Chapter 158 Stealing the First Aid Pills and Playing the Long Game
Lu Xingchen nudged the angry Jiang Wang with his elbow and signaled him to look at his bowl with his eyes.
Jiang Wang lowered his head and actually saw the bowl full of braised pork.
Obviously this was not what he expected.
Lu Xingchen smiled and said, "Brother, is this okay?"
"Humph." Jiang Wang happily took a big bite of the delicious braised pork. His right cheek was puffed up. He muttered, "You are worthy of respect, but am I such an unprincipled person?"
Lu Xingchen picked up the military water bottle and poured a glass of boiled water for his brother-in-law. Jiang Wang took it naturally, gulped down a few mouthfuls, and instantly felt refreshed.
Jiang Zhizhi sat opposite the two of them, with a smile on his face harder than a gun. His brother was too funny, he really couldn't hold it back.
After the three of them finished their meal, Jiang Zhizhi pulled one person in each hand and led them to the woods nearby. The two cooperated and followed her without any resistance.
After arriving at the forest, Jiang Zhizhi said in a low voice, "Brother, Brother Chen, I feel like I'm being watched."
Upon hearing Jiang Zhizhi's words, Jiang Wang and Lu Xingchen instantly restrained their arrogance and casualness and sneered.
"Little guy, are you suspicious of Sun Jian?" Jiang Wang's eyes were cold and his voice was a little angry. "I do know something about him."
"Sun Jian currently works at a medical research institute. He comes from a very backward small county town. His parents died in an accident when he was ten years old. Only a seven-year-old brother and a three-year-old sister are left in the family."
"This accident came too suddenly. Before Sun Jian had time to feel sad, a bunch of relatives came to his house, saying that they were all for the good of the three siblings, but in fact they just wanted to divide up the two thatched houses, private plots of land and the money that Sun Jian's father and mother had left behind."
"Sun Jian was only ten years old. He had no control over everything and had no way to resist. He was badly betrayed by these so-called relatives. At the age of ten, Sun Jian was both a father and a mother. At such a young age, he lived a more miserable life than an adult. He raised his younger brother and sister with great difficulty. But his younger brother had a conflict and a fight with the son of the so-called eldest uncle. When the eldest uncle found out, he whipped him almost to death, leaving him with sequelae."
"It seems that Sun Jian's sister got married, but I heard that she was not very happy after marriage and accidentally miscarried the baby in her belly. Later, Sun Jian didn't know what opportunity he had, but he studied medicine and became a doctor. By chance, he met Tao Bao and got connected to the Sun family."
Lu Xingchen folded his arms and leaned back against the tree. "Sun Jian survived so many unfortunate experiences and setbacks. But, after some people have experienced great suffering, their temperament may really change."
After a few seconds, Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "People like this are not simple."
Sun Jian can still keep smiling until today. He can maintain a smile no matter who he meets. Even after being scolded by Tao Baojian, he was still able to smile. This in itself is an incredible thing.
Lu Xingchen rubbed Jiang Zhizhi's head, and his voice was a little more smiling: "Some pills are ordinary to you, but they are very useful in the hands of others."
The three of them gathered together to discuss something, and then returned to the tent where Jiang Zhizhi had placed the medical kit.
Jiang Wang looked around and said, "This guy is really capable!"
"I can only say that he is very careful and knows how to clean up the traces."
"Wait, little one, he didn't really take the emergency pills, did he?"
Hearing this, Lu Xingchen smiled.
His little girl's eyes were sparkling, like a cunning little fox, and no one knew what bad ideas she was planning at the moment.
Jiang Zhizhi casually opened the medicine box and saw the small bottle where she kept the first aid pills. She unscrewed the lid and poured out all the pills inside. She smiled and said, "There were six pills in total, and now there are only four left."
"Him? He took the laxative pills." Jiang Zhizhi raised her delicate eyebrows slightly and calmly put all the pills back.
