A certain province, Lushi, is a coastal city, light industry gathered, import and export trade is prosperous, and tourism is developed.

Qingwa Island is one of the smaller of the many developed islands in the city. The island is close to the port of Lushi, about 50 nautical miles, covers an area of less than 10 square kilometers, the southeast of the island is gentle, about 100 households on the island live in the southeast, basically every household charters a sea area for breeding seafood.

The northwest terrain of the island is relatively steep, and the near coast is a broken wall, which is smooth as a mirror, and is basically 90 degrees from the sea level, and the sea level is about 10 meters to the top of the wall. Very few people from the island come here.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, in the northwest of Qingwa Island, on a slightly flat sea stone protruding from the sea level under the broken wall, a young man sat cross-legged, letting the sea breeze howl and the waves beat, the young man sat firmly on the sea stone, his eyes were slightly closed, his face was not a trace of waves, and the fog was shrouded around him, and sometimes there was a trace of white gas from the Baihui acupoint into his body.

The young man's name is Chen Shi, an orphan, he was adopted from the orphanage by his master at the age of 3, practiced ancient martial arts with his teacher at the age of 4, crossed the peak of the human level at the age of 15, and entered the prefecture level, at the age of 18, the realm of ancient martial arts reached the middle of the prefecture level, and was selected for the sharp knife assault class through the big competition 1 year later.

The Sharp Knife Assault Class is known as the soul of the organization, and those who can enter the Sharp Knife Assault Class are all leaders in various fields. This assault squad has maintained an establishment of 60 people, divided into 12 teams, each group of 5 people, named after the 12 zodiac signs, with the dragon as the head and the rat as the last.

Chen Shi joined the dragon group with the first result of the competition. At this time, his ancient martial arts realm had reached the peak of the earth-level and touched the threshold of the heaven-level. His teacher was very pleased, and once said proudly in the ancient martial arts world: "Although the teacher is not good, but he teaches a good apprentice, look at you old guys, who have cultivated for decades, they are not as good as my apprentices who have not yet been weak." If you can't cultivate yourself, you can't teach your disciples and grandchildren, you can't do anything at an age, and you really want to 'die young' halfway, what kind of face do you have to meet our ancient Chinese martial ancestors? ”。

After these words came out, a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and there was an endless stream of people who came to challenge Chen Shi. But most of Chen Shi politely refused, and a very small number of Chen Shi discussed with him privately in order to improve his actual combat experience, and neither side publicized it to the outside world.

And those who were rejected failed to learn from Chen Shi but found his master. Since then, whenever Chen Shi sees his master, his master has a blue nose and swollen face, either a crutch or a wheelchair.

……

In the summer of 2019, at the foot of a mountain peak in the southeast of the Andes, all 5 members of the Sharp Knife Banlong Group gathered here.

"This operation involved 100 organizations, and everyone signed the convention, and the search area was strictly demarcated, and we could only search in the designated area and not cross the border. The time limit is 5 days, and someone will pick us up after 5 days. The operation was deployed as usual, with the 'Stone' in the front, the 'Lion' in the rear, I in the center, the 'Fat Man' in charge of communication facilities and logistical supplies, and the 'Falcon' at the end. Along the way, look for high points to gather intelligence, and be responsible for breaking off. The distance between each person is controlled within two or three kilometers. Got it? It was the captain of the dragon group who spoke, codenamed "Pangolin".

The other four replied at the same time, "Yes"

"Okay, now check the communications, the map, the guns, check the time."

"Check-and-check complete."

"One last check the search apparatus."

"Over."

"Let's go."

The Andes Mountains are located on the west coast of South America, with a total length of more than 8,900 kilometers from north to south, which is the longest mountain range in the world, running through the western part of the South American continent, known as the "backbone of South America", with an average altitude of about 4,000 meters.

The area demarcated by the Jiandao Formation is the southeast of the mountain range, in the middle of the mountain, accounting for one percent of the entire mountain area, about 500,000 square kilometers. The height and width of the terrain in this area gradually decreased, the vertical and horizontal faults were intertwined, and the erosion of Quaternary glaciers and flowing water caused the mountains to show a fragmented and broken form, generally with Alpine landform characteristics, sparse vegetation, occasional hay and low shrubs, similar to desert.

Chen Shi thought as he walked: "This operation is very strange, more than 100 heads of organizations have signed treaties to check and balance each other, and each search team has strictly divided the area and limited the number of searchers. It can be seen that what is being searched for this time is very important to each organization. Such an important thing, the team members who participated in the search did not know what to search, but before leaving, the superior gave 5 members of the dragon team a simple silver-white ring to each person. I was told that the ring was a search device, covering a radius of 500 meters, and if the ring turned red, it meant that the object to be searched was within 500 meters, and the closer to the ring, the darker the red. ”

"I really don't know what you're looking for?"

"Stones, concentrate, go left for a kilometer, turn back and search." The sound of "pangolin" came from the headset.

Chen Shi was slightly embarrassed, as a veteran, he really shouldn't have traveled outside the world during the mission. In addition, this time shouldering the heavy responsibility of the organization, the area to be searched is very large, the time is very short, 5 days, excluding the rest time, the daily search area should be more than 100,000 square kilometers, calculated according to 24 hours a day, the walking distance per hour is about 10,000 meters. Chen Shi considered the importance and urgency of the task, so he got rid of distracting thoughts and no longer had a trace of slackness.

