Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 588: Assembly Action

After saying all this loudly, Yu Dingcheng's eyes were wide open with anger, and sweat mixed with blood kept dripping down his cheeks. He looked a little scary.

The man with the watermelon head winked, signaling the people next to him to take action.

I waved my hand to stop him.

"Brother Yu, let's not discuss whether there is a curse or not. I'm just asking you, where is the Jiang family's headquarters hidden? You must know something."

"Yes! I know, but if I tell you, will you let me go tonight? Can you let my family go?"

"Uncle Xu just said that as long as you are willing to tell me, not only will I let you go, but I will also arrange for your whole family to go abroad. You don't have to worry about retaliation from the Jiang family in the future."

Yu Dingcheng was beaten black and blue. He looked at me and said, "Brother, I'm not stupid. I know how people like them behave. I need your personal promise. I want you to swear."

I raised my hand without hesitation.

"I swear, as long as you tell me, the grudge between us will be settled, and I will never cause you any trouble again. If I, Xiang Yunfeng, break my promise, I will die with my body torn into pieces."

He closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds.

"In the mountains."

"In the mountains? Which mountain?" I asked quickly.

"That mountain has no name. You must first find the Qingxi Brick and Tile Factory. From the factory, head north. There's a dirt road. Follow it through the woods and up the mountain. You'll see a large yard. That's it."

"really?"

"My life is in your hands. I dare not lie to you."

"Have you ever looked inside?"

I suddenly began to doubt the truthfulness of his words.

Yu Dingcheng shook his head. "About five years ago, I followed a man named Jiang Ping there. I didn't dare go in then. That courtyard should be the Jiang family mansion."

"Who is Jiang Ping?"

"He was a nephew of Miss Jiang's third uncle. He's dead. That's all I know."

Watermelon Head suddenly said, "Okay, you can go now."

Yu Dingcheng reacted and roared, "You don't keep your word!

"I've told you everything I know!"

"You just promised me! You swore! You promised me!" He was extremely excited and yelled at me again.

I looked up at the watermelon head.

The watermelon-headed man glanced at me, then looked at Yu Dingcheng and explained, "He promised you, and Godfather promised you, but I never promised to let you leave alive."

I didn't say anything and pushed the door open and went out.

After about five minutes, Watermelon Head and his men came out. The men washed his hands with a bottle of water.

Watermelon Head said, "He saw Godfather's face. There's no way he can leave alive."

"His family has nothing to do with this matter," I reminded him.

"That's something we'll have to investigate to find out. Don't pretend to be a good person. From the moment you told my godfather, you knew the consequences better than anyone else."

I avoided his gaze.

"I mean, I'm a little anxious. We haven't verified the authenticity of the news yet."

The watermelon-headed man looked into the darkness ahead and said, "It's simple. Just take a look and you'll know."

"That might alert the enemy. Even if you take a step back, haven't you considered what if there's an ambush there?"

The watermelon-headed man squinted at me for two seconds and said seriously, "You have to understand, we're investigating them, and they're also investigating us. If we wait a second longer, the situation might change. The first to strike is stronger, and the last to strike will suffer. They're just a wealthy family. Even if they're ambushing us, what can they do?"

"Adong, go get some people. Find fifty skilled men and gather them at twelve o'clock."

"Understood, carry a knife or a gun."

"Take them all."

"it is good."

.....

An hour later, at midnight.

Datang Labor Market, North Gate.

It is very busy here during the day, but it is exceptionally quiet at this time.

The reason for the silence is not the absence of people.

someone.

Four Jinbei cars, three SUVs, and an old Peugeot, and dozens of people with solemn expressions formed two rows around the station.

Because no one was talking, it seemed so quiet.

"Are all the people here?"

"It's all ready."

"boarding."

Everyone immediately got into their cars, and with the sound of doors closing, all the cars turned on their hazard lights.

