Throwing a gun is tantamount to putting your own life in the hands of the opponent.
Zhen Congyun stared at him.
Ling Shu was also staring at him.
Yue Dingtang saw Ling Shuchong shaking his head slowly, his movements were barely visible.
If his marksmanship is fast enough, he can punch a hole in Zhen Congyun's head before she pulls the trigger.
But this is tantamount to betting on Ling Shu's life.
Judging from the fact that Zhen Congyun had just shot and injured Ling Shu's leg, his marksmanship was also trained.
A man of agility is not scary, what is scary is that he is still a lunatic.
Yue Dingtang was not sure if she would fight back madly before she died, and shot Ling Shu in the back of the head.
The dim light dimmed into a small clump of bright light.
Ling Shu's face, even in the light of this color, did not hide his paleness.
His lips were pressed together tightly, like ashes about to be burnt out.
Dry, obscure, with some kind of ominous omen, it slowly withered in the early spring.
Yue Dingtang's heart twitched slightly.
He wrapped all the softness under the surface of cruel and calm, like a pool of stagnant water, never letting Zhen Congyun see the slightest clue.
When speculation becomes reality, no one can make the most accurate judgment about what a madman might do.
but now-
He couldn't afford to take this risk.
The gun was thrown to the ground by Yue Dingtang.
The sound is unusually harsh.
Zhen Congyun showed a satisfied smile.
She has won the gamble so far.
She bet that Yue Dingtang didn't want to give up Lingshu.
But apparently she didn't expect her to win so smoothly.
Zhen Congyun's intuition was right, and she felt that the truth might be far more exaggerated than she thought.
"Come here, tie his hands, the rope is on the second person on your left, and you lead the way."
Yue Dingtang did not recognize the way, but Ling Shu did.
She asked Yue Dingtang to walk in the front, and Ling Shu to guide the way in the back. Even if there was any danger, Yue Dingtang would be the first to ride the thunder. If Ling Shu didn't want Yue Dingtang to die, he would naturally not point the way indiscriminately. .
Kill two birds with one stone.
Yue Dingtang naturally knew that Zhen Congyun was very smart, and it was impossible for someone who was not smart to be her father's secretary.
When her cleverness is used in the scheming of the city, it is naturally not much less.
Ling Shu slowly got up.
"Hurry up!" Zhen Congyun became impatient.
Ling Shu smiled bitterly: "Miss Zhen, you shot me in the leg, my rib was injured by your Ivanov kick, and my arm was also grazed by bullets, and now my hands are still tied, why don't you try it? Get up soon?"
Under the supervision of Zhen Congyun, Yue Dingtang did not make any small movements, the rope was firmly tied, and Ling Shu could not use his hands, so he could only get up a little by the wall, limping when he walked, and his heart was broken. pain.
"Ling Shu, do you know what I hate the most about you? It's just the look of love, you always have to pretend to be helpless, even if you don't know how much trouble you have suffered, do you remember that day I invited you to dance? I hated you from the moment you reacted like this. What are you, how dare you pretend to me!"
The more Zhen Congyun thought about it, the more angry he became, and he kicked Ling Shu directly in the back knee socket of his upper leg.
Yue Dingtang stopped in front of him.
He didn't look back, he heard Ling Shu smiling bitterly.
"Miss Zhen, I am a poor boy without power and power. I wanted to eat and drink, but I was caught by your eyes. I was flattered, and I was afraid that others would envy me. Isn't I worried about gains and losses?"
Zhen Congyun said coldly, "You say that you are flattered, but you despise me in your heart."
Ling Shu calmed down slightly and said slowly, "Miss Zhen, with all due respect, it's such a time now, it seems unwise for you to care about these details, even if I offend you, in a sense now , we are all in the same boat. Even if you take something, and the Japanese come back, you will kill me and you will not be able to escape."
Zhen Congyun laughed: "I'm going to ask you this. Ling Shu, Yue Dingtang sacrificed the chance to escape for you, won't you say something?"
Ling Shu: "Miss Zhen calm down, I don't know anything, I just follow Lao Yuan, this guy is gone now, I'm worried too..."
