Volume 4, Demon Raven Demon Palace_Chapter 243, The Encounter of the Beads
Although Zhu Zi is not the top big man in this circle, it is because he does not have a good backstage, and he does not have good luck like me. But when it comes to mental qualities, he's definitely top-notch. Back then, when I was roaming under Xuanming Temple with him and the fat man, he was not as irritable as he is now when he encountered such great danger. The more angry the bead in front of him was, the more it showed the seriousness of the situation he encountered, and this point aroused my curiosity more and more.
"Hehe, you ate my stuff and tied me and my friends. Now that we're in such a little hole, you won't let me ask? It's not fair, besides, you know that although I am no longer friends with you, at least I am not a bad person, and I may be able to help you. ”
"Can you help me?" He squinted at me.
"Zhuzi, we have known each other for more than ten years, and it can be said that you were also half a leader when I entered the industry. Besides, although there are contradictions between us, we haven't reached the level of mortal enemies, so I don't need to deliberately harm you. Don't you know what kind of person I am? I shrugged my shoulders and said. The bead muttered for a moment and then stood against the wall, staring at me for a few moments before slowly speaking, "Something is wrong with me." I...... I didn't come here on purpose. ”
A person is also the most vulnerable when he is most helpless, and inner fragility can make any outwardly strong person collapse, like a bead in front of him. In his opinion, tying me up doesn't just mean that he can get food and treasures, but more of a pillar, at least I used to be his friend.
"I took a job, there is a gold master to engage in a few aquatic demons, I inquired in the circle, determined the sea area and got a small fish boat and a few friends out to sea, I didn't expect to encounter such a big wind and waves, after the storm our boat capsized, I was holding the only complete lifeboat on the boat and drifted on the sea for about ten days, the ship's reserves of food were eaten up. I was very hungry, very thirsty, and when I felt like I was dying, I floated to the vicinity of this demon mountain. I didn't know it was a demon mountain at the time, I just thought it was a desert island in the sea. It took a lot of effort to go up the mountain, only to find out that this is the world of the demon clan. ”
"What have you been through on the island?" I asked.
"Hunt and kill, fear. Not long after I arrived on the island, I was discovered by some earth beasts, who took me as a foreign prey and tried to eat me. The wound on my arm was left by one of the big guys......" He turned his arm around as he spoke, and there was a visible wound on the back half of his upper arm, which was now bleeding and still looked scary.
"Later, I hid in Tibet, and gradually approached the center of the island, and discovered the existence of Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain, who came to this demon mountain earlier than me, and there were many of them. I was discovered by them later......" Speaking of this, Zhuzi's eyes showed a deep fear, deeper than when he just talked about the escape on the island, why was he more scared after being discovered by the people of Longhu Mountain? It seems that there are more secrets in this, which makes me more and more curious.
"Dragon Tiger Mountain is a righteous sect, and it's nothing if you are discovered by them, isn't it?" The former Li Yulang also interjected, but the bead on the opposite side almost broke him with a gun, and shouted in his mouth: "Who let you interject, who allowed you to interject!" ”
"Relax, relax a little. We don't do you any danger, do we? Seeing that Zhuzi had calmed down a little, I continued, "What happened next? ”
"I was found by them, I thought I was rescued, I still have some connections in Longhu Mountain, but...... I was taken to the base some distance from here, and then I saw what hell on earth was...... "Obviously, the bead saw something in that so-called base, something that he still can't forget, and is deeply afraid. And what he saw might be the real reason why the Dragon Tiger Mountain Sect entered this mountain.
"What do you see?"
"A huge factory." Bead's eyes were empty and cold, as if he was speaking to the air, and we didn't seem to be in front of him at all.
At the same time, the old man Tao on the cargo ship was imprisoned in a black prison where there was no light to be seen, and he sat in the corner, his hair scattered and his face covered in blood. The darkness seemed to make the already cold bottom cargo compartment even colder, and the dead silence around it seemed to tell you that you had died in the past. At this moment, the door to the cargo hold was opened, and a sailor who walked staggering and looked like he was drunk walked in with a dinner plate.
"Mr. Tao, I'm Cripple Li, I'm eating." He said to the old man Tao who was sitting in the corner.
Old man Tao slowly opened his eyes, the injuries and exhaustion on his body seemed to make his eyelids sink even more, and the sailor in front of him put the dinner plate on the ground and said in a low voice: "I secretly got a few pieces of painkillers and put them in the steamed buns, you must eat them." ”
"Hmm......" Old Man Tao weakly reached out to grab the steamed buns, such a simple action seemed to consume the strength of his whole body.
"A lot of our brothers above us are trying to find a way to save you, especially the researcher who is following you. However, the communication line has been cut off, and the three ships have been controlled by Deputy Director Xia. Yue Cheng is unwilling to cooperate with us, and we are prepared to burn you if we really can't find anyone. But no matter what, we'll definitely get you out safely. The sailor lowered his voice and said to Old Man Tao, who chewed a mouthful of steamed buns, but shook his head and said, "You tell them...... Let them ...... Don't act, there's no point. It's just going to kill more people......"
"But we can't watch you suffer here." The sailor said anxiously.
"Hehe, they can't help me, ahem...... I've never seen any storms and waves. Believe me, wait for Ba Xiaoshan to come back...... Deputy Director Xia will pay the price...... Ahem...... he coughed as he spoke, panting weakly.
"But we're afraid that Ba Xiaoshan won't be able to come back, after all, the situation in Demon Mountain is complicated. What if he dies? We can't put all our hopes in him alone......" said the sailor anxiously, and even revealed an incomprehensible tone of blind confidence in Mr. Tao. But at this moment, Old Man Tao grabbed the other party's wrist and said softly: "He will definitely come back, I know that he will definitely become the director of the 507 Institute, this is his fate......"
"Hey, is it eaten inside? When you're done, come out! The guards outside shouted impatiently, and the sailor hurriedly stood up with his plate, glanced at the guards outside with disgust, and slowly walked out of the cabin. After he was gone, the door to the cabin was locked again, and darkness once again surrounded the weakened old man Tao.
In the conference room of the other boat, Deputy Director Xia shouted angrily: "Did you find the bomb?" ”
"Find ...... Found ......" The people under his command didn't dare to speak in the face of the angry Deputy Director Xia, and their faces were extremely ugly.
"Then don't you find a way to dismantle it! Have you thought of a way to defuse a bomb? Deputy Director Xia asked.
Several of his subordinates showed embarrassed expressions on their faces, and one of them said in a low voice: "No, there are people among us who know about bombs, but after seeing the bombs, they all said that it is very difficult to do, it is very complicated, and the built-in detonation device connects the three bombs in a line, and if you pull one shot, the whole body will be moved." ”
"Fuck, all the waste is waste, what's the use of keeping you on a regular basis! Grass! Deputy Director Xia completely put aside his demeanor, and his original seamless plan now encountered such big trouble, which was beyond his control, making him fall into passivity.
"Let me come......" Ying Long said at this time.
"No, we can't take such a big risk, if the ship sinks, it will definitely trigger a water monster attack in the surrounding waters. We people are not good at water warfare, and falling into the water is equivalent to falling into the mouth of the water demon. Even if a few of you cadres have some skills, you can't guarantee that you won't be devoured by the big demon. Moreover, once the three cargo ships are sunk, I will definitely be reported to the leadership by Sha Lao when I return to Beijing, and I may be removed from my post at that time. Damn it, this damn Tao glance! ”
