Chapter 199: A Difficult Way Home

Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai sighed beside Sun Kui's corpse for a while, and then searched nearby.

Soon they found Xiao Zhong's mutilated body in a bulging pile of dead rats. Apparently he had fought the remnants of the rat colony before he died. It's just that in the end, he paid for his young life.

Seeing that Sun Kui and the others were already dead, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai certainly had no need to stay any longer. Although they killed a large number of rats with the help of gas explosions, there must still be a remnant of the rat colony in the pipeline. In this way, the first thing they need to do is to return to the cave or to the ground.

After Lin Yang and the others briefly packed up their belongings next to the corpses of Sun Kui and the others, they quickly left the site of the explosion and marched towards the place where they had found the rat colony.

On the way, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai naturally exchanged information about each other.

In this way, Lin Yang knew through Jiang Zhengkai that the place where they found the rat colony was indeed close to an exit with an iron fence gate. It's just that the iron door was locked with a firm lock, and Jiang Zhengkai didn't have the means to open it with a pistol.

Hearing this, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai finally gave up their plan to go to the iron fence gate after some discussion. After all, there are not only remnants of rats in the pipeline, but also undead rat demons. If they make too much noise at the iron fence gate, they are afraid that the rats will follow them and kill them.

After having such a decision, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai could only pin their hopes of returning to the ground in the direction of the cave entrance. Although the road back to the cave was far away, the road was safe. In this way, they came back from that side and looked like they were in good shape.

But before Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai walked to the place where they found the police uniform, there was a clicking sound in front of them. Hearing this, they dared to move on, and immediately hid in a hidden place, and pointed the muzzle of the flamethrower in their hand outward.

After hiding his body, Jiang Zhengkai asked Lin Yang beside him in a low voice, "What should we do?" ”

"I don't know, I'll spray it first. These rats are afraid of flamethrowers. Lin Yang calmly pressed his hand on the flamethrower's switch as he spoke. After the battle just now, he is now a qualified fighter. As he spoke, his fingers pressed, and a tongue of fire erupted forward, burning towards the place where the click sounded.

"Squeak ......" Under the scorching flames, the screams of rats were immediately heard. At the same time, the scene in front of the road was completely exposed to Lin Yang and the others. Not far in front of them gathered a dense mass of shadows of various sizes. Apparently they had another encounter with the rats.

“tmd! How can there be? Jiang Zhengkai saw the situation in front of him and scolded in a low voice.

"Looks like we're in trouble again." Lin Yang gritted his teeth and replied.

As the flames went out, the rats in front of them squeaked again. Immediately, there was a clicking sound coming from their side. Apparently the rats had sent their scouts over to investigate the situation.

Hearing these clicking sounds, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai both held their breath and looked in the direction where the sound came from. Fortunately, these are already far from where the explosion occurred. As a result, the lighting circuitry here is not completely interrupted. With the help of the dim light, they could see shadows swaying around them as the rats crawled near them.

However, to Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai's delight, although the rats found their hiding place, they did not bite them. They sniffed at a distance for a moment, then retreated.

Hearing the clicking sound go away, Lin Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, Jiang Zhengkai whispered to the side, "They must have smelled the smell of dead rats on us, and then treated us as two piles of rat corpses." ”

Hearing this, Lin Yang nodded silently. He felt that Jiang Zhengkai was right, and things must be like this. At this moment, the rat colony in front suddenly became active. Immediately, gunshots and shouts came from the other side of the pipeline, "Shoot! Kill them, da-da-......"

"Someone has come to our rescue!" Hearing this voice, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai's faces showed expressions of joy. At the same time, they all held the flamethrower and got up from where they were hiding.

Just as Jiang Zhengkai was about to charge forward, Lin Yang grabbed his arm suddenly, "Team Jiang, let's wait a little longer!" If our people can't get past the rats, won't we fall under their siege? I think the rats won't be fooled a second time because of the smell on our bodies. ”

Hearing Lin Yang say this, Jiang Zhengkai nodded thoughtfully. Although he felt in his heart that these rats would not have such an IQ, he thought that Lin Yang's words still had some truth. After all, he had seen the rat demon and knew that it was something incredibly cunning.

In this way, when the gunfire was raging in front of them, they did not rush out of their hiding places, but aimed their flamethrowers at the ground of the pipeline, and prepared to stop the rats from retreating.

