Chapter 1543 Trapped
The atmosphere in the basement was a bit dull, and with so many people shouting here, Xia Jian felt a little dizzy after just a while.
Everyone who came to this place was in high spirits. Even if they lost money, wouldn't they be called gamblers who lost money like crazy? Therefore, the sudden appearance of Xia Jian and Lu Ying did not attract the attention of these people.
After taking away a bag of money in front of Kofi, it seemed much less, but this did not affect him from continuing to play. It was just that the African man's eyes began to become dishonest.
Lu Ying held her bag and stepped back gently. Xia Jian couldn't help but increase the strength of the steel pipe on Kofi's waist. Xia Jian found that among the group of people sitting here, there were probably not many people who knew English.
So he whispered to Kofi in English: "The money we took is what you should return to others, so you don't have to feel bad. Keep playing your cards, and I wish you good luck tonight."
When Xia Jian saw that Lu Ying had gone up the stairs with her bag, it was time for him to leave, but it happened at this time. He saw a burly man coming down the stairs, and he took a look
Lu Ying saw Lu Ying holding a bag in her hand, so she asked loudly: "Who are you? Why did you leave the show midway?"
Xia Jian was stunned. They had overlooked a link. It turned out that this place had a private rule that no one was allowed to leave with money in the middle. The man shouted loudly, and everyone in the casino came to their senses.
Everyone looked towards Lu Ying. Suddenly, another woman sitting next to Kofi shouted: "Don't let her go! They are here to steal money."
This sound undoubtedly caused a person to be lost in the crowd. Suddenly, three or four sturdy men emerged from the crowd and pounced on Lu Ying like wolves. Ji Ying was attacked from both sides, and the situation was very bad.
, Xia Jian didn't dare to neglect, he roared and rushed out from the crowd like a fierce beast.
Lu Ying was not out to play. She realized that something was wrong. She rounded the big bag in her hand and hit the knee of the man standing above her. The stairs were low and the man couldn't avoid it. Lu Ying actually hit his knee with the bag.
fell down.
Lu Ying's body flashed lightly, and she had already run around the man who rolled down and ran to the top. However, several men behind him shouted and chased after him closely.
Xia Jian's sudden appearance took everyone by surprise. These crazy gamblers never expected that someone could sneak into such a tight place.
It was too late, but it was so fast that Xia Jian rushed to the top of the stairs in a few steps. The last man running at the end was kicked by Xia Jian and crawled under the corner before he could even step onto the stairs.
A terrible scene happened. Three or four thug-like people suddenly appeared behind Xia Jian. In such a small space, once Xia Jian was forced to the stairs, even if he had great abilities, he could not use them at the moment.
Not open.
"Let them go up!" Xia Jian was so anxious that he shouted towards the stairs.
Because Lu Ying had already reached the top, Xia Jian was afraid that she would block the stairs. If these people couldn't get up, he wouldn't be able to get up either. He would still be the one to die after all.
Lu Ying is a very smart woman. When Xia Jian shouted, she immediately understood. As soon as she came up, she rushed towards the gate of the small courtyard. There was a man standing in the darkness at the gate, and he shouted loudly: "
Who is it?"
As soon as someone's voice fell, Lu Ying had already rushed up. Of course, the person who could be invited here to see the home nursery was certainly not weak. Soon this person and Lu Ying were fighting together.
The people who chased Lu Ying were all looking at money, so they ignored Xia Jian's presence for a while. In this way, Xia Jian escaped from the basement in a few steps.
At this time, Lu Ying was in critical condition and was surrounded by four big men. It could be said that she could be knocked down at any time. With the appearance of Xia Jian, the situation on the field suddenly changed.
After a few moves, two people were already lying on the ground. When the remaining two people saw how powerful Xia Jian and Lu Ying were, they immediately stopped and started calling other accomplices in the orchard. Xia Jian took a look and pulled Lu Ying
He ran out of the small courtyard in a few steps.
They did not dare to walk through the gate, but groped towards the place where they came in. Soon there was a noisy voice behind them, and it felt like there were quite a lot of people.
Fortunately, the orchard is very large and there are many fruit trees inside. Xia Jian and Lu Ying took advantage of the cover of the fruit trees and quickly arrived under the wall. However, in panic, they mistakenly entered in the wrong direction and wanted to find a way to cut through the orchard.
The gap in the barbed wire fence is already making it even more difficult.
In the large orchard, it felt like there were ten or twenty people responding to each other looking for them. Xia Jian snatched the backpack from Lu Ying's hand, put it on his shoulder and said, "I'm going to lure these people away. Hurry up."
Look for opportunities to run away, this matter must not get you involved."
"It's already too late, so don't worry about it anymore. Let's think of a way to see how we can get out. This is the real thing." Lu Ying laughed in the dark and said very calmly.
Xia Jian thought about it carefully and realized that Lu Ying was right. In the current situation, with the combined strength of the two of them, they might be able to open a way out, but it would be hard to tell if they were fighting alone.
