Chapter five hundred and ninety seventh death to understand(1/2)
Liu Jin was first shocked by Luo Lie's flaws, and then he seemed to be unable to solve the flaws and was desperate. Later, Luo Lie said that he could easily crack them and ignited Liu Jin's hope again. Finally, he heard Luo Lie saying that he was waiting to be hijacked. Liu Jin's thinking was like a roller coaster, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes desperate and sometimes hopeful. His direction was already led by Luo Lie without realizing it.
"We are not stupid. We have thought of this solution for a long time. However, before that, when you were rushing to the seminary every day, there was always Dong Biao following you." When he talked about Dong Biao, Liu Jin couldn't help but sigh, and then said, "We are definitely not afraid of Dong Biao when fighting with bare hands, or long weapons, but if we say that the two revolvers in his hand are indeed weapons that we cannot deal with. Our brothers in the Internal Machinery Bureau have also practiced guns, but compared with Dong Biao, it is more than 100,000 miles away."
Luo Lie said in surprise: "You said Brother Biao has been following me all the time? No wonder! I just thought, then Geng Han is not that stupid, why can't he even think of this method? It turns out that he was concerned about the gun in Brother Biao's hand, which is reasonable. To be honest, Brother Biao doesn't need his rifle, just two revolvers in his hand, which is definitely enough for you to drink a few pots. Maybe even if you put all your people in, you can't catch a hair of mine."
Liu Jin sighed: "Yes, so we have been delayed until today, so we found a way to help Dong Biao, and then we got the opportunity to attack you."
Luo Lie reviewed: "I should have paid attention to what I have behind me long ago. If I knew that Brother Biao had been following me, I would have found a way to help him away. Otherwise, I would not have waited until today. To be honest, I would have been anxious. If you don't do anything, I will give up my plan."
Liu Jin said with gratitude: "Fortunately, we still seized the opportunity. There is a saying that goes, you don't worry about being too late for a good meal. As long as you can eat, don't worry. As long as the conditions you offer are not too excessive, our Geng Master will definitely agree to you."
Luo Lie smiled and said, "Of course I won't offer excessive conditions. The transaction is about fairness."
Liu Jin's eyes revealed a look of admiration, and subconsciously took down the short knife that was placed on Luo Lie's neck and said, "Well, as long as it is a fair transaction, you will definitely get a result that satisfies both parties."
Luo Lie suddenly stared at Liu Jin, smiled strangely, and said, "I said, there is something wrong with the atmosphere between us! You are a robber and I am a hostage. Why are we almost becoming friends in a trance? You should put the knife on it as soon as possible, otherwise I will be very uncomfortable."
Liu Jin smiled bitterly and put the short knife on Luo Lie's shoulder again. This time, the blade was half way from Luo Lie's neck.
The car passed through the city and drove straight to the beach.
Along the way, whenever he reaches an intersection, Luo Lie will cough and then spit out one or two mouthfuls of phlegm.
"How far is it? I'm worried that the car has insufficient oil, so we can't throw the anchor halfway!" Luo Lie leaned forward and looked at a dial showing oil pressure.
Liu Jin replied: "It's almost here, and there are only ten miles at most."
Luo Lie said: "I have to have a good sleep when I arrive. I feel very tired these two days, like I'm infected with wind and cold, and there's a lot of phlegm." After that, I coughed again, and then spit out a mouthful of phlegm.
Liu Jin said: "Listen to Haitao, he will sleep more peacefully. I just happened to take this time to invite Mr. Geng here."
Luo Lie nodded and said, "No wonder Brother Bin sent so many people, but he still couldn't find out about you. It turns out that you were hiding on the boat, what a plan!"
Liu Jin couldn't help but be stunned and felt a little more admiration for Luo Lie. He just mentioned that listening to Haitao sleeping, Luo Lie could immediately think that they were hiding on the boat. His quick thinking was beyond admiration.
It was less than ten minutes' drive from ten miles away. The car then drove to a small fishing port. A rusty iron-mullet fishing boat was parked out of the port. Liu Jin personally sent Luo Lie to the cabin of the iron barge. After settling Luo Lie, Liu Jin explained to the brothers who stayed on the boat and then got off the boat.