The matter was really said by Lin Yang! After a few moments of intense gunfire in front of them, screams rang out. Immediately, the gunfire receded into the distance. As the gunfire faded away, a dense rustle came from inside the pipe. Apparently the rats had followed the gunfire and chased them forward.

"They're chasing our people." Hearing this, Lin Yang whispered.

"And we're going to chase them?" Jiang Zhengkai tentatively suggested, "This way we can get closer to our people." When the time comes, it will also be convenient for us to meet with them. ”

Lin Yang knew that doing so meant that they had to take a big risk. After all, once the rat colony has no way to chase the humans in front of them, it is possible for them to return to their previous places. This is what they had already discovered when dealing with the last swarm. But if they stay here, they'll probably never get back to the hole.

Thinking of this, Lin Yang had no choice but to nod vigorously. At this time, he felt a little annoyed in his heart. When they passed near the iron fence gate just now, why didn't they think of contacting Xiao Wei and them? Actually, he can't be blamed for this. After all, neither he nor Jiang Zhengkai are professional soldiers. Now Jiang Zhengkai's mobile phone is also out of battery.

After making up their minds, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai followed behind the rat pack with flamethrowers in their hands. Fortunately, they had the smell of dead rats on their bodies as cover, and the rats running behind the rats did not pay much attention to them. However, some of them will suddenly stop smelling the air. After all, there is still a difference between the taste of dead rats and the taste of live rats.

Lin Yang and the others pursued forward for more than a hundred meters, and found that the rat colony had stopped moving. Apparently they failed to catch up with the humans in front of them, and eventually gave up on the pursuit.

"Lin Yang, why don't I think they went to the entrance of the cave?" After stopping, Jiang Zhengkai only observed, and then whispered to Lin Yang beside him, "Look at the area where the rat swarm is distributed now, they are mainly concentrated on the left side, and there is a passage to their right. That's the way to the hole. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Zhengkai pointed to the light at the intersection, "See?" There's a big symbol on the wall behind the lamp. That's what I painted. ”

When Lin Yang heard this, he had to admire Jiang Zhengkai's meticulous and clever work. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid Jiang Zhengkai wouldn't be the captain of the police station, right? As they spoke, the rats moved again. At the same time, gunshots were heard from inside the pipe on the left.

Looking at the movement of the rats to the left side of the pipe, Lin Yang and Jiang Zhengkai both understood that they had a good chance to escape back to the entrance of the cave at this time. Now all they had to do was charge the rats, and under the cover of the flamethrowers, they could escape through the area controlled by the rats back into the pipe leading to the hole.

With this in mind, the two of them got up from the ground in unison.

Just as they were about to charge forward, Lin Yang suddenly had another idea in his mind. Immediately, he lowered his voice and said to Jiang Zhengkai, "Team Jiang, do you think those people who are fighting with the rats are going the wrong way?" ”

"They...... It may be ......" Although Jiang Zhengkai didn't want to admit this reality, he knew that Lin Yang's words were very likely to be correct. If they weren't on the wrong track, why did they have to turn back here? Judging by the sound of gunfire alone, the firepower of those men was much weaker than before. Apparently they had already suffered casualties in the last firefight.

Seeing Jiang Zhengkai nodding, Lin Yang said in an undoubted tone with a gloomy face, "We can't go back!" We have to get that rescue team out. At this moment, he is like Sun Kui who wants to exterminate the rats, they all put their own life and death out of the way, thinking of other people's lives and deaths.

"Alright! I listen to you. Jiang Zhengkai replied with the same gloomy face. When people are faced with life and death decisions, their hearts are often fragile. Now that he can make such a decision, then he is not a coward.

Seeing that Jiang Zhengkai agreed to his proposal, Lin Yang immediately picked up the flamethrower and rushed forward. As soon as he got behind the rats, he immediately pressed the flamethrower switch. Immediately, a tongue of fire swept towards the back of the rats, causing the rats running behind to squeak and scream.

When Lin Yang did this, Jiang Zhengkai would naturally not be idle. He also attacked the rats with a flamethrower. Under the attack of the two of them, the rat swarm, which was originally moving towards the left passage, quickly stopped. Immediately, a large number of rats rushed towards where they were standing.

Lin Yang saw that the rat swarm had changed the target of the attack to them, and hurriedly shouted to Jiang Zhengkai, "Team Jiang! Run. Let's go. (To be continued.) )
