Chapter 370, Ruins Dawn (Finale)
"Ji Xiao. ”
"Ji Xiao. ”
"Ji Xiao, ......"
Ji Xiao: This name is so familiar, and the voice of this name sounds so familiar. However, it hurts, her whole body hurts, and that kind of pain makes her a little unconscious, she always feels that the name Ji Xiao is so familiar, and she is confused, but she always can't remember who Ji Xiao is.
However, she finally woke up, and the pain before was almost shocking, and now she finally woke up. Although the pain in my body was stronger and more vivid when I woke up, it was better to wake up after all. She opened her eyes and took a few big breaths, but the exhalation of too hard also made her feel a burning pain in her lungs, and the pain made her cough again and again, and a fishy sweet blood clot in her throat also spit out with the cough.
At this time, she felt a hand gently patting her vest and whispering comforting her in her ear, which made her feel very comfortable, but the name Ji Xiao ......
She actually remembered, but the identity corresponding to this name was already dead. Her current name is Isabella, and she is the leader of the young generation of Chinese gangsters in Rio de Janeiro and the daughter of a gang boss. Of course, the gang boss died a few years ago, and she replaced the daughter of the real gang boss at that time, and there are not many people who know her true identity.
"Ji Xiao, it doesn't matter if you can't admit this identity now, I know that you have a special task. I just want to tell you that my daughter is growing up, and she will be in the first grade of primary school in September. ”
She turned her head sharply, and saw a face that was so familiar and so missed, but even in her sleep, she never dared to call out her name.
"Li He. She only screamed softly, and there were no tears, but no tears did not mean that she had no sadness in her heart, and no tears did not mean that she was not happy to see him.
"Ji Xiao, our current situation is not good. Li He sat on the ground, hugged Ji Xiao in his arms, and said with a smile.
This sentence made Ji Yu take her eyes off Li He, and looked around, she saw a cold, damp stone wall, the optical fiber was very dark, and there was a bright light in only one direction. Such an environment is like a claustrophobic basement, or a damp cave, and outside the bright light, there is still a crackling sound, and the sound is also familiar, it is the sound of gunshots.
In addition to Li He, Ji Xiao also saw an equally familiar face, she felt that her throat was very dry, and it hurt to swallow her saliva, but she still looked at the delicate face and called softly: "Mulberry." ”
Sang Quinoa smiled, her eyes were full of tears, she squatted in front of Ji Liao, held one of her hands, and said, "Ji Liao, these years have been very hard, right? ”
Ji Xiao also smiled, she wanted to stand up, but she felt that she didn't seem to have any strength in her body, although she had only been kicked by the bandit a few times before, but the strength on the bandit's legs was too great, and some very hard materials were added to his shoes, especially the kick that hit her in the abdomen, which made her feel that her internal organs were all kicked and damaged. There is also pain in the bones, and there are probably fractures, but I can't tell which part it is, but there may be many places.
Then she was helped by Li He to sit up, which made her see that there was another person guarding the light, and that figure was also very familiar to her. She called Jin Zhu softly, and Zhao Jinzhu, who was deaf and clear-sighted, turned around and called Sister Ji Xiao and smiled at her. Zhao Jinzhu held an M4 carbine in her hand, guarding the hole, but her left arm was wrapped in a bandage, and fresh blood was still seeping out of the bandage.
Now is not the time to reminisce, in front of these people, Ji Xiao did not deny his identity, but just asked: "What is the situation now?"
Li He said: "You fell into a coma before, but it wasn't for long, maybe ten minutes. We were surrounded by drug dealers, my bodyguards were fighting the drug dealers outside, they had already lost two brothers, the remaining two were wounded, and we were running out of bullets, and the drug dealers could come in at any moment. Of course, outside the drug dealers, there are the police who are surrounding them, and maybe the drug dealers will surrender to the police or be annihilated by the police before they hurt us. If it weren't for the fact that we ourselves were at the center of this maelstrom, with only a thin line of death separating us, I would have found this scene dramatic. ”
"How did you get involved in this battle?" Ji Xiao frowned, Li He had often seen her frown like this before, she seemed to have a lot of depression that she couldn't solve, even when she laughed, she was always a little sad. She didn't know why Li He and they appeared here, she herself was mentally prepared for this situation, for facing death, but she never thought that Li He would also face such a situation at the same time as her.
