If Lin Beichen hadn't had other things on his mind, he would have liked to let him eat for another half hour.

Xiaoqiang's mouth was stuffed full.

"You know, people like us can't find many jobs anyway."

"I had no choice, did I?"

"If I weren't unable to find work, do you think I would willingly resort to robbery?"

The two of them actually became closer.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Xiaoqiang led Lin Beichen toward the back mountain.

“There’s a small house over there. I’ve seen that woman in that house before.”

Lin Beichen was skeptical.

After the two arrived at the house, Xiaoqiang pointed to it.

"See that little house? I did see that woman there before."

Is it that house?

Lin Beichen's heart clenched instantly.

At that moment, he hurriedly ran towards the house.

The moment he opened the door, Lin Beichen suddenly lost his footing.

Before he could react, he fell heavily into a large pit.

"You're too easy to fool!"

Xiaoqiang slowly walked up from behind.

"I thought you were pretty smart, but I didn't expect you to be so easy to fool."

Looking at Xiao Qiang, Lin Beichen felt immense regret.

No wonder the previous boss tried every means to prevent him from leaving.

It seems that everyone in the area knows that this guy named Xiaoqiang is no good.

Why did you lie to me?

Lin Beichen's expression was very unpleasant.

I thought I had found the culprit, but it turned out I had just fallen into someone else's trap.

But Xiaoqiang didn't care at all.

How did I lie to you?

He casually spread his hands.

"It's not that I'm lying to you, I just think you're a bit stupid."

Lin Beichen wanted to climb up, but the hole was too deep.

"You'd better listen to others from now on!"

Seeing that Xiao Qiang was about to leave, Lin Beichen immediately shouted, "Wait for me!"

He doesn't have time to waste here.

Hao Jianhua and Fatty Wang could face mortal danger at any moment.

If we don't come up with a solution soon, things could get really bad.

"Wait a minute!"

Lin Beichen's voice became urgent.

"What exactly do you want? I can give you anything you want."

"As long as you can get me out of here, I will absolutely not hold you responsible."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqiang grinned and made a funny face.

"Please, do you really think I'm brainless?"

Lin Beichen probably already hated him to the core.

What I just said was probably a lie.

"You can get scammed, but you can't say I can get scammed too, can you?"

As they were talking, Xiaoqiang glanced at him with a happy smile.

"You're so easy to fool. I've never met anyone easier to fool in my life."

"That boss was right, I really am a fraud."

His smug look meant that he didn't think he had done anything wrong at all.

"But someone as foolish as you would definitely be fooled by many others besides me."

Lin Beichen clenched his fists indignantly.

Do you know how important that woman is to me?

"All my brothers were hurt because of that woman, and now you're playing this kind of joke on me?"

He was furious.

He thought he could find that woman, but he ended up falling into another trap.

If he had known this would happen, perhaps he shouldn't have believed Xiaoqiang's nonsense in the first place.

Or perhaps, even the name Xiaoqiang gave him was a lie.

Lin Beichen's gaze gradually turned cold:

"You will pay the price for what you did today!"

No wonder the boss refused to let him trust this man.

It seems the boss had foresight.

Lin Beichen's gaze gradually sharpened.

"You will pay the price for what you have done today."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqiang burst into laughter.

"What price?"

His expression looked extremely arrogant.

Why should I believe you?

"You're nothing but a defeated opponent of mine. If you want me to pay the price, you'd better climb out of this pit first."

After saying that, the man simply turned and left.

Lin Beichen fell into the pit alone.

This pit must have been dug by this man a long time ago.

Looking around, all the walls were in ruins.

"Who on earth had all this free time to do this?"

He had been holding his head tightly, which is why he wasn't injured.

If it rolled down directly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lin Beichen looked extremely distressed.

We need to get out of here right away!

He hadn't found the woman yet, and now he was inexplicably trapped in a cave.

If Hao Jianhua and Fatty Wang knew this, they'd probably laugh at them for ages.

