Chapter 763 Two Roads

Those two months in the ship's warehouse can be said to be the worst three months that Chu Lu has ever lived since he can remember. It can't help but be because it was dark and there was endless waiting, expectation, and seemingly endless Endless loneliness, the kind of loneliness that gnawed at his confidence and his reason, there was hope, if not for the belief that he had to find.

Maybe like those people, he started to become numb and ignorant, and now he was afraid that he was no longer a human being, but a breathing corpse.

The third brother took a branch in his hand and broke it, one piece after another.

"I found out," the third brother suddenly raised his face and spoke to Chu Lu. As for how he found out and what method he used, Chu Lu would not ask. After all, Tang San was Tang San. If he didn't have a star, With two methods, how could he still be alive now? He must have many more enemies than friends, and this person may not have any friends at all.

Where were they, Chu Lu opened his eyes, and his dark eyes looked calmer, more windless and rainless, and also waveless and emotionless. Only the sea breeze blew the hair on his forehead from time to time, strand by strand. It's screwed together.

The third brother broke off a branch from the tree again, and the voice continued, "There are two places." He broke off another piece and paused, "One is a small island that is a full month away from here. This is a place rich in gold deposits. There are not too many people on the island, and this small island is in an international, government-controlled area. There is a river there with a lot of gold sand, which is a famous local gold rush river. , the conditions are very miserable, there will be ships transporting some death row prisoners there from time to time, and there are also people who are trafficked there from unknown places to pan for gold there."

"There is another one, which is about two months' journey to the north. There is a slave trading market. Don't think that these are peaceful times. There are still some undeveloped places, and there are local indigenous people there."

"These people still maintain the old way of life. These slaves will be exchanged for various things. Men will do some dangerous things, and women, the light in his eyes will dim. Needless to say, I , you also know."

"Whichever of these two places it is, it's not good news for us."

"Is there anything else?" Chu Lu couldn't accept it. Yes, no matter which outcome it was, they couldn't accept it or bear it, because no matter which one it was, it might be left to them after they passed. There's not even a human there, and even if one is found, they're probably just bones. And he would rather they were in the north. Maybe their bodies would be destroyed, but it would be easier to survive. As long as he finds her, no matter what she becomes, he will take her home and guard her for the rest of his life. .

He wanted a living Xia Ruoxin more than death.

"No more." The third brother broke off a branch again and bit it in his mouth. The bitter taste was instantly in his mouth. I only knew that almost half a year ago, there was a ship with Two oriental women.

"Is there something wrong with the time?" Chu Lu still wanted to find some luck.

"You know it's impossible," the third brother bit hard at the dead branch in his mouth, "In the past six months, they haven't seen many oriental faces, most of them are white and black, so I can be sure, There are only two directions.”

"Chu Lu, what are your plans?"

The third brother asked Chu Lu. In fact, he also wanted to hear Chu Lu's thoughts. In fact, he and Chu Lu had the same idea. After knowing some things, to be honest, he didn't really believe it either. This kind of news is wrong, there should be others, but in the end, all the facts prove that his idea is not wrong, they are among this wave of people, and no matter where they end up, they will escape death.

Chu Lu stood up, the sea breeze blew from his sleeves, and in the distance was the sea level stretching for thousands of miles, and their time was really running out, after all, nearly half a year had passed.

"Third brother, let's split up." He sat down again, thinking about this possibility. Perhaps this was the only way he could think of.

There is a gap of nearly four months between the two places. If they go there at the same time, it will be fine if they choose the right one. If they choose the wrong one, then they may collect the bodies of the two women and take their ashes back.

"That's it," in fact, this is what the third brother thought, but he turned his face and asked Chu Lu, "Are you okay, businessman?"

"What do you think?" Chu Lu also followed the example of his third brother and picked up a branch from the ground. With a click, the branch was split in two from the middle. "I won't come here without complete preparations."

"Full preparations?" The third brother hugged his chest, "Tell me, what are your preparations?"

He himself has come and gone through wind and rain, and has never seen anything. He has gained his empire with scars all over his body. He has only one or two human lives on his hands, but this Chu Lu, he What's the matter, a businessman, although he can't carry it with his shoulders or lift it with his hands, he doesn't want others to save him, and he has to pay for it first.

"Well," Chu Lu raised his eyes slightly, "I have money, a lot of money."

"I know," the third brother laughed, "Chu Lu's company was not opened in vain. Although I don't know how much your assets are, I have heard about your secret gold mine."

In this regard, Chu Lu was noncommittal. Regarding the gold mine, he had never taken a positive stance on whether other people's rumors were right or wrong, real or imaginary. In fact, regardless of whether there was a gold mine or not, as far as Chu Lu was concerned, he In a few years, what he earned was not just a small sum of money.

"What about down there?"

The third brother is waiting for Chu's next move. He will not believe that having money can do everything.

But for Chu Lu, that was the case. Although he did not have the skills of his third brother in some aspects, he bought two good things. He put his hand on his neck, and then pulled out a thin necklace, which looked inconspicuous. There was also a gray ball pendant hanging on it. Absolutely no one would regard this as valuable. Even if you see something like this, you may not even want to take another look at it.

His fingers gently touched the pendant on the necklace around his neck, then he took out another one from his pocket and threw it towards the third brother. The third brother took it in his hand, and then opened his palm. In his heart, there was also this featureless thing. No one would pick it up if it was thrown on the street.
