- Zhang Tie said this without a single murmur, and it was all done in one go. It was hard to believe. After hearing this, the man named Sneijder stared at Zhang Tie's face like a snake for a long time, as if he wanted to see something. There was a flaw, but Zhang Tie just pretended not to notice, his eyes just stared at the money bag in Sneijder's hand, swallowing hard.
"How about we go home with you to get it? If we let you go, it will be difficult for us to find you if you run away. We are just ordinary pioneers. It is our first time to come to Black Flame City, so we are not familiar with this place! "Sneijder, who carefully stared at the expression on Zhang Tie's face, said in a kind voice.
Zhang Tie pretended to think about it seriously, "Okay! But you have to pay me three no, five gold coins before I take you home. This counts as a deposit. After all, I picked up that thing. If you want to go back, you have to pay a little reward"
Sneijder and Huck looked at each other, and Zhang Tie seemed to be able to feel it from the eyes of the two people. In an instant, the two people seemed to have exchanged a cruel message with their eyes. The corners of the man named Huck's mouth outlined The arc that unfolded contained an indescribable sense of horror and disdain.
"Okay, lead the way!" The five gold coins turned into a stream of golden light and were thrown into Zhang Tie's hand. Zhang Tie held the money tightly in his hand, then quickly put the money into his pocket and pointed at it again. Pointing to the pile of things that originally belonged to him on the table in the distance, "Can you return those things to me?"
"certainly¡¡"
Just as Zhang Tie expected, Huck and Sneijder lived in a large Pioneer Hotel on the edge of the Upper East Side near the Black Flame City train station. Huck and Sneijder asked for a private room. Zhang Tie chose a suite in a remote location as his place to stay. Zhang Tie didn¡¯t know how the two men got him in, but looking at Huck¡¯s exaggerated figure and strength, as long as he put himself in his pocket, Carrying it on your back and covering it with a cloak, no one should suspect that the pioneers are a group of guys with weird tempers and methods, and have many taboos. No one should suspect that there is something hidden in the pocket under this guy's cloak. one person.
Zhang Tie was in a coma when he came in. When he went out, Sneijder asked Zhang Tie to put on a cloak and a hat to cover himself a little. Then, Zhang Tie, Huck and Sneijder But they walked out of the hotel arm-in-arm like three good friends. No one among the various people from all walks of life in the hotel was interested in looking at them.
Sneijder's right hand hugged Zhang Tie's neck like a good friend, making Zhang Tie groan secretly. Zhang Tie felt that the thing hugging his neck didn't look like a hand, but like a hand that was spitting out letters. Poisonous snake, that poisonous snake may kill you if you take a casual bite of it, and this guy named Sneijder always has a faint fishy smell, which makes Zhang Tie feel a little nauseated. Even Zhang Tie feels uncomfortable. I don't know when the dagger in Sneijder's hand will appear, and then he will slash his neck and end his life. In front of these two people, even though he was already a first-level soldier, Zhang Tie felt like a baby with no ability to resist at all. Are these two people at level six or level seven? Zhang Tie doesn't know. What Zhang Tie knows is that if any of these two people takes action, he will be finished. So tonight, don't expect that your little strength will bring you any hope. If you want to save your life, you have to Start somewhere else.
"We brothers have just arrived in Black Flame City and are not familiar with the place. We are easily nervous. When we are nervous, we can't help but do some things to protect ourselves, which may hurt some people. Therefore, no matter who we meet, Don't make us nervous with any of your words or actions. It's best for everyone, understand?" Sneijder said to Zhang Tie quite gently after walking out of the hotel.
Zhang Tie nodded obediently, but his mind was spinning rapidly.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening, not yet the curfew in Black Flame City, so there were a lot of people coming and going on the street. The three of them were walking along the side of the street. Zhang Tie and Sneijder were arm-in-arm. Walking in front, Huck followed the two men behind, walking together towards Zhang Tie's "home". During the process, he encountered two groups of patrolling city guards on the road. Zhang Tie knew that these patrolling city guards could not save him. So he didn't do anything excessive. At this time, Zhang Tie was most afraid of meeting his acquaintances. Once he did, he might be in trouble tonight. Fortunately, he didn't meet any acquaintances, and after missing two groups of city guards, Zhang Tie's honesty also made Zhang Tie feel that Sneijder and Huck, who had been tense, relaxed a little. The tense atmosphere eased slightly.
