Chapter 33: The Secret on the Bronze Gate (Part II)
Our chat was interrupted with a scream, and the three of them stood up very alertly, the light of Xiyang's flashlight swept through the darkness directly in front of us, and at the same time, several gunshots followed.
I habitually pulled Jiang Yuan behind me, the gun was already in my hand, the bullets were full, I was not worried about the person who shot it, because it was them who we had to wait for, and we had to meet sooner or later, but they suddenly opened fire, and the gunfire was not far from us, which showed that there was danger approaching around us, and fortunately, this danger was encountered by them first.
Because our flashlight is only mine, and all the others are on strike, so, I handed over the flashlight to Xiyang, among the three of us, a teenager and a fool, the only one who can be called wise and brave is only Xiyang, I let Xiyang stand among us with a flashlight, maintain the best vigilance, and Jiang Yuan and I are left and right as protectors, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
The gunfire began to intensify as we got closer and closer, flashlights flickered, footsteps followed, and several people rushed in the direction of our left, and they shot backhand in the back as they ran.
"This way." I shouted.
When those people heard my shout, they immediately locked my position, and they rushed to me in three or two steps, and they looked very thin in black equipment clothes.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
As he spoke, he pulled him behind me, and then fired two backhand shots in the direction they came, and the two men behind him fell to the ground, and the man was in a hurry, and put the muzzle of the gun to my head, and said coldly: "Who are you, why did you shoot my people." ”
When Jiang Yuan saw that I was threatened, he immediately rushed over to rescue him, don't look at his young age. This martial art is not bad, a kick hit the man's wrist, the gun crossed an arc in the air and fell to Xiyang's feet, Xiyang picked it up and checked it, and shouted: "Stop, your own people." ”
Jiang Yuan and the man in black stopped at the same time. I hurriedly dragged Jiang Yuan over, and said in my heart that if it was my own person, it would be Dongyuan's person, and let him know that Jiang Yuan was here, and it was estimated that nothing good would happen.
I blocked Jiang Yuan behind me, suggesting that he should not reveal his identity and be at ease, Jiang Yuan understood what I meant, and shrank behind me and tried not to show his face.
Xiyang came to us with a flashlight. The man in black also held a flashlight to me, and the flashlight traveled back and forth on me for a few times before it stayed on my face, and I couldn't open my eyes, let alone see the person's face.
"Guan Yue." The man's cold voice floated across from me.
"Heh, you all know me."
I blocked his flashlight with my hand, "Since you know, take the flashlight away first, don't be like sweeping." ”
Xiyang said to the man in black on the side, "Wu Yue." How did you end up here. ”
As soon as I heard this name, I said in my heart that there was still some relationship between the Guan family and the Wu family.
The young man named Wu Yue glanced at Xiyang. Then someone looked me up and down and said, "Why are you here, my father and master asked you to come?" ”
I didn't speak, but Xiyang explained on the side: "Of course not, Ah Guan and I were just passing by and happened to come in." As a result, I can't get out. ”
I just felt a flock of crows flying overhead, and I thought that this kid's ability to lie was learned from the physical education teacher, and this reason was also drunk.
I helplessly supported my forehead on the side, and Wu Yue let out an "oh", and then put away the flashlight. Turning around and shining a few times in the direction they came, after observing for a moment there was no movement, and the tense nerves immediately relaxed.
I was curious: "That Mr. Wu, can you tell me why you shot just now, and did you encounter something?" ”
Wu Yue glanced at me with a little meaning, and asked rhetorically, "Why did you kill those two people?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and said in my heart that Lao Tzu was saving you, if you don't thank me, forget it, and actually asked me in such a blunt tone, I was not happy for a while, so I simply avoided answering, but Xiyang explained next to me: "Wu Dashao, can't you see it?" The muzzles of the two men behind you are waiting for an opportunity to turn their guns at you. If it hadn't been for the shouting that disrupted their plan and shot you to take out the two of them, you would have been a dead corpse by now. ”
Wu Yue actually understood it in his heart, but he asked this deliberately, just to hear what I said, but I didn't expect that I didn't say a word, but Xiyang said a lot, no matter what, we answered his questions, Wu Yue smiled after hearing it, changed the cold iceberg shape just now, and said, "Thank you." ”
I replied with a smirk, "No thanks. ”
Xiyang suddenly stood very vigilantly in the direction where Wu Yue came just now, turned around and whispered, "You go first." ”
Wu Yue stretched out his hand and pulled out the matching gun on my waist, dodged past me and Jiang Yuan, stood in a row with Xiyang, turned back to me and said: "You take that child from that side, follow the triangular mark, stop and wait for us when you see a big bronze door, remember, you must not look at the runes on the bronze door, you know?" ”
I pulled Jiang Yuan to walk in the direction he said, and sure enough, I found a lot of triangular marks on the walls along the way, these marks were painted with carbon, I knew that this was left by Wu Yue and his party when they were visiting the tomb, and the bronze gate he said should be the entrance to the old Yunshan Necropolis Palace.
There were constant gunshots behind us, and I pulled Jiang Yuan and asked him as I walked: "Yuan'er, who is Wu Yue, do you know?" ”
Jiang Yuan was dragged by me and said as he walked: "I only know that he is from the Wu family in Suzhou, and his father has business dealings with my stepfather. ”
I saw a triangular mark on the left, and immediately pulled Jiang Yuan to the left and asked, "Did Jiang Baichuan mention to you about the Wu family in Suzhou?" ”
Jiang Yuan thought for a while and said, "No, I'm just going to check some privately." ”
I said, "What is it?" ”
Jiang Yuan paused and said: "In Suzhou, the Wu family is a well-known local family, and their family is engaged in maritime business, but I privately found out that Wu Jun, the old man of the Wu family, had been a native master for several years, and made a fortune by reselling some treasures on dirt roads. ”
I heard that Xinjiang was immediately a little alert, thought about it, and felt that this was unlikely, Jiang Yuan saw that I didn't speak, so he continued: "Wu Jun has been staying in the old mansion of the Wu family in Suzhou since he came back from Xinjiang, and has never gone out for more than ten years, and his son is Wu Yue who began to take care of the family business, but I have also checked privately, Wu Yue is a serious businessman on the surface, but he is also secretly investigating some old tombs. ”
I said, "You mean to say that this Wu Yue is likely to be like his Lao Tzu, who is good on the surface, but still does his old job in private?" ”
Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "No, as far as I know, they never take a Ming weapon under their heads, they just take away ancient books or some oracle bones and the like, anyway, they are things with words, and I also heard that the Wu family has been helping a person to investigate something in secret." ”
"Help?" I stopped, looked for the triangle on the wall, and asked, "Who do you help?" The person who can make the Wu family help must not be simple. ”
Jiang Yuan stood in place and thought for a moment, and said: "I only know that his surname is Zhang, and he is Wu Yue's master, and I don't know anything else, the Wu family is not an ordinary family, Hanhai, including you Dongyuan, no one dares to touch a single hair of the Wu family." ”
I didn't find the sign of the triangle, straightened up to catch my breath, and said in my heart: The person who can make Jiang Baichuan and Dongyuan taboo and fear at the same time must be not small. (To be continued.) )
