Chapter 1066 - What A Coincidence
For instance, now, when she saw the five figures resting in front of her, Ye Jian silently hid behind a tree and used the leaves as her cover as she watched over the men.
The five men were all bald. They gathered and sat down together. Occasionally, from their expressions, she could tell that they were all very tense. Their pupils kept spinning and they appeared very anxious.
These people… were probably the ones the border guards wanted to find.
The leaves rustled loudly as the rainwater hit them. The voices of the men floated into Ye Jian’s ears intermittently.
“Brother Hong, how long do we have to walk? You should at least give us a time. We have been walking for the entire day but we still haven’t reached! The rain is so heavy and there are many snakes. We are both tired and hungry. If we continue like this, I’m afraid that we will collapse before we reach.”
“That’s right. Brother Hong, give us an exact time. A moment ago, you said that it’s right in front and the next, you said that it’s not far away. Now, we have been walking for an entire day. We are all frightened and agitated.”
“Brother Hong, are you sure that someone will come and fetch us?”
“Brother Hong, the four of us followed you loyally. When you said that someone is fetching us, we followed you without any hesitation. You have seen our sincerity. But, Brother Hong, please let us see your sincerity too.”
The four bald men spoke one after another to the man that was sitting in the middle. Ye Jian didn’t leave immediately. She waited to hear the man’s reply.
The sound of rain was very loud. To prevent herself from missing any part of the conversation, Ye Jian daringly moved half a meter forward. Then, she slowly laid down on the bushes while glancing over at the men secretly to prevent them from discovering her.
Brother Hong’s wound got infected so he was having a low fever. When he heard the other four men asking him for an explanation, Brother Hong sighed and replied, “Don’t you believe me? We do need to walk further but my men are indeed waiting for me too.”
“Why didn’t I ask my men to fetch me at the hospital? That’s simple. When I was in prison, I’ve already told them that I will be returning to the village on this day and continue leading them to great wealth! If you believe me, you can continue walking with me. If you don’t, I will not force you to stay with me. You can leave now!”
The four bald men went into prison because they were caught trafficking drugs. Why did they leave with Brother Hong? That was because before they came in, they had already heard of the famous Brother Hong! They knew that this person had control of a drug operation line!
But, when they saw no one fetching them after so long, they couldn’t help but suspect if the drug operation line in Brother Hong’s hands were wiped out by the police!
After he finished speaking, a younger bald man suddenly got excited. “Brother Hong, you, you… Are you saying that you will bring us to where you keep your ‘big goods’? Are you going to bring us there directly?”
“Of course. The four of you helped me to escape. I have to show some sincerity, right?” Brother Hong’s Chinese had a hometown accent too. It was from Sichuan. He sighed and looked as though he was really sincere.
The young man knew something so he got more and more excited. Ye Jian heard him saying, “Thank you, Brother Hong. Thank you. In the future, I will follow you. Thank you, thank you.”
Brother Hong waved his hand and replied, “You went through great lengths to get me out. I have to thank you. Let me rest for a few minutes before we continue our journey.”
“Alright, alright. Take a rest, take a rest.” The young man started worshipping Brother Hong like his ancestor. To him, Brother Hong was raining money.
