sincerity of lies

The driver's eyes widened.

The slit on the white and fat man's face was opened, and a pair of bloodshot fierce eyes stared straight out. As soon as the eyes were exposed, the calmness and kindness that the driver showed them before disappeared immediately, and only walking through was left. The cunning and viciousness of a rat in the gutter.

"How did you find out...!" the driver growled.

"Seeing how unwilling you are to ask this question, don't you really think that your plan is foolproof?" Ji Xun laughed, "You guys are pretty smart. You know that when people are out of town, you probably know how to call when you want to travel, so you just choose The blind spot of the taxi driver is used to ambush us."

"The person who rushed out at the entrance of the hotel and pushed me away is also your companion, right? You parked at the side earlier. With this episode, you can calmly and accurately become the car we will definitely get on.

Afterwards, use the taxi's navigation that is always on to send the location to your accomplice in real time, which avoids the risk of exposure caused by chasing the car. When the time is right, there is an accidental rear-end collision in the deep mountains and forests. Ran was dizzy from being hit, you stabbed twice in the back of your hand, bang bang.

It's a great plan, but unfortunately, most people don't even bother to check the taxi driver's license plate because of the trouble, but I just checked it.You only changed the photo of the ID plate, and did not hack the database, you are too careless. "

When Ji Xun got in the car, he played with his mobile phone and checked his job number online.

"So I found out so early." The driver sneered.

"This is just one of the flaws. There are also many Didi drivers driving with other people's ID cards. The problem cannot be generalized. In order to further confirm, I talked to Huo Ranyin about the story of the Buddha statue. It is so thrilling and frightening, how can you restrain yourself? Don't look back at yourself, don't interject a word—it's very problematic at first glance."

"Just because of this? Many brothers don't even bother to listen to customers."

"It is true that this possibility cannot be ruled out. So I gave directions indiscriminately. You only care about whether I have persecution paranoia, but no matter how normal my brother is, he always reminds me that this customer needs to pay more tolls for detours. I will bear their responsibility for this part. irresponsible."

"..." The driver was finally speechless.

"By the way, by the way, even a villain, in a situation where his companion is bleeding and he is being controlled, won't immediately worry about where he has exposed his flaws - this is not reading a novel, Still thinking about solving the riddle." Ji Xun, "So, let me make a bold guess, you are stalling for time, and you probably have accomplices who are coming after Huo Ranyin and me?"

"..." The driver panicked.

"It's not a big problem." Ji Xun smiled at the driver again, "We also have accomplices, and they are coming for you."

Since they already knew that there was a problem with the driver, Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin of course would not try their best to fight alone.As early as when Ji Xun ran from the back compartment to the front compartment on the road, Huo Ranyin got in touch with the local police in Qin City.

The mice in the dark are not easy to get rid of, and it is best to catch them all now.

"..." The driver began to contort his face.

"Okay, you talk too much." Huo Ranyin interrupted Ji Xun.

Then, with a "swipe", a pistol slid along the roof of the car to Ji Xun.

Ji Xun stretched out his hand to hold it down.

"Go to the side and rest." Huo Ranyin said, "I'll tie him up."

"Let me help you, you probably can't handle it by yourself." Ji Xun evaluated the driver's weight while carefully avoiding the sharp point of the protective fender.

"Come here, what I have to carry is not one person, but two people." Huo Ranyin sneered.

"..." Ji Xun.

"Stay aside and be quiet." Huo Ranyin said, "Call 120 again."

"All right." What else could Ji Xun do?He could only follow the captain's instructions, holding a pistol, and went to find the phone in his pocket, "I'll wait for you next to you."

He didn't turn around, but walked back to the side of the road, his eyes flicked over the crooked green taxi, and then over the two killers who got out of the white car and were tied to the rear of the car...

Speaking of which, these two killers are tough guys.

Ji Xun was slightly surprised.