"That piece of wood seems to be made of red pine. It's very ordinary. Why is it so important to you?" Zhang Tie, pretending to be relaxed, asked Sneijder as he walked on the road.
"nothing much, you know that pioneers like us sometimes have some secret transactions and contact information. That piece of red thunder pine is a token. This is just a small trick for us pioneers, because the pattern and material of red thunder pine are very different. It's very strange. Basically there are no two pieces of red pine wood with exactly the same pattern, so splitting a piece of red pine into two pieces is a talisman for joints that no one can counterfeit. The two pieces of red pine are perfect for each other. Together, the texture of the wood is connected, which means that we found the right person. We got the piece of wood, completed our task, and then we left. You kid is really lucky. You made ten gold coins so easily " Sneijder also pretended to be relaxed and replied.
Only then did Zhang Tie suddenly realize that the role of the red thunder pine was here. Apparently, these two people wanted to come to Black Flame City to find someone, so the two parties used the piece of red thunder pine wood as a token for the joint. Thinking that the two of them had lost their joint token, they looked for themselves anxiously.
"I'm sorry to say it. If I hadn't bumped into you, your things wouldn't have been lost. Otherwise, I only need eight gold coins from you!" Zhang Tie said rather embarrassedly.
"Ten will be ten. This is your luck. It's also our own fault. Let's just pay to teach ourselves a lesson"
"Haha, thank you. These gold coins are enough for me to use for a long time. The pocket money at home is not that much. It is only ten or twenty silver coins a week. It is enough to find a woman twice"
"Ha ha ha ha¡¡"
"Hey Hey¡¡"
Both parties were walking and chatting with each other, really like two good friends.
"By the way, what's your name!" When Zhang Tie was relaxed, Sneijder suddenly asked this question, which almost made Zhang Tie tell his real name. Fortunately, his brain was very clear tonight. Zhang Tie already had a life-saving plan and story in his mind. As soon as he heard this question, he immediately answered it without thinking.
"My name is Du Shaofeng" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Tie quickly covered his mouth and looked at Sneijder at a loss, as if he suddenly said the wrong thing. And Sneijder's eyes flashed with a hint of pride, this kid is a little more mature after all.
The three of them walked on the streets of Upper East City for more than 20 minutes. After a while, they arrived at the residential area where Zhang Tie's "home" is located.
"You two wait here, I'll go in to get something and come down to you right away?" Zhang Tie's heart was beating violently, but his tone was as normal as before.
"Do you live here?" Looking at the heavily guarded residential area in front of them, with bright lights outside the high walls, and two rows of heavily armed city guards standing at the gate, Sneijder and Huck asked with ugly expressions.
"Yes, my brother is an officer in Black Flame City. This is the residential area for the families of Black Flame City Guard officers. Of course our family lives here" Zhang Tie said matter-of-factly, "We didn't live here before either. But since my brother became an officer, Heiyan City allocated a house to him, and our whole family moved here. Just wait a moment, I¡¯ll be there soon!¡±
As soon as Zhang Tie moved, his shoulders were tightly clasped by Sneijder. Sneijder's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the warmth just disappeared in an instant. A pair of eyes stared at Zhang Tie like a snake trying to catch its prey. s face.
"Are you familiar with the guards here?"
"Yes, I live here, how can I not be familiar with it!"
"Then let's go in together!"