His words were interrupted by the sound of gunfire.
Yue Dingtang groaned, clutching his arms and staggering two steps.
"Three days later, the coffin of Vice Mayor Jin's mother will be sent to the Guanyin Temple for a short stay. As long as we move the contents of the box into the coffin, we can reach the railway station smoothly. As Vice Mayor Jin, even The Japanese will also give face, and the natural flow will be unobstructed at that time, and no one will stop it. Deputy Mayor Jin Gao Tang’s last wish was that the fallen leaves should return to their roots. Her hometown is in Beijing, and this coffin will eventually be transported from Fengtian to Beijing. After arriving in Beijing, Without the stalking of the Japanese, it would be much easier to retrieve the belongings from the coffin."
Ling Shu paused without hesitation, and almost finished speaking in one go.
Zhen Congyun was very satisfied: "Wouldn't it be nice to have it earlier? Why did Deputy Mayor Jin help you?"
Ling Shu: "I don't know, this is Lao Yuan..."
Zhen Congyun aimed the gun at Yue Dingtang's other arm again.
Ling Shu sighed: "I really don't know, but now the Northeast is nominally Manchukuo, and the former Qing emperor was invited to govern by them. He is a close relative and elder of the former Qing emperor. In the previous dynasty, he was a serious royal family member. With such a status, even if the deputy mayor is just a puppet, he still has at least affection and respect. It has now passed. One day, so it should be two days later, we will see the difference."
Zhen Congyun narrowed his eyes: "So it is."
Fengtian is now full of storms, and the Japanese are searching wildly, and ordinary things can’t get out of the city, let alone two boxes of treasures, but if the mother of Deputy Mayor Jin is used as a shield, the plan may not be impossible to achieve.
Yue Dingtang touched his pocket.
Zhen Congyun: "What are you doing!"
"Hemostatic gauze, I brought it from the hospital before. Let's stop the bleeding. Otherwise, even if you don't kill him, you will lose too much blood and die. How can you help you move the box after two days?"
Yue Dingtang was very calm, took out two rolls of hemostatic gauze, and threw one roll to Ling Shu.
Zhen Congyun looked at them coldly, but did not stop him.
"Get up and lead the way when you're bandaged, don't pretend to be dead, how far is it!"
Her voice was like a talisman, firmly branded on Ling Shu's back.
"After this gully, there is a stone gate in front of you. You can't open it directly. Someone has to go to the dead end next to it and get a stone, the size of which is just right to fit into the groove under the stone gate, in order to open the door."
Zhen Congyun said angrily, "Why didn't you say it earlier!"
Looking at her posture, it seemed like she was going to give Ling Shu another shot at any time.
Ling Shu shouted: "You didn't ask! It's not that you have to see Shimen, so you can believe that I didn't lie to you, otherwise you won't believe what I say."
Zhen Congyun: "How do you know how to open it?"
Ling Shu: "Old Yuan told me. He said that as the craftsman of this stone gate, some elders in the family also built a tomb for the Empress Dowager Cixi. Tang Yulin's secret way, although not a tomb, has a special purpose for him. It is also necessary to consider the storage of property and personal safety, so a tomb-like mechanism was created, but unfortunately he didn't use it in the end, but it was cheaper for Mrs. Guan."
While speaking, the horse lantern illuminated a small halo within a limited range ahead.
Zhen Congyun really saw a stone gate.
It is completely intact, there is no keyhole, only a small semi-circular groove at the bottom.
"You two, you can only go to one, take the stone and open the door."
"I go."
"I go."
The two spoke almost at the same time.
Zhen Congyun: "Yue Ding Tang is going."
She did not consider Ling Shu's injury, but was worried that Yue Dingtang would not be able to restrain him if she stayed.
After all, Ling Shu was seriously injured, so it was a bargaining chip in his hand.
"Miss Zhen, Lao Yue didn't recognize the way, and he didn't know where the stone was placed. Second, I was afraid that he would leave, and I would be rounded and flattened by you here. Wouldn't it be more miserable?"