He was obviously shot, bleeding, and didn't faint. He should be in severe pain. Why did these two killers pretend to be heroes when he was talking just now, and kept silent?

He also saw Huo Ranyin dragging the driver out of the driver's seat.

This is also helpless.

If the car was still in good condition, the driver could be strapped directly to the seat, but now that the car has been hit in such a distorted state, it is not appropriate to put a person—even a killer—in the driver's seat.

The driver's obese body was like a piece of unappetizing fat, and he left the taxi a little bit, appearing in Ji Xun's sight.

First the head, then the body, then the feet...

When the driver's feet left the taxi completely, a strange sneer suddenly appeared on the driver's distorted face.

He lowered his head and bit his collar, the collar was turned upside down, exposing the leads hidden inside, and he turned his head violently again!

"drop--"

There was a small sound, like a mobile phone receiving a message, or a water drop falling into a pool.

But this is neither the sound of a mobile phone nor the sound of water droplets!

"Huo Ranyin!" Ji Xun roared instantly, "Run—it's a bomb, he has a bomb strapped to his body!"

Huo Ranyin's reaction was faster than Ji Xun's roar.

When the sound sounded, he had already let go, folded his body, and rushed out like a cheetah with all its muscles tensed!

After the fast-moving retinas of the eyeballs caught this scene, Ji Xun finally responded to the frenzied alarm bell in his brain representing the will to survive, and reacted at the same time, turning his head and running away from the taxi!

At this moment, time is both stretched and folded.

The sense that human beings rely on to measure the length of time has completely lost its effect. Ji Xun can only realize it in a disorienting way, as if before he turned around, or as if he had already run a few steps...

The explosion came loudly.

Air surge.

Ji Xun was violently lifted up by the air wave, and he seemed to see a picture in his eyes, seeing the driver flying into the sky.

That fat white body wrapped in colorful clothes really flew into the air like a balloon. It looked fat and thick, but it was like a cloth wrapped in paper. It was gently pulled by two invisible giant hands, and it fell apart. The goddess scattered flowers.

He fell heavily again, his internal organs seemed to be shifted in an instant, his breath was cut off, a golden light shone before his eyes, and fiery red rose...

The out-of-control numbness and panic of the body, as well as the worry about another person, were like flames in front of his eyes, rampaging through Ji Xun's body until he coughed violently when he was lying on the ground, he seemed to find a place to vent, It rushed back to the earth with its piercing cough.

Ji Xun got up, fell down again, fell down, got up again.

He didn't know what was wrong with his body, and he couldn't exert any strength at all. He finally stood up, bumped and stumbled, and walked forward crookedly.

His vision was still shaken and he couldn't see clearly. The shock this time was much worse than the shock caused by the previous car accident. There were only distorted lines and overlapping light and shadow.

But the problem... is not a big problem.

He remembered the direction Huo Ranyin fled from before, so he had to locate the car...the burning fireball...then follow the direction he remembered, and he could see...

The red light jumped suddenly and overwhelmed the golden light.

Ji Xun looked at the colors in front of him dully, until he noticed that the red light was shaking up and down with the swing of his arms, and then he suddenly realized that he was burned because he was too close to the car.

Is it burning clothes, or burning arms?

Ji Xun couldn't feel it. At this time, his body was like a machine that had to go to the rework field for emergency repairs. It was scattered up and down.

I can't care so much now.

Ji Xun had already located the vehicle, and quickly drew out the possible direction of Huo Ranyin in his mind. He took off his coat, half of the flames were gone, and ran forward, but he fell to the ground after only two steps.

His palm touched the rough ground, and also pressed something soft.

Yes... yes... ears.

One ear, alone, rests in the palm of his hand.

Ji Xun couldn't see it.

Whose ear is this?

eyes, eyes...

He tried his best to close his eyes, then opened them again, closed them, then opened them again - still couldn't see clearly!

His fingers began to tremble, and tremblingly touched the outer ear, pinna, earlobe...

His hands that were tightly holding his ears loosened suddenly.

