Chapter 115: The Fierce Face Is Revealed
"Xiao Cheng, have you seen that mute recently?" Wu Xiuwen asked.
I saw that she sat up instead of being weak and boneless. With his hands in front of his chest, he looked serious.
"What's wrong with that dumb man. Sister Wu?" I asked cautiously.
Yesterday, it was the snake medicine given to me by the mute, and he went with me to the tent to treat Wu Xiuwen's injuries. I'm not sure if Wu Xiuwen remembers.
"He stole something very important from us!" Wu Xiuwen said coldly with his chin raised.
"Huh?" I cried out in surprise.
By this time, I had almost guessed the matter. Cui Mingren and Wu Xiuwen have not allowed Zheng Shuang and Xu Yue to go out, must be to prevent the two of them from stealing the "important things" she said.
But as far as I know, Cui Mingren and Wu Xiuwen both escaped from the robbers' boat, and it's good to be able to wear clothes. And where did you get any valuables?
Nine times out of ten. This thing is what they found on the island. That's why they kept him dumb and didn't let him go back to the hut.
"Sister Wu, what is it? Do you want me to help you find it?" I asked, pretending to be confused.
"Hmph, no. He can't run!" Wu Xiuwen snorted disdainfully.
Apparently she had already determined that the thing was taken by a dumb man.
After all, we were together yesterday. She knew that.
Wu Xiuwen didn't speak again. Instead, he rolled over and lay down on the bed and pretended to sleep.
It seems that she is waiting for news from Cui Mingren.
Although the island is quite large, it is not difficult to find an unsuspecting person.
I was worried about being dumb and restless in the house.
"Sister Wu. It was so stuffy in the house that I went to the door to get some air. Call me if there's something to do. I said as I watched Wu Xiuwen's reaction.
"Hmm. She snorted with her eyes closed.
I didn't see any violent reactions, so I exited the room and walked out quickly.
The sun is hot at this time. The leaves were wilted. The insects in the grass also chirped dryly. I looked around and saw no one, so I picked up a bucket by the door and walked to the cellar on the other side of the woods.
"What did Cui Mingren and Wu Xiuwen find on this island? Why did they suspect that the dumb man stole those mysterious things? Could it be that the dumb man really stole them?" I thought as I lowered the bucket into the cellar to fetch water.
I suddenly remembered. There were many large and small wooden boxes in the dark hole where the dumb man went the night before.
Could it be that Cui Mingren is looking for those boxes?
As soon as the tide rises, the dark hole will be submerged under the surface of the sea, so it seems. It's a great place to hide things.
But who hid these things on the island?
Could it be
I suddenly remembered the shipwreck I had found in the lake.
I also picked up a box on that ship, and although it contained valuable things, it was also a terrible cargo.
"Could it be that two gangs of gangsters are trading here, fighting to the death, running to the death, and this island has been abandoned?"
At this moment, I saw Xu Yue come out of the wooden house, stretching out his head and looking around.
"It may be that Wu Xiuwen saw me leave and asked Xu Yue to come to me. I snorted, picked up the bucket, and poured it on my head with a thud.
Xu Yue heard the sound of water and looked over to the water cellar.
Seeing that I was taking a shower with my back to her naked, I turned around and went back to the cabin. γδΈ^ε «1()7,8 <γγ
I stayed outside for a while, but I didn't hear anything nearby, so I had to go back to the hut with my wet clothes.
