"Hahaha, want to run?"
The red dragon laughed wildly, then urged the war horse under him, and rushed over with a Russian light machine gun in his hand, shouting loudly as he rushed, "Give it to me, brothers, grab the little lady of the phoenix and reward two pieces of the ocean." ”
Two pieces in the ocean, that is a month's salary of the bandits, how can they not be red-eyed, one by one waving a saber in their hands, whistle and follow the phoenix in the direction of the mountain road.
Phoenix's war horses are better, and they started early, so even if the red dragon and they are desperately chasing after them, they are still some distance behind. And in order to capture the phoenix alive, the red dragon and they did not shoot, so the phoenix was temporarily safe.
The two groups of people chased and fled, running along the mountain road in the direction of the sky, and they all tried their best to achieve their goals, especially the phoenix, who desperately opened the distance between them and the people behind them, so that they had a chance to get out of danger.
The distance of several miles passed quickly under the galloping of the horses of both sides, and at this time, the other Qingmakan cavalry who was responsible for chasing Phoenix had also appeared in the sight of Phoenix and the others.
At this time, the phoenix and they were already in a desperate situation of attacking in front and back, with mountain walls on both sides, and the steep apes were worried, and it was impossible to go up; The Qingmakan cavalry in front and rear added up to three or four hundred, firmly blocking the passage.
At this point, even the Qingmakan cavalry in front and behind thought that the Phoenix and his party were already winged and could not escape, so they slowed down and slowly pressed forward.
As for the fork in the road not far away, the people of Qingmakan didn't pay attention to it at all, outsiders may just know that it was a dead valley, but the people within a radius of 100 miles knew that there were still many strange things there, which could not be explained, so the people of Qingmakan had a deep fear of it. The Hidden Dragon Mountain, where the phoenix is located, is also not too far away, so they feel that the phoenix should know the horror there and will not send it to death by itself.
"Phoenix, our boss has long taken a fancy to you, so you surrender obediently, we won't treat you badly, maybe you can still be the lady of the village at that time, eat fragrant and drink spicy, that day is called a comfortable." The pursuers behind are the "mountain patrol ghosts" in Babiao, who are extremely insidious, but they are also scheming.
He is also telling the truth, Du Jintang has long coveted the phoenix, but the power of Hidden Dragon Mountain is not small, so he can only think about it at first, but then something happened in Hidden Dragon Mountain, and he hooked up with Yurilev, the commander of the Third Division of the Republic of Tsarist Russia in the Ussuri River region, and his strength soared, so he began to expand his ambitions.
This time, Phoenix took people to Fengtian, and he had already received the news, and among some of the cottages that Phoenix passed, several had already taken refuge in him, so they naturally told him the news.
Therefore, he ordered people to set up an ambush on this road, not only the people in the first line of the sky, but also sent the mountain patrol ghost and the red dragon to ambush on the mountain road, once the phoenix and they rushed through the first line of the sky, they immediately intercepted them, so as to capture her alive.
Seeing that the phoenix was encircled in the middle, the people on both sides thought that she couldn't run this time, so they began to persuade her to surrender, so that they could lose fewer people.
The phoenix raised his eyebrows, carried a pair of barge guns in his hand, and shouted angrily, "Mountain patrol ghost, red dragon, don't dream, aunt and grandmother just don't want this life, you don't have to think about it." ”
Chilong sneered when he heard this, "Hey, it's really hard-mouthed, you just shut your mouth after a while." As he spoke, he waved his hand and ordered his cavalry to move forward.
Phoenix looked at the Qingmakan bandits who were getting closer and closer, gritted his teeth, and suddenly shouted, "Brothers, act!" ”
When the people heard the sound, they immediately moved, and the horses headed for the fork in the road.
When the red dragon and the mountain patrol ghost saw it, they were all stunned, as if they didn't expect the phoenix to run there, but then they were anxious, "Grandma's, stop them, don't let them enter the valley of death." ”
The bandits swarmed up and chased after the phoenix to stop them, but it was too late, and they could only watch as they plunged headlong into the valley and disappeared.