Jiang Wang couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Indeed, but the cleverness backfired."
Lu Xingchen patted his shoulder and said, "Brother, take it easy. Go out and pretend nothing happened."
"Who the hell allowed you to call me brother? How cruel of you!" Jiang Wang slapped Lu Xingchen's claw away angrily and rolled his eyes as he walked.
Lu Xingchen: "Didn't you insist on being my brother before? Why are you turning your back on me now?"
"A man should keep his word."
........
Half an hour later.
Soldiers from the regiment gathered around. Two strong men among them lifted the captain, Gu Qingpei, onto a stretcher, then carried him into a car and took him directly to a nearby hospital.
Everyone stood there and watched the military truck leave.
The corners of Jiang Zhizhi's lips curled up slowly. When she smiled, the military doctors from other places panicked.
This medical tycoon is so scary!
Tao Bao, who was standing in the corner, was feeling indignant. No one came to curry favor with him and Sun Jian was the only one left by his side.
But Sun Jian started to act strangely at noon, and he would chuckle from time to time, which sounded creepy.
Could it be that Jiang Zhizhi drove him crazy?
So fragile?
Tao Bao snorted disdainfully and became more and more contemptuous of Sun Jian. He had only been in the Medical Research Institute for more than a year, but had not made any progress at all.
A country bumpkin! A useless, insignificant country bumpkin!
.......
night.
Sun Jian sat up in the tent. It was pitch black all around, with only a little firelight outside the tent. The night wind was howling outside, and the firelight was swaying with the wind, adding a touch of mystery to the night.
Sun Jian put on his coat and carefully looked at the first aid pill in his pocket. His heart beat faster.
He put on his shoes quietly, stood up, and walked out of the tent with quickened steps.
"Sun Jian, where are you going?"
As soon as he walked outside, he was caught off guard by a confused and doubtful voice. Sun Jian's heart started pounding and cold sweat broke out in an instant. He turned back with his body stiff.
"I have a stomachache, so I'm going to go outside to take care of it. What's the matter with you?"
Tao Bao suddenly jumped out and yawned crazily several times, saying in a very bad tone, "It's because they were snoring so loudly, like a tractor, it woke me up."
Tao Bao smiled his signature smile again. It was so difficult to coax this grandson back to sleep. Such a life was bullshit!
Taking advantage of the cover of night, Sun Jian rushed into the woods at great speed. The evening breeze at this time felt chilly on his body, but Sun Jian no longer cared about anything.
He now had only one thought in mind, to quickly meet up with the contact person.
After running for nearly ten minutes, Sun Jian finally found someone behind a huge rock.
"Did you get it?"
"I got it."
"Are you sure no one is following you?!"
"Um."
The person who responded was dressed in black clothes and black pants, with his face tightly covered, and it was impossible to see what his facial features looked like in the dark night.
Sun Jian's voice rose several notches, with a hint of madness hidden in it: "I'm betting everything! You must protect all my glory and wealth."
"If this works, then everything I've done will be worth it."
The man in black nodded, looked Sun Jian up and down, and said in a cold voice: "Follow me."
The two men ran towards the north. The dark and endless forest made a rustling sound, and their figures quickly disappeared into the night.
But the man in black remained vigilant and wandered around in the forest before he found the right path.
At this moment, Jiang Zhizhi, Lu Xingchen, Jiang Wang, Han Cheng, Wang Gui, Erhu, Dapeng and others who were hiding nearby all moved and formed a fan shape to move forward.
If we don't catch these two people at this time, we will just wait for the big fish behind to emerge and kill it directly.
Play the long game and catch the big fish.
Because the man in black had chosen the spot early, he quickly brought Sun Jian to a small fishing village.
The man in black clothes and black pants raised his hand to stop Sun Jian and smiled meaningfully: "Wait here."
Sun Jian had no choice but to stand where he was, but his palms were sweating madly, yet he maintained a calm look on the surface.
