There is no one upstairs, that is, people downstairs.

Bump, bumper.

I felt my heart beating in the quiet of the night.

Just like a beginner in the game of Go who is still in the stage of memorizing music, and has to play against a teacher who teaches him skills, I look at the stairs in the basement and feel the green tendons in my head jumping.

The pressure is coming.

I turned and ran downstairs.

In the cellar, Cheng Cheng guarded the door with his arms red with blood, and when I looked over, he said to me: "Penetrating wounds, nothing." ”

I remembered the Wa on the first floor whose head was shattered by a big revolver, and I guess it was the bullet that had changed direction through his skull, and pierced through the sincere arm that had come to help.

However, this is not the time to be considerate of subordinates.

I pushed open the jar of wine in the cellar according to the impression I remembered, and at the same moment that the door appeared, the light in the dark room shone outward, and a Wa man walked towards the door with a gun, and he seemed to feel a novelty about this mechanism - bang!

A gunshot rang out.

The Wa boy shook his head back violently and fell to the ground on his back.

In the next second, the whole room began to look for cover, and a few stupid Wa people actually chose to hide behind the wine tank, while I, motionless, looked at the slowly opening door.

At that time, I felt like my feet were heavy, but I had to pull them out under the attention of my men.

I walked towards the door, and slowly poked my head out in the shadows.

In the room, the powder boxes were still standing on both sides of the walls, but there was an extra chair and a Taishi chair in the middle of the room.

I thought it would be my mom or Aunt Fang sitting in the chair, so when I poked my head out, I deliberately smiled, hoping that this would ease their emotions.

But, I only saw Old Joe.

Old Joe sat in his chair with a loose grip on an antique from a firearm, Browning 1911, and sat there.

He looked at the door with his head bowed and tilted his head in an old-fashioned manner.

"Come in."

Of course he knew it was me.

The monitor screens behind Old Joe are all lit up, which is different from the software in my phone.

I mean, he watched me come in.

"Old man, haven't you rested yet?"

I wanted to be a little more relaxed, which is why I said such a playful thing.

When my whole body appeared at the door, Old Joe didn't mean to raise the muzzle of the gun at all.

Because, on both sides of this door, the muzzles of several AKs are also aimed at him.

"Close the door."

I heard Old Joe speak the same casual words as before, and in response to him was a sneer on my face.

Seeing that I was unmoved, Old Qiao stared at me and added, "I'm for your good." ”

Then, he continued: "Or are you afraid? ”

I entered the room, picked up the bench, placed it next to the explosives box, removed the explosives box, entered the code on it, and slowly closed the door.

All that was left in the room was the light on the screen behind Old Joe, staring at the two of us.

He slowly raised his head, gritted his teeth at me with his chin and scolded, "You wrong tendon!" ”

"What are you doing here with someone!!"

I crossed Erlang's legs, looked at him with a quiet smile, and opened my mouth for a long time before I opened my mouth and said, "It's really like acting." ”

But he didn't open his mouth anymore.

I think it's probably time for me to perform.

"Why am I coming back?"

"I can't ask you this."

"Sent me to the village to deliver the message, called Yang Rong in the middle of the night and asked him to throw me on the front line to attack the Burmese army, and then the disaster led northward, triggering a full-scale conflict between the Burmese army and the Kokang army...... Didn't you say that? ”

Old Joe didn't deny it at all: "I said it." ”

"And then?"

I looked at him.

For the first time, Lao Qiao replied to me so formally: "Then the Burmese army arrived at the border, so that Xiaobao did not dare to move, and we took the opportunity to start transporting goods, and when Mengneng's strength could compete with the Wa State......"

"When?!"

I asked, squealing.

Old Joe said a little incomprehensibly, "You can't wait?" ”

"Today's trouble, do you feel that I have been pressing the goods in my hands and not going out, so that you can't make money?"

I didn't expect that......

"Why are you still playing stupid with me at this moment?"

Old Joe glanced left and right: "With you, I'm pretending to be stupid!" ”

"You didn't pretend to be stupid, you deliberately hid the key points and didn't say anything, but you picked yourself up every word!"

"Young Master Bao didn't hesitate to kill his own father with his own hands in order not to let you control it, you don't have to give an explanation for this matter?"

"Do you think, if you don't give an explanation, can the Wa State Army let you go?"

"What if the Burmese army presses the border?"

"Can you withstand the pressure of public opinion?"

"At that time, who will carry this black cauldron?"

"No, it has to be me!"

Old Joe's gaze at me grew harder and harder in my words, and finally he only said one sentence: "That's what you think......"

"So what should I think?!"

I stood up, walked directly across from Old Joe, and said as if completely oblivious to the danger, "You tell me what I should think?" ”

"Let me, a person who has never been a soldier, lead people to attack the Burmese army, what do you think I should think?"

"Isn't it just to see how many black people I bought, more like terrorists!"

"Don't you just want to push the boat down the river, put the big bag on my head directly, turn your head and continue to sing a friendly drama with Young Master Bao?"

"What the should I think!"

After thinking for a while, Old Qiao raised his head and said, "Have you seen it when you go home?" ”

"I should ask you!"

"Why is the light dark at night in my house?"

Old Qiao nodded: "Yes, I tied up your mother, your woman and the child in her belly...... That's what it's like, right? ”

He was asking me......

I suddenly ...... Suddenly, I felt that Lao Qiao's expression didn't seem right.

"Then I didn't notice it at all, today's Meng Neng is the same as usual, there is no change?" As if he had thought of it, he said, "Oh, yes, this is the trap I set for you to look empty on the surface, and then, when this situation arises, I slap ......"

Smack.

He put the gun on his lap and slapped his palm lightly.

I pulled my gun down my waist and turned to the door.

Smack.

A drop of sweat fell from my hair, right in front of my eyes, and I didn't even realize when I was sweating, and how could I sweat in this weather, this is spring.

"Didn't you close the door yourself?"

When Old Joe said this, I turned around again and pointed a gun at his head.

Yes, he's right, the door was closed by myself......

Old Qiao's usual kindness to me disappeared, and he looked at me with a very unfamiliar gaze and said, "Xu Ruifeng, you're finished." ”

"It's completely over."

This time, he didn't call me 'little mute' again.
