Chapter 43: Run Away

The army mentioned by Fatty Wang was actually not the regular army, but the veterans of the security company, many of whom were retired special forces.

It was organized and disciplined and its mode of operation was the same as that of the army. Ordinary gangsters couldn’t beat them at all. Just like now, no one knew when they had arrived. Fatty Wang had spent a lot of money to buy cameras for the way up Mount Ge. But there was no sign of them at all.

Fatty Wang was out of breath and extremely frightened. He was an ordinary person and didn’t have the courage to face the army. He reached out to grab Qin Lang, “Run… run, there is already a fight outside.”

Qin Lang’s eyes were dark. He looked down and saw the smile on Chang Qing’s face. He suddenly grabbed his chin. “What are you laughing at! What are you laughing at? Are you so happy? “

Fatty Wang shouted, “Qin Lang! Let’s go!!”

Qin Lang took a deep breath and smiled,  “I’m taking him with me.”

Chang Qing was dragged up by him. “He doesn’t care if you live or die,” Qin Lang whispered in his ear. “If he was worried about you, he wouldn’t have let them come up directly and fight.”

Chang Qing said, “Lu Zheng is not at your mercy. If I die in exchange for Lu Hua and Lu Zheng to live, then I’m willing.”

Qin Lang’s face darkened. Fatty Wang, who was standing next to him, was taken aback by the sight. However, he couldn’t care less right now. The three of them ran out from the other side of the house.

Outside, there was already gunfire and chaos. Flashes, and light. Bullets and smoke. Fog. With the mixed effect of the bullets, the smoke was steaming, and only the screams and curses of the bandits invited by Fatty Wang could be heard.

Qin Lang gritted his teeth and said to Fatty Wang, “Let’s run separately!”

Fatty Wang shook his head, “Let’s go together!”

Qin Lang gave him a long, silent look.

The two of them were carrying Chang Qing who was tied up, and their movements were a little hindered, but it didn’t matter. Qin Lang picked Chang Qing up and ran very fast, but Fatty Wang was too big and had some trouble.

But in any case, they managed to stay out of the attack range.

Qin Lang said to Fatty Wang, “Follow me.”

Fatty Wang was stunned for a moment and said, “Okay.”

Qin Lang held Chang Qing in his arms, looked down at him, and smiled. “At this point, do you think Lu Zheng has the chance to win?”

Chang Qing closed his eyes and ignored him.

Qin Lang said, “Have you forgotten? I have two escape routes. One is route B. Only I know the location of the trap. As long as he comes over, it still won’t change the ending.”

Fatty Wang hesitated for a while, “…what route B?”

Qin Lang’s expression at this time was somewhat indifferent, “You don’t have to know.”

Fatty Wang’s heart sank, and he said to Qin Lang, “Are you hiding something from me?”

Qin Lang smiled slightly. “What can I hide from you?”

Fatty Wang didn’t believe him, “Qin Lang, there must be something you’re not telling me. What b-road?  What trap?”

Qin Lang glanced at him indifferently, “Is it useful to tell you?”

Fatty Wang looked at his expression. No matter how slow he was, he could still detect his abnormality. “What on earth are you…?”

The light in his eyes flickered and gradually dimmed. “What on earth are you hiding from me?” How much did he hide from him?

Qin Lang stared at his face and said, “You like me, right?”

Fatty Wang looked up at him in surprise.

Qin Lang’s face finally showed a bit of tenderness, and there was a bit of certainty in his tone, “You like me.”

A trace of awkwardness and embarrassment flashed in Fatty Wang’s eyes, “… How is that possible? You’re thinking too much! “

Seeing his denial, Qin Lang smiled and said, “Why don’t you admit it? It doesn’t matter if you like me. Everyone has the right to love someone. It’s a fact that you like me.”

Fatty Wang lowered his head. He clenched his fists and raised his eyes, “Yes, I do like you.”

Qin Lang smiled and showed his teeth. His lips were red and his teeth were white, and he had a refreshing beauty, “I always knew, Fatty. If it weren’t for these things, I would still be able to live with you. It’s just a pity that I don’t have this chance anymore. Maybe I’ll go to jail, maybe I’ll be killed by Lu Zheng. It’s hard to say … Let’s be partners together in the next life.”

Fatty Wang’s cheeks twitched, and he reached out and grabbed Qin Lang’s hand, “You’ll be all right, as long as Lu Zheng is dead, as long as he’s dead.”

Qin Lang said thoughtfully, “It’s harder to kill him now than to ascend to the sky.”

Fatty Wang couldn’t pay attention to his inconsistent attitude now. He grasped his hand tightly all reason lost by what Qin Lang had just said, “I’m going to find him. I brought a gun.”

Qin Lang returned his grip and said in a bewitching tone, “Go ahead, Fatty. I’ll wait for you ahead.”

Fatty Wang nodded heavily and was about to leave. After walking a few steps, he turned to look at him, the fire in his eyes rekindled, “How do you treat me… how do you treat me?”

Qin Lang understood what he meant, and looked at him with his usual affectionate eyes, “I feel at ease with you, but… not to the extent that I like you,” he said with a chuckle. “I think we’d be good together.”

