Chapter XXXIII Unplanned Plans

"Do you think I won't dare to kill you, fat man?" The fat man leaned over and raised his hand to pinch Mike's chin. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mike looked at the fat man with an arrogant expression, his eyes full of certainty.

The fat man and Mike looked at each other for a few seconds, then suddenly let go of their hands and turned back into the tent. After a while, he walked out with something in his hand.

"Guess what's in there?" The fat man held something in his hand in front of Mike. Before Mike could speak, the fat man said to himself, "You think you're doing a good job of security?" Sister Lan and I took this thing out when your people were still sleeping. ”

Mike was stunned, a look of astonishment on his face.

The fat man put things away: "Okay, I don't want to waste too much saliva." If you cooperate with the work of the organization, then the fat man can also consider letting you go. Otherwise......" The fat man turned his head to look at He Tao: "Walnut, do you have any particularly awesome insects in the south, or anything particularly cool?" ”

He Tao was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what the fat man wanted to do. He picked up the grass just now and shook it in front of Mike: "After the whole body is paralyzed, throw him into the ant nest and bury him, only one head is exposed." ”

The fat man immediately took over the conversation: "Hey, I heard that there is a kind of ant in the primeval forest in the south, especially in Yunnan, which is particularly awesome, and it seems that even bones can drill into it." ”

"Leeches." He Tao said. "The leeches in the swamp are particularly poisonous. Just stand there for half an hour, and both legs will be hollowed out. ”

I could see Mike's facial muscles twitching. So he seized the opportunity to ask him, "Tell me, how much do you know about the situation in this mountain?" As long as it is valuable, I can consider letting you go. ”

Mike looked up, looked at me with slightly vacant eyes, and didn't speak. However, it can be seen from his somewhat tangled expression that he seems to be shaken.

They just looked at me for another minute or so. Of course, I can't be intimidated during this period, and I look at him like this. Until he said the next words:

"Mr. Xiao Wei, when you enter the mountain this time, you will encounter unprecedented danger. This danger is that in addition to those bugs, you will encounter that thing. The existence of that thing is also the reason why I took the soldiers into the mountains. If it weren't for his existence, I wouldn't even need your help and pay a high price to get more people into this mountain. I believe that as long as the number of people reaches a certain number, this mountain range will no longer be mysterious. ”

I noticed that there was an indescribable look in Mike's eyes when he said the word "he". But I don't know what he calls "him", only what it is. Is it the "he" of man, or the "it" of animals? Spoken Chinese is not like English, and there is a clear distinction between him and her, so I can't clearly understand what that thing is when he says it. However, based on the previous search for the dying soldier in the camp, I still vaguely guessed something. But this feeling is very ethereal and a little unclear.

If the thing inside is a person, then it's just a person, what's there to be afraid of? No matter how awesome people are, I'm afraid they can't stand up to so many of us, right? When the time comes, it will really not work, and it is estimated that one person can shoot him to death if he goes up with a brick. But what if it's not a human being? What is that? The dying soldier in the camp had said that after the fog had risen in the mountains, he had seen a faint figure. However, in my opinion, if the fog is very thick, it is actually difficult to distinguish the shadow of an object. Like monkeys and people. The monkey also looks like a human when it stands up. How the hell can you tell the difference? But if all the soldier saw was the shadow of a monkey, then why did Mike reveal that visceral sense of fear in his words?

"You've seen that thing, haven't you?" He Tao suddenly had an extra knife in his hand, and he flashed in front of Mike. The knife in his hand was directly on his neck.

Mike shook his head: "I captured that thing with a drone." It's just a vague shadow. ”

"Then why do you know so well?" The fat man asked him.

Mike glanced at the fat man, then hung his head.

We thought Mike was thinking about how to answer us. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a few minutes, I didn't see any sign that he wanted to speak. The fat man was in a hurry, pinched his chin and forcibly raised his head, glaring at him viciously: "The fat man has been out for so long, and he has never been able to force a confession." You want the fat man to use some ruthless methods. ”

Mike closed his eyes, and his face suddenly showed a look of resignedness. As soon as the fat man saw it, he raised his hand and wanted to slap him a few times. But I stopped me.

"There's something he hasn't told us." I pulled the fat man aside and whispered.

"Nonsense, can't this fat man see it?" The fat man spat out with a "phew": "This foreign devil is his mother's-you can't do this, so he won't say anything." If you are a person like this, you should give him some hardship, otherwise he will not know how powerful he is. ”

"I know that. But now that he has been disabled, then after we enter the mountain, it will be equivalent to an extra burden. Isn't this asking for trouble for yourself? ”

The fat man thought about it, and then looked at Mike: "Okay, this sentence to you, fat man, I will spare this foreign devil's life for the time being." "The fat man pushed me away as he spoke. Walk over to Mike. When he walked up to Mike, he raised his hand to his stomach and did an uppercut.

Mike didn't expect the fat man to do this to him, and Mike, who was caught off guard, snorted, and saliva immediately flowed down the corners of his mouth.

I looked at Mike's flushed face, and those eyes were about to burst. I hurried over and pretended to be a good person, and stopped the fat man who was still doing the second punch.

Damn, play a double reed, Lao Tzu still knows a little.

After pulling the fat man away, He Tao also followed.

Seeing He Tao sitting next to me smoking a cigarette silently, I asked him what was wrong. He Tao shook his head, spat out a puff of cigarette, and said it was okay. It's just that these recent things are so bad that they make me feel depressed.

I patted him on the shoulder, trying to comfort him. But when I opened my mouth, I didn't know what to say. He shut his mouth.