The iron barge immediately anchored and left the port.
Liu Jin advised the brother who was driving, and the brother immediately started the car and plunged into the sea. Fortunately, the car was half open, and the brother got rid of the car and swam back to the shore before the car sank into the sea.
After getting ashore, the brother had no time to deal with his soaked clothes, so he followed Liu Jin onto another boat. Compared to the iron barge just now, this boat was much smaller and more simple, and even one person was enough to drive.
As the saying goes, there are three holes in the cunning rabbit. Geng Han is even more cunning than foxes, so he is hiding more than three places. Moreover, even Liu Jin cannot determine where Geng Han is hiding. This is not that Geng Han does not trust Liu Jin, but that he does not believe that someone can hold on to the severe punishment. If Liu Jin fails, his hiding place will be exposed. Therefore, only Geng Han can find Liu Jin on weekdays, but Liu Jin will never be able to find Geng Han on his own initiative. But today is a special day. Geng Han needs Liu Jin to report the results of the action to him in time, so he made an appointment in advance to meet and how to meet.
The soaked brother drove the motor boat and carried Liu Jin south along the coastline for about ten nautical miles, and stopped on the edge of an island and reef not far from the coastline. Liu Jin brought a bundle of wood from the boat and lit a fire on the shore of the island and reef. After the fire broke out, Liu Jin kept pouring sea water on the fire. This was not his boring move. He did this just to make the fire produce thick smoke.
When the fire was about to burn out, I finally saw a motorized boat of about the same size coming from a distance. There was only one person on the boat, which was Geng Han who Liu Jin was going to find.
"Is it still going well?" Geng Han finished the boat, jumped onto the shore, and asked casually. In fact, he had already judged from Liu Jin's expression that his actions must have been very smooth. Luo Lie had already obtained it.
Liu Jin shook his head and said, "Boss, we have overlooked a problem."
Geng Han said: "What's wrong? Didn't you capture Luo Lie?"
Liu Jin shook his head and said, "Luo Lie captured it and has been sent on the boat as planned. Now it must be at least 10 or 20 nautical miles away from the coast. I mean our plan has been considered less."
Geng Han asked in surprise: "What link?"
Liu Jin sighed lightly: "We thought that the cargo ship sailed from the port and entered the depths of the sea. As long as we defended Cao Bin and Dong Biao and did not let them sneak onto the ship, we would be done. However, we ignored one thing. After Cao Bin finished the transaction with us and exchanged it for Luo Lie, we could mobilize the warships of the Federal Navy to catch up with us."
Just as the Federal Navy was mentioned here, Geng Han immediately thought of the destruction of Bill Lane and his gang. That battle was precisely because Cao Bin unexpectedly used the power of the federal army to break the wonderful plan he set.
"This..." Geng Han pondered for a moment, but had to admit that it was indeed a problem he had overlooked: "I really didn't expect this, and Cao Bin could do this. If this result really came true, how should we crack it?" Geng Han's two eyebrows couldn't help but lock them into a lump. However, after thinking for a long time, the lump of eyebrows did not stretch, but instead became even more tight.
"Boss, you may not have thought that this flaw was reminded by Luo Lie!" Liu Jin saw the sorrow on Geng Han's face becoming more and more obvious, and he couldn't help but tell the truth: "He also said that this flaw is an unsolvable flaw for us, but for him, it can be easily solved."
Geng Han glared his eyes wide and said in surprise: "Do you think this flaw was proposed by Luo Lie?"
Liu Jin nodded and said, "Where can I think of the flaw you didn't expect?"
Geng Han thought hard again and murmured: "Why did he do this?"
Liu Jin interrupted, "He said that he wanted to make a deal with you. As long as you agree to the conditions he offered, he will tell you the solution."
Geng Han smiled bitterly and said, "Is it that simple? Is there no conspiracy in it? If you recall it carefully, what else did he say to you?"
Liu Jin said: "He also said that for these days, he has gone to the seminary every morning, and actually deliberately created opportunities for us to hijack him. He also said that we are too stupid and made him wait for a long time before we thought of a way to hijack him and make a deal with Cao Bin."
