Chapter 307 - Codex

It was 11: 30 in the morning, and the sky was shrouded in darkness. Occasionally, the moonlight would sprinkle on the ground.

Zhang Yuan Yuan sat in the middle of Xiao Yi's BMW, holding onto a big leather bag. Inside the leather bag, there were several stacks of hundred-dollar bills that she had just taken from the bank.

The night was beautiful, but Zhang Yuan Yuan was not in the mood for the beautiful spring night. A layer of cold sweat appeared on the palm of her hand that was holding the leather bag. She still felt that it was inappropriate for him to act so rashly. A trace of worry appeared on her beautiful face.

"Xiao Yi, just the two of us?" Zhang Yuan Yuan took a deep breath in worriedly and asked. Her words revealed a sense of anxiety.

"Yes." Xiao Yi leisurely turned the wheel, and slowly replied: "Of course, could it be that there's someone else in the carriage?"

"But …" Zhang Yuan Yuan was still worried about her reckless actions. She looked anxiously at the deserted mountain road outside the window and said worriedly, "The criminals still don't know what's going on. If the two of us go through like this, won't we be like sheep entering a tiger's den?"

"Sheep into a tiger's den?" Xiao Yi laughed disdainfully: "This should be considered as a tiger getting its tiger's den, believe me."

Although Xiao Yi's words were full of confidence, Zhang Yuan Yuan and Xiao Yi were not familiar with each other. The closer they got to the Lion's Hill's White Horse Bridge, the more anxious they became.

"Xiao Yi, let's turn around and head back." Zhang Yuan Yuan clenched her teeth, and finally mustered her courage to speak to Xiao Yi.

"Go back? What a joke. " Xiao Yi shook his head, for a moment, he couldn't understand this beauty who had returned to him from the sea.

Zhang Yuan Yuan licked her dry lips, and pulled the belt that was used to store money into her arms. Then, she shivered and said, "In my opinion, the Lion's Hill's White Horse Bridge is too barren. This kind of hoodlum, since he dares to kidnap my father, he is, after all, an unforgivable and vicious person. If the two of us go to this remote place rashly, we might lose both our money and our money. "

"Could it be that I grew up eating steamed buns?" Xiao Yi didn't care at all about this kind of criminal. He opened his mouth and said disdainfully: "When the time comes, I will naturally settle this all."

"Xiao Yi, I'm not talking about you. You're so thin you look like you were malnourished when you were a kid. Looking at you, you should know that you are a sour scholar who writes with a brush. This time, it's not to use your writing skills. But, to rescue my father, that's no joke. Who knows, when the time comes, those kinds of villains will kill us all in the wilderness. "

However, listening to Yuan Yuan's nagging, Xiao Yi did not say a word. He turned on the radio in the car and listened to a midnight radio.

"Stop, stop."

"Don't be too confident, just look at you. You are a scholar who is powerless." Is this really the time for you to act so arrogantly? "

"Hmph, you are too young. All these years, thanks to the favor of my father, my self-confidence grew. Let me tell you again, if this goes on, people will die. "

… ….

In the car, Zhang Yuan Yuan talked nonstop. The closer the carriage got to the Lion's Hill's White Horse Bridge, the heavier Yuan Yuan's heart felt. Thinking about it, a moment of carelessness had actually caused him and Xiao Yi to barge into such a desolate mountain, he felt so regretful that her intestines turned green.

Thus, Zhang Yuan Yuan started to berate Xiao Yi nonstop. The more she spoke, the angrier she became. However, Xiao Yi who was driving the car did not care about anything at all. Moreover, he purposely sped up.

The Lion's Hill's White Horse Bridge was a bridge that had not been repaired for a long time. These years, it was already showing signs of collapsing. Ordinarily, pedestrians would not approach the large stone bridge. But, in the middle of the night, Xiao Yi carried Zhang Yuan Yuan onto the bridge.

Moonlight Bridge.

He stopped the car and looked at the time. It was exactly five minutes to twelve.

Following that, Xiao Yi opened the car door and walked Zhang Yuan Yuan out.

At that moment, Zhang Yuan Yuan's face turned pale white. Her entire body, which was standing near Xiao Yi, started to tremble. She looked like a frightened rabbit.

The sound of the phone being called late into the night made Zhang Yuan Yuan jump in fright. She quickly took out her phone and said, "I've already brought the money. Where's my father?"

"What's the rush, Miss Zhang?" The man opposite of him laughed sinisterly: "Tonight, Miss Zhang still brought a companion over!"

"My driver." According to the pre-arranged plan, Zhang Yuan Yuan immediately replied.

"Oh." The man in front of him didn't seem suspicious at all. He casually replied, "It's fine. Did you bring the money?"

