Chapter 2038: The road is uneven
Lin Ran noticed that there was only one person following him.
Now is the best time to get out of trouble.
He walked directly towards the other exit of East Stone Valley.
The person following him was obviously a little anxious. He looked back and saw that his younger brother had just left. Now it was too late to go back and call him.
After careful consideration, he decided to follow Lin Ran himself.
He walked out of the stall area and walked towards a deserted location.
The man also gradually took out a piece of black cloth from his pocket and covered his mouth, just like Jiang Yang Dao in the movie.
As there were fewer and fewer people on the road, he finally took action.
He rushed behind Lin Ran and wanted to put a knife to his neck from behind.
But Lin Ran had already expected him and had been observing him with his peripheral vision.
The sound of footsteps before he made his move was undoubtedly a signal to launch an attack. Lin Ran kicked his legs back and landed on the chest of the man in black who was about to reach him.
This kick was not accurate, but Lin Ran had another move.
When the man in black was about to chop it off with a knife, a pool of sand suddenly appeared in Lin Ran's left hand and was thrown directly into his face.
Dazzled by the sand, the man in black couldn't open his eyes for a moment. A sharp pain came and he waved the knife around.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Ran had retreated to a safe distance.
He picked up a stone on the ground and thought back to Lao Hei's throwing knife gesture.
Aiming at the wrist of the man in black, he threw a stone at it.
"what!"
There was a wailing sound.
Lin Ran didn't throw the stone at his wrist, and the stone fell directly on his forehead.
This throw took a lot of force, and blood flowed from his forehead instantly, turning the black cloth red.
This place is very remote, and the wailing sound echoes in the mountains and forests. People at the East Stone Valley Market should have heard it.
The man who just went shopping was startled when he heard this sound.
Their tracking of Lin Ran was exposed!
Brother is in danger!
He didn't count the things in his hands and ran directly towards the exit.
Other tourists gathered at the exit and looked at his back.
Some old Jianghu had already guessed who they were and shook their heads.
"Anyone who commits unrighteousness will be punished by his own death." They can only comfort themselves with these words.
Anyway, they all come together as a group and are not afraid of being entangled with such people.
As for the kid who left just now, he can only hope for his own blessings. "
On the other side, Lin Ran grabbed his wrist while he was in great pain, snatched the knife away, then pressed him to the ground and asked: "Who are you? Why are you following me?!"
"I want to die!" Although the man in black could not see, he was still resisting with brute force.
If Lin Ran hadn't gone to the tomb frequently and developed a lot of strength, he really wouldn't have been able to control this guy.
It took a lot of effort to pin him down and strangle his neck.
Once the cross is formed, the other party will have no capital to resist.
Lin Ran increased the strength in his hands, making him feel suffocated.
The man in black quickly patted Lin Ran's hand and whispered, "Be gentle, brother."
Lin Ran didn't want to take his life. He did relax the power in his hand, but he didn't let go and asked what he just said again.
Heiyi coughed a few times and managed to squeeze out a sentence: "I just saw that you were generous and wanted to borrow some money."
Lin Ran frowned. Sure enough, he had caught his eye while trading snuff bottles.
But he was still not satisfied with the man in black's answer.
He lowered his voice again and asked: "Tell me, how many accomplices do you have?"
The man in black hesitated, this was already his trump card.
He didn't want to say it at first, but Lin Ran increased his strength and became a little breathless, so he had to say: "There are only two of us."
Lin Ran saw that he was out of breath, so he probably wasn't lying.
If there were only two people, he would have dealt with one now, and the other could also be dealt with.
At this moment, another person appeared in the field of vision. Under the moonlight, he was holding a watermelon knife in his hand, looking extremely ferocious.
He pointed the knife at Lin Ran: "Let go of my brother!"
Lin Ran might let him go, pick him up with his backhand, stand between them, and say, "If you dare to come here, he will die."
Perhaps because of the mask, and seeing that the eldest brother was subdued, the people behind him obviously hesitated.
He didn't put down the knife in his hand, but his tone softened a lot.
"Let go of my brother, we can discuss it if we have anything to say."
"Discuss?" Lin Ran sneered. If he didn't have any hostages in his hands, he would definitely escape death if he fell into the hands of these two people.
"Yes, I can let you go."
"Do you think I will let you go?" Lin Ran pushed the guy in his hand with his knee.
He didn't bring anyone here today. If he really let these two people leave, if they were plotting against him secretly, he wouldn't be able to leave without delay.
But in this ghostly place, there is no phone, so even if you want to call the police, you can't.
As for the guys in East Stone Valley, they are all people who only care about themselves.
As long as they are not robbing in the streets, they will never mind their own business. After all, robbing on mountain roads is very common in this era.
The unspoken rule of Jianghu is that you cannot take action on your own territory, and you have no control over other places.
Lin Ran was actually very conflicted. He just threatened the other party, hoping that he would retreat in spite of the difficulties.
As for the hostages in hand, they must not be released.
Now we can only drag it until someone comes over.
Just when Lin Ran didn't know how to end it, he heard a cheerful female voice.
"Who am I talking about? Isn't this the hero just now?"
Lin Ran took a closer look and saw that it was a stall owner selling snuff bottles.
She was accompanied by a tall man.
Seeing someone coming, the man in black's accomplice waved the knife and said, "Don't mind your own business and get out of here!"
Another tall man frowned, he didn't want to get involved in this matter.
But the stall owner said: "Uncle Li, he was the one who reminded me to pay attention to safety just now. He is different from others."
The gangsters also recognized that this was the previous stall owner, who was originally one of their targets.
The tall man sighed and said to the man holding the knife: "Put down the knife, everything can be discussed."
"Fart!" After saying that, he waved the knife, trying to scare the two people.
Unexpectedly, this tall man was very fast and had learned martial arts. The moment he swung the sword, he took a step back, waited for him to hit the air, and then kicked him in the face.
Blood flowed out instantly, and the knife flew out.
The tall man stepped on the knife under his feet and kicked it to the other side.
It turned out that she had brought someone with her. No wonder she, a woman, dared to set up a stall at night.
Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that they were here to help him.
The men were subdued, and the man controlled by Lin Ran suddenly looked like a stunned eggplant and lowered his head.