Li He smiled and said, "I never believe that you are dead, and I always think that I will see you again one day." Although I didn't expect it to be in such a situation, maybe, this can be regarded as the arrangement of fate. I just came to Brazil to invest, drove a few cars, crossed the South American continent, ended in Rio, and then I met. I knew it was you when I passed by the side of the road before, and I wanted to catch up, but I calmed down and found that chasing you like that would cause you danger. Later, we changed direction, and Mulberry wanted to take some pictures of the ruins here, and no one expected to meet you here again. I didn't expect to meet you again, it would be such a situation. ”
Ji Xiao sighed and said: "At that time, I was really afraid that you would catch up regardless of it, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, I arranged my men to ambush at the first time, you said that if you really caught up, what should I do? At that time, I ordered to kill the vehicles that followed, in fact, I was gambling, betting that you should not chase after you, fortunately, I won the bet." ”
"This is your tacit understanding. Sang Quinoa smiled and said beside her, without any jealousy, and the tacit understanding between her and Li He has never been less. used to always think that as long as Ji Yu was still alive, she would make a good break with Li He, leave or stay, it would be neat. But now, she felt that none of that mattered too much, what mattered was that everyone was still alive, and besides, the world was so big, they all met so unbelievably, did they need to care about other things?
"Then has your identity been revealed?" asked Li He.
Ji Xiao thought for a while and said, "My people are all dead, if I can go back alive, I should still be able to continue to gain the trust of the elders." My mission this time was to arrange this deal, trapping the drug dealer nicknamed the coyote, but the bandit hired Pizarro's mercenaries in advance, and was able to get to the transaction place before the police, and there must have been his inner ghost on both sides of the gang and the police, so it's hard to say that my identity has not been recognized. ”
Li He laughed and said, "In this case, there is no point in you continuing to go undercover." ”
Ji Xiao frowned slightly and asked, "Sounds like you're happy?"
Li He said: "I don't know what your internal discipline is, but one obvious fact is that your identity may have been discovered, so if you go back undercover, you will be looking for death." This kind of undercover agent who knows that he is sent to death and will not be able to obtain useful information again, there will not be any superiors who are so sick that they must go back again, right? Then I will buy the police to report you as a hidden hero, as long as you show your face in public, you will never be able to go undercover again. ”
Sang Quinoa said: "You are the most bad idea, once Ji Xiao's identity is revealed, although he will not be sent undercover as you said, but it will also attract the pursuit of the gangs, right? Even if you want to quit, you can only quit quietly, you only think about the police, haven't you considered the gangs?"
Ji Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "In the past few years, because of the information I provided, the core members of the gang and several important drug dealers have been arrested by the police, and once my identity is exposed, I do have the possibility of being hunted down." But there is no point in saying this now, no matter what happens in the future, you have to live first. ”
Yes, they are not out of danger now, Li He only has two bodyguards left to fight outside, and there is no problem with their loyalty, but their strength is limited. It is even possible that in the face of death and despair, their loyalty will be in question. Now Cha Tusheng and the mercenaries are only a few dozen meters away from them, once Li He's bodyguards are killed or betrayed in battle, it is absolutely impossible to deal with those bandits and mercenaries just by relying on an M4 in Zhao Jinzhu's hand and a few pistols on their bodies.
That is, the distance between them and death is tens of meters.
Maybe it's not just death, once it falls into the hands of desperate bandits and mercenaries, a few girls can't escape the humiliation of those crazy bandits.
When they re-realized their current situation, no matter who they were, their expressions became unusually solemn.
