Pastoral Daily Life - Chapter 154
[Chapter 154 Crisis]
The search by Yan Yue and his party continued, and the police officers who stayed behind in the village received news that an injured drug dealer might have run out and lurked around the village.
“Don’t disturb the villagers, and don’t let go of any suspicious places. Remember, the other party is a ruthless desperado. We must ensure the safety of the villagers, and be careful that the other party’s fish die and the net breaks.” The person in charge who stayed behind ordered.
The surrounding police all agreed.
This time, they have followed the case from the beginning of the year to the present. They have devoted all their energy to this case for three months. Now it is about to close the net. As long as these main culprits are caught, the overseas The drug cartel is about to be wiped out. But if any one of them is run away, it is uncertain when the other party will resurface. Therefore, the police present held their breath and said that they would never let any drug dealer go.
As soon as they started the investigation, some staff from the previous workstation came to the police in a panic, saying that two companions were kidnapped by an injured man, and the other party ran towards the rainforest.
“What! The drug dealer took two hostages?” The person in charge who stayed behind was anxious, and while arranging for the police to chase after him, he quickly contacted the person in charge of the search in the rainforest.
“What’s the matter?” The
two staff members regretted it a lot. They were just kind, and who knew that they would provoke outlaws. Just half an hour ago, they met an injured man at the entrance of the village. The men wore local national costumes and were very familiar with the surrounding environment, so they had no doubts, and took the man back to the village and re-medicated the man. After the man took the medicine, he said he wanted to go back to the village at the other end of the mountain. They saw that the man was really inconvenient, and they kindly sent the man to the entrance of the village, waiting for the man to say to pick up his companion. Unexpectedly, the men were not as inconvenient as he said. Instead, they took out their guns and took their companions into the rainforest when they were not paying attention.
The two companions who were kidnapped by the man were also familiar with the police. They happened to be the two who came to the police in the morning and said they had discovered the whereabouts of the drug dealers. They also had a friend who was now leading the police in the rainforest. Hearing this, the police chief also felt a headache.
He remembered the very good-looking boy, especially the warm feeling the boy gave him when he smiled. He also remembered the young man’s companion, a handsome and strong man, who spoke to them without leaking, and it was not easy to see. Not to mention that these people are friends of the senior police superintendent Fang Lei sent from Fengcheng in this joint operation. The handsome man before took the initiative to stand up to lead the way for the police. The police thanked him and promised to protect his companions who stayed in the village. But how long did it take for the boy to be held hostage by drug dealers, how could he explain to the man?
He hasn’t figured out what to say yet, but his subordinates have already contacted the leader of the anti-drug team in the rainforest.
“What’s the matter? Some villagers were kidnapped by drug dealers?” The voice of the team leader Wu Jiang came from the satellite phone.
The local person in charge smiled bitterly, “It’s not our local villagers, it’s the other two people who called the police this morning. One of their companions is with you, and I’m ashamed to say anything about Team Wu.”
According to the person in charge, the drug dealers were really kidnapped. The local villagers don’t have to worry so much. The nearby villagers are on the border, and their folk customs are sturdy. Even if they are really held hostage, they may find an opportunity to fight against the drug dealers. And they are also familiar with the rainforest and know how to avoid the dangers in the rainforest. But the two people who were held hostage were both foreigners, one was old and the other was young, and neither had any experience in living in the rainforest.
Wu Jiang’s face sank, and he quickly glanced at Yan Yue in front of him, and said in a low voice, “Okay, I understand. They can’t run very far, so hurry up and send someone to chase.”
After hanging up the phone, Wu Jiang thought Daoxiang stepped forward and patted Yan Yue’s shoulder, “Brother, let me tell you something.”
Yan Yue had an inexplicable feeling in his heart since he received the call from Wujiang . He stared at Wu Jiang’s face tightly, his eyes were like knives, for a while Wu Jiang was forced to be speechless.
Fang Lei, who was on the side, realized that something was wrong, he immediately stood beside Yan Yue, and said in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Yan Yue looked sharp and looked at Wu Jiang with a heavy gaze, but his tone was unexpectedly calm, “Speak, come out. What’s the matter?”
