time.
Rushing to a stream, Lao Pi took two sips of water and drank it, and the torches were no longer visible, and every now he would shoot at the sky and then said to himself with a disdainful face: "At this level, you dare to play lurking?" Suddenly, only to hear a "whoosh", a tree trunk on the top of the old skin's head fell down, he touched the head case that instantly bulged up and said: "Catch up so soon, it seems that the master is going to flash early." ”
In the cave below the Black Water Cliff, Wang Ling's iron-hulled boat drove directly into it, and they tied the sailboat with ropes and tried to drag it from the shore with full power. The rolling logs that were originally stored at the bottom of the ship had already rotted after so many years, and they didn't play a big role, and the machine made an ugly roar again and again, watching the rope bounce back every time it was straightened, Wang Ling's heart didn't mention how nervous he was, he wanted to blast the accelerator until it exploded......
"At 2:15," looking at Wang Ling's sweaty and trembling hands, Li Xin said: "At that time, the tide will rise, use the buoyancy of the tide, and add a little more strength, maybe we can rush out, don't ...... now."
"What time is it?" He interrupted Li Xin's reminder, "Isn't it time for us to go out and pick up the old skin?" ”
