Chapter 20: The Search
Lei Li heard the master call him, and hurriedly followed the master, and the master and apprentice began to explore around here, trying their best to find some clues. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Just as the two of them searched all the way and were about to enter the hinterland of Hukou Mountain, the red wolf noticed that there seemed to be human footprints under the grass, obviously traces of someone coming, but the traces of these footprints seemed to be deliberately covered by someone.
At this time, Lei Li also noticed the footprints on the ground, and said to the red wolf, "Master, if you look at the footprints on the ground, it is obvious that someone has come. We searched for footprints, and we would surely find them. ”
The red wolf looked at Lei Li and said with a smile, "Little ghost, you're quite clever!" You can still find footprints on the ground. Yes, the observation is quite detailed. ”
Lei Li touched his nose and smiled at the red wolf. The red wolf didn't say anything more, and waved his hand at Lei Li, signaling Lei Li to follow. The red wolf was in front, and Lei Li was on his heels, searching for footprints and searching hard.
The two followed the footprints and came to an extremely narrow place. It is an extremely narrow passage that only allows one person to pass through, and there are mountains on both sides, so there is nothing special about it.
The red wolf slowly advanced forward, and Lei Li only followed quietly in the rear. Just as the two of them were about to reach the end, they suddenly found a cave in front of them. Looking closely, the entrance of the cave was so narrow that only one person could pass through, and the two of them didn't think much about it, and climbed into the cave one after another.
After entering, they found that the entrance to the cave was narrow, and there seemed to be a different cave inside, and the two were very surprised. After walking more than a dozen steps in the cave, I found that there was a fork in front of me, and it was in the shape of a ball, which was very large enough to accommodate more than 50 people. However, there are many branches of the cave, and I don't know where they lead.
"Master, what should we do now? There are multiple side roads, and there may be side roads in the middle of the side roads, what are we going to do? Lei Li looked at the scene in front of him and asked the red wolf.
"Don't panic! Tell me, what is the purpose of our entry into this cave? The red wolf didn't answer Lei Li's question, but asked Lei Li.
Lei Li thought for a moment and said, "Is it to find the people of the Heavenly Wolf Organization?" ”
The red wolf shook his head and said, "Remember what those six people said just now?" ”
Lei Li didn't know what the red wolf meant, and immediately asked, "Master, which sentence do you mean?" ”
"They said they were just responsible for getting rid of the mechanical dog! Do you remember that? ”
Lei Li nodded, signaling the red wolf to remember this sentence, and the red wolf continued, "Generally speaking, their Heavenly Wolf Organization will not do useless things, and if they want to deal with that mechanical dog, it proves that after they kill the mechanical dog, they will definitely get greater benefits." Now that they have just killed the mechanical dog, we fishermen have benefited, and they certainly haven't had a chance to obtain the treasure guarded by the mechanical dog. So, this proves that there is a good chance that the treasure has not been picked up yet. ”
Lei Li heard the words of the red wolf and asked, "Master, is the cave where we are now a treasure hiding place?" ”
Lei Li looked at the red wolf, the red wolf didn't speak, and Lei Li continued to ask, "But master, I have a question, how can the mechanical dog pass through this extremely narrow cave because of its huge size?" ”
The red wolf listened to Lei Li's words and said with a smile, "It's quite comprehensive, my little apprentice." But have you noticed, why is there light in this cave? ”
Lei Li thought for a moment and said, "The master is saying that this cave is connected to the outside world?" ”
"I think so, this cave must have a wide area to connect with the outside world. This makes it possible for the mechanical dog to move freely in and out of it. And I suspect that the cave must be blocked by plants where it is connected to the outside world, which is why there is only a glimmer of light in the cave. The red wolf analyzed Lei Li.
After listening to the words of the red wolf, Lei Li immediately said, "Master, I understand, they led the mechanical dog out of the cave, and after killing the mechanical dog, they will go back to the cave to get the treasure, right?" Previously, they had been emphasizing that their mission was only to lure away and get rid of the mechanical dogs. It is also to arouse our suspicions, to make us think that they still have manpower, to be jealous of them, and to get a chance to survive. Master, does my analysis make sense? ”
The red wolf smiled, this little guy is really fast learner. "Yes, the analysis is correct, they really want to disturb our judgment. But they were wrong, my red wolf is a master who is not afraid of death! What if their boss was here? Now, as far as I can tell, they must be on two separate lines with their boss, Dick, and Dick must not be here. I just don't know what is hidden in this cave. ”
The two of them continued to walk forward, observing their surroundings as they went, in case anything unexpected happened.
