Chapter Ninety-Nine: Praying Mantis, Cicada, Yellow Sparrow!

Chapter 100: Praying Mantis, Cicada, Yellow Sparrow!

The reason why Li Weidong changed his plan but did not communicate with Chang Qingbo and the others was that it was impossible for him to demonstrate any tricks in front of them.

This kind of thing can't be more serious.

After all, the other party knows his details, a baby from the countryside, where did he learn these?

On the contrary, now, in front of Gui Shaoning, he can demonstrate at will, and he is not afraid of being exposed by the other party.

Because Gui Shaoning didn't know anything about him.

As for whether Gui Shaoning will say it in the end, he has to wait until he can live to the end.

And Li Weidong's so-called tricks have not yet left the category of strange people in the rivers and lakes.

Don't you see, even in the later generations, when science and technology are so developed, Master Wang and his ilk are still thriving?

Gui Shaoning kept staring at Li Weidong, as if he wanted to see something.

It wasn't until a moment later that he asked.

"Who told you to come?"

"I don't know."

Li Weidong shook the handle of his own care, flipped it lightly, and when he opened it again, the hayball had disappeared.

He clapped his hands and found a comfortable position to lean on.

and Gui Shaoning looked at each other.

At this time, Gui Shaoning was thinner and older than in the photo.

But there was still God in his eyes.

Coupled with his vulture pattern, it looks a little scary.

"You think I'll believe it?" Gui Shaoning spoke again.

In fact, when he kept throwing questions, Li Weidong's plan was half successful.

After all, if Gui Shaoning really didn't care, he wouldn't talk nonsense with him at all.

"Believe it or not, I really don't know, and I don't want to know the identity of that person.

The reason why I came in was because someone spent twenty small yellow croakers and asked me to take them out, of course they were alive.

If you can't take it out, you will be told to shut up forever, and then there will only be ten little yellow croakers.

So, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not, I just need to promise to get the little yellow croaker. ”

Li Weidong has a posture of admitting money but not people.

The question is, does Gui Shaoning want to die?

If he really wanted to die, he wouldn't have to survive until now, wouldn't it be happier to end himself?

"The guards here are so strict, how can you be confident that you can take me out?" Gui Shaoning asked.

"As the saying goes, cats have cats, dogs have dogs, and cows (ghosts) and snakes have their own ways.

The fact that I can come in, and still be in a cell with you, is the best proof of that.

You must know that in this world, there may be people who don't care about money and food, but they can't even care about their relatives.

If I want to take you out completely, it will definitely be a little troublesome, but for the sake of ten more small yellow croakers, I will definitely be attentive.

So, if you cooperate, then everyone is fine.

If I don't cooperate, then I can only go out alone. ”

Li Weidong's words also clearly told Gui Shaoning, if you still don't believe it, then I'm sorry, please keep your mouth shut forever.

Gui Shaoning didn't answer immediately, he was pondering, analyzing the strange person named Hou San in front of him.

That's right, it's a strange person.

Just by relying on that hand just now, he can definitely be called a strange person.

As for the ten small yellow croakers, or twenty, he didn't even look at them.

If the other person can really take him out, he can give the other person more.

The question is, is Hou San in front of him worth believing?

Gui Shaoning has been imprisoned for several years.

During this period, or rather, he has been dealing with people like Chang Qingbo since a long time ago, so he has a deep understanding of their style of acting.

In the same way, even for his own people, he is clear.

But from Li Weidong's body, he neither saw the shadow of the other party, nor did he have the appearance of his own person.

Hou San in front of him gave him a feeling of being a child, but faintly, he could detect the other party's self-confidence, or arrogance.

It seems that as long as he believes it, he can really take himself out.

Do you want to gamble?

Gui Shaoning knew very well that his body could not support him for too long, and there were not many options left for him.

Either die here, or choose to give in and honestly hand over the secret.

But he can't trust Chang Qingbo's gang, and he doesn't even trust his own people.

At this moment, he saw Hou Sanyi on the opposite side patting his head again.

"By the way, someone asked me to bring you a letter, but I forgot about it just now."

Li Weidong said as he reached into his clothes and grabbed two handfuls in front of Gui Shaoning.

Then the secret letter handed over to him by Chang Qingbo appeared in his hand.