There are no pierced ears.

Ji Xun stood up again, and he walked to the place he was looking for, and took a few more steps, seven or eight steps... almost, it should be here... But he still didn't find Huo Ranyin, he knelt on the ground, Creeping, groping forward little by little... groping...

He touched someone.

Ji Xun still couldn't see it, but the moment his palm touched the body, he had already recognized it...

It's Huo Ranyin!

This incomparably determined thought split into Ji Xun's mind like lightning, and split his nerves that were constricted into a ball due to tension and fear. He suddenly exhaled half a breath, but quickly held his breath, and immediately approached Huo Ranyin's face, It wasn't until he felt Huo Ranyin's breath lightly on his face like wet fluff that the remaining half of his breath hanging in his chest was really released.

The body, which had no feeling at all, slowly seemed to come to life at this time, from head to toe, there was no place that was not painful.

"Hold……"

He groaned in pain, and went to look at Huo Ranyin who was in his arms.

I don't know if it's because of a little relaxation, but the eyes that could only see light and lines clearly now start to outline specific outlines...

He was gradually able to see Huo Ranyin's body clearly...the body is still intact...but the legs—

Ji Xun's heart tightened again.

Blood rushed to his brain, and he felt the neurons in his forehead jumping.

He saw that Huo Ranyin's leg was bleeding, and the opponent's leg was injured.

He tore off his clothes indiscriminately, and tied them tightly around Huo Ranyin's thighs to prevent the blood from flowing freely.

But the throbbing nerves were not soothed by a first-aid measure.

Except for the legs, he saw charred and blackened flesh.

It was Huo Ranyin's back.

Huo Ranyin's back was directly impacted, a lot of clothes were blown to pieces, only a few strands were still hanging on his body, those strands were completely soaked in blood and ash, sticking to his body dirty, he didn't know I can't see if there is any bone injury. His blurred and shaking vision can't make out more details, so he can only carefully avoid the place where Huo Ranyin was most seriously injured...

"120, Huo Ranyin, 120, can you hear my voice?..."

Nervous to the extreme, the head he was so proud of in the past didn't seem to be so easy to use, and he actually had to rely on muttering to figure out what to do now.

When Ji Xun took out the phone with trembling hands, and flicked his thumbs randomly on the broken screen, the person in his arms suddenly coughed and slowly opened his eyes.

"Huo Ranyin!" Ji Xun called out, "Are you okay?"

Huo Ranyin's eyes were distracted, and it took him a long time to focus on Ji Xun's face. Then he opened his mouth, and there was a panic-stricken silence for several seconds. Then, Ji Xun's ears caught Huo Ranyin's voice:

"……not too good……"

"It's a little...shaky..."

"You may have a concussion, don't move, I'll call the emergency number—" Ji Xun said immediately.

"No...it's...the ground..." Huo Ranyin's voice was very low, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a word from his throat. His face was already pale, and the blood was carrying his life, bit by bit. Drips oozed from his back.

"Here..." Ji Xun closed his mouth as soon as he said a word.

He felt it too.

The ground was shaking silently.

His eyes moved away from Huo Ranyin's face, and looked towards the end of the road.

At the end, the shadow of a vehicle appeared, not a police car, but a red car.

Is it the police car?Is it a passerby's car?Or... the killer's car?

Ji Xun didn't have time to make a more precise distinction. When he caught the car, his body had already started to move. He suddenly picked up Huo Ranyin who was obviously unable to move on the ground, gritted his teeth and ran forward.

This is the countryside, no people, no houses, only woods.

Behind where he and Huo Ranyin are now, there is a slope, but in winter, the vegetation is not abundant, and there are only dead trees that look like hanged trees, and there is no shelter at all.

Ji Xun led Huo Ranyin to the two cars ahead.

The explosion didn't completely blow up the two cars. Although the flames were burning, at this moment, only they could serve as temporary shelters...

"Ji Xun..."

