Chapter 41: Snowstorm
Faced with Gulal's series of questions, Tang Qianrou was not in a hurry to answer, but motioned for the torture and others to sit down, and then took out a beer and handed it over: "Drink?" ”
Torture shook his head: "I don't drink." ”
Ma Fei and Chen Taidong also shook their heads immediately, but Gulal was deeply affected by the beer can in Tang Qianrou's hand, opened it, drank half of the can in one go, and then sat down and repeated the previous question.
At this time, the tent door curtain was lifted, Wan Qingquan and Tang Sirong walked in, Tang Sirong who walked in looked at the map on the table at first glance, but Tang Qianrou looked at her with a disgusted look, Tang Sirong looked away with interest.
Wan Qingquan seemed to want to avoid a conflict between mother and daughter, so he had to get up and lead Tang Sirong out of the tent.
"I said she shouldn't have been brought here." Tang Qianrou whispered to herself, and then a smile appeared on her face, and she turned to Gulal Dao, "The number of the Golden Eagle Tribe is unknown, the deployment is unknown, and they basically use cold weapons, but it is not ruled out that they will use automatic weapons, of course, the most terrifying thing is the golden eagles that are always hovering above their heads, the only advantage of us entering the Four Seasons Mountain is that there are almost no other fierce beasts there." ”
Gulal frowned: "It's all cleaned up by those golden eagles?" ”
"That's right." Tang Qianrou pinched the beer can that had been drunk in her hand, "In short, as long as we don't take the initiative to provoke the people of the Golden Eagle Tribe, there should be no problems, the biggest unknown trouble we face is the situation after entering the Four Seasons Mountain." ”
After listening to the torture technique, he asked, "The first two survey teams didn't send any news back?" Don't they have a satellite phone? Also, didn't you say that the second expedition team survived, they should know what happened after entering the mountain? ”
Everyone looked at Tang Qianrou and looked forward to her answer, including Gulal, and the torture technique could be seen from Gulal's expectant eyes, what happened in the mountains, Tang Qianrou didn't even tell him.
After a long time, after Tang Qianrou opened another can of beer and took a sip, she spoke: "The two people who survived have lost contact, and the last time they contacted them, they only said that there were only two of them left in the whole team, and they also said that they had met the mountain god." ”
Gulal squeezed the beer can tightly: "Mountain god? Are you kidding! ”
Xingshu and Ma Fei glanced at each other, and then looked at Chen Taidong, Chen Taidong seemed to be a little absent-minded, thinking about other things, and his attention was not here at all.
The torturer asked, "Can you tell me about the specific situation?" ”
Tang Qianrou looked at the torture technique and said, "What I said just now is the specific situation. ”
Gulal was obviously dissatisfied with Tang Qianrou's answer: "You mean, everything is unknown, and we have to explore it ourselves?" ”
Tang Qianrou said coldly: "I spend money, you do things, it's as simple as that, don't forget, I paid all the money at once, and I also said that as long as I find the treasures that may exist, I will give you a percent." ”
One percent? Ma Fei was shocked when she heard this, Tang Qianrou's words made her realize that Tang Qianrou had probably thought of a simple solution to them, because with her personality, it was impossible to be so generous, according to legend, the treasures in Qimen can be enjoyed by a person for eight lifetimes.
Gulal turned to look at the map, then raised his eyes to look at them again, and asked Tang Qianrou, "What exactly do they do?" ”
Tang Qianrou raised her eyes and looked at the torture technique: "They are advisors, advisers who are also enemies and friends, as long as they cooperate well, they are friends, if they play tricks, you have the right to kill them at any time." ”
The torturers and the others were startled, and looked at Gulal's face with a strange smile.
