Chapter 559: Soul Minefield
He Changqing squatted down and looked at the corpse of the demon, but smiled: "It turns out that this thing can also be killed by bullets." β
Tang Qianlin looked ahead: "The key is that we don't even have a gun." β
Everyone also understood that in fact, the lone army did not plan to withdraw at all, but was going to come here to find the Truth Listening Beast, so the Five Elements Pill would be placed in the hall. It's just that the people in the Lone Army Research Institute didn't expect that the dust would raid here, and they didn't expect Wei Chiran and the others to follow.
However, Wei Chiran also doubted, did Lone Army really not think of it? Countless facts have proven that Saker is a good calculator, and he can even calculate the planning steps years later.
The four of them continued to move forward, following the bullet casings left behind, and finally found two human corpses, both of them wearing black combat suits, and the combat clothes were also equipped with armor, but these armor had been torn to shreds, and even the steel plate of the chest guard was covered with claw marks.
Tang Qianlin picked up the chest protection plate: "These demons should not be underestimated. β
The two men were covered in scars, and one of their arms was directly torn off, but even so, the two fought to the end.
After inspecting the corpse, the lieutenant Chi Ran said, "These are not ordinary soldiers, they are a lone human corpse combat team. β
Several people had read Wei Chiran's report, and knew that even if the soldiers of these corpse combat teams were shot, they could kill the enemy on the premise of being seriously wounded, after all, they didn't know pain, they only knew about fighting.
Tang Anshu picked up the AR assault rifle on the ground and checked: "The gun is fine, it can still be used." Saying that, Tang Anshu threw another assault rifle to Tang Qianlin, but Tang Qianlin gave it to Wei Chiran, just picked up the pistols of the two and took one himself, hesitated, and handed it to He Changqing.
He Changqing took the pistol: "You're not afraid that I will shoot you from behind?" β
Tang Qianlin didn't answer, but Tang Anshu said, "Has anyone ever told you that your EQ is very low?" β
He Changqing just smiled and checked the pistol: "There are only four magazines." β
Each pistol had four magazines, while the assault rifles added up to three, and the combat backpacks carried by the two men were also shredded, but the contents had been taken, leaving only two grenades and a white phosphorus round, apparently their companions who had taken the necessary things.
Continuing forward, the previous scene is even more cruel, there are corpse soldiers and demon corpses everywhere, from the situation at the scene, it can be analyzed that the human corpse soldiers formed a fire network to try to kill those attacking demons, but those demons took the method of close combat, and swarmed from all directions, so that the weapons in the hands of the soldiers could not exert their maximum power, and even many dead human corpse soldiers were covered with bullet holes.
Indeed, shooting at close range, coupled with incomparable confusion, can easily injure one's own people by mistake.
Everyone picked up the assault rifles on the ground, collected weapons and ammunition and continued to move forward, but no gunshots were heard. So, this group of lone human corpse soldiers probably entered this place at least a day before them, and experienced brutal battles here, but what was the final result?
Wei Chiran said worriedly, "Could it be that the lone army has already taken away the Listening Beast?" β
Tang Qianlin walked in front with a gun: "I don't know, but this section of the road has not left any traces of battle." β
Further on, there is a slope, the slope is full of bones, judging from the dress on the bones, it should not be a modern person, maybe it is the craftsman hired by the Iron Cloak Gate to build this place. The bones were neatly arranged on both sides, and they all sat cross-legged on the floor, and if they were not dressed in tattered clothes and changed into Buddhist robes, I am afraid that they would have thought that they were all monks sitting here.
Tang Qianlin seemed to have found something, signaled the people behind him to stop, and slowly approached a skeleton next to him, illuminated the back of the skeleton with a flashlight, and found the charm pasted on the back, and then looked up in the direction of the charm, and saw that the iron net composed of iron chains was full of flags full of runes.
Wei Chi raised his eyes and looked: "What are those flags?" β
"The Conjuring Banner," Tang explained, "is a trap, and if we move these bones, or step on the mechanism, these bones will come back to life." β
The lieutenant asked chisely: "Those lone soldiers seem to know it, so they avoid the mechanism and go forward." β
Tang Qianlin pointed to the ground of the slope and said: "There are soul sealing urns buried in the ground, each urn has a lid, but the lid is fragile, and if you step on it, the soul inside will be released, and the soul will naturally be absorbed by the surrounding charms, and the charms will control the soul to attack with these bones, so you follow my footprints, don't take a wrong step." β
Tang Anshu said: "This is like a minefield, once we step on it, we will be in big trouble." β
Wei Chi asked strangely: "But why didn't the lone army trigger at all?" β
"The reason is very simple," He Changqing already had the answer, "There are people from the Iron Cloak Gate to lead them, and they must not be low-status, at least they are a law master, so it turns out that the Tie Cloak Gate has reached some kind of agreement with the lone army." β
Tang Qianlin said: "Don't talk nonsense, no matter whether anyone leads them or not, you have to follow me." β
Tang Qianlin slowly stabbed the ground in front of him with the head of the Xia Feng spear, the speed was very slow, and after walking a few steps, he found that this slope was very strange, and it was impossible to leave obvious footprints at all, so the people who followed behind could only use their eyes to recognize the location where Tang Qianlin had walked.
