Chapter Twenty-Three: A Moment

Li Chengjing probably told them about Leng Chuxian's accompaniment to receive arms, and the most important thing now is to inquire about the location of 'Zaixing Wharf'. This is not difficult, Guicheng is just a wharf. Nine times out of ten, pedestrians on the street know that there is this wharf, and when they ask, they know that at the end of Songyuan Road in the north of the city, they see the shore.

They walked for a while, seeing that they were getting closer and closer, Duan Shaoling analyzed: "You guys were in a hurry in the cafeteria just now, and you didn't eat, so let's really go and eat first." Even if you want to find someone, you have to have enough strength, not to mention that Minister Xie must take someone to investigate the scene at this moment, it would be bad if we rushed to bump into it. Wouldn't it be better for us to sneak over when they're gone? ”

Chen Zui stopped first, "Shaoling is right, the more worried you are, the more calm you have to be, just eat something." ”

Li Chengjing was anxious just now, but now she has come to her senses, what they said is right, and they are no longer impulsive.

There are many noodle stalls on the street, they are not picky, let alone picky, they walked to the nearest noodle restaurant and sat down, Duan Shaoling had lunch, and the two of them each ordered a bowl of noodles. After a while, when they were in front of them, they realized that they were really hungry, and after eating like a mouthful, they paid and immediately set off north.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I arrived at the end of Songyuan Road, and saw the black head on the opposite side, and the innermost ones were wearing the military uniforms of the school, and Minister Xie led people to investigate there.

They hid outside the crowd and did not dare to approach, and after a while, Minister Xie led the men and horses to the west, and the crowd around the dock also dispersed. There are still traces of damage from shelling on the edge of the pier, and the deep bullet holes in the ground also indicate that there was a shootout here a few hours ago.

Although the principal said that Leng Chuxian was captured alive, looking at the countless bloodstains next to the bullet holes, Li Chengjing secretly wondered if Leng Chuxian was also injured now?

Chen Zui looked around, and thought, to the east is the main gate of Guicheng, presumably the bandits dare not go from there, otherwise Minister Xie directly sent troops to pursue, why bother to come here again. The south of the city is surrounded by mountains, and it is impossible for them to cross the mountains with arms and hostages, this is a waterway, and it is impossible for them to arrange ships here in advance. The only possibility is that they are heading west.

"We quietly followed Minister Xie all the way, firstly, we can track down the whereabouts of the bandits, and secondly, with Minister Xie's people to contain the bandits, we can also take the opportunity to rescue Chu Xian."

Both of them agreed with Chen's statement, * Walking down, the road behind is a mountain path, and there are many dense forests on both sides, whether it is hiding, escaping, or ambushing, it is the best place. There are also many rut marks of different shades and shapes on the ground.

There is a deeper one that must be the bandits' car, because their car is still carrying arms, I wonder if Minister Xie has caught up with them? If they do, will the two sides be at a stalemate now? What about the situation? They stepped up their pace, hoping to arrive and help.

"Bang, bang, bang......" Suddenly there were several gunshots not far ahead, and after a few seconds of interlude, the gunfire continued, and it seemed that the two sides had met and officially started to move. They followed the sound and came to a wooded area, where they saw that the two sides were fighting with guns in their respective armored vehicles.

The other party was all dressed in the clothes of ordinary bandits, and they were masked, so they couldn't see who did it at all. Minister Xie's marksmanship is really good, each shot can knock down an enemy, even the people brought by Minister Xie are all good hands, and their marksmanship is much better than that of such bandits.

Seeing that the gunfight had the upper hand, the bandits no longer fought hard, and used the body as a shield to throw hand bombs at Minister Xie, who did not dare to move forward rashly, and the two sides were still in a stalemate.

After a pause, Minister Xie poked out half of his mind and said loudly: "As long as you return the arms and release the hostages, I can let you leave here." ”

"Bang bang" twice, the guns on the opposite side came over, and they completely ignored Minister Xie's warning. Minister Xie dodged, and several shots were all fired on the edge of the body, the sonorous sound was very harsh, and Minister Xie also took the opportunity to return the two shots from them.

One of the bandits suddenly burst out laughing, and the rest of the bandits did not move at all at this time, and it could be seen that he was the big leader among the bandits, "The commander on the other side is really good marksmanship, but don't forget, there is also a girl in the car, the bullet has no eyes, if you accidentally hurt someone, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to go back." His voice was fearless, and it was expected that as long as Leng Chuxian was in their hands, it would be enough for them to cast a mouse.

"Who are you? What do you want? ”

The man continued to sneer: "As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, of course we only seek wealth, and we don't want to harm people's lives. Please go back and discuss with your principal, 200,000 oceans, plus this batch of arms, I will release that girl. ”

"Shameless !!"

"What this girl means to your school, I think you know better than I do, your principal is a smart man, he should know what to do."

Their questions and answers were always through the armored car, and neither of them showed their faces.

