"What's going on? Is there a power cut? "

Zhou Lichang's family was not used to the darkness that suddenly engulfed them.

Xu Yongwei anxiously hugged her children, and shouted in the darkness: "Quickly go to that flashlight, Xin Xin is the one who is afraid of the dark."

"Got it, didn't I go look for him?" Zhou Lichang said impatiently.

However, it was not easy to walk in this pitch black darkness. With a "clang" sound, Zhou Lichang cried out, and bumped into the corner of the table.

Right at that moment, a soft "rustling" sound of keys could be heard coming from the door, followed by a few beams of white light shooting in. It was the powerful flashlight.

Xu Yongwei was blinded by the light as she scolded: "Zhou Lichang, why are you looking for so many flashlights?"

But just as she said that, she realised that there were at least 7 to 8 light beams flickering. How was it possible for Zhou Lichang to obtain so many light beams by himself.

Just then, she remembered that someone had entered the house, and anxiously shouted: Zhou Lichang, there's a thief!

What answered her was only Zhou Lichang's miserable scream. Under the beams of light, Xu Yongwei vaguely saw the shadows of a few people approaching, and just as she was about to bring her two children and run away, she suddenly felt her shoulders tighten, and that she had been caught.

Zhou Zhihao and Zhou Xinxin, the two little kids, had never encountered such a sudden situation before. They opened their mouths wanting to cry out loud, but then saw two people raise their hands and use a hand blade to hit the nape of Zhou Zhihao and Zhou Xinxin's necks, immediately knocking them out.

Xu Yongwei immediately struggled: "Don't touch my child …" Before she could finish, there was a sudden pain on the back of her neck. Then, she felt as if all the strength in her body was sucked out in an instant. Her body went limp and she fainted as well.

In the darkness of the night, Zhou Lichang's entire family was quickly carried to a van. The group of people even closed the Zhou Mansion's villa, and only then drove away without showing any signs of abnormality.

When Zhou Lichang woke up, the first thing he felt was that the muscles on his neck and shoulder were extremely sore, as if they were sleeping with their necks crooked.

In front of him was a patch of yellow, swaying about. It was the light bulb hanging from the ceiling that was swinging back and forth.

It took him a few seconds to realize that he was sitting on a wooden chair, his hands tied behind his back, his feet tied to the legs of the chair, unable to move.

"Daddy! "Father!"

A tearful voice called out, causing Zhou Lichang's mind to tremble. Looking towards the direction of the cry, he saw that his son and daughter were also tied to the wooden chair that was right in front of him.

Xu Yongwei, on the other hand, was tied to the wall to her left with her head lowered and not moving at all.

"Zhihao, Xin Xin, are you alright? Are you hurt?" Zhou Lichang asked anxiously.

Zhou Zhihao shook his head, while Zhou Xinxin was in tears: "Dad, what's going on? "Xin Xin is so scared. Xin Xin wants to go home, wuu …"

"Xin Xin, don't cry. Daddy is here. Be good. Xin Xin, don't cry." Zhou Lichang comforted his daughter as he looked around.

He found that it was a room of more than 20 square meters. It was very old, with large areas of the walls peeling off, revealing the bare brick surface. Besides the wooden chairs used to tie them up, there was nothing else in the room.

On the right side of the wall, there was a window that was welded to death by an anti-theft net. Through the hazy glass, one could vaguely see the shadows of the trees outside and infer that this was a remote wilderness.

Thinking back to the scene before, Zhou Lichang surmised that his entire family was kidnapped.

He was immediately scared, because if this was a normal kidnapping, then at least one of the adults would have to be responsible for paying the ransom. Now that they had captured his entire family, it was not just a kidnapping, but a revenge.

Zhou Lichang knew that he had offended a lot of people, especially those who were competing with him for the government works.

As he was guessing in his heart, the rusty metal door of the room was roughly pushed open.

Afterwards, they saw a few sturdy men wearing camouflage clothes and hoods walk in, causing Zhou Xin Xin to be so scared that she didn't dare to make a sound.

Zhou Lichang immediately said to the few big sized men: "Wait … Brothers, I wonder how did I offend you all, causing you all to go all out like this?

"You can say whatever you want. This little brother will definitely apologize many times more, as long as big brothers can let this little brother go."

The leader of the guards took out a black gun from his robes, causing Zhou Lichang, who was sitting on the chair, to be shocked.

"Boss Zhou, I'm really sorry. I caught you guys at home.

