Chapter 4 Breaking into the Black Bamboo Ditch Again (4)
Under the cover of night, three Steyr military trucks staggered forward on the gravel-paved forest road. The dull roar of the engine can be heard far away in the night.
Shi Cheng, who was sitting in the Steyr heavy truck at the front, looked out the window and chatted with the driver Lao Wang without saying a word. Suddenly, Shi Cheng closed his mouth and stopped talking. Because, he noticed that something was wrong with the scene outside the car.
The last time he passed this gravel road, Shi Cheng clearly remembered that not only was the road on both sides very lively, but also from time to time some mountain birds perched on the trees were awakened by the sound of cars, and flew up in panic in the mountain forest. At this time, although it is raining lightly, there is no possibility of insect chirping in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, but there should always be mountain birds, right? Shi Cheng remembers that two minutes ago, there were no mountain birds on both sides of the highway that were startled by the sound of cars and jumped onto the road. But now, apart from the drizzle outside the car window and the trees on both sides of the road that followed the car forward and retreated, Shi Cheng didn't see a single bird feather. And it is at least five kilometers away from the mouth of the ditch of Heizhugou. No matter how influential the monsters in Heizhugou are, the range can't be more than five kilometers away, right? A very ominous premonition instantly surged into Shi Cheng's heart.
"Little brother, what's wrong?" Seeing that Shi Cheng suddenly stopped talking, the driver Lao Wang turned his head and glanced at Shi Cheng suspiciously, and then asked.
Hearing Lao Wang's question, Shi Cheng withdrew his gaze from the window, turned his head to look at Lao Wang and said, "Brother, slow down, there seems to be a problem here!" ”
"Questions?" Hearing Shi Cheng's words, Lao Wang tapped the brake twice in confusion and told the car behind to slow down. Then while slowly slowing down the speed of his car, he subconsciously looked at both sides of the car. In the blink of an eye, Lao Wang's originally puzzled face tensed up in an instant.
"Little brother, there's something wrong. It's a little too quiet, so quiet that it's a little overwhelming, as if there's a large group of people lurking nearby. ”
"Hmm!" Seeing that Lao Wang also felt it, Shi Cheng nodded, and then said, "Brother, I remember that there is still a distance of five or six kilometers from the 616 Forest Farm here, right?" ”
"Hmmm! That's right! Hearing Shi Cheng's question, Lao Wang nodded and said affirmatively: "Little brother has a good memory, there are still more than five kilometers away from the 616 Forest Farm." ”
"Brother, it's not good, you pay more attention." Hearing that Lao Wang affirmed his estimated distance, Shi Cheng reminded Lao Wang very vaguely.
"I understand, little brother, you can rest assured!" As he spoke, Lao Wang skillfully and quickly pulled the turn signal control button on the steering wheel with his right hand, and the turn signal of the control car jumped sharply and double-flashed. Then the right foot that stepped on the accelerator lifted a little further, and at the same time, the right hand, which had been very leisurely, was cautiously pressed on the gear lever.
Shi Cheng didn't pay attention to Lao Wang's movements. When Lao Wang said "understand", he had already put the helmet on the front shelf on his head.
"Attention, everyone, there may be something around here!"
Shi Cheng reminded the team members while picking up the Type 03 automatic rifle that was placed aside, and pulled the bolt with a "bang".
"Roger, Chief!" In the headphones, the voices of several squad leaders came one after another.
"Not good! Squeak......"
As soon as the voices of several squad leaders in the headset disappeared, a piercing braking sound suddenly came into Shi Cheng's ears.
The same braking sound, also sounded at the wheels of the two Steyr military heavy trucks that were following behind......
Although he had been prepared, Shi Cheng's body was still carried forward by the inertia of the car. In an instinctive reaction, Shi Cheng's eyes scanned the front of the car.
There is no situation!
Nothing was found, and Shi Cheng did not let his guard down. Holding the Type 03 rifle in his hand tightly, Shi Cheng asked suspiciously, "Brother, what's wrong?" ”
"It's fine!" As if he hadn't heard Shi Cheng's question, Lao Wang first poked his head out of the car window and looked down, then retracted his head as if relieved, turned his head to look at Shi Cheng and said, "We may be yin!" If I'm not mistaken, our feet should be empty right now. ”
"Empty?" Hearing Lao Wang say that his feet were empty now, Shi Cheng looked at Lao Wang suspiciously, and then followed Lao Wang's example and poked his head out of the car window. By the moonlight, Shi Cheng noticed that on the road under the cab, some weeds, leaves and branches were exposed under the gravel road. Obviously, there should be a layer of branches and weeds underneath, and then a layer of gravel. Looking at the front of the car again, under the illumination of the headlights, Shi Cheng could clearly see that on the road surface within a distance of five or six meters in front of him, some weeds, leaves and branches were also exposed under the gravel road. Moreover, there is not a single large stone on the pavement at this distance.
Retracting his head, Shi Cheng looked at Lao Wang and asked, "Brother, can you still go back?" ”
"It's just that the two wheels in front are empty, so they should be able to reverse!" Hearing Shi Cheng's question, Lao Wang Chong Shi Cheng said with a smile.
Lao Wang said, his left hand stretched out of the window and gestured to the car behind, signaling the car behind him to go backwards, his right hand pulled the gear lever, and his right heel slowly stepped on the accelerator.
"Whoa......
The Steyr military heavy truck that Shi Cheng was riding in had just retreated, and the ground under the cab of the car and five or six meters away in front of it suddenly collapsed. And Lao Wang also stepped on the accelerator with his right foot when the road collapsed. With the roar of the huge engine, the Steyr that Shi Cheng was riding in jumped backwards violently.
Shi Cheng sat in the cab, and he could clearly feel that the cab also went down at the moment when the road collapsed. However, it was only for a while. In the blink of an eye, he felt the cab of the car rise again. Looking outside, the car had retreated onto the road behind. As for the area in front of the car, the road surface has completely collapsed. Since he was sitting indoors, Shi Cheng could only see the black hole below, and he couldn't see how deep the collapsed place was.
Sitting in the cab and glancing at the mountains and forests outside the car, Shi Cheng ordered the team members through the intercom: "Everyone get out of the car immediately and be on alert, we may have to start work in advance." ”
After Shi Cheng gave the order, he turned his head and said to Lao Wang: "Brother, I'll go down and have a look." Then, without waiting for Lao Wang to speak, he opened the car door and jumped out of the truck with his Type 03 automatic rifle.
Scanning the surroundings vigilantly again, Shi Cheng walked to the place where the road collapsed in front of the car with the Type 03 automatic rifle, and turned around to compare the headlights with Lao Wang.
The lights went out. Shi Cheng put down the night vision device, and then looked down at the bottom of the collapsed place. And this look almost made Shi Cheng scold his mother.
The road collapsed to a depth of more than ten meters, and this was not the reason why Shi Cheng wanted to scold his mother. What really made Shi Cheng angry was the dense vertical trunk at the bottom of the pit, between ten or twenty centimeters in thickness, and all the upper ends were sharpened. You can imagine how vicious the guy who created this trap was......