"Yes, ten million is in my belt." Zhang Yuan Yuan was not stupid, he quickly raised the leather belt in his hand and answered.

Zhang Yuan Yuan knew that in that instant, the two of them had already entered each other's line of sight. However, the enemy was in the dark, and they were in the light.

"Very good. Then, let's start the trade. " The man on the other end of the line chuckled and quickly hung up the phone.

Xiao Yi stood by Zhang Yuan Yuan's side the entire time, and did not say a word. He listened to the man's voice that came from's hands-free, searching for a familiar voice. However, to Xiao Yi's disappointment, the man who spoke out was too unfamiliar.

At midnight, a full moon drilled into the dark yellow clouds.

In the dim moonlight, the mountain looked like a sleeping lion. On the ancient white horse bridge, the ground was dyed white with the moonlight.

"Very good, very good." A group of masked men slowly walked over from the other side of the bridge. A man in the middle clapped his hands and said happily.

Right in the middle of this group of people, was Old Secretary Zhang Weimin, whose face was filled with fatigue.

When Zhang Yuan Yuan saw the exhausted look on Zhang Weimin's face, she immediately shouted, "Dad!"

"Don't worry, there's a way to rob others as well." Old Secretary is doing fine, we'll pay you the money, and we'll pay you the price. " The masked man in the middle only revealed a pair of black eyes.

This man looked very friendly, but all the men around him were holding mountain knife in their hands. At this moment, the clear moonlight caused the air on the bridge to become slightly colder.

Zhang Yuan Yuan trembled, and immediately shrunk in fear. Her face turned red all of a sudden.

"Sure, I'll exchange it for money." Xiao Yi snatched the bag of money from Zhang Yuan Yuan and said to the masked men.

"Satisfying." The masked man in the middle immediately grabbed onto Old Secretary Zhang Weimin's throat and walked towards Xiao Yi. The other masked men by his side carried their mountain knife and followed him.

Looking at the imposing manner of this group of people, it could be said that they had come with ill intentions.

Zhang Yuan Yuan was immediately frightened to the point that she staggered a few steps back. Then, he looked up at Xiao Yi's smiling face. She couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.

"Could it be that this Xiao Yi deliberately brought me here for this group of people to destroy?" Zhang Yuan Yuan who had his mind filled with all sorts of thoughts, immediately said in his mind: "I just humiliated him for a few sentences, and created a bit of hatred, is there really a need for that?"

Looking at Xiao Yi's brilliant smile, this piece of Yuan Yuan thought that Xiao Yi did not have any good intentions. It was as if all of this was a big scheme that Xiao Yi had meticulously planned out. The goal was to find a place to trample on himself in the wilderness.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Tears streamed down Yuan Yuan's face.

However, with the bag of money in hand, Xiao Yi walked towards the criminals.

He was as brave and magnificent as a warrior who had come to his death. On his face, there was still a trace of a smile.

The moon would come out of the clouds, and a wisp of moonlight would lengthen his shadow. From the looks of it, it seemed even more extraordinary.

After walking forward ten steps, Xiao Yi's Nine Dragons True Qi began to circulate within his body. As he took fifteen steps forward, Xiao Yi's Nine Dragons True Qi had already started circulating in a great cycle. When he took twenty steps forward, the front of Xiao Yi's clothes fluttered without any wind, and his entire person was filled with high spirits.

"Your money."

Xiao Yi walked in front of the masked assassin and casually handed over the leather bag containing the ten million yuan to him. In fact, Xiao Yi had a smile on his face.

The current Xiao Yi was like a cashier finding change for a customer in a supermarket. With a face full of indifference, he passed over a handful of change and said, "Here's your money."

However, within that huge belt in Xiao Yi's hands, there was an entire ten million in cash. Moreover, it was a windless night. It was an occasion to deal with the vicious bandits face to face.

But, on Xiao Yi's face, how could one see a trace of nervousness?

The masked man at the other side received the large bag of money from Xiao Yi. He unzipped it and scanned it. Then, he nodded his head in satisfaction, looked at Xiao Yi and said. Very honest, then, this Old Secretary is yours. "

Following which, the leader of the gang quickly let go of Old Secretary Zhang Weimin's hand. Then, very faithfully, he pushed Zhang Weimin in front of Xiao Yi.

Everything was progressing smoothly. The exchange of money on one hand, the delivery of goods on the other. It was as though this was the most fair deal in the world.

Xiao Yi was slightly surprised, he did not expect that these criminals would follow the rules. Immediately, without hesitating, he extended his hand and grabbed the body of Old Secretary that was pushed towards him.

Suddenly, the wind began to blow on the White Horse Bridge. All the branches on the entire Lion's Hill Mountain swayed in the wind.

At this moment, this Lion's Hill looked like a lion that had awoken from its slumber.
