Chapter 253: Danger lurks
Seeing the "dragon water" that was tightly held in the palm of his hand, Lu Yang suddenly felt a feeling of nausea hit him, and suddenly reached out to shake it off.
Remembering that Old Man Liao said that he would throw it into his mouth next time, he quickly jumped away from this group of old madmen, and secretly made up his mind that after returning to the base, he must secretly take photos of these old things, and see if they dare to fix people casually in the future.
Old man Zhang's name is Zhang Jiazhong, old man Liao's name is Liao Shouwei, and among the twelve people in the group, there is an old man named Su Weiyun, but he was sleeping the whole time and did not participate in this farce.
These three people are all from the three battalions of the strange company, and they belong to the masters in the eyes of ordinary people, but the temperament of this master is really incredible.
After more than four hours of flight, the plane slowly landed at Nanyu Airport.
The Southern Regions is the border city of China, adjacent to several countries, and across the Nanchi Mountain located in the west of the Southern Regions City, you can directly reach the N and D countries. The convenience of the region also breeds crime, and smuggling is very rampant here, especially gun smuggling and drug smuggling.
After getting off the plane, Lu Yan drove a business car out of nowhere and pulled the group to a mountain villa not far from the airport.
Nanyu is a multi-ethnic city, the whole city is full of exotic customs, even the houses are mostly antique buildings, except for the city center, there are few modern buildings, basically wooden buildings.
Although the wooden house is simple and elegant, fire has always been the biggest hidden danger, and the fire prevention measures in Nanyu City are obviously not so perfect, so many people feel that this wooden house is not as strong as a brick house.
The villa is built on the mountain, and there is no signboard, it looks like a large farmhouse, and it is not at all obvious that it is actually a mountain villa for entertaining guests.
There is only one building around, and because the southern region is mountainous, there is no flat land in this vicinity at all, and at a glance, there are endless green hills.
At this time, it was almost noon, and the grass and trees on the mountain were full of trees, and the scene of strange rocks was fully revealed.
However, the weather is a little gloomy today, the sky is gray and like evening, it seems that it has just rained last night, and the whole air has a little moist smell. And the layer of white mist lifted from the top of the mountain also became more fairy because of the gray sky, and the villa with the green mountain behind it was dotted like a fairy palace.
Splash of ink is picturesque.
"I'll eat here at noon today, Lu Yang, you go to the back to find Anada first, and ask her to help us prepare more bamboo rice, preferably with a little more hare meat." Lu Yan walked into the villa with the group and said to Lu Yang, who was walking in front to arrange an order.
Lu Yang said that he knew, there have been frequent accidents on the border in the past two years, and he and Lu Yan have been to the Southern Regions many times, and they are familiar with this area.
Lu Yan said a few more dishes of the Southern Domain, all of which were special dishes that were usually difficult to eat in other places, and if it weren't for the mission, it was estimated that he would not have been able to eat such a delicacy.
Thinking about it this way, there are actually many benefits to doing their job.
He turned his head sideways and said to Lu Shan and Ye Gang: "Although the hare meat here is not as delicious as the one eaten at your house, it is also a must-have compared to other places. I don't pretend to be public and private, even if I personally invite this meal today, we can have a lot of courtesy in the future. ”
Lu Yan is not a person who pays attention to the desire of the tongue, but this is only due to his pickiness, and this innate pickiness makes him miserable. He is clearly a rich body and a poor life.
After a meal in the courtyard, he was surprised to find that he had a soft spot for farmhouse flavors, the highest level of cuisine he had ever eaten, and which he still remembers to this day.
Invest in the peach, repay Qiong Yao, and only by coming and going can the normal communication between the two sides be maintained. Lu Yan decided to take this opportunity to invite Lu Shan and Ye Gang to have a meal, which was also considered a return to the ceremony of eating in the courtyard, he knew that the rural custom was "you invite me to come, I invite you, everyone invites and invites", this time he invited a guest, then next time Lu Shan will have a reason to invite him to the courtyard again.
Lu Yan's face was silent, he had already made a calculation in his heart, with a modest smile on his face, his words and deeds showed a trace of elegance and calmness, such Lu Yan had made Lu Shan unable to distinguish who it was.
After entering the gate of the villa, there is a large garden, which is full of flowers, rockery and flowing water, and there are small pavilions and pavilions, which reveal a simple and classical charm from the inside to the outside.
Wisps of sweet fragrance came from the garden, and there were countless colorful butterflies fluttering on the purple and red flower branches, and their light bodies wandered among the flowers.
Seeing this beautiful scenery, Lu Shan suddenly sighed, the Southern Regions is really a good place, the four seasons are like spring, and the flowers are long. Compared with the capital, there is a lot more fresh air.
