Chapter XXXIV. After the gunshots
Di Baotian said coldly, Brother Situ, you are still the same, you will slow down for the people you care about, people are righteous enough, but this has also become your weakness, when I shot just now, you could have slashed at my head, but you didn't, because you found that my gun was not aimed at you, you hesitated, this is your most fatal weakness, those who become big things are not informal, if you can't even give up this bit of affection, in this battle, you are destined to be the one who loses.
I still didn't come back to my senses in the gunshot just now, the sudden shot just now, although Da Mao and the silly girl were not injured, but they were frightened, Da Mao's eyes and mouth widened, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, the silly girl was so frightened that she cried, and the huge cry echoed through the wall in this small room, which seemed even more poignant. Obviously, this shot was deliberately fired on the ground, and with his ability as a professional soldier, he didn't just shoot him once when I rushed over, even if he fired two shots in a row and exploded the heads of Da Mao and the stupid girl, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to rush to him.
After hearing the gunshots, almost everyone outside came in, and the door of the house was suddenly crowded, and if I wanted to escape, I was afraid that I could only get out of the window that I had broken before, but it was obvious that even if I got out, I would be alone, and I would not be able to save Da Mao and the silly girl anyway.
To put it selfishly, in fact, the life and death of the silly girl does not have much impact on me, after all, there is no friendship, and I just said a few words. But I can't leave Da Mao alone, and Da Mao won't care about the life or death of the silly girl, so that the three of us are tied together, but it has become a burden.
After the people outside the door rushed in, several men quickly separated Da Mao and Silly Girl, and clasped their hands with their backhands, although they were not tied with ropes, but Da Mao and Silly Girl still became the same as just now, unable to break free. In this room, occult magic is useless, and Da Mao and I contain each other, but become a passive party. And the woman, as soon as she had rushed into the house, had drawn a very short gun and pointed it at me, and looked at the sky with wary eyes, as if she were waiting for his orders.
All of a sudden, the room was silent, my ears were still buzzing from the gunshot, and the hand that grabbed the scimitar began to tremble in despair, and I gritted my teeth, and I almost felt like crying because of the utter helplessness in my heart. Di Baotian saw that Da Mao and Da Mao were both restrained, so he slowly put down the gun in his hand, and then said to the woman who pointed the gun at me, put the gun down, all three of them are tied up, and they are locked in this room.
The woman said anxiously, don't you make trouble, okay? I know this is your good friend, but now that he knows everything, he has a lot of dreams at night, so it's better to solve it sooner. Di Baotian sighed and said, this is a suburb, and there are no people around, and a shot sounds like a firecracker to others, and it will be fine. Sooner or later, they will have to deal with it, but until then, I hope to give my big brother another chance, and when we dig up the stone rhino, if they still refuse to submit, it will not be too late to kill them.
In addition to some helplessness and despair in my heart, it is more because of the indifference and ruthlessness of the earth, and I feel very sad that my brother has become like this. Several men came up and snatched the scimitar and my satchel from my hand at once, then buckled my hand behind my back, and then tied my shoulders and hands together with a rope, this scene was a bit like when I was criticized, except that I was not wearing a high hat at the moment, and I did not have a large plate on my chest indicating my reactionary identity. So when they snatched my scimitar and satchel, I didn't even resist or struggle.
After tying up the three of us, one of the men rummaged through my bag, took out the pistol I had put in my bag, and handed it to Di Baotian. Di Baotian tugged at the bolt of the gun, as if to withdraw the bullet, and then put the gun back into his trouser pocket. Then he walked up to me, pulled a stool from the side, gently pressed my shoulder, and sat me down. Then he squatted down next to me and said, Brother Situ, time is running out, you should think about it, some things must be done, this is called pioneering, we are used to living a life of sitting and enjoying success, and it is time to make a little dedication.
I am powerless to refute it, because Di Baotian's logic has been completely brainwashed at this moment, and the truth he agrees with is only the one in his heart, and I also know that no matter what I say at the moment, I will never be able to reverse him. So I bit my lip and said nothing, I even turned my head to the other side and closed my eyes from him.
