Gossip King - Chapter 322
Chapter 322 Two Dead Ends
Four hours ago.
In the depths of Monkey Mountain, there was a waterfall. Although it was not very beautiful, the amount of water was very large. A huge puddle of water rushed out from below. The puddle was bottomless and emitted an oily green light.
At this time, the sky darkened slightly. It was cold in summer and autumn, and a layer of water mist rippled slightly on the water surface. The scenery was excellent.
The puddle stretched twenty meters down, and the water was still very fast but much shallower, but no matter how shallow it was, it was as shallow as his waist. A man standing in the fast-flowing water was wearing only a T-shirt. His entire body was drenched and trembling. His lips were purple and his face was deathly pale.
He could barely stand, his waist bent slightly, his hands on his knees to prevent his body from falling, and his pale arms showed that he had been in the water for at least two hours.
His arms were as white as a corpse and swollen. Looking carefully, strands of blood plasma floated around his palm. There was a big hole in his palm, but the water flowed quickly and the blood was quickly diluted.
His eyes were filled with despair as he looked at the shore. His lips opened several times and his entire body was waving. It was unknown whether it was cold or weak.
Suddenly, his body tilted, his legs softened, and he tilted into the water with a plump sound. Water splashed everywhere. He struggled a few times, and after choking on a few mouthfuls of water, he stood up again with a slight tremor. However, it took him almost half a minute to get out of the predicament with the water at his waist.
This man was bald.
A bald bald man on the verge of death.
“Damn, he lost again. This brat is too weak. Why is he choking on water again?!” The moment the baldy plunged into the water, a man slapped his thigh angrily and jumped up from the ground. Then, he pulled out a hundred from his pocket and threw it into the hands of another man.
‘”Haha, I’ve earned another hundred. Aiya, I’ve got the wine money today. This stingy guy is not bad, wang Longzi. I said that your eyesight is too bad. How long can his body last? Come on, let’s continue gambling. Mm … He’ll definitely choke on water once in eight minutes. A hundred bets. Do you want to follow me?”
“Gamble! I bet he’ll choke on water next time, at least in ten minutes.” The man who had lost was obviously unconvinced. His voice was exceptionally loud. He pulled up the sleeve on his arm and pointed at the bald man whose face was almost ashen in the water. He shouted, “Can you f*cking fight for breath? Give the workers ten minutes to resist!”
On the shore, there were three people sitting on the ground, playing cards and looking at the baldy in the water, playing the game of gambling.
The stakes weren’t big. A hundred at a time was a simple bet. The baldy wouldn’t be able to hold on for many minutes and would plunge into the water.
This bet had already lasted for two hours.
Staying in waist-deep water for two hours was different from staying on shore for two hours, not to mention that his hand had been strangled with some unknown method.
When the blood flowed to a certain extent, it would automatically freeze, especially in the water. This would not directly take his life, but it would greatly consume his energy.
“I’ll bet one point.” “The next time he pours it into the water, he won’t be able to get up and will die,” a baritone that makes his hair stand on end said. The one who said this was Lin Gao.
“One point? Lin Da, you’re too stingy.”
“Lin Da, one point … why didn’t you say one cent?”
Hearing Lin Gao’s words, the two younger brothers laughed out loud and teased him.
“His life is worth ten cents.” Lin Gao said with a rather regretful expression, “I’m just looking at meat for money. It’s worth ten cents. I can’t do anything about it. My life is cheap.”
Hahahaha, everyone’s laughter echoed in the forest.
“It’s getting cold. Add some clothes. It’s really cold in this forest.” A little brother took out a coat from his bag and put it on.
“Add clothes.” Lin Gao nodded. He stood up and patted his butt. He took his coat and put it on. As he put it on, he glanced sideways at the bald man who was soaking in the water. “Baldy, it’s cold. You can’t stand it anymore. Tell me, brother, I’ve prepared clean clothes and wine for you. I’ll just wait for you to say one word.”
As he spoke, he took out his clothes from his backpack and waved his hand. Then, he pointed to the wine on the side.
The bald man raised his eyelids with difficulty, looked at it, and then lowered his eyelids.
“Heh, this person is really skinny. He’s already half dead, yet he doesn’t know what to do?”
“Damn it, it’s been so long. I’ll go down and give it to him. I promise he’ll do it in one go. Lin Da, I’m very good at this. Don’t fucking waste it. It’s already dark.”
When the two men saw that the bald man hadn’t reacted yet, they were infuriated and were about to go into the water to make a move.
“Calm down.” Lin Gao’s face darkened as he glared at the two of them. The two of them quickly lost their smiles and only looked at the bald man fiercely.
Suddenly, the bald man in the water moved his body. The desire for life in his eyes grew stronger and stronger. He raised his head and slowly moved towards the shore.
Every step he took, he almost fell down.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
The bald man stopped and continued to walk forward with a disdainful laugh on his face.
“If we leave again, I’ll shoot!”
“Damn it, you don’t want to die anymore?!”
Seeing that he was still moving forward, the two younger brothers loaded their bullets and aimed at him, roaring angrily.