Ji Xun looked at the car in front of him, and heard Huo Ranyin's voice in his ears.

Because Huo Ran's voice was low and weak, he was lying on his side in Ji Xun's arms, his face rushed towards Ji Xun's body, so he should not be able to see the surrounding scene.But his voice was so clear and calm, as if he had fully grasped the situation and made the best judgment.

"Your hand is injured and has been bleeding."

"If you can hold on, don't worry."

"What's wrong with your eyes?"

"It's a bit shaking...it's hard to see clearly."

"In other words, you can't shoot."

"Can shoot."

"But can't aim."

The situation was urgent, and the two asked and answered quickly.Huo Ranyin finally said: "If you are like this, staying here is also a burden."

Huo Ranyin's face was so pale that it was transparent.

He drew the pistol, which he had so badly wounded, but it was still firmly in his palm.

He grimly ordered:

"Put me down and get out of here."

"what……"

Ji Xun couldn't help laughing, countless words boiled in his heart like boiling water, he wanted to say everything, but he didn't say anything.

He seized the last two steps, threw himself behind the two cars, then gripped the pistol tightly, and turned to stare at the red car behind him.

Assuming there is still a chance, it is not the killer who catches up, but a passing vehicle, a police officer in plain clothes...

The car is getting closer, getting closer.

Steady and steady, approach them quickly and swiftly.

His heart slid all the way as the car approached all the way, slipping into the bottomless abyss.

He tried his best to look forward, trying to see clearly the appearance of the driver, but his shaking sight only outlined a blank space for him, a blank space of desolation and indifference.

He was sweating intermittently, and the sweat soaked all his clothes.

Until Huo Ranyin raised his gun suddenly, until the window of the red car lowered.

"boom--"

Chapter [-] Blood is flowing, flames are burning, gunpowder smoke is all over their bodies, and life hangs above the second hand.

The gunfire didn't seem to have stopped since it started.

This time, the god of luck didn't seem to be on the side of Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin. The person in the red car was none other than the killer who came with murderous intent and blood.

Fortunately, there are bunkers.

The two cars, one vertical and the other horizontal, directly blocked most of the road in the countryside that is not spacious, and the remaining gap is definitely not enough for the red car to drive over.

For a while, although they couldn't get out, the people in the car didn't dare to get down rashly and approach them.

Now, compared to the killer in the red car, maybe the tongue in the white car is sticking out, greedily trying to lick their flames...

Countless thoughts swirled in Ji Xun's mind like a spiral.

He also fired the same shot as Huo Ranyin at first, but only fired once.

The shaking sight couldn't be aimed at all, and he tried his best, but hit the roof of the red car, but Huo Ranyin, who obviously couldn't see his entire back, and his arms were still as hard and straight as steel bars, shot at the red car in total. Take two shots.

One shot hit the car door, and the other shot directly into the arm of the man by the window.

A howl came immediately.

It was also at this time that Huo Ranyin's voice sounded.

"It's still too late to run." The man hiding behind the white car, who was extremely calm from the beginning to the end, said suddenly, "They are going to kill me. Before I die, even if they see you running away, they won't divide their troops to chase you. The police are right behind, as long as you wait for a few minutes, you can be rescued. After you are rescued... avenge me."

"The policeman is dead. If you don't want your colleagues to take revenge, you must find an outsider?" Ji Xun looked at the sky, and the shadows on the sky disappeared at some point, leaving only white clouds, in his sight, like smoke and mist, An impenetrable veil covers the white clouds of their lives, "The burden is too heavy, I can't bear it."

"Still poor now?"

"Don't you still have a bad mouth now?"

"Ji Xun, I'm serious—" Huo Ranyin, who had been staring at the front, turned his eyes for an instant, and his dark pupils looked into the deepest part of Ji Xun's eyes, "I still want to know the truth."

"Huo Ranyin, your truth is meaningful because you are still alive; if you die." Ji Xun said cruelly, "Your truth is worthless to me."

