rebirth against the times

Bai Shuo was originally surprised as to why the people in La'an Town chose to gather in such a remote place and went to great lengths to build a village. Now that he knew that there was a more open road behind the mountains to the west, he suddenly understood.

The old farmer was very apologetic and explained to Bai Shuo and others that he had not been here for half a year and was unaware of the changes that had taken place here.

When Cao An found out, he complained repeatedly. If he had known about this situation earlier, he would have saved much more effort by driving along the national highway and going straight to the village from the west.

At this time, a man from La'an who was under guard said: "There are also guards along the road to the west. If you drive there, you will probably be stopped a few kilometers away from the village."

Bai Shuo did not blame the old farmer. On the contrary, he felt that coming from Hutou Ridge was a very wise choice. Now they had the opportunity to approach the village without anyone noticing.

Bai Shuo carefully interrogated the four people about the situation in the stockade. Two of the four people had been to the stockade. Although they had not met Man Lin's father, they still had a relatively clear understanding of the situation in the stockade.

Based on the descriptions of the two people, Bai Shuo roughly knew that the entire village was located in a mountain valley. The two large houses in the middle of the village should be the main gathering places, and the houses with many small rooms around them were the residences of everyone. Man Lin

My father should also be placed here. In addition, there are some houses at the foot of the mountain, which are used as storage places for materials. There is a wide dam to the west through the stockade, and a 2-meter-wide road was specially built beside the dam.

The earth and stone road winds down and goes directly to the mountain stream. After reaching the mountain stream, the terrain becomes open, and there is a dirt road that can be used by off-road vehicles that leads directly to the outside of the mountain and connects to the national highway...

After resting for a night, after tying the four people tightly in the house, Bai Shuo led everyone to search for the village. As for the old farmer's task of leading the way, he had basically completed it, and the old farmer himself was not willing to participate in the update.

Because of the complicated matter, Bai Shuo gave the old farmer the promised reward and asked the old farmer to return to Laliang Town by himself. However, he asked the old farmer to go to the hotel and inform Zhong Pengcheng and others who stayed there about the situation.

.Because Bai Shuo discovered that since he approached Madman Valley, there was no cell phone signal, which meant that he had lost contact with Zhong Pengcheng and the others all night.

Walking along the ridge, half an hour later, they found traces of an artificial building between two low hills. Bai Shuo led everyone to sneak closer carefully, and waited until they had bypassed the hills before

I discovered that a large area of ​​brick-and-wood structure houses had been built in the mountain col. The overall situation was similar to what I knew before. Except for the two larger houses in the middle, there were some small houses around it, about a dozen of them.

The figures were shaking. Although we couldn't see them completely, we could tell that there were quite a few people among them. Not only was there no direct road built on this side of the mountain pass, but some obstacles were also set up. It was obvious that there was no intention to pass through here. Between the obstacles

There were three or two people standing there chatting and looking outside from time to time. Bai Shuo estimated that people in the village should use the west as their entrance and exit, so there were only some guards arranged here.

In addition, there were bursts of motor roaring coming from somewhere near the hill in the village, which was extremely loud in this quiet mountain. Zhao Yong immediately judged that it was the sound of a diesel generator. It seemed that these people were

What happens in this mountain is not simple.

After going around the hills on both sides and observing from a high position, he basically figured out the structure of the entire stockade. Bai Shuo decided to return to Hutou Ridge first, come back later in the evening, and sneak into the stockade at night.

Back at Hutou Ridge, the four of them were still tied up. Cao An checked the ropes again, and after letting the four of them eat something, he further understood some unclear situations. Then everyone was divided into

Teams of two took turns to look out and observe the situation, while the others rested in place to recuperate and prepare for the night's action.

In the evening, everyone waited until it got dark before heading towards the stockade again. When they arrived outside the stockade, they found that the inside of the stockade was brightly lit. In addition to bonfires and torches burning outside, electric lights were obviously burning in many houses.

.

Bai Shuo, Anna, and Niu Er's team went in first to explore the way, while Cao An and Zhao Yong protected Man Lin and followed behind.

Anna took advantage of the cover of the night and moved over like a ghost to easily get rid of the two guards at the intersection. Niu Er and Bai Shuo followed closely and removed the obstacles, clearing the way for Cao An and the others behind them.

Under the leadership of Anna, Bai Shuo and others approached the center of the village very smoothly and did not encounter any obstacles along the way. When they reached the center of the village, Bai Shuo and the others took refuge in a natural trench and quietly

After observing, I discovered that most of the people in the village were concentrated here.

About ten meters away from Bai Shuo and the others, three bonfires were lit in the open space in the center of the village. About ten people were sitting around the bonfires, roasting meat and drinking wine. There were two large bonfires on the north and south sides of the open space.

