Chapter 16: The Giant Salamander

Lin Qingshan ordered the three team members to immediately lead Liu Hu's body to set off, return the same way, return to the car base camp, and then transport it to the 27 border station as quickly as possible, and use the helicopter there to take Liu Hu's body back to the Siberian Tiger base camp.

And everything that happened here, Lin Qingshan also told the headquarters truthfully by satellite phone. The head of the headquarters did not express any opinion, but only said that Liu Hu's body would be transported back as soon as possible, just that everything was arranged by Li Xun.

The three of them came out of the queue, carried Liu Hu on a stretcher, and set off immediately. Director Liu chased after him with a sad face at this time: "I, I want to leave with them." ”

Lin Qingshan had no opinion, Li Xun didn't stop him, he just said: "I have never stopped you from leaving." ”

Director Liu hesitated for a moment, stomped his feet with a wry smile: "Oh, oops, forget it, you guys go quickly." I followed Mr. Lee's footsteps. I'm not going back, damn it, people are dead and birds are facing the sky, don't cowardly. ”

Li Xun smiled.

Lin Qingshan woke up from his grief and asked with tears in his eyes, "Mr. Li, what kind of monster is that?"

Li Xun looked at the river and said quietly: "Giant salamander." ”

"What's big?" Lin Qingshan and the others were at a loss, what hit you?

Li Xun repeated: "Giant salamanders, there are also people called baby fish. ”

Hearing this name, everyone was still a little dazed, but Xu Qianyun exclaimed: "Doll fish? Is that a baby fish? It still eats people?"

Lin Qingshan was puzzled: "What is the baby fish? ”

Xu Qianyun explained: "The salamander is an amphibian salamander, distributed all over the country, as well as in deep mountains and streams, and its cry is like a child's cry, so it is called a baby fish." I only heard that this kind of animal meat is very delicious and expensive, and it costs almost more than 2,000 yuan per pound of meat when it is the most popular. ”

"More than 2,000 yuan a catty? What kind of meat is this?" Lin Qingshan and the others exclaimed, it was really hard to imagine who could afford to eat more than 2,000 yuan a pound of meat. Tiger meat isn't that expensive.

Xu Qianyun ignored Lin Qingshan and asked, "However, I haven't heard that baby fish still eats people." ”

Li Xun laughed and said, "How do you know that it doesn't eat people? It tells you that it doesn't eat people?"

Xu Qianyun choked, her face turned red, and she didn't speak.

Li Xunzheng said: "The baby fish in the deep mountains eats people. First of all, giant salamanders are not the slow-moving animals you might think. Its true face is fierce by nature, and it is extremely vindictive, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is more ferocious than snakes, and it also has a vengeance. Moreover, it is cunning. Deep in the mountains, giant salamanders often come ashore at midnight to dig up the corpses of dead people in mass graves to eat. ”

Lin Qingshan and the others shrank their necks, imagining that scene, they felt very disgusting.

Li Xun continued: "At that time, I saw that there were blood stains on this bridge, and I thought there were crocodiles in this river. However, this mountain really gave me too many surprises, I didn't expect the baby fish here to grow so big. ”

Lin Qingshan said bitterly: "Then what now?"

Li Xun pointed to the iron cable and said, "Continue to build the bridge and continue to cross the river." ”

"Huh?"

Everyone was shocked, why did they have to cross the river?

Looking at the turbulent river again, I only feel that there is a hidden danger of wireless below, and after today, many people here may have the sequelae of fear of the river.

Before, they were dissatisfied with Li Xun's caution, and felt that Li Xun had crossed all the rivers with such ink, what could there be in the river?

Now I know that what Li Xun is afraid of is not the turbulent river at all, but the monster hidden under the turbulent river.

Now that a person has died, everyone has realized how dangerous this mountain is, and they no longer dare to underestimate this mountain and this river.

I used to think that crossing a river was a big deal. Now I feel that crossing a river is like dancing at the ghost gate.