"I wouldn't dare shoot myself. Sang Quinoa smiled miserably, looked at Li He, and said, "I don't have the courage to face death, so, Li He, if the bandits rush in, you must shoot me as soon as possible, and don't let me be insulted by them." ”
Li He was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, when it comes to that step, I will definitely not be soft, I will shoot at you, and then I will also commit suicide, if we want to die, we will die together." Having said that, I have a secret for you. I thought I'd never get a chance to tell the secret, but holding it like that often made me feel like I was about to suffocate. Since we are going to die, I will tell you this secret, and at least until I die, I can breathe a sigh of relief. ”
"Wait a minute," Sang Quinoa trembled a little at the thought that she might die here, maybe, no one really doesn't fear death, right? So when Li He said that she wanted to tell them a secret, the first thing she wanted to do was to sit next to Li He, let him hold Ji Xiao's other hand around her, and then exhaled and said, "Okay, you can say it." ”
Li He laughed, he hugged Ji Liao on his left and Mulberry on his right, and at this moment, both girls gently rested their heads on his chest.
Such a scene, to be honest, he has been thinking about it for a long time. I just never dreamed that it would be in such a situation. Smiling and smiling, he glanced at Zhao Jinzhu at the entrance of the cave and said, "Jinzhu, come over too." ”
Zhao Jinzhu looked back at them, a melancholy smile appeared on her face, she probably had a momentary heartbeat, but in the end she just shook her head gently and said, "No, my position is here." Brother Li He, I have to be honest with you, I like you very much, Sister Ji Xiao, Sister Sang Quinoa, I'm very sorry, I really like Brother Li He. However, everyone has their own place, and even if we die together, you still need a guardian on the Yellow Springs Road, right? ”
"You don't have to die. Li He felt that their mood was too low, although the current situation was a bit desperate, but perhaps, the police would arrive first? He held Ji Yu and Mulberry Quinoa in his left and right hands, and said with a smile: "Let's say okay first, as long as we can live, we will live together, none of you should leave, stay with me, I will buy you the most beautiful wedding dress, the most luxurious wedding, whether it is to buy a small island, or buy a farm, we will live together from now on and have a lot of children, how about it?"
Mulberry snorted and said, "It's so beautiful to think!"
Ji Xiao looked at her, smiled and said: "I don't want a small island in Brazil, I've been tired of staying in Brazil in the past few years, I want to go to Monaco and live in an eighteenth-century castle." ”
Neither of them agreed to Li He's request, but neither of them objected.
Li He laughed and said, "Then I won't tell you the secret, because I want to live! We all have to live, and I want to keep the secret until the day I die of old age! Jinzhu, what's going on outside? I don't like to suffocate here, let's rush out." ”
Outside, while they were talking, the gunfire stopped outside.
The gunfire stopped, the first possibility is that Li He's bodyguards have been wiped out, and the disparity in strength between the two sides is huge, and it is difficult to be optimistic that the remaining two of them have eliminated all the drug dealers and mercenaries. The second possibility is that the police have approached, and the drug dealers have turned around and fled in order to protect themselves, and they have turned around and fled. This is more likely, after all, even if the drug dealers kill them, they will not add any help to their escape, but will spend more time fighting them when the police are already approaching.
Zhao Jinzhu has been closely monitoring the situation outside at the entrance of the cave, and from her point of view, it can be seen that at least 3 of Li He's 4 bodyguards have been killed, and the remaining one will not be too optimistic. But they didn't see the drug dealers coming, the cave they were in was relatively high, and the view from the cave entrance was relatively good, and the drug dealers were unlikely to appear directly in front of them unless they climbed to the top of the mountain and descended vertically above their heads.
However, there is the sound of helicopters circling in the sky, and the biggest possibility is that the police are approaching and the drug dealers have fled.
