The temperature at the top of the mountain has plummeted, and in some places there are even frost knots. The smell of Tang Zixian and the members of the archaeological team became much lighter here, but the direction could be determined, and she and the people of the archaeological team went in the direction of the abyss at the foot of the mountain.

Ning Tao looked at the direction of the abyss, frowned, and pondered in his heart, "I've been in the mountain city for a few days, those guys have probably followed the direction of the water to find the abyss, right? If they know that there is something terrible down there, I wonder if they will be so active?"

Descending from the mountain peak and entering the forest on the mountainside, the smell of Tang Zixian and the members of the archaeological team became obvious again. Traces of their walks were also clearly visible on the ground, with footprints and traces of people falling.

There were smells and traces, and Ning Tao sped up. In the forest, there are ladders at his feet, and his figure is like those heroes who can do light skills in martial arts movies, running on grass and flying over stones.

After a while, Ning Tao came to the end of the abyss. The scent of Tang Zixian and the members of the archaeological team extended down from where he was standing, and the situation he was most worried about still appeared. If they explore along the abyss and go all the way, they will discover the tribe of the Shennongjia savages, and then they will discover the Yin Moon City under the abyss. And that, that is definitely not an archaeological discovery that shocked the world, but the beginning of a nightmare.

Descending from the abyss, Ning Tao continued to track forward.

The scents and traces of Tang Zixian and the members of the archaeological team were more obvious below the abyss, and had been extending in the direction of the Shennongjia Savage Tribe.

When passing by a quagmire, Ning Tao stopped. Under the beam of the flashlight, there was a trail of chaos next to the quagmire. His heart moved, and he immediately awakened the sight and smell of his eyes and nose, and he did not see the prior weather of the living form, but caught the smell of decay of the corpse emerging from under the mire.

Someone fell into the mud and died in the mud.

The person who died in the quagmire was the elderly woman, Dong Qing, the ore expert of the archaeological team. It was easy for Ning Tao to judge this, because her scent ended here and did not extend forward. Whoever loses the smell will sleep in this quagmire.

This was an accident, but it was not surprising that the person who died was Dong Qing, because her physical fitness should be the weakest one in the entire archaeological team, and her eyes were not good.

Ning Tao continued to track.

If he was here at that time, Dong Qing would definitely not die, he was fully capable of saving her. However, except for Ma Tongtong, everyone in the entire archaeological team opposed him joining the archaeological team. This is not to say that the other members of the archaeological team except Ma Tongtong deserve to die, but this result is regrettable.

The abyss was covered with thick fog, and there were no people in sight, only the smell and footprints left in the air and on the ground, and the archaeological team went all the way forward. Ning Tao tracked all the way, his speed was comparable to that of a predatory cheetah, and even the quagmire flew directly over the quagmire.

But tracking all the way, Ning Tao's mood became heavier and heavier, not for anything else, just because it was the tribe of the Shennongjia savages going forward.

A smell of blood suddenly wafted from the front, and Ning Tao's heart tightened and he quickened his pace.

The smell of blood was the "outpost" of the Shennongjia savages, and the pile of stones and the ground were sprinkled with blood. There was the smell of gunpowder smoke in the fog, and bullet casings were scattered on the ground.

"Guns?" Ning Tao was surprised, because he had the impression that the archaeological team did not have guns, and Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin, who joined later, did not bring guns, so how could there be bullet casings here?

He picked up a bullet casing, about four or five centimeters long, or about five centimeters if you added the bullet, and this length of bullet is the bullet commonly used in assault rifles.

After refining the shell gun, he looked up some information related to firearms on the Internet, and judged what kind of firearm it was based on the characteristics of the bullet casing, not 100% accurate, but it was generally reliable.

"Rifles?" Ning Tao's brows suddenly furrowed, and he secretly said in his heart: "Our country's firearms control is extremely strict, and it is difficult to get a pistol, let alone a rifle. Tu Wenjin is the boss of a listed company with a net worth of 10 billion yuan, and he came here to explore entirely because of Tang Zixian, but he would not be stupid enough to illegally possess a rifle, right? Once discovered, it would be a few years in prison. But if it weren't for Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin having rifles, who would it be?"

He stretched out his hand and dipped it in a little blood, but the blood did not coagulate, and it was not human blood, but the blood of the Shennongjia savages.

Bang bang bang......

Suddenly, a dull sound of gunfire came from the thick fog ahead.

Ning Tao pulled his legs and ran in the direction where the gunfire came from, and as he ran, he put his flashlight back into the small medicine box, and then pulled out the unbreakable fan and the shell gun, holding the fan in his left hand and the gun in his right hand. The man with the gun is unknown, and he may shoot him, and he must be prepared for battle.

The smell of blood in the dense fog became stronger and stronger, and corpses appeared on the ground, including Shennongjia savages who were shot and fell to the ground, as well as members of the archaeological team whose heads were smashed alive by stones, and armed men wearing body armor!

Through a thick fog, the field of vision in front of him suddenly opened up, and the Shennongjia savage tribe entered Ning Tao's field of vision. At that moment, in the deafening sound of gunfire, a Shennongjia savage fell in a pool of blood.