"Get in the car!" The guy with the watermelon hair shouted at me as he sat in the passenger seat of the Peugeot.

My feet couldn't move, as if they were welded together. I was sweating all over, my heart was beating faster, and my right eye was twitching violently.

I suddenly had a bad feeling.

I was afraid, but I couldn't describe why.

"What did your godfather say?"

"What else can I say!"

"If this is really the Jiang family's headquarters, we'll wipe them out! How dare they mess with us? Who do they think they are?"

"No, I don't think this is right. Give me five minutes and I'll make a call."

Without waiting for Watermelon Head's consent, I ran to the side.

"Answer it, I must answer it..." I said to myself.

The next second, the call was suddenly connected.

"Yunfeng."

"Boss, how did you know it was me? I just changed my phone number."

"Of course I know it's you. Have you settled down?"

"I've settled down! Boss, I wasn't planning on contacting you for the next two days! But it's an emergency right now! Do you remember the taxi driver named Yu Dingcheng who sold us the silver bottle? Xu Tongshan found the person we couldn't find in just one day! He even told us the location of the Jiang family mansion! Watermelon Head has gathered people and is heading there! I want to go too!"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Boss, there are more than sixty of us! But I have a bad feeling!"

"What premonition?"

"Can't tell."

"Yunfeng, where is that place located?"

"...it's on the mountain north of the Qingxi Brick and Tile Factory? There's a big yard there, boss. We've been running around all over Qiandao Lake for so long, and I've never heard of a Qingxi Brick and Tile Factory!"

"Think about it, boss. Who are the Jiang family members? They're all incredibly wealthy! The wealth their family has accumulated couldn't be spent in five generations! Why would the Jiang family compound be built on a barren mountain with no name? Transportation aside, even basic water and electricity are probably inconvenient up there."

"Purity, light, power, wisdom, the Wisdom Religion is Manichaeism. Watermelon Head has a firm belief in their religion."

"The silver bottle may represent disaster and curse, but to him, it is a lost holy object and his long-held belief. He is angry because he feels his faith has been challenged."

"Okay Yunfeng, I was going to wait a little longer, but it looks like we're going to go earlier. You go with them."

"I'm going with them? Look, I don't feel well. You don't know, my right eyelid is twitching so badly right now."

"You have to go even if you don't feel well. Xu Tongshan sent his godson. You are my apprentice, and as the parties involved, there is no reason for us not to go. But be careful. Report to me at any time if there is an emergency."

After finishing the call with the leader, I got into the Peugeot. In addition to the man with the watermelon head and the driver, there was also a man in his thirties who was chewing betel nut. He was sitting in the back seat like me. He had also participated in interrogating Yu Dingcheng. He had met Xu Tongshan, so he must be one of the core members of the Zhuji Gang.

"Just call me Adong, would you like one?"

"Thanks, I don't want to eat."

"People in Zhenhai are familiar with Qiandao Lake. Should we contact Li Kangyang and ask him where the Qingxi Brick and Tile Factory is located?" I suggested to the guy with the watermelon head sitting in the passenger seat.

"We're in a hurry. Ask on the way. Drive."

The driver immediately stepped on the accelerator.

I glanced at the rearview mirror and saw the convoy of cars following closely behind me in a single line.

The watermelon-headed man rubbed his temples and said without turning his head, "You are such a coward. You haven't even seen the other party and you are so scared. What are you afraid of when there are so many of us brothers?"

"I'm not scared, I just have a bad feeling."

"Are you not afraid? I see you're about to piss your pants. In the old days, a coward like you would be subject to military court according to the law."

"I hope my hunch is wrong."

"What did your master say?"

"Nothing, just let me go with you."

"Your master is quite knowledgeable about the rules. Don't worry, if they really have an ambush, we don't need you to charge forward. Just find a place to hide."

After saying this, Watermelon Head closed his eyes and stopped looking at me.

Adong smiled at me, rolled down the car window, and spat out the betel nut in his mouth.
