Chapter 98: Rescue Team
"Boom, boom!"
There were several explosions in a row, and the powerful heat wave airflow hit the secret passage, shaking Yunkang's head and bleeding from his ears and nose.
Burning stones flew out of the cave, smashing his helmet with a thud, and the flames instantly burned his clothes, and then the gravel and sand fell, and half of his body was buried.
The hot stones were stuffed in the sand, all of them pressed on Yun Kang's body, so hot that he convulsed, and quickly twisted his body to shake off all the hot stones on his body.
The sound of explosions was still endless, and Yun Kang remembered that there were still some explosives and grenades in the cave, which caused explosions one after another, and the power was very amazing.
It took two minutes for the explosion to stop completely, and Yun Kang supported himself and coughed violently twice, causing him to bleed.
Yun Kang grinned, he is a cultivator, his body has been tempered thousands of times, even if he is injured, he will not be too strict, and he can recover quickly if he recupesces.
The secret passage was dark, and the light of the kerosene stove on Chen's side was faint and dim. Yun Kang shouted in a hoarse voice: "Brother Economy, are you okay?"
"Ahem, ahem, I'm fine. Chen Economy coughed a few times and shouted back.
The space in the secret passage was narrow, and Chen Jingye was two meters away from the entrance of the cave, and the explosion was small. And he was lying on his side, with his face on the wall, a large backpack pressed against his body, and a mask and helmet to protect his head, so he was not hurt at all.
Yun Kang heard that Chen Economy was fine, and immediately stretched out the palm of his hand, he had just picked up a string of spirit stones, and he hadn't had time to take a closer look.
It's the spirit stone That's right, Yun Kang confirmed it a few times, and couldn't help laughing twice, he didn't know how long it had been since he had seen the spirit stone, and his mood at the moment was simply indescribable.
Excited, excited, happy, hopeful, he just took a Peiyuan Pill, as long as he has a spirit stone, he can break through the level with all his strength. Not only the second layer of qi refining, but if there are enough spirit stones, it is possible to break through two layers in a row.
This explosion made him a blessing in disguise, Yun Kang's eyes were closed, he held the spirit stone tightly in his hand, and only felt that the rich spiritual energy penetrated into the pores from the palm of his hand, penetrated into the meridians of the whole body, and finally introduced into the dantian, which instantly fused with the true qi and slowly transformed into the true yuan qi.
The spirit stone is much easier to use than the jade and the vitality stone, Yun Kangqiang suppressed his excitement and calmed himself down, now is not the time to cultivate, and after getting out of danger, it is not too late to slowly absorb the spiritual energy.
Yun Kang used his divine sense to take a cursory look at the spirit stones, there were six in total, and they were strung together with gold threads, each of which was as big as a quail egg.
The six spirit stones were of high grade, and the more he looked at them, the more he was pleased, using these to break through the second layer of qi refining, and then improve the power of his divine sense, it was more than enough.
Yun Kang solemnly put the spirit stone into the dragon swallowing ring, and when the poor strange beast saw that there was a spirit stone, it also "buzzed" and became restless, extremely happy and jubilant.
"Yunkang, how are you?" Chen Economy heard the explosion stop, so he raised his head, shook off the rubble that fell on his body, got up and turned his head and asked.
Yunkang replied with an "um", "I'm not hurt." "Stand up, dust off your body, and look up. I saw that the two high walls were sandwiched into a narrow passage, and the top could not be seen by the sight, and it was dark everywhere, and the wall was not high.
The spirit stone fell from the top of his head, and Yun Kang was puzzled in his heart, why there were spirit stones on the high wall, and they were hung in a string with gold silk threads, which obviously had some special use.
He thought to himself, if only he could climb up and see what was going on.
The thought was just a move, Yun Kang forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart, the most critical thing at the moment was to find an exit and send these people out safely. Especially Ge Fengdu, who was injured very severely, Yunkang promised to escort him away, and this time he would never break his promise.
"Let's go out first and meet them. Yunkang said to Chen Economy.
