Chapter 35: Interrogation
readx;
Five days had passed since the settlement meeting, and after Ding Yao was witnessed at the entrance of the settlement to murder a member of the missing former hunting team, he fled without a trace, and no one knew where he had gone. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past five days, Ugush's mood was tense at first, and it can even be said that he was a little nervous, and when he was in the grotto, any wind and grass would make his whole body tense and put on a very worried appearance.
This tension comes from the fear of Ding Yao.
Cannibalism must not be discovered by others, so he made a decision to get rid of Ding Yao, the biggest hidden danger, as long as Ding Yao disappears, it will be much easier to make a child like Xiaoshun disappear.
With this in mind, he quietly went to the General's Cave after Lao Tie appeared, found the leader of the settlement, that is, Little, and conspired.
After several months of life in the quicksands, Ugush found that his ability to analyze people's hearts had greatly improved, and after watching the conversation between Little and Hualan about Lao Tie that day, he saw something strange, and at the same time he was extremely sure in his heart that Little, the ostensible hero, definitely had something to do with the disappearance of those members of the hunting team.
During the conversation, for the first time, the Ugush realized that his language art could be said so tactfully without detracting from the threat in it.
The Ugush didn't care about Little's role in the disappearance of the hunters, he only understood that it was always more straightforward to negotiate with the bad guys than the good guys, and that most of them would be able to shake hands and reach an agreement as long as they grabbed the resources they needed.
The appearance of Lao Tie has aroused the attention of the members of the settlement to the disappearance, and if Litt does not want to be discovered, then he needs a story to cover up, and the Ugush can provide him with such a story. So after half an hour of deliberation, there was a settlement meeting on the second day. At the meeting, Ugush racked his brains to act, even if he added the words of Xiaoshun out of context, he still won no more than half of the trust in the settlement, but it didn't take long for Ding Yao to kill the missing members at the entrance of the settlement, which completely confirmed his crime.
It was precisely this seemingly coincidental event that challenged the Ugush's vigilance once again.
Although he felt that he was lucky, after all, even in such a cruel world, he was still able to survive tenaciously, which was definitely evidence that the boat god protected him, but he still couldn't believe the coincidence of Ding Yao's murder, even if he was the one who framed Ding Yao in the first place.
But if this matter is not a coincidence, it is from the arrangement of some people, and after thinking about it, the only possibility is the informed Little.
He didn't know how Litt did it, but being able to arrange this coincidence proved that Litt was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. Making a living with such a person is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger!
After all, he Ugush didn't want to be the next to go missing!
But five days have passed, not only has there been no news of Ding, but Little's side is also very calm, and the life of the quicksand spit is as normal as ever.
Xiao Shun's side, Ugush has been to it twice, the woman named Hua Lan has a lot of bad feelings towards him, I think it was because he took Xiao Shun away without prior notice at the meeting, and Xiao Shun's body has not improved, although his face looks a lot ruddy, but Hua Lan said that he is still in poor health and needs to stay in the Lotus Cave for recuperation.
For Hua Lan's bad feelings, Ugush knew it, but he didn't care, he just cared about Xiaoshun's condition. It's a pity that Xiaoshun is only weak, if something goes wrong with his body, Ugushi is more at ease.
There has been no movement for five days, and Ding Yao, who is convicted of the crime, must not be able to come back, and Xiaoshun's frail and sickly child does not need to worry for the time being, so now only Little's side needs to pay attention.
The danger of conspiring with the tiger can only be found to use chips to increase insurance, and the bargaining chips to balance Lite are the truth of the disappearance.
The Ughush did not intend to endanger Litt with the truth, believing that he would only be hostile and the next to disappear.
What he has to do is use this chip to make himself a confidant of Little!
As long as you join the stream and become the tiger's ghosts, and participate in the ulterior things together, your life in the quicksand spit will be guaranteed from now on, and maybe even get better and better.
With this in mind, he began to pay attention to Little's words and deeds, and he would consciously avoid things that might touch the truth, but tried his best to echo Little's arrangements for the entire settlement with his actions, and expressed his thoughts to him in such a tactful way.
Since Little was able to understand his euphemism in that conversation, it is very simple to understand his euphemism!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but exhale lightly while lying on the straw mat.
The sky outside was still extremely sunny, and it was unthinkable to take a lazy move in the grotto before coming to the quicksand spit to cool off in the grotto. After struggling for survival for so long, the Ugush finally found comfort, and for this comfort, he could do anything!
He closed his eyes, a sinister smile on his lips.
"No one wants me to go back to my old life...... Don't think about anyone!"
"Really?"
He was supposed to be alone in the grotto, and suddenly a reply floated from the grotto, and in an instant, he woke up from the straw mat, broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the grotto.
The voice he spoke was all too familiar to him in his nightmares!
"Where are you going?" a figure suddenly flashed, standing right at the mouth of the grotto with a giant axe, blocking the Ugush's escape route. "Didn't expect to see ...... A lifesaver?"
