Volume 1 Red Flame Chapter 25 The Rabbit's Revelation

Xiao Chen and Xiao Zhang looked at me in surprise and said in unison, "What's wrong, captain?" ”

I swallowed the rabbit meat in my mouth and looked at them: "Don't you think this rabbit is different from the one you ate yesterday?" ”

Xiao Zhang heard me say this, took a bite and chewed slowly in his mouth: "It seems to be a little stronger than yesterday's one." ”

Xiao Chen also tasted it slowly and said, "Today's one seems to be a little old, and it's not as delicious as yesterday." ”

"You're right, but do you know what the reason might be?" The two of them looked at me blankly.

"Captain, you don't want to sell it." Zhang Yang continued to eat, making a muffled sound.

"Because yesterday the free child was artificially raised, and today it is only wild."

"What! Artificially raised! Xiao Chen came back to his senses first, "So, the enemy's base must be near the area searched yesterday?" ”

"Ahh Zhang Yang coughed sharply, and it took a while to recover and look at me in a daze.

"Okay, you two after eating, take a closer look at the terrain near the rabbit yesterday from the holographic map, and first check the area within a 20-kilometer radius with the rabbit as the center to see where it is more suspicious. I'm going to report this to Command. ”

"Yes, Captain."

When he arrived at the team headquarters, Captain Tom had already finished dinner, his brows were furrowed, and he was staring at the holographic map in a daze. I briefed Captain Tom on what we had discovered, and Tom asked, "You mean this rabbit was raised by the rebels and slipped out of their base?" ”

"Yes, Captain, I can't think of any other possibility."

Tom walked back and forth, and after a long time, he looked up at me and said, "You have a point. He patted me on the shoulder and said, "You've done a good job, give me some next time you catch a rabbit, don't eat it all." ”

"Yes, Captain." I'm a little unnatural, and Tom usually doesn't smile at all.

"Go back and get some rest. The command will discuss it again in the evening, and there will be an operational command tomorrow morning. ”

When I returned to the base, Xiao Chen and Zhang Yang were wearing headsets and were having a heated discussion, and when they saw me come back, they asked, "How is it?" ”

"I said it was going to be discussed, and there would be an announcement tomorrow, but I had a hunch that the enemy's base was in the same place we searched two days ago. By the way, you think it's suspicious on the terrain. ”

"We've taken the elimination approach, and the most likely place is here." Xiao Zhang pointed to the map, and when I saw it, it was the canyon we searched yesterday.

Early the next morning, the order was issued, except for a few mechas, most of the mecha searched the fan-shaped area centered on the place where the rabbit appeared as I expected, and divided into a total of 20 squads, each team was responsible for an area of 13 degrees, with a radius of 25 kilometers, and the canyon that we thought was the most likely was in charge of my team. Before the search, I deliberately explained some precautions, emphasizing that we should pay special attention to details, and not let go of any clues, and any little clue can be the key to the final successful discovery, and everyone in our team should remember this deeply.

The canyon was searched several times, and everyone's faces became more and more impatient, and some people even wanted to search other areas, but every time they brought it up, they were rejected by the command. In the distance, a few small animals jumped around in the branches, occasionally poking their heads out to look at us, the intruders, as if to laugh at our incompetence.

It was a little darker, and the clouds didn't seem to welcome us, and the cloud began to call for its companions, and its companions slowly came from afar, and each of them beckoned to their companions, and the clouds gathered together in groups, as if a great army was rushing towards us.

"Look like it's going to rain so much!"

"According to the data, it will take several years for heavy rains in this area to occur, and we are really lucky to have it." Someone is full of nagging.

Xiao Chen ran over from a distance, and a rare anxious look appeared on his face: "Captain, do you want to go back first?" ”

I looked at Xiao Chen and knew what he was worried about, although these high-tech mecha equipment on our bodies were not afraid of rain, but maintenance after the rain was still indispensable. What's more, after being exposed to the rain, there may be such and such small problems, this expedition is outside, there is no large support base, can be avoided as much as possible.

"Let's get together and discuss!" As the temporary captain of this squad, I already have an idea, but I would like to hear my personal opinion. After a while, everyone arrived.

"My Captain Su, aren't you planning to go back first!" But it was Hans who flew slowly and stopped in front of me, slightly displeased. I smiled, "So, you're going to get drenched in the rain." ”

"Rain isn't necessarily a bad thing, the rain here is so rare, maybe it can wash away the bad luck."

"Any other ideas?" I asked you.

