Jia Peng couldn't help but shudder. At this moment, he felt that there seemed to be something wrong in his previous understanding of bodyguards.
When he looked at Chen Xi again, Jia Peng would become afraid unconsciously. This guy is not only a bodyguard, but also a murderer.
The two people did not deliberately speak in a low voice, and other people also heard it. They did not quite agree with Chen Xi's remarks, but they believed a lot more about his identity.
Jeff did the same. He rolled his eyes and thought about how to hunt the Scarlet Naga without provoking Chen Xi.
According to Jeff's original intention, he wanted to use these people on the boat as bait, but now with the addition of Chen Xi, he didn't dare to act rashly. Who knows if the other party would meddle in his affairs.
Jeff thought, if it doesn't work, he will go back to his boat first. He also has a pistol on the boat. As long as he has the gun, he can take the initiative to kill Chen Xi, and there will be no problem.
Jia Peng found an excuse and ran away awkwardly. He didn't dare to stay with Chen Xi any longer, for fear that he would make the other party unhappy and kill him.
Gong Lanlan was bolder. She ran to find Chen Xi when no one was around and whispered, "There's something I can't figure out. Can you help me analyze it?"
"Go ahead."
"Like you said, our circus is almost out of business. I don't understand why anyone would want us to perform."
"Who contacted you about the performance business?"
"Eight ounces of gold."
"Are you familiar with each other?"
"It's okay." Gong Lanlan gave a brief description.
After hearing this, Chen Xi was amused: "So you guys don't know anything about his current situation, and you just followed him like a fool?"
Gong Lanlan's expression turned unchanged: "You mean he can harm us?"
"Why not?" Chen Xi asked back, "Your circus is about to go bankrupt, so it's obvious that it has no performance value. So guess where your value lies?"
Gong Lanlan: “???”
Chen Xi gestured at her a few times: "The value is you yourself."
"What do you mean?" Gong Lanlan still didn't understand.
"Silly." Chen Xi said with disdain: "Don't you know that there are many people selling human organs in Southeast Asia?"
After hearing this, Gong Lanlan's expression suddenly changed: "You mean..."
"if not?"
"No way?"
"Believe it or not, you guys are the kind of people who are sold and still help count the money."
Gong Lanlan's face was extremely ugly, and she was shaking with anger: "No, I have to go find that bastard and ask him clearly."
"It's no use, he won't admit it."
"So we just accept it?"
"That's your business, it has nothing to do with me."
"You're just going to watch us get sold out?" Gong Lanlan couldn't believe it.
"It's not like I was sold out. You trusted him voluntarily."
Gong Lanlan was speechless for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she said, "You are a bodyguard, right? Well, I will hire you to protect us."
"Okay, my price is $10,000 a day."
"How much?!" Gong Lanlan exclaimed.
"Don't make such a fuss." Chen Xi said while picking his ears: "This price is not expensive. If you hire me to kill someone, the price will be higher."
Gong Lanlan: “…”
At this moment, Gong Lanlan deeply felt that she and the other person were from two different worlds. While they were still struggling to make ends meet, others were earning 10,000 US dollars a day. That was US dollars!
"Want to hire me?"
Gong Lanlan looked at Chen Xi and smiled bitterly: "Sorry, I... don't have that much money."
"Oh, forget it. Even if the deal doesn't work out, there's still righteousness."
Gong Lanlan walked back to the cabin in a daze. On the way, she met Ali, who gave her a disdainful look, but Gong Lanlan didn't pay any attention and just walked past her.
Ali, who was ready for a fight, said: "???"
What's wrong with this woman?
Gong Lanlan didn't trust Ali, but she trusted Jia Peng and Da Jiao. She went straight to find the two, one big and one small, and told them the news she had received. Sure enough, the two were also stunned.
Ali, who was eavesdropping outside, was also stunned. Oh my god, how could this be possible?
That asshole woman actually hid it from me? !
Alila opened the cabin door and rushed in, pointing at Gong Lanlan's nose and scolding: "If I hadn't eavesdropped, would you not have told me?!"
Gong Lanlan glanced at her with disdain: "Why? Do you think you will believe me if I tell you? Don't you want to follow me and make a lot of money?"
"I'll make your mother pay!" Ali also got angry: "Just tell me, is your guess true?"
"What do you think?" Gong Lanlan's question left Ali speechless.
This matter is actually very easy to analyze. When certain ideas don't make sense, the only reason that can explain it, no matter how incredible it is, is the truth.
The four people in the cabin were silent.
Gong Lanlan said: "I found Chen Xi and wanted to hire him to protect us."
The eyes of the other three people suddenly lit up.
"Forget it. His fee is $10,000 a day. We can't afford it."
"How much?!" Ali also made the same exclamation as Gong Lanlan did.
"Ten thousand dollars a day."
Da Jiao and Jia Peng were also stunned. They counted on their fingers, as if trying to calculate how much RMB that was.
"Forget about the fact that we can't afford to hire him. I just don't believe that the four of us can't beat one Jin Baliang!" Ali's temper also flared up: "Can you guys do it?"
"You think it's simple." Gong Lanlan sneered: "Do you think I'm worried about Jin Baliang? I'm worried about the other party's support."
"What do you mean?"
"Have you forgotten what Jin Baliang let slip when we saw the coffin?"
"what?"
"That guy has already contacted the people over there. As soon as we land, they will come and take us away. We have to face not just Jin Baliang, but the entire criminal group."
"Then...what should we do?" Ali was also panicked.
"Or, we can return now, but the captain won't listen to us. The one who pays is Jin Baliang."