However, there's nothing we can do about it. We brothers only get what we want. Don't blame us brothers. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending someone. "

The man's voice was hoarse, and he wore a hood over his face, so his voice was muffled. He was playing around with the black gun in his hand. Clearly, he was an experienced gun player.

He suddenly stopped, and used the gun to hit Zhou Lichang twice in the face.

The cold feeling from the barrel of the gun spread across Zhou Lichang's face, causing him to tremble with fear.

"This big brother, I don't know which big boss I offended, but please help me so that this noble one can let go of my family. This little brother is extremely grateful."

Zhou Lichang said with a sullen face.

The man chuckled and said, "Actually, no matter if it's us brothers, or whoever invited our boss, it's all just for money. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so troublesome to bring your family here.

"Yes, yes." Under the cold gaze of the big sized man, Zhou Lichang could not help but nod his head.

At the same time, another man walked over to Xu Yongwei who was still unconscious, raised his hand and slapped her a few times. The "Pa Pa Pa" sound was extremely loud in the room, and Xu Yongwei also woke up from her slapping.

Just like what Zhou Lichang did, Xu Yongwei also spent a lot of effort to figure out the situation of him being kidnapped, and upon seeing that his two children were firmly tied up, Xu Yongwei also saw a few big men whose faces could not be seen standing in the room.

And she cried out, "What do you want? Why are you arresting us, is there really no law and order? Aren't you guys afraid of the police?! "

The man who was originally in front of Zhou Lichang walked over to Xu Yongwei and slapped her twice. He laughed coldly: "If I was afraid of the police, I wouldn't be doing this.

Saying that, he spat on Xu Yongwei's face, causing him to be stunned for a few seconds. Finally, he regained his senses and shouted: "You bastards!

Do you know who we are!

We are friends of Mayor Situ, Situ Li, and our nephew, Zhou Hao, has spoken on both sides of the Xiang City, if you know what's good for you, you can let us go! "

"Hahahaha!" The big sized man laughed out loud. "I'm so scared, hahahaha …" That's right, Zhou Hao is truly an outstanding person. Originally, the boss behind us didn't dare to touch you guys either, just because of the underworld Wen Xiangdong and the righteous Situ Li didn't dare to offend Zhou Hao.

But you guys don't know, Zhou Hao just spread the word on both sides that you no longer have any relationship with him, and no matter what happened to you two, he would not stand up for you, that's why our boss dared to touch you. "

Hearing this, Zhou Lichang and Xu Yongwei's face changed, they did not expect that Zhou Hao would really cut all ties with them.

"This big brother, how much money does your boss want? You, just tell me. As long as he is willing to let us go."

Zhou Lichang clenched his teeth: "But after you take the money, you better let us go. If you really kill us, who can guarantee that Zhou Hao won't stand up for us?"

"Mm, that makes sense." The brawny guy laughed, "Boss Zhou, you are really a good talker.

"Hehehe, our boss knows that you've made a lot of money recently, and the boss doesn't want much either. It's just 100 million RMB, Boss Zhou, I'm sure you can afford it."

"One …" 100 million!? " Zhou Lichang roared: "He's crazy! I, I don't even have 100 million! "

In the past half year, he had earned money from taking on Zhou Hao's title, adding on to his previous savings, he only earned a total of 110 million. The other party asking for 100 million right away, this was even more unbearable than killing him.

The stout man did not say anything else. He raised his gun and aimed it at Zhou Zhihao's head and pulled the trigger.

"Bam!"

Zhou Zhihao's entire body was trembling, and her crotch area was slowly getting wet. His face was ashen, but she was safe and sound. On the other hand, Xu Yongwei screamed repeatedly, his face completely devoid of blood.

The man then smiled and said to Zhou Lichang: "Boss Zhou, this time I'm big empty. Next time, I'll just play live ammunition."

Xu Yongwei also bellowed from Zhou Lichang: "Zhou you, quickly agree to them. Even if Zhihao and Xin Xin get scared, I won't let you off even if I become a ghost!"

Zhou Lichang was so scared that his soul almost left his body. Just now, when he heard the gunshot, he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He never thought that the other party would be so ruthless.

This time, Zhou Lichang did not dare to hold on, and said dejectedly: "I'll give, I'll give, big brother, I agree."

The man patted Zhou Lichang's face: That's right, although money is good, but do you want it to be worth more than your life? Furthermore, as the saying goes, once the chicken eggshell is blown, money is lost and people will be happy. "
