Chapter 209

Hou Biao jumped into the river and swam towards Jiang Deguan. But when he swam to the middle of the river, Jiang De Guan disappeared.

He plunged into the water, touched the bottom of the river for a long time, floated up to take a breath, and then went down to touch it. In this way, he rose and fell many times. He touched the bottom of the river and couldn't find Jiang Deguan.

He went ashore dejectedly, sat wet on the stone of the bank and said nothing.

Aoki came over and said, "let's go back to Wuzhong."

"What are you going to do? Be your bodyguard?" Hou Biao laughed mockingly. What else can he do in his life besides being a bodyguard for the rich master?

Aoki said, "I'm not a rich master."

Hou Biao said, "what are you going to do?"

Aoki said, "go back and change a way to live."

Hou Biao said, "let me think."

Aoki said, "well, come to me whenever you want."

Aoki left. Hou Biao thought for a long time by the river. Until dawn, he sighed at the calm river, stood up helplessly and said, "Lord Jiang, I tried my best."

Hou Biao stepped onto the stone bridge and pushed down the tricycle. The car stood in the way of the bridge. He wanted to push it into the nearby mulberry field.

Just as he pushed the tricycle out of the car, he suddenly heard a gunshot.

The gunshot seemed to come from far away, but it wanted to come from near. It echoed in his ears.

He was startled by the gunshot, suddenly thought of something, and then there was a whirl of heaven and earth.

Hou Biao stabilized his figure and looked around. He saw that there were many shadows in the dark, all cars stacked together, like crawling with dead steel bodies.

Isn't this the parking lot where he hid his car for three wheels?

Hou Biao looked at the three wheels pushed in his hand and suddenly realized that everything he had just experienced was just a dream. He had been hypnotized since he looked for the three wheels in the parking lot. At the moment, he had just found three wheels, and Jiang Deguan should still be in the van when he came.

There was silence in the parking lot after the gunfire echoed.

Hou Biao scolded "shit!" he pushed down the three wheels and ran towards the van.

Jiang Deguan was lying in the van with a gun in his hand, and the bullet penetrated his temple. From the scene, he committed suicide with a pistol.

Hou Biao looked around blankly and saw Qingmu standing behind him, his hand in his trouser pocket, and his body leaning lazily on a scrapped old car.

"Come back to Wuzhong with me," Aoki said.

Hou Biao said, "I could have saved him. You hypnotized me."

Aoki said, "you just walked a little longer to save him. As a result, you have seen it in your dream. Instead of letting him float in the river and die in front of his hometown parents, you might as well die here. Why are you in vain?"

Hou Biao slumped to the ground.

He raised his gun and aimed it at his temple.

Aoki said, "you said yourself that you have tried your best. You don't owe him anymore. Why?"

Hou Biao said, "I have no love in life. What am I doing alive? Go back to be a mercenary or continue to be a bodyguard for the old men?"

Aoki said, "maybe there are some more meaningful things to do, such as..."

"Like what?"

"Such as saving all mankind."

"Save all mankind?" Hou Biao laughed and thought it was good to hear such a joke at this time.

Aoki said, "of course you can't save mankind, but some people can."

Hou Biao raised his head: "so? What do you want to say?"

"I mean, you can use your skills to protect people who need protection more."

"President of the United States?" Hou Biao suddenly felt that the joke was not funny. "Is there any difference between being a dog for the rich and being a dog for the officials?"

Aoki said, "it seems that although Jiang Deguan saved your life, he didn't treat you well. Otherwise, why do you think that being a bodyguard is a dog?"

Hou Biao stopped talking, carefully weighed Aoki's words in his heart, and finally shook his head and said, "no, Lord Jiang didn't treat me as a dog. I thought too much myself."

Aoki said, "your subconscious mind won't lie."

Hou Biao was silent for a long time and asked, "who do you want me to protect?"

Aoki said: "scientists who can save mankind and good people who may be hurt. Protect them, you can also become a respected person, not just make people think you are a bad bastard."

Hou Biao said, "let me think."

"Well, take your time and come to me whenever you want." Aoki said.

Hou Biao got up tired and walked numbly in the steel world piled up by waste cars. After taking a few steps, he remembered that Jiang Deguan's body was still in the car. It was inappropriate to expose it here after all.

He wanted to go back and drag the body out to find a place to bury it, but this time, he suddenly found that the scenery had changed, where there were any parking lots, where there were any scrapped cars, and there were no bodies.

There are trees everywhere. The wind blows from the woods with the cry of night owls. It sounds very scary.

Hou Biao saw the shadow of the hazy village and sporadic lights in the distance, and suddenly remembered that this was the mountain they entered after abandoning their car and walking. He's going to get food now, and then he got a van. But those were obviously not real, and time could not be reversed. It was a dream he had after being hypnotized.

At the moment, Jiang Deguan should be hiding in the stone crack on the mountain waiting for him.

Hou Biao thought that if he was hypnotized at this time, it would not be true that people who met Huang Ziqiang chased into the mountain and Jiang Deguan was injured.

Now think about it, Huang Ziqiang can't catch up with his car after he abandons it. If it's Li Wei, he still believes that the other party has such ability.

He hurried back and saw Jiang Deguan sitting there staring up at the sky. There was no cloud in the night, and the low starry sky seemed to fall.

"Lord Chiang!" he cried.

Jiang Deguan slowly turned his face, looked at him and said, "monkey, you try your best. Don't worry about me anymore. Go."

Hou Biao began to doubt whether he was dreaming now. He didn't answer, but looked around vigilantly.

Jiang Deguan said: "When you walked away just now, I was looking back and reflecting on my life. The quiet wild forest is very suitable for thinking. Now I have figured out that I have lived my life. Although I don't live the kind I want, I can't enjoy prosperity and honor in my life. What else can I complain about? It's meaningless to live any longer. It's better to die early and surpass life , you can be a different person in your next life. "

Hou Biao felt more and more that he was still dreaming. What Jiang Deguan said was not like his usual behavior.

"Do you know my ideal when I was a child?" Jiang Deguan continued, "when I was a child, I wanted to be a scientist. My favorite cartoon at that time was robot cat Oh, now it's called Duola Aimeng, but we all called him Dingdang at that time. I like his magical pocket, which is full of future vision. I want to be a scientist, which can change the world. I even often fantasize that if one day aliens invade the earth, I will become the hero to save mankind! "

Hou Biao was suddenly stunned: "save mankind?"

Jiang De Guan smiled and nodded, "yes, which boy hasn't had such a dream!"
