Chapter 1240: Brave to Save Yourself
This very formal official reward notice shocked people all over the world. An internet celebrity was so important that he attracted the attention of so many bigwigs. Even Harvey never showed up in public after taking over the MiGao company! Some netizens counted all the reward notices before and after, and it was almost close to 200 million US dollars!
Some big guys may not be worth so much money, right? !
Originally, many foreigners did not have much interest in "The Song of Gaixia". Now, the name of this movie and Liu Lan's name have appeared in the headlines of news in various countries. Liu Lan is called "the most priceless internet celebrity" and "The Song of Gaixia" is called "the most expensive movie in recent years". It is difficult for foreigners not to know them even if they want to.
Many foreign netizens left messages saying, "If Liu Man can return safely, I will definitely go to the cinema to watch this movie." Before the filming of "The Song of Gaixia" began, Michael Studios invested a lot of money in global publicity but did not achieve such an influence.
For Li Sanchong's relatives, such a large amount of money made them unable to even figure out what year it was. They tried desperately to call Li Sanchong, but the signal was intermittent and not always connected. Even if it was connected, it was not guaranteed to be continuous. But it was enough to let Li Sanchong know about the billion-dollar reward from the outside world.
Between $200 million and brotherly loyalty, he chose the former.
He sent a text message to his father, informing him of the location where he and Zhou Cheng were. The police guessed correctly that the place was not far from the only road in the no-man's land. They wanted to maintain signal contact with the outside world, but the road spanned nearly a thousand kilometers in the no-man's land. Without specific coordinates, it was difficult to find the place. Li Sanchong provided a very valuable clue. He said that they were at the junction of the road and a tributary of the Tarim River.
In fact, the police had contacted them by phone several times and located a rough geographical location. According to the identification of local herdsmen, there was a yurt nearby where they graze their livestock, but they never went there in winter because it was too dangerous.
According to weather forecasts, there will be a heavy snowstorm in this area in two days. If the situation is delayed any further, Liu Lan will be frozen to death if not killed by Zhou Cheng. It is urgent to rescue her.
...
...
The next day, a large number of criminal police were dispatched, and countless off-road jeeps headed straight for the yurt. Yu Zhan and Harvey also accompanied them, while the rest of the crew had been transferred out of the town and settled in a nearby city, otherwise they would not be able to get out due to the heavy snow blocking the roads.
However, when they arrived at the yurt, they found nothing except Li Sanchong's body, which was lying face down in a pool of blood at the door. It was obvious that Li Sanchong had been shot in the back of the head without any protection. A criminal police officer squatted down and touched his body, which was still warm.
"He died not long ago, Zhou Cheng must not have gone far," said the police.
The SUV at the door had been driven away. The car had been parked for a long time, and left deep marks on the ground near the yurt. The police followed the marks all the way to chase the car.
The muscles on Yu Zhan's face were tense. Zhou Cheng found out that Li Sanchong had betrayed him, and killed him without hesitation, regardless of the friendship he had risked his life for. How would such a vicious person treat Liu Man?
He didn't dare to think about it at all. He looked at the desert in front of him with red eyes. He had only one thought in his mind: he must find her!
Halfway through the journey, the car tracks were covered by wind and sand and could no longer be seen. A few kilometers ahead was a tributary of the Tarim River. The experienced police believed that Zhou Cheng must have taken Liu Lan to the river.
The car drove forward for less than a kilometer, and they suddenly heard gunshots. The sound was earth-shaking, startling countless birds living in the desert. Yu Zhan felt his heart throb, and his face turned extremely pale.
Manman, Manman...
Zhou Cheng stretched out his arm and pointed the black muzzle of his gun at Liu Lan, "You dare to run!"
Liu Lan's body stiffened for a second, but she gritted her teeth and continued running forward.
Not long ago, she saw Zhou Cheng beat Li San to death from behind when he rushed out of the door. This was the second time she saw a living person die in front of her in such a short period of time. She was not frightened, but her mind was surprisingly calm.
Zhou Cheng pointed a gun at her and forced her to get in the car. Perhaps because she had been too well-behaved and cooperative in the past few days, he was careless and did not tie her hands again. During the drive, Liu Lan was looking for an opportunity to escape.
She realized that she could no longer sit there and wait for death. If Li Sanchong died, she would be the next one. She didn't know where Zhou Cheng was going to take her, and it might be where she would be buried.
If she doesn't save herself, she will surely die.
So when the car stopped, she took advantage of the moment Zhou Cheng opened the door and ran away. Zhou Cheng was furious and shot her in the back, but she didn't care and ran desperately without looking back. Stopping would also mean death, but running would not necessarily mean death...
