Count of Monte Cristo

When Lin Ke woke up, he was already in a dark cave. His hands and feet were bound and his mouth was sealed.

Lin Ke opened his mouth wide and tried to make a sound, but found that he couldn't make any sound at all. It seems that the plots in movies and TV dramas where the mouth is stuffed with rags and can't make a sound are not completely deceptive.

The surrounding light was very dark, and it took a long time for Lin Ke to squint his eyes to see the surrounding environment clearly. The cave was very empty, and there were a few robbers sleeping beside him.

Lin Ke wanted to move his body, but his limbs were stiff and his hands and feet were numb.He touched the stone, and the rolling sound of the stone alarmed the robbers.

One of the robbers, who looked very small, came over, kicked Lin Ke twice, and shouted in Italian: "You bastard, can you live in peace? Damn it!"

Lin Ke was kicked so that he leaned against the wall, and then he didn't dare to move.The robber saw his appearance, knelt down again, and patted his face, "Calm down, don't play tricks. We will let you go when we get the money."

Lin Ke widened his eyes and shook his head violently.

The man slapped him across the face, and the cloth on his mouth was torn off.

Lin Ke's mouth was bleeding, he spat out two mouthfuls of blood, and asked, "Are you guys with Wampa?"

"Hey—you're very interesting, boy. To tell you the truth, your wampa betrayed you, and we've been eyeing you for a long time, the oriental guy who lives in the Mel Hotel. It's hard to catch you, this The ransom is enough for me to enjoy for a long time...haha..." The other robbers also laughed maliciously when they heard what he said.

"Don't try to escape, as long as you are obedient and the British guy with you is willing to pay, you can go back safely. If your friend is not willing...hehe..." The pause was self-evident.

Another robber said, "Is the Vampana boy reliable?"

Lin Ke noticed that the young robber bumped the shoulder of the talking robber, and the robber stopped suddenly in the middle of speaking.

"Is he forced by you?" Linke asked suddenly.

"Go away!" The man kicked Lin Ke again, and Lin Ke groaned.The robber wanted to beat him again, but was stopped by the people next to him, "Don't beat him, if you kill him, you won't get any money."

Lin Ke also turned his head away silently. A hero does not suffer from immediate losses. He kept silent and tried his best to reduce his sense of existence.

The group of pirates looked at him for a while, felt bored and returned to where they sat cursing, and began to sleep or play cards.

Lin Ke stayed in the corner, his hands and feet were bound, his mouth was salty, and the smell of blood was extremely strong, and the place where he was kicked was also painful, and his breathing was throbbing.

Lin Ke tilted his head and thought carefully about his current situation. It was extremely dark in the cave, and Edmund should be anxious. He estimated that it had been eight or nine hours since he woke up from a coma... he felt that he was really a burden.He was depressed, thinking about how to escape.

After a long time, Lin Ke lost consciousness all over his body, but his stomach started growling.

Those robbers didn't seem to notice the change of time at all. Just when Lin Ke wanted to ask if there was anything to eat, five or six tall robbers rushed in. They also brought back a woman, that woman Weeping.

One of the robbers had thick eyebrows, and he threw the woman beside Lin Ke.Lin Ke turned his head to look at the woman, only to realize that she was very young, about 20 years old, with red hair.Her eyes were red and swollen, she was pitiful, and she was sobbing softly.

"Why are you crying! Quiet!" the man yelled.

The girl was startled, she shrank her shoulders in fear, and leaned towards Lin Ke.They didn't tie up the girl too.

The girl's tears formed a river, crying silently.Lin Ke watched a group of robbers gather together, probably discussing something.He whispered: "Don't cry first. Don't provoke them."

The girl glanced at him, as if she had found the backbone, and leaned towards him again, almost leaning on Lin Ke.

"You were also tied here? Huh..." the girl lowered her head after asking, tears almost fainting on Lin Ke's clothes.

"... Move to the side." Lin Ke said with difficulty, his head was covered with sweat, and his limbs were no longer his own.