The baldy didn’t seem to hear their warning, but the strange smile on his face grew thicker and thicker. He raised his extremely heavy eyelids and stared at Lin Gao.
“Isn’t it just one death? If I die, you won’t be able to get away with it. I’m a hooligan, and I even play underworld tricks. If I die, there are plenty of people coming to pay you back.” He moved his dark purple lips and said, extremely weak but incomparably firm.
Hmph.
Lin Gao sneered and waved his hand, “Put down the gun.”
The two younger brothers were stunned for a moment before glancing at each other and putting down their guns.
“Don’t think that I don’t dare to kill you.” Lin Gao patted his little brother beside him, “These two people are from the Western Gang.”
The baldy seemed a little surprised, but he didn’t believe it.
“So what? It’s just a death. If you want to die, feel better.” The bald man raised his swollen hand and pointed at his heart. “My life is worth a bullet. Hurry up.”
As he spoke, he raised his foot and continued walking forward.
After soaking in the water for so long, the blood in his palms caused him to lose all his strength and energy. The spring water was icy cold to the bone, and he felt even colder in the evening.
In the end, he just fainted and fell into the water to drown.
In any case, it would be better to die faster.
“I won’t agree to your conditions. In any case, they are all dead. Why are you taking such a detour?” The bald man raised his head and said, “I understand. Shoot.”
Hahahaha.
Lin Gao suddenly laughed. His voice was strange and loud. It was extremely disgusting and terrifying in the dark forest in the evening.
“Baldy, are you dumbfounded by the water bubble?” Lin Gao smiled so hard that his waist bent down. He pointed at the two people behind him again. “These two are from the Western Gang, didn’t I tell you? They’re from the Western Gang! You still don’t understand?”
As he spoke, he took out a large photo from his bag and lifted it up impatiently. “It’s getting late, and I’ve tortured you enough. Take a look, and then tell me your decision,” he said impatiently.
In the photo, four children surrounded a bearded man with a lollipop in his hand and laughed happily.
The bearded man had a particularly conspicuous azure dragon in his hand.
When the bald man saw this, his face turned ashen.
“Your nephews and nephews like him very much.” Lin Gao pointed.
Everyone knew that Azure Dragons were tattooed on the arms of the people from the Western Faction, and the baldy knew the meaning of this photo.
If he didn’t comply, then his nephew and nephew would have to …
“What exactly are you doing?! Lin Gao, if you want to die or live, give me a word!” When the baldy saw this, his mind completely collapsed. “Put me down here, press down on the water, and threaten to shoot me right away. It’s been several hours. Now that I’m begging for my life, what do you mean by not letting me die?!”
The bald man used his last bit of strength and shouted at the top of his lungs. After shouting twice, he lost his balance and fell into the water again.
This time, he swam in the water for nearly a minute and choked on countless drool before he stood up.
When he stood up, his face no longer looked like a human face, as if he was dead.
“Alright, I’ll tell you my purpose.” Lin Gao looked at the bald man and thought that he would die if he continued to play, so a chill suddenly appeared in his eyes.
The fire was here, and he could use a powerful medicine now.
“I’ll give you two dead ends. Choose one.” Lin Gao paused word by word as he stabbed into the bald man’s lifeline.
It seemed that he was dead anyway.
But … two dead ends?
The bald man lowered his head and no longer had the strength to raise his head. Fear and doubt surged up together.
‘”A dead end. You stayed in the water until you drowned. Oh right, your niece and niece are also with you. How lively is this place? It’s actually a good place to die. There are mountains and waters. When your corpses float downstream, people will only think that you fell into the puddle and drowned. The wounds on your hands were caused by catching the water grass when your lives were hanging.” Lin Gao pointed to a bush of grass beside him and said, “Your blood is already on it. It’s convenient for people to investigate.”
“What about the other one?” The bald man asked.
“On the other hand, help me perjure myself. Take the powder and frame Gaoleng, drag him into the police station.” Lin shrugged.
“Entering the bureau is a dead end.” The bald man sighed softly and stared at Lin Gao with a cold smile, “I really have two desperate paths to choose.”
“En, who am I to follow? The first path is dead. The children will die with you. The second path is dead. You go to the police station and Gaoleng will die with you. There’s an old grandfather in your family. I’ll give him 10,000 yuan. I’ll give him 10,000 yuan. How about it? Isn’t it good for you? Brother?”
Lin Gao laughed arrogantly.
He was confident.
The bald man’s eyes darkened. He lowered his head and remained silent for a moment before suddenly laughing wildly. He said, “Brother, ten thousand yuan is a cheap life.”
Hahahahaha.
Ever since he took his first mouthful of powder, he had embarked on this path of no return, and he had long since understood. These past few years, his hands had been stained with blood, human lives, virgins.
He had thought of countless times when he had stepped onto a dead end, but this day had truly come, and he was no longer as carefree as he used to be.
After all, it was only one life.
After laughing for a long time, he laughed until tears almost came out of his eyes. His body almost fell into the water again. He stretched out his hand and said, “Pull me up. I can’t move anymore. Brother, I’m going to perjure myself.”