Zhao Jinzhu picked up the gun and said, "I'll go out and have a look." ”
"Wait. Li He stopped her, walked over and took the M4 in her hand, and said undoubtedly: "I'll go, you take care of the two of them." Although Zhao Jinzhu has kung fu, as the only man here, Li He can't tolerate letting a girl risk her life to find out the truth outside at such a time.
Maybe from a rational point of view, it is more reasonable to let Zhao Jinzhu out, but if there is only reason and no blood, what is the point of such reason coming?
Zhao Jinzhu looked at Li He, nodded and handed over a magazine full of bullets in her hand to Li He, she didn't say anything, but suddenly opened her arms and hugged Li He tightly.
Although the injured left arm was open and painful, she still used all her strength to hug him, then kissed him on the face, let go of him, pulled out a Glock 18 with an extended magazine from under her armpit, and threw an M9 pinned to her belt to Ji Xiao. Mulberry had a glock of his own, and he had it in his hand at this time, so that the three girls, all with guns in their hands, followed closely behind Li He, and at this time they would not stop him from walking in front, but they could go with him.
No matter what lies ahead.
When Li He came out of the cave where they were hiding, he only felt that the world was quiet, the gunfire had stopped, the sound of the helicopter motor was fading away, the sun was sinking in the west, and the dusk of the day was coming.
Behind a few boulders, he saw Zhang Shaowen and Li Yi lying in a pool of blood, and they were still fighting until they died. This made Li He feel sad, they were not just his bodyguards, they had followed him from south to north for several years, and the relationship between them had long gone beyond the relationship between the boss and the employee. Li He is both sad and full of guilt, they are the pillars of the family, Wang Jun's family just added a son last year, if he hadn't followed him here, perhaps, their family was happy at this time.
Li He took a deep breath, he didn't want to excuse himself with the fact that since they were engaged in this profession, they would definitely face such a risk, their deaths were all related to him. As a person who has experienced death, he can only think that perhaps, behind their death, will also start again in another world.
The world was very quiet, and Li He couldn't believe that they were so safe and sound, but there was no longer any drug dealer in the four corners, only some sparse gunshots, and they went in the other direction.
All three girls followed, guns in their hands, and the four stood back to back, and indeed, no one was found in any direction that might threaten their safety.
Li He did not rush to leave, at this time he did not have any tools to bury his four men, but he and the three girls did it, put their bodies together, and picked up some larger stones to cover them, so as to prevent the wild beasts from coming out at night to eat them. Zhao Jinzhu had an injury to his left arm and could only be responsible for guarding, Ji Yu had multiple fractures and soft tissue contusions, so he couldn't help, only Sang Quinoa and Li He together, it took a long time to simply cover up the body.
By the time they had done all this, it was already dark.
This will undoubtedly cause them a lot of trouble, but no one will complain, and no one will feel that it is a waste of time. When it gets dark, they can only rely on the stars in the ruins to discern their direction, and before they enter the ruins, they park their cars outside in the dense forest and hide them, as long as they return to the car, they can leave the place, and they can also use the satellite phone on the car to get in touch with the outside world.
But whether it was Li He, Sang Quinoa or Zhao Jinzhu, they all clearly remembered that it took them no more than two hours from the time they stopped to the time they walked into the depths of the ruins, and according to their travel speed, they were no more than 10 kilometers away from the place where they parked. But they walked and walked and walked for hours in the ruins, and although they walked and stopped at a much slower pace, no matter how they walked, they had already walked more than 10 kilometers.
However, not to mention their cars, they didn't even see any sign of stepping out of the ruins.
As dawn approached, not even the stars could be seen, and the whole world was left with a darkness of shadows and shadows.
Li He and the others went to the ruins to take pictures and explore, and the equipment was complete, such as strong flashlights and fire tools, but in order to avoid some unnecessary dangers, they did not use lighting tools. Instead, they chose a huge rock that was more than two meters above the ground, and climbed up along the gap in the stone, where they waited for the dawn.
There are about 20 square meters on the big boulders, but they are quite flat, windy, and the temperature has dropped a lot, after all, it is winter in the southern hemisphere.