"Red Dragon, what should I do?" The mountain patrol ghost stopped the war horse outside the valley mouth, looked at the misty valley mouth, and turned his head to ask the red dragon.
The red dragon clicked his lips, and then said angrily, "What can I do, if you go into the valley of death, you will almost definitely die, stay at the mouth of the valley, if they haven't come out for three days, then they won't be able to come out, and we can go back to restore our lives." ”
The mountain patrol ghost also knew that what Chilong said was correct, so he left more than 100 people to camp at the commanding heights outside the valley to guard the movements of the valley, and he and Chilong returned to Qingmakan Dazhai with the troops.
Although only a hundred men remained, the mouth of this Death Valley was narrow, and there were hills on both sides, and as long as fortifications were set up on it, it was impossible to break out.
Soon, a strong fortification was built outside the valley, and the bandits of Qingmakan set up four light machine guns and stood guard at the mouth of the valley.
There was silence in the valley, and not a single sound could be heard.
The phoenix crashed headlong into the mouth of the valley, and immediately fell into the perennial mist. No one knows when this fog has obscured the mouth of the valley, but it never stops throughout the year. Many people get lost in the fog and end up exiting the valley.
The phoenix rode the war horse into the mist, and felt that the fog seemed to be the substance, so rich that it made people breathe a little fast, and there was a strange smell permeating it, even the war horse couldn't help but sneeze and slow down.
Behind Phoenix, it seemed that other people also rushed in, but here they couldn't see their fingers, and they could only hear voices but not people, so Phoenix hurriedly slowed down and waited for others.
A warhorse jumped out from behind her and crashed headlong into her, and the knight on the horse let out an exclamation, as if it had hit something, and then there was a pop of landing.
"Clear Frost!" Phoenix heard the man's voice, and hurriedly jumped up from his warhorse, then groped his way forward, and soon came to Qingshuang's side.
Qingshuang rushed in from the outside on horseback, but the horse crashed headlong into the branch of a large tree sticking out horizontally in the mouth of the valley, and then fell Qingshuang to the ground.
Getting up from the ground, Qingshuang touched his dizzy head, and then said to Phoenix, "Miss, I'm fine, I just accidentally fell." ”
"It's okay, now the others don't know where they are, I'm afraid they're separated from us." As he spoke, Phoenix listened intently to the movements around him, and heard a burst of people shouting and neighing, and it seemed that everyone was not too far away.
"Smack!" Two gunshots rang out, and the phoenix raised the shell gun in his hand and pointed two shots into the sky, and the gunshots suddenly echoed in the valley.
These two gunshots were the signal, and the other people who had also entered the valley immediately converged here, and soon most of them were at the side of the phoenix.
"Report to the captain, there are three people missing, namely Xiaoliu, Han Dafei, and Ma Ming." After counting the number of people, Qingshuang said in a low voice.
Phoenix frowned, she didn't expect that such a fog would make the three of them lost, but it was useless to think about anything else at this time, so she waved her hand and said, "All hands are connected and search towards the valley." ”
In her guess, those people outside the valley would soon chase in, so they couldn't stop at the mouth of the valley, but she couldn't imagine that those people wouldn't dare to enter this valley at all.
The people held hands, and the horses were tied together one by one, so that the last man could pull them and walk towards the valley.
This fog seems to be mainly shrouded in the valley mouth, the more you go inside, the thinner it becomes, and when you walk more than a mile in the court, the fog has thinned and is almost gone, and when you get here, you can let go of your hands.
The phoenix stopped, looked around, and saw that the terrain here was open, and there were stalagmites rising from the sky everywhere, each of which was a few zhang to a dozen zhang high, and the thinnest one required three people to hug each other, and the thick root was like a hill.
What made the phoenix feel uneasy was that the stalagmites were all a strange red, looking as if they were condensed with blood, and shimmering with a strange light in the setting sun.
Within a radius of four or five square kilometers, there were blood-red stalagmites everywhere, and there seemed to be a dazzling crystal condensed on the surface, which was as smooth as crystal to the touch.
Everyone was also stunned, they had never seen such a strange situation, and a faint strange feeling floated in their hearts.