Seeing the secret letter, Gui Shaoning's eyes shrank, but he was just about to get it, Li Weidong flipped his hand, and the secret letter disappeared again.

"I'm sorry, I believe it, I can't give it to you yet, I have to wait until I get out.

To be honest, I can't trust your people, what if you read this letter and collude with each other to trap me? ”

Li Weidong said it so aggressively.

In fact, even Chang Qingbo doesn't know the content of the secret letter.

It's not that he can't open it, but the content inside is all scrambled, and there is no corresponding way to read it, that is, the password, and it is difficult to crack the content in a short time.

And Chang Qingbo also knew through the captured messenger that they were going to rescue Gui Shaoning.

Even the person who sent the message did not know the password.

Li Weidong believed half of this.

What if it's a trap?

Or in the secret letter, the identity of the sender is also stated?

If there is another password or something, wouldn't he be directly exposed.

After all, right now, he is the third ghost hand.

So for the sake of safety, he just took out the secret letter and lit it up, so that the scales in Gui Shaoning's heart tilted to his side.

In this way, it is enough.

Gui Shaoning glanced at Li Weidong deeply, and after seeing Li Weidong's ghost hand performance just now, he didn't doubt how the other party brought the secret letter in.

So the authenticity of this letter is very impressive.

Although he was angry that Li Weidong did not directly hand over the letter to him, his face remained silent, and even showed a look of understanding.

At this time, outside.

Chang Qingbo and Xiang Tianming were discussing.

"Do you think he'll make it?"

Chang Qingbo stood in front of the window, staring at one of the cells in the distance.

He knew that Gui Shaoning and Li Weidong were there at this moment.

"As long as he can deliver the letter to Gui Shaoning, he has already succeeded." Xiang Tianming smiled slightly.

From the very beginning, he didn't believe that Li Weidong, who had not undergone professional training and was at most a little clever, could extract anything useful from the mouth of an old and cunning guy like Gui Shaoning.

To put it bluntly, Li Weidong is the bait used for fishing.

In his opinion, Gui Shaoning was 100% able to see through Li Weidong and knew that it was their person.

But so what? Because that secret letter was originally true.

They really can't read what is written on it without a password.

But there is one person who can understand, and that is Gui Shaoning.

As long as Gui Shaoning reads the secret letter, he will undoubtedly take the bait.

Through their cooperation, Gui Shaoning will also make a plan and escape with Li Weidong.

In this way, their plan is half the battle.

Now comes the point.

They have already arranged manpower, as soon as Gui Shaoning leaves the prison, they will immediately follow him quietly, secretly tracking him, seeing where he goes and who he is in contact with.

In this way, they will be able to follow the vine and wipe out all the people who rescued Gui Shaoning.

You can even know the whereabouts of the secretly buried materials from Gui Shaoning.

It's a win-win.

As for Li Weidong, he is an insignificant small role at all.

Wang Zhenyi had to rush up.

Otherwise, they would have found someone to do the simple task.

was not optimistic about Li Weidong before, and asked him to perform in public, but it was just to give him an illusion and make him feel that he was very valued and the key to completing the task.

But actually.

In this game of chess, they played against Gui Shaoning.

Both sides know each other's hole cards, and it depends on who can be better and have the last laugh.

Gui Shaoning, who would only die of illness in prison if he didn't go out, had no choice, as long as he didn't want to die, he could only follow their script.

So the initiative, in fact, is in their hands.

At night, after Gui Shaoning fell asleep, Li Weidong hid in the thin quilt and secretly gnawed on the nest.

His movements were very careful, barely making the slightest sound, coupled with the noise of the wind blowing in from the window, even if Gui Shaoning was pretending to be asleep at the moment, it was impossible to hear it, let alone think that he would be eating.

It's a pity that he can only enter the game farm consciously, and that body can't eat in it, otherwise he wouldn't need to be so troublesome.

Because it was the first time he spent the night in a prison cell, Li Weidong did not enter the game farm.

Even though he saw with his own eyes that Gui Shaoning was already very weak and could not bring him harm at all, he still did not let his guard down.

The next day, Li Weidong woke up very early.

Or rather, he didn't sleep well last night.

The main thing is that the hay under the body is very uncomfortable, the quilt is thin, and the cell is also very cold.

Even if you are a strong young man, if you stay here for a long time, your body will slowly collapse.