Fatty Wang was relieved. He looked deeply into Qin Lang’s face, “I’m going to find Lu Zheng. You wait for me.” After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

The words “at ease“1  was enough, and he was satisfied.

Fatty Wang quickly disappeared without a trace. Chang Qing witnessed this good show, and couldn’t even make a sarcastic expression.

Qin Lang looked down at him and said softly, “He’s very interesting, right?”

Chang Qing let out a mocking laugh.

Qin Lang laughed as if nothing had happened, “You’re also very interesting.”

He grabbed Chang Qing and continued to walk forward.

Chang Qing noticed that from the beginning of a certain section of the road, Qin Lang began to walk awkwardly. He wasn’t a fool. He immediately understood, “Did you bury a landmine?”

Qin Lang praised him, “Very clever.”

Chang Qing couldn’t help but ask “I’m curious. Where did you get all this military equipment? You have  guns, and even landmines.”

Qin Lang said softly, “There’s nothing you can’t get if you put your mind to it.”

Chang Qing finally felt that Qin Lang was unusual.

Actually, he felt strange when he looked at the original book. In fact, there wasn’t much description about how Qin Lang dealt with the Lu family in the original book. Qin Lang urged that second-generation ancestor to hit Lu Zheng, but only a small trace was revealed. Just because of this doubt, Lu Zheng began to investigate Qin lang. As a result, a suitor around Qin Lang blackened and defected to Lu Zheng’s side, and poured out more doubts about Qin Lang.

Originally, the words of this suitor were also very specific, and there were some traces of reversing right and wrong. However, because of this, Lu Zheng found out more suspicious points about Qin Lang. After Wu Junyong’s death, a sum of money was remitted to his family’s account every other month. The source of the remittance was a stolen account, which had nothing to do with Qin Lang. But there were all kinds of doubts, and this coupled with an unintentional remark from someone else that Lu Hua and Qin Lang looked alike, finally led Lu Zheng in the right direction to investigate. And he began to investigate the previous generation, finally discovering the origins of the previous generation. After that, Lu Zheng set up a trap. Qin Lang fell into the trap and so the problem of Qin Lang was solved.

In other words, there was no description of how powerful Qin Lang was in the original work. Even Lu Zheng set up a trap for Qin Lang only on the basis of serious suspicion. It was only then that Qin Lang fell.

So the question is, why on earth was Qin Lang so bold with almost a reckless attitude.

Chang Qing was a little tentative and asked, “How did you get it?””

Qin Lang said logically: “I bought it. How else could I get it?”

Chang Qing: “…”

That’s the problem. How can you buy arms and ammunition if you don’t have access?

Qin Lang didn’t answer him anymore. He pulled him to hide under a tree pit. “Lu Zheng doesn’t care about you. If he cared about you, then at this time he should be worried about whether you’ll be killed by me.”

Chang Qing ignored him and closed his eyes to rest.

Qin Lang looked at him and said in a warm voice, “You really… have changed a lot.”

He paused and said to himself, “I’ve always thought that we’re very similar. We’re both the kind of people who would do anything for our goals. I want the Lu family, and you want Lu Zheng. Ha, aren’t we very similar?”

Chang Qing opened his eyes and looked at him, “I’m not sick. So how could I be like you?”

Qin Lang sighed. “It’s really a waste of breath to talk to someone with irreconcilable views. But it’s cute that you can only scold me for being sick.”

Chang Qing was so chilled by him that he couldn’t help turning his head.

Qin Lang said, “Guess how many mines I buried here.”

Chang Qing said nothing.

Qin Lang asked him, “Can you just ignore me? Aren’t you worried about Lu Zheng? If he comes looking for us, he’ll be blown to pieces.”

Only then did Chang Qing open his eyes, “What do you really want? Do you think you can escape now?”

Qin Lang lowered his eyes and said softly: “Actually, I’m using this road to deal with everyone except the three of us. I’m only safe if they’re all dead. But I didn’t expect Lu Zheng to use the army, or a squadron… Maybe not the army or a squadron. They look more like private troops to me. “

He sighed, “I’ve wanted to have power in my hands for half my life, but Lu Zheng and the others were born with everything, whether it’s money or anything else.

Chang Qing said, “You’re a demon.”

Qin Lang looked at him and chuckled, “A demon? Maybe.”

Chang Qing stopped talking, and Qin Lang also stopped.

The woods were so vast, and the sound could be heard clearly. Chang Qing could still hear the gunshots from here.

Qin Lang said, “Aren’t you worried that Lu Zheng will die?”

Chang Qing suddenly felt a bit malicious, “Lu Zheng won’t die. But you will definitely lose.”

Qin Lang pretended to be displeased: “Are you so confident in him?”

Chang Qing raised his chin and sneered: “That’s because he’s the male protagonist and the son of the world, and you’re the villain. Evil can never prevail over good. Even if you’re given a hundred or a thousand chances, you can’t beat him.”

Qin Lang applauded convincingly, “It turns out that you still have such a chunni2 side and I’ve never noticed it before.”

Chang Qing said: “It’s the truth. It’s the truth.”

“You’re right about everything,” Qin Lang said gently, with a hint of indulgence.

However, the style of painting suddenly changed, and he spoke darkly. “But he must die.”
