Chapter 287 It’s him you’re holding hostage, why should you threaten me?
In the silent night.
In a desolate and uninhabited area, a dilapidated car repair shop stands alone.
Dim yellow light filtered through the oil-stained windows, barely illuminating a corner of the store. In this faint halo, three men lay motionless on the cold ground.
One of them had his legs twisted, apparently suffering a severe comminuted fracture.
His face was pale, his eyes were closed, and he was obviously unconscious.
The other two people lying next to him, one was obese and the other was skinny, but both were in equally bad condition.
Their bodies took on an unnatural posture, and their muscles and joints seemed to have been deliberately and precisely destroyed to the point of being unable to move.
What's even more frightening is that the throats of the two people also have obvious signs of damage, which makes them unable to make any sound even if they want to call for help. They can only squeeze out a few low and painful moans from the depths of their throats, in the empty space. echoed in the repair shop.
And in this scary scene.
Chen Yun, who was holding the dog, was extremely calm.
Compare pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
Chen Yun, who has the ability to perceive emotions, chose to take action directly the moment the other party revealed his murderous intention.
"Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger" is an idiom used to describe a person who pretends to be weak, stupid or inconspicuous on the surface, but is actually very smart and capable, and who shows his true strength at critical moments to achieve his goals. purpose.
But for Chen Yun, why should he pretend to be a pig?
I can't bear it at all. If you dare to show your face, you'll be killed!
The whole process was extremely decisive.
Never too much.
After all, it would be too troublesome to say something when stepping on an ant.
Looking at the unconscious and speechless guys in front of him, Chen Yun turned around and walked out of the room with a calm expression.
To this.
The two men, one fat and one thin, whose throats were crippled, had a trace of joy in their eyes.
Chen Yun's image in their hearts at this moment has unsurprisingly risen to the level of a devil.
So when I saw him leaving.
Both of them were thankful that they were not unconscious.
As Chen Yun's footsteps gradually faded away, the joy in the eyes of the two men who were still awake gradually dissipated, replaced by complex emotions.
Although unable to speak, their eyes were full of complex emotions - fear, anger, helplessness, and deep regret.
The clean movements, irresistible power, and wind-like speed are just like action actors with special effects in movies.
The two armed men were killed instantly without even inflicting any damage.
They realize.
I underestimated the person in front of me.
Fortunately, they were spared for some reason, and maybe they still have a chance to survive.
Thinking like this.
The thin man suddenly looked around with wide eyes.
For some reason, he felt a strong burning sensation emerging around him, and this feeling was getting stronger and stronger.
…………
Outside the auto repair shop.
The red light in Chen Yun's eyes gradually dissipated.
The air around the eyes that was heated to the point of distortion subsided.
However, the auto repair shop standing in front of him in the no-man's land was on fire.
The ability of his heat vision to heat up from a distance allowed him to easily create such a fire with just one glance, and the three people inside who could not move could only wait to die.
at first.
The flames spread quietly from the edge of a window, and soon spread like wild beasts.
Tongues of fire licked the old wooden structure, devouring everything that was combustible.
Thick smoke poured from the cracks in the windows and doors, forming black clouds billowing in the night sky.
As the fire intensified, the light of the flames became more and more dazzling, making everything around it seem to be plated with a layer of gold.
Inside the auto repair shop, the once cold and static machinery was now illuminated by the firelight, reflecting a trace of beating light and shadow.
Sparks flew everywhere, landing on the ground, on the tool boxes, and even on the men lying still on the ground.
The pungent smell of burning oil and plastic, mixed with the smell of heated metal, permeated the entire space.
The men's increasingly low screams were covered by the sound of burning flames.
The fire grew larger and larger, and eventually the entire building was engulfed in flames.
Tiles from the roof began to fall off and walls began to crumble. The structure of the auto repair shop gradually weakened under the high temperatures and eventually collapsed under the strain.
There was a loud rumbling noise.
Chen Yun stood not far away, watching all this happen. There wasn't much expression on his face, just a touch of calm.
