The group of people holding Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan hostage were already on guard. The bearded man in the lead looked at Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan with a fierce look, "Are you in the same group?"
"No, we don't know them." Chen Ruxue looked at him unfriendly and quickly denied it.
Oh my god! These people were holding real weapons, many times more advanced than the wooden cannon in her space.
Although she has a system that can help her defend against danger, what should she do about Ye Haonan who is beside her?
It’s better to be sensible first and then act according to the situation.
The most important thing right now is to let down these people's guard so that they can relax their vigilance.
The bearded man didn't believe Chen Ruxue's words easily. Instead, he looked at her again and again for a long time before finally raising his hand and saying, "Leave a few people behind to cover the rear, and the rest of you follow me and leave quickly."
There's no need to fight, just get rid of them."
The bearded man is worthy of being the leader of this group. His agile way of crossing the jungle is truly amazing.
Fortunately, Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan both had excellent physical fitness and did not fall behind.
Otherwise, even if he was not trapped in the deep mountains and forests by this group of people, he would have died on the way.
The group walked quickly along the mountain road for an unknown amount of time before they finally arrived at a place that looked like a village.
The bearded man ordered his men to lock Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan in a small wooden house.
Chen Ruxue thought about the group of people who had followed them just now, and kept wondering in her heart who they were and whether they were in the same group as the people who harmed Uncle Lin?
"Xiaoxue, what are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking about those people just now! I think those people were coming for me, if nothing unexpected happened.
As for their purpose, it is obvious that they are after the treasure left behind by the Jiang and Bai families."
"What makes you think that?"
"You don't know, during these days when you're not at home, I always feel like someone is watching me.
Before, I always thought it was my illusion, but now, I feel that it is not an illusion at all. There must be someone watching me secretly. "
Chen Ruxue came to this conclusion with great certainty, and then began to observe the place they were currently in. "Brother Nan, what do you think these people do?"
Ye Haonan observed the surroundings through the gap and had a rough idea in his mind, "It looks like a bandit's nest, but I don't know what country they are from."
"That bearded guy was able to communicate with us normally just now, so he must be a local!"
Ye Haonan shook his head at Chen Ruxue, "Not necessarily. It's also possible that these people have deliberately learned our country's language."
"You said they might be foreigners! Then why did they capture us? To make us laborers? To kidnap us?"
Ye Haonan shook his head again. "I'm not sure. I just observed it and found that there are always patrols here. It should be quite orderly. It doesn't look like an ordinary bandit's nest."
"So what do you think? Do you think we have a chance to escape from here?" Chen Ruxue really didn't want to tie her life here.
"Wait a minute, let's see why they kidnapped us!"
"Okay, this is the only thing we can do for now!"
Not long after, someone came and took Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan to a wooden house that looked quite luxurious.
As soon as she entered the door, Chen Ruxue saw a particularly burly man standing with his back to them.
"Boss, the person is here!"
"Well! You guys go down first!"
"Boss, this is too dangerous. How about I stay here to protect you..."
"No need. Haven't you counted my skills yet?"
Seeing that the boss was determined to do what he wanted, the subordinate had no choice but to retreat.
"Please take a seat, both of you!"
The burly man suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan casually.
At the same time, Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan were also looking at the burly man.
The burly man was about fifty years old and had two deep scars on his left cheek, which looked like they were caused by a knife.
His eyes are as big as cow's eyes, and they look quite scary at first glance.
Ye Haonan protected Chen Ruxue behind him and stared straight at the scarred man. "Excuse me, what's the matter with you capturing us? My wife and I are just ordinary people. We shouldn't be of any use to you!"
The scarred man listened to Ye Haonan's words but remained noncommittal. "Just based on the calmness you show, who would believe you are ordinary people?"
The scarred man stared at Ye Haonan for a long while before continuing, "I really have something to do to arrest you!
My people heard that a group of geological researchers from China came here recently.
Let's be frank, I want to ask them to do me a favor."
"If you ask them for help, then help them. Why are you arresting us?"
Chen Ruxue was speechless and began to question.
The scarred man smiled at this time, "Of course I have a use for you by arresting you.
Recently I have been sending my men to look for the whereabouts of those geological researchers, and now I finally have some clues.
I was just thinking about how to connect with those people, and you guys just happened to show up. Tell me, is this fate? "
"You want to use us to threaten those people? You are so mean!"
The scarred man laughed out loud, "No, you are wrong, I am smart and have brains.
Tomorrow, I will take you to where those people are staying, use you as a threat, and force them to come with me.
I believe that those people will be very happy to do things for me because we are all compatriots."
"How shameless! I'm telling you, I will never allow you to hurt those people! Never!"