He is not afraid of being exploited at all, but he is afraid of not being able to be exploited.
He couldn't wait any longer. In such a severe environment, there was no way for him to make more money.
Was he going to watch his own brother lie in bed for the rest of his life?
Could he have the heart to let his own sister struggle in the sea of suffering for the rest of her life, being verbally abused by her in-laws, exploited for her labor, and beaten and kicked by her husband?
So Sun Jian stood up and took risks to help this group of people.
They promised that once the task was accomplished, they would give him a large sum of money and gold, so that he would never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.
Sun Jian wavered again and again, but finally he thought of his younger brother and sister and finally relented.
A few minutes later, there were slight movements coming from the small fishing village. Indistinct figures of a dozen people could be seen walking to the riverside. The water rippled in circles around them, and a fishing boat came quickly from the darkness.
At this moment, someone who could speak appeared.
"If you want to meet with that adult, you must show your worth." He was tall and strong. After walking over and talking to Sun Jian for a few words, Sun Jian took out a medicine box from his pocket and handed it to the strong middle-aged man.
"Tell that gentleman that I am valuable."
The strong middle-aged man opened the medicine box, put it under his nose and sniffed it. "Yes, it feels cool."
He handed Sun Jian a box and warned him, "This is half of the reward. The rest will be yours after the job is done."
Sun Jian smiled and took the box.
Anyway, he still has another first aid pill, which is his trump card.
These people clearly wanted to send the goods out by water. After all, if they drove at this time, they would leave traces.
The strong and sturdy middle-aged man was very satisfied with Sun Jian's awareness of the current situation. He turned around and waved to the man in black, preparing to leave with him.
At this critical moment, many figures suddenly appeared around them, holding weapons in their hands, and surrounded them with great momentum.
The strong middle-aged man's face was darker than the night. He grabbed Sun Jian and said viciously, "Fuck you! You led people here!"
At the same time, he quickly put the medicine box into his trouser pocket. At this time, he was not polite at all and threw Sun Jian out with force. This force was not a problem for him at all.
Sun Jian curled up into a ball, drew an arc in the night sky, and was thrown towards Jiang Zhizhi's position.
Jiang Zhizhi was about to raise his foot to kick the man down, but Lu Xingchen's expression became more serious. He reached out to grab Sun Jian, then pinned him down with his backhand, "Hancheng!"
Han Cheng came running over and tied up Sun Jian with a rope. This rope was brought by Jiang Zhizhi, and it was really a rare and strong rope.
The strong and powerful middle-aged man threw Sun Jian out like a ball, then immediately turned around and fled to the side of the boat. The people standing on the boat not far away were unable to react in time, giving Jiang Wang an opportunity.
"Catch!" With a sharp and cold shout, Jiang Wang exuded a murderous aura. With a flash of his figure, he caught the man in black who was trying to jump into the water to escape.
Erhu and Dapeng followed closely behind, grabbing the man in black from the left and right and tying him up.
At the same time, Lu Xingchen sneaked out first. His figure was like a Shura. Wherever he went, there were wailing sounds and he suffered inhuman pain.
Wang Gui, who was following behind Captain Lu, couldn't help but sigh. These people were simply looking for death. They could have targeted anyone else, but chose to use Sun Jian as a ball to hit Jiang Zhizhi. This must have angered King Lu Yan.
Jiang Zhizhi cooperated with Lu Xingchen and Jiang Wang, rushed to the side of the boat first, and kicked the strong and powerful middle-aged man. The opponent was unable to dodge, and the huge impact force knocked him back repeatedly.
Lu Xingchen was extremely cold-blooded. He walked over quickly and wanted to help, but he saw Jiang Zhizhi shaking her head. Having been traveling to dangerous places for many years, Lu Xingchen was very familiar with this sense of danger, but today, this sense of danger was exuded by his little girl.
The middle-aged man was so angry that his face turned red. He frantically took out his weapon and asked, "Who are you?"
