Chapter 387: Underground Dark River
Chapter 387 Underground Dark River
He didn't think about rushing into the cave alone, and he wasn't a superman, so he wouldn't do such a stupid thing that would kill him.
When it was completely dark, Major Hong and his team arrived at the canyon.
"Hello Mr. Feng! I didn't expect you to be ahead of us. This gang of bandits is too difficult to deal with, and the jungle is extremely experienced. If it weren't for the positioning equipment you provided, we would have been dumped by them a long time ago. ”
Major Hong is a cheerful man and does not hide his shortcomings.
"Well, they're in that cave in the mountains. I watched for a long time, but I didn't see any signs of human activity. ”
Feng Tiance planned to finish explaining to Major Hong, so he took the hounds and evacuated the area. This is really no joke, once there is a battle, the gun is not long-eyed, but you have to be careful of stray bullets.
"Well, thank you, Mr. Feng. I'll take care of the rest, so you'd better leave first. ”
Major Hong didn't ask such a mentally retarded question as whether the intelligence was reliable, he glanced at the few hunting dogs beside Feng Tiance, and he had a number in his heart.
"Yes, I hope you all return safely. ”
Feng Tiance said a word of blessing and got up and went back the same way. He didn't rush back to the stone fort, but planned to stay away from the battlefield first.
Let Wolf Nine and Thirteen go and summon all the shepherd dogs scattered around, and he left the cave for seven or eight hundred meters before he sat down behind a huge rock.
After waiting for a short time, there was a sudden violent explosion in my ears. He looked into the distance, and there was a blinding fire coming from the mouth of the cave.
He quickly retracted and said in his heart: "This Major Hong is also a ruthless person, and he directly used rockets as soon as he came up." ”
Feng Tiance guessed correctly, in order to reduce casualties, Major Hong asked the soldiers to aim at the hole and fired three individual rockets. However, this should be fine, first clear the hole and the obstacles inside, and not blow up the entire cave.
He raised his night vision binoculars and looked over, only to see that many soldiers had rushed to the vicinity of the cave entrance. Tear gas was then thrown into the cave until smoke began to billow, and soldiers in gas masks began to enter the cave one after another.
"This Major Hong is very cautious......"
When Feng Tiance saw this, he let go of his worries. In any case, Major Hong is also half of the person who protects the base, and he also hopes that these soldiers will be safe.
"Let's go, go home and sleep......"
Feng Tiance did what he had to do, and there was no need to stay any longer, so he simply evacuated with a group of dogs.
He was going to go a little further and find a suitable place to settle the hounds and sheepdogs, and he went back to sleep. When it was dawn tomorrow, he would come back and explore the jungle with the wolves.
When he came, he was in a hurry and ran all the way, and he didn't have the opportunity to collect plants or explore in detail. He plans to return the same way tomorrow to make up for this lesson.
It was not difficult to find a temporary shelter for the wolves, but he wanted to stay away from the battlefield, so he walked out two or three kilometers, which took more than an hour. But now I'm not in a hurry, so let's take a walk.
Finding a suitable position, Feng Tiance said: "Wolf One, a few of you and these sheepdogs will stay here tonight, I will come to you tomorrow morning, and then go back together." ”
For Feng Tiance's order, neither the shepherd dog nor these four hounds will object, they will stay in this sheltered mountain trough tonight.
After Feng Tiance finished explaining, he was ready to turn off all the phones and go back to sleep well. But at this moment, the satellite phone that had spoken to Major Hong before made a buzzing vibration sound, and he had to answer it before talking about anything else.
"Major Hong, how's the situation going?"
"It's unbelievable that they ran away again. Let me tell you, there is no cave in the cave, and it leads to the belly of the mountain. There's also an underground river that leads to no one, but I'm sure the bandits fled along it.
If it is late today, and I have no ships, I can only collect my troops and return to the camp. Mr. Feng, why don't you come back now and go with us? I'm afraid that if you meet those bandits alone, you will be in trouble. ”
Of course, Major Hong didn't want the director of the foundation to have an accident right under his nose, so he called as soon as possible.
"Thank you, Major Hong. But I've come a long way and it's hard to get back. I've found a place to spend the night, and I'll spend the night in the jungle with my hound, and I'll go home early tomorrow morning. ”
Feng Tiance was very interested in the unbelievable evacuation methods of those guys, so he didn't plan to follow Major Hong back to the base, but planned to go to that cave tomorrow morning to have a look.
"Okay, be careful yourself. Then we'll be back at base. ”
They are all adults, and they are responsible for their own actions. Major Hong had already done his duty, did not continue to persuade, and soon hung up.