Tang Qianrou smiled: "Of course, even if you want to kill them, you have to follow the order, if you don't follow the rules, the first to kill Ma Fei, then Chen Taidong, and finally it's the turn of the torture, don't be nervous, I don't really want to kill you, I just want you to stay and help me with peace of mind." ”
Torture just smiled and diverted the conversation aside: "It's too late, we have to rest, where are we staying tonight?" ”
Tang Qianrou looked at Gulal: "Arrange for the three of them to live in the big tent, send two groups of people to take turns to keep an eye on them, and set off at about 10 o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
Gulal shook his head: "It's too late, 3 hours early, 7 o'clock in the morning." ”
"No, it has to be 10 o'clock, I don't need a tired team." Tang Qianrou closed her eyes after speaking, "Gulal, you two stay in the torture technique, and the others can go and rest." ”
Ma Fei and Chen Taidong looked at the torture technique, the torture technique shook their heads slightly, indicating that they were fine, and then Ma Fei and Chen Taidong left, following the mercenary who was waiting at the entrance of the tent to the big tent opposite.
After the two left, there was a dead silence in the tent, and all that could be heard was the whirring wind outside the tent.
Tang Qianrou was still sitting there, her head tilted and her eyes closed, as if she was dead.
Gulal sat on one side, drinking beer, and kept looking at the torture technique with a hostile gaze, but the torture technique deliberately avoided his eyes, he didn't want to make a move with Tang Qianrou's people at this time.
However, after ten minutes like this, Tang Qianrou's breathing became heavy, as if she was really asleep. The torturer also realized that Tang Qianrou left herself and Gulal here, and it seemed that she really wanted to "listen" to the fight between the two.
Gulal suddenly got up, stood up a folding table next to him, inserted a dagger on the left and right sides of the table, and then pointed to the other side of the table and said, "There is still time, let's play a game." ”
Torture looked at the dagger on the table and asked, "What game?" ”
Gulal grinned: "Break the wrist, whoever breaks the opponent's wrist first, who can reach out and get the dagger, but the human body cannot leave the stool, otherwise it will be considered a loss." ”
Torture got up and walked over, and asked again, "What did you do after you got the dagger?" ”
Gulal took the lead in sitting down and rolled up his sleeves: "Either kill the other party, or spare the other party, it's very simple, right?" ”
The torture technique slowly sat down, looking at the left and right daggers respectively, and knew very well that the moment he pressed down Gulal's wrist, he immediately let go of the opponent's hand, and then pulled out the dagger, during which there was a key problem, that is, the opponent's wrist must cause temporary soreness, otherwise, as long as the opponent kept holding his palm, he would have no way to hold the dagger.
At the same time, the torture technique also considered that if he was suppressed by Gulal, he must take precautions in advance, otherwise, with this guy's skills, the moment he grabbed the dagger, it was very likely that he would cut it directly towards his throat.
"Play, or, don't play?" Gulal had already placed his hand on the table, and when his elbow was on the table, he deliberately pushed very hard, making a muffled sound.
Torture took a deep breath and put his hand on it.
Gular drew his pistol, ricocheted one of the bullets in the magazine into the air, and grabbed Torture's wrist.
The two looked each other straight in the eyes, pricked up their ears and listened, and the moment the bullet landed on the table, they both exerted force at the same time, squeezed each other's wrists, and pressed towards their left side.
To Gulal's great surprise, he had no idea that the man in front of him, who was much thinner than himself, was not moving his right hand, as if he were wrestling with a stone statue.
While the two of them were battling it out in this strange way in the tent, a kilometer away from the camp, a mercenary was galloping towards the area on a fast horse, and the mercenary on horseback looked back behind him from time to time, and at the same time waved the whip in his hand, trying to make the horse under his crotch run faster.
"Quick! Come on! The mercenary shouted, stuffed his horsewhip into the leather bag next to him, grabbed the walkie-talkie again and shouted, "Camp, camp, hear the answer, evacuate quickly, hear please answer!" ”
There was only a rustling of electricity on the walkie-talkie, and the mercenary cursed, turning his head to look at the dark clouds in the air behind him, which should not have been visible in the dark night, but the lightning mixed in the dark clouds, as well as the snow wind that kept hitting him like giant hands, made the mercenary who went out to reconnoiter outside the camp feel the sense of oppression brought by death.
In the camp, except for the four mercenaries who were on guard and patrol, as well as the torture and Gulal in the camp, everyone else had fallen asleep and fell asleep.
The two mercenaries sitting in front of the communicator kept switching between the normal channel and the emergency contact channel, but all they received was a murmur, and they were not aware of the approaching danger.
