The next second, the revolver and two rows of bullets appeared in Lu Zhaochong's hand. "I haven't had enough fun yet."
"Hmph!" Ling Ran snorted heavily, "Have you had enough fun? You all don't even know how you died. Zhou Niao has been followed three times, and once in the capital, a total of four times, and you don't even know a single one."
After saying that, he snatched the thing from Lu Zhaochong's hand, and it disappeared from his hand in a flash.
Lu Zhaochong didn't notice anything wrong with Ling Ran's action or his hiding of things, because his heart was shocked by the boss's words. Were they being followed? When he just came back, his sister-in-law asked him if any woman had approached Zhou Niao. Could this be what she was asking?
Ling Ran heard his question and nodded, "Yes, your sister-in-law doesn't blame you, but I want to say something to you. Haven't you heard of illusion? Just because you don't see repeated faces and figures doesn't mean you aren't being followed."
After saying that, he sighed and said, "I've been careless before."
Without waiting for Lu Zhaochong to ask, he told her about how he lost his guard against the old lady on the day he was kidnapped. "Carelessness leads to the loss of Jingzhou! Your sister-in-law saw through the enemy, and someone who didn't want to cause trouble stopped them. What if these two conditions weren't met? We don't know what would have happened to your sister-in-law and me.
After all, the other party's powder is more powerful than the captain's. Moreover, the captain can't make the antidote, but the other party can. Everyone else thinks that with the captain's powder, they are not afraid of anything. The captain is just a latecomer, and the ancient books and materials he has are not complete.
Lu Zhaochong's expression changed again. "Well, have you reported this to the captain? I think we should ask him to take back the powder, lest they lose their vigilance."
Ling Ran nodded. "I've reported it. The captain is collecting the powder from those who haven't been on their mission. If you dare to use the powder against them, it's like plucking hair from a tiger's head. It's a provocation. They'll give it back to you, and you'll just have to bear the consequences."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhaochong approached the boss and asked, "Can you bear it? Didn't you say that it was a woman who used the drug on you?"
Ling Ran scoffed, "Do you think I'm you? I can't even stand the captain's itching powder."
Lu Zhaochong took a few steps back and said, "Anyone who can tolerate itching powder is not a normal person."
Ling Ran waved his hand, "Stop talking nonsense. A normal person like you can only do normal things. So, don't tell me you took the revolver from me. This revolver belongs to the people who followed you. If you dare to drag us into this, you're dead."
"Boss," Lu Zhaochong asked hesitantly, "Isn't my sister-in-law's family just an ordinary family? How did they attract enemies?"
"Those of you who are implicated, stop asking questions. Just protect Zhou Niao steadily. If anything goes wrong, contact us."
"yes."
The two stopped talking and watched Zhou Niao sleeping on the bed.
As soon as the sun rose, Zhou Xiang hurried over. "How's it going? Big brother hasn't woken up yet?"
Ling Ran shook his head, "No! Don't worry, it's still 24 hours!"
"Well, I'll go wash up, and it'll be your turn after breakfast."
"Go!"
Who knew that Zhou Niao was unconscious for nearly 50 hours. When Zhou Xiang thought she could no longer hide the secret, Zhou Niao finally woke up.
"Brother?" Zhou Xiang was very anxious.
Ling Ran held her back and asked her to give her brother some time.
Zhou Niao was in a daze for about half an hour, then he slowly stood up and sat down. The first thing he did was turn around to look for something.
Seeing Zhou Xiang, he immediately smiled, stood up and opened his arms, "Sister!"
Zhou Xiang shook off Ling Ran and threw himself into his brother's arms, "Brother, are you okay?"
Hearing this, Zhou Niao pulled his sister away from him and lowered his head, "Take a good look at me and see if I'm okay."
When Zhou Xiang looked up, he looked into his elder brother's eyes. The light in his eyes was different from usual. The innocence was still there, but there was more maturity and calmness than before, which was very soothing.
"Well! Big brother is fine." Zhou Xiang shed tears as he spoke. Big brother is fine now. From now on, he won't be criticized by others anymore.
Zhou Niao hugged his sister again and patted her back, "Don't cry. From now on, don't bear it alone. You are the one who deserves to grow up without worries."
This silly sister actually wants him to be simple and happy forever.
After hearing this, Zhou Xiang suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. She wanted to lie in her eldest brother's arms and have a good cry. She was not alone, she had brothers and sisters.
Zhou Niao was frightened by his sister's sudden burst into tears. He frantically patted her back and said, "Don't cry! Everything is fine now."
Ling Ran felt like he was soaking in a jar of vinegar, "Brother, give my wife back to me."
Zhou Niao turned around with his sister, his back to him, "This is my sister, you haven't had the wedding yet."
Zhou Xiang, who was crying, suddenly wanted to laugh when she heard her elder brother say "This is my sister". Even though her elder brother was better, he was still the elder brother who loved to compete with others for his sister.
She stepped out of her brother's embrace, took the tissue Ling Ran handed over, and wiped her tears. "Yes! I am your sister, no one can take me away."
Zhou Niao touched his sister's head with a doting heart. It was so nice! He could be a support for his younger siblings in the future. It was so nice!
"Well! Don't let me snatch it. I'm your brother-in-law, you have to listen to me."
For the first time, Ling Ran felt that his brother-in-law was too difficult to deal with.
At this time, Zhou's mother ran up panting, "Xiang Xiang, what's wrong? What happened?"
It turned out that Zhou's mother heard her little girl crying and ran over in fright.
Zhou Niao smiled and called out, "Mom!"
Mother Zhou looked at her eldest son in confusion. This "Mom" was full of emotion, but it also lacked the usual dependence that a child would have when calling her mom.
Seeing her mother stunned, Zhou Niao called out again, "Mom!"
"Hey!" Zhou's mother quickly agreed, and then continued to observe her eldest son. Nothing had changed! Why did she feel like something was wrong?
When she saw her eldest son's eyes, the emotions and excitement in those eyes made her heart skip a beat. Was her eldest son also reborn?
No, even if the eldest son was reborn, he would still be that child with low IQ.
IQ? Yes, IQ. The emotion and excitement in the eldest son's eyes represent an adult, a normal person.
"Boss? Boss! Are you okay? Are you completely awake?" Zhou's mother's eyes immediately filled with tears.
Zhou Niao nodded, "Yes! I'm awake."
When Zhou's mother heard the affirmative answer, she was stunned for a moment, then hugged her eldest son, "Big Boss, it's good that you're awake now! I'm sorry for you. I didn't take good care of you, and let you live in a daze for more than 20 years! I feel so guilty!"
I wish time could go back. When I go back, work points and food won’t be important. You are the most important thing!”
Zhou Niao patted his mother's back soothingly. He understood his mother's guilt and didn't blame her. "Mom! I don't blame you. The situation at the time didn't allow it, did it?"
The more he tried to persuade her, the harder Zhou's mother cried. He could only pat her on the back and let her cry to her heart's content.
