Chapter 448 Her Secret 1 Tell me the truth, are you still...

Everything has two sides, such as the reform and opening up. The good side is that society has become more active, but the bad side is now.

Yao Zhizhi is actually not unfamiliar with highway robbery. At the end of the world, she once became a target of robbery because of her overly kind appearance.

Of course, it’s just a target, and the opponent’s success rate is zero.

Even in the end times, she didn't become a lamb to be slaughtered, let alone now.

However, Qi Changxiao didn't know her true ability. As a man, protecting his wife was his instinct. He subconsciously turned around and pulled her behind him, like an eagle protecting its nest.

Unexpectedly, the robber had a gun in his hand, which was an unexpected constraint. Qi Changxiao tightened Yao Zhizhi's hand, signaling her not to worry and wait for him to think of a solution.

Yao Zhizhi felt a little relieved. Although she didn't like being treated as someone who needed to be protected, if a man only thought about protecting himself or escaping when facing danger, what was the point of living?

A responsible man should stand up. Whether he can repel the enemy or not is not important.

In life, attitude is often more important than ability.

Yao Zhizhi also held his hand tightly. She was not afraid. When she went to Hong Kong to help her third brother and sister-in-law hold their wedding, her third brother gave her two guns. She kept them in the system space. If things really didn't work, she could take them out and use them.

The only worry is how to explain to the police the source of the gun.

In short, when your life is hanging by a thread, you should prioritize survival and put everything else aside.

She turned slightly sideways, pretending to take money from the inner pocket of her coat, but in fact she had already opened the system space and was ready to draw her gun.

At this moment, the third robber appeared behind them, and the back of Yao Zhizhi's head was suddenly pointed at by the black muzzle of a gun.

A man's sinister and threatening voice rang out from behind him: "Don't move, or I'll shoot you!"

Yao Zhizhi already had her pistol in her hand. She maintained the posture of taking out money and said calmly, "Killing me wouldn't be worth it. To be honest, I just bought a courtyard house a few days ago. I paid in full for 15,000 yuan."

The words were indeed very tempting. The three robbers exchanged glances and said, "Sure, 30,000 to redeem your life!"

"No problem, just let him go." Yao Zhizhi looked at the robber opposite with a smile: "If you don't believe me, you can go ask around to see if I'm a wealthy person."

"No, I'll stay, and you let my wife go back to collect money!" Qi Changxiao was not willing to let his wife stay and face the crisis, so he immediately spoke out to stop them.

Yao Zhizhi, however, persuaded the robbers: "Don't listen to him! If I were you, I would let the man go and keep the woman as a hostage. She's just a woman, how can she rebel? On the other hand, this man in front of you is so big that even if the three of you attack together, you may not be able to subdue him in the first time. Keeping him here is a hidden danger."

"Wife!" Qi Changxiao was anxious. This silly woman, why did she do this? He was no longer the sick and dying man who needed her care. He didn't want to go back alone and let his wife take the risk. As a woman, even if she had good skills, she would have little chance of winning against three armed robbers.

He refused and said he didn't want to leave no matter what. However, the three robbers had already made an agreement and pulled him away. They pointed three guns at Yao Zhizhi and threatened, "Hurry up and leave, you lover! If you don't want to see your wife's life in danger, go back and raise money."

Another robber also threatened: "Hurry up and leave, or I will shoot your wife! Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, get off at Chaoyangmen bus stop, I will ride a motorcycle and wait for you there."

Qi Changxiao was very angry. Even though he knew that Yao Zhizhi was thinking about his safety, he was still angry. She was too reckless and willful, and didn't think about how worried he would be and how he would be unable to sleep at night if he went back like this.

Did she think of him as a heartless, cold-blooded animal?

She's still laughing. What is she laughing at? Hey, wait! Wait!

As expected, this man easily loses his mind when he gets anxious and angry. He looked at his wife's calm smile, seemed to understand something, and quickly distanced himself: "Okay, I'll go back and raise the money. Tomorrow at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, hand over the money and the person. Don't hurt my wife! Otherwise, you won't get a penny!"