Wu Jiang was a little embarrassed, but now was not the time to hide it. He told the news again, focusing on the fact that the police left behind in the village had been dispatched, so that Yan Yue didn’t have to worry. After all, the other party was injured, and he suspected that the other party was being held hostage on purpose. According to the statement of the other two staff members, the other party can completely escape if they want to run. Even if the opponent wanted to kill Lu Lingxi before running, there was absolutely no problem. But the other party didn’t do anything, but thankfully held Lu Lingxi and the two into the rainforest. He analyzed that the other party must have known that they had leaked their whereabouts, and that the police had begun to search the rainforest before taking hostages as a bargaining chip. In this way, there should be no danger in meeting Lu Lingxi and Wang Chaoliang for a while.
He said that these are not only analysis, but also hope that Yan Yue can calm down after listening to it. Although Yan Yue seemed calm, he stood in front of Yan Yue at close range, but he knew how much pressure Yan Yue had on him, it was like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
Although he had been psychologically prepared in advance, after Yan Yue heard that Lu Lingxi was being held hostage into the rainforest, he still had a feeling that the blood was being drawn from his whole body and his brain was being smashed with a heavy hammer. He was clearly standing on the ground, but he had the illusion of falling into the abyss. Anxiety and fear filled his heart, and he had never been so flustered for a moment. Even if he heard the news of his parents’ divorce back then, even if his father objected to him returning to China after graduating from college, it did not make him feel deeply powerless as he is now.
“Yan Yue, Xiaoxi…” Fang Lei wanted to comfort him, but he didn’t know what to say.
Xiao Hei seemed to feel Yan Yue’s emotions, and quickly stuck his head out of his sleeve, slowly rubbing against Yan Yue’s wrist with his body, and hissing out a letter.
Being rubbed by Xiao Hei like this, Yan Yue completely calmed down. He knew that Wu Jiang could not be blamed for this matter, and he also needed Wu Jiang to help find Xiaoxi. He said sternly: “I’m going to find Xiaoxi.”
Wu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, the more Yan calmed down, the better he quickly made an analysis, “The reason why the single drug dealer escaped into the rainforest is actually the same as ours. Yes. We’re going to catch a few other drug dealers, and he’s going to rendezvous with a few other drug dealers. I can guarantee that your friend will be safe as long as we catch the other drug dealers before they converge. Whether it’s an ambush or negotiation, the initiative is in our hands.”
His analysis made sense, but it was all based on the fact that they caught several other drug dealers first. What if that drug dealer joins up with several other drug dealers first? What if they escaped the police altogether? What will happen to Konishi by then?
In the past, Wujiang has revealed a lot of the previous deeds of this gang of drug dealers, all of which are cruel and heinous. Yan Yue couldn’t imagine how they would treat Lu Lingxi, scolding, whipping, or… any kind of imagination would be like someone taking a knife and slicing the flesh in his heart, causing him pain to the bone.
Yan Yue calmed down and insisted: “I’m going to find Xiaoxi.”
After he finished speaking, he ignored Wu Jiang, lowered his head and rubbed Xiaohei on his wrist, and asked like no one else: “Xiaohei, how many helpers can you drive away?”
Xiaohei Flicking his tail, he seemed to be thinking. Just when Wu Jiang felt inexplicable, Xiao Hei suddenly jumped from Yan Yue’s wrist to the ground and swam into the grass beside him. After a moment of silence, the entire grass suddenly boiled like water. Just listening to the rustling sound at the feet of everyone, countless snakes of different colors drilled out from the grass, next to the roots of the trees, and among the vines, and swam in all directions.
“Snake, why are there so many snakes!” A policeman’s voice sounded in a panic. After
the initial disbelief, Wu Jiang immediately shouted, “Don’t move, these snakes won’t attack, don’t move anyone.”
They all resisted the urge to do something and stayed where they were. Just looking at these snakes, it seemed that they didn’t notice them at all.
“Captain, what’s going on here?”
A policeman came over and asked Wu Jiang. Except for Wu Jiang and Fang Lei, no one else noticed Yan Yue’s behavior.
Wu Jiang glanced at Yan Yue with a strange look, and said with a sullen face, “How do I know, keep searching.”
The interrogating police hit a nail and went back to continue the search mission. They have now reached the vicinity of Rafflesia, looking for traces of previous drug dealer activities.
