Chapter 180: Escape and Return Home
Chapter 180: Escape and Return Home
A large group of people, some riding bicycles and some running, all rushed to the abandoned factory outside the city of Sijiu. The line was very long.
"Oh no, a large group of people are approaching us, hurry up and take him away."
The exclamation of the black-faced man in military uniform woke up his dozing companions and also made Lu Zixuan, who was praying with his eyes closed, overjoyed that his piety finally moved God.
It’s just that those heavenly soldiers who came down to earth were too focused on riding their bikes to hurry along, and were unwilling to turn their heads to take a look at the scenery of the forest.
It would be useless even if he looked. The distance was more than a hundred meters, and it was evening, so it was pitch dark and he couldn't see anything. He still had to save himself. As long as he untied the rope, he would be sure to escape.
The two men in military uniforms urged the dumb fat man to untie the ropes quickly and hide deep in the woods as it was getting dark and it would be difficult to be noticed.
The moment Lu Zixuan was freed, he ignored the pain in his body and reached for his trouser pocket. At the moment when the dumb fat man was about to clamp him again, he tore open the packet of chili powder and sprinkled it all on the fat deaf man's face, then immediately retreated behind a big tree.
The violent coughing caught the attention of the black-faced man in military uniform who was on guard. He turned and walked towards the dumb fat man who was fanning himself with his hands, wanting to find out the reason.
Lu Zixuan tore open another bag of chili powder, walked around the tree to a distance of less than one meter from the black-faced man in military uniform, and waved the bag of chili powder upwards.
"Oh no, it's the chili pepper. Come on, cough cough cough... come... cough cough cough..."
Lu Zixuan took the opportunity to run to a tree about 20 centimeters in diameter, about four or five meters away. He quickly untied the self-defense cloth wrapped around his waist, folded it in half, hugged the tree trunk, pulled the cloth tightly with both hands, and climbed up the tree using the rope made of the cloth.
When he climbed to a branch four meters above the ground, he sat on it and observed the three people under the tree.
The two men coughed violently and bent down to get closer to the big tree where Lu Zixuan was living. The other one was already on the tree. With two more leaps, he could touch the branch.
Lu Zixuan took out the paper bag from his pocket again, raised it in his hand and sneered:
"Still climbing? Want to try the taste of chili powder? Get down."
When the man in military uniform who was climbing the tree saw the paper bag in his hand, he immediately stopped climbing and jumped down from the tree.
At this time, Lu Zixuan shouted for help outside the woods.
"Help, there are enemy spies in the woods, help..."
The black-faced man in military uniform coughed and waved to the man under the tree, then fled deep into the woods.
When Lu Zixuan could no longer see their figures clearly, he hurriedly climbed down the tree and ran towards the road.
It's not that he intentionally let the other person go, but when Lu Zixuan was trying to find out information, this person remained indifferent. Either he didn't have a strong desire for power, or he was hiding it very deeply. Lu Zixuan tended to believe the latter.
This type of people have a strong sense of revenge, and if they are used properly, it will definitely bring huge rewards in the future.
After reuniting with everyone, Lu Zixuan did not rush home, but followed Chen Bangguo to the factory that was burned to ashes.
What he didn't expect was that the two men were still alive, but they were almost dead, only breathing out but not breathing in.
After sending all outsiders away, Boss Lou ordered that the two men be buried on the spot without being sent to the hospital. He subsidized each family with 1,000 yuan for funeral expenses and arranged a formal worker for each family.
Of course it was Xu Fugui who paid the money, otherwise he would have to wait for the revenge of the two families. Boss Lou knew Xu Fugui's family background very well. It couldn't be said that it was a drop in the bucket for Xu Fugui, but it was definitely not enough to hurt him seriously.
If it weren't for his face, Boss Lou would definitely make him lose everything. The more difficult his family's situation is, the more he has to provide for Lou Xiao'e in the future in order to get benefits.
After Lu Zixuan knew the result, he followed Chen Bangguo and went to the hospital to look after Chen Ping.
"Son, I know you won't abandon me. I beg you, let's not worry about anyone else's business from now on and live a good life, okay?"
Chen Ping opened her tear-blurred eyes and saw Lu Zixuan leaning against the head of the bed. She pulled him into her arms and begged.
Seeing Lu Zixuan nodded in agreement, he continued:
"Mom really can't live without you. I don't know what it feels like when the sky falls, but I know in my heart that you are Mom's sky.
With you, the sky exists. Without you, there is no air, no everything, and I cannot feel the existence of life.
I just had a dream. I dreamed that I was the one who was kidnapped, and you appeared as an omnipotent hero, wearing a gorgeous battle robe, riding a white dragon, summoning countless elves, and descending from the sky..."
Lu Zixuan exclaimed and talked about the content of his afternoon prayer.
"Mom, we are definitely mother and son. Even the way we ask for help is the same. Let me tell you..."
The mother and son talked about their dreams, the Lou family, and the kidnapping, until late at night.
For two consecutive days, Chen Ping kept Lu Zixuan by her side, not allowing him to leave her sight or see anyone, until Old Chen came with a gift carefully prepared by Boss Lou.
“This is a gift from Mr. Lou, an imported camera, 20 boxes of film, and developing equipment.
This is the one thousand yuan that Xu Fugui paid as compensation. I gave it all to you. I was greedy and took some of it. These are cigarettes, alcohol, and tea that you don't need for the time being, and your grandma will nag you about it all day long.
How is it? Are you satisfied? I am not very satisfied. What I mean is that I want him to stop running around with his mouth in his hands, take a rest at home, and not have any bad thoughts. What do you think? "
As soon as Old Chen entered the room, he asked Lu Zixuan about his plans without any courtesy.
"It seems that Director Lou means that this marriage is a must. Okay, let him have it, and you will also be doing him a favor.
Since he is determined to jump into the fire pit, let's not stop him. I heard that he has collected a lot of famous calligraphy and paintings, which he has stored in this yard."
After Lu Zixuan finished speaking, he wrote down an address and handed it to Lao Chen.
Lao Chen flicked the address and said:
"Okay, I knew you had the ability. If there are too many branches, they need to be trimmed.
Chen Qi told me about the Bangguo matter. I support his approach. I will be the bad guy. You should try to use your trump cards as little as possible.
You two boys have kowtowed to me to see me off, that's enough, don't see me off when I leave."
Chen Ping was just watching from the side. Without even giving Old Chen time to greet him, he just walked away.
It took me a long time to come back to my senses.
"What has Chen Bangguo done to anger the heavens and the people? What has Chen Qi done? Look at Old Chen's attitude of sacrificing his relatives for the sake of justice."
Lu Zixuan narrated what happened with disdain.
Regarding Jiang Shengnan's matter, Chen Qi used Old Chen's connections to make Chen Bangguo lose his official position and become a private soldier, where he spent his days drowning his sorrows in alcohol.
Old Chen couldn't bear it any longer, so some time ago, with Chen Qi's consent, he asked someone to reinstate him to his post.
Within two days, his old habit came back. He hooked up with the wife of one of his subordinates. They reported the matter to the police station and he was suspended from his job.
After Chen Qi found out, he found Lu Zixuan and wanted to transfer Chen Bangguo to the border area so that he could out of sight and out of mind.
Lu Zixuan also explained the Lou family's affairs...
