Chapter 1018 The Troublemaker
Chapter 1018 The Troublemaker
Zhou Qi suddenly laughed so hard that the glass windows buzzed. "Money is nothing! Divide it all among everyone present today. If there's not enough, I'll go get it now!"
This statement caused an uproar in the room.
The scoundrels counted on their fingers and realized that this amount of money, which they could only save by working at a construction site and carrying bricks for three or four years, was actually picked up for free.
A few smart ones have already gathered at the window, fearing that the ATM machine outside will be emptied.
"Sure, I'll listen to you."
Shaolin Temple waved his hand towards the restless crowd, turned around and lowered his voice: "Are your sister-in-law and the child scared? Go back quickly, I'll be watching here."
Zhou Qi took out his car keys and turned back before leaving: "Those bastards who caused trouble..."
"Yes, I know the rules."
Shaolin Temple spat a mouthful of betel nut residue into the corner and raised his chin towards the yellow-haired man holding the steel pipe: "Take ten people over there and teach the leader a lesson. Remember, don't see blood."
"Okay! Fourth brother, just wait and see!"
The yellow-haired man kicked the iron gate open with a grin, followed by seven or eight people with weapons. The few who didn't get to the front row when the money was distributed earlier were now scrambling to go out and show off.
Twenty miles away, on the winding mountain road, the military jeep creaked as it rolled over gravel.
Zhu Xiang flicked the half-smoked cigarette butt out of the car window, and the spark drew a dark red arc in the twilight.
He thought that he could no longer rely on Li Shan.
He still had to do it himself at the critical moment. But when two heavy trucks full of people rumbled to the side of the sand mining ship, he knew that today's game was completely over.
Zhou Qi quickly stepped off the sand-dredging boat, started the motorcycle and rushed towards the dock.
On the dock, Lin Ruixue hugged her daughter and enjoyed the lake breeze. The little girl quickly forgot about the thrilling scene.
"Wife, let's go home!"
Zhou Qi did a drift and stopped the Yamaha in front of his wife and daughter.
There were still traces of tears on Lin Ruixue's face, her eyes were swollen like ripe peaches, and she threw herself into her husband's arms and cried loudly, as if she wanted to cry out her whole heart.
After crying for two cigarettes, Zhou Qi patted his wife on the back and said, "Don't dare to make trouble again. Let's go!"
As he spoke, he carried his daughter to the motorcycle tank cap and sat her firmly. Lin Ruixue hugged her husband's waist tightly. The night wind wrapped the three of them as they moved forward slowly, which was quite warm.
Twenty miles away on the ring road around the lake, Zhu Xiang parked the jeep in a dark place.
The motorcycle in the telescope was slowly moving towards the city, and cigarette butts were scattered in circles under his feet.
"If you rely on the mountain, the mountain will collapse; if you rely on the water, the water will flow away!" The last half of Hongta Mountain was crushed into the mud by him, and the car keys made a clicking sound when they were turned.
He was most familiar with this section of the road around the lake. The steep slope ahead was as high as three stories.
Not to mention surveillance in the middle of the night, there wasn't even a ghost.
As long as you find the right moment and step on the accelerator, not only a motorcyclist but even a tank driver can be pushed into the lake.
When the sun comes out tomorrow, it will just be an accident where someone fell into the lake after drinking. There aren’t even any cameras on the road these days, so who could track down a man in military uniform?
Zhu Xiang's unit was thousands of kilometers away from Guangzhou, so even if the police wanted to investigate, they would be unable to reach him. Thinking of this opportunity, Zhu Xiang stepped on the accelerator and drove the military jeep straight towards Maling Mountain.
Nuo Nuo's face turned red with excitement, and he lay on the motorcycle's fuel tank, looking around.
Lin Ruixue, who was sitting in the back seat, hugged her husband's waist sideways, feeling uneasy due to the bumpy road.
This was the first time for the mother and daughter to ride a motorcycle in their lives. The twelve-year-old Nuonuo felt like she had discovered a new world, while Lin Ruixue was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
"Wife!" Zhou Qi suddenly braked and stopped at the shore of Luoma Lake.