I only heard Di Baotian say to the woman, you go and help me clean up the next room, I will sleep next door tonight, and when will the master you contacted come? The woman said that she heard that she had received it in Chengdu, and now it was getting late, and it was estimated that they would stay for one night before they came, and it was estimated that they would have to be noon tomorrow. Di Baotian said, okay, let's wait until he comes, take out the information that this female ghost has, and the rest, it's time to start digging, then start digging the soil.
Listening to the tone of the earth, he will not do this himself, and if he wants to find clues from the female ghost, he must have a master to help. I don't blame that master at all, because he may not know the truth of the matter, if he does, I'm afraid the end will be the same as us, even I and my brother who has been in the sky for many years can do it, let alone those others.
So that night, when the woman had cleaned up the room next to her, she left the house with my satchel and the bamboo sign of the female ghost, leaving only one man in our room to watch and watch over us. Da Mao looked very depressed, even at this moment, he always let the silly girl snuggle on his shoulder, I looked at their appearance, my heart was very sad, you must know that it is difficult to find a person who is willing to be with him all the time in his life, and whether the other party is smart or stupid, this is Da Mao's own choice. It's a pity that when Da Mao just made his choice, it seemed that he had no time and opportunity to prove all this.
And the silly girl seemed to be overly frightened, but instead of crying at this time, she sobbed every few seconds, as if she had been crying hard before and had not eased up, she fell on Da Mao's shoulder, and fell asleep deeply, saying that the life of a fool is a happy life, because they can be described as having no desires and no desires, but the silly girl who should have been confused but happy to live her life happily has left this bad memory in her heart at this moment because she was involved in such an incident.
The man guarding us kept his eyes dangling on me and Da Mao, and he didn't wander at all, I don't know if it was his military career that made him develop such a habit, let alone me at the moment, even if it was a fly, I was afraid that it would be difficult to escape his eyes. I'm going to give it a try, though, because this room allows us to use the occult arts, but if I can take a step out of this room, I'll be able to clean up everyone in the room at once, as long as I don't get shot, of course.
So I shouted to the man, hey, is there a urinal? I'm going to pee. I just said it was a urinal, because I believe he would definitely not take me out to pee, and I didn't really have an urgency to urinate, but I hoped that while he was going to get the urinal, I could quickly grab a piece of the glass shards left on the ground by the window I had just broken into and put it in my hand, although my hands were tied backwards, but the main thing was that I could catch the glass shards on the ground by rolling around, as long as I didn't let the other party see my hands, I could think of cutting the rope.
And the reason why I want a urinal so definitely is because I know the character of the earth so well. Before I broke in, it was obvious that this house was the place where Di Baotian lived, and there was no other house that could be used as a thatched house, Di Baotian was a person with a little cleanliness since he was a child, when he went to school in his early years, he felt that the thatched house in Mr.'s house was very dirty and smelly, even if he held it every day, it was convenient to hold the feces and urine home, because of his cleanliness, Mr. also used a sentence to describe him, called "Fat water does not flow into outsiders' fields", for this I once made fun of Di Baotian for a long time. At that time, I lived in the second uncle's house, and I often went to the second uncle's house, generally speaking, at that time, I would feel that it would be very cold to go out to the thatched house at night and there were mosquitoes, and I had to walk such a way, and I estimated that I would wake up from drowsiness back and forth, so basically every household would prepare a night pot. But Di Baotian was reluctant to live or die, because he said that if he thought that the night pot was under the bed, he would feel very smelly, and then he couldn't sleep all night, so he simply didn't want it, either he went out to solve it by himself, or he held it until dawn.
So I knew that in this room, there could be anything, but there was absolutely no urinal. Unless all these years in the army have completely changed this habit.
Sure enough, when the man heard me say that I was going to pee, he ignored me, looked at me and looked away. We had been locked up for almost two hours, and our hands and feet were a little numb, and we all did, and the man who was guarding us was no better, and perhaps he would have thought this was an opportunity for him to move his hands and feet. But as if he had not heard me at all, he ignored my request.
So I said to him again, "Hey, talk to you, I'm going to pee, please bring me a urinal!" I deliberately accentuated the word "please" so as not to be too polite, and also expressed to him that I was a little anxious.
