Chapter 220 Lying
"ah?!"
Big Mole was a little confused by this question, "Just, just once!"
"Did they say you can only go once, or do you think you can only go once?"
Big Mole scratched his head and said, "They didn't say it. It's, it's us who think..."
Suddenly, as if a flash of inspiration had occurred to him, he shouted:
"Yes! If you can pass it once, you can pass it a second time. At most, you can find a few more new faces, and then you can collect five pottery shards in one village. Why rush around like this? It's dangerous!"
Su Tong shook his head. "If they said that we can only participate once, then your method might be possible. But they didn't say that, which only proves that this method is not feasible."
Then she asked, "Have you seen the pottery fragments from Qingshi Village?"
Big Mole nodded, then started to panic again:
"I have seen it, but it's not on me! Sister Lan! Brother Yi! I really don't have the pottery fragment!"
Su Tong ignored him, turned back to look at Zhao Xin, and said:
"Ah Xin! Show him the pottery shards."
Zhao Xin had kept the piece of pottery he got from Crow's Mouth Rock.
Zhao Xin took the piece of pottery and handed it to Su Tong. Su Tong gave it to Da Zhi and said, "Take a look! Is it the same as the one you saw?"
How dare I take on a big mole!
He waved his hands around and kept shouting:
"Lan, Sister Lan, uh, uh, just look at it like this! I can see it!"
He stared at the pottery fragment in Su Tong's hand and said:
"I don't know about other things, but the colors are definitely different! This one is yellow, and ours is pitch black!"
Su Tong returned the pottery shard to Zhao Xin and nodded:
"That's right! All five pieces of pottery should be different. If you complete a test repeatedly, you can only get the same kind of pottery."
"Okay! I've finished asking questions." Su Tong turned to Qin Yi and said.
Qin Yi didn't say anything, just raised his chin towards Ma Liu.
Ma Liu had no choice but to put on the tone of Liu Ye and said:
"Alright! Since you are Master Ma's subordinates, there is no need for us to embarrass you. Just go! Be smart next time we meet and don't cause unnecessary trouble!"
"Hey - I understand! I understand! I'll tell Master Ma when I get back! We'll still be brothers next time we meet!"
Big Mole nodded and said, touching his stomach with his elbow. The two turned around and ran out of the cave.
"Big Mole! Why were you panicking when Master Liu said Master Ma's name just now?"
Just as the two of them were about to run out of the cave, Qin Yi suddenly asked lightly.
The big mole paused, turned around stiffly, tried to force a smile, looked at Qin Yi and hesitated for a long time, then said:
"Uh, um... was it a misunderstanding? I'm afraid we might have run into an enemy..."
"Oh—are you afraid of running into some enemy?"
Qin Yi's voice was full of pressure, "Think carefully before answering! You only have one chance!"
The big mole froze in place for a while, then he took a few steps back as if he had made up his mind, and said in a low voice:
"We are all brothers who have dealt with each other before. There is nothing we cannot talk about. I heard, I heard that - the police have sneaked into our area!"
He spoke the last sentence word by word, extremely cautiously!
Qin Yi snorted coldly, "What? Are you looking at me like that?"
The big mole's face was a little stiff, and he smiled:
"Brother Yi, you misunderstood! At that time, Sixth Master called out Master Ma's name, which scared me a little! You know, in our line of work... we usually just call each other by their names. Those who can call out the other person's name are either acquaintances or police officers!"
"Haha... Isn't this really an acquaintance? I've seen Sixth Master before! How could Sixth Master be hanging out with the police?"
After saying this, he forced a fake smile.
Ma Liu standing aside also had a stiff face and a fake smile. He was definitely hanging out with the police!
Qin Yi sneered, turned to Zhou Jin in the corner and said:
"Ah Jin! Give that thing you just picked up to Brother Mole!"
Zhou Jin was stunned. When did the boss see him pick up a gun? He was planning to study it when he had time!
"Oh!" After realizing what was happening, he quickly handed the gun to Big Mole.
Dazhi took the homemade gun and looked at Qin Yi again, somewhat confused about what he meant.
"Since we are all brothers! Take it for self-defense! Let's go!" Qin Yi raised his chin towards him.
"Hey - thank you, Brother Yi!"
The big mole then put away his gun and happily left with his belly.
After the people walked away, Ma Liu turned around and shrank into the corner.
Qin Yi ordered people to guard the cave entrance, then turned back to look at Ma Liu and sneered:
"Sixth Master! Can you hide?"
Ma Liu pretended to be calm and laughed, "How could that be? Why should I hide?"
Qin Yi just looked at him without saying anything.
The pressure was too great, Ma Liu could no longer lie still, he rolled over and stood up, saying righteously:
"Hey - Ah Yi! Let's make some things clear! I have never left your sight since I was caught by that stinky girl! I won't have any chance to leak the news!"
Qin Yi still looked at him.
Ma Liu scratched his head and said:
"The batch of local products was shipped out from Henan Province two years ago, but was intercepted by customs when it arrived in Guangdong Province! Really! You can check it when you go back!"
Qin Yi still didn't speak.
Ma Liu turned around on the spot, scratched his head and said:
"Don't look at me like that. I've come all the way here with you. What else can I do?"
"You can still do tricks!"
Qin Yi said coldly: "The fourth day of the New Year is the right time to contact Lao Wan, right? "
Ma Liu was stunned. He didn't expect Qin Yi to be so sharp that he could find the problem from Dawei's few words. His shoulders slowly drooped and he squatted down slowly, holding his head.
"You deliberately said the wrong meeting time, and you also repeatedly told us not to leave too early to avoid alerting the enemy. You wanted us to arrive late. What was your purpose? Or... did you hope that we would not be able to collect all the pottery fragments within the deadline, in an attempt to prevent us from meeting the big boss?"
Ma Liu remained silent.
"Ma Liu, since you want us to help you save Yan Zi? Aren't you afraid of harming Yan Zi in your current state?"
Speaking of Yan Zi, Ma Liu slowly raised his head and said:
"I didn't say the wrong time on purpose. I just omitted a time. The 24th is the deadline to enter the mountain, but starting from the 4th, you can contact Lao Wan to receive tasks. The tasks you receive must be completed within 20 days. Only those who complete the tasks are eligible to enter the mountain and meet Master Peng."
"But what exactly is the mission? The pottery fragments and so on... I didn't know it in advance. Not only did I not know, but others probably only found out after they received the mission."
"Peng Ye's ultimate goal was to make us rich. We all guessed at the time...whether Peng Ye had found treasure in the mountains and took us to dig for it, but it was all just speculation. What he would do in the end...you would only know after you meet him."
"I know you are all capable people. I didn't tell you the start time, but I just hope you can arrive later and not finish the task so quickly. This way, even if you can pass, it won't alert them."
"Yan Zi is under the control of Master Peng. Her life and death depend on his will. I don't want any disturbance to affect Yan Zi's safety!"
"No! You are lying!" Qin Yi said affirmatively.