What should we do? Once it falls into the hands of these people, the end will be tragic. Xia Jian has never experienced it, so he just thought about it casually. The ending will not be easy. The key is that he also invited Lu Ying to come.
.
When I came in just now, I was a little careless about which pliers I should carry on my back after using them, ready to use them at any time. But for the sake of convenience, they randomly placed them on an apple tree. Now it will be a big trouble to find them.
.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer to them, and it felt like this group of people should be searching the orchard like a carpet. If this was the case, they would soon find them.
Looking at the barbed wire on the fence, Xia Jian was really helpless. He wished he could turn into a little bird at this time and lead the Orioles to spread their wings and fly high.
"Mr. Xia! This place is not safe. Let's move to another place!" Lu Ying whispered to Xia Jian in the dark.
Xia Jian said in a low voice: "There is no safe place here now. I really regret getting you involved. How about we just hand over the money? Maybe they can let us both go."
Xia Jian was not stupid. He just said this because he wanted to stabilize Lu Ying's mood. After all, she was a woman. It was strange that she wasn't nervous when encountering such a big thing.
"Oh! Stop making trouble. Do you think I am a three-year-old child? I can tell you that this woman has undergone strict training and does not care about this matter. Since I promised to help you, I will
Everything has nothing to do with you. So you don't have any mental burden. The most important issue now is, just listen to me." Lu Ying pushed Xia Jian and said in a low voice.
Xia Jian couldn't help but steal a look at Lu Ying. He still looked down on this woman.
"Isn't there a saying that it's dark under the lamp? Let's sneak outside the small courtyard now. They will never think that we will come back. On the contrary, they should search the place where we are staying soon." Lu Ying
Analyzed to Xia Jian in a low voice.
That's right! Why didn't I think of this? Xia Jian came to his senses and without saying a word, he pulled Lu Ying and ran towards the small courtyard. In fact, they had just left, and more than a dozen people were holding beating weapons in their hands.
Their belongings were searched and they found the place where they had stayed.
It was quiet in the small courtyard, and even the light from the basement disappeared. It seemed that after the two of them made a fuss, the group of gamblers should have dispersed.
Xia Jian and Lu Ying squatted outside the wall of the small courtyard, quietly waiting for the changes in the orchard. They could only stop quietly and watch the actions of these people before making a decision.
"Fuck you! This couple of bitches are going to die. I've almost searched the orchard, but there's no sign of them." Following the sound of a man cursing, a dozen black figures walked towards the small courtyard.
.
"Brother! They should have been prepared and returned from the original route. You can tell by looking at the gap in the wall," another voice continued.
The courtyard door opened with a creak, and the person who had just been there sighed and said, "It's more than one million! This is the first time that something like this has happened here. You said that once word of this gets out, who dares to come?"
Where are we?"
"Brother! We are not entirely to blame for this. Which African guy knows best, you said that there is a big table of people, why are you only looking for him, and it seems that people take money for good reasons and don't want more. What does this mean?
"Another voice analyzed.
"Yes, brother! This matter should be the enemy of the African guy. Instead of taking any responsibility for him, we want to settle accounts with him. Ask him why this man and woman can find him?" A hoarse voice said with a smile.
The courtyard was quiet for a while, and the man who was called Big Brother coughed twice and said: "We can only blame the African guy for this matter, but the two people who looked at the gate of the courtyard must be punished, otherwise
The brothers are not convinced"
"Those two boys already knew they were wrong, and they are still looking for people everywhere in the orchard." Another man with a hoarse voice said.
The voices in the small courtyard were quiet for a while. One of the elder brothers took a deep breath and said: "It's getting late, everyone, please evacuate! Lock this damn place, and everyone will wait for my call in three days before coming out to do anything."
As soon as the man finished speaking, more than a dozen black shadows gradually disappeared with the sound of chaotic footsteps.
Lu Ying let out a long breath and said: "We can now walk out from the gate."
"No! Don't be careless. If what they just performed for us was a play, we would be in big trouble. Not only can we not go through the gate, but we can't go back from where we just came in." Xia Jian
He said in a very firm tone.
Lu Ying was stunned and then asked: "Then where are we going to get out? If it is like what you said, they will stay until dawn. At that time, it will be difficult for us to get out. Besides, this can't be done
Call the police"
"Yeah! You're right. Now our conflict has shifted direction. It used to be Kofi, the bastard, but now it's an underground casino. This group of people is even more difficult to deal with, so we must not face them anymore.
We must leave here before dawn." Xia Jian said and stood up quietly. He moved his legs, which were a little numb from squatting.
Lu Ying chuckled and asked in a low voice: "It seems you have thought of a solution?"
"It's more than one o'clock now. After two o'clock, let's go find a pair of pliers, then go up the wall from the west end of the orchard, then cut a gap and feel out from there," Xia Jian said with a long exit.
Take a breath.