"Okay" Zhang Tie smiled and said with a relaxed expression, "It's just that the management of the family area here is stricter. You two are strangers. If you want to go in, you have to ask the family members inside to come out to pick up the people. I Just tell the guard and ask my brother to come out and lead us in. Come on, let's go in together"
Zhang Tie took the first step
The three of them walked towards the door of the community together. Every step they took, Zhang Tie's footsteps hit his heart like a hammer. At this time, Zhang Tie felt that his mouth was dry and stars were shining in his eyes. It was like walking on a tightrope. Same, there is a cliff at the foot, and if you are not careful, you will be shattered to pieces. As long as the guard opens his mouth and says that he does not know him, he will be finished. At this time, Zhang Tie is betting that Sneijder and Huck are better than him. Afraid of being exposed, this is Zhang Tie's feeling. Zhang Tie felt that these two people were extremely afraid of the city guards of Black Flame City. When they came here, they encountered two waves of city guards, and Zhang Tie felt that they were afraid of being exposed. The strength of De's arms around him will become stronger, as if he is warning himself not to mess around. Ordinary city guards may not pay attention to these two people, but the officers of Black Flame City are all at least level five. Masters who have been promoted from fighting soldiers. This is the family area and dormitory of active officers. There are soldiers everywhere.There are a lot of military experts inside, and Zhang Tie doesn't believe that these two people dare to break in with him. His chance of survival tonight lies in making these two people believe that he can get the wooden block, but in fact, he can't get the wooden block. In the contradiction of not being able to get it - if they can get it, the two people have achieved their goal, and they will die. They can't get it at all. In despair, they will also die. Only these two people can get it and get it. Only when they are not wavering can they have their own way of survival and their own lives become valuable to them.
These principles were all what Tang De told him when he was working in a grocery store in the past two years - to give those desperate people a glimmer of hope, that is, to give yourself a glimmer of hope and make yourself useful, but don't let others use it up so that they don't need to use it again. Use it, this is how the weak can save their lives when they are in danger.
¡°If these two guys finally believed what they said and let them go with the idea of ??giving it a try, then they would have escaped completely.
He was getting closer and closer to the two rows of city guards standing guard at the gate of the community. Zhang Tie pretended to be calm on the surface, but in fact his feet were almost too weak to move. He was getting closer and closer to those soldiers. ¡
Sixty steps
Fifty steps
Forty steps
Thirty steps
Seeing the three people approaching, some alert soldiers looked over. Finally, when they were about to reach the 20th step, Zhang Tie's shoulders tightened. Sneijder's arm around him had already forcefully turned Zhang Tie's direction. Go away.
"I changed my mind" Sneijder's words made Zhang Tie's heart suddenly break. "The pioneers don't like to deal with these uniformed people. There are some very simple things." It will be very troublesome if these people mess with us, let¡¯s find another way!¡±
"What's the trouble? It's a simple answer!" Zhang Tie said pretending to be puzzled, "Either I go in and take out the things, or we go in and take out the things together, then the transaction is completed"
"Sneijder, I always feel that there is something wrong with this kid" Huck, who was following the two men, said angrily, which made Zhang Tie's heart skip a beat
When turning into an inconspicuous corner on the street, Sneijder gave Zhang Tie a cold look, "Huck, you look at this kid first, I'll go around and take a look at the situation here ¡¡±
Sneijder left, and one of Hacker's big hands fell on Zhang Tie's neck, "Boy, I just think something is wrong with you. Don't play tricks on me. If you are not honest, I will crush your neck"
Zhang Tie nodded quickly and honestly
Ten minutes later, Sneijder, who had disappeared for a while, returned here, his expression becoming even uglier, "Let's go back first"
¡°Let me go, I¡¯ll go in for two minutes and I¡¯ll take out the block of wood for you in a moment!¡±
"Shut up!" Sneijder shouted. As soon as Huck's hand tightened, Zhang Tie felt as if his neck was wrapped in a circle of steel bars. Zhang Tie's face instantly turned purple
"Don't kill him, we'll talk about it when we get back"
¡¡
The three of them returned to the Pioneer Hotel faster than when they came. Along the way, both Huck and Sneijder were silent. The two just looked at Zhang Tie with a violent and vicious look, which made them laugh. Zhang Tie's heart gradually sank to the bottom. Zhang Tie knew that his previous trick had worked and caused the two people's plan to fail. The two were now in conflict, and the time came when they would truly test themselves and decide whether they would live or die. Already - Didn't finish reading?
