Chapter 297 Hiding
Chapter 297 Hiding
This base was originally a depression in the mountain, less than two meters high and covering an area of only ten square meters. Once when it rained, she, Grandpa Mo and Grandpa took shelter here. Grandpa liked this place very much. Later, Grandpa Mo and Grandpa used silicone as the main material to build a wall and a door, and it turned into a small house. They also covered the floor with a thick layer of coke to prevent moisture. They added some things to the house, including a simple bed, and Grandpa Mo set up a formation outside to prevent outsiders from coming in.
There are five secret bases in total. Except for the cave, this one is the most complete and it is also Grandpa’s favorite place. Originally, Orange was planning to come here to take a look, but by accident, the boy was brought in.
But there was no one else here except the unconscious boy, and Orange felt as if a pair of eyes were staring straight at her. How could she not be afraid?
Orange thought that someone had discovered this place. If that was the case, this place would not be safe. Orange bravely opened the door a crack, but after looking around, she didn't find any living creatures. She felt a little relieved. Then Orange realized that her clothes were all wet. She closed the door, feeling weak all over, and sat down on the small wooden stool next to her.
But after she sat down, she felt that the eyes were closer to her. Juzi felt her hair stand on end and a chill ran down her spine. Just as she was fainting from fear, a voice came over: "Are you scared to death?"
Orange: “Ah…”
A hand quickly covered her mouth: "Don't scream."
When Orange saw a face appear in front of her, she forgot to be afraid and reflexively reached out to pat the person's face.
The man cursed in a low voice: "You damn woman."
Juzi looked at the person who appeared in front of her, and found that it was the unconscious boy. She was so angry that she was about to scold him, but she heard footsteps coming from the distance. Juzi gritted her teeth and whispered, "Hurry up and lie down and pretend to be dead. If you implicate me, I will strangle you to death."
The boy chuckled, but lay down obediently without saying anything else.
Soon the footsteps went back and forth for a long time, and gradually disappeared in the evening.
Orange was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back. Then she saw the boy sleeping soundly. Orange was so angry! In order to save him, she was scared to death. It took her a long time to recover. Her whole body felt like it was falling apart, but the boy seemed fine and slept like a dead pig.
She wasn't afraid of ghosts, but she was afraid of death! Judging from the boy's appearance, they probably wanted his confession so they didn't kill him. If those people knew that she saved him, they would skin her alive. Orange was terrified and secretly regretted that she shouldn't have been nosy.
Juzi woke the boy up and asked him to follow her, thinking of going down the mountain to hide at her grandmother's house for a night.
But Juzi thought things were too simple. How could those people give up without finding the person? Juzi saw shadowy figures at the foot of the mountain from afar. Fortunately, her eyesight was good, and she quickly grabbed the boy and hid behind a big tree.
But the people below were staring at the mountain, and the two of them were walking along the mountain road. Someone had already spotted them, but they couldn't see their faces clearly because it was too far away. Moreover, they were chasing one person, and now that two people appeared, they didn't expect that one of them was the person they were chasing.
But Orange has lived here for seventeen years, and normally there shouldn't be anyone at the foot of the mountain at this time. Orange immediately became alert and pulled the boy back.
The people at the foot of the mountain saw the two men running back into the mountain, and one of them shouted, "Chase them."
