Before the return trip, Pu Demon and Yan Ruihan comforted Yaozi, who had been left out in the cold these days, this guy's cannonballs didn't scare him away, he really deserved to be a horse who had seen the world with Yan Ruihan.

After sending it back, the group returned to the road, and everyone on the road was very excited, discussing in detail the benefits that this protective shield can bring, while talking about jade materials. At this time, the hospital called to say that Han Xiong had woken up.

So all but one of them was assigned to return the loading cart, and everyone else went to the first courtyard.

The Pu Demon Demon followed Yan Ruihan, walked in front of the "kick and kick", pushed open the door and looked at Han Xiong, who was turning his head to look over.

"Big bear, you're finally awake!" said the demon who happily walked over to his bed and sat down, careful not to touch him.

Zhongli and Zell also walked in and followed Yan Ruihan over to ask the doctor next to him who had just finished examining him about his condition.

Han Xiong just woke up, his face was still pale, and he had lost a lot of weight, but his spirit was okay. He smiled and said sincerely, "Yes." I've heard that I'll be able to come back alive this time, and the demon can make a big effort. Save your life, and you can only say anything in the future. ”

Pu Demon Demon was not used to this kind of solemnity of being thanked by the party, his face was a little red, and he waved his hand and said: "No, no! I volunteered, and it wasn't my credit alone, Zell still has a lot of guards to save you back." ”

Han Xiong stopped arguing slightly, and had already made up his mind. He looked at Zell and the guards next to him, and said, "Brother, thank you, I'll go to the guards another day to invite you to drink." ”

After the doctor finished talking to a few people, he gave instructions on precautions before pushing the door out. Zell turned to look at Han Xiong and said with a smile: "Please drink and you will definitely not be able to run, but you will have to talk about it until you are well." You are lucky, the doctor said that it is good to look dangerous and not hurt the vital point, but you should stop drinking, meat and spicy within a month, you should raise it first. ”

Han Xiong's face suddenly wrinkled into a bitter gourd face, the general governs the army strictly, and the wine is not often drunk, so forget it, if there is no meat to eat, this is not his life!

"General, or I..." Han Xiong turned his mind around and looked at Yan Ruihan, and was successfully persuaded to retreat by his expressionless face. His face changed, and he said firmly, "I will definitely listen to the doctor." ”

Everyone was amused by his appearance.

After confirming that he was okay and just waiting to recuperate, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After the greetings, Yan Ruihan asked about the matter: "What was the situation that day?"

Han Xiong Zhengse said: "After we succeeded, we immediately retreated, and Wei Wu chased after him with people. Three of his brothers set up an ambush behind him and stopped him, and he shot me as I entered the water. ”

His kung fu has not been in vain over the years, under Yan Ruihan, Han Xiong's skills are already among the best in the base, and Zeer, who specializes in guarding and killing, is among the best, which shows that Wei Wu's skills are indeed extraordinary.

Yan Ruihan nodded, and everyone who had never fought against Wei Wu also strengthened their vigilance against him. Han Xiong then asked, "By the way, General, how is the situation outside now?"

Yan Ruihan didn't say much, only said: "Thanks to your sneak attack, Wei Wu's heavy military losses have exceeded half, and the northern base and the dark blue base are facing our troops on the east and south sides of the base, and they are in a stalemate. ”

Zhongli also nodded and said, "You still don't know the defense level of the base? The annual military expenditure is not spent in vain, and besides, the general is here." You should cultivate well, get up and work as soon as you are well, and don't take the opportunity to be lazy. ”

Han Xiong was relieved now, and picked up an orange and peeled it. Seeing that he smirked and nodded without speaking, Zhongli said as if he remembered something: "But you are really dangerous this time, you have been in a coma for a few days, Bai Bing is also very anxious, she can't leave the current situation, but the orange in your hand was given to me by her, you remember to call back." ”

As soon as Zhongli said this, Han Xiong gnawed on half of the orange and suddenly felt a little hot in his face. He was a man of five years and three thick, and he nodded and said "yes", and the oranges in his mouth seemed to be sweeter.

After leaving the hospital, Yan Ruihan immediately began to arrange the mining of jade mines. If the situation was as bad as he had speculated, he was ready to save the people and abandon the city. After all, the troops of the Qiumu base are strong, and they are so careful, but they are only worried about the city.