"Is not this nonsensical?"
"Or..." Gong Lanlan let out a long sigh: "Kill Jin Baliang in advance."
This time, Ali was silent. Although she was angry, she also wanted to teach that bastard Jin Baliang a lesson, but... she couldn't do something like killing people.
Jin Baliang was still bragging and making big promises to Zhang Tianshi and the zombie Awei, completely unaware that they were already discussing how to deal with him.
That night, Gong Lanlan and the other three who were well prepared launched a rebellion. Dajiao controlled Jin Balian, and Gong Lanlan and Jia Peng tied him up tightly.
Zhang Tianshi: “???”
Zombie Awei: “???”
Jin Baliang struggled desperately: "What are you doing?!"
Gong Lanlan walked towards Jin Baliang with a sneer and kicked him: "At this point, you still want to hide it from us?"
"What did I hide from you?"
"You didn't ask us to perform at all. You just wanted to sell us to human organs."
Jin Baliang's face changed and he struggled even harder: "I didn't! You're talking nonsense. How could I do such a thing?"
After hearing Gong Lanlan's words, Zhang Tianshi and the zombie Awei were also stunned and looked at Jin Balian suspiciously.
"I knew you wouldn't admit it. It's okay. I'll help you sober up." Gong Lanlan waved her hand and said, "Da Jiao, throw him into the water."
"Wait, wait!" Before Jin Baliang could finish his words, he was thrown into the river. He was tied up and couldn't struggle at all. He just sank down.
Chen Xi watched the show with great interest, smoking leisurely. It was quite interesting.
Ten seconds later, Gong Lanlan waved her hand again, and Dajiao pulled Jin Baliang out of the water.
Jin Baliang, who had just emerged from the water, was gasping for breath. He still denied everything and kept crying out for justice.
Gong Lanlan's face was extremely ugly: "Continue!"
"No! No~~" Jin Baliang was thrown into the water again.
After repeating this several times, Jin Baliang couldn't stand it anymore, but he refused to admit it, which made others suspicious. Could it be that they really misunderstood?
Several people looked at Gong Lanlan. She was also a little confused. After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Throw it again!"
Jin Baliang was thrown down again while screaming, but he was already relaxed in his heart. He also realized that he should be able to pass this level. He just needed to hold his breath and get through it, and then he would... huh?
Under the turbid water, Jin Baliang vaguely saw something swimming towards him rapidly.
what is that?
Fish?
Before Jin Balian could see clearly, the next second, a bloody mouth bit him. Jin Balian was horrified and opened his mouth to shout for help, but was choked by the water and then rolled up by the python.
The people on the boat only saw the rope being pulled away suddenly like crazy, and Dajiao didn't have time to react, and all the ropes left on the boat fell into the water.
At this moment, everyone's expression changed. They just wanted to know the truth and didn't intend to kill anyone.
Ali screamed, "Help!"
Hearing Ali's voice, Da Jiao was about to jump off the boat to save people, but was kicked to the deck by Chen Xi.
"Silly." Chen Xi was disgusted. "It's obvious that there is danger underwater, but you still dare to go in the water. Aren't you afraid of death?"
At this time, everyone realized that Jin Baliang must have been taken away by something, otherwise the rope would not have been able to move so quickly.
The calm water surface was disturbed again. Not far from the boat, the water surface broke open and a giant python emerged from the water holding Jin Balian in its mouth. Its long body tightly wrapped around Jin Balian.
Jin Baliang was already in his dying moments. Blood began to flow from his ears and nose, and countless bones in his body were broken.
When Jeff saw the python, his eyes lit up instantly and he thought about how to catch this big guy.
The others were also stunned. It was the first time they had seen such a huge python. Looking at Jin Balian, it wasn't that they didn't want to save it, but they simply didn't know what to do.
"boom!"
With a gunshot, the python's head was blown to pieces as it was about to swallow, and the snake's body that was tightly wrapped around Jin Balian began to loosen.
Everyone else was relieved, except Jeff, who had a grim look on his face. First, Chen Xi killed his prey, and second, Chen Xi's marksmanship was so poor that he didn't think he had the ability to hit the python's head with one shot at this distance.
What made Jeff most unhappy was the attitude. Chen Xi's attitude towards the python was to kill it, which was very bad. What if he encountered a scarlet naga and this guy was killed with one shot?
No, he had to think of a way. Either he had to get rid of Chen Xi, or he had to act alone.
At this time, the python's body had been completely loosened. Da Jiao wanted to jump into the water to save the man, but was stopped by Chen Xi again: "It's useless. He can't be saved."
Da Jiao turned around and said in a low voice.
"It's too dangerous to go into the water. If you don't give up, just row the boat over there. His body is already badly damaged. You'll just be collecting his body if you go there."
Da Jiao and Jia Peng looked at each other, but couldn't bear to let Jin Baliang die like this, so the two of them, one big and one small, ran straight to the boat.
Chapter 94: Set out to catch snakes
Just as Chen Xi said, he couldn't be saved. Before the two men could row the boat over, Jin Balian died first. They only brought back Jin Balian's body.
The bodies were carried back to the deck, and now everyone was no longer at risk of being sold, but they were at a loss as to what to do next.
Captain Salai was also upset because Jin Baliang had not yet received the follow-up money. He really lost a lot on this trip.
The four people from the circus and Zhang Tianshi were also in a dilemma. It was not that they did not want to go back, but they had no money to go back. All the property of the six people added together was not enough to buy the return boat ticket.
Even if Captain Salai was kind enough to send them back, what would happen after they returned?
No eating or drinking?