Li He said: "We have been from dusk to the present, five or six hours, and we haven't even walked out of this pile of rocks, can't it be a ghost hitting the wall?"
"Bah, baba!" Sang Quinoa hurriedly said: "Li He is talking as a fart, nothing, we are just tired of walking and resting, and we will go out as soon as it is dawn." ”
Ji Xiao remembered something, and said: "My slain subordinate is a descendant of an Indian, when we escaped before, he refused to enter this ruin, he said that this is an ancient forbidden place, and under these stone formations, some terrible evil spirits are imprisoned. ”
"Ji Xiao!" Sang Quinoa screamed, grabbed Li He's arm, and said coquettishly: "You are bullying me in the main room, you have to punish her, otherwise people will not follow." ”
When Ji Xiao talked about the forbidden place, she was quite empty, but she didn't expect Mulberry to be so coquettish, she felt that a very strange air around her instantly broke her power, and she laughed out loud.
Li He heard the sound of mulberry quinoa, and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean, let Ji Xiao become big?"
Sang Quinoa smiled and said, "I'm a concubine, since ancient times, a wife is not as good as a concubine, I don't compete with Ji Yu for the main house, but you have to spoil me more." ”
Hey, Mom, Li He was so happy that his nose was about to bleed. Happiness came so suddenly, he couldn't believe it.
"What about Jinzhu?" Ji Xiao looked at Sang Quinoa very proudly, and hit her and said: "A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, isn't Jinzhu the one who 'steals'? ”
Zhao Jinzhu's face was embarrassed, but fortunately, no one saw it in the night, she cut off the sleeve of her left arm with a dagger, changed her medicine again, and bandaged the wound again with the help of Mulberry Quinoa, she checked her pistol and said quietly: "You guys go to sleep, I'll keep an eye on it." ”
Laughing and laughing, making trouble, just to let everyone relax in a strange and unknown environment. As time passed, they fell asleep in a daze of fear, pain and exhaustion.
The one who slept the most deeply was Ji Xiao, in the past few years, she had never slept completely in one night, and when she woke up suddenly countless times, she had to ask herself who she was, and every time she woke up in a dream, she couldn't tell which one was the real herself. Now, she can finally sleep with peace of mind, no matter whether she is born or dead, there is nothing that will worry her anymore.
The one who slept the lightest was Zhao Jinzhu, it should be said that she basically didn't close her eyes, until the dawn in the ruins gradually spread out from the sky, she squinted her eyes, took a nap for a few minutes, and she woke up suddenly.
"Let's sleep a little longer. A familiar hand rested on her shoulder, and the more familiar voice said, "The dawn is breaking, the darkness is a thing of the past, and we can always get out." ”
Zhao Jinzhu looked at Ji Xiao and Mulberry Quinoa, who were curled up and leaning together and still asleep, thinking of Ji Liao's sentence "A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is better than stealing", he suddenly smiled naughtily, buried his head in Li He's arms, suffered for a few minutes, raised his head and said: "Okay, my position is the guardian, the sky is dawning, I want to watch everyone live well." ”
The sun came out, and Li He also breathed a long sigh of relief, although the forbidden place that Ji Xiao talked about was interrupted by mulberry with coquettishness and cuteness, but after experiencing the cycle of death, how dare Li He not be in awe of everything unknown in this world? Especially in the mysterious continent of South America, when the stars are hidden, he is really afraid that they will never be able to get out of this overgrown ruin.
Standing on the high stones, Li He and Zhao Jinzhu took advantage of the dawn to see from a distance the way out that they couldn't find in the dusk yesterday, and they saw a winding stream, and when they came yesterday, they drove the car from the stream to the ruins in the dense forest. At that time, it was also out of caution, because if you walked from the stream, you would not leave a wheel print.
After seeing the creek, he also saw the way back, saw the road, and rested for a while, and when the sun shone on his head, Ji Xiao woke up after sleeping enough, and the four of them walked out along the stream.