"Captain Su, let's avoid it first, the rain is always not good for the mecha, and this rebel base can't be found in a day or two." One of the team members said in a deep voice.

I looked at Hans and them, looked up at the sky and said: "It's rare to encounter the rain here, and if you miss it, you may regret it, in fact, I called you here to tell you that the universe is very wonderful, and the less likely the event, try to experience it as much as possible under the condition of ensuring safety, this is what one of my elders said." ”

Actually, this is what my father used to tell me, and I often did it, and it gave me a taste of a lot of natural wonders, and sometimes it helped. The team members and mechs are looking for a place to shelter from the rain, there are many caves here, and the place is easy to find.

The clouds are getting thicker and thicker, and the charge is desperately trying to break free from the clouds, "Boom! "The huge amount of electric charges finally found a conduction channel to connect together, and they rushed up to the clouds with desperate cheers, their posture was so gorgeous, and the raindrops were shocked by its beauty, and they came into close contact with the earth, and finally it rained.

The rain was long, and it took almost an hour before it stopped. Everyone came out of their hiding places, the air was mixed with the fragrance of earth, and the heavy rain seemed to wash away everyone's anxiety, and some people looked up to the sky and roared.

The search continued, and the cliffs were washed and looked more verdant. The water is ringing in my ears, and the streams are rushing happily at my feet, wanting to return to its distant homeland. There are also small waterfalls that descend from the cliffs to join the army of streams, and the canyon after the rain shows a different side of it, as if this is its true face.

I was still somewhat attracted by the scenery, and I was a little absent-minded. Along the way, the mountain road was full of potholes, and from time to time there were pools blocking my steps. I walked to a large pool and stopped, this pool is more than a meter deep, about 20 square meters, the water is very clear, the interesting thing is that there is a reflection of a tree next to a stone in the pool, as if it grows out of the crack in the stone, very interesting. Looking at the source of the pool, there is a small stream coming slowly from the mountain, the stream comes from a fairly considerable waterfall in the mountain cliff, the waterfall is two or three hundred meters in front of me, I only see a small section in the middle of the waterfall, the upper and lower parts are blocked by the mountain peak because of the view.

My curiosity came up, I wanted to see the whole picture of this waterfall, after a long detour, through a few low caves, I stood in a small valley surrounded by peaks on three sides and leaving only a rugged entrance, this valley is like being split on the peak by a sword, forming a gap of fifty or sixty meters high, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, this gap is only ten square meters above, and only fifty or sixty square meters below, the trees on the peak are very luxuriant, and there are more stretches of high mountains above the peak, not a specific angle, I really can't see this small valley. When I looked at the rock, it was limestone, not quartz sandstone.

The waterfall was flowing from the middle of the cliff, not from the top. I was stunned, and I was shocked: "Hell, where did this water come from?" The headset gradually enlarged the exit of the waterfall, but I saw that the waterfall seemed to flow out of thin air, but if I looked closely, the color of some of the rocks was still different from the whole. I flew up, just looking at the exit of the waterfall, the width of the waterfall is about one meter wide, flowing out of a rock crack about 30 centimeters high in the mountain, the upper part of the rock crack and the surrounding mountain have obvious color difference, the rock part is prominent, and there are artificial traces faintly visible in the section. I smiled and slowly retreated as I controlled my backpack.

"Boron, boron." I controlled my headset and fired two grenades at the cliff.

"Boom, boom." After a burst of dust, as I expected, a cave appeared on the cliff with a small stream coming from a distance, and this is how the waterfall came from.

I'm not entirely sure if this is the base of the rebels, but judging from the fact that the hole was artificially sealed, it is very likely.

I didn't go in immediately, I summoned all the members of the team first, leaving only some of the mechs still searching outside, the hole should be too big for one person to search, and one person is too dangerous.

I stood at the bottom of the valley and waited, and one after another team members came, and everyone couldn't help but open their mouths wide when they saw the hole.

"No wonder I can't find it, I came to hide in this place!" Zhang Yang was the third to arrive, and he was very surprised to see this hole.

With an excited expression on his face, he slipped up to me in two or two, showed his signature smile, and said with a smile: "Captain, how did you find this place, you don't seem to have seen this hole a few times before?" ”

"It's the flowing water that guides me." I deliberately sold it, "As for this hole, of course I couldn't see it the first few times, because I just blew it up." When I said this, Zhang Yang was stunned when he heard it.

After all the team members were in place, I left six mechs to guard the perimeter before sending a signal to the base. We reported that we had found something suspicious, and asked for additional manpower, and after sending it, we flew into the cave with all the other mechs and team members.