Geng Han became even more confused. He squinted his eyes and thought for a long time before asking, "Then what would he behave when you do it as soon as possible?"
Liu Jin replied truthfully: "I stabbed him twice, he took a few steps back, and then we surrounded him, and he gave up on the resistance and cooperated to follow us on the car and come to the parking lot."
Geng Han pondered: "It seems that he is not lying, but why is he doing this? Is this his personal wish or Cao Bin's intentional arrangement?"
Liu Jin suggested: "Boss, I thought you should go to see Luo Lie. Without the flying knife, he would be a tiger with all his teeth, which would not pose any threat to you. Besides, the ship is in the depths of the sea, and there is no fear of leaking news."
Geng Han sighed and said, "You are right. You should meet him. Otherwise, these strange things will be difficult to figure out if you only think about them yourself."
Liu Jin said: "Yes, I also asked him why he did this. He replied that when he saw you, he would naturally tell you frankly."
Having said that, Liu Jin and Geng Han formed two completely opposite states.
For Liu Jin, he could not find a reason to doubt Luo Lie's motive. Cao Bin should know Geng Han, and should know that even if Geng Han was captured, it would be difficult to get the jade seal. The only chance was that flaw that Luo Lie reminded. When their cargo ship sailed deep in the sea, mobilized the warships of the federal army to chase after him, and it was over. But this only flaw was mentioned by Luo Lie on his own initiative, which only shows that Luo Lie and Cao Bin were not united. Luo Lie said that he had a way to resolve this flaw. Therefore, Liu Jin thought that as long as Geng Han could agree to the conditions proposed by Luo Lie, the final victory of this plan would still belong to them.
But Geng Han didn't think so. Compared to Liu Jin, Geng Han's thinking was more meticulous and more doubtful. There were two questions in his mind. One was what was wrong with Anliangtang? So that Lu Yao and Cao Bin became enemies, and Luo Lie also showed that he had a two-minded heart with Cao Bin. The second was that the flaw was clearly unsolvable, but Luo Lie said that it could be easily resolved. Is this statement true or a fraud? These two questions made Geng Han's heart cold as ice, and he had a premonition of failure. If the situation was not still in a controllable and safe state, he might have made a decision to give up completely.
Thinking of the current situation, Geng Han was a little relieved. Whether it was Lu Yao or Luo Lie, whether they were true or false, or what their purpose was, the two of them were firmly in their hands. Moreover, the team of brothers under Liu Jin was personally trained by Geng Han in their early years and could definitely stand the test of tracking and counter-tracking. Even if Cao Bin intends to do a game, they can get rid of An Liangtang's tracking and surveillance.
"Don't be impatient. After Lu Yao arranged the message to send, it would not be too late for us to see Luo Lie again." Geng Han thought about it and finally decided to meet Luo Lie.
For Geng Han and Liu Jin, Lu Yao was just a piece on the chessboard they played against Cao Bin. Although it was very important, after playing a role, he became a useless person. As for what Liu Jin said when he met him, he still had some useful words in the Qing Dynasty, it was just a negotiation skill.
However, although this chess piece became a useless piece, it has not yet become an abandoned piece. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it is controlled to cut off the connection between him and Cao Bin and Dong Biao. It is only good but not bad for him. After waiting for about half an hour, a small boat finally arrived in the direction of the coastline. The one who was driving the boat was the brother who pretended to be a postman who sent a signal to Lu Yao. The brother brought unexpected good news. After listening to the report, Geng Han pondered for a moment and ordered: "It's time to meet Luo Lie! Old Liu and I go with you. You two will drive the boat back and wait for me in the mountains!"
When Geng Han and Liu Jin boarded the ship, Luo Lie was still sleeping soundly in the cabin.
"Did he have any abnormal behavior?" Geng Han did not rush to wake Luo Lie up, but sat down patiently and asked about Luo Lie's performance after he got on the ship.
The brother on the boat replied, "This kid was seasick and vomited several times before he calmed down for a while."
