Chapter 986 Li Gui's Panic
Xiaotian hid in the shadows, observing the surrounding movements and making marks.
Before long, he saw a group of people slowly walking towards him, following closely behind several oxcarts.
He saw that the oxcarts were piled high with all sorts of supplies.
Xiao Tian frowned and muttered to himself, "Xiao Yun just said that her sheep caused those people to open fire. Could Xiao Yun be hiding in one of the cars?"
Despite his deep concern, Oda was powerless to do anything about it.
Because he has no way to contact Jiang Jiyun now, unless Xiaoyun takes the initiative to pass on a message to him, or she leaves the space, he can only contact her by phone.
Helpless, Xiaotian could only watch as the vehicles drove through the large iron gate of the house.
He grew increasingly uneasy, worried that Jiang Jiyun might encounter danger if she ventured in alone.
Those people drove the vehicle to the warehouse entrance and began unloading the goods.
As they unloaded the last truck, two burly men carried a heavy sack. One of them couldn't help but complain, "Brother Li, what the hell is in this sack? Damn, how can it be so heavy?"
Li Gui gritted his teeth, struggled to lift the sack, and carried it into the warehouse before letting out a sigh of relief and saying, "I think this sack is mostly sweet potatoes or something like that. Let's hurry up and leave, Jin Laosan. This is not a place we can stay for long."
When Li Gui came over last time, he vaguely heard someone screaming. If it weren't for the fact that he could earn a lot of money delivering things, he wouldn't have risked his life to come here.
Li Gui served as a puppet soldier for a few days, but his unit was disbanded after the Japanese troops were wiped out.
That's why I became unemployed and it's hard to find a job.
When his former companions approached him, he thought it was just a small matter of helping to buy vegetables and meat, and it wasn't dangerous, so he agreed.
After visiting a few times, he sensed something was off about the place, especially since the men escorting the goods were carrying guns. A voice inside him told him that the people here were not right, and that he shouldn't mess with them.
Don't be fooled by the fact that there aren't many people in this place; there are actually quite a few lurking in the shadows. Every time they come in or out, he can feel someone watching him.
Jin Laosan said with a relaxed expression, "Brother Li, don't worry. It's not like this is our first time here. What big deal could it be?"
However, Li Gui became increasingly panicked. He anxiously said to Jin Laosan and the others, "Brothers, listen to me this time, let's get out of here quickly!"
Jin Laosan and the others noticed the obvious worry on Li Gui's face, and their smiles vanished instantly.
Looking back, the reason they were able to escape death was entirely because they listened to Li Gui's advice.
At that time, the Japanese forced them to go to the battlefield as cannon fodder, and Li Gui also decisively led his brothers to escape from the battlefield.
Although desertion is somewhat dishonorable, they were, after all, facing their own compatriots, and they did not fire a single shot at them before running away from the battlefield.
Not only that, but others, seeing them flee, followed suit and fled the battlefield with them.
This is why the Japanese attack on Luofang Town ultimately ended in failure.
The key to this was that after Li Gui led them to escape, he circled around to the rear of the Japanese troops and launched a surprise attack.
This operation not only disrupted the Japanese plan, but also allowed these "lackeys" to survive even after the Japanese were defeated.
Jin Laosan picked up the whip and drove the oxcart away, saying, "Let's go, listen to Brother Li. In this world, there is only hope if we live."
The people behind them immediately and quickly followed suit and walked out.
Jiang Jiyun changed her clothes and appeared in the warehouse. After watching the people leave through the crack in the door, she quickly came out.
"Rumble..."
Thunder started to rumble. Jiang Jiyun looked up at the dark sky and quietly began to explore the house. When there were people around, she would hide in her spatial dimension.
Jiang Jiyun finally reached the vicinity of those wooden stakes. She saw that there were still people tied to them, and several shirtless men were whipping them again and again.
She saw clearly that there were not only men but also women tied to the wooden stake.
As Jiang Jiyun listened to the sound of the whip cracking, the murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger.
"Who's there? What are you doing hiding there?" A man shouted loudly, looking in the direction where Jiang Jiyun was hiding.
Jiang Jiyun instantly returned to her spatial dimension, and someone came to check on her as soon as she left.
"Yamada-kun, you're too nervous. There's no one here. How could anyone possibly get in?"
Jiang Jiyun frowned as he heard the Japanese soldiers speaking.
She quickly picked up a pen and wrote something in her notebook. Then, she gave the note to her brother and the others.
Jiang Jiyun left the space again, silently passing through the corridor and avoiding the Japanese soldiers' sight.
Jiang Jiyun frowned as he looked at the howling wind and pouring rain outside.
Such severe weather made her operations very difficult; killing these people without attracting the attention of the Japanese was quite a challenge.
Jiang Jiyun took a deep breath and then began to grope her way towards the house next door, avoiding being seen or heard.
When she reached the vicinity of the house, she heard sounds coming from inside.
She immediately became alert, quietly peering out the window and listening intently.
"Will you talk or not!" a stern voice demanded.
"If you confess honestly, you can go back to your family alive," another voice seemed to be persuading.
"Don't you think about your parents and family? If you don't speak up, you might never see your loved ones again before you die." It was that threatening voice again.
"If you tell us who those people are, you can leave here alive," the persuasive voice rang out again.
……
Jiang Jiyun heard these people singing in a charade, then heard another woman cursing, followed by a heart-wrenching scream.
These Japanese soldiers are clearly investigating someone or some organization. The fact that they are so fiercely pressuring the people inside the house means that something important must be going on.
Jiang Jiyun couldn't help but wonder, who exactly were those people? And why had they attracted the attention of the Japanese?
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
A sudden burst of gunfire came from afar, and a thought immediately flashed through Jiang Jiyun's mind: Brother Tian may have been exposed!
Jiang Jiyun frowned, pondering various possibilities.
She sensed something was wrong; Oda had always been very cautious, and it was unlikely he would be exposed so quickly.
So, what exactly caused this sudden gunshot?
She was extremely anxious and quickly took out her phone from her pocket and dialed Xiaotian's number.
The moment the call connected, she asked anxiously, "Xiaotian, how did you get exposed so quickly?"