But abandoning the city is a helpless choice, and now that the Pu Demon has given them hope, they naturally don't want to be ruined by ten years of hard work.

In the command room, Yan Ruihan, Zhongli, Zeer, and the Pu Demon were sitting together. Yan Rui thought for a moment and asked, "Demon Demon, how much jade is needed to build a defensive array as powerful as the one seen today, covering the entire base and reaching the city wall?"

Pu Demon remembered the area of the entire base, and he thought for a moment and said: "According to the area of the base, it is necessary to set up eighty-one formations, and each point is dug into a pit with a diameter of one meter and five and a depth of three meters. Each point is about, well, eight hundred catties of jade. ”

Yan Ruihan didn't speak, the corners of Zhongli and Ze'er's mouths twitched, one point of eight hundred catties of jade, a total of sixty-four thousand eight, he thought this was some kind of rotten stone that can be seen everywhere! Jade mines don't have jade in every stone, right! The important thing is, how long will it take for so much jade to be mined and brought over? The two of them only felt that the light of hope that had just appeared was about to be extinguished.

Yan Ruihan was still thinking about it, and the reason why he would continue to think about it was that the news from the people who returned to the mine was only two days away from the Qiumu base, and it could be reached in a day and a half by day and night.

Pu Demon also saw everyone's embarrassment, raised his eyebrows and said: "The more volume, the better the effect, a point is at least six hundred catties, all of which must be high-quality jade, and the larger the monomer, the better." ”

At this time, Yan Ruihan suddenly turned his head to look at Zhongli: "How long will it take for the rescue team and the mining team to arrive?"

Zhongli replied: "Their car is broken, they will walk slowly with the goods, and they will arrive tomorrow afternoon at the latest, and they will arrive early tomorrow morning." ”

Yan Ruihan stood up and immediately said, "Go and pick them up." ”

Then he turned his head to look at the Pu Demon again, and said apologetically: "I may not be able to sleep tonight, we have to go and see how the jade is doing." ”

The Pu Demon smiled happily and nodded quickly: "Okay, let's set off immediately!"

He was really happy that Yan Ruihan could let him face difficulties together. Although Yan Ruihan used to pet him like a baby, he was very happy, and he was happy to enjoy his care, but it was a safe and quiet thing. Now that he is facing a difficult situation, forging ahead is the right way, and he also wants to protect his human race.

In the middle of the woods, a group of people carrying cloth bags struggled to run forward.

Bypassing a mound, the group hid in a hidden place next to it, and fell to the ground exhausted, "whirring" and panting.

"!" one of them cursed in a low voice, "are these hyenas, they can chase thousands of miles when they smell it." ”

The other mercenary laughed bitterly at him: "What do you smell? Haha, you smell like sweat!"

However, after his interruption, everyone's nervousness was also relieved.

Among them, a mercenary who had obviously been in the army said helplessly: "No way, who called us so unlucky, the tires of the car were all punctured and exploded." ”

There was also a soldier's shadow next to him, and the man who was taller than him handed him a piece of dried meat and said, "Didn't those who pursued him also burst their tires by everyone. And although it was hard to walk with something on his shoulder, it was good to get off the road, otherwise it is unknown whether he would have been caught. It's hard work now, but they won't be able to catch us, and we'll be there tomorrow. ”

The man was obviously the backbone of this line, and when he said this, everyone nodded in agreement. Among them, a sturdy middle-aged man sitting a little farther away from him and a few people beside him had a somewhat complicated expression, but they didn't say anything.

This group is the jade mine exploration team at the Qiumu base and the rescue team that went to find them. The tall man I mentioned before was Xue Cheng, who was disguised as a mercenary, and they met Mu Li and them yesterday who were restrained by unknown forces. and the real mercenary middle-aged man Yang Zhong and them had a surprise attack and saved Mu Li and his party.

The other side was like a hornet's nest that had been stabbed, chasing them wildly, and also designing their car to break down, so everyone had to divert to Qiulin.

Mu Li was rescued by Xue Cheng several times along the way, and he really admired him. He was originally a patrol soldier in the city, because the military department was paid well for the task of searching for jade mines, he happened to be familiar with the surrounding environment, and there happened to be a limited number of declaration places in the organization, so he signed up.

There were six of them in their group, and they didn't think they would find it. Even when he was cheering, he accidentally bumped into that group of strange people, and he was bound to chase and kill them.

