Chapter 111: Positional Warfare (2)
An Xiaoyu finally chose to join the students and follow the three teams to leave through the underground air defense passage. She looked at Guan Jue, who was following her, and said disdainfully: "You're not a student, are you embarrassed?" ”
Guan Jue spread his hands and said: "You are not so arrogant as a cultivator, I will play chess with what kohlrabi is pretending to, the dog's life is important, the dog's life is important." ”
An Xiaoyu knew that this was all an excuse, and the purpose of Guan Jue's coming to the base should only be to explore the people or groups near the base that were threatening to the base. No matter what happens, knowing the information you want, after that, it is not something that Guan Jue can solve.
Ignoring Guan Jue, An Xiaoyu looked at this dilapidated passage, and was a little puzzled, since the students were able to leave through the air defense channel, why couldn't Captain Li send someone to go out directly through the air defense channel, and wait for the base to contact the imperial capital and ask them to send more people.
But immediately, An Xiaoyu understood.
Ten members of the third team led them into the air defense channel, destroyed the entrance with *, and set up trigger traps along the road, but there were no pursuers behind them, but after walking for more than ten minutes to a fork in the road, they did not see the exit of the air defense channel.
The students remained in the passage where they came, and two soldiers placed * on one of the forks, blocked the forks with gravel, and then they walked to another fork. An Xiaoyu understood that this was a suspicious plan, but she didn't expect that blowing up the fork in the road was just the first link.
Not long after turning the corner, the third captain walked directly to a dark corner and stepped on a stone, so the wall on the other side that seemed to be tightly closed actually opened a door, and a downward building appeared in front of An Xiaoyu's eyes.
The whole group entered through the secret door in the wall, went down the stairs, and gradually heard the sound of the water. The stairs soon came to an end, and An Xiaoyu saw that in the light of the flashlight, there was a slowly flowing river, lying peacefully in the underground passage.
This passage is not like a passage dug manually. The cone-shaped stones on the top of her head dripped water drops from time to time, falling on An Xiaoyu's shoulders and the top of her head, and one drop happened to fall on her lips, she licked it, it felt very sweet, it was pure groundwater.
An Xiaoyu didn't know where this passage leads, but it obviously takes a long time to reach their destination, maybe the place they went out was near the imperial capital, maybe in the mountains farther away from the imperial capital, or maybe in another real military base.
No matter what they were facing in front of them, those soldiers behind them would obviously have to face two powerful cultivators.
Although a practitioner cannot cause mass killing on people, this statement is flawed. An Xiaoyu fell at the back of the team and discussed with Guan Jue in a low voice: "Cultivators can't kill indiscriminately, they can only attack people who are destined to die by the Heavenly Dao, so does this mean that if they trap people in a tree in the deep mountains and old forests, at this time, the Heavenly Dao will determine that no one will pass by here for the next four days, and the person who is tied up will die, so that the cultivator can directly attack?" ”
Guan Jue nodded: "The situation you mentioned, although it may not be easy to use, is true." Cultivators can't indiscriminately create the rule of killing, there are many loopholes to exploit, and there are many ways to deceive the Heavenly Dao. Because of the existence of the tomb keeper, the guardian of the rules of heaven and earth does not need to be paid attention to by the Heavenly Dao at all times, so the Heavenly Dao is actually very idle, and the great cultivators deceive the Heavenly Dao to hold the handle. ”
"Then you still say that cultivators can't go on a killing spree?" An Xiaoyu glared at him.
"Isn't there still a grave keeper? If there is a large number of deaths, the grave keeper will appear. ”
"What did the administrator do last time to be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao?"
"We don't have the right to know about Yushou's affairs."
"Huh? Is he so ranked? ”
"Yes, to be honest, Jade guarding this continent is equivalent to slaughtering a novice village at the full level, and only the system can sanction him."
"emmmmm, then you say, will the soldiers in the base be killed by the Confusing Star?"
Guan Jue shook his head: "Do you remember what they said?" ”
"They said so much..."
"They said, 'The man has money, and he takes away the troubles of others.'"
"So what?"
"So that is, they were hired, and the target of them was you sixty students. As far as I know, practitioners are arrogant, but when a practitioner who does not have the support of a large force needs resources, he needs to take on the task of hiring. ”
Guan Jue did not hesitate to tell An Xiaoyu the information he knew: "Of course, there are also different types of employment tasks, there are legal tasks issued under the supervision of formal authorities, there are also private tasks issued by big forces directly contacting cultivators, and there must also be illegal tasks that are traded behind the scenes. ”
"But the arrogance of the cultivators determines their way of doing things, even if they are in dire need of money and take on an illegal task, like the one that robbed the students, they will not do anything other than the mission. Killing people also requires additional money. ”
"Confusing Star and Cholera came to the base, and the attack helicopters were only there to keep the students at the base, not to kill the military personnel. They are already on the opposite side of the Empire, which means that the price offered by the mercenary can in their hearts offset the consequences of plundering the students. ”
"And it can only counteract such consequences."