"What happened?"
"It's too painful for you to sit like this. Carry Nuonuo to the middle and lean against me."
Zhou Qi glanced around as he spoke.
Zhu Xiang was not seen among the villagers who were making trouble today. This abnormal situation made him feel cold on his back - that bastard who was deliberately trying to kill them would never give up easily.
"I want to sit in the front!" Nuonuo protested with a pout. If she was sandwiched between her parents, she wouldn't be able to see the scenery along the way.
Lin Ruixue also shook her head: "Let the child sit in the front, I can't hold her steadily in this position."
She was indeed afraid and felt like she was going to be thrown out of the car with every bump.
Zhou Qi turned the accelerator and continued to move forward: "Zhu Xiang was not among the group of people just now. I always feel that he is hiding somewhere waiting for an opportunity to strike."
These words gave Lin Ruixue goose bumps all over her body, and she tightened her arms around her husband.
"You mean... it was all Zhu Xiang's fault?"
"Who else could it be other than Zhu Haibing's family?"
Zhou Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Last time, that bastard Zhu Shiliang tried to hit me with his car, but he met his death. Now Zhu Xiang is resorting to these despicable means just to avenge his brother."
Lin Ruixue's voice trembled: "We are living a peaceful life, why do they keep biting us?"
This timid and honest rural woman was now in a state of panic.
"If an enemy comes, we will stop him!"
Zhou Qi patted his wife's hand and said, "Although the confessions from the villagers cannot be brought to court, they are enough to make Zhu Xiang hesitate. He is now a person of some standing, so he dare not do anything reckless."
As the roar of the engine grew louder, the motorcycle sped along the road around the lake.
In the twilight, Zhou Qi squinted and stared at the rearview mirror - what is coming will come, and he wanted to see what tricks Zhu Xiang could play.
The moonlight broke into silver scales on the lake surface, and Zhou Qi suddenly relaxed his hand on the accelerator.
The motorcycle's headlights dimmed, attracting fireflies to gather into a flowing star belt, drawing a halo around the front of the car.
"Dad! A meteor shower is falling!"
Nuonuo reached out to grab the flying light.
On the slope three hundred meters away, Zhu Xiang turned off the lights of his jeep, and the army green body of his jeep looked like a dormant beast. He stared at the cluster of fireflies in the distance, and stepped on the accelerator pedal to the bottom.
Zhou Qi suddenly slammed the brakes at the fork in the road.
The dense forests on both sides rustled in the night wind. He somehow turned the front of the car towards the lake. The black water pierced by the beam of light was creating ominous whirlpools.
"Take a break and let Nuonuo see enough."
As he spoke, he turned off the car lights, and the sky suddenly exploded with fireflies, like a disturbed galaxy.
Darkness instantly engulfed the entire road around the lake.
Zhu Xiang's forehead was covered with sweat. The jeep, which was sliding in neutral gear, was approaching silently with the momentum of the downhill slope.
The fluorescent light on the dashboard reflected his hideous smile - he was only fifty meters away from crashing the motorcycle into the deep water.
"Stay still."
Zhou Qi suddenly picked up his wife and daughter with his legs and placed them lightly in the reeds.
Just as Nuo Nuo in Lin Ruixue's arms was about to open her mouth, her mother covered her mouth.
The night wind brought the dull sound of tires rolling over gravel. The motorcycle under Zhou Qi's crotch suddenly roared, and the bright beam of light from the headlights pierced deep into the dense forest.
When Zhu Xiang's jeep appeared in the strong light, it was less than three car lengths away from the cliff.
The roar of the engine pierced the night sky, and the Yamaha under Zhou Qi's crotch shot out like an arrow.
The bright beams of light from the headlights pierced the darkness, drawing a sharp arc at the country road intersection.
Zhu Xiang was driving in the dark when suddenly a white light exploded in front of his eyes. His hand, which was reaching for the light switch reflexively, froze in mid-air.