Zhen Congyun: "He is willing to put down his gun for you, but you don't believe him?"
Ling Shu: "You won't kill us until you see something, but if there is a chance for us to escape now, Lao Yue might not be tempted, Miss Zhen, the human heart can't stand temptation. I have already paid back the favor. Now that I am injured, I can’t run far if I want to. If you ask me to find something, at least I can walk away to get some air and I don’t have to face you all the time.”
When Zhen Congyun heard the last sentence, he could not wait to shoot him in the other leg again.
She hated Ling Shu very much, but she couldn't tolerate Ling Shu hating herself as well.
"Yue Dingtang goes, you stay."
Yue Dingtang took a deep look at Ling Shu, said nothing, turned around and walked back.
Ling Shu said: "That road is a dead end. You don't have to go to the end. The stone is about fifty paces away in the right corner of the wall, and Lao Yuan has embedded the stone there."
Yue Dingtang hummed and walked away gradually.
"Miss Zhen, I can sit down and rest for a while."
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Ling Shu sat down directly against the wall.
The gunshot wound made him feel like he was on fire with every breath, and he knew he must have a fever without touching his forehead.
His throat was so dry that he could barely speak.
Ling Shu felt that if he had his life to go back this time, he would have to report to Dexing Hall with three meals a day.
Of course, Yue Dingtang paid the bill.
The premise is that they can go back alive.
Right now, this wish seems a bit extravagant.
Ling Shu secretly sighed.
This place in the northeast really beat him.
The first time I didn't fall into the sand, this time it seemed like I was going to die young.
Zhen Congyun threw a black shadow at him.
Ling Shu caught it without thinking.
It couldn't have been a bomb, and it would have only killed her.
When he got something, he was a little surprised.
It's a military water bottle.
Shake it, there is still a lot of water in it.
Ling Shu didn't say a word, opened the lid of the pot and raised his head to pour.
The icy cold water passed through his throat and into his stomach, which made him jolted and completely awake from start to finish.
The whole figure is like a withered grass that is on the verge of desperation. Suddenly, the rain comes back to life.
That kind of comfort could not help making Ling Shu sigh again.
A comfortable sigh.
He knew that Zhen Congyun didn't suddenly become kind, but he was afraid that he would die.
It doesn't matter if you die, if you fall short, you will be in trouble.
Ling Shu smiled: "Thank you Miss Zhen, I didn't drink it all, I still have some."
He threw the kettle back again.
Zhen Congyun snorted coldly and took it.
After quenching his thirst, his injuries were not relieved by half, and his body was actually still uncomfortable.
Ling Shu couldn't lift his strength and closed his eyes involuntarily.
Zhen Congyun didn't plan to let him sleep.
"Lao Yuan is Grandpa Guan's confidant and housekeeper."
This woman is ruthless and shrewd, and she deliberately does not let him get a moment's rest, even if there is a chance to recharge.
Ling Shu was helpless and had to raise his spirits to deal with it.
"good."
Zhen Congyun: "The two of you can't fight each other, so why are you hooking up together? Why does he believe you?"
This question has been lingering in her stomach since she knew that Ling Shu and Lao Yuan colluded.
Although both of them were little people she looked down on, Zhen Congyun didn't want to let go of any doubts that might be fatal.
Ivanov is dead, and all the people he brought are dead, but Yue Dingtang and Ling Shu are not fuel-efficient lamps. If these two people hadn't restrained each other, she might be the one who died now.
Zhen Congyun suddenly missed Shanghai and the splendid and prosperous Zhen family.
Although that home was like a gorgeous cage, and it was necessary to raise her into a canary, at least she still had personal safety, and she would not be in a life-and-death situation like now.
Comparing the two, Zhen Congyun really didn't know which option was better for her.
She hated that home and tried her best to escape.
But after he really escaped, he found that the sky was high and the sea was wide, and it was extremely dangerous.
It seemed like a long time before she heard the other party's voice.
"Because, I used to serve in the Northeast Army, and Lao Yuan was my comrade-in-arms."