It's very unsafe in this secret passage, there may be witch puppet activities nearby, and Yunkang is also worried about the others, I don't know what will happen to the situation outside after they go out.
The two of them didn't gossip much, and kept moving out along the secret passage, and the road behind them was very smooth, Yun Kang secretly rejoiced, fortunately, the explosion did not collapse the exit, otherwise they would be blocked in the secret passage.
Soon the two turned to a low hole, and after climbing a distance, they got out from under the stone statue of Zhang Guolao riding a donkey.
"They're out!" a woman's voice cried. Yun Kang could tell it was Tang Li, her voice was full of joy, and she obviously cared about them.
Yun Kang relaxed slightly, it seemed that nothing happened to everyone.
Everyone stood in the wide passage outside the entrance of the secret cave, holding flashlights and searchlights in their hands, staring nervously at the entrance of the cave, and immediately breathed a long sigh of relief when they saw that the two of them came out safe and sound.
They heard two loud explosions just now, which shook the stone walls on both sides, how could the flesh and blood body withstand such a violent explosion, so they were all worried about Yunkang.
At this time, they were all happy to see that he was not injured. Tang Yao's brothers and sisters came forward to ask about the situation, and Yunkang briefly described the situation at that time, saying that he used a kerosene stove to light a fire and concealed the matter of fire resistance.
Everyone who listened to it admired Yunkang's wit and ability, detonating the detonator in the cave, and leaving himself unscathed, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
Tang Li was most worried that the witch puppet would catch up, and hurriedly asked him, Yun Kang said: "The witch puppet in the cave should have blown up, there may be outside there, everyone should be careful." ”
Yun Kang turned his head to look left and right, and found that in addition to these familiar people, there was another group of people in the team, wearing the black uniform of the task force.
The leader had a stern expression, looked at Yun Kang a few times, was a little impatient, frowned and said, "You are so troublesome, it's a waste of time, evacuate quickly, don't delay your work." As he spoke, he instructed his team members to bring their equipment and find an exit to leave the underground passage.
Yun Kang didn't know who this person was, but he also guessed that it was a rescue team sent by the task force. This person's attitude was very unfriendly, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
He looked up at Ge Feng, who was being carried on a stretcher by two team members, covered in white gauze bandages. The pole kept by his side, and from time to time he asked with concern, "Captain, how do you feel?"
Seeing that the task force bandaged Ge Fengdu's wounds, Yun Kang was a little relieved, and everyone tried their best to find the exit, Ge Fengdu should not have to worry about his life, and he would soon see the light of day.
"Yunkang, the rescue team of the Task Force, the one who took the lead is called Xing Hao, who is at the same level as Ge Fengdu, and is a deputy captain. Tang Yao walked up to him, whispered in a low voice, and then snuggled to the side, his expression was very unnatural.
Just now they waited for Yunkang to come out, Xing Hao said that they were wasting time, the explosion was so violent, the people inside must have been killed. If it weren't for the insistence of a few of them, and Ge Fengdu refused to leave first, the task force would have evacuated long ago.
Yun Kang saw what Tang Yao meant, and Captain Xing of the rescue team was not very good with them. He nodded, already realizing that the atmosphere of the two groups was not right, and frowned and said, "Since we are all here, let's go quickly, and talk about something when we go out." ”
Xing Hao's first impression was that he was shrewd, and he was a little more arrogant than Ge Feng. Yun Kang secretly compared, Ge Fengdu has a good temper, but he looks more pleasing to the eye than Xing Hao.
As soon as Yun Kang spoke, these people all picked up their backpacks and acted according to his orders, but they were more distant from the task force.
Xing Hao snorted, deliberately made a strange tone, and said, "The advisor invited by Captain Ge is really not simple. Then he took his men and walked straight ahead.
Yun Kang frowned, suppressing the anger in his heart, not wanting to conflict with him. He glanced at the team on his side and saw that Tang Yao's brother and sister were in good condition, but they were tired and tired, and there was no big problem with a little skin trauma.