He admires Gui Shaoning a little now, and he can persist in this environment for several years.

This can also show that he has a strong desire to survive and willpower.

A person with such a personality will definitely hold on to it after he has the hope of living.

Compared to Li Weidong who woke up early and sat there playing with the secret letter, Gui Shaoning didn't get up until almost noon.

Here, there is no such thing as breakfast, basically one at noon and one in the afternoon.

Gui Shaoning saw the secret letter in his hand and asked, "Mr. Hou San, aren't you curious about what is written in it?" ”

"Curious, I still secretly opened it and looked at it, but I couldn't understand it." Li Weidong said bluntly.

After Gui Shaoning woke up, he deliberately took out a secret letter, just to hang the other party's appetite and seize the initiative.

Gui Shaoning smiled and didn't offer to help him.

Because he also knew that as long as he didn't go out, it would be impossible for Li Weidong to give him the secret letter.

And his current hope of escaping is all pinned on him.

And after listening to his words, Gui Shaoning trusted him a little more.

Li Weidong put away the secret letter, stood up and stretched his waist, and moved his body, looking unhurried and impatient.

"Mr. Hou San, when are you going to take me out?"

Gui Shaoning looked a little anxious.

"Don't worry, according to the news I inquired, here is to go out once in five days to let the wind out, and there are still two days before the next release, and when the time comes, we can go out."

Li Weidong said casually, as if he could leave easily.

When he first came in, Chang Qingbo agreed with him that on the day of the release, he would deliberately leave him a chance to escape.

Even the time and route were planned for him.

All he had to do was read it out of the book.

At the same time, according to the agreement, after he left the prison with Gui Shaoning, he would first go to the place where he had hidden his clothes and other things to change clothes, and then wait until it was dark and go to a nearby orchard.

In the orchard, there is a dilapidated house that no one lives in, which is the first safe place for Chang Qingbo to stay.

By this point, his mission was almost complete.

Because next, according to the plan, Chang Qingbo and the others would find out about him and Gui Shaoning's escape, and follow the trail to catch up.

Before, Li Weidong talked about the conditions and asked for a gun.

So Chang Qingbo allowed him to fire two shots into the sky at that time, and then pretended to be injured and stayed to cover, so that Gui Shaoning could take advantage of the dark night and escape alone.

In order to give Gui Shaoning the strength to escape, Chang Qingbo also thoughtfully left food, water and special medicines in that safe house.

It can be said that Li Weidong does not need to play much in this task.

In the end, if you are generous, the task that belongs to him will be completed, and you can retire and go to Wang Zhenyi to receive the reward.

But that was just Chang Qingbo's plan, not Li Weidong's plan.

Since he pretended to be Hou San, the direction of things has been beyond the influence of Chang Qingbo and others.

The reason why Li Weidong did not obey the command and changed the plan without authorization was not only for the sake of his own safety, but also because he really wanted to complete this task.

Again, the purpose is twofold.

As long as he finds that batch of secret materials, as the person recommended by Wang Zhenyi, Wang Zhenyi's main credit will be indispensable, and he can go further.

The other is that Li Weidong is also fighting the idea of that batch of materials.

After all, according to Chang Qingbo's words, that batch of materials is very important, and gold, silver and jewelry must be indispensable in it.

And he needed gold right now to make new land.

Just by urging ripening ginseng, only one or two blocks of land can be reclaimed in a short period of time, which is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.

But if he found that batch of secret materials, he could have intercepted some of them without realizing it.

When the time comes, not to mention the reclamation of all the eighteen blocks of land, at least half of it can be completed.

With so much land, he no longer has to worry about running out of money.

That's why he's so assertive.

For this reason, when he separated from Wang Zhenyi, he also asked a special question.

Ask him if he must follow Chang Qingbo's plan, and what if he has a better way?

At that time, Wang Zhenyi did not reprimand him, but pondered for a moment and told him that on the premise of being able to protect himself, as long as he didn't deliberately let Gui Shaoning go, even if something went wrong at that time, he could take it for him.

Obviously, Wang Zhenyi also knows that he will not be honest.

It was precisely with Wang Zhenyi's guarantee that he dared to do so.

So, just wait until you get out of prison.

So, who is the yellow finch, who is the praying mantis, and who is the cicada, but not necessarily.

Time passes slowly.

Soon it was time to let the wind go.