"Please." He Tao said suddenly.

The fat man looked over and saw that He Tao was talking to me. He closed his mouth and waited for He Tao to speak.

"If we can get out of this mountain, I'll leave this foreigner to me." He Tao said.

"What am I supposed to be, to make such a big deal?" The fat man said, and immediately patted me on the shoulder: "No problem, I promised you for him." ”

He Tao didn't answer the fat man's words, just looked at me quietly.

"Okay." I thought about it, then nodded. "But you're going to tell me what you're going to do with him."

He Tao threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it again. He said, "I haven't figured this out yet. ”

"Hey, hey, what's wrong with that. Isn't it a man? It's time to fight, it's time to kill. People like you, fat man, I haven't seen anyone hesitate. ”

He Tao glanced at the fat man, and I hurriedly said, "Hey, what are you talking about, it's none of your business." ”

The fat man said "oh" and didn't speak again. But looking at his expression, there is a feeling that he has nothing to do with himself.

"There's just so much to do with this Mike. It's not as simple as you think. The things he told you earlier may be the story of everything that has happened to you. But for me, it's still just the tip of the iceberg. When he said this, He Tao stood up and shook his legs, which were a little numb: "And I believe that Lan will not agree to kill him." ”

"Why?" I asked. "Why is he still involved with Lan?"

"You don't know much about Lan. Of course, I don't know much. But compared to you, she and I have known each other for a long time. It's just then—"

"Not me yet?" I smiled: "Damn, how does it feel like Lao Tzu re-educating his son." ”

He Tao ignored my jokes and said to himself: "Although you were in the plan at that time, you didn't participate in this matter. So you can only be considered a standby. So of course you won't know. ”

"What's the plan?" I asked.

"I can't tell you right now." He Tao quickly interrupted me in an unquestioning tone: "If you are interested in this matter, you will know when you go up to the heavenly burial platform one day and see the person above." ”

I'm a little confused. The heart said how the hell did this have to do with the person on the top of the burial platform again.

He Tao sat down again: "This matter is far more than you imagined. This could almost—or has become a catastrophe for the Outer Elements. It needs to be faced by everyone in the outer eight circles. And in this matter, in order to end it, countless people died. ”

"So my father, in order to prevent me from being implicated again, sent me out of the burglar door and let me be independent?" I said this for no reason.

He Tao was a little surprised. But he still nodded: "The matter of sending you out is unknown to everyone on the surface." But it's actually still being planned. Your father had expected a lot of people to die when that catastrophe came. He was worried that the thief would be drowned in the dust of history because of this, so he sent it away. It should be so that the thief can have a chance to make a comeback in the future. ”

I frowned: "Only one of the thieves left a seed for the future?" ”

He Tao smiled bitterly: "Of course not." At that time, each of the eight lines reached a tacit understanding. That is to secretly send out the heirs of their own leaders, so that they can grow up independently in the eight elements. If the Eight Elements can withstand that catastrophe, then the heirs sent out will let them go back. If you can't resist it—"

"Then those heirs still have to go back." I said, "Go back and continue with that plan." Because those children are also part of the plan. Right? ”

He Tao nodded: "You have done so many things with us, you must know it." All plans have to leave a way out for themselves. Make sure you don't die in the middle of the plan. And you are the back road left in the plan. ”

"What about the heirs of the other seven gates?" I asked, "Where are they now?" ”

He Tao shook his head: "This is not what I care about. Naturally, they will have someone to guide them. ”

I noticed that He Tao used the word "guide". I asked him what it meant.

"After experiencing that catastrophe, the Outer Eight Elements suffered heavy casualties. That's why you're a new force that has to be activated again. And you, because you were sent out at birth, are not very skilled in the technology of your respective fields of expertise. Some don't even know at all. For example, you don't know anything about these techniques of fighting. This requires a person to guide you step by step back to your own power. ”

"You're my guide?" I looked at him.

He Tao shook his head again: "It is impossible to reveal the identity of the guide. So I'm not. ”

I was stunned for a moment, then turned my head to look at the fat man sitting on the side smoking a cigarette: "Isn't this dead fat man?" ”

When the fat man heard me talking about him, he turned his head to look at me: "What are you doing, the fat man smoking here won't affect you too, right?" ”

He Tao shook his head.

"That's Ran." I say. "Ran is there for me every time I'm in danger, it has to be her."

"I don't know." He Tao said. "And even if you knew, that wouldn't tell you."

"Why?"

"Some of the secrets in the Eight Elements cannot be told." He Tao said, "There are still some unwritten rules. These have been tacitly settled by the people in the Eight Elements in history, and if anyone breaks the rules, the consequences will be very serious. ”

I stared at him, "This is the rule of the Eight Elements, and you are not a person in the Eight Elements-"

He Tao hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I am not a person from the Eight Elements, but several forces outside the Eight Elements have a cold relationship with the Eight Elements." Especially our family. So we have to follow those rules as well. ”

The fat man stood up and walked up to me at this time and patted me on the shoulder: "Young man, don't always think about getting the answer from others. If you want to know, why don't you find it yourself? ”

I smiled bitterly, and said in my heart, you don't tell me anything ******, how can I find it?

"By the way," I looked at the fat man, "You just said that the jade seal of the country was obtained by you and Lan?" ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment: "Huh? No, I don't. ”

"And what did you just show Mike?"

"Oh, the fat man bought a few melons when he came over. Eat one leftover on the way. That foreign devil is too arrogant, the fat man will take it out and call him when I think about it. ”