Shen Duo and Chen Jingye are fine, Yan Fucha swallowed Pei Yuan Dan, and suppressed it with a few slag honey pills before, as long as he left here immediately and poured a few bottles of liquor to induce vomiting, there would be no major incident.
There were also Jiang Rongzhan and two warriors with them, these three people were more seriously injured, and their shoulders and thighs were pierced by the claws of the witch puppet through several holes, although they had been bandaged, it was very inconvenient to walk.
Jiang Rongzhan obviously relied on Yunkang very much, and looked back at him from time to time, his eyes showed anticipation, and he stopped talking.
Yun Kang glanced at him, the two still have an old account that has not been settled, so they will ease the relationship for the time being, and then worry about other things when they go out.
Several task forces helped the three of them forward, and Yun Kang followed behind everyone, taking out two honey pills from the Dragon Swallowing Ring and eating them.
His own arms and body were injured, and the bleeding stopped, but the pain became more and more intense, and after taking the honey pill, he secretly breathed and breathed, and the pain was lessened a little.
He was glad that the people around him had picked up a small life, but the power of the witch puppet was indeed terrifying, except for a few of them who escaped, the rest of the warriors almost all died in the cave.
The heaviest loss this time was the task force, Yun Kang sighed, after Ge Fengdu went back, I am afraid that life will not be easy.
The group walked forward with their heads bored, no one said a word, and the strong flashlight illuminated a passage of the black hole, and only the sound of "crackling" footsteps could be heard.
Yunkang turned his head to look left and right, only to find that a thin wire was pulled at the side of the wall, and the rescue team members were walking along the wire.
He immediately understood that after the team came down from the deep hole, they found that the compass was out of order, and they were worried that they would not be able to find their way back, so they came up with a way to mark it with a thin wire.
They pulled a wire from the hole they came down and extended it into the passage, and then sent someone to guard the hole, so that they would not get lost when they went out.
This idea should have been thought up by Xing Hao, Yun Kang scanned him with his divine sense from behind, and saw that he was not too tall, and his body was in good shape, which was a whole circle smaller than Ge Fengdu's burly figure. Both of them are vice captains, but Xing Hao is obviously more agile and meticulous than Ge Fengdu.
Yunkang looked at the task force brought by Xing Hao again, and they acted in unison, and almost did not speak, only obeying Xing Hao's orders.
These people are very disciplined, their movements are crisp and neat, and they have the feeling of a special forces elite.
In contrast, the players under Ge Fengdu are weak, always gossipy, and very timid. And Ge Fengdu has no majesty at all in front of them, and the relationship between them is not like the relationship between the captain and the team members, but like buddies and brothers.
Yun Kang observed it for a while, and suddenly realized that each detachment of the task force was also different.
At this time, he glanced to the side and saw Yan Fucha and Shen Duo walking together. Shen Duo looked preoccupied, and Yan Fucha reached out to stroke his chest, his steps were a little fluttering, and he seemed to be very uncomfortable.
Neither of them stepped forward to speak from Yunkang's escape from the danger of the explosion, they obviously had some kind of tacit understanding and deliberately avoided him.
Yunkang felt an unspeakable disappointment in his heart, and a kind of heartache of betrayal by his friend. He also made up his mind, this is the last time to cooperate with Shen Duo and defect to the battlefield, one time is enough, and it can't happen a second time.
As for Yan Fucha, this kid, he has been playing tricks with him from the beginning, and there are not a few words in his mouth that are true. After going back, he was handed over to Yan Ruoxuan, and the two would never cross paths again.
What is the relationship between Shen Duo and Yan Fucha, Yun Kang has no interest in knowing anything now, and in the future, Yangguan Road and Dumuqiao will go their own way. The three of them working together to overcome difficulties was regarded as a dream, which never happened.
Yunkang didn't want to think about these depressing things anymore, this time he came to the bottom of the Xianweng Cave to take a walk, although it was dangerous, but it was not without gain, at least he got a Peiyuan Dan, and he also picked up a few high-grade spirit stones.
He looked up at the high wall beside him, the bright light of the flashlight shone all the way to the top of the high wall, and he thought to himself that there must be some secret hidden on it, and after sending these people out safely, he would have to think of coming back again.