The crackling of flames and the sound of shooting bullets are the lingering and exciting background sounds of this dialogue.

However, after Ji Xun finished speaking, the sound of the bullet seemed to disappear.

Huo Ranyin looked up, quickly grabbed Ji Xun, and shot at the wheel of the red car in front at the same time: "Hide! They are speeding up, planning to hit them directly!"

There was a "pounce", and the bullet accurately shot into the front wheel of the red car.

But the air leak of one wheel did not prevent the red car from driving forward crazily. The bright red color, like a blood brake, came from an arrow!

Without Huo Ranyin's reminder, Ji Xun also felt that something was wrong, he immediately picked up Huo Ranyin, and dodged from the hiding place where the green taxi and the white car were handed over, but just as he appeared, his body seemed to be hammered hard click!

He straightened himself up, but he didn't stop, and he didn't fall. On the contrary, he ran faster and ran all the way until the piercing sound of dragging behind him stopped, and then he suddenly lost his strength and fell to the ground.

He heard Huo Ranyin's tense and distorted voice: "Your arm..."

"Shot." Ji Xun was extremely calm, "Why, do you still think it's useless for me to stay?"

"Ji Xun!"

"What's the situation now?"

"...the white car has been squeezed all the way to the front. Now, the front of the white car meets the green taxi, forming a right angle. They are retreating. The white car is burning. They are afraid of getting burned, so they dare not approach for too long." Huo Ran Yin quickly explained the scene, "The police will be there in 3 minutes. But..."

"But the hood of the burning car opened on the impact, right?" Ji Xun said.

"..."

"Next, the flames will go to the fuel tank of the car. Even if the flames don't burn for a while, they will shoot at the fuel tank and cause an explosion. This way, we don't have to rush up and worry about being shot. It's such a simple thing , the killer will not let it go, he must be targeting the fuel tank now." Ji Xun, "Another explosion, no one can handle it, no one can run away. Now is probably the last moment. Huo Ranyin..."

He stared at Huo Ranyin's face.

Huo Ranyin's face was also blurred in his eyes at this time, and he felt a little regretful, but it didn't matter.

He has a pen in his heart, and he is drawing carefully.

I have painted the other person's face thousands of times.

"You have a bad mouth."

He grumbled in a low voice.

"The last words I heard before I died were that you tell me to go, saying that I am useless, and that I will die with regret."

He heard gunshots behind him, the sound of bullets hitting the iron sheet.Maybe the fuel tank has been punctured.

He thought indifferently, life and death are momentary, of course there are regrets, but there is not much regret.

Because... because this is not a day when he and Huo Ranyin have to die, this is a day when he holds Huo Ranyin's hand and tries his best to protect his beloved.

He lowered his head suddenly and bit Huo Ranyin's mouth.

Blood is flowing, flames are burning, gunpowder smoke is all over their bodies, life hangs above the second hand, every second trembling may be the last trembling of life.

He kissed Huo Ranyin deeply, sucking the most intense sweetness of life.

There are still many, many things that have not been done.

But at this moment, as long as I can kiss the one I love again and listen to his soft words, happiness will be greater than unwillingness, and satisfaction will overcome fear.

Huo Ranyin froze for a moment, and immediately responded to his hugs and kisses with a more vicious and greedy attitude.

"Say something nice." Ji Xun ordered, "If you don't say it, you won't have a chance."

"I..." Huo Ranyin's pale face suddenly turned red, which may be the color of the jumping flames in front of him, or it may be the color of embarrassment brought by Huo Ranyin's flame of life, "I asked the Buddha yesterday Make a wish."

Cigarette smoke.

The gods and Buddhas were silent.

The answer to the unspoken prayer is the silent smile of the Buddha, which should be the smile of promise.

"I make a vow to grow old with you and never be separated. The Buddha promised me, Ji Xun," Huo Ranyin said tremblingly, "You also have to be obedient."

