Bang!

Another shot rang out, but my hair stood on end as I heard it coming from the back of the hill. Crap, my first thought was that Liao Mengfann might have met with danger. I picked up a sickle on the ground and immediately dashed towards the back door of the hall.

The back door that led out of the main hall was the side room of the temple. I ran into the wing and looked around. There was no one there. There was a small door at the back of the room. I quickly opened it and saw a straight stone staircase.

Under the moonlight, I carefully walked up the stone stairs. The stairs weren't too steep, and there was a slow-moving platform halfway up. When I got to the first podium, I saw a man lying on the second podium, not far away from me. Beside him was a woman squatting on the ground, who seemed to be crying.

I carefully walked over, and saw that the crying woman was actually Lee Shan. Beside her was a pitch-black pistol. I hastily picked it up, only to find that there were no more bullets inside. But at this time, Zhang Liang was lying in a pool of blood. His blood had not dried up yet, looks like he had died not too long ago.

”Hey, where's that woman?” I patted Lee Shan's back and asked.

Lee Shan turned her head, her eyes red and swollen, she raised her finger and pointed to the end of the platform. I saw a big stone house with its door closed, but I didn't see Liao Mengfann, so she must have already entered.

I took out handcuffs, handcuffed Lee Shan to a big tree, held onto my sickle and ran up the stairs. I ran all the way to the top, exhausted from the pain in my back and shoulders. I placed one hand on the wall of the stone house and rested for a few seconds. Then, I carefully pushed open the door of the stone house.

It was empty, but torches were lit around it. I saw Cui Hongliang and Liao Mengfann staring at each other, a circle of explosives was wrapped around his waist and his right hand was holding onto the Detonator. His left hand was holding onto a gun, and the black gun was pointing straight at Liao Mengfann's head.

”Damn you!” Your father has failed today! ” Cui Hongliang was a little excited, his hands were trembling as he said angrily: ”I never thought that Liu Lee that b * tch and I would actually be hypnotized to death by a stinking woman like you. However, none of us will be able to escape today! ”

I sneered and walked to Liao Mengfann's side and patted her shoulder. ”I was almost tricked by you!”

”Idiot!” Liao Mengfann shot a glance at me, and said: ”I gave you two hints, didn't you notice it?”

”Of course not!” I said, ”The first time was when you pounded my chest. You secretly hung Wei Shijie's camera on my chest, wanting to take the evidence. The second time is very simple. You walked behind me and secretly stuffed a small saw blade into my hand! ”How else could I cut the rope?” As I said that, I took out the camera from my chest and purposely waved it in front of Cui Hongliang.

”Boring!” Liao Mengfann said: ”Then why did you say I tricked you!”

I joked, ”It's all because you acted too much like me! But it really hurts when you hit me! ”

”How can they believe it if they don't fight to the truth?” Liao Mengfann said as she walked in front of me. She used her elbow to push at my chest and said, ”Go, you shouldn't have come here with me.”

I reached out my hand to pull her back and protected her behind me. ”I don't want to rely on a woman!” I took another step forward.

”You … Don't you two come over! ” Cui Hongliang pointed his gun at me. His hands were trembling violently as he said, ”Again. One more time and I'll... It's fired! ”

”Haha …” I mockingly smiled and said, ”You also have a time of being afraid? Where is your ancestor? Why didn't it come to save you? ”

”You shut up!” Cui Hongliang said in a trembling voice: ”Do not insult the ancestor, good good good, since we cannot leave, then let us go see the ancestor together!”

I heard that his tone was extremely strange, and before I could even react, Cui Hongliang had already raised the spear above his head. I looked over and saw a large white test tube hanging from the roof of the stone house. The test tube was filled with some white liquid. Through the light from the fire, I discovered that the white liquid seemed to be moving about in the test tube in a very regular pattern.

Bang!

With a gunshot, the test tube exploded.

That white liquid poured directly onto the top of Cui Hongliang's head. He let out an extremely terrifying and miserable howl. We saw that his skin was peeling off from his body along with the white liquid. His right hand was still tightly holding onto the bomb Detonator as he shouted and charged towards Liao Mengfann and me.

This is bad!

At that time, I suddenly remembered what Liao Mengfann had told me before: ”I will die, and you will die too!”

Liao Mengfann, who was behind me, had already ran past me. I know, she wants to push Cui Hongliang to the end of the stone hut to die with him.

At that time, I don't know where I got the courage to do so, but I stretched out my hand and directly grabbed onto Liao Mengfann's clothes. At the same time, I don't know where I got the strength, but the moment I grabbed onto her clothes, I immediately spun her around and threw her out of the stone house.

Cui Hongliang was so close to me, I subconsciously used all of my strength to raise my leg and directly sent him flying. Immediately afterwards, I turned around and ran out of the stone house with all my might. I could hear the sound of falling drops behind me and a deafening explosion accompanied with dust and shock waves. I was directly thrown out of the stone house.

I fell heavily onto the ground, my back feeling a burning pain. My eyes were a little blurry, and I seemed to see Liao Mengfann right in front of me. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she desperately beat on my chest.

My ears were a little deaf, but the moment I lost consciousness, I seemed to have heard Liao Mengfann's heart-wrenching screams, as if she was saying, ”Why did you save me? ”Why don't you let me die …”
