The leader of the bandits, Pig Head Rong, had no idea that one of his underlings had been secretly killed. He did not know that he had still underestimated Xu Jiajia. Although he was shocked by Xu Jiajia’s courage and skills, Pig Head Rong still did not expect Xu Jiajia to hide a blade on her body.
Of course, no normal person would have thought of it.
After all, Xu Jiajia’s appearance was too deceiving. No one expected her to know about such a move. In addition, there is a key reason. Hiding a blade in one’s sleeve for ergencies was sothing only certain people walking in the dark would do.
This was simply incompatible with Xu Jiajia’s military background.
Hence, Pig Head Rong was not worried that Xu Jiajia might escape at all. He walked to a stone house, pushed open the thick curtain of the stone house, and quickly entered.
‘l’nere was a steam lamp In tne middle or tne nouse. ‘Ine DOttom or tms 010 steam lamp could be inflated and pressurized. The fuel, kerosene, would be ejected under pressure and then lit on the head of the lamp soaked in thorium sulfate solution, emitting extrely bright light and high temperature.
This was also the wisdom of tomb raiders. The air in the tomb was not circulating, and the oxygen content was very low. In addition, it was filled with all kinds of flammable gasses. So ancient tombs even had chanisms.
Conventional flashlights were not bright enough, and because they used batteries as electricity, they did not need oxygen. Many tis, tomb raiders would suffocate from lack of oxygen without knowing it.
In addition, the tomb was extrely cold and could easily lose temperature. On the other hand, the conventional fire thod might ignite the flammable gas in the tomb and cause an explosion.
Therefore, steam lamps beca the most suitable tool to combine oxygen concentration detection, high brightness, heating, and explosion prevention.
There were two people warming themselves beside the steam lamp. It was still a little cold on the mountain at this ti of the year. In addition, the weather was not good today, causing the cold wind to blow. Even the window of the stone house was covered with a thick blanket, yet it was still a little unbearable.
After all, these thick blankets were only used to block the light, and the heat function of the stone house was not very good to begin with. Although light could not pass through the cracks in the stones, the wind could.
Pig Head Rong also sat down beside the steam lamp and casually plucked a maple leaf from his shoulder.
This mountain was called Maple Ridge. As the na suggested, there were many maple trees on the mountain. It was not the season for the maple leaves to turn red. The maple leaves were falling like rain under the mountain wind. It was normal for a few to stick to one’s body. He crushed the maple leaf and patted the crumbs on his hand. Before Pig Head Rong could speak, a strange voice sounded first.
“Why don’t we just kill that chick?”
The person who spoke was a tall man who had wrapped himself up like a bear. His dark skin was very conspicuous in this stone house.
“Why should we kill her?” Pig Head Rong asked.
“She’s Xu Kui’s daughter.” A trace of hatred appeared on Black Wolf’s face.
“Idiot.” Pig Head Rong looked at Black Wolf in disdain. Could it be that skin color really determines intelligence?
“What did you say!” Black Wolf jumped up irritably.
“If you dare to howl at the top of your lungs again, I’ll imdiately dig a pit and bury you. I’ll let you experience my ancestral skills.” Pig Head Rong glanced coldly at Black Wolf. If Charles was here, he would still be afraid, but he was naturally not afraid of Black Wolf alone.
“You…” Black Wolf’s black face was about to turn white from anger. He pointed at Pig Head Rong, but unfortunately, his language talent limited his performance. He didn’t say anything for a long ti.
“Alright.” A man as thin as a bamboo pole beside him tried to smooth things over. “Boss is right. We’re digging for treasures, we’re not those idiots who fight and kill every day outside.” As he took advantage of the fact that Black Wolf did not understand, he pulled Black Wolf to sit down again with a comforting expression. He could not be bothered with the sulking Black Wolf. He leaned in front of Pig Head Rong. “Boss, do you think that strear will co?”
“What ti is it?” Pig Head Rong could not be bothered with Black Wolf. If not for the fact that the white-skinned man was worried that he would pocket the Warring States Golden Foil and insisted that Pig Head Rong bring Black Wolf with him, he would have kicked this fool down the mountain 80 years ago.
“It’s five past ten.” The thin bamboo pole was the one who had participated in the kidnapping of Xu Jiajia and almost had his balls burst. His nickna was Skinny Monkey. He really lived up to his na.
“Has there been any news from Construction West Road subway station?” Pig Head Rong asked with a frown.
Before this operation, his n had been divided into two waves. Four of his five lackeys had been brought to Maple Ridge to kidnap Xu Jiajia and Black Wolf. The remaining underling was in charge of staying with the white-skinned man and keeping an eye on Su Yun at the subway station.
The main thing was to see if the other party would call the police.
“Big Dog has already arrived at the entrance of Construction West Road subway station, but he didn’t find that kid,” Skinny Monkey replied. His brother who was spying on Construction West Road was nicknad Big Dog.
Pig Head Rong looked surprised. He instructed, “Where’s that girl’s phone? Call that strear and ask where he is.”
Skinny Monkey took out Xu Jiajia’s phone from his pocket and quickly installed the electric panel. He started to turn it on and dial. As he pressed the speaker button, a notification sounded. “The number you have dialed is switched off..