One of the mercenaries took off his headphones and tossed them aside, picked up his already cold coffee, took a sip, spit it out, and threw the cup out of the tent, but then got up and went out to pick it up, because he only had one coffee cup.
As the mercenary picked up the coffee cup, he saw a flash of light in the sky in the distance, and he looked over there suspiciously, then slowly walked towards the outside of the camp, trying to see more clearly.
Just as he could see clearly that it was a flash of lightning, he realized something, turned and ran towards the tent, shouting, "Snowstorm! It's a snowstorm! Wake up the others, we need to get out of the way! Hurry up! Fast! ”
When the other mercenary heard this, he immediately entered a series of numbers on the walkie-talkie, and after this number was entered, everyone in the camp made a shrill chirp on the walkie-talkie, which was their agreed emergency signal, and it would only be used in critical moments.
At the same time that Gulal's walkie-talkie chirped, Gulal had gradually fallen behind, and he looked at the torture technique sitting opposite with an incredible eye, and he didn't understand why this kid had so much strength? After a stalemate with himself for a long time, he countered himself without using explosive power.
The chirping of the walkie-talkie became louder and louder, and Tang Qianrou at the table gradually sobered up, but she turned a blind eye to the torture and Gulal's actions, just quickly fastened the buttons on her clothes, got up and walked outside, and said as she walked: "Hurry up and come out to gather!" ”
Maybe it was because of the sound of the walkie-talkie and Tang Qianrou's words that made Gulal even more anxious, he felt that his strength was gradually draining, and the rest of his hope was all on the palm that could grasp the torture technique, so that he would not let go of his hand to grab the dagger.
The wind outside the tent grew louder and louder, and the torturer's gaze finally moved from his wrist to Gulal's face, and at the same time, he said, "You lost!" ”
Gulal said angrily: "Impossible! ”
Five seconds after Gulal shouted these words, the torture technique suddenly exerted force, and he knew very well that after Gulal shouted a word in anger, he had exhausted the only explosive power he had, and at that moment, it was a good opportunity for him to completely knock out the other party.
After Gulal realized that he had lost, he was still ready to hold on to the palm of the torture technique, but he didn't expect the torture technique to be so powerful that he directly knocked Gulal from the whole person to the ground.
Gulal slumped to the ground, pinching his wrist, looking at the torture technique standing in front of him, panting, and pinching his wrist in the same way, still not believing that he had lost.
"I have to admit that you are very good." Gural slowly climbed up, "No one in my team has ever won against me. ”
Torture smiled and shook his head: "Do you know why? It's not because you're strong, but because your subordinates all give you face, and if you win against you, you won't be able to get over your face, it's as simple as that, wrenching your wrist is not the same as shooting. ”
When Gulal was embarrassed, a mercenary rushed in and shouted, "Boss, it's not good, the snowstorm is coming!" ”
When Gulal heard the sound, he immediately turned over and got up, and rushed out directly, and the torture technique immediately followed, and the moment the two rushed out, they were almost swept to the ground by a sudden gust of wind.
By the time the two men helped each other up, the camp was in chaos, many of the small tents where the equipment was stored had been scraped away, and the rest of the people were scrambling to carry some of the equipment into the car.
Tang Qianrou stood in the center of the camp, looking at the approaching snow storm clouds, calmly commanding the people around her.
The torture technique ran towards the big tent and opened the curtain, only to find that Ma Fei and Chen Taidong were nowhere to be seen, and immediately shouted around, only to find out after a long time that the two were hiding behind a huge off-road vehicle.
The torture technique approached Ma Fei and said loudly, "You must go immediately!" ”
Ma Fei shook his head: "I got in the car and looked, without the car key, we can't go!" ”
Chen Taidong looked around, and then said: "Torture, now we must follow them to act, otherwise we will die!" ”
Xingshu nodded, turned to look in Tang Qianrou's direction, only to find that Tang Qianrou no longer knew when she appeared behind him.
Tang Qianrou threw a car key to the torture technique, pointed to the car and said, "Get in the car, go, we will follow your car, and you will lead the way." ”
Torture got up: "I'll lead the way?" I'm not familiar with the situation here, what the hell are you trying to do? ”
Tang Qianrou turned around and left, throwing down a sentence: "There is a guide in the car, listen to him." ”
What do you mean? Puzzled, he used the key to open the car door, only to find that there was a child lying in the back seat.