The girl moved to the left obediently, and then said intermittently: "I'm so scared, I hope Kareni can save me..." Lin Ke didn't speak, and the girl said again: "Kareni is my lover, he It's one of the bandits..." The voice faltered.

Lin Ke could only nod his head, and the girl saw that his face was pale, his lips were purple, his head was sweating, and she asked in horror, "You, what's wrong with you?"

"Can you help me...untie the rope on my hands?" Linke secretly paid attention to the surrounding environment, the group of robbers did not know what to say, they all laughed, and did not notice the two people here at all.

The girl hesitated, Lin Ke's eyes were full of pleading, the girl still turned around and carefully untied the rope in Lin Ke's hand.

"What are you two doing!" A roar came, and the two were startled. Lin Ke leaned against the rock wall and dared not move. Fortunately, the robber didn't come over, but just roared: "Don't move, don't even think about it!" I want to run away, my bullet has no eyes!"

Both of them breathed lightly, and the man left without noticing anything.

After the man left, the girl pursed her lips and quickly helped Lin Ke untie the rope, allowing him to move his arms.

The light was completely dimmed.The robbers lit the torches, and the fire illuminated the whole cave.

The girl turned her face to Lin Ke, hiding herself.

Lin Ke knew her worries. The law of robbers is strict. Anyone who snatches a young woman should go to the person who snatched her first, and then the rest of the people will take turns to enjoy her. Only death can escape the sea of ​​suffering.He also tried his best to cover the greedy eyes of the girl by leaning sideways.Probably the boss hadn't come back yet, so although the robbers' eyes were so fierce and greedy, no one came forward to harass the girl.

Lin Ke quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.There was an unpleasant smell in the cave. I didn't notice it when I was thrown in. Now that I stayed for a long time, I felt dizzy and chest tight.Lin Ke was in a daze. The robber over there coughed again. It sounded like he had been ill for a long time. When he coughed, many people coughed and sneezed. Some robbers had red noses and bloodshot eyes...Look carefully , Their faces were all red, like a fire.And he has a weird temper, yelling something loudly, as if he is about to explode after being bored for a long time.

The air in this cave is suffocating, and the bad smell spreads in the air.

The gang of robbers began to eat, but hardly anyone cared about the two of them.The smell of spaghetti permeated the dense cave, mixed with the coughing of the bandits, making Lin Ke nauseous. He was very hungry, but he had no appetite at all.

The girl was also enduring, she had already stopped her tears, and said this to Lin Ke in a low voice, probably to relieve her own tension, she told Lin Ke that her name was Lida, how she and his lover fell in love, he had to Knowing how anxious he was when he was captured by the robbers, he also said that he would be able to bring him back safely.Lida nodded vigorously while talking to convince herself to believe in her lover, and she will be safe!

Lin Ke's hands had already recovered. He covered his abdomen with his hands and rubbed gently to relieve some pain. His mouth was also broken, and it hurt when he opened his mouth. So Lin Ke could only nod and smile silently to comfort Lida.Lida was a little nervous, her eyeballs moved wildly, her mouth twitched, like a wounded little rabbit anxiously, and she could repeat her words several times. Lin Ke could see that she was very frightened, but he had to pretend to be calm and dare not cry.

"He will definitely come to save me, Kareni, please, God!" Lida prayed softly.

The robber over there seemed to have finished his meal. A group of people came over. Lin Ke hurriedly pretended that he was not untied. He did not find that Lin Ke's hands were free.

The robbers pushed Lin Ke and Lida out of the cave.

Outside the cave is a piece of green grass, the moonlight is bright and the breeze is blowing.Such a night is accompanied by endless crimes.

The two of them were thrown on the grass, and the other robbers looked at them with a smile, like a cat playing with a mouse.

A robber came to grab Lida's hand, and Lida yelled crazily!

The robbers laughed wildly, another person touched Lida's face, Lida dodged frantically, and she hid towards Lin Ke's side.