"Okay." A little smile fell on the corner of Ji Xun's mouth, he gently rubbed Huo Ranyin's lips, and the words came out along the gap between the lips, "I'm obedient..."

The moment Huo Ranyin relaxed, Ji Xun suddenly pushed Huo Ranyin away.

Life and death are imminent, but rescue is a thousand meters away.

This is a dead end, but it is not really without a chance.

Actually there is another way.

Ji Xun glanced at the green taxi and the white car.

The driver's seat of the green taxi was blown up in the explosion just now, but the white car is still on fire, but the driver's seat is still usable. At such a short distance, as long as you can start the car and drive towards the red car... everything will be fine. in time.

At least one person can survive.

Huo Ranyin who was behind him reacted in an instant, but Ji Xun's movements were faster than Huo Ranyin's. His palm had passed through the flames to open the car door, which was as hot as a branding iron.

Just then.

"boom!!--"

A loud bang exploded in the ears of the two, but it wasn't the sound of flame explosions, but farther behind——

"... There is a car!" Huo Ran shouted out with a dry and hoarse voice, "Ji Xun, there is a car ahead!"

Ji Xun also saw that an army green jeep appeared out of nowhere and slammed into the side door of the red car, causing the red car to skid directly, and the bullet that was supposed to hit the fuel tank flew somewhere Then the army green jeep kicked the accelerator again, fearless of death, and ruthlessly pushed away the white car that was lying across the body and occupying the entire road, and pushed out a gap where vehicles could pass.

Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin hurriedly dodged to the side when the jeep crashed into the white car, behind the green taxi, and then the jeep stopped in front of them, with the rear compartment door facing them.

Suddenly, Ji Xun only heard a familiar voice: "Get in the car!"

Power instantly poured into the body like spring water.

Ji Xun raised his arms vigorously, opened the door, hugged Huo Ranyin, and shrank into the carriage.

The driver kicked the accelerator to the end, the jeep engine roared, and it galloped away!

Almost two seconds after the car moved forward, there was a loud bang, and the white car behind it exploded into a dazzling fireball!

The aftermath of the explosion impacted the jeep, and the jeep kept vibrating and jumping in the aftermath. Amidst the clanging noise, Ji Xun grabbed Huo Ranyin hard, and looked at the driver through the gap between the two front seats. .

The driver of the jeep was wearing a low-pressed black baseball cap and a completely unrecognizable military coat with a stand-up collar.

The hat with a stand-up collar almost covered his entire face, the remaining part only showed his yellowish complexion as firm as the earth.

The man seemed to sense Ji Xun's gaze behind him, and said coldly:

"The police car is right behind, and it will catch up later. I will drop you off after 15 minutes of driving. Can the mobile phone still work? Call the police hospital yourself."

"Thank you..." Huo Ranyin said.

"You don't need to say anything, and you don't need to thank me. I didn't come here to save you." The man replied impatiently, cutting off Huo Ranyin's words.

"It's true that they didn't come here to save us on purpose..."

Ji Xun took a breath.He turned his head to look at Huo Ranyin, whose lips were tightly pursed, his muscles were twitching slightly, and he was trying his best to endure the pain.

"You didn't appear here by accident. Tell me, are you connected with the group of drug dealers behind, or with the person who made Huo Ranyin popular."

"The person who bought the hot search exposure must not know each other with the drug dealer. Otherwise, it is fine to contact secretly to provide information, and there is no need to make a big fuss. But in order to make Huo Ranyin a hot search, this group of people must follow up and investigate us early, in other words In other words, it is precisely because the two parties put great efforts in monitoring our movements in Qinshi that you were able to save us from danger."

Meng negative mountain...

Ji Xun stared at the driver ahead, chewing the name in his heart.He tried his best to support himself and concentrate, but the will still dissipated from his brain like a cloud of smoke, and he couldn't grasp it.

After seeing Huo Ranyin for the last time, his eyes went dark and he completely lost consciousness.