By this time, the sun had already begun to set, and the sunset that fell into the western sky seemed to be a disk stained red with blood, sprinkling the crimson on the earth and everything above it.
Those blood-red stalagmites looked particularly dazzling in such a sunset, as if there was crimson blood flowing on them, and even the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.
"Blood Magic Stone, it's Blood Magic Stone, it's over, it's over!" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted loudly, and they were a little hoarse when they heard the sound.
Phoenix turned his head to look and saw that it was a soldier from his own team who spoke, named Tang Asan, in his thirties, who used to be a gunner in Hidden Dragon Mountain, and had done many industries at the beginning, so he had a lot of experience.
I saw that his face was pale, his lips trembled, and his eyes were full of horror and despair.
"Ah San, what is the Blood Demon Stone?" Phoenix exclaimed, "What do you know?" ”
"Captain, the blood magic stone is what I told from a Hui imam, it is said to be a demon stone stained with the blood of the devil, it is extremely terrifying, anyone who sees it will be asked for his life by the devil, and Tao can't escape." As Tang Asan spoke, as if he had thought of something terrifying, his body trembled, and he subconsciously retreated.
With a thud, everyone took a step back, away from the blood-red stalagmite.
The phoenix shouted in a deep voice, "Ah San, don't be alarmist, this is just some blood-red stones, what does it have to do with some devils." ”
Tang Asan waved his hands again and again, and kept saying, "This is a stone stained red with the blood of the devil, full of demonic aura, and anyone who is contaminated will die." ”
"Tang Ah San!" A special combat member beside Phoenix shouted, "If you bewitch the people again, I will execute you on the spot." ”
Tang Asan's body trembled suddenly, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak anymore, but retreated into the crowd, bending his neck and not making a sound.
The special combat team members took a step forward and looked around at the members of those teams, and saw that most of them were pale, and it seemed that they believed Tang Asan's words, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, "People in this era are really superstitious, how can there be any ghosts in this world, they are purely scaring themselves." ”
"Don't think nonsense, everyone, I'll contact the base and send a helicopter to pick us up, so it'll be fine." Seeing that everyone was in a low mood, Phoenix opened her mouth, and as she spoke, she turned on the micro encrypted communicator, wanting to contact the Tiger Roaring Ridge base.
It is not more than a hundred miles away from the Tiger Roaring Ridge base, and the encrypted communicator designed can be kept unblocked within three hundred kilometers, so Phoenix believes that it will be able to contact the base immediately.
However, the miniature communicator turned on, but there was no sound in it, only the rustling of electricity, which made Phoenix's heart sink, and she changed the frequency several times in a row, but there was no response at all.
In the end, he dialed the micro communicator to an encrypted frequency that only she knew, which was the frequency of her contact with Luo Xiao, and only the two of them knew.
The result was still no response.
"It's strange, at the beginning, Sun Jian said that this is a super signal, even in the most remote places in the mountains, but now why is there no movement?" Phoenix felt strange in her heart, she inadvertently raised her head and saw those tall stalagmites, and a feeling of discomfort suddenly surged in her heart.
These stalagmites are so weird, no wonder Tang Asan called them blood magic stones, the more they looked at it, the more it looked like blood had congealed.
Although I don't know what the reason is, Phoenix knows that something is really wrong.
However, she is now the highest military commander here, so naturally she can't slack the morale of the army, so she obviously has no bottom in her heart, and she has to pretend to be calm.
"Captain, what now?" Everyone looked at Phoenix, waiting for her next order, "It's getting late now, shouldn't we find a place to rest?" ”
Phoenix felt that what they said made sense, so she agreed, and then everyone walked around the blood-red stalagmites and came to an open field full of purple sand and stones.
This open land, next to a small river, the water is very clear, and the bottom of the river is also covered with purple sand, which is very delicate and very clean, and it is very smooth and clean, which makes people like it in their hearts.
The people pitched their tents by the river, and then arranged for people to be on guard, and the rest of the people began to eat dry food, and some people had already drunk their kettles, and when they saw that the water was clear, they tried to drink a few sips.
The water was so sweet and refreshing that they drank it and filled the kettle.
By this time, it was completely dark!