After resting for a while, Xue Cheng summoned everyone to move on. At this time, there seems to be a movement next to it. Xue Cheng immediately signaled everyone to pay attention to the fact that the middle-aged man Yang Zhong has been a mercenary all year round, and he can't detect any abnormal noise, so he takes a gun to be on guard. Xue Cheng leaned over silently, gently lifted a blade of grass and glanced over there, breathing a sigh of relief.

He retracted his gun and said, "It's okay, it's a bunch of monkeys." ”

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, and those with better physical strength picked up the cloth bag and began to hurry. After another roundabout, the road ahead was relatively flat, and everyone took turns carrying cloth bags, and the speed of travel was faster.

After walking for a while, Xue Cheng suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Be careful!" the next moment, he shouted, and at the same time dropped the cloth bag in his hand, threw himself to the side, and rolled behind a big tree with Mu Li. Almost at the same time, there was a "crackling" of gunfire, and bullets were fired from the right side of their path.

The others who reacted quickly also quickly found cover and raised their guns to fight back, and several of the slow ones were knocked to the ground, leaving only a few screams.

Xue Cheng took Mu Li and rolled to the side two more times, hiding under a mound before he began to fight back.

Yan Ruihan and his entourage drove north out of the base, there was only a rough dirt road to clear the trees, which was planned and abandoned by the Qiumu base before, it was not a road, but the military Humvee was good at trekking mountains and wading through rivers, so it was a little bumpy, and it was also able to walk.

Less than two hours after crossing the territory, everyone heard a burst of gunshots, and they immediately stopped the car and followed.

The dense bullets hit Xue Cheng and they could barely raise their heads, and there were many more people on the other side than them. Listening to the approaching gunshots, Xue Cheng looked ahead fiercely, and the corners of his mouth bit out blood.

He pushed Mu Li beside him: "You go first, we will break last." ”

Mu Li clenched the short knife in his hand and shook his head, they had no more ammunition.

"Let's go together. "He couldn't leave them and run away.

"Let's go!" Xue Cheng yelled at him, and Mu Li trembled at him. Xue Chengtou didn't turn his head and aimed ahead, his voice had calmed down, "Only you and your companions know the location of the jade mine, and the people in the mining area who are venturing back cannot guarantee that everything is foolproof, you have to wait for the news to the military headquarters in person." ”

Mu Li wanted to say that they had sent back the location information, and the base had sent the news back to you, and I saw it. But Mu Li looked at his back prostrate on the ground and still straight, and didn't speak, but his eyes were a little sour

A shuttle of bullets swept in, sending dust to the mound. Xue Cheng held Mu Li tightly and didn't let him look up.

The gunfire went out slightly, and Xue Cheng pushed Mu Li and was about to say more, but there was a gunshot and screams in the distance.

Is it reinforcements? The two looked at each other, Mu Li was full of joy, and Xue Cheng also seemed to see hope.

The exchange of fire on the other side was fierce, and others, including Yang Zhong and others, also took the opportunity to hide and ask Xue Cheng's opinion.

Xue Cheng said: "Wait, get ready, if something goes wrong, retreat immediately." ”

The battle lasted for a short time, stopping in less than ten minutes. Zell led the people to approach this side, while transmitting the corresponding signal, while Yan Ruihan walked back to the demons.

The car door opened, and the demon demon in the car glared at Yan Ruihan, moved over and kicked him, and got out of the car and left in a huff.

As soon as everyone got out of the car to fight, Yan Ruihan subconsciously locked the Pu Demon in the car with his backhand, and the Pu Demon was stunned by his operation.

What about fighting side by side?

It wasn't until he heard Zell's secret message that Xue Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, saw Zhongli again, and brought everyone over to join everyone.

It was inconvenient for outsiders to come forward in Yan Ruihan, and the Pu Demon who was coaxed by him also sat in the car with him and didn't come out.

Yang Zhong saw that the two sides had met and knew Zhong Li, and after Zhong Li settled the employment balance on the spot, ate, drank, and trimmed up, Yang Zhong took his own people and left. Even the car that Zhongli arranged for him to go to the base for repairs was on board, and he was also a person who was honest and did not take advantage.

Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the Hillwood Base has been eventful recently.

Zhongli arranged for a car to send the wounded fighters back to the base first, and they waited where they were.

It didn't take long for Fan Cheng to appear in front of them with someone in a low-key manner.