Feng Tiance reported Yelena's safety again, and then turned off all the phones. He prepared food and water for the hounds and sheepdogs, and returned to the stone castle alone.
In today's arrest operation, Major Hong basically fulfilled his duty, but it was not very desperate. Feng Tiance can actually understand that the underground river is very dangerous, and they are not familiar with the terrain, so of course they will retreat.
For him, it is even more difficult to fight with his life. That's why he decided to wait one night to investigate.
In the early morning of the next day, before it was completely light, Feng Tiance returned to the place where the hounds and shepherds spent the night. At this time, he was fully prepared and planned to explore all the way along the underground river.
When Wolf Seven had finished the breakfast he had just brought, he ordered, "Wolf Nine and Thirteen, you take all the shepherd dogs back to the Stone Castle, and Wolf One and Wolf Seven follow me." ”
The situation of the underground river was unknown, and he had only built a small wooden boat early in the morning, so he decided to take only two hounds into the cave, and the other sheepdogs would follow Wolf Nine and the two of them back first.
When he walked to the entrance of the cave, there was no one left, and Major Hong had already led the team to withdraw to the base overnight. There were still some traces of last night's explosion outside the cave entrance, but what he feared did not happen, and the cave remained unharmed and undamaged.
To be honest, he was really afraid that Major Hong would blow up the entrance of the cave when he was leaving.
This time it was Wolf One who took the lead, and Wolf Seven followed behind him, and one person and two dogs slowly walked in.
The cave was pitch black, and the section of the cave was relatively flat and narrow at the beginning. After walking for about five or six hundred meters, Feng Tiance could feel that the terrain was obviously declining.
He held a flashlight in his hand, irradiated it from time to time, and then quickly turned it off. With his super memory and eyes, walking in the dark is not a big problem.
"It's at least the size of two football fields, right?"
When the terrain became flat again, Feng Tiance estimated that he had come to the belly of the mountain. Turning on the flashlight and shining around, he saw that the space here was very large.
In the belly of the mountain, it seems that the heart has been removed, the high rock dome, the flat and wide ground, and an underground river quietly passes through this place, and flows into the cave.
Here, apart from this underground river, there is no other way out, and there is no place to hide people. No wonder Major Hong concluded that the poachers had escaped along the underground river.
"Wolf Seven, you guard the entrance of the cave, and Wolf Yi will follow me. ”
Feng Tiance felt that since those bastards chose to escape from here, they must be going downstream. Because going upstream, it was very physically exhausting, and the speed was slow, which did not meet the requirements of the situation at that time.
Walking to the underground river, he brought out the small wooden boat he had built in advance from the space and placed it on the shore. This small boat is just enough to seat him and two hounds, and no one more can fit it.
"Gone, Wolf Seven......"
A whistle called Wolf Seven over, and when the two hounds were on board, he pushed them into the water, and then jumped on them himself.
Perhaps because of the flat terrain in the belly of the mountain, the water flow in this section is relatively slow. He had no choice but to pick up the oars and make a few strokes to the left and right.
He fixed an emergency light in the bow of the ship, and he also had a miner's light on his head. At this time, the main thing to consider is the danger of sailing, and nothing else can only be considered for the time being.
When the boat entered the cave, the speed of the water increased slightly. Feng Tiance basically doesn't need to provide power anymore, he just needs to keep a good direction.
The boat kept moving forward, and in addition to the sound of water flowing in the underground cavern, there was occasionally some sound of squeezing on the stone walls on both sides.
Feng Tiance guessed that it might be a rat or some other creature in the cave. Not long ago, he had seen a few bats flying in front of the small wooden boat.
"There shouldn't be any big beasts in this underground river, otherwise those people wouldn't see this as a way out. ”
It is clear that to escape from the underground river, there must be a boat. It can be seen that those people have already been arranged here, and it is impossible to have time to temporarily build a ship on the way to escape. Moreover, they must know where this underground river leads, so they are sure to find a way out by following the river.
The cave is not wide and not high. Staying in it for a long time will make people feel very depressed.
But Feng Tiance was very excited, because he saw a lot of novel bryophytes on the stone wall. There are quite a few varieties that are not even introduced in textbooks.
He tried to get the wooden boat close to the stone wall, but it was difficult to gather the plants. The boat kept moving along the current, and it was not easy to stop, so I had to hug it from time to time.
There are not many bryophytes collected in hand, and there are a few of them. But that's enough, and now the focus is on the boat.
Putting the harvest into the backpack, the small wooden boat still returned to the center of the river. Time passed little by little, and the river turned a thousand times in the dark cave...... After turning a corner, a bright light finally appeared not far ahead.
