The subtle car noise is the sound of the engine belt about to break.
Just as Jiang Jun was concentrating, his movements paused and he stepped on empty air.
Seeing this, Chen Yuefei hurriedly reached out to hold Jiang Yun's arm and steady her.
One of the two tall men who were forcing Chen Yuefei, Jeddah, and Jiang Jun into the car with guns suddenly pointed at Chen Yuefei and Jiang Jun and shouted, "You two, put your hands up and stand over there!"
Chen Yuefei had no choice but to raise his hands and step away.
Jiang Jun raised her hand and turned around. The tall man pointed a gun at her and said, "Take off your military coat and cotton hat and throw them into the car."
Another tall man asked, "What's going on?"
"It's enough for us to take two people as hostages. Let them stay here, get some rain and wind, and grow up healthily! Let No. 3 wear the coat. Children are not resistant to cold, and the temperature may drop to zero degrees in a while." The tall man replied expressionlessly.
In fact, the tall guy found that Chen Yuefei was very agile and was afraid that if he was left in the car, he might find a chance to resist, which would cause unnecessary trouble for their escape. So he thought of taking off Jiang Jun's cotton coat and leaving it with him. Chen Yuefei would never abandon Jiang Jun and run away!
The wind is blowing so hard, they have nothing to eat or drink, and there is no one within dozens of miles. Let's see how long they can last.
Chen Yuefei watched the truck leave in a cloud of dust, then turned to look at Jiang Jun. "Are you cold? I'll take off my cotton-padded jacket and give it to you!"
Jiang Jun pulled out the towel from his back, wrapped it around his head, and tied it tightly, making sure the strong wind wouldn't blow it away. "No, my robe is still thick enough. Just keep your strength and hold me back so the wind doesn't blow me away. We have to catch up with their car."
Chen Yuefei was stunned. "How can we catch up with them on our two legs and against the wind? It's getting dark soon and we can't even see the wheel tracks!"
Jiang Jun stood with his back to the wind. "The car won't get very far before it breaks down." Without waiting for Chen Yuefei to ask, he explained, "The engine belt is about to break. If they step on the accelerator too quickly, the car will stop quickly."
Chen Yuefei said bitterly, "Damn it! They've confiscated all the guns and bullets, and the radio is in the car. If the car breaks down on the way, will they do anything to Jida and Wang Feng?"
Jiang Jun tried to walk backwards, but couldn't move. He turned around and held Chen Yuefei's arm tightly. "Those guys won't do anything to them if they want to refuel the car. And I think they can repair the car. If there are spare tools in the car, they can change the motor belt and still make it to the company. We have to catch up while they are changing the belt."
Chen Yuefei gritted his teeth: "But we have nothing, what can we do if we catch up?"
Jiang Jun said, "It's getting dark soon. While they're fixing the car, the others will definitely stay in the car and won't get off. Two people will have to fix the car up front, one to fix the car and the other to help with the flashlight. I have a box of matches, so I'll take this opportunity to run over, open the fuel tank cap, and throw a lit match in.
At this time, they will definitely run over to the area where the fire started, so you can take the opportunity to go to the cab and get a rifle.
I think that kid must be a very important person, you hear? They call him Number Three.
After the car caught fire, one of the two guards in the car must have jumped out holding No. 3 while the other went to help put out the fire. Perhaps Jida could have escaped or grabbed a pistol during the chaos."
Chen Yuefei suddenly became excited: "Yes, they must take No. 3 with them to meet No. 1 and No. 2! All right, let's give chase. Xiaojun, how come you're so familiar with cars? You learned it just by looking at it?"
Jiang Jun turned his head away from the wind and answered breathlessly, "I've seen the car brochure."
In the time and space of 2020, all cars produced were equipped with a thick instruction manual and user manual. In fact, not only cars, but almost all daily necessities were equipped with instruction manuals. Jiang Jun had long developed the habit of reading the manual before everything.
Chen Yuefei took a few steps and said, "It's too strenuous to walk like this. Can you walk? Let me carry you."
Two people together are not easily blown away.
Jiang Jun pulled Chen Yuefei's arm and said, "Don't carry me. Save your energy to chase them. Don't walk in a straight line. Walk diagonally. Stop when the wind blows, and move on when the wind passes."
The two of them stumbled and walked for more than ten minutes before they covered a short distance.
Chen Yuefei was anxious: "It's almost dark! No, it's the strong wind. Look, the sky ahead is completely dark!"
Jiang Jun looked around and said, "Hurry up and find a place to hide to avoid this gust of wind."
There was a small mound not far away. Jiang Jun dragged Chen Yuefei over and lay down. "Hold your head and press hard against the ground!"
Soon, a strong wind blew sand and stones over, hitting the exposed skin, as if being hit by shotgun bullets.
Jiang Jun knew that the back of his hand was almost bloody.
After a while, Chen Yuefei pushed Jiang Jun and said, "Xiao Jun, the wind has stopped!"
Jiang Jun lay down too hard and the ground was cold, so her limbs were a little stiff. She shook the sand off her head and prepared to get up.
Chen Yuefei whispered in surprise: "Xiaojun, look, a truck!"
The truck they thought they had lost sight of was suddenly parked several hundred meters away.
It turned out that their steps had deviated and they had gone in the wrong direction.
Chen Yuefei tilted his head left and right: "Xiaojun, do you think the truck has overturned?"
Jiang Jun looked at the silhouette in the dim night in the distance: "Yes, it flipped over."
The truck bed moved towards them, and several people in the car were thrown out of the car. They slowly started to sit up and walk around.
Chen Yuefei whispered, "Wang Feng is in trouble. He'll be crushed by those two big guys in the cab. His leg is already broken."
Jiang Jun whispered, "Let's crawl over there. The bodyguards are strong enough to lift the car."
Since they were behind these people, it was much easier for them to act.
When Chen Yuefei and Jiang Jun finally approached the truck, the two tall bodyguards in the cab had already climbed out, and the four big men plus Jida were working together to lift the car.
The teenage boy stood aside in a military coat that dragged on the ground.
Chen Yuefei took Jiang Yun's towel, covered the boy's mouth from behind, knocked him unconscious with a punch, and quickly pulled off his military coat and cotton hat and gave them to Jiang Yun.
Jiang Jun put on his coat and cotton hat, bent his legs, and ran over quickly. The tall man was still shouting, "Number Three, don't come over here, or I'll hit you!"
Jiang Jun took advantage of the moment when the car's wheels touched the ground, ran to the fuel tank, unscrewed the cap, and before the tall man noticed something was wrong and chased after him, he struck the match and threw it into the tank.
The fire was so fierce that the flames jumped out of the fuel tank in an instant. Jiang Jun had no time to dodge and his military coat also caught fire.