The height of this high wall is at least 100 meters, and how to climb to the top of the wall has become a problem.
"Team Xing, there is a situation. The task force at the front suddenly shouted.
Yun Kang was startled, and hurriedly probed his divine senses out, only to see Xing Hao pull out his pistol, pull open the safety bolt with a "click", and ordered: "All on alert, prepare your weapons." ”
At his command, all the task force members drew their pistols and grenades, staring warily ahead.
Yun Kang frowned, the walls on the left and right sides were smeared with asphalt glue mixed with yellow phosphorus, all of which were flammable substances, and when bullets were fired, it was easy to wipe the walls and catch fire. Moreover, the passages are connected in rings, and once the flames are raised, the entire passage will burn in an instant, and they cannot avoid it at all.
He coughed and couldn't help but say, "Captain Xing, the walls on both sides are flammable, you tell your subordinates to be careful, try not to shoot, and grenades can't be used." ”
Tang Yao didn't know that the wall was flammable, and when they heard Yun Kang say this, they all trembled for a moment, and when they got closer to the wall, they were really smeared with black oily things, and said in surprise: "There seems to be an unknown paint on it, is it easy to catch fire?"
Yun Kang nodded and said, "If these walls really burn, we will all become roast pigs." ”
Several people looked at each other, and suddenly felt frightened.
Xing Hao turned his head to look at him, his eyes were very disdainful, and he said in a sharp tone: "I know that Ge Feng and Captain Gao recommended you to be the special adviser of the Task Force, but the headquarters has not yet given the instructions, so you have no right to express your opinion." ”
He then snorted coldly and said angrily: "You so-called civilian advisers have no real skills, and they are just chaotic commands, causing heavy losses to the task force. If it weren't for Ge Fengdu's unauthorized recommendation of consultants, we wouldn't have sacrificed so many people. This happened once before, and more than 100 members of the team were killed in the line of duty, and it was the special adviser who killed them. ”
Xing Hao looked down on Yun Kang very much, thinking that he was just a martial artist, and he had been arrested by the Task Force, if he didn't have any personal relationship with Ge Fengdu, how could he be a special adviser.
But that's okay, all the team members under Ge Fengdu are dead, and the captain of the detachment is already dead in name, even if the headquarters doesn't punish him, he will no longer be entrusted with important tasks. And this mission, Captain Gao will also be implicated, and maybe he won't be able to keep his position as captain.
The corners of Xing Hao's mouth hooked up a cold smile, and when several vice captains competed for the position of captain, he had the greatest possibility of promotion with his excellent performance in recent years.
Xing Hao's words caused Tang Li's anger to stand up and say, "Xing Hao, what do you mean, you have killed more than a hundred team members, how can you put the responsibility on the special adviser." My father and Brother Liang have not come back, and their lives and deaths are unknown now, why they said they killed them. ”
Yun Kang was a little surprised when he heard this, Tang Li meant this, it seemed that her father used to be an adviser to the Task Force, and he had an accident because of a mission.
Xing Hao turned his head to look at Tang Li, and said lightly: "Miss Tang, Ling Zun is very admirable, he has been our special adviser for more than 20 years, and he has never made a mistake, and the person I am talking about is surnamed Liang." After a pause, he continued, "But it's been more than a year since this happened, so there's no need to bring it up again. ”
After speaking, Xing Hao turned to look at Yunkang, and said in a strange manner: "Ge Fengdu will really recommend a consultant, he recommended a person surnamed Liang, we lost more than a hundred brothers, he recommended you, and the task force sacrificed more than twenty more team members." If I listened to your opinion, it is difficult to say whether even these people would have to be buried together. ”
Yun Kang suddenly surged up with anger, clenched his two fists, and really wanted to go up and give it to him. But there is no point in doing it at this moment, and he does have to pay some responsibility for the death of the task force.
Xing Hao didn't look at him, turned his head and ordered: "Prepare all the weapons, if you find anything abnormal, shoot and shoot." ”