Qi Changxiao just went back like that. Old Yao was quite surprised to see him come back so late, and quickly asked, "Why is the bathhouse crowded today? Hey, where's Zhizhi?"

Seeing that the light was still on in the child's study, Qi Changxiao quickly made a hushing gesture and pulled Lao Yao to the corner to talk.

After a moment, Yao Jingzong widened his eyes and stared at Qi Changxiao in disbelief: "You came back just like that?"

Qi Changxiao clenched his fists. "I have to come back. If Zhizhi and I don't come back, you and the two children will definitely be worried. Dad, listen to me, I'm going to take Yiyi to chase Zhizhi right now. When the children ask you, just say that Zhizhi and I have to go to school for a meeting. Let them sleep first and don't need to wait for us. Tomorrow morning, you should still send the children to school as usual, and then call the police. The meeting place is at Chaoyangmen Bus Station, and the time is 3 pm. I'm leaving, Dad. I'm leaving the children in your hands!"

Old Yao was extremely anxious, but his son-in-law was right. It would be bad if he lost his composure at this time.

Besides, there are two children at home. If they are frightened at such a young age, it may leave a lifelong shadow.

He could only suppress his heartache and worry as he urged, "You must come back, both of you, not one less, come back alive!"

Qi Changxiao understood, his eyes reddening. He solemnly promised the excited old soldier in front of him: "Of course, I guarantee it with my life!"

"Go quickly!" Yao Jingzong did not dare to delay. He immediately drove away the moisture in his eyes, forced a smile, and went to accompany the child to study.

Qi Changxiao walked to the stove, looked at Yiyi who was dozing in front of the stove, leaned over and let her hold her arms around him, then turned and disappeared into the night.

*

As soon as Qi Changxiao left, Yao Zhizhi let go of the gun. This was a downtown area, and it would be difficult to explain if she fired a gun. She could just be charged with excessive self-defense and it would be over. It would be better to wait until they were out of the city before making a decision.

So she found a folding dagger from the system space and hid it in her sleeve. The three robbers thought she was taking out money, so they grabbed her arm and saw a stack of banknotes. They were so happy that they immediately snatched it away.

I counted them and found there were more than three hundred. He was indeed a rich man.

The robbers immediately tied Yao Zhizhi's hands and took her to the back of a van.

This type of vehicle is very common and is generally used to transport goods to supply and marketing cooperatives. You can see it every day when going to and from school.

Unexpectedly, it was used by the robbers as a means of transport to transfer hostages.

She was a smart person. When she saw the three men surrounding her, she guessed what they were thinking.

She smiled and said, "Do you really believe my man is gone? To tell you the truth, he's a retired soldier and is very good at tracking you. He's already gone around the alley we just went through, found your car, and punctured your tire. If you don't believe me, go down and see if the tire is leaking."

Of course, this was fabricated by Yao Zhizhi. Qi Changxiao was not a retired soldier, and it was impossible for him to have the foresight to know that the truck parked on the side of the road belonged to robbers.

However, what she said is very likely to come true. If someone really tampered with the tires, the car would have an accident as soon as it was driven.

The three robbers exchanged glances, two of them got out to check the car and search for the troublesome "veteran soldier", while the other stayed in the car to watch the hostages.

The one who stayed behind was an old pervert. When he saw such a beautiful young wife, he felt it would be a shame not to take advantage of her.

The man bared his stinky, smoke-yellow teeth and squatted in front of Yao Zhizhi with a smile, but Yao Zhizhi had already secretly cut the hemp rope behind him.

By the time the yellow-toothed man pounced on her and tried to act like a hooligan, she had already broken free from the hemp rope and stabbed the man in the thigh with a knife.

The intense pain made the man scream. He cursed and wanted to fight back, but he was in so much pain that he couldn't move. He could only watch the woman slip away from him.

When the two robbers outside heard the noise and rushed in, Yao Zhizhi was gone.

The robbers were horrified, thinking that the woman's helpers had arrived, so they immediately left one person in the car to help bandage the wound, while the other rushed into the cab to leave this dangerous place first.