Minister Xie was in a dilemma, and he didn't know what was behind him, and with a bang, he swept past and smashed into the body. This one was not very loud, far less loud than the sound of gunfire. But at this time, the two sides were facing each other, and this sound also made Minister Xie vigilant, and immediately turned the muzzle of the gun to the back, and several soldiers around him also turned the head of the gun

But he saw a young man dressed as a student, with his hands raised, tiptoeing towards him, he knew this student, who was one of the several students who had come back from drinking that night, and was even more surprised by his sudden appearance, "Why are you here?" ”

"Minister Xie, please take a look." Duan Shaoling pointed his right hand in the direction where Li Chengjing and Chen Zui were hiding, and then said a quick sentence in Minister Xie's ear, and Minister Xie looked at him in disbelief.

Duan Shaoling said: "Now the time is urgent, it is important to save people, please Minister Xie follow the plan." ”

Minister Xie thought about it for a while, and it seemed that he could only agree with Duan Shaoling's words.

Minister Xie turned around and continued to say loudly to the bandit leader: "I can promise you this matter, but you must let me see the safety of the hostages first. As soon as I see the hostages, I will immediately send someone to talk back to the principal. Minister Xie fearlessly stepped out from behind the car and exposed himself to the eyes of the enemy, his pistol turned backwards to show his sincerity in the peace talks.

"Good!" The bandit leader also left, and couldn't help but praise him, "This chief is really bold, I admire you." ”

"Get in the car and get that girl down."

A bandit opened the door of the second armored car and went up to bring a girl down, it was Leng Chuxian. Her hands were tied, except for her embarrassed expression, there was no trace of being beaten, and even her mouth was not sealed with a strip of cloth, these bandits were still a little polite to her, which also shows how amazing the value behind Leng Chuxian is.

"Tell your chief, girl, to see if we're being polite to you?"

Although Leng Chuxian was controlled by others, he did not show the slightest cowardice and fear of death, and shouted loudly to Minister Xie: "That batch of arms is on the first car, you don't have to worry about me, go and grab it back." ”

The bandit leader was not annoyed, nor did he close her mouth, and sneered: "You and I both know that they will not disregard your safety for the sake of arms, you better wait patiently for them to take money to ransom you." With a look, the bandit dragged her into the car again.

"Now you see the hostages, it's getting late, we're going to get out of the city before dark, you go back and get ready for the ocean."

At this moment, I heard a muffled sound behind me, which came from the armored car, and the bandit leader turned very fast, knowing that something must have happened, and when he was about to rush to help, he suddenly heard the gunfire on the opposite side again, and suddenly two brothers next to him were shot and fell to the ground.

Chen Zui and the three of them arrived behind the woods, and saw that Minister Xie was restrained because Leng Chuxian was still in their hands, and they didn't dare to kill the enemy wholeheartedly. The three of them discussed for a while, and the strength of the three of them alone could not fight these bandits with guns after all, and the best way was to let Minister Xie contain their main force, and then the three of them quietly rescued people from behind.

So Duan Shaoling quietly came to Minister Xie's side and told him this plan, asking him to lure the enemy to bring Leng Chuxian out, and the three of them took the opportunity to save people, once they saved people, Minister Xie no longer had any scruples about those bandits.

Minister Xie ordered a complete annihilation of the enemy to prevent them from freeing their hands to chase after the four students. In this way, sure enough, those bandits had no choice but to meet the enemy in an all-round way, and they no longer had time to scruple about the hostages. The hostages had escaped unharmed, and Minister Xie's morale was greatly boosted, and in an instant, most of the enemy had been killed or wounded.

After the three of them rescued Leng Chuxian, they didn't have time to untie the rope in their hands for her, Li Chengjing pulled her to run towards Minister Xie's camp, Chen Zui and Duan Shaoling covered them behind, and they could reach safety in a few moments, and suddenly heard a gunshot behind them, and when Chen Zui turned around, the gun was facing two girls.

Chen Zui stepped out with an arrow step, and his arms were stretched out at the same time to put his arms on the shoulders of the two girls, "Get down!" The bullet slipped from between their sideburns, sending a burst of sparks on the ground. Following the sound of gunfire from the front, several shots were fired into the back, and it was the school's gendarmes who came to meet them.

"Chen Zui, are you injured?" As they lay down, Li Chengjing heard a low muffled snort. Reaching out to touch Chen's left shoulder, the blood had already stained her palm red through his shoulder, and the clothes on his left shoulder had been half dyed red.

Duan Shaoling helped Chen Zui to sit down under the tree, pulled the clothes off his shoulder, a burning wound was still bubbling blood, it must have been the bullet that happened to pass his shoulder when he was saving people. Secretly frightened, if Chen was drunk more slowly, the bullet would have to pass through his left shoulder.

The rope on Leng Chuxian's hand had been untied, and seeing that Chen Zui's wound was bleeding, he took out his embroidered handkerchief from his arms and tied the wound for Chen Zui, and in a moment, her handkerchief was already red.