The moment they saw the child, the three of them were shocked, and Ma Fei subconsciously asked, "This is the guide?" Are you kidding? ”
As soon as Ma Fei finished speaking, the child in the back seat slowly got up, and when he got up, he turned on the lights in the car with his hands, and after the lights shone on, the three of them saw clearly that it was not a child, but an old dwarf.
The gnome shivered at the cold wind blowing in, then his eyes widened suddenly, and he shouted in a strange voice, "Get out of the way!" ”
The three criminals immediately got out of the way, and the dwarf jumped out, climbed on the roof of the car, looked into the distance, and then jumped down again, got into the back seat, and looked at the torture and said, "What are you waiting for, if we don't run again, we will die!" Fast! ”
Xingshu glanced at the dark clouds mixed with lightning that were already approaching, and immediately motioned for Ma Fei and Chen Taidong to get into the car, and he also sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and asked at the same time, "In which direction?" ”
The dwarf, who was sitting in the back seat, sandwiched between Ma Fei and Chen Taidong, raised a finger and pointed in the direction where the snowstorm came: "Over there." ”
The torture technique that had just started the car stopped again, turned his head and asked, "Are you crazy?" ”
When the sentence of torture was finished, one of the mercenaries had been blown up by the strong wind and slammed into several equipment boxes piled up next to him, and he immediately lost his breath, while the others all got into the car and began to whistle desperately, urging the head car of torture to quickly lead the way.
Torture glanced through the window at the mercenary who was no longer moving, and then turned to look at the dwarf.
The dwarf didn't say a word, just pointed in that direction.
"!" Torture scolded, "Death is death!" ”
Xingshu stepped on the accelerator, turned the front of the car, and rushed directly in the direction of the snowstorm, his move shocked all the people in the vehicle behind him, and Wan Qingquan, who was sitting in the same car with Tang Qianrou, said angrily: "Is this kid looking for death?" What does he want to do? ”
Tang Qianrou behaved very calmly: "Keep up, this is definitely not his idea, but Angu's, we must believe in Angu, he is the only person who can lead us into the Four Seasons Mountain!" ”
Gulal, who was driving, heard Tang Qianrou say this, so he had to grit his teeth and drive after the head car in front of him, which was gradually approaching the snowstorm, and at the same time kept praying in his heart that nothing would happen.
Although the torture technique in the head car rushed straight towards the snowstorm, because of the fear in his heart, and the fact that a layer of rain and snow had fallen on the surface of the grassland, the car seemed to be moving in a sliding way, so he did not dare to increase his speed, fearing that the car would roll over.
But the dwarf in the back seat kept shouting, "Speed up!" Hasten! Rush over! Rush over! ”
Although Ma Fei and Chen Taidong, who were fastening their seat belts, looked intently ahead, both of them had the urge to raise their hands to kill this dwarf, and they didn't understand why this weird man could be so excited at the moment of life and death.
Unbeknownst to the Torturers, the car he was driving had a high-protection light on the roof, which was constantly flashing white towards the upper end, guiding the vehicles behind him.
Although Tang Qianrou had absolute trust in Angu, after going deep into the snowstorm, her heart instantly lifted, because not only was the road slippery, but the visibility in front of the car was almost zero.
"How can we be so unlucky to encounter a snowstorm!" Gural, who was driving, held the steering wheel tightly, and almost every few minutes forward, he would complain and scold a few words by the way, which made Tang Qianrou, who was sitting next to him, very irritable.
Tang Qianrou finally couldn't help but say, "You give me ......"
Before Tang Qianrou finished speaking, she swallowed back the words behind, because she watched an off-road vehicle beside her suddenly be swept away by a strange force, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant, and even the originally bright lights could not be seen.
"Then ......" Wan Qingquan also looked at dumbfounded, "What is that?" ”
"Keep going! Don't stop! After Tang Qianrou suddenly shouted, her voice sank again, "This is the snow storm, it turns out that this is the snow storm......
