Chapter 371: Xifengkou Town Killing
Two hours later, the wolf smoke resumed.
However, on the return trip, the smoke and dust kicked up by the officers and men were far less intense, cheerful, and full of enthusiasm than when they came, and everyone's mood was as heavy as lead, their hearts were clouded, and the speed under their feet was much slower.
Looking at these predators with grim faces, Mu Ping was really uncomfortable in his heart and blamed himself.
He didn't expect that his opponent's attack would be so vicious.
Forty-six bodies have been found in the entire case.
However, since the main target of the opponent is these seven scientists, why did they choose to tear up the ticket?
Is it just revenge?
He couldn't figure it out.
But there is one thing he must do,—— and that is to gather hearts and minds and boost morale.
Since there's something in it that he doesn't know, find out about it!
Before leaving, Li Jingtao's words kept echoing in his ears, "As a commander, the more difficult the period, the more you must have a normal heart and judge the situation, so as to find clues in the clues, affect the changes in the entire battle situation in the counterattack, and turn the passive into the active." ”
At that time, Li Jingtao obviously regarded him as a hairy boy who didn't understand anything.
However, there is some truth in his words.
Breaking the hidden formation of Xifengkou Town was only the first step of his counterattack, and the second step was to go deep into the tiger's den.
The clues of the past few days have been replayed like a movie in Mu Ping's brain: Xifengkou Town - the weird Princess Wulan - Dahe Cemetery - the crash site - the mysterious base - the scientist appears - the murderous man-eating lizard ...... All this is revealing something, it seems to be disorganized, but after careful analysis, he can still find some useful clues from it.
At the moment, everything is directed at the mysterious general.
The driving force behind the scenes is also this person.
There are at least three forces involved, al-Qaeda, terrorists, and those who control the man-eating lizards, or the remnants of the ancient kingdom of Ulan, which have no physical bodies.
Is there a fourth force involved?—— which is the mysterious aliens? He didn't know.
At present, the first two of these three forces must be friends and foes, and the third force is friends?
At some point, it was completely dark, and in the distance, the town of Xifengkou, which had seen the light of day, stood there, black, no different from a huge man-eating lizard.
"All of them, go into the town and search!" As soon as he arrived outside the town, Wang Jian ignored Mu Ping and gave an order directly.
"Slow!" Mu Ping waved his hand to stop.
"Team Leader Mu, Mu Ping, what kind of face do you still have to give orders?" Wang Jian looked at Mu Ping playfully.
The rest of the warriors, though not as obvious as him, also had grim faces.
"Just because this group is the supreme commander here!" Mu Ping was also anxious, and instantly released his coercion.
The tiger is not powerful, you and I are a sick cat!
"Supreme Commander?, who made you the Supreme Commander?"
Wang Jian was pressed to sit on the ground, and there was blood snake flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he was still a boiled duck - with a hard mouth.
"Senior Staff Officer Wang, this group asks you, what is the order you received?" Mu Ping raised his eyebrows and said with a cold face.
"The order I received is to cooperate with your Xuan Group's actions!" Wang Jian tilted his neck defiantly and looked at Mu Ping, and said in an accentuated tone: "Did you hear it, it was cooperation, and I didn't say that I wanted us to completely obey your orders!"
"Did your superiors say that you would not be allowed to obey the orders of the group, and if you disrupted the deployment of the group, would you be able to bear the responsibility?"
Mu Ping's fire hit his head at once, if it weren't for this guy wearing this skin, if it wasn't for giving Li Jingtao face, he really wanted to kill him with a slap!
The toad jumps on the face - does not bite people, and responds to people.
"This ......" As soon as he heard that he was responsible, Wang Jian was immediately dumbfounded.
"Report to Staff Officer Wang, a lot of things like lanterns have been found on the streets of Xifengkou Town, I don't know what they are?" During the dispute, a second lieutenant in charge of reconnaissance ran to Wang Jian, saluted, and reported in a low voice.
"What? There are lanterns in the town?" Mu Ping and Wang Jian are a rin, and hurriedly climbed up the high slope, Mu Ping used his mental power, while Wang Jian took out a night vision device, and the two of them carefully observed Xifengkou Town.
As the second lieutenant had reported, the entire town of Xifengkou seemed to be occupied by a lantern that glowed pale green and swam around from time to time.
Mu Ping closed his eyes, turned his mental power into a line, and scanned a little bit, and the surprised expression on his face became more and more brilliant.
What kind of lantern is that, it's clearly the eyes of a huge man-eating lizard, and the light emitted by the dark night.
"Don't move, it's a man-eating lizard!"
Mu Ping shouted.
"Man-eating lizard?" Wang Jian's face changed, and he quickly raised his night vision goggles, and immediately saw a lazy man-eating lizard, raising his head from time to time and looking in the direction where the troops were.
There are 5,000 heads, tens of thousands of lanterns!
"Roar!"
As if knowing that someone was snooping, the man-eating lizard let out a roar, and goosebumps rose all over the body.
