The alley was surprisingly quiet, and Quinn, who was suppressed by Tang Shuxing, was also surprisingly quiet, Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng covered one side of the alley, blocking the eyes of the locals who passed by from time to time.

There was a reason why Tang Shuxing had brought Quinn out of the hands of the CIA, not only had they lived and died together, but he also wanted to know how he had been arrested, what else he was hiding, and of course, the most important thing was what the CIA wanted him to do.

Quinn didn't speak, just signaled that he wanted to smoke, Tang Shuxing let go of him and let him light his own cigarette, and said at the same time: "I know, even if I don't ask the CIA to let you go with us, they will find a way to let you follow us, the leader of the world's largest intelligence organization, will be so simple that he chooses to trust us completely because of his cooperation with the Ministry of Paleontology?" We're not stupid, and neither are you. ”

"They gave me two choices, either follow you and spy on you, or send me back to Sharman Power." Quinn grinned, "I don't have a choice, I'm going to die if I go back, because the United States has already attacked Sharman Power, and their companies and manufacturing plants in the United States are all controlled, but before that, Sharman Power's armed forces have long been transferred abroad, and now, their main base is in Africa, which has become the base camp of Bafang, and it is not Shangdu that actually controls Africa, it is Bafang!" ”

"You didn't tell the CIA about this?" Tang Shuxing frowned and asked.

"Don't you think they don't know?" Quinn sneered, "They just pretend they don't know, and they want to save face, don't they?" They have no way to take the current Africa, after the Astaya incident, together with the surrounding countries were quickly manipulated by all sides, and it was impossible for the US military to fight a war that was meaningless to them. ”

"Don't they need resources?" Tang Shuxing shook his head, "Africa is so rich in resources. ”

"The government and the capitalists are two different things, and the government thinks about it. Is it possible to go to Africa to do business under the banner of the government? No way, now no American company dares to continue operating in Africa, which is the largest divestment operation in history. Quinn said against the wall. After a company divested, Sharman Power immediately took over. Let the company continue to operate, when I left, there were already 18 large-scale mining companies under the umbrella of Sharman Power, all of whom were locals, and the managers were all die-hard loyalists! ”

"The eight parties have monopolized most of Africa's resources......" Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Huaiyi, "They started really quickly, and their original goal was clear." Kill two birds with one stone, no, even more. ”

"There is no reaction among the major powers?" Ji Kefeng asked, "This doesn't make sense." ”

"No one wants to be caught in war. Moreover, after the outbreak of the Yellow Fog incident in Philadelphia, USA, everyone felt that it was difficult to protect themselves, and the whole country was not at all in agreement, and most of them were against getting involved in the quagmire of war, because so far. No one knows who their enemies really are. Quinn shook his head, "Although I know that it is Shangdu, the strength of the two major organizations under Shangdu, Yaojin and Bafang, is already terrifying, and some people among the big countries even think that they simply recognize the country of Shangdu." Maybe it can be eased. ”

"But wouldn't that be tantamount to betraying Southeast Asia?" Ji Kefeng was puzzled.

Quinn took a deep breath: "So what does it matter?" Western countries need to divert their attention, not only domestically but also from Shangdu, they are trying to abandon Southeast Asia altogether, leaving the Southeast Asian problem to China to deal with, and if China does not handle it well, there is also Russia, which is still some distance away from them anyway. Moreover, the United States has been secretly pressuring Russia and China to 'take care' of India and China to increase its aid to Pakistan, which will be at the forefront of the barrier, and at the same time increase its military presence in the Middle East, so as to temporarily keep Europe. ”

"One war in Astaya, another chaos in the United States, and then they easily got Southeast Asia." Tang Shuxing shook his head, "It's so terrible, Shang Du completely grasps the weakness of politicians in his hands, knowing that everyone is just for interests, interests are the first, everyone only looks at the front of them, and everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door." ”

"Alright, I've said everything I need to say." Quinn lit another cigarette, "Now are you going to let me go with you, or are you going to leave me in the Philippines?" ”

Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng for advice, and then the two nodded silently, and both said that it might be useful to take Quinn away.

……

It was seven days later that they returned to Chiang Rai Province in Thailand, and in seven days they had taken cars, boats and short-haul planes, and they had spent a lot of money to enter Thailand, and on the premise that they had informed Lin Sotu and Tian Longting in advance, because the Thai side had already imposed martial law on the border, because civil strife had broken out in neighboring Myanmar and Cambodia, and the reason for the civil unrest was that the governments of the two countries had made Shandu an illegal sect and required the followers to hand over the weapons they illegally held.

This is a risky move taken by the United States, let the two governments do this, in the final analysis, they also want to see how strong Shangdu is in Southeast Asia, but they didn't expect that things are even more terrible than they imagined - the original doomsday theory was ambiguous, but then natural disasters were frequent, the Walking Dead War broke out in Africa, and finally even the Philadelphia Yellow Fog incident occurred in the United States, which directly led to the death of millions of people on this earth.

Therefore, these things almost indirectly confirm the apocalyptic theory, so that more people do not ask what Shangdujiao is pursuing in the end, and they bury their heads in the religion like chicken blood.

