Chapter 468 Li Donglin's Little Thoughts
When Li Donglin gave the instructions, none of us said a word. Judging from his expression, he seemed certain that the Japanese had hidden the No. 8 secret vault of gold here.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Lao Fang to find officials to come and guard the area. According to Li Donglin's requirements, there should be at least ten people on duty.
Meng Guizi, on the other hand, has about ten reliable brothers.
"This time, let's have a major collaboration between the police and the community!"
After giving his instructions, Li Donglin even cracked a joke.
"Donglin, why are you making such a big fuss?" Meng Guizi sensed something was wrong.
"If we don't make such a big show of it, how can we keep the demons and monsters inside in check?"
Li Donglin pointed to the power plant and said.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say goes, I'll do it your way!" Meng Guizi nodded and stopped arguing.
"Hehe, you two brothers, thank you for your trouble. You go ahead and call for help, we'll go in and take a look!" Li Donglin said, cupping his hands in greeting.
"Be careful, things aren't safe in this building!" Old Fang warned.
Don't worry!
Li Donglin waved his hand, gestured towards us with his lip, and said, "Let's go!"
Walking along the overgrown path, I arrived at the power plant, and the first thing I felt was a chill.
Fatty Lin took out his compass, glanced at it, and cursed, "Damn, the magnetic field here is so chaotic!"
I glanced at it; the hands were spinning so fast they were practically about to jump out of the water.
"Let's go, the compass is useless here!"
Li Donglin looked up and went inside first.
The power plant's doors were long gone; walking through the broken hole in the wall, the chill intensified.
Li Donglin paused for a moment and said, "Let's leave aside the above-ground buildings. The entrance we're looking for isn't on the surface, it's underground. According to the blueprints, there are three underground levels. The passage leading to the secret vault is in the flue of the underground crematorium."
"Brother Li, how do you know so much?" Fatty Lin asked, somewhat surprised.
"If I didn't know, would I have come straight here?" Li Donglin asked in return.
"Brother Li, do you mean that the No. 8 secret vault is down here?" I asked.
"I don't know if it's here or not, but based on the notes I've obtained, there must be a secret vault here. As for whether it's number eight, I don't know!" Li Donglin said.
"Besides that, there is also a secret vault inside the belly of Woniu Ridge!" Li Donglin added.
"Brother Li, do you not trust Brother Fang and Brother Meng?" I asked after thinking for a moment.
If they trusted him, Li Donglin wouldn't have kept the secret vault from them, nor would he have brought ten policemen to guard it.
Not only the police, but he also ordered Meng Guizi to send ten men over.
The reason for doing this is clearly because they are worried that if there are too few people, those two will take the opportunity to cause trouble.
"I really can't trust him!"
Li Donglin readily admitted, saying, "Wealth can move people's hearts, let alone five hundred tons of gold!"
"Old Fang used to work for the tourism bureau. If it weren't for the money, wouldn't he be doing a good job as a deputy director? In a small place like Sunwu, even if it's not a powerful department, it's still quite good!"
"As for that Meng devil, needless to say, he controls the sex industry and tourism in the city across the street, Buenos Aires. He's a mafia boss, and he's Russian. Do you think I can trust them?"
"Brother Li, everyone says you're a reckless man, but you're not reckless at all!" Fatty Lin said.
"shit!"
Li Donglin rolled his eyes and said, "If I were a reckless fool, would I have been able to return alive from Japan back then?"
"If I were a reckless fool, could I possibly go back to Japan and, through some mystical trickery, obtain the notes about the secret vault from the descendants of those beastly Japanese devils from back then?"
At this point, Li Donglin paused, then said, "Sometimes I'm just too lazy to use my brain, not that I'm brainless!"
"Brother Li, what you said makes me a little sad. I also wish I could just sweep through without using my brain!" Fatty Lin said.
"You little rascal!"
Li Donglin pointed at Fatty Lin and said, "Don't be fooled by Lao Fang and Meng Guizi's enthusiasm towards me; actually, our friendship isn't that deep!"
"Especially Meng the Devil, do you think he got that nickname from somewhere?"
Li Donglin's face darkened at the mention of this nickname.
"How did you get here?" I asked.
"He's a gang leader. He got that nickname because he hated the Japanese more than anything, and also because he was even more ruthless than the Japanese!"
"Otherwise, how do you think he, a Chinese man, became a mafia boss and controlled the sex industry in Russian territory?"
Li Donglin said coldly.
"No wonder you didn't trust them, Brother Li!" Now I understand.
Li Donglin both used and guarded against these two individuals.
"Brother Li, so you trust us?" Fatty Lin asked with a smile.
"Do you even know how much money you've donated?" Li Donglin didn't answer, but instead asked a question in return.
"I really didn't remember!" Fatty Lin said after thinking for a moment.
That's true, we really didn't remember.
We got money from those celebrities and tycoons in Hong Kong. We kept the small amounts, a few hundred thousand, for ourselves, but we donated the larger amounts, which were over a million.
We haven't kept track of exactly how much we've donated, but it's definitely over 100 million. We haven't actually tallied the exact number.
"Look at you, none of you even remembered it, did you?"
Li Donglin chuckled and pointed at us, saying, "With guys like you, why would I worry about you being greedy for money? Right, Fourth Brother?"
Finally, Li Donglin looked at the blind man beside him and asked with a smile.
"Donglin, don't let his fat, lazy, greedy, and lecherous appearance fool you. His character is truly impeccable!" Blind Zuo nodded.
"Fourth Brother, why do your words sound so different?"
Fatty Lin objected, "Does my good character match my laziness, gluttony, slipperiness, and lustfulness?"
"take!"
We exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously.
"Fine, I give in!"
Upon seeing this, Fatty Lin raised his hands in surrender.
"Alright, enough of that nonsense, let's find the entrance!" Li Donglin said softly after looking around.
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"
Xiao Ba popped out, grabbed Long Ni'er's ear, and barked several times.
"Xiao Ba said the smell here is wrong. It's a mixture of corpse oil, resentment, and the burnt smell left after burning bones!" Long Nier translated.
"Xiao Ba is stressed!" I said.
"Um!"
Long Nier gently tapped Xiao Ba's little head, comforting him a couple of times.
Xiao Ba wrinkled its nose, snorted, and nuzzled Long Ni'er to indicate that it was alright.
Let's go!
Li Donglin glanced at Xiao Ba and pointed to a half-collapsed iron gate on the side: "Go in from here. This is the old boiler passage. Watch your step; the floorboards are all rotten."
As Li Donglin spoke, he crawled inside.
We followed him inside, and as soon as we entered, an even stronger odor filled our nostrils.
It was a strange smell, a mixture of fishy, sweet, burnt, and rotten flavors.