β
In Rongcheng, in the He family's mansion, Zhan Tianya, Hu Shuntang, Tang She, He Chenxue and He Lianshan watched a news program on TV in the living room, and the theme of the program was the coup d'Γ©tat of country T.
Although the first phase of the coup was successful, a group of people from the coup army stormed the palace and tried to attack the royal family, and engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the royal guards. The royal guards repelled more than a dozen attacks by the coup army, and finally insisted on the support of the border troops who arrived in time, completely wiped out the coup forces, and captured many people alive.
The general who carried out the coup d'Γ©tat before issued a statement stating that the soldiers who broke into the palace had nothing to do with them, and then it was reported that these coup soldiers were actually troops of PW, the most famous intelligence agency in country T, so it can be concluded that PW was also involved in this coup, and maybe the coup was led by PW.
Zhan Tianya looked at the TV screen and said: "Sure enough, the whole thing began to be broken into parts, and the lone army directly turned PW into the leader of the coup d'Γ©tat, directly attacking the royal family, if it is only against the government cabinet of country T, the coup soldiers will still get the support of some people, but once the gun is pointed at the royal family, it will not get anyone's support." β
Hu Shuntang drank milk tea, and handed the empty cup to He Lianshan: "The lone army must have instigated those generals to carry out a coup d'Γ©tat, and how could those generals know the relationship between the lone army and PW, in fact, the lone army just wants PW to disappear forever in the history of country T, so that the lone army will disappear again and cease to exist." β
Tang She nodded and said: "According to Saker's calculations, this coup can be successful, but his purpose is not to succeed, only if it is not successful, can the royal family directly ban PW, and the lone army will disappear, so that those organizations that have already targeted PW have no way to start." β
Because a coup d'Γ©tat will bring chaos, and often the investigation made in the chaos is the most unreliable, and the lone army can take advantage of the chaos of the whole country in T country to disappear into the darkness again, even if someone comes forward to say that the lone army is wearing PW's protective cloak, no one is interested anymore, because PW no longer exists.
Hu Shuntang was very worried: "The most terrible thing now is that all the lone soldiers have returned to China, and their way to hide their identities is very simple, that is, they are scattered among the other eleven sects, if 517 investigates the other eleven sects, those sects will not agree." β
He Chenxue nodded and said: "Even if it is me, I will not agree, so that there will be no more place to stand, as long as there is a compromise, 517 will have a second and third time, and even in the future, the so-called supervisors will be sent to Huangquan." β
At this moment, the emergency news was broadcast in the news, and several arrested so-called PW leaders appeared on the screen, although the screen flashed, but the appearance of Hou Wan, Saker and Heluo still appeared.
There is no doubt that these three people are just replicants, and I am afraid that even they themselves don't know that they are clones, so they struggle desperately there, but in the end they are suppressed by the soldiers, and the most terrifying thing is that Heluo actually tried to snatch the gun and was shot dead by the soldiers on the spot.
Zhan Tianya smiled: "This scene is too much, right?" was arrested and killed in front of the whole world, and if their ontology appeared again in the future, no one would believe that the royal family of country T would also call the ontology of the appearance fake for the sake of image, and the lone army even counted the political influence in it, there are really theirs. β
The news host said that the coup was nearing the end, and the three generals who first led the coup had surrendered, and claimed that they were bewitched by PW and other intelligence services, that they would always be loyal to the royal family, and that the purpose of their coup was only to protect the royal family.
Zhan Tianya shook his head when he heard this: "The reason for the coup is on the side of the Qing monarch, and the reason for the anti-coup is also on the side of the Qing monarch, how ridiculous, but it will be regarded as reasonable by the world." β
Hu Shuntang said: "No matter what, it is actually us who is isolated, if Zhan Wangba's analysis is correct, then the current 517 should be an alliance with other heretical sects, and this alliance will deal with not only dust, but also us." β
Tang She quipped: "Interesting, now it has become a three-legged situation." β
He Lianshan, who was holding the tray, said beside him: "The three-legged stand is not enough, we don't have any strength to compete with the other two, so in fact, it is not the lone army that is hidden underground, but us." β
Everyone looked at He Lianshan, and He Lianshan just smiled slightly. Indeed, what He Lianshan said makes sense, now whether from the perspective of 517 or from the perspective of different ways, Zhan Tianya, Hu Shuntang and others are stumbling blocks, and they must move this stumbling block.
Zhan Tianya got up and said, "I want to go and talk to Lao He." β
Tang She immediately objected: "It's too dangerous, this is tantamount to throwing yourself into a net." β
Hu Shuntang agreed: "I also think we should talk about it, at least to find out whether Lao He has made up his mind to ally with the lone army." β
He Chenxue asked, "What if he is really determined to do that?" What do we do next? β