Caressing the silly dog Bai Jin in his arms.
There was no fluctuation in his mood.
Although he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately as a citizen of his motherland.
But if he is really offended, he will never show any mercy.
He is not a holy mother. He doesn't mind relying on violence to achieve a shocking effect, and he doesn't mind using violence to carry out the most direct revenge.
After all, if you have such power, you still have to be angry.
So what does he need such power for?
If in the future someone puts pressure on him with justice and human life, Chen Yun will just continue to kill them indifferently.
It's him you're holding hostage, why are you threatening me?
certainly.
If someone is holding someone close to him hostage, it may make him hesitate for a while.
But he believed he had gained the power to protect them before that happened.
Even if not, I must have gained the strength to bring everyone together to reopen.
so.
He has no scruples about killing people.
That's why.
The three men thought they had a way out.
In reality it was just a more painful death.
It was even said that in order to ensure that they died cleanly, Chen Yun even stayed near the auto repair shop and watched the fire burn, watching them being burned bit by bit and completely devoid of life.
As the auto repair shop completely collapsed, the flames gradually weakened, leaving only embers swaying gently in the night wind and making crackling sounds.
In the night, only a piece of scorched earth and debris remained.
What was once an auto repair shop is now just a pile of ashes, as if it never existed.
Until now.
After confirming that the three coke bodies could no longer jump around, they would never be able to come alive and seek revenge in the future.
Chen Yuncai took steps to leave here with peace of mind.
After all, it is not his style to cut the grass without eradicating the roots.
···························
The sky gradually turned white, and the eastern sky began to be rendered with a touch of faint orange. It indicates that a new day is about to begin.
On this vast loess plateau, everything seemed extremely peaceful, with only the occasional passing wind breaking this moment of silence.
The Loess Plateau, this ancient land located in northwest China, is world-famous for its unique landforms and long history.
At this moment, it is welcoming the dawn with a calm attitude.
Li Sihai, a big man from Northeast China, drives an old but sturdy gray car.
Move forward slowly in this no man's land.
His figure and the slightly aged car cast long shadows in the rising sun, as if they were the only travelers in this desolate land.
Li Sihai was wearing a dark jacket at the moment, paired with a pair of jeans that had been washed white. His face bore the traces of time, but also revealed an indomitable tenacity.
After bidding farewell to Chen Yun and leaving Lingchuan County, he quickly went to the small county town not far from Lingchuan County to replenish some supplies.
Then he originally planned to set off, but found that the circuits in his old driving recorder had been burned out at some point, and he didn't even save the interesting experience after meeting Chen Yun. So I found a store in the town and bought a new driving recorder.
Later, seeing that it was getting late, we rested for the night.
Then left there early in the morning.
Outside the car window.
Pieces of dry land came into view, covered with a thin layer of loess, and occasionally a few tenaciously growing grasses could be seen dotted among them.
There were almost no trees on the land, only a few low shrubs scattered here and there.
There is a faint earthy smell in the air, which is unique to the Loess Plateau.
As the sun rises higher, the light becomes brighter and the previously dim vision becomes clearer.
Li Sihai turned on the car radio and tried to find some signals, but in this almost isolated place, except for the occasional noise or two, there was more silence.
He was not depressed by this, but felt a rare sense of tranquility and peace.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why he chose to come here alone, so that he could stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city and find inner peace.
The wheels making a "rustling" sound as they ran over the sand was the only sound that could be heard at the moment.
Occasionally, a hare or other small wild animal will suddenly emerge from the roadside, bringing an unexpected surprise to this monotonous journey.
certainly.
For Li Sihai, the most surprising thing is actually the various people he met along the way.
The young man holding the dog yesterday left some impression on him.
Looking at the bamboo flying sword hanging on the rearview mirror of his car, he couldn't help but smile.
This was given by the young man named Chen Yun.
Although the overall material is average, the carving process looks very good.
Anyway, he liked it immediately after taking one look at it.