"Seasick?" Geng Han couldn't help but look at the sea and said, "The sea surface is calm and the waves are no different from staying on the boat and staying on the land. How could he feel seasick?"
The brother on the boat smiled embarrassedly and said, "We didn't go straight, we made a few bends on the sea." The brother said, and gestured to a S shape with his hands. "The boat drove a little faster, let alone him, even I felt a little dizzy."
Geng Han nodded and said, "You are doing the right thing, it's always okay to be cautious."
The brothers on the boat were praised by Geng Han, and were very excited and asked diligently: "Boss, do you want to call that boy up and answer your question?"
Geng Han lit a cigarette, took a sip, and replied, "Let him sleep for a while. Try to keep the boat steady. If a person does not have a good rest, it will affect his mood. If the mood is depressed, it will affect his conversation. We have time and can afford to wait for him."
It took more than two hours to wait until noon, and Na Luo Lie woke up from his deep sleep.
After sleeping for so long, Luo Lie's face still looked very bad and his spirit was quite depressed. The brothers on the boat invited him to the deck. When Luo Lie saw Geng Han and Liu Jin, he just said hello lazily: "We have met, I recognize you, you are Geng Han."
Geng Han asked the brothers on the boat to arrange a chair for Luo Lie and sat down. He looked at Luo Lie carefully and said with a smile: "That's right, we have met. Your flying knife is good. You'll catch up with your master's old ghost."
Luo Lie snorted coldly and said, "He is also your master!"
Geng Han shook his head and sighed, "I want to call him Master, but unfortunately, he doesn't like me, so he drove me out of the Master without any affection."
Luo Lie mocked, "Who can you blame? Master hates the most is the court hawks, but you are the backbone of the Internal Machinery Bureau. Master is already very sympathetic to just expel you from the Master. If it were me, it might be just a start if you were to destroy your martial arts."
Geng Han smiled and said, "He wants to kill me, but I run faster than him. He can't catch up with me, so he can only fool the world with such a painless punishment as being expelled from the master."
Luo Lie waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it, I can't tell anyone like you. If you talk too much, it will hurt your kindness. In the end, it will be a bad result of both sides. Geng Han, your subordinates should have reported it to you. Have you come up with a strategy for that flaw?"
Geng Han smiled, lit a cigarette, took a few sips slowly and happily, and then said, "If I come up with a response strategy, do I still need to come to see you? Tell me, what conditions do you want to tell me your answer."
Luo Lie laughed a few times and said, "Geng Han, you are very smart, but I am not stupid. If you want to resolve this flaw that is absolutely unsolvable for you, you must find Brother Bin Biao's biggest weakness. But when I fell into your hands, I was definitely not Brother Biao's biggest weakness. At most, I can only get you to successfully load the goods onto a steamer, but I will never escape the pursuit of the federal army and warships. So, once I tell the answer, my Luo Lie's value will quickly return to zero. At that time, you only need to stab me a few times and throw me into the sea and everything will be done. How can I worry about the price I offered?"
Luo Lie's words were reasonable, and Geng Han had to believe them after hearing them.
For Cao Bin, Luo Lie's life is indeed important. There should be no problem in exchanging that batch of goods. However, if Cao Bin wants to get the promise of not using the federal warship, it is extremely pale. Even if Cao Bin promises, no one can believe it. Geng Han once thought about leaving Luo Lie on the cargo ship to threaten Cao Bin not to act rashly. But deeper, Cao Bin is definitely not a person who is willing to abandon righteousness for the sake of his brother's lives, and even for the sake of his righteousness in his heart, he dares to sacrifice his own life. Therefore, if Luo Lie ultimately threatens the chips, it is probably difficult to even achieve the goal of loading the cargo onto the ship.
Then, you must find Cao Bin’s bigger weakness!
Luo Lie in front of him was obviously a smart man. He had been together as a successor in Anliangtang for more than eight months. He should be extremely familiar with Cao Bin and Dong Biao. It should be reasonable that he could understand and master Cao Bin's biggest weakness.
"Then how can you tell your conditions?" Geng Han unconsciously made a compromise and took a step back.