But it doesn't really matter whether you know or not.

The most important thing right now is probably to get out of here as soon as possible.

How exactly do we get out?

Lin Beichen kept trying to come up with a solution.

He originally intended to climb out.

But when I looked up, I realized the hole was taller than two of me.

It's impossible to climb out with your bare hands.

Is anyone there?

Lin Beichen shouted loudly.

Is anyone there?

He jumped and roared.

After shouting for a while, Lin Beichen completely stopped.

There's no way anyone could be here.

Even if there were someone, they wouldn't come here.

Where did all these people go?

Lin Beichen looked around in confusion.

He should be on the back mountain now.

I wonder if Xiaoqiang dug this hole.

Regardless of whether Xiaoqiang dug it up or not, we need to find another way to handle this.

"I refuse to believe it!"

Lin Beichen rolled up his sleeves and climbed up with great effort.

But before it could climb more than a few steps, it tumbled back to the bottom of the cave.

"What kind of awful place is this?"

Lin Beichen roared loudly at the sky.

After about half an hour, he was finally exhausted.

Left with no other choice, Lin Beichen picked up his communication device.

He would never call Hao Jianhua unless absolutely necessary.

That brat may not have any other skills, but he's certainly adept at making sarcastic remarks.

If he finds out he was scammed for no reason, it will probably cause him a lot of trouble.

Lin Beichen sighed heavily.

"It seems we have no choice but to contact Hao Jianhua."

After making the call, the call was successfully connected.

"Why did you suddenly decide to call me today?"

Hao Jianhua on the other end of the phone sounded nonchalant and irresponsible.

Lin Beichen frowned slightly.

"Can you do me a favor? I've been trapped in a cave by a thug."

what?
Upon hearing this, Hao Jianhua immediately perked up. "You've been trapped in a cave by a thug, are you now?"

Lin Beichen nodded unconsciously.

"I'll send you an address in a bit, then you can come over here."

Before he could finish speaking, Hao Jianhua suddenly burst into laughter like a madman on the other end of the phone.

"I knew it!"

He burst into laughter.

"I was wondering why they suddenly called today. So that's what happened."

He kept shaking his head while laughing.

"Please rest assured, I will definitely find a way to get you out."

Lin Beichen rolled his eyes at him.

"Stop talking so much, I'm still locked up in the cave."

After hanging up the phone, Hao Jianhua happily prepared to set off.

While preparing things, he was still smugly pleased with himself.

"I actually fell for someone's trick without even realizing it. So even Lin Beichen has his day."

He had already planned how he would mock Lin Beichen in the future.

On the other side, Lin Beichen lay alone on the ground, bored out of his mind.

I was trying to go out just now, and it took too much effort.

At that moment, he felt extremely frustrated.

It's a shame he trusted Xiaoqiang so much.

Aside from this big fool, there's probably no one else in the world who would trust him.

"I'm such a big fool!"

Lin Beichen sighed heavily.

"The boss doesn't believe that guy, so why should I keep pretending?"

Just as Lin Beichen was about to continue his angry rant, he suddenly heard a rather chaotic sound.

He immediately stood up.

Is that Hao Jianhua?

Lin Beichen shouted loudly outside.

But no one answered from outside.

"Is that brat up to something again?"

Lin Beichen was skeptical.

Just then, a bundle of hemp rope was thrown down from above the cave.

"You came pretty quickly."

Lin Beichen laughed loudly for a while.

"If you're going to make fun of me, I'll come up and give you a good whack on the head later."

Lin Beichen pulled the rope tighter.

Lin Beichen muttered something to himself.

"If I hear you laughing at me later, I'll be very rude to you."

He knew what kind of person Hao Jianhua was.

The calmer things were, the more uneasy Lin Beichen felt.

Based on his understanding of Hao Jianhua, he assumed that the guy had already figured out a way to mock him.

But so far, Hao Jianhua hasn't said a single word.