This time, after walking for more than an hour, they left behind the rubble and ruins, and successfully found the place where they parked.
"Okay, it's over, let's go home. Li He completely relaxed, he put the M4 backhand on his shoulder, and reached out to go to the car door, only to see a flash of cold light, if it wasn't for Zhao Jinzhu's eyes and quick pull him, his hand would have been cut off by a knife that came out of the shadows.
"That's right, you can go home, Lao Tzu will send you back to your hometown!"
The knife missed, but the hideous-faced Zha Tusheng still looked at these people with a cruel smile, laughed wildly and said: "Do you know? The fortune teller once said that my person is too hard, and no one can kill me, so when the Vietnam War was fought, a platoon went up and fell into an ambush, and the whole platoon died, so Lao Tzu crawled out of the pile of dead people." Since then, no one can help me, no one can help me. When I came to the ghost place of Brazil, it doesn't matter if it's the Jesus of the foreign devil or the god of the indigenous people, I can't do anything about Lao Tzu!"
Li He and they all stretched out their hands to draw their guns, but their movements were slow, after all, except for Ji Yu, who is a professionally trained policeman, Li He is a half-, Zhao Jinzhu is more accustomed to using cold weapons, and Mulberry has basically no combat effectiveness, their actions of pulling out guns are incomparable with Cha Tusheng's two subordinates, their hands have just touched the handle of the gun, and the two subordinates who have been following Cha Tusheng have already aimed the muzzle of the black hole at their vital point.
Cha Tusheng squinted his eyes and looked at Ji Liao, and said, "I knew early on that you had a problem, so I sent a message to the police, and set up this bureau to trick Lao Tzu into this ghost place and want to arrest Lao Tzu, you did it, right?"
Ji Xiao glanced at Tusheng coldly and said, "I can't talk about reporting information, I was originally a policeman." ”
Cha Tusheng laughed and said, "It turned out to be an undercover agent, but it was useless, and Lao Tzu still escaped." Those Interpols have been busy for a long time, and all they catch are those mercenaries, God doesn't accept me, no one wants to catch me. He laughed enough, squinted at the girls in front of him, showed a ** smile, and said: "Although the money is gone and the goods are gone, God is still good to me, and the women sent are still very good." ”
Li He looked behind Cha Tusheng, suddenly smiled, and said, "I have a secret, do you want to know?"
Cha Tusheng felt that Li He's eyes were a little strange when he looked behind him from time to time, and he wanted to look back to see what ghosts were behind him, but he felt that Li He was just bluffing, this young man looked handsome and tall, but in his eyes he was nothing. He glanced at Li He very contemptuously and said, "Say, make up a good story, Lao Tzu can make you die a little more happily." ”
Li He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, I am a person who has died, I want to tell you, don't talk too much, don't do bad things too much, you know, there are really gods in the sky watching you." With that, he turned around abruptly and threw the three girls standing beside him to the ground at the same time.
This action made Cha Tusheng suddenly realize something, and he really had a lot of experience in this regard. But no matter how experienced he is, he has already missed the best opportunity, and when he subconsciously wanted to see what was behind him, a cloud of blood mist suddenly burst out of his head. Two of his men also realized from the action of Li He knocking down the girls that there were gunmen behind them, but they were finally half a beat slower, and they were beaten into a sieve by a sweep of bullets.
They waited all night next to the vehicles left by Li He, thinking that they had finally waited for delicious prey, but they didn't know that the positioning devices installed in those cars allowed the police searching the battlefield to quickly find this place.
Li He and the three girls got up from the ground, facing the somewhat dazzling sunlight, and saw a slender figure carrying a sniper rifle coming from a short distance.
"Okay," Li He put his hands on Ji Xiao and Sang Quinoa's shoulders and said, "This time, we can really go home safely." Don't forget that we said before, we will all live together in the future. ”
"Three people together?"
"It's four, right?"
"No, now it looks like five people. ”