Taking a deep breath, she suddenly felt relaxed, I don't know if it was her illusion, she always felt that the air here seemed to be a little different from other places, as if it was ...... With a little aura?
She looked at the old man Su Weiyun, who had not said a word the whole time, without a trace, Su Weiyun was wearing a cyan robe, her face was ruddy, but her hair was all white. His expression was a little indifferent, his spirit was not as good as Rong Lao's, and he looked older than Rong Lao's, but it could be seen from his ruddy complexion that this person was well versed in maintenance.
Su Weiyun glanced at the entire villa, and the surprise that suddenly flashed in his eyes did not escape Lu Shan's eyes, it seems that this villa is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Lu Shan paused and walked to Ye Gang's side, Ye Gang glanced at her and asked in a low voice, "Hungry, I still have a few packets of jerky here, you pad your stomach first." ”
After saying this, he took out a few packets of beef jerky wrapped in transparent film from the backpack he was carrying with him and stuffed them into Lu Shan's hands.
After more than four hours of flying, it was not good for him to give her things in full view of everyone on the plane, and if he was robbed by Lu Yang, who did not treat himself as an outsider at all, wouldn't it be a waste?
Now that he is quietly stuffing it to Lu Shan, others will not feel strange even if they see it, anyway, it will be time to eat soon, and they will be able to hold it for a while.
"I'm not hungry, you can eat." Lu Shan shook his head and stuffed the beef jerky back into Ye Gang's hand.
She rolled her eyes, and saw that no one noticed her here, so she approached Ye Gang and lowered her voice and said, "How far is this place from that place?" ”
The "that place" in Lu Shan's mouth refers to the place where Ye Gang carried out the mission last time, and it is also the place where their entire team got an adventure.
Ye Gang thought that Lu Shan just wanted to know more about the situation, so he recalled the map and said, "Yuan, if you want to pass from here, it is estimated that you will not be able to reach your destination in a day." However, the straight-line distance is actually not far, you can see the big mountain behind you, directly through the mountain, it is estimated that half an hour is enough. This is the approximate location, and you have to ask Company Commander Lu for details, he must have accurate data there. ”
Lu Yang is the company commander of the technical company, and before he set off, he had prepared the relevant data and materials of all the missions. Although he came in a hurry this time, because he and Lu Yan were no strangers to the Southern Regions, and the end point of this mission was the place where the second battalion had carried out the mission, the relevant data was also detailed.
Lu Shan is different from ordinary women who have a bad sense of direction, on the contrary, she is born with a strong sense of direction.
She looked at the green hills behind the villa, and under the gray sky, even her vision became blurred, but this did not hinder her judgment. Starting from the mountain villa and going straight through the middle of the mountain, it is the center of the Nanchi Mountain Range, and it is also a place that she was very familiar with in her previous life.
It was there that she unleashed the Space Blade ability and used a bloody twist to reverse a situation that had been cornered by the betrayal of Ah Jin.
The Nanchi Mountains span six countries and regions, the largest of which is China, but its unique geographical location makes most of the Nanchi Mountains a true "three-regardless zone".
In the center of the Nanchi Mountains, there are countless dark forces hidden, because of its complex geomorphological situation and extremely inconvenient traffic environment, so that the governments of any neighboring countries have not yet figured out the situation inside.
Huaxia had negotiated with the governments of country N and country D many times, and put forward a proposal to jointly control the security of the surrounding areas of the Nanchi Mountains, but for various reasons, no cooperation was reached. Because of this, there are frequent incidents on the border of the southern region, and neither the state nor the government can fundamentally and thoroughly solve the problem of the border of the southern region, and unless a major event occurs that violates the interests of many countries, this problem will always exist.
Lu Shan thought back to the major events related to the Southern Regions border in her previous life, and she knew that since the destruction of most of the drug processing factories and some mysterious laboratories that did not know what they were doing research, the security environment on the southern border had been greatly improved. Since then, the Southern Regions City has finally ushered in its prosperity and peace.
She pondered as she walked, not noticing the oncoming group.
Walking in the front is a middle-aged couple, the man is 1.7 meters tall, his skin is slightly dark, his facial features are weekly, and his whole body is full of majesty.
And the wife standing next to the man is a middle-aged beauty, wearing a national costume, looking beautiful and mysterious. Her beautiful eyes are looking forward to it, and she naturally exudes a sense of charm and nobility, obviously her background is not bad, and after getting married, she is pampered by her husband, which can have such a complex temperament.
Walking beside the middle-aged beauty was a woman slightly older than her, also wearing a national costume, and there was a trace of indelible sadness on her face similar to the middle-aged beauty.
