"This is...a ground thorn?!" Gu Nanyin squatted down, looking at the object in front of her in surprise.

Huo Beixiao sneered: "Yes, this thing is specially used to puncture tires. It seems that we have encountered a problem."

Gu Nanyin stood up and looked around: "Then what should we do? Shall we call for help?"

"If I'm not wrong, the phone is currently in a state of no signal..." At this point, Huo Beixiao suddenly signaled Gu Nanyin to turn off the light on the phone.Then he took the opponent's hand, ran a few steps and hid behind a sand dune.

"Bei Xiao, what happened?"

Huo Beixiao covered Gu Nanyin's mouth with his hand, then pointed in the direction of the car.

In the dim night, Gu Nanyin saw two black figures approaching their car quietly.When they came to the car and found no one in the car or around, one of them asked very strangely: "Where are they?"

Another replied: "It must be nearby, not far away."

"Damn it! You dare to run around in the desert, it's just too much!"

"I suspect that they may know our existence. I heard from the employer that these two people are very smart, and ordinary people really can't deal with them."

"Bah! I don't believe how powerful they can be! When I see them, I don't care about 21 or [-] and kill them! No matter how smart they are, they are useless!"

"Stop talking nonsense, find it quickly!"

The two of them were talking, and they started searching for Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin around the parking lot as a radius.

From the very beginning, Huo Beixiao held Gu Nanyin's hand.He felt that the other party's hands were shaking slightly when he heard the gangster's conversation.Huo Beixiao touched the back of Gu Nanyin's hand, trying to calm him down and make him brave.

Gradually, the two gangsters began to approach the dune where Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin were hiding.The atmosphere in the night was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

"Don't be afraid! It's me!" Just when Huo Beixiao and the others were about to be discovered, a reassuring whisper came from nowhere.The two turned around abruptly, only to find that Uncle Luo had miraculously appeared in front of them.

"Uncle Luo?!" Gu Nanyin exclaimed in a very low voice.

Uncle Luo made a silent gesture, then waved his hand to call Gu Nanyin and Huo Beixiao to follow him closely.He is familiar with every texture in the desert, and under the leadership of Uncle Luo, Gu Nanyin and the others soon came to a relatively safe place.

Lying on the sand dune, the three of them faintly heard the two gangsters talking in the distance.

"I thought I heard footsteps just now!"

"I heard that too, but what about them? They should be nearby, right?"

"Hey! Did you hear any strange noises?"

"Bad... Broken! It looks like a pack of wolves! Let's get out of here quickly!"

"But what if we leave the mission now?"

"Don't worry about the mission! It's important to save your life! Run!"

The two of them talked, as if they hurried away to the distance.In the silence of the night, there was no longer a sense of tension of danger and persecution.

Seeing that the situation had turned from danger to safety, Uncle Luo breathed a sigh of relief.He said to Gu Nanyin and Huo Beixiao in a normal voice: "Boss Huo, Mrs. Huo, don't worry, they have gone far."

Although Uncle Luo's words reassured Gu Nanyin a lot, she was still a little trembling: "Uncle Luo, just now they said that a pack of wolves is coming, is... is it true?"

Uncle Luo nodded: "It's true. But the wolves are far away from us, and they're not moving in our direction, so you don't have to worry about danger."

"Oh, that's good..." Gu Nanyin said, the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

At this time, Huo Beixiao asked Uncle Luo calmly, "Why did you appear here?"

Uncle Luo responded: "This matter is a bit complicated. Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo, you can go to my house to stay temporarily tonight. I will explain the specific situation to you when I get there. "

"But our car is here."

Uncle Luo waved his hand at Gu Nanyin: "Don't worry, I'll find someone to tow the car to the city for repairs. After it's repaired, let them drive to my house. I promise you won't delay your trip tomorrow."

Huo Beixiao carefully analyzed the current situation, and felt that it would be too dangerous to insist on returning to City A overnight, and leaving after dawn was undoubtedly the safest choice.Therefore, he decided to follow Uncle Luo's advice and follow Uncle Luo back to his home with Gu Nanyin.

After walking for a long time, the three finally came to the edge of the desert.There is a farmyard here, which is where Uncle Luo's family lives.

After entering the house, Uncle Luo arranged food and drink for the guests.His wife took a rest early due to physical reasons, so he did not show up.Gu Nanyin and the others couldn't bear to disturb her, so they didn't ask Uncle Luo to wake up his wife.

After eating a little something, Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin sat on the stools and began to listen to Uncle Luo talk about today's events.

"In fact, during the day, those two people passed by my house several times. At that time, I thought they were not kind, so when they entered the desert at dusk, I followed them quietly."

Huo Beixiao interrupted and asked, "That is to say, when they arranged the ground thorns, you saw them all?"

Uncle Luo nodded: "Yes. I didn't know what they were doing there because they were far away. I didn't realize it until your car stopped there with a flat tire."

Gu Nanyin and the others probably knew about the future situation, and they felt that if they hadn't met Uncle Luo, the ending of tonight would be really unpredictable.

Facing Gu Nanyin's thanks, Uncle Luo bowed his head and waved his hands, looking very ashamed: "Mrs. Huo, please don't thank me! I...I owe you too much..."

Gu Nanyin thought that Uncle Luo was thanking him for bringing money to his wife, but the other party's words actually had other meanings.

Originally, Uncle Luo was going to say that, but when he saw Huo Beixiao secretly waving his hand at him, he immediately understood what he should do.

"Mr. Huo, you are trying to save face for me, an old man! The more you and your wife treat me so well, the more I feel that there is no place for my old face. Alas! I only hate that I was blinded by lard back then , To actually do such an outrageous thing! I...I really can't forgive myself!"

The more Uncle Luo thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. The old man finally started crying like a child.It was Gu Nanyin's indiscretions that managed to persuade Uncle Luo to stop crying.

Late at night, Gu Nanyin and Huo Beixiao checked into the guest room at Uncle Luo's house.Huo Beixiao called and told Lu Qiran the truth, and asked him to keep it a secret from other people, saying that he would not be able to go back until a little later.

"Mr. Huo, do you want me to pick you up?"

"Of course not, you just pretend nothing happened. I'm safe now, so don't worry."

Lu Qiran reported that Huo's mother's condition had stabilized, and Huo Beixiao felt relieved.
