Chapter 144 Tan Jiao Eighteen (4)

  He knew I was close, but didn't lift his head. He freed one hand, took two puffs of smoke, and actually smiled, saying: "We won't die here. I'll definitely take you out." Then that big hand, stained with blood and smoke, pressed against my face. I didn't move, breathing lightly, feeling his comfort. After a while, his hand came down.

  My heart suddenly calmed down, all the panic, confusion and anxiety disappeared. Only his true appearance was in front of me.

  The old lady downstairs was still trembling, mumbling: "I... I... didn't... go, go..." Su Wen held a finger ring in her hand and squatted in front of the old lady, bringing her hand close to the old lady's eyes, saying: "Your treasure is here."

  The old lady was clearly taken aback, but for a moment she froze, staring blankly at the ring, saying nothing. Su Wen smiled. But Chen Baozhu beside her burst into tears and said, "Mother, let's just give them everything! You can't take it with you when you're born or when you die, as long as we can all survive... Mother, I want to think that you'll be okay, that our whole family will be okay..." She was crying so hard she was almost unrecognizable, but her eyes shone with determination. My heart ached, and I realized that Chen Baozhu, who had seemed so dull and wooden, was actually a sentimental person.

  The old lady was quiet, from my angle, I only saw Chen Baozhu hugging her, while Su Wei stood up. Chen Baozhu suddenly put her ear to the old lady's mouth, and Su Wei's eyes lit up. After a while, Chen Baozhu showed a surprised expression, and Su Wei coldly opened his mouth: "What did she say?"

  "She said... and also the string of sinking fragrance hand chain, in the water tank in the basement of the backyard. My mom... has already handed over the two most valuable things passed down from our ancestors, can you please let us go?"

  I could clearly feel that the emotions of the gangsters were quite excited, Su Wu smiled and said: "If you had been so honest earlier, wouldn't it have been a happy ending for everyone?" With a wave of his hand, the two gangsters left the door.

  That basement we went before, the house door is usually closed, cold, dark and full of miscellaneous items. I guess the bandits didn't search carefully before.

  The atmosphere fell into waiting again.

  But I didn't expect that another accident would happen tonight.

  About 10 minutes later, the sound of hurried footsteps and panting came from outside the house. One of the bandits who had gone to fetch the agarwood rosary rushed in with a blood-stained chest and a look of shock on his face.

  Su Wu suddenly stood up: "What happened?"

  That man stuttered and pointed at Chen Baozhu, saying: "The basement has...has...has traps! A dagger shot out from the wall and killed Dawang!"

  His words were too bizarre, and everyone was silent. Chen Baozhu also had a confused face. Su Wei reacted the fastest, taking a step out of the house, followed by several bandits, leaving only two people to guard the crowd with evil eyes.

  I exchanged a glance with Wu Yu, and we saw the doubt in each other's eyes.

  Soon, Su Wei returned with a cold face. The big Wang didn't come, it was clear that he couldn't be saved. Su Wei pulled Chen Baozhu up from the ground and roared: "What's going on? You set a trap? You actually set a trap? My brother is dead!" The other bandits also showed ferocity in their eyes. But Su Wei's tone was extremely incredulous.

  Chen Baozhu's face turned pale, and she said: "You... what are you talking about? I don't understand at all. The basement is usually used to store miscellaneous items, how can there be a trap? How could I set a trap? I... I..." She was extremely flustered.