"That is to say, if they kill some of the people in the base, not only will they have to exert great efforts to deceive the Heavenly Dao, but they will also have to bear the huge pressure of the imperial military, so that the price they get will not be worth it."
An Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's good, that's good." ”
Looking up at the road ahead, they had been walking for more than half an hour, there was no signal underground, and they had no idea where they had been.
Leng Yan and Xu He Wei walked in front of the team, and from time to time they had to look back to see where An Xiaoyu was, at this time, An Xiaoyu would always feel it in advance, and couldn't help but shrink his head and not let them see it.
It's not that An Xiaoyu hates these two boys, to be honest, her relationship with Leng Yan is still very good, especially after the warm-up task, they have worked hard together for so many days, and An Xiaoyu is not a femme fatale.
But I don't know why, she just wants to avoid them, or because Guan Jue is next to her, and Guan Jue and Chi Mo are old acquaintances. Maybe it's because I don't want them to talk about fighting against the cultivators again, and I'm afraid of putting everyone else on board.
In short, An Xiaoyu has been hiding at the back of the team and has not shown up.
Guan Jue saw that An Xiaoyu shrank his head from time to time, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "You are so sensitive now?" ”
An Xiaoyu blushed: "You are sensitive!" Your whole family is sensitive! ”
"Uh..."
Guan Jue felt that An Xiaoyu was getting more and more difficult to deal with, he had lost a pure girl who could be flirted with casually, and he didn't dare to blame the administrator for teaching the mascot of their Lu Ertrio badly, life was really helpless.
Of course, An Xiaoyu's changes are not only in the sharp teeth, and along the way, An Xiaoyu has already begun to worry about the situation in the future. In the face of such a great cultivator, An Xiaoyu had to think about the situation that they would still be intercepted when they walked out of the passage.
If the place to go out is another military base, there is some hope, but it is impossible to connect the two bases through things like air-raid shelters and underground waterways, otherwise if one base falls, then the second will fall immediately?
You can kill a designer and sacrifice to the sky.
The administrator once said to An Xiaoyu that when a practitioner reaches a new realm, it is inevitable to echo the karmic reincarnation between heaven and earth, because this is the means by which heaven and earth actively control living beings. Therefore, whether it is to enter the Tao with martial arts or to enter the Tao with oneself, those who have reached the realm of confusion and cholera are likely to be able to sense the direction in which all the students are leaving.
If you really meet those two people at the exit, then what should you do?
An Xiaoyu thought about it again and again, and finally found the two soldiers behind the hall at the back of the team and asked about this secret passage.
One of the two soldiers looked to be older, and after thinking for a while, He An whispered: "I don't know the specific situation, the underground water flow connected by this air defense channel was used many years ago. ”
"There have been some records in the base, and it is said that it is one of the many secret passages established after the imperial capital was threatened by the air supremacy of a certain race. And our training base exists to cover up this secret passage. ”
"It was only by relying on some secret passages like this that the empire was able to quickly and completely eliminate the alien race after it unexpectedly attacked the base of the alien race. And these secret passages have also been set aside in case of emergency. ”
"At the end of this secret passage, it seems to be a temple with a long history. It is a primitive faith temple built by the indigenous people living in this place before the Great War of the Ten Thousand Races. The scale of the temple is large and the internal structure is complex. ”
"Without the guidance of someone who knows the map, few people will be able to find a way out of the temple, let alone find the exit to the secret passage."
When An Xiaoyu heard this, she began to understand: "Captain Li means to let all the students hide in the temple and wait for the rescue of the imperial capital's reinforcements?" ”
The older soldier nodded.
Seeing the soldiers' affirmation, An Xiaoyu's heart was a little calm, if this was really the case, even if it was a cultivator, it would be difficult to find them accurately in the temples full of secret paths.
The other two ways of cultivation, due to the different starting points and purposes of the practice, lead to great power in the early stage, but lack the ability to sense heaven and earth. So, when they arrived at the temple, the students were still safe. Unless they destroy the entire temple.
Guan Jue watched An Xiaoyu talk to the soldier from the side, and did not interject. From the beginning of this incident, I don't know why, An Xiaoyu always felt that Guan Jue was exercising herself. Could it be that this poisonous snake wants to train itself to be a successor?
Thinking of this, An Xiaoyu couldn't help but shudder, and reached out and pushed Guan Jue's arm: "You go over there?" ”
Guan Juezheng was watching it with relish, and was suddenly ostracized, a little inexplicable: "What's wrong?" ”
An Xiaoyu looked disgusted: "It's nothing, anyway, where do you go." ”
Guan Jue was pushed by her and couldn't stand on his feet, and he took two steps to the side, a little unbearable, what's wrong?
An Xiaoyu didn't care if he had any small emotions, he was still at the back of the team, thinking deeply about this incident, no matter whether there were pursuers behind them, and whether there was danger waiting for them ahead, in short, An Xiaoyu felt that something was wrong.
But what's wrong?
An Xiaoyu raised her head to look at the long line in front of her, the sound of water resounded in the dark hole, the water splashed in the light of the flashlight's fiasco, and the figures and stalactites above their heads reflected the overlapping shadows.
It made her a little confused.