Lin Ke was in unspeakable distress, he clearly felt the bandits' ready to move while struggling, Lida was afraid that she was in danger!

Lin Ke's heart was heavy!

"What are you doing!" A roar came!

A fierce figure rushed in and pushed those robbers out!

His hair stood on end, and he resolutely pushed and yelled at the robbers, his actions were fierce.

Lida threw herself into his arms excitedly, and he also hugged Lida tightly, burying his head on Lida's shoulder.The other robbers might be a little apprehensive, and stepped aside cursing.

He kissed Lida's cheek, "Honey, I'm here."

"Carleni!"

When he raised his head, Lin Ke could see his face clearly.

Lin Ke felt familiar when he saw him. The man was about the same age as Lin Ke, and Lida smiled happily at him.

The man walked up to Lin Ke and Lida, glanced at the robber over there quickly, and then said to Lida: "Don't worry, I have sent someone to send a letter to your father, and I will ask Kukumeto for help." , let him not bully you. My love."

Then Lin Ke widened his eyes, as if he saw something unbelievable.

He is Fabre!

Fabre!

Fabre frowned, apparently not recognizing Lin Ke.

"Fabry, I'm Eisen?" Lin Ke asked tentatively.

Fabre seemed to be thinking, and finally said lightly: "Oh, it turned out to be you."

Lin Ke looked at him disappointed. He thought he was a friend, but he didn't expect that the meeting has become a stranger.

"Your friends will come to save you." Fabre said, and then turned his attention to Lida.

Fabre comforted Lida a few more words in a low voice, but was called away by someone.

He said to Lida: "Cucumeto is back. I'll be back as soon as I go. Stay here and don't move around."

Lida nodded indifferently, she obviously didn't want Bray to leave.

Lin Ke watched him go to a tall man, who was a head taller than all the robbers.

Lin Ke heard faint voices coming from over there.

"Is the mission complete?"

"It's done, sir," replied Carlini. "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock Lida's father will be here with the money."

"Very well, now, let's have a good night. The girl is pretty enough for you. Now, I'm not selfish, let's go to the boys and draw lots for her.'

Kareni said something quickly.

Kukumetto laughed and said: "Don't worry, my dear partner, I will repay your life-saving grace. I will not deal with this woman according to the usual rules."

Carleni's shoulders relaxed, and the acceptance of Kukumetuo obviously calmed his fearful heart.

Kukumetto patted him on the shoulder, speaking loudly, as if speaking to them on purpose. "Hey! It's dawn now, go and prepare to meet our rich friend."

He glanced at Lin Ke from the air, and said again: "Our poor little child can't stand the torture anymore, haha..."

Kareni's body movements were strong, "Can't we let Mitusen go?"

"This is an order!" Kukumetto said in a cold voice, "You still want me to go back on my word and let your lover die here..." He motioned Carleni to look around, and the robbers' eyes were stuck in their throats.

Carlini gritted her teeth desperately. "I go!"

Cukumetto walked towards the other robbers and said, "You need to be faster."

Carleni came over and stayed with Lida for a while, and finally when he left and passed Lin Ke, he suddenly bent down and touched Lin Ke.Lin Ke turned over and heard him scolding: "What is the name of the ghost! Damn it!"

Then he left bitterly.

Lin Ke sighed, carefully touching the gun under his body - it was given to him by Kareni.

Lin Ke carefully looked at the robbers around him. Their boss had already arrived. Kukumetto came over to see them both, but he didn't say anything, but his eyes were fierce, and his hair and beard were so long that they almost covered the whole picture. Face.He whispered a few words into a robber's ear, and Lin Ke felt that the eyes of those robbers became more greedy and disgusted.

Then Kukumeito said: "Midson! I will leave this place to you, I will go to rest. Remember to take those nasty medicines after you are done! You fools who ran for their lives made this place a mess!" He left after speaking.

The bandit named Amitabha came out. He was a big fat man like a bear.

The way he looked at Lin Ke and Lida made people feel chills in their hearts.