It's just scary.
"No, how can there be so many man-eating lizards here?" Wang Jian muttered to himself.
"What's the matter? Staff Officer Wang didn't calculate that there would be man-eating lizards in the town?"
Mu Ping jokingly opened his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on Wang Jian's eyes.
"That'...... How can I count, Team Leader Mu is really joking. He wiped the sweat from his forehead.
All the officers and soldiers gasped, if they listened to Wang Jian's orders and rashly broke in, would the tragedy of the seven scientists be staged on them?
Or, if you had left someone to guard it here, you might have already made a man-eating lizard's snack.
They couldn't have thought any further.
A yin wind surged from the back of the neck to the top of the brain, is this the rhythm of the ghost gate closed?
They looked at Mu Ping again, and felt that this young leader of the Xuan Group did have a few brushes, and the eyes of these iron-blooded men slowly climbed with a touch of gratitude and respect.
No matter who stays, they are their comrades-in-arms, and the loss of one makes others feel distressed.
Wang Jian's face was cloudy for a while and sunny for a while, and he stood there and wandered from time to time.
"Camp in place, send a guard post along the direction of Xifengkou Town and around the camp, and observe closely!" "The sudden change in front of him, although he has a soul in his heart, but Mu Ping is a monk after all, what kind of wind and waves have not been seen, but it is not clear which force these cannibal lizards belong to, otherwise, release Da Mao and Xiao Wu from the Na Ring, these are not monster things, and they can be destroyed in minutes.
The man-eating lizards in the town roared for a while, and then began to become quiet, some standing, some walking, and some just sitting in place, all with their eyes fixed on the direction of the camp, and there was a posture of going to war without saying a word.
Sit in a makeshift tent
, Mu Ping stroked his chin with his hand and fell into deep thought.
Nothing was said all night. Early the next morning, scouts reported that the man-eating lizards in the town had suddenly evaporated.
"More than 5,000 man-eating lizards have disappeared?" Mu Ping's face was shocked, and immediately, a smile crept up the corner of his mouth.
All this is the same as the conclusion he came to in his analysis last night.
"Enter town!" he commanded, waving his hand.
"Into the town?" Li Qing plucked out his ears and said, "Boss, I heard you right, you mean to enter the town now?"
"Team leader, the town was full of man-eating lizards last night, and now ...... go in" Liu Meng also looked suspicious.
"That's right, right now, you two give the order, in groups of five, and remember, don't destroy anything in the town, not a single grass or tree. ”
"Okay, I'll immediately convey the leader's order to the officers and soldiers of the unit. Mu Lan gave a military salute and turned to leave.
Except for leaving fifty people to be on guard, everyone worked in groups of five and slowly moved towards Dafengkou Town.
When the wind blew, the huge poplar leaves in the town made a "swish" sound, and all the officers and soldiers involuntarily clenched the steel guns in their hands.
They don't say anything, but they beat the drum in their hearts, afraid that a man-eating lizard will crawl out of some corner, and it will be a battle to the death.
Wang Jian is no exception.
Mu Ping put his hands behind his back and walked around to take a look, looking like nothing had happened at all, with a relaxed face.
Since breaking the concealment formation, his spiritual power has already been able to perceive everything in Xifengkou Town, and he found that those man-eating lizards disappeared at four or five o'clock in the morning, disappearing without any signs, as if they had never been here.
If there is no passage below the town, he will not believe it.
Are these man-eating lizards gathering here to tell him?
The streets of the entire Xifengkou Town are extremely neat, and it can be said that there is no sand at all. In the middle of the street are two rows of tall poplar trees, each tree is about 20 meters high, forming a forest, all say that the poplar tree grows for a thousand years, survives for a thousand years, and does not rot for a thousand years after death.
On both sides of the street, there are buildings of the Tang Dynasty, with blue bricks and blue tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, simple and solemn.
On the building, some plaques say rice shops, some write inns, and a silver shop, all of which show the prosperity of Xifengkou Town at that time.
But now, it is quiet, there is no sign of human activity, it is like a dead city, except for the sound of leaves, there is no vitality and vitality.
The streets in the town are not long, less than 3,500 meters, and it didn't take half an hour for Mu Ping to walk two round-trips.
On the ground, his eyes focused on a white marble archway.
The archway is more than 30 meters high, 178 meters wide, the pillar is carved from white marble, carved with flowers, birds, fish and insects, the base of the pillar, the carving is the man-eating lizard pattern, a man-eating lizard has a hideous face, angry eyes, as if struggling, roaring, at a glance, it makes people have a deep in it, creepy feeling.
Mu Ping didn't look at the eyes of the man-eating lizard, but at the fresh scratch.
In the entire town, there was no sign of man-eating lizard activity, but there was a fresh scratch on this pedestal, although it was not particularly conspicuous, but it was still keenly captured by Mu Ping.
He walked quickly to the archway, and his mental strength probed into the base, and after a while, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he bent out a beautiful arc.
