Chapter 162 What’s going on?
Xu Qingchang hit back without showing any weakness, his face full of disdain and anger, and he seemed extremely dissatisfied with Qiao Jin's accusations.
Qiao Jin's heart was beating violently as she thought of the misfortune her father had suffered due to the failure of his mission.
She closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again after a moment, her gaze towards Xu Qingchang turned scarlet, as if burning with fire: "Xu Qingchang, do you have anything to do with my father's death? With teammates like this, who can complete the mission!"
There was a strong sense of pain and resentment in her words.
After hearing this, Xu Qingchang became even more furious and almost exploded.
He yelled directly at Qiao Jin: "Shut up!"
After saying that, he broke free from the man's restraints, strode forward, reached out and grabbed Qiao Jin's chin, forcing her to look at him.
"Try saying something again!"
His eyes were full of threats and anger, and he had obviously lost his usual calmness.
Qiao Jin's eyes were full of sarcasm as she stared at Xu Qingchang.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, but her tone was extremely cold: "Why, did I hit you where it hurts? Xu Qingchang, you are not worthy of being a human being!"
Her words revealed deep contempt and hatred.
Seeing the two people arguing fiercely, the man couldn't help but glance at Qiao Jin and started to think in his mind.
This woman is indeed a rare character as Le Fei said.
He felt that if he could bring this woman back to the organization and hand her over to the boss, the boss would definitely be very satisfied.
So he took another step forward, and the blade in his hand flashed a cold light, looking particularly gloomy in the dim light.
"Give her to me and don't reveal any of our information."
He said in a cold voice, every word was like a knife, piercing into the heart.
"Otherwise, I guarantee that none of you will leave Congjia Village alive!"
His tone was full of determination and majesty.
Old man Li was listening at the side and was about to retort, but when he saw the fierce look in the man's eyes, he was so scared that his whole body trembled. He opened his mouth but dared not say a word.
Xu Qingchang looked back at the man, a plan in mind, trying to take advantage of him: "It's no problem for me to give you this woman, but she's someone our captain values very much. How about this, give me some benefits, and I'll keep it a secret for you, what do you think?"
"Xu Qingchang, are you still a human being?"
Hearing this, Qiao Jin could hardly control his emotions and almost broke down and yelled.
On the other side, Xu Qingchang still had no reaction, but in the eyes of that man, the smile on his face seemed full of irony.
"Want a little extra goodness, huh?"
He asked coldly.
To show his attitude, Xu Qingchang nodded vigorously to confirm.
The next moment, to everyone's surprise, the man suddenly pulled out a syringe from his pocket and stabbed it into Xu Qingchang's neck without hesitation.
The sudden severe pain made Xu Qingchang scream involuntarily, but he had no time to react at all because the man quickly withdrew his hand and ended it all.
Then, the man grabbed the wrist of Qiao Jin, who was standing trembling beside him, and prepared to forcibly take her out of the room.
However, when they were about to step out of the door, an unexpected obstacle suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
When I looked down carefully, I found that there was an iron chain tightly fixed behind the door to prevent others from entering or leaving.
In response, the man took out a machete from his equipment without hesitation and chopped it off cleanly.
Throughout the whole process, one could clearly notice Qiao Jin's fingers trembling slightly due to fear.
After successfully removing all obstacles, the man pulled Qiao Jin out again.
Although her body was forced to follow, her eyes were fixed on Xu Qingchang who remained where he was, until the two of them disappeared from his sight.
It was not until the cover was completely closed that no sound from the outside world could be heard.
At this moment, Old Man Li stood aside, looking at the empty floor, feeling confused and embarrassed - he had never expected that there was such a secret passage hidden under his house!
Seeing that the woman who was once within his reach had escaped like this, Old Man Li's face became extremely ugly. He rushed out the door without even saying a word of goodbye. He had only one thought in his mind: he must catch this woman back no matter what!
In his opinion, even if he fails to have children with her, at least he has a partner to take care of his daily needs, which is much better than living alone.
So, Old Man Li quickened his pace and left the place in a hurry.
He tried to take bigger steps with each step, fearing that he was not walking fast enough.
On the other side, Xu Qingchang covered his injured neck, his face turned blue and his brows were furrowed.
I felt a tingling sensation in the wound, and I didn't know what kind of potion the other party had injected into me.
But please don't let him die like this!
Thinking of this, a cold sweat oozed from his back, soaking his clothes.
The chaotic footsteps outside the house were gradually approaching, making Xu Qingchang uneasy.
I quickly adjusted my facial expression, trying to make myself look more natural.
Just as he stepped out of the door, he ran into Chang Jian and Xiang Pengfei who were rushing over.
Upon seeing Xu Qingchang, Chang Jianshi's eyes widened and he asked with a harsh accusation in his voice, "What did you do in the room just now?"
Chang Jian was wary of this person who always made him uneasy and had almost no trust in him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Xiang Pengfei beside him, pushed away Xu Qingchang who was blocking the way, and rushed towards the earthen house quickly, as if there was something important waiting for him to deal with.
When they stepped into the hut, they were hit by a disgusting stench that almost made them fall to the ground.
Looking around, I saw all kinds of things piled up everywhere. The environment was dirty and messy, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time.
Turning back to look at Xu Qingchang who was still standing there motionless, Chang Jian asked in a tough tone: "What on earth just happened here?"
Faced with the question, Xu Qingchang certainly would not mention Qiao Jin's matter, and replied calmly: "An old man just ran away from here."
"Just an old man? Has anyone else shown up?"
Chang Jian continued to ask.
Xu Qingchang laughed contemptuously, a glint of disdain flashing in his eyes: "Apart from that old man, who else could appear in this kind of ghost place?"
Seeing the other party's attitude, Chang Jian became even angrier and pointed at the iron chain hanging in the corner: "Then tell me, what's going on with this iron chain?"