Li Xun said: "The giant salamander is very vindictive, its size is too big, my two arrows can only hurt it, but it does not kill it." So, from now on, we have to be extremely vigilant, it may keep following us, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. ”

Lin Qingshan had a bitter face: "Will it retaliate? ”

Li Xun looked at him and said seriously: "Do you think that if we are on the shore, it will not retaliate? Let me repeat, it is an amphibian, whether it is on the shore or in the water, as long as it targets us, it will definitely follow and retaliate." Now that it has just been injured twice and does not dare to come out of the water again, it is the best time to cross the river. If we miss it, it will be even more dangerous if we cross the river when it has eased up. ”

"Why do we have to cross the river, not necessarily the big snake crossed the river, we must cross the river. What if the ultimate goal is on our side?"

Director Liu said bitterly.

Li Xun pointed to the Panlong Mountain Range in front of him and said, "I suspect that there is a snake cave in that mountain. ”

After that, Li Xun no longer explained, but said coldly: "Continue to pave the bridge, move quickly!"

Lin Qingshan hesitated for a moment, hung a safety rope on himself, and said, "This time, I will pave the bridge." ”

turned to look at Li Xun and said sincerely: "Mr. Li, please, help me cover." ”

"Captain!"

"Captain, I'll go. ”

"Captain, don't go. ”

The members of the Northeast Tigers Special Operations Brigade came out one after another, scrambling to ask for them to go there instead of letting Lin Qingshan take the risk.

But Lin Qingshan, how could he be? A brother had already died, and he would rather die himself than let his brothers suffer casualties. forcibly stopped everyone, hung up two safety ropes, hugged a pile of planks, and went on the chain bridge without saying a word.

Li Xun stood at the head of the bridge, took the bow and wound it, always observing the river, and the arrow never left the direction at Lin Qingshan's feet.

But this time, Lin Qingshan's luck was very good, and he successfully paved the bridge. The two cables have been completely turned into a chain bridge for walking, and the river is always calm.

Li Xun didn't relax even a little, saw Lin Qingshan waving on the other side, and listened to the walkie-talkie here: "You can pass".

Immediately commanded: "Work in pairs, one in front of the other, five meters apart." Run through quickly, without any lingering. ”

"Yes!"

Listening to Li Xun's order, he immediately lined up two big-headed soldiers, packed up his equipment, and immediately ran onto the chain bridge.

I only heard the sound of the chain shaking constantly, and I saw that the compound bow used by Li Xun was always aimed at the river under the feet of the two warriors. A moment later, a voice came over the intercom: "Next batch." ”

At this time, Director Liu hurriedly said: "I'm me, I'll go first." It's a little relieved in the past, anyway, sooner or later, it's better to pass it early. ”

Li Xun waved his hand, which was considered approval. And Xu Qianyun also stood up, and she and Director Liu worked in pairs.

The chain shook and the two crossed the river unharmed.

Then, everything went smoothly, and the soldiers continued to pass in batches, and soon, Li Xun was the only one left on the shore here.

looked at the scene, picked up his horn bow and carried it on his back, holding Lin Qingshan's compound bow in his hand, and wound the bow. Jumping onto the iron cable, stepping on an iron chain, while aiming underwater, while quickly stepping on the iron chain to pass.

Li Xun didn't dare to walk on the bridge deck, the bridge deck was blocked by wooden planks, although it was stable, but he couldn't see the sudden movement underwater. Although it is dangerous to step on the iron cable, it is the safest for him, and he can always pay attention to the surrounding movements.

When he first arrived in the middle of the river, Li Xun's eyes narrowed and saw a head peeking out a hundred meters away from the river. It's that giant salamander.

The giant salamander was a hundred meters away, its head only surfaced a little, and it was looking at Li Xun from afar with a pair of resentful eyes. Seeing Li Xun's view, he immediately dived.

"Poof"

Li Xun's arrow penetrated the barrier of 100 meters of space, inserted into the water where the giant salamander was, and missed, it had already escaped.

After stepping on the shore, Li Xun looked in that direction and sneered: "Interesting, is it to say, you won't let me go?" ”