In the darkness of the night, Yao Zhizhi, lying on the roof of the carriage, was just at ease, waiting to take action halfway.

In the middle of the night, the car left the city and stopped on a hill near Fangshan.

The driver quickly got out, opened the trunk and checked the injuries of the injured.

Yao Zhizhi tiptoed out of the car, bought a steel needle from the system store, and stabbed the car tire quickly and accurately.

It is easier to create a new balance if you pierce all four, and the car is easier to control, so just pierce one will be enough.

After the stabbing, she rolled on the ground and hid in the pile of dry grass next to her.

The robber in the carriage screamed like a pig being slaughtered, and his accomplice was using the medicine kit prepared in the cab to sew up his wounds. After they were done, the three of them discussed and decided that they needed to rest for two days before taking revenge on the couple. Tonight they could only admit defeat and go to their old nest in the countryside to take a break.

In the darkness of the night, the car had just driven a short distance when it heard the harsh sound of brakes.

The out-of-control car had no time to adjust its direction and crashed into the cliff next to it.

The flames of the explosion shot up into the sky. Yao Zhizhi walked over leisurely and stayed at the scene until the flames died down and the snowflakes fell. Then she bought a bundle of ropes and a mountaineering pickaxe from the system store, went down to the bottom of the cliff, and checked the situation of the three beasts.

When she descended to the middle of the cliff, the smell of burnt flesh was pungent enough to make her nose choke. The three beasts were most likely burned to death, but she did not dare to be careless. She had to see it with her own eyes to feel at ease.

Landing at the bottom of the cliff, she took out her flashlight and shone it on the wreckage at the scene of the accident. It was obvious that everyone was burned to a crisp, so there was no way anyone was still alive.

She returned to the top of the cliff, looked at the night sky with falling snow, and walked towards the city without looking back.

I walked until dawn, and then until eight in the morning, and finally saw Qi Changxiao riding a bicycle hurriedly on the main road in the western suburbs.

She smiled and whistled: "Hey, Teacher Qi, good morning!"

Qi Changxiao was so anxious that he almost died. He didn't expect that his wife came back safely, and there was no trace of the three robbers.

He quickly got out of the car, wrapped his scarf around Yao Zhizhi's neck, and complained, "You're still laughing. I'm so worried, don't you know? Are you okay? Where are those three bastards?"

"Dead." Yao Zhizhi hugged the panicked man and whispered a secret to him, "I didn't kill them. They fell off the cliff and burned to death."

"Huh? How did you escape?" Qi Changxiao became even more anxious. How could he be burned to death after falling off a cliff? Did they really have a car?

It was really frustrating, but the most urgent thing was to go back first. So he carried Yao Zhizhi and rode all the way back to the courtyard in the wind and snow.

The car stopped, the gate closed, and he took off his gloves and Lei Feng hat. He finally had time to have a good fight with her.

But I saw that she had already washed her face and brushed her teeth, and was holding a bowl of hot sweet potato porridge, eating it as if nothing had happened.

He was very angry. He sat next to her and asked in a low voice: "What happened? Are you hurt?"

"Teacher Qi, I'm fine." Yao Zhizhi smiled and put a piece of sweet potato into his mouth. "Luckily, school starts tomorrow. Otherwise, we would be late on our first day of work, which would be a sin."

Qi Changxiao hadn't brushed his teeth yet, so he grabbed her spoon. He didn't care, he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter today.

He closed the door and said seriously, "Tell me the truth, do you have any other identity?"

Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything, just looked up at him silently.

She was considering how much he had guessed and whether she should tell him the truth.

Unexpectedly, the next second he asked, "Are you a martial artist?"

Yao Zhizhi laughed, thought for a moment, and nodded seriously: "I guess so, but my sparring partner is a little special."

"What sparring partner? Can you tell me?" Qi Changxiao leaned forward, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

As the distance shortened, his eyes held a stubborn persistence.

Yao Zhizhi simply put down the spoon and said calmly, "Do you believe in a dead person who bites people?"
