Chapter 111 I can’t sit still

When I saw the rising steam from the food again, I was sitting in a wooden house on a slope in the forest.

I ate grilled bamboo shoots.

While I was eating, I kept staring at him and the owner of the cabin.

……

Yes, I finally see hope again.

After he took me into a village.

In this village located on the slope of the mountain, many people knew this young man, but he just said hello to them briefly, walked over in a hurry, and led me into a slightly larger room. wooden house.

The wooden houses here are different from the ones I saw in the mountains. They are sturdier, a bit like the ones seen by drug lords in Hong Kong movies when they come to Jinshan Kok to purchase goods.

"Brother, I finally waited for you to come back. People in your village passed by here to spread the news that your father is ill again and is waiting for you to come back."

In the wooden house, a young man wearing the national costume of the Wa ethnic group opened his mouth first when he saw him. Unfortunately, he spoke all in Burmese, and I didn't understand a word of it.

"He just got addicted and ran out of money."

After he answered in Burmese, he took out the banknotes I stole from Aunt Fang from his pocket, pinched a few and handed them over: "Can you help me make a trip and send these money to my father? I have some other things going on.”

"Wow, red ticket!"

"Brother, are you rich?"

He shook his head, without saying a word, patted the other person's shoulder with his hand and said, "Thank you."

Then he entered the wooden house and walked towards the woman who was cooking.

"slim Shady."

He stood next to the woman and shouted, and took out a few more bills from the stack: "This is the money I owed when I passed by last time. I will pay it back to you now."

The woman looked back at him in the same surprise, but her hand reached out involuntarily.

"I remember that I came to Nawu Village to find someone to help with the fraud, didn't you? Why did you start using red tickets this time?"

He still saluted with folded hands and said without any explanation: "Can you get us something to eat?"

The woman looked at the money in her hand, then looked outside and said, "Then I'll kill a chicken for you?"

I didn't understand their conversation at all, so I thought this guy was going to have a big meal after taking my money.After all, the pigs here are tied up with chains and locked in trees and raised, so they should be very valuable, otherwise how could they be given so much money.

But he replied: "No, ordinary roasted bamboo shoots will be fine."

"Still so frugal."

After the woman answered with a smile on her face, I was already ready to make up for my long-lost stomach. But when I saw her bring the roasted bamboo shoots, I heard him say: "People in this place are very poor at raising livestock." It’s easy, and generally it won’t be sold.”

I retorted on the spot: "If you don't sell it, how can you raise it and support it?"

He may have sensed my anger, so he looked back at me and asked, "Are you going to eat?"

"Why don't you eat it!"

Why shouldn't I eat the bamboo shoots I exchanged for a Rolex and several thousand dollars in cash?
Until this moment, I can still often feel a twitching coldness when I'm covered in sweat under the sun. Why don't I eat?
I grabbed a piece of bamboo shoot and gnawed it. It was very fragrant!

From then on, we didn't say another word, and after I completely ate all the bamboo shoots that the woman brought, my stomach finally bulged.

"Brother, I'm going to give you money."

The young man who had greeted him before spoke and walked outside. He stopped and said, "Wait a minute."

After that, he got up and walked out.

At that time, I could still hear the conversation between the two.

"Can you do me one more favor?"

"Brother, say it."

"Help me kill someone."

"what!"

"I've run into something and if he doesn't die, I'm going to be in a lot of trouble."

"Brother, did those poisoners discover that you went into the mountains to catch orangutans?"

"So be it." "How many times have I advised you not to go again? Those people are inhumane, but you don't listen!"

"No... Then why did you bring this kind of person to our village?"

"Why don't you take me back to your village?"

He lowered his head, seeming to admit his selfishness, then stretched out his hand to hold the other person's arm and said: "Brother, I don't dare to kill anyone. You have served as a green soldier for those drug lords, so do me a favor..."

"How can I help? I had a gun at that time! Besides, look at him, he's so big and round, we may not be able to fight him."

The conversation stopped, and then I heard a loud shout: "You own a gun and you ask me to do this kind of thing!"

"I told you, I don't dare to kill anyone!"

"Can you be quieter?"

Having just eaten and drank enough, I noticed something was wrong with the way the woman looked at me. She always looked towards the door unnaturally and then turned back unnaturally.

This made me feel that the two young men at the door communicating in Burmese were not just saying they were used to it, but that they wanted to do something behind my back.

I looked through the crack in the door...

"Only you can help me. I managed to get him here with great difficulty."

"fifty thousand."

"what!"

"How about you do it yourself."

At this moment, I looked out along the door frame and saw him hand my Rolex to the young man: "Take this and sell it to a pawn shop in town. You can easily sell it for [-] yuan."

The boy looked back at me and put away the watch: "Brother, don't lie to me. This money may be very important here."

He patted the young man on the shoulder again, then turned and walked back into the house.

"Are you full?"

He was slightly nervous, but he pretended to be relaxed and smiled.

I never saw him smile all this time.

"I am full."

"My friend will take you there the rest of the way."

I suddenly raised my head and looked at him and asked, "Where are you sending me?"

"You didn't even ask me where I was going."

He was stunned, as if there was a loophole in the lie he was arranging.

"You have to run out anyway, right? My friend is very familiar with the surrounding terrain. It doesn't matter whether you want to go to Wa State or Shan State."

I stared into his eyes: "Aren't you afraid that after I leave..."

Of course he understood what I was talking about and explained, "My father is sick."

"Hey, do you remember what you said to me before?"

After I settled all my questions, I looked into his eyes and said, "You said there are not many people around here who can make orangutan velvet."

I originally wanted to threaten him.

I want to tell him that I'm not easy to mess with.

But after saying this, I felt the danger.

This is someone else's territory. No matter how ruthless I am, I'm still not as familiar as someone else.

Why are you threatening people at this time?
Had a falling out?

but!
He nodded obediently, smiled and said to me, "I know, so I brought you out of the mountains and specially found someone to send you away."

After hearing this sentence, I couldn't sit still!
 Thanks to my cousin for the chapter recommendation, I’m grateful!

  I would also like to thank all the book friends in my cousin’s family. Your kindness is the same as my cousin’s!
  I really have nothing to repay, I don’t know what to say anymore, thank you, thank you, thank you!
