Chapter 340

Wang An ran back to the front of the dugout entrance, seeing that the thick smoke in the dugout hadn't flown out much, he once again suppressed the thought of rushing in to find the gun.

Then Wang An turned to Zhang Shuya and said:

"Officer Zhang, let's go first; I'll come back in a while; I estimate that by then, this smoke will have dissipated quite a bit."

When Wang An said "I'll come back in a while," he clearly saw Brother Nine's eyes move.

Wang An suddenly realized that in this dugout, Brother Nine's secrets might also be hidden.

However, Wang An calmly pretended not to see it, instead waiting for Zhang Shuya to issue orders.

Only hearing Zhang Shuya say: "Look at your stingy look, such a big man, not even as good as a good woman; I'll give you two new guns; is it okay if we don't want that gun?"

Wang An glanced at Zhang Shuya and said with a smile: "Then it's a deal."

After Wang An finished speaking, he clearly noticed that Brother Nine showed a look of relief.

However, this also strengthened Wang An's thought of coming back to find the gun.

Zhang Shuya saw Wang An's face and instantly had a feeling of being cheated.

However, Zhang Shuya, as a "serious, pure man," didn't have the thought of going back on her word; perhaps the Type 54 pistol really didn't mean much to her.

Only hearing Zhang Shuya say: "Oh my, such a small matter, could I still lie to you? Hurry up, you carry him on your back; we have to go."

Wang An looked at Brother Nine lying on the ground, then looked at Zhang Shuya, helplessly pulled out the hunting knife from his waist, and handed it along with the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle in his hand to Zhang Shuya to hold.

Looking left and right, he picked up the two small knives Brother Nine had thrown on the ground, then stuffed them into his own pocket.

I have to say, these small knives looked quite exquisite; using them to sharpen pencils for his younger siblings in the future would be simply perfect.

Then Wang An bent down, pulled Brother Nine's arm, and dragged Brother Nine onto his own back.

Fortunately, after such a long time, the bloodstains on Brother Nine's wrists and legs had already frozen, otherwise Wang An's small padded jacket and trousers would have been stained with quite a bit of blood.

Just like this, Wang An carried Brother Nine in front, and Zhang Shuya carried the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and held the hunting knife, following behind, walking together toward the sled.

I have to say, even with Wang An's large frame and strength, carrying a person and walking on the snow felt truly not ordinarily heavy.

On the way, Zhang Shuya tried to ask Brother Nine about the situation in the forbidden area, but Brother Nine acted as if he hadn't heard, not saying a single word.

Zhang Shuya was so angry she was gnashing her teeth, but she was also helpless.

Even with bullets hitting his body, Brother Nine could manage not to make a sound.

Then even after going back, if Zhang Shuya and the others used some methods on Brother Nine, it's estimated it would be hard to ask anything out.

Wang An knew how ruthless the people who sold "earth smoke balls" were.

They were truly devoid of humanity; no matter who it was, including themselves, they were all that ruthless.

However, this also had a prerequisite, which was that they themselves were not people who touched "earth smoke balls."

Once addicted, it was basically a waste.

Because when that urge came, the whole person would be yawning, itching all over, listless, sweating and afraid of the cold, limbs twitching... and so on.

Anyway, it was a pathetic look of neither human nor ghost.

So it's also possible that after going back, Zhang Shuya and the others wouldn't need to use methods at all, and Brother Nine would say everything.

However, these were not things Wang An should be concerned about.

Just when Wang An was so tired he was about to be unable to hold on, the three of them finally walked up to the sled.

Mu Xueli and Wang Li saw Wang An carrying a bloody person back and were very sensible, not asking anything.

Placing Brother Nine on the wild boar skin that had already been frozen stiff, Wang An sat on the sled and didn't want to move. This is damn truly tired! More tired than chasing dogs!

After a long while, Wang An shouted to Mu Xueli and Wang Li: "Let's go."

After Wang An shouted, he drove the sled forward, but in his heart, he was pondering that he must come back again as soon as possible.

Although Wang An didn't know what was in the dugout, since Brother Nine valued it so much, it must be good stuff.

On the way, Wang An asked Zhang Shuya: "Where are we taking him?"

Consequently, Wang An said with a firm attitude:

"We mountain-goers can't break the rules; don't decline, okay."

Wang An said this while stuffing the 5 large unity notes into Sun Nian's pocket.

Then, Sun Nian's beautiful little face was about to smile into a flower, but her mouth said:

"Then... then thank you for helping, comrade." Wang An, hearing this, almost fell off the sled; so quickly it became "helping"?

I have to say, this woman was indeed familiar with the rules of mountain-goers, and clearly knew this money was what she deserved.

However, in Wang An's view, Sun Nian doing this had no problem at all; why shouldn't she take the money she earned with her life?

The other three people saw this scene with envious eyes.

One must know that 50 yuan in this era is almost the salary of a formal employee for a month and a half!

Galloping all the way, the few people soon arrived at Wang An's house.

What made Wang An puzzled was that Zhang Shuya had already returned.

Although he didn't know how the interrogation of Brother Nine went, Wang An didn't even have the interest to ask a single sentence.

And Sun Nian, seeing Zhang Shuya, cried while hugging Zhang Shuya, saying while crying:

"I thought I would never see you again."

And Zhang Shu

Even if they are finally rescued, can that damn be the same?

And Brother Nine might also feel that he deserved his crime, not showing even the slightest intention of blaming Wang An.

Just when the five of them were halfway there, the sun in the sky was suddenly covered by dark clouds.

Following closely, snow fell down.

The weather in the Northeast is like this; in summer and autumn, if there's a cloud, it rains; in winter and spring, if there's a cloud, it snows.

However, the locals were long used to it, and no one took it to heart; let it damn snow however it wants.

After a while, the snow still showed no signs of stopping.

Wang An subconsciously looked up at the sky, and his heart instantly became happy, because the dark clouds were gathering more and more, which meant that this snow would seriously fall for a while.

And the reason for Wang An's happiness was very simple, because as long as the snow was thick enough, fewer people would enter the mountains, and fewer people entering the mountains meant fewer people would go to the dugout.

As long as no one went to the dugout, the things inside, including Wang An's Type 54, would be safer.

Compared to Wang An's good mood, Sun Nian's mood at this time was simply terrible.

Because at this time, Sun Nian's only teammate, Che Yongping, was injured.

If one were to say this matter wasn't Sun Nian's fault, nor was it her teammate Che Yongping's fault, but damn it was the radio's fault.

When the two were searching, Che Yongping kept trying to use the radio to send signals, but this radio, which in principle had no problems, was like having a seizure; the signal was sometimes there and sometimes not.

Then Che Yongping was fiddling with it while walking, and not paying attention, both the person and the radio fell into a ditch together.