Shennongjia has infinite manpower, but after all, it is flesh and blood, one or two shots are fine, but a few assault rifles strafe at it, and in an instant, dozens or hundreds of bullets hit its body, and it is very likely that there are special warheads, even an iron man will be broken, let alone its flesh and blood.

In the tribe, the corpses of the Shennongjia savages were lying everywhere, as well as the corpses of armed men and members of the archaeological team.

Ning Tao also saw Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin, as well as members of the three surviving archaeological teams, Ji Wengui, Ma Tongtong and Yang Chen. The five men were controlled by armed men by a hot spring pool, and in that hot spring pool also floated the corpse of a Shennongjia savage, whose blood stained the hot spring pool red, and the bright blood color was shocking.

The armed men were all covered in black scarves, but in terms of size and skin color, there were mostly whites and blacks, and there were also Asians, but there were only two. One carried a soldier radio and a satellite phone, and the other carried a sniper rifle.

Ning Tao suddenly remembered a person, Nicholas Conti, the owner of the mysterious Black Fire Company. There is no country in this world that dares to send soldiers to fight on the land of China, but the Black Fire Company, which is an underground mercenary company, will not have too many scruples. In fact, if these armed men are really the mercenaries of the Black Fire Company, this is already the third military operation of the Black Fire Company.

The first attack on Blueprint Biotech's botanical gardens wiped out the team. The second time was to rebel against Liang Keming and use scientific and technological weapons, and that time it was successful, and Liang Keming kidnapped Lin Qinghua.

This time is the third time, they have taken control of the situation, and their battle is nearing the end. More than a dozen armed men are attacking the cave where the Shennongjia people also live, and it is pitch black inside, but they are all equipped with night vision devices with thermal imaging, and the darkness has little effect on them. However, they just blocked the entrance of the cave and shot into the cave, not daring to enter.

Ning Tao's heart burned with anger, and the evil side quietly woke up. On his side, he did his best to protect the Shennongjia savages, not wanting them to lose their last survival territory. He never brought his small team to rob the spiritual materials here, but these armed men killed people here unscrupulously, not only the wild people of Shennongjia, but also the people of the archaeological team!

Ning Tao raised the muzzle of the shell gun and aimed it at the dozen or so armed men blocking the entrance of the cave, and his right index finger pulled the trigger and pressed it back.

Suddenly, a burly white man shouted in English, "Stop shooting!"

The dozen or so armed men who were shooting frantically at the mouth of the cave stopped shooting.

Ning Tao also let go of his finger on the trigger, just now he was furious, eager to kill all the armed personnel here. But that was obviously not a rational decision, of course, he would have killed a few armed men with one shot, but then he would face a dozen assault rifles, and even grenade launchers, sniper rifles, grenades and so on. Even if he has a ladder under his feet and an unbreakable fan in his hand, he can't be faster than a bullet, and his unbreakable fan can't stop the bullets that come from raindrops. Moreover, he also has to face a bad situation that Ma Tongtong, Ji Wengui and Yang Chen are still under the control of the other party, once he shoots and kills someone, the other party is likely to shoot and kill the hostages.

"The boss said, catch two alive, don't kill both. The burly white man continued: "First force them out with tear gas, then eject them with anesthesia." Catch two alive and kill the rest. ”

Bang bang bang!

Immediately, several armed men fired tear gas from grenade launchers into the cave, and in the blink of an eye, a pungent smoke came out of the cave. The armed men blocking the entrance of the cave also retreated, ready to shoot the Shennongjia savages who escaped from inside, and they had already caught the gap.

Ning Tao's gaze fell on the corpse of an armed man with his head smashed beside him, and a thought popped up in his heart. He grabbed the body of the armed man and dragged him into the fog, then pulled off his combat suit and bulletproof vest and put it on himself. The other man's equipment bag was also used, and he filled the small medicine box inside, and in the process, he took out the Eclipse Blade and placed it in the canvas scabbard containing the saber on the outside of his thigh. In the end, he put on a blood-soaked black scarf, grabbed an assault rifle, and then sneaked over to Ma Tongtong and several other hostages.

But before Ning Tao could get close to the corner where Ma Tongtong and the other hostages were, an armed man found Ning Tao and said to Ning Tao in English: "You go to the forest to see what's going on with those guys, they haven't come back yet." ”

The armed men here turned out not to be all?

Ning Tao's mood suddenly became heavy, he nodded, and then walked towards the woods. The dimly lit place, coupled with the fact that his face was covered in blood, made it difficult for anyone who was not particularly familiar with the dead to spot his flaws. While walking, he observed the entrance of the cave with the corner of his eye, but fortunately, no Shennongjia savages ran out of the cave. Maybe it's because the cave is big and there are other passages. It may also be because the Shennongjia savages are not afraid of tear gas, and the tear gas bullets fired by those few armed men do not work at all.

Then, the corner of Ning Tao's eyes moved to Tang Zixian's body.

Tang Zixian was very calm.