Lu Yan walked in the front, and met the middle-aged couple unexpectedly, and both of them showed surprised looks.
The middle-aged man's eyes flickered, and he stared at Lu Yan in disbelief, obviously very surprised by his sudden appearance.
"Battalion Commander Lu, you, you actually came to Southern Regions City, I don't know when you arrived?" After being surprised, the middle-aged man hurriedly took his wife's hand and stepped forward to greet Lu Yan, with a sense of respect between his demeanor and tone.
Lu Yan bowed slightly at him and said, "Master Liu, Mrs. Liu, you are also here for dinner?" ”
The middle-aged man is Liu Qun, the eldest disciple of Rong Lao, and the beautiful woman next to him is his wife Yali, Yali is from the Southern Regions, and Liu Qun is accompanying her home today to save relatives.
"Yes, tomorrow Ali's mother will have her birthday, and we are coming back to celebrate the birthday of the visitor. Today, Ali's cousin also arrived in the Southern Regions, and I just invited her here for a light meal. Battalion Commander Lu, you haven't eaten yet, have you? In this way, you finally came to the Southern Regions, I am also half of the Southern Regions, today's meal will be up to me to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, please Battalion Commander Lu give me this opportunity. Liu Qun said sincerely.
Liu Qun is now in charge of the entire sect, very beautiful, even the mayor of the Southern Regions treats him with great courtesy, how have you ever seen him treat a young man with such a respectful expression?
Liu Qun's wife Yali's eyes moved, and she suddenly secretly guessed Lu Yan's identity.
In fact, Yali blamed Liu Qun, although Rong Lao was a member of the third battalion of the base, but Liu Qun was not qualified to know about this matter, he only knew that Rong Lao was now serving in the army, and his status was not low. And this battalion commander Lu is Rong Lao's top boss.
Let's ask, with the status of Rong Lao, he can be his top boss, what kind of character is that?
Liu Qun didn't think that Lu Yan had today's status by himself, he thought that Lu Yan was a person with a deep background, so he felt respectful. In addition, he also has his own considerations for doing this, don't look at him now in charge of the Maoshan faction, it seems that the scenery is infinite, rich and powerful, but in fact, these are all given to him by Rong Lao. With just one word from Rong Lao, he will lose all of this.
Therefore, he was respectful to Lu Yan, and he did not indirectly please Rong Lao.
With a polite and detached smile on his face, Lu Yan directly rejected Liu Qun's kindness: "Master Liu, I appreciate your kindness, but today I was supposed to be the host, and I invited a few friends to eat together, I'm really embarrassed to let you break the bank." ”
The smile on Liu Qun's face paused, and a ghostly light flashed in his eyes. However, his wife Yali had a smile on her face that seemed to be angry, and her voice was as tactful as a yellow warbler, with a hint of an exotic accent, which was very good.
"Camp Commander Lu, the one who comes is a guest, since you are our guest, then your guest is also our guest. Since you have come to the Southern Regions, of course, we have to do the friendship of the landlord, please don't shirk again. Your friends must be very hungry by now, the owner of this lodge knows me well, I asked him to tell the kitchen to serve you quickly, what do you think? ”
Yali's words were reasonable, making people really embarrassed to refuse, she did not blindly persuade Lu Yan, but used the people behind Lu Yan to express her meaning, and the high emotional intelligence was really convincing.
Liu Qun gave her an appreciative look, stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture, and said with a smile: "Battalion Commander Lu, and all friends who have come from afar, please." ”
Lu Yan pursed his lips, although his face was still smiling, but there was no trace of smile in his eyes.
He didn't want to agree to Liu Qun's invitation, he knew a little bit about Liu Qun's thoughts, but these were Rong Lao's private affairs, and he couldn't and didn't have the right to interfere. Liu Qun wants to brush his favorability in front of him, so that he can "eat people with a soft mouth and take people short" so that he can say more good things about him in front of Rong Lao in the future, so that his position will be more stable.
Lu Yan doesn't evaluate whether this is right or wrong, but if he wants to hit him with a small abacus, then he can't sit idly by.
Lu Yan didn't move, and the people behind him naturally wouldn't follow Liu Qun stupidly, and there was a momentary stalemate between the two sides.
Suddenly, the middle-aged woman standing beside Yali raised her head in resentment, staring directly at Lu Shan with a murderous gaze, and a strange red light flashed in her eyes.
Lu Shan was keenly aware of this abnormal gaze, and looked at her, only to see that the woman was smiling brightly at herself.
In the garden, colorful butterflies fluttered, flying freely in the air, no one noticed, and a moth as small as a mosquito flew suddenly towards the crowd and stopped on Lu Shan's shoulder.