Ugush's eyes widened in horror as he looked at the man in front of him hidden in the shadow of his hood.
"Ding...... Fourth...... Ding Yao!"
After disappearing for five days, Ugush originally thought that Ding Yao would never appear again, but he didn't expect that this young man who kept appearing in the nightmare would actually stand in front of him in broad daylight!
Ding Yao's cold voice carried a hint of hidden anger, and the gaze shot from under the hood was extremely terrifying: "No...... Ding Demon?"
"No, don't come here!"
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the young man in front of him, Ugush's body began to tremble slightly. Dan Ding Yao didn't pay attention to his warning at all, dragging the giant axe, and slowly moving forward on his toes, forcing him to retreat towards the grotto.
"Why, are you scared, why don't you call someone to arrest me?"
The thought of exclamation, which had just arisen, immediately stirred his throat, frightened, but resisted the urge to cry for help.
As soon as the thought came to him, he knew that he couldn't shout, because if he made the act of shouting, this young man would definitely kill him on the spot!
Between insecure rescue and lingering, he chose the latter.
"Don't blame me!" Ugush knelt on the ground, his forehead constantly slamming on the tip of Ding Yao's toes: "The person who wants to harm you is Little, it's all his idea!"
Ding Yao's eyes flickered slightly, revealing an undeniable look, and after suppressing the faint redness in his eyes, he asked, "Why did he harm me?"
Ugush immediately spoke: "It's because of those missing members of the hunting team, he is the black hand behind it!"
"Litt is the culprit?" these words made Ding Yao frown: "What evidence do you have?"
In order to survive, the Ugush told everything he knew mixed with lies: "Lit, he faked the illusion that the members of the hunting party had disappeared, and was actually experimenting on them, because he escaped from an experimental subject, he wanted to find a scapegoat, so he found you, after all, your strength is too strong, and there is a threat to his position in the settlement......"
"What experiment?" Ding Yao coldly interrupted Ugush's words.
"Experiment...... I, I don't know what the experiment ......"
Ding Yao's eyes flashed red, and his right hand suddenly lifted the giant axe.
"I really don't know, I'm afraid he'll kill me if I know too much, so I've only been helping out on the periphery...... But I, I know where he did his experiments!"
The panicked Ugush said such a thing, causing the giant axe that Ding Yao had lifted to stop in mid-air.
"Where?"
"It's a cemetery to the south! I heard from Little before, and brought a member of the settlement there, and then that person disappeared!"
Ding Yao's gaze swirled over the Ugush for a long time, and finally put the giant axe down.
"What about you, why did you frame me?"
Ugush was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly cried: "It's Lit, he threatens ......"
"Tell the truth!"
The chill in his words made Ugush shiver, but he couldn't continue in horror.
If you admit the cannibalism at this time, your life will definitely not be guaranteed!
"Is Big Brother Wu here?"
It was at this time that other people's voices came from outside the grotto, but it was a member of the settlement, walking towards the grotto, ready to look around.
A faint cold snort floated by, and Ding Yao's figure disappeared in an instant, obviously not wanting to be discovered by others.
Ugush looked at the man who looked at the probe at the entrance of the cave, and his heart was overjoyed, he didn't think that a man who was usually just hypocritical and polite would save his life at this time!
He hurriedly got up from the ground, hugged the man's shoulder with a look of surprise, and pulled him towards the outside of the cave.
"Lao Xing, you came just in time, let's go outside together!"
The man was stunned by the warm attitude of the Ugush, but he did not resist, and walked with him with a smile towards the crowded place. Judging from Ding Yao's actions, as long as he goes to a crowded place, his safety will be guaranteed.
Half an hour later, the man named Lao Xing was able to leave. This person just came to find someone to talk nonsense, but he didn't expect that today's Ugush was too enthusiastic, and kept pulling him to chat, and finally he couldn't stand it anymore so he made an excuse, and turned around and left regardless of Ugush's retention.
Lao Xing's departure left Wu Gushi alone to move with the other groups of people in the settlement, and Ding Yao's appearance had made him dare not return to his grotto.
After a long time, his eyes finally turned to the direction of the central lake, stared at the rock that looked like a general, gritted his teeth, and walked over vigilantly.
......
"Lit, is it really him?" Hua Lan muttered to himself in the Lotus Cave.
In the shadows of the corner, Ding Yao looked at the woman quietly.
For five days, he had been hiding in Hua Lan's bedroom to recuperate from his injuries, and it was not until today that he was almost healed, and he had a scene of confronting the Ugush.
"What do you think?"
Ding Yao pondered for a while and said, "Are you really sure that those brute beasts are not the dead clan?"
"That's right!" Hua Lan nodded: "According to your description, the characteristics of those brute beasts you encountered are exactly the same as those of the dead Lao Tie, and after my inspection, Lao Tie is definitely not a dead race, but another brute race, a race with parasitic instincts!"
"Parasitic ......"
After a moment of silence, Ding Yao stepped out of the shadows.
"I have a plan ......"