The two of them searched inward along the leftmost branch road, they didn't know the situation inside the cave, so they walked very carefully every step. As a long-term traveler and adventurer, Red Wolf showed his great experience at this time. From time to time, I have to knock on the surrounding walls to see if there are any hidden grids, traps, etc.
"Master, we should be at the end! This slip road should be a dead end. Lei Li looked ahead, obviously there was no way out.
The red wolf didn't say anything, just looked around, but didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
"Let's go back the way we came. There is nothing unusual about this slip road. Red Wolf said.
Lei Li also nodded, and followed the red wolf back. "Master, is it the wrong way we searched? Or is it just a coincidence that there are no treasures in this hole at all? ”
Faced with Lei Li's question, the red wolf did not speak, but chose to be silent. As Lei Li said, these are just inferences from the two of them now, and as for whether they can find the treasure, the red wolf is really not sure. However, for the red wolf, who has been dealing with the Sky Wolf Organization for many years, he has a hunch that the Sky Wolf Organization will not do some useless things, since they have gone to great lengths to lure out the mechanical dog and solve the mechanical dog, the six must have a plan. You'll have to search again.
Returning to the fork where they had just entered the cave, the red wolf suddenly thought that instead of searching randomly, they should first look for the light source, so that they could determine the place where the cave communicates with the outside world, and then determine whether the mechanical dog was led out from here, which would be much easier!
"Apprentice, let's look for the direction of the light source this time!" The red wolf said to Lei Li.
Lei Li nodded to the red wolf, now there is only this way!
"Master, what do you say will be the secret that can make those six people dare not tell it desperately?" Lei Li asked suspiciously.
"It must be something important, right? Otherwise, a few people should not fight to the death. Red Wolf said.
The two of them walked towards the light source, and after walking for long, they only felt that the light was getting brighter and brighter ahead. The two of them thought that they should be able to find it immediately, so they quickened their pace and rushed forward.
The two of them walked a few hundred paces further, only to see that the front of the cave was getting wider and wider. Later, the two found that there was an extremely bright place in the cave, and the area was also extremely spacious, and there was a stream flowing in front of them, and it seemed that they had reached the end of the cave.
The red wolf looked at the sunlight above his head and said to Lei Li, "This should be the place where this cave communicates with the outside world. ”
The red wolf turned around and found that this was the end of the cave, and the whole cave was spherical and overgrown with plants, which must be the reason for the sunlight here. And there is a stream in front of it, which also provides water for the growth of plants.
"Master, come and see! There is a footprint here. Lei Li noticed the anomaly and said to the red wolf.
The red wolf heard Lei Li's shout and immediately walked towards Lei Li's side.
Lei Li saw the master coming, and said again, "But looking at its shape, it shouldn't be human footprints." It should be the footprints of some kind of beast. ”
The red wolf looked carefully at the footprints on the ground and closed his eyes, as if trying to recall something.
Just as Lei Li continued to explore in the direction of the footprints, the red wolf suddenly opened his eyes, "These are the footprints of the mechanical dog!" ”
Hearing this, Lei Li was shocked. But then I thought about it, and the size of the footprints was exactly the size of a mechanical dog!
"Master, since the footprints of this mechanical dog appear here! Presumably that mysterious treasure must be around here, too? ”
The red wolf nodded slightly, but did not speak. I took a closer look at the surrounding walls and found some scratches on the walls. Red Wolf deduced that the scratches must have been left by the mechanical dog when he came out of the cave. The mechanical dog must have left the cave through the exit above their heads! The red wolf checked the size of the exit above their heads again, and tried to remember the size of the mechanical dog he saw yesterday! As expected, the red wolf must have been lured out of here yesterday!
"Yes, sure. This mechanical dog was lured out of here by those six people, and the baby must be around here! Red Wolf said. Obviously, the red wolf also has a trace of yearning for the unknown treasure in his heart.
Just as the red wolf's voice fell, Lei Li suddenly asked, "Master, I don't know if you have noticed that when we came." The footprints in the grass seemed to have been deliberately covered up, and since the six people were going to lure the mechanical dog out, they would definitely not care about covering up the footprints in their panic! ”
After Lei Li finished saying this, the red wolf thought for a moment, "Let's make a hypothesis first, let's say they found the entrance to this cave, and after entering, they found the existence of a mechanical dog, and then they quietly exited the cave. However, they didn't want the cave to be discovered, so they could only hastily cover up the footprints of themselves and others. They then lured the mechanical dog out of the hole through the exit above, and this hypothesis also holds! ”
Lei Li smiled and didn't say anything more. As the master said, the master's assumption is also valid, after all, before the treasure is found, all this is just the reasoning of the two of them!