Time passed slowly, and the sky was dark.

"Stones, search bunkers along the way, find food, prepare to camp. Others report the situation. ”

"Received" Chen Shidao.

"No anomalous ......," the lion, falcon, and fat man replied.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Shi: "The camp has been built, please instruct, it's over"

"Take turns on duty for the night, take a break and leave in 5 hours."

......

Pangolins: "Stones, lions, fat people, falcons report"

Stone: "Nothing found". Lion, Fatty, Falcon: "Nothing to Find"

In five days, the five members of the dragon group have searched the designated area, but they have found nothing.

"The deadline has come, keep in formation, slowly retreat, and assemble at the starting point." The voice of the captain of the dragon group came from the communication equipment.

"We haven't finished our mission yet, so why don't we just go back?" The stone was a little unwilling.

"Obey the order, we have searched this area, we have not found it, it is very likely that what we are looking for is not here, the fat man sent a signal to his superiors, and in an hour the convoy arrived at the starting point."

Fatty: "Roger"

The communication equipment was quiet, and the five people were silent, the task was not completed, and they were not happy in their hearts.

"Multiple unidentified objects appeared on the radar, northwest, at a distance of 10 km. No, the distance is closing quickly, 9 kilometers, please indicate. The fat man's slightly hurried voice sounded in the communication equipment.

At this time, the fat man was very depressed: "This time, the heads of various organizations signed clauses in the convention, one of which limits the coverage of radar equipment and must not exceed the demarcated search area. If it were not for this clause, with the advanced degree of the Sharp Knife Group's radar, there would be no blind spots within 100 kilometers, and how could an unknown object be discovered only when it approaches 10 kilometers. ”

"The fifth, the fourth, evacuate at full speed, and the stones and lions are looking for cover." The pangolin quickly analyzed the situation and calmly gave the order.

"It's drones, 20 of them, 2 bombs each. Looks like we're in some trouble. "The ancient martial arts cultivation at the peak of the prefecture level made Chen Shi's vision far beyond ordinary people.

"Stones, lions, retreat at full speed immediately, I'll take cover, and the fat man sends a signal for help." The boss of the dragon group was still calm and calm, and gave the order decisively.

"I'll lure these drones away, and you can get out of the way quickly." When a drone equipped with weapons appeared in the demarcated area, Chen Shi already had an ominous premonition. He said with determination, and he had calculated in his heart: "The drone relies on infrared sensing, and the five people are about 3 kilometers apart, and now it is very likely that they are only sensed by the drone and led them away, and the chances of the other four brothers surviving have greatly increased." ”

With a smile on his face, he threw away the communication equipment, and without hesitation, rushed out of cover and headed away at full speed in the direction of the drone.

"Stone come back, obey orders." The pangolin roared and scurried in the direction of the stone.

"Bang bang bang!" Several bullets hit the boulder in the path of the "pangolin", slowing him down. "I'll pick up the stones, and you take the third and fifth children to evacuate." The language of the "lion" in the headset is concise.

"You TMD dare to shoot me, you get back for me, this is the order." The "pangolin" roared angrily, still running forward with his life.

"Bang! ......" There was a loud bang, and a bomb exploded a hundred meters from Chen Shi's side. Chen Shi turned on one side to minimize the wound. got up and continued to run forward, his state had already been adjusted to the peak, the internal force was condensed on the surface of the body, and he wanted to lure all the drones away as much as possible.

"Bang bang bang!" The sound of the bomb explosion continued, and Chen Shishan spun around, and in an instant it intersected with the drone.

"18, which did not meet expectations, and 2 more, which were not brought in." Chen Shi didn't have time to look back and observe, but listening to the arguments, it was not difficult for him to be at the peak of the prefecture level cultivation.

"It's 5 kilometers ahead, 5 kilometers is fine, as long as there are another 5 kilometers, the four brothers can be evacuated safely." The blood stained the beige coat, and Chen Shi, who was covered with scars, calculated in his heart.

"Stone, hold on, the second brother is here."

"No...... You two bastards, get the hell out of here. ”

"There are still 4 kilometers to go, bang bang bang! 3 km, bang bang bang! Two kilometers ...... "The mountain in front of it has been broken, and in front of Chen Shi is a cliff of 100 zhang.

"A quarter of an hour, as long as you hold on for a quarter of an hour, you can ensure the safe evacuation of the brothers. Also shoot down a drone, keeping a trace of clues. There was no road ahead, but Chen Shi was still smiling, stopping, turning, squatting, aiming, and calming.

"Poof!" A bullet fired.

"You get back here, I'm here enough...... Boom! ...... Snort! ......" As the lion roared, the sound of a bomb exploding came from the headset.

"You bastard, you always disobey orders, even your eldest brother dares to yell, I'll see how I clean you up later......" Two lines of hot tears slipped down the cheeks of the 'pangolin' covered with oil paint and dust.

"Poof!" hit, one drone was shot down.

"Bang bang!" The air wave was mixed with shrapnel, and it lifted Chen Shi towards the Baizhang cliff.

"Goodbye, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fifth brother, we will be brothers again in the next life. The master ..... "His body fell rapidly, and his consciousness gradually blurred.
