Chapter 176: Wen Jing Lost Contact

As soon as the people were rescued, Gu Xin and I were already much relieved, so when we turned around to catch up with Hong Kaiyuan and Wen Jing, the speed was also a lot faster.

Because we knew the map by heart, it didn't take much effort for us to get out of that labyrinth.

Outside the labyrinth, there was indeed an extremely huge underground space, and the moment I walked out of the cave, I felt as if I had returned to the underground abyss of the Qinling Mountains. - Except behind him, it is pitch black in all directions, and people with a slightly worse sense of direction will get lost here without any labyrinth.

There was no dust on the ground, only the small stones that had been kicked to tell us where the people who had come out of the maze had gone.

Half an hour later, there were more and more pebbles on the ground, and finally, not only sand appeared, but also the sound of water was heard!

Like Gu Xin, Yu Jian and the others were also stuffy, except for guarding the surroundings while walking, my mouth was almost closed.

As we continued to advance, a sandy beach appeared on the road, and sparkling waves could already be seen at the end of the beach.

At this time, the footprints on the beach are getting more and more messy, and it is certain that it is definitely not only the footprints of Wen Jing and the three of them, there are at least more than a dozen people!

When we were near the water's edge, there were suddenly a lot of bullet casings on the beach!

I was shocked: what the hell is there here?

No, if there are poisonous insects and beasts here, there should be a mark on the mural!

It's not good, it must have been Wang Quan's grandson who shot when he was chasing Wen Jing and them!

"San'er, look at it, is this the bullet casing we are using now?" I asked Gu Xin.

Gu Xin didn't speak, picked one up from the ground and glanced at it, then nodded.

I didn't ask any more questions, walked to the water's edge and shone around with a flashlight.

This is an underground dark river, the water flow is clear, except for the deep black in the distance, the surface of the water in front of me is not deep, no more than a meter at most. The current is not too fast.

The river is relatively wide, nearly 100 meters, and the flashlight can only barely reach the shadow of the opposite bank.

Judging by the situation depicted in the frescoes, the underground water system here must be very large, and there is not only one river.

After Gu Xin took a turn on the beach, he returned to my side.

"Brother, judging from the situation where they shot, sister-in-law and Brother Yuan should have run away!" Obviously, Gu Xin also knew that the bullet casings here were not left behind by Wang Quan and them dealing with something. Because every trace of blood left on the beach, and there was no trace of non-human life.

I nodded, and began to worry about the safety of the three of them.

"We've been at least a couple of hours away from them, so we're going to have to hurry!" I said, and I waded into the river. The water was so cold that I started to shiver before I had taken a few steps.

Towards the middle of the river, the current was noticeably much faster, and the river was already up to the neck. I gritted my teeth and swam forward with all my thoughts on the other side.

A few minutes later, we were on shore.

As soon as he landed ashore, Gu Xin took Yu Jian and a few people to continue to search around, and found that there were indeed three footprints, left and right and front. Except for the one in front of which was only one person's footprint, the two on the left and right were more than seven or eight people.

"Wang Quanbing divided into two ways and deliberately gave up the middle one, he was going to grab both sides first, and then encircle the middle one!" Gu Xin said in a deep voice.

I looked at the footprints in the middle, and my mind immediately understood.

This row of footprints is not only deep, but also large! There will be no other possibility except for Hong Kaiyuan.

"It seems that my sister-in-law and Wushuang are running in both directions, and the reason why Brother Yuan is running in the middle is mainly to attract Wang Quan's attention through himself!" Gu Xindao.

I sighed and said with a wry smile: "The fat man is really an idealist, the girl and Wushuang are girls after all, and they are relatively weak in both physical strength and other aspects, in this case, I would do the same if I were Wang Quan." ”

"What now?" Gu Xin began to get excited.

I looked at the footprints again and saw that Wen Jing was running to the left. Because, compared with Ji Wushuang, her footprints are not as slender and light as Ji Wushuang.

Thinking that Wen Jing didn't have Ji Wushuang's ability, I became more and more worried.

"You take four men to the right, and I take Yu Jian and them to the left. With that, I greeted Yu Jian and chased after him to the left.

As depicted in the mural, we swam across a total of five rivers before finally catching up on a huge rock.

The soaked clothes clung to my skin, and with the cold air around me, it was as if someone was skinning me with a knife.

Glancing at Yu Jian and the others, they didn't care at all.

"Mr. Zhao, I think you better take off your clothes and bake it quickly, otherwise you will fall down first before you catch up with anyone!" Yu Jian shone my face with a flashlight and continued: "Your lips are black!"

"I'm fine, hurry up and look around to see if there are any clues!" I forced myself to keep up my spirits and immediately followed the footprints.

But soon, the sand on the shore turned to gravel, and when I got to the boulder pile, I lost track of it.

"The terrain here is complicated, so don't run around, let us come. With that, Yu Jian waved his hand, and several people immediately scattered around and touched towards the boulder pile.

I followed his advice, took off my clothes under a boulder, and quickly changed into a set of dry clothes from my backpack, but before I could finish tidying up, I heard Yu Jian say loudly: "Mr. Zhao, you'd better come over!"

Listening to the tone of his voice should be something discovering, but it's not a bad situation.

So I hurried over.

By the time I arrived, Yu Jian and the others had already gathered, and they were in a cave made of several boulders at the moment.

The cave was big enough for a truck to get in and out, and I couldn't see inside because of the line of sight.

Yu Jian and the others were surrounding a thing, and when they stepped forward to take a look, I was immediately taken aback: on the ground was Wen Jing's backpack!

There were several holes in the backpack, which had been opened, and the inside and outside had long been soaked with water, and there were some warm clothes and some commonly used items scattered next to it. I didn't find the one that contained the medicine except for the two waterproof bags that also had holes.

I crouched down and looked through my backpack, and after finding no blood, the stone in my heart was finally half lowered.

"She should have changed her clothes here!" Yu Jian pointed to the clothes on the side and said, "I remember, Ms. Wen was wearing this when we came in!"

I shook my head: "She didn't change into the clothes in her bag, I know what she was bringing!

"No!" Yu Jian suddenly smiled a little embarrassed.

I didn't go any further, and asked, "What else did you find out about this?"

"Over there. Yu Jian led me to the cave with a gun.

After a while, I saw an antique copper box.

The case was made of bronze and was not large, about the size of a normal suitcase, and was placed in a slit on the side. It's a slit, but it can also fit two people around in it.

I crouched down and began to examine it closely.

"It's empty, I opened it just now. "Yu Kendo.

I didn't answer and opened the lid.