Lu Shan was chilled by the woman's weird smile, and a creepy feeling swept through her body.
The woman is very flamboyant, and although the years have left marks on her face, it still can't hide her beauty. Those traces are just the love of the years for her, which makes her original beautiful appearance more of the charm that has been precipitated by the years.
This face gave Lu Shan a strange feeling, she didn't know if this woman was a psychopath or a wrong person, she actually looked at herself with that kind of treacherous gaze, and forgot to take medicine when she went out!
Although she didn't find anything wrong, Lu Shan still secretly concentrated her energy and cheered up, and her muscles were tense and on alert.
If other people saw her, they would think that she was too grassy, but she has nearly 20 years of experience facing crises, and she has a strong premonition of unknown dangers.
In the end, Lu Yan still didn't accept Liu Qun's kindness, because Lu Yang, who had already finished ordering, walked out, Lu Yan just found an excuse, smiled apologetically at Liu Qun, and said, "I'm sorry Master Liu, we have already ordered a good dish, and next time I have a chance, I will invite Master Liu and Mrs. Liu to dine together." ”
The smile on Liu Qun's face was almost unbearable, but he still maintained his superficial politeness, Yali's face changed, and even her eyes were a little red, as if she was blaming Lu Yan for rejecting their kind behavior.
Bidding farewell to Liu Qun and the others, Lu Yan led the group into the wooden restaurant and prepared to eat.
When Lu Shan passed by the middle-aged woman, she suddenly felt a slight itching pain in her neck, she reached out and touched it, and suddenly left a moth's corpse and a little blood on her fingertips.
"The environment here is good, but this mosquito is too big, and it hurts to bite people!" Lu Shan raised her finger and let Ye Gang see the moth under her finger that died tragically.
"Where is the bite, let me see?" Ye Gang pulled Lu Shan over, approached her face and carefully observed the place where the moth was bitten, the red spots were very obvious on the white neck, Ye Gang's eyebrows furrowed, he took out comfrey paste from the bag, and smeared it on the red spots for Lu Shan. "This place is close to the mountains, there are many poisons in the mountains, I'm afraid this thing is poisonous, did you bring that potion? It's a good idea to smear some of your own potions to be on the safe side. ”
Lu Shan is not sloppy, she knows that there are many poisons in the Southern Regions, otherwise the people would not have spread the rumors about the poisonous technique of the Southern Regions.
took out the potion and asked Ye Gang to wipe it on the wound for himself, and the two walked into the restaurant side by side.
In the garden, Liu Qun and Yali and his party were not in a hurry to leave, Yali looked at the restaurant with a vague gaze, and asked in a low voice: "What kind of character is that Battalion Commander Lu, who needs you to treat it like this?" But I didn't expect him to even give you face, hmph, I don't know which son-in-law it is, so there is no one in his eyes. I'd like to see him......"
"That's it! Don't talk about these things that you don't have, I warn you, don't use those evil methods in your house on him, be careful of provoking fire! Liu Qun frowned and admonished, what he didn't say was not to offend Lu Yan and finally hurt him.
When he first married Yali, Yali's family was indeed very helpful to him, but now the situation has completely changed, and now he is the existence that others need to look up to.
Yali's beautiful eyes turned and her smile was like a flower, which suddenly made Liu Qun's heart soften, and she said to her in a friendly voice: "Ali, you also know that the master is on temporary duty in the army, and the battalion commander Lu is the direct leader of the master. Regardless of whether this leader lives up to his name or not, we can't touch him, and Master's methods are not even clear to me, let alone your family? It's always right to sail the ship carefully, don't implicate your family for the sake of impulse. ”
"Ah Qun, I remember everything you said, I definitely won't cause you trouble." Yali smiled softly, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of style.
Liu Qun smiled with satisfaction, and then as if he had thought of something, he turned his head to look at the middle-aged woman and said, "Zhu Dan, I have already asked someone to help with Xiaoxue's matter, and I believe that there will be a result soon." Don't worry, Xiaoxue will definitely be fine. ”
The middle-aged woman named Zhu Dan lowered her eyes slightly, the corners of her mouth raised a strange arc, and she said, "I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry at all." ”
Seeing this, a flash of worry flashed in Yali's eyes, she held Zhu Dan's hand and comforted: "Cousin, Ah Qun said that Xiaoxue will be fine, she will definitely be fine." ”
"I know, she's going to be fine." It's someone else who has something to do.
Zhu Dan glanced back at the restaurant, a bewitching red light flashed in his eyes, which was strangely similar to the flowers in the garden, and a butterfly with red and translucent body flew over and landed in her palm.
Not far away, green hills spread through layers of mist, and if you look down from the air, you can see that it looks like a huge swimming dragon.