It's like fighting with bare hands. In the face of absolute power, all fighting skills are futile. In negotiations, the core of the competition is mentality. If you lose to your opponent in terms of mentality, you can't escape the end of being led by your opponent. Geng Han unconsciously made a compromise, which means that he has lost to Luo Lie in terms of mentality. Then, in the next conversation, he will inevitably be dominated by Luo Lie.
After Luo Lie took over the dominant position, he did not rush to achieve success. Instead, he laughed and said something surprised Geng Han, including Liu Jin beside him: "I'm hungry, I want to eat something first. I'm a very sensible person. I would rather starve to death than move my chopsticks when I don't have any food."
There was food on the ship, but Luo Lie on the opposite side had already said to death. He would never eat unsavory food. Taking out the food stored on the ship to entertain him must be the result of a wall. After a moment of stunned silence, Geng Han thought for a moment, and ordered the brothers on the ship, "The ship turns the rudder and sails back to the port."
Just as the ship slowly turned its direction, a beggar led a hunting dog near the dock where the ship had been moored for a long time. The beggar's head was unkempt and still couldn't tell whether it was a foreigner or a Chinese. However, although the dog was dirty and diarrhea, his behavior always revealed the noble temperament that only purebred German shepherds possessed.
One man and one dog wandered around the dock, neither asking for money nor food. The beggar seemed very disappointed and sighed and staggered away from the dock.
After a moment, a fishmonger who looked like a foreigner brought several Chinese coolies to the dock and asked everywhere whether there were fishing boats that could allow them to buy some seafood. Coincidentally, a fisherman happened to have a fishing boat approached the dock, and the fishmonger immediately surrounded him. After some bargaining, the fishmonger wrapped all the seafood on the fishing boat. Maybe it was because he had gotten cheaper in price or maybe he had bought seafood that was not easy to buy. When the fishmonger left, his smile was very bright.
Although the fishing port is not big, there are only three or five piers where boats can be moored, there are many fishmongers who come to collect goods every day, including familiar people and strange faces. Like the foreign mermaid peddler just now, it is really common. As for the beggar holding a dog, it is even more eye-catching. Unless it is windy and rainy, you can meet at least seven or eight of them in the day.
Walking up from the second pier, there was a Chinese restaurant at the intersection, which was said to be a restaurant. In fact, it was just a bungalow as a kitchen. Two bamboo sheds were built to place four tables. Although the conditions of this restaurant were simple, the chef who was the chef had excellent cooking skills. No matter what fish it was or other seafood, as long as it was handed over to him, he could make dishes with good colors, fragrance and taste. The restaurant was not long after it was opened, but the chef who was the chef had already spread throughout the local area, so the business was pretty good. Strangely, no matter how busy it was, there were only two people in the restaurant, one was cooking and the other was running.
The young man who ran the hall was a young man who spoke blunt English and had many diners at noon. The man was busy all over the place. Therefore, when the beggar holding a dog came to ask for food, the man drove away the beggar in anger and almost fucked. When the fishmonger arrived, the man was stunned for a few seconds, looked at the fishmonger and the coolie behind him, and then he was busy with whatever he should do.
It was already past noon and there were fewer diners in the restaurant. Master Zhangshao finally got some free time. He walked out of the kitchen and came under the bamboo shed. The young man who ran the hall immediately greeted him, handed over a foreign cigarette first, and then drew a match. Master Zhangshao had just lit the cigarette, and heard two short, one long and three whistles coming from the sea.
Master Zhangshao and the young master of the hall heard the whistle, and his expression suddenly snarled on his face. The master Zhangshao quickly took a few sips, threw the remaining half of the cigarette on the ground, turned around and crawled back to the kitchen. The young master of the hall followed closely and also crawled into the kitchen.
Another quarter of an hour later, the iron barge fishing boat that Geng Hanluo Lie and his friends rode on the dock, and in the small restaurant here, the master of the scoop also made four exquisite dishes. The young man packed it in a food box, ran down to the dock, and personally delivered the iron barge. The brothers on the boat had already set up a round table on the deck. The young man of the hall did not say a word, and quickly placed the four dishes on the table, and took out a few hot steamed buns from the bottom of the food box.
To be continued...