Xiao Hei slowly bit Yan Yue’s pants and climbed back onto his wrist. Yan Yue touched its head, waiting for the snakes to bring back the news around him. Speaking of which, when he was looking for traces of drug dealers, Yan Yue was not ready to expose Xiao Hei easily, nor did he know how powerful Xiao Hei was, and whether it would work in finding someone. But now it’s about Lu Lingxi, Yan Yue doesn’t care about Wu Jiang’s reaction, nor does he care about whether the snakes have the ability to find people, but only wants to use all the power that can be used to find Lu Lingxi.
It is already afternoon, and the rain forest is already dimly lit by vines. At this time, as the sun is about to set, the color is dim and it looks a bit eerie. In order not to frighten the snakes, none of the police officers present turned on the lights, and continued to search the surroundings quietly and silently.
Time passed by, just as Yan Yue became more and more anxious, worried that if he found Lu Lingxi too late, Lu Lingxi would be more dangerous, Xiao Hei, who had been quietly wrapped around his wrist, suddenly stood up. , spit out the letter quickly. The next moment, Yan Yue suddenly looked towards the southeast corner and was about to say something when a faint gunshot rang out there.
“Southeast corner, let’s take a look.”
Wu Jiang shouted immediately, and Yan Yue was the first to run towards the southeast corner.
Deep in the rainforest, the man with the scarred face slapped the young man beside him. “Liu, if you want to die, don’t drag others. Is this a place to shoot?”
“I’m sorry, brother.” The young man covered his face and said vaguely. His face was already swollen. He also knew that he shouldn’t shoot. At this time, the border police and anti-narcotics police outside were looking for them, but he was surprised that there were a few snakes at his feet, and they were all poisonous snakes in the rainforest. It was probably his reaction. He jumped his feet and looked at the snakes scattered on the ground, with a puzzled expression, “What’s wrong with big brother? Why are there so many snakes all of a sudden?
” On the first day, I knew that it was dark now, and they should come out to find food, and it is normal to feel your scent.”
“But I have applied snake repellent potion on my body.” The young man was still puzzled. The man with the scarred face
interrupted him impatiently, “Okay, the third one just contacted him and said that he has two people in his hands, let us meet him as soon as possible, let’s go.”
Heading northwest, they were very familiar with this rainforest, and they avoided several potentially dangerous places in advance.
“Be careful.” The scarred-faced man reminded, “There is a snake road not far ahead, and it seems that the arm is thick and thin.” He muttered: “Why are there so many little snakes along the way.”
Someone next to him sneered: “Little snakes are always stronger than big pythons.”
“Shut up.” Scarface suddenly whispered: “Something’s wrong.”
“What? ” Before the words
fell, they knew what was going on. Behind a few big trees with three or four people’s thickness next to them, heavily armed anti-narcotics police came out.
“MD is a sliver, run.”
There was a gunshot, and the surroundings were in chaos.
Just as Yan Yue and his party ambushed the drug dealers and opened fire, Lu Lingxi was exploring the way in the rainforest in the dark. Wang Chaoliang followed behind him with a bruised face, his hands were tied, and one end of the rope was held in the hand of the man they rescued at the entrance of the village. The man held a gun in the other hand, pointing in the direction of Lu Lingxi.
“Don’t be lazy, go faster.” The man scolded.
Lu Lingxi pursed his lips and did not speak. He tried to walk as fast as he could while noticing whether there were any poisonous snakes around. He knew that if he walked slowly, it would be Chao Liang behind him who would be beaten. Since being held hostage by a man into the rainforest, he and Wang Chaoliang didn’t think about resisting, and they once tried to use the python to restrain the man after encountering a large python, and took the opportunity to grab his gun. It’s a pity that neither he nor Wang Chao Liang were good enough, and he was countered by the man after a few moments, and even the big python was beaten to death by the man. After that, the man beat the two of them, but Wang Chaoliang was the one who was mainly beaten, while Lu Lingxi didn’t take a few hits, and he didn’t know why.
Not far in front was a big tree with a thickness of several people. Lu Lingxi tried to avoid the big tree. The snakes in the rainforest like to climb on the trees, and I don’t know when a snake will jump out of the tree. He was about to take a few steps to the left when an unknown fruit hit him on the head. He raised his head subconsciously, and a familiar little monkey crouched on a branch and squeaked towards him.