He felt something was off.

"That's strange. Could it be that Hao Jianhua's mouth has been sealed shut?"

Lin Beichen walked slowly out of the cave, half believing and half doubting.

Just as he arrived outside the cave, a cold knife was placed directly against his neck.

The icy touch sent a shiver down Lin Beichen's spine.

He quickly took a step back and frowned deeply.

"who are you?"

A scruffy-bearded man stood in front of me.

Lin Beichen searched his memory thoroughly, but he had never seen this man before.

What brings you here?

Lin Beichen instantly became alert.

No wonder this person didn't make a sound just now.

This person wasn't Hao Jianhua at all; it was some guy who appeared out of nowhere.

"Behave yourself."

The man held a knife to Lin Beichen's neck:
"If I find out you're not being honest in the slightest, don't blame me for being ruthless."

With a knife already at his throat, what could Lin Beichen do?
He took two steps forward quietly.

"Don't be impulsive, I have no ill intentions towards you."

Lin Beichen raised his hands.

"I will do as you say, but only if you don't kill me."

Isn't life just about having one life?
If he loses his life, what is there for him to be proud of?
"it is good!"

The man behind him pressed a knife against Lin Beichen's waist.

"Keep walking forward, and I'll tell you how to get there from behind."

Lin Beichen didn't know who this man was.

The man had a stubble beard and looked rather strange.

"Young man, I don't think we need to be at odds!"

On the way back, Lin Beichen kept trying to get closer to the bearded man.

Only after finding out who this bearded man was could he stop worrying.

"I won't run away, but you have to tell me where you want me to go?"

The man behind her did not answer.

He simply held the knife to the other man's waist.

"Who sent you?"

The man did not respond to Lin Beichen's questioning.

Seeing that Lin Beichen seemed to want to continue speaking, the man once again pressed the knife against his waist.

Why do you talk so much nonsense?

From the moment he saw Lin Beichen, this man seemed to have been talking non-stop.

The bearded man behind him was very annoyed.

"Keep moving forward!"

He directed Lin Beichen's next route from behind.

"Turn left at that spot ahead and continue down that way."

Lin Beichen nodded thoughtfully.

I won't ask anymore.

You won't get any information by asking, and you might even get scolded.

The two continued walking forward.

Lin Beichen raised his hands, and his steps slowed down.

Meanwhile, Hao Jianhua had already arrived at the location indicated on the navigation.

"Lin Beichen should be around here!"

He looked left and right.

If we follow the location on the navigation app, then there should be a hiding place for Lin Beichen nearby.

"Isn't it right here?"

After looking around, his expression instantly turned impatient.

Hao Jianhua took two more steps inside, but still couldn't see Lin Beichen.

"Where did this guy go?"

On the way here, Hao Jianhua had been thinking about how to make fun of Lin Beichen.

He originally planned to rescue his good brother from that pit first, and then give him a good humiliation.

But after arriving here, Hao Jianhua got lost.

He kept fiddling with his phone.

"This is really strange, what kind of awful place is this?!"

"Wasn't it said that he was framed right here? How come we can't find a single person here now?"

As he spoke, he unconsciously furrowed his brow.

Unable to find Lin Beichen, Hao Jianhua had no choice but to continue walking.

Soon, he arrived near the house.

But Lin Beichen had already been taken away.

When he looked down into the pit, it was completely empty.

Hao Jianhua couldn't help but complain:
"They went to so much trouble to call me here, and now they can't even find me. Aren't they just messing with me?"

He could have spent time with Fatty Wang in the hospital.

It was because of Lin Beichen's invitation that he was forced to come here.

Now, things are really messed up; they don't even know what to do next.

Where on earth did Lin Beichen run off to?

Hao Beichen kept searching back and forth in the vicinity.

But no matter how many times he searched, he never saw Lin Beichen's shadow.

Hao Jianhua was instantly enraged. (End of Chapter)
