Chapter 237 The Real Missing Wu Sansheng
After a sandstorm, Aning's team was blown into pieces.
Looking at the dozen or so guys left around him, Aning's heart sank to the bottom, and his face was so dark that water seemed to be dripping out.
Half of their team was lost, and in addition to their own people, Wu Sansheng and Pan Zi, whom he brought with him, were also lost.
Huo Xiuxiu from the Huo family, who was sitting in the car behind them, and her two close-knit experts were separated from the convoy in the storm and were also lost.
What made her want to vomit blood even more was that the guide who led them was also lost. Losing the master and the ally was one thing, but without the guide, they had no way of finding the place!
At this moment, Ning suddenly thought of an old Chinese saying: The late emperor's career was only halfway completed when he suddenly collapsed...
Wujia, the cunning old fox, will definitely leave himself a way out, so he should be fine. But the missing little girl from the Huo family is the most worrying one.
But she knew that her boss had a grudge with the people of the Nine Gates and had cheated the older generation of the Nine Gates, especially the Wujia and Jie families. It could be said that he had offended them deeply.
If something happens to Huo Xiuxiu, the heir of the Huo family, during this operation, it will add to the hatred and offend the entire family.
If it were the other families in the Nine Gates, it would be fine. At most, they would just cause some minor troubles, but the Huo family was a little special.
Many of the Huo family's women married into wealthy families and had connections with the government. If they were targeted and officials were to investigate their company, even if their boss had protection, it would probably be difficult for them to smuggle anything in and out in the future.
The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Although the sun was shining brightly above her head, her heart felt cold at the moment.
Huo Xiuxiu, whom she was worried about, was squatting on a sand dune at this time, staring at her mobile phone, and drawing circles regularly on the sand with the dagger in her hand out of boredom. It was unknown who she was trying to curse.
There were two men and one woman standing around him.
Among them, a man and a woman followed behind Huo Xiuxiu. The man folded his arms and pretended to look ahead casually, but his eyes were always on the man who was a little further away from them.
The woman was holding a black parasol for Huo Xiuxiu. She had an unhappy look on her face and turned to look at other people from time to time.
The last man left was an unremarkable-looking man, who was standing about six or seven meters away from the three. At this moment, he was staring blankly with no one knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the phone rang. Huo Xiuxiu's eyes lit up. She threw the exquisite little dagger in her hand to the ground and quickly answered the call.
"Brother Xiaohua! I've been sending my location for ages, why haven't you arrived yet?"
After standing in the sand for a long time under such strong sun, she felt like she was going to get tanned. Coupled with the previous experience of encountering a rare sandstorm, being blown by strong winds, and having her face covered with sand, she felt that all her exquisite skin care efforts for the past month were in vain.
"We are almost near you, please turn on the precise positioning."
"Well, okay, we're on a sand dune, pretty conspicuous. You should be able to see it if you get closer.
You guys need to hurry up, Brother Xiaohua. Xiuxiu is feeling really bad from being in the sun. I miss you. I also really want to see Brother Wuxie now. I haven’t seen him for years.”
Huo Xiuxiu first responded very obediently, and then urged in a coquettish manner.
Xie Yuchen on the other end of the phone smiled helplessly, said ok, comforted her a few words, asked about the situation and hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, the smile on Xie Yuchen's face disappeared in a second. He expressionlessly put his fingers on Hei Xiazi's head and pushed him away with disgust.
"You blind man, stay away from me."
Hei Xiazi sat up straight with a wronged look on his face, and spoke with a pursed mouth.
"Don't be so heartless. I just want to hear about my final payment... No, I should say I want to hear whether my employer is with that girl."
He saw the message that the Zhang family's undercover sent to Zhang Moyu. If the old fox Wu Sansheng is not with An Ning, and if he is not with Huo Xiuxiu either, then the old fox will be in great danger.
Is it that Hei Xia Zi is destined not to get the final payment?
Wu Sansheng seems to be as smart as a shrewd person in normal times, but when he encounters real problems, he can't even curry favor with others. Hei Xiazi despises Wu Sansheng in his heart.
They are both scum with no fighting ability. Xiao Wuxie at least knows how to flatter others, but Wu Sansheng has not made any progress at all in these years. He only knows how to hide in dark corners and plot against people. He is not good at anything else. He is really getting worse as he grows older.
Getting lost in this desert is no joke. No one will be able to help you. If you are unlucky and encounter some quicksand or something, you won't even have to worry about collecting the bodies.
"You're the heartless one, right? I heard everything. You don't really care about my Third Uncle. You care about your final payment."
Wuxie, who was genuinely worried about Wu Sanxing, complained speechlessly, and then was caught off guard by Hei Xiazi's small white handkerchief and was swept across the face, so he quickly retreated strategically.
Hei Xia Zi took out his favorite performance tool recently - a small white handkerchief, and then began to sing, recite, act and dance, acting like a Qiong Yao heroine, and speaking with a clamped voice.
"I'm not heartless! It's you who are heartless, you are ungrateful, and you are unreasonable~"
"You are heartless, you are ungrateful, and you are unreasonable!"
Wuxie, who was being accused, subconsciously retorted with the exact same words, but then he realized belatedly that their conversation seemed to be similar to something in a certain literary work. What was so weird about it?
Wu Xie was then blocked by Hei Xia Zi with the words "You are the most ruthless, you are the most..." Wu Xie, unwilling to be outdone, said "You are even more ruthless, you are even more...", and then it was Hei Xia Zi again...
The two of them started arguing with each other, piling up their words like crazy, neither of them wanted to admit defeat, and the people around them watched with great laughter.
When I’m bored, watching other people’s boring quarrels feels particularly interesting.
You know what, Wuxie does have some weird skills.
Hei Xia Zi, who has been hanging out with all kinds of people for a long time, almost lost the verbal battle this time.
The main reason is that Hei Xia Zi used to curse people with a lot of swear words or in a sarcastic tone, and he had never experienced this kind of nonsense literature, like the "Qiong Yao-style verbal battle" of elementary school students.
He is not as knowledgeable as Wuxie in this area of literature. If he voluntarily gives up this style of verbal battle, it will seem like he has lost. He can only deal with it and refuse to admit defeat.
Wuxie spoke fluently, and the worries in his heart disappeared unconsciously. Suddenly, he found that he seemed to have the upper hand in this verbal battle.
It was unbelievable that he would one day win a small victory over Hei Xia Zi in a verbal battle. Wu Xie suddenly understood.
Wu Sansheng? What is Wu Sansheng? Is it important that he is good at talking nonsense?