Before leaving, Chen Yun said that because the material of this thing has a traditional Chinese medicine smell, it has a soothing effect when sleeping next to it.
But last night when he was sleeping in the hotel.
I left this thing in the car in the parking lot and forgot to take it with me to the hotel. I haven't tried its so-called calming effect.
‘Perhaps, we can try it tonight? ’
Thinking like this, Li Sihai was a little curious about the calming effect of this gift.
For him who travels all year round.
No matter how good your sleep quality is, you will often be unable to fall asleep.
Environmental changes, jet lag, mood swings and other reasons can easily disrupt travelers' biological clocks, leading to poor sleep.
so.
He wanted to try this so-called calming effect.
Thinking.
Li Sihai suddenly noticed an unexpected place on the side of the road ahead.
That's a... house?
Li Sihai is not sure.
Because at first glance, the house can no longer be seen as a house at the moment.
Most of the place has been charred into carbon.
There were only a few beams left to support the main structure, and most places collapsed.
Smelling the smell of ashes that has not dissipated around me.
Li Sihai understood that this place was originally a house, but it had been burned down recently.
Thinking.
Li Sihai parked the car and pulled over.
When approaching the scorched earth and debris, you can still feel a hint of warmth.
The place had apparently just experienced a fire.
Judging from the remaining signs, the fire must have been very violent.
Think so.
Li Sihai took out his cell phone and tried to call the police.
But there is no signal here.
Judging from the location here, it is estimated that you have to walk a long distance along the road to get a signal.
Li Sihai put down the phone and looked around, trying to find any clues to see if anyone was injured in the fire or needed help.
After shouting a few times, no one responded.
I don’t know if the people here escaped? Still buried inside.
Judging from the lack of ruts on the surrounding ground, there was a high probability that he had not escaped.
If buried inside, there is a high probability of death.
However, we still need to do a little search to see if anyone is buried inside.
However, it doesn't look like a good place to search.
Much of the building's structure has collapsed.
In many places, there should be dangerous structures that can affect the whole body at a moment's notice, and can only barely maintain stability without external intervention.
It is estimated that if you move it a little bit, it will pour out a piece.
But ponder for a moment.
He decided to take a closer look at the scene to see if he could find any useful clues.
He moved carefully through the wreckage, watching every step he took to avoid stepping on fragile structures and causing something dangerous.
Although there are no obvious signs of danger, this is an accident scene after all, and safety always comes first.
After a simple search, Li Sihai did not find any valuable information. He could only vaguely see from some burnt file fragments and some leftover machinery that this seemed to be a small auto repair shop.
He also found some daily necessities.
Understand that there should be people living here.
But the workload to continue exploring is too great, and the remaining areas are too dangerous and look like they will collapse if not careful.
So he thought for a while and decided to go back to the car and take a rest.
But he hasn’t taken two steps yet.
He vaguely noticed the ashes somewhere that he had ignored before.
That strange shape.
He couldn't help but come closer and take a look.
Then he screamed and backed away.
That's a burnt hand!
The originally full fingers were now twisted into a strange angle, as if they were forcibly twisted by some invisible force.
The skin changes from dark brown to black, and the texture is rough and hard, like old tree bark that has been exposed to the sun for a long time.
The entire hand had shrunk significantly due to dehydration caused by the burns.
The texture on the palm becomes blurred.
In some places, the skin has been completely scorched and peeled off, exposing the deeper structures underneath, and even the edges of the bones can be seen.
The gaps between the fingers also became more obvious, as if every bone had been narrowed and held in a rigid position.
Suddenly seeing a burnt human hand in no man's land, Li Sihai was confused at first.
Subsequently.
The intense fear made Li Sihai swallow his saliva.
He got into the car without looking back, stepped on the accelerator and headed towards the nearest county seat.
If someone dies.
Then go to the police immediately!
That is no longer an area or thing that he can control.
As for whether the police didn't believe him because he was the first person to discover the incident, of course his newly bought driving recorder would prove it.