Of course, it was more because of poverty and injustice that the Shantus began to distribute food and supplies to their followers, and they followed the principle of equality for all, so that more congregants worked harder. Because they thought that the Shandu Sect was so generous outside, that the people in Shandu lived a heavenly life.

They thought this way because Shangdu was completely closed, and no one knew what it was like in this underground kingdom.

Back in the bar of Ah Yue in Chiang Rai Province, it was already late at night, there were no civilians in the bar, and all the soldiers sitting there were Zheng Guoyuan's soldiers, these soldiers were uniformly dressed, and the cloth strips with the word "Zheng" written on their arms were tied to show their identity.

In Chiang Rai Province, Zheng Guoyuan controlled everything, and very cleverly closed the place, not allowing anyone to enter again, even if it was a Shandu follower, if he wanted to "make a pilgrimage", he only worshipped outside the blockade line in the direction of Shandu.

The four dragged their tired bodies into the bar. Before they could reach the bar, they collapsed to the ground, so they had to find a table and sit down, but their entry immediately made the surrounding soldiers very dissatisfied. However, there were still sharp-eyed people who recognized Gu Huaiyi, and after whispering a few words. Took the others and left.

Soon, only Tang Shuxing and others were left in the bar, and when they were looking for Ah Yue, Ah Yue popped up from behind the bar, and then got up, rubbing a thick-walled wine glass in his hand, and looked around. Then he said, "Be prepared to compensate me for my losses, as soon as you come, the soldiers are gone, and I have lost at least a few hundred dollars." ”

"Now Chiang Rai Province is settled in US dollars!?" Ji Kefeng leaned on the table and said.

Ah Yue didn't speak. Just ask, "What are you going to drink?" ”

"You said you had a treat." Tang Shuxing finally spoke, turned to look at Ah Yue, "Also, it's you who compensates for the loss, not me." You took my pair of bracelets. ”

"Nonsense! Don't frame me. Ah Yue stepped forward and pointed to the pair in Ji Kefeng's hand, "Isn't this yours?" ”

"It's yours!" As soon as Tang Shuxing finished speaking, he knew that he had been fooled again.

Ah Yue squeezed out a smile at him: "That's right, the same bracelet was said when I was in the United States." Let's have a couple, you already have a couple, and you still want me to be a pair? ”

it! This! Tang Shu couldn't speak for a long time, and his internal injuries came out.

Ah Yue put the cup on the table and asked again, "Say!" What to drink! I'm in for a treat! Hurry up, or I'll close. ”

Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng both asked for beer, only Tang Shuxing asked for a bucket of water, and it was best to take it from the river or the tap water pipe.

Ah Yue said inside, and then the beer came out of no one else, but Ah Ling.

Ah Ling changed her beastly style, with a pair of big glasses frames on the bridge of her nose, and a kind and enthusiastic smile on her face, completely looking like a student who came to work.

"Beer for two." Ah Ling put the beer in front of the two of them, looked at Tang Shuxing and said apologetically, "Your water has to wait a while, I'm sorry." ”

Ah Ling walked away quickly, Ah Yue winked at her and nodded to indicate that she was doing a good job.

After Ah Ling left, Tang Shuxing looked at the door where she disappeared and asked, "Did you get the antidote, or did you find a beast tamer?" ”

Ah Yue smiled, leaned over and leaned over Tang Shuxing's ear and said, "If you make fun of my sister again, I guarantee that you won't be able to get out of this bar!" ”

"To be honest, I don't want to come back if I go out, I don't know if I should trust you or not!" Tang Shuxing turned his head to look at her, "Who the hell are you?" What are you going to do? For whom do you die? Do you have principles? I don't know any of that! ”

Ah Yue didn't answer, at this time Ah Ling carried a bucket of water, ran quickly, put it on the table, and then bowed slightly: "Your water!" Thank you! "Then stand there and don't go.

Tang Shuxing looked at Shui, then at Ah Ling, then at Ah Yue, then at Ah Ling, and nodded: "Thank you, you can go." ”

Ah Ling didn't leave, still standing there with a smile on her face.

Tang Shuxing stared at her, and when she was about to ask, Ah Yue leaned down again and reminded, "Tip!" You're not going to be so slammed, are you? ”

"What's small?" Tang Shu pretended to be stupid, Gu Huaiyi immediately took out a banknote and handed it over, Ah Ling took it, and left happily.

"Damn, we've just escaped from the wolf's den and entered the thieves' den." Tang Shuxing put his head into the bucket and drank water like a cow and horse, and it took a long time to raise his head and take a deep breath.

"She's fine, but it's just temporarily controlled with medication." Ah Yue said, leaving the table and walking towards the back door.

Gu Huaiyi looked at Ah Yue who was leaving, and raised his head towards Tang Shuxing, Tang Shuxing sighed, and had to get up and follow Ah Yue out of the back door.

When I walked out the back door, I saw that behind the bar was a small garden, but it was full of all kinds of flowers and plants, and there were many fireflies flying around......
