Chapter 36 Zai Xin
As the prisoners were being escorted off the boat by officers and soldiers, the officer finally couldn't hold it any longer and called Xu Shanshan alone to stay and talk.
The prisoners all glanced at the two men with obscene looks that men knew well, and were finally kicked by the officers and soldiers and rolled over.
After the deck was quiet, the officer pulled out his sword and pointed it at Xu Shanshan: "What did you mean by that sentence you said before?"
"You should check it out" Let’s talk about my origins,” she asked.
The officer narrowed his eyes and fixed his sharp gaze on her: "Oh, it is precisely because I checked you that I know how glorious your history of fraud is. You'd better tell me the truth..."
"Otherwise, when you get to Black Island, I will have many ways to make your life worse than death!"
The salty sea breeze on the deck ruffled her hair, and after so many days of twists and turns in her white dress, she still remained the same. There aren't many wrinkles to be seen, let alone any dirt on it.
The more the officer observed her, the more frightened he became. Is she really as bad and stupid as the investigation?
Would a person with a bad character would rather be arrested and imprisoned than collect and bury the body of his adoptive parents in the wilderness?
Would a stupid person survive a few days unharmed among a group of male prisoners in a dangerous environment?
Everything is unusual and cannot be ignored or convinced.
He didn't want to take her words seriously, but what she said in the past few days was like a curse imprinted on his mind, making him unable to live in peace.
"Bang Dang"! The knife fell.
In an instant, he found that he could not move.
He couldn't even feel the strength of a finger, as if a cripple had lost control of all aspects of his body.
Unbeknownst to him, a smart little paper figure was silently attached to his shoulder.
"I would like to hear, how do you plan to make my life worse than death?" Xu Shanshan crossed his arms, trying to correct his flaws.
The officer was so distraught that sweat broke out on his forehead: "Yes, I'm sorry, I was just talking nonsense. I didn't mean what I said. Please, I just want to know my mother." Where is it buried?”
The fur flew out of her sleeves and landed on her shoulder. Xu Shanshan touched its soft feathers.
"I heard that Black Island is divided into two floors to hold criminals. One is in the dark and humid underground, and the other is on the ground where the heat and cold are unavoidable. I want to assign them to the floor where the eldest daughter and the youngest son of the Xu family are."< br>
The officer understood this instantly, and he responded hurriedly: "Don't worry, I can do this. I will make arrangements when the next ship comes."
Since the "deal" is discussed Well, Xu Shanshan told him what he wanted to know without hesitation.
"There is a ruined temple three miles outside Huaijiang City. You must have dug out the silver under the adobe bricks, but your mother's body has never been found, right?"
The officer's pupils With a suffocation, she felt that she really knew what was going on. Even though she was locked up in the county jail, she knew that he had trouble sleeping at night, so she ran to the ruined temple and rummaged through the adobe bricks on his feet, and finally dug out a bag of silver.
But his goal was not money, but the "female corpse". He dug three feet into the ground but could not find it.
"Yes, yes, Master Xu, please tell me where she is?" He asked with a serious look.
His mother has been missing for more than ten years. Everyone in the family accuses her of committing adultery and stealing the family's savings and running away. But he knows that his kind and caring mother will never lose her. Leave home by yourself.
But he couldn't find her, no matter how he searched, he couldn't find a single clue.
This incident has been snowballing over the years and has almost become a heart problem for him. If it is not solved, he will be uneasy and uneasy for the rest of his life.
She asked again: "Can you see there is a statue of Guanyin in the ruined temple?"
The officer recalled it, then his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and the last glimmer of hope in his eyes was shattered.
"...There are, there are, is it possible, is that?!"
Xu Shanshan saw him with tears streaming down his face, silently stunned, obviously falling into a state of grief that he could not extricate himself from. In the mood, he didn't say anything more.
She passed him and walked off the boat.
However, he saw that the prisoners, officers and soldiers on the dock were all gone. When Fang raised his eyes, he saw Mo Han running towards him with a look of fear and blue on his face.
When he saw her, he couldn't hide his anxiety. He held her wrist tightly and said, "Get out of here quickly!"
Leave? She said: "Not yet."
Mo Han didn't care how she answered, he gasped: "Go and ask the officer, he will leave you alone to talk, I think he will help You can't stay in this hellish place, the people on this island are a bunch of lunatics! They are a bunch of murderous evil spirits!"
It was obvious that Mo Han was suddenly stimulated by something, and then he became confused and became incoherent.
Xu Shanshan was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "How do you know... that I am not worse than evil ghosts?"
Mo Han looked at him in surprise, Wan I didn't expect that she would say such words.
...It’s true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. When she truly sees the ugliest and most terrifying evil things in the world, I’m afraid she will regret it forever.
He didn't know what to advise her for a while, so he just smiled bitterly: "At a time like this, you should be a little more scared..."
He guessed that maybe it was the officer who promised to protect her on the island, or maybe she had some family background that gave her the courage to be so confident.
But Mo Han, who has experienced the ups and downs of the world, now does not trust anyone. The help that others extend can only be temporary, and the other party can take it back at any time.
He will not let himself be in this uneasy and compromised situation again.
Either death or strength!
Xu Shanshan reached out and grabbed Maomao, who was about to fly to see the "fun", and asked casually: "Are you scared? What did you see?"
Before Mo Han could speak, several dark-skinned men quickly chased after him: "Good boy, you are so brave, how dare you run away? People who have landed on this island, where do you expect to escape?"
Just hearing their laughing voices made Mo Han tremble, but he bravely looked over and said with a cold face: "What do you want to do?"
"Let's pray for God to come and cleanse the new prisoners in your boat."
As they said, they found that there seemed to be a person hiding behind Mo Han. When they turned their heads and looked, their eyes suddenly turned green. It's bright.
"Female?! Damn it, I didn't expect such a thin-skinned and tender little girl to come to the island again, hahahaha..."
They couldn't wait to bring Mo Han and Xu Shanshan to a cliff.
Xu Shanshan found the prisoners in that boat... and the officers and soldiers.
The officers and soldiers stood by and watched as the prisoners' hands and feet were tied up with ropes. With their backs to the vast sea, they were forced to drive to the edge of the cliff. The turbulent waves beat the axes and knives from time to time. A thunderous roar erupted on the coast.
It is no exaggeration to say that the prisoners were almost scared to death at this time.
Because once they accidentally slip and fall, there is no possibility of survival.
"Brother Qi, there is a woman among the prisoners in this boat!"
He pushed Xu Shanshan forward as if he were offering a treasure.
I saw a muscular man with his upper body naked and only a pair of trousers sitting on the stone. His skin was dark and shiny, his muscles were plump and strong, and his figure was generally slender and slim. Perfect, like a powerful and dangerous black panther.
He was surrounded by a large group of old prisoners from the archipelago, looking up to him like stars over the moon.
“Female?”
The man who was lazily basking in the sun finally opened his eyes. When he saw Xu Shanshan in his deep pupils, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
“She is really a woman.”
And she is a young and fresh girl in her prime.
He straightened up, his eyes wandered over every part of her body, raised the corners of his mouth and asked, "What is your name?"
"Xu Shanshan." She pronounced her name clearly. .
When she announced her name, a skinny seven-year-old child behind the prisoner suddenly opened his eyes with a mixture of shock and disgust, and he couldn't wait to squeeze in front of the person.