The house, said to be a house, is actually a large shed of one hundred square meters made of stone and wood. In addition to the roof, the house only has three walls made of stone and earth. The two houses face each other and are close to the bonfire in the center.

But there was no obstruction, so Bai Shuo and the others could directly see the general situation inside the house from their position.

At this time, although the lights were on in the south room, it was relatively quiet. One or two people came and went from time to time. However, the big room in the north was already full of people, sitting in rows across the middle pillar.

At both ends, there were forty or fifty people in the dark area. It seemed that a dinner party was being held, and from time to time there was a burst of laughter.

"My dad, my dad is inside...!" Man Lin and Cao An also followed. Man Lin clearly recognized that one of the people in the house was her father. Bai Shuo quickly covered Man Lin's mouth and signaled her

Be quiet, and then quietly ask about the situation.

It turned out that the person in the front row at the back of the room was Manlin's father. At this time, he was sitting at a small table eating with a calm expression, showing no emotion.

"It seems that your dad is not in any danger for the time being..." Cao An said softly to Man Lin.

"You are a guest today, but you may be a prisoner tomorrow. You can see that many people inside are eating, drinking and having fun, but Manlin's father is expressionless, obviously not very happy. And there are some people inside who have very unhappy expressions.

Naturally, there is even a sullen look, which shows that the joyful singing and laughter we see are just superficial." Bai Shuo analyzed.

Suddenly a roar came from the west, and soon I saw a few lights shaking in the distance. It was obvious that a car was approaching. This also confirmed the previous statement that there was a road from the west leading directly to the outside. But until the sound of the car engine

After a pause, the lights went out, and Bai Shuo and the others could not see the vehicle. It was obviously parked at the flat dam to the west.

At this time, several people came out of the big house and stood eagerly looking in the direction of the vehicle. After being identified by Manlin, one of them was the leader of the La'an force, and the other was Zhou Qiang's father Zhou Huairen. Soon there were five or six people

People walked out of the village from the west and went straight to the outside of the house. Bai Shuo checked carefully and found that there were Westerners among the people. The people on both sides exchanged greetings, but did not enter the bustling place to the north.

But he was walking towards the big house on the south side. At this time, two women and one man also walked out of the south house and greeted them enthusiastically. The round figure at the head was a fat man.

After seeing the three people clearly, Bai Shuo's eyes narrowed and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Isn't this..." Cao An almost shouted in surprise, and then immediately lowered his voice and said, "Isn't this the fat man named Xie Ning?"

"And those two vixens..." Manlin said through gritted teeth. At this time, in her eyes, this Xie Ning must be the enemy who participated in dealing with his father.

Cao An had never seen Xiao Min and Xiao Na before. When he saw the two people's protruding figures in the night under the light of the lights, he couldn't help but snickered: "Leave these two beauties to me in a moment."

, I must help sister Manlin take revenge."

Bai Shuo slapped Cao An hard on the head and cursed angrily: "You damn fat guy doesn't even look at what's going on here, he's still thinking about those unsightly things. I'm telling you, these two women are probably worse than each other."

Those 'ghosts' in Madman's Valley are so powerful, I don't even know how they died if they accidentally hit them."

Cao An rubbed his head and whispered: "If there is such a ghost in Madman Valley, I would rather stay there..."

Just as those people were preparing to enter the south room under the guidance of Xie Ning, two people ran out of the north room, pointed at each other and began to curse. However, because they were too far away, the curses came very fast, and they were mixed with the local people.

In dialect, Bai Shuo and the others couldn't understand what was being said. Fortunately, after Man Lin's explanation, they found out that these two people were also the leaders of two villages. They were scolding each other for being dishonest and forcing them to stay here for no reason.

Send them back as soon as possible.

Zhou Huairen stepped forward to comfort the two of them, but the two did not seem to appreciate it, and instead the quarrel became more serious. At this time, some people in the north room also went out to watch the excitement and talked about it. Manlin's father also

in it.

When he saw someone standing up for him, one of them stepped forward and pulled the leader of La'an by the lapel. He became very excited and cursed even louder.

Suddenly, a foreigner rushed up, opened La'an's head, and pushed the yelling man away. Just as the man was about to step forward again, the foreigner suddenly took out a gun and shot him with his hand.

The deafening gunfire made everyone quiet down. The man who yelled covered his chest with his hands, and a stream of blood came out from between his fingers, and then he collapsed suddenly.

Manlin's father was extremely angry when he saw this. He immediately rushed forward to support the man and prepared to argue with him. The foreigner actually took another step forward and put his gun directly against Manlin's father's forehead...
