Chapter 151: Sudden Sense of Dependence
Early the next morning, Zhang Le rode a bald eagle and Shen Wei rode a flamingo, and the two headed for Djibouti. As for the others, they stayed where they were and waited. I don't know how Gianna brainwashed Miss Dolphin last night, but the dolphins didn't follow up today.
The two giant birds fly extremely fast, reaching an average of about two hundred kilometers per hour. The flamingo that Shen Wei rode was one of the thirteen flamingos that were baptized by the rain of golden restoration, and at this time, the fleshy crown on their heads had begun to grow, and the shape became like a small tree, and the color was also green, which was extremely strange.
Now even this mutated giant bald eagle is honest in front of these thirteen flamingos, and it is no longer the leader of the flamingo flock as before.
Around noon, the two came to the skies over Djibouti. Shen Wei had been here before and was very familiar with the place. He led the way to lower the altitude and prepared to land. Djibouti was desolate, with almost all the buildings as far as the eye could see turned to flat ground, and clumps of weeds protruding from the cracks in the concrete in the ruins.
"What's wrong with Djibouti, why are there so many weapons attacking here?" The wind was strong in the air, Zhang Le asked loudly.
"Several major countries have military bases here, so this place should be taken care of!" Shen Wei shouted.
The two of them fell towards their former base. The entire base is in ruins, and only the square still has dozens of square meters of flat space.
"Do you think there's anyone else at the base?" Zhang Le asked.
"I don't know, the last time I came, there was a basement here, maybe someone was down there." Shen Wei replied.
The two giant birds fell to the ground, and the two rolled down. There was rubble, rubble, cement blocks, and several huge potholes everywhere. There was silence all around.
As if to prove what Shen Wei said, a red light suddenly swept over from the shadow of one of the largest ruins, and then a piercing electronic howl sounded. This sound is very harsh, similar to the sound of a shovel turning the sand grains in the pot, and the power is very high, even Zhang Le, after hearing this sound, he is a little uncomfortable. Shen Wei's face became even paler.
"We are Chinese, are there any survivors here?" Zhang Le shouted into the shadows of the ruins that glowed red.
With Zhang Le's eyesight, of course, he can see the situation inside. What emits red light is a semi-circular black device with a glossy surface, which is supposed to resemble a monitor, but with an infrared scanning function attached. The horn that made the sound was hidden in other ruins, there were three places, and Zhang Le had already located the horn through the virtual roots.
No voice answered. The whistle of the horn continued, and Shen Wei covered his ears with a painful expression, but he still insisted on not leaving. The two giant birds had already flapped their wings and flew into the sky, hovering over them.
"We are Chinese, are there any survivors here?" Zhang Le asked again. After a pause, Zhang Le continued: "Listen, the people inside, if you don't turn off the horn again, I will destroy your horn." Thirty meters at nine o'clock, sixteen meters at four o'clock, and twelve meters at one o'clock. I'll start counting now, one, two, ......."
With a ding, the horn stopped screaming, and a strange voice with a slightly old age came from the horn: "What are your identities?" If you're not a government worker, don't bother me, I'm busy and don't have time to waste time with irrelevant people. "This voice is clearly not a human voice, it should be an electronic synthesis.
Zhang Le looked back at Shen Wei.
Shen Wei was also a little puzzled, he took a breath, shook his head, relieved the aftermath of the screaming in his head, and shouted into the shadows: "I am Shen Wei, the former artillery of the 39th Group Army, and later joined the United Nations peacekeeping force in Somalia, in 2021, I went to the Djibouti base with Chief Chang Wanlin, and met Battalion Commander He Fenghe. ”
There was silence for a few seconds, and then he said, "You guys better go, everyone is dead, there's no need to watch!" ”
Shen Wei looked at Zhang Le, but Zhang Le couldn't get an idea. Shen Wei thought for a while and said resolutely: "No matter what, I still want to go down and take a look, how can I go down!" ”
This time there was silence for a longer time, and after a full minute and a half, he continued: "Come if you want, come on, there is nothing to see, I hope you don't regret it!" You go thirty meters to the left, and there is a half-fallen wall, and over the wall, there is a collapsed basement, and there is a diagonal hole in the basement from which you can climb down. ”
Shen Wei was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly walked to the left first. Zhang Le followed slowly behind.
After the collapsed wall, the two of them saw a basement that had collapsed most of it. With their heads down, the two entered the basement along the collapsed slope. The Djibouti region has a dry climate, and although the basement is open, the inside is not humid. The basement was clean, except for the wind-blown sand, only a few large rusty oil drums in the corners, and nothing else, and it seemed that the retreat was not in a hurry.
On the intact side of the basement, there was indeed a diagonal hole. The slope of the cave is about forty-five degrees, which is a bit steep, and the shape of the hole is square, and the length and width are only about fifty centimeters. The surface of the cave is smooth, the material is polished stone, and there is no place to grip.
Shen Wei looked inside, the entrance of the cave was bent, and he couldn't see the situation inside. But he didn't hesitate, and jumped right in with his feet. Zhang Le waited for a few seconds, and then slid down with him.
The hole is S-shaped, and it is unexpectedly deep, not less than 30 meters.
Plop, Shen Wei was the first to the end, he landed on top of an elastic thing, and the hole was pitch black. Shen Wei's body is fully mutated, and he naturally has night vision. But the premise of night vision is that there is a glimmer of light, moonlight, starlight, or light emitted by flora and fauna minerals, in the dark cave, none of this, Shen Wei has completely become blind.
He reached out and groped around, and found that things seemed to be a little wrong. Why is it that he seems to be in a net, and besides, it is a very strong and narrow net. Shen Wei tugged on the net rope hard, but with his strength, he couldn't tear it off.
"Anyone?" Shen Wei shouted loudly. There was an echo throughout the space, and no one answered. Shen Wei was a little frightened.
"By the way, where is Zhang Le?" After Shen Wei felt scared, he immediately thought of Zhang Le. At this time, he suddenly remembered that Zhang Le had not fallen. In Shen Wei's eyes, Zhang Le is omnipotent, although he doesn't admit it, but deep down he has already regarded Zhang Le as a god-like existence.
Thinking of Zhang Le, Shen Wei's nervous and frightened mood was immediately relieved. He stopped shouting and began to listen intently to the sounds around him. Since Zhang Le didn't come down, no matter what the situation was, Zhang Le must have discovered something. Judging from the current situation, this person who is underground is certainly not completely benevolent, otherwise it would not have appeared until now.
There was still no sound, but Shen Wei felt the movement of air, although it was very slight, but the feeling of air brushing over the hairs was amplified in the silent and lightless environment.
"At least not to be suffocated. Whatever the intentions of this person underground, it seems that sooner or later he will meet with him. Shen Wei was relieved.
In the darkness, Shen Wei lost the concept of time, so he began to count silently to estimate the time he was trapped.
When Shen Wei counted to two thousand and one, suddenly there was a loud "clang" behind him, and a strong light shone in. Shen Wei's heart jumped, and he turned his head with difficulty, a door, a light, and a person.
Suddenly seeing the light again, Shen Wei's eyes couldn't adapt a little, and he couldn't see the figure and face of the person who came clearly. But then, a voice like a heavenly voice sounded: "Brother Shen, it seems that you are doing well here, are you asleep, hahaha!" ”
Shen Wei suddenly felt that his eyes seemed to be a little moist, and his throat was still a little choked, he quickly covered his eyes again, and said in a strange tone: "I can't sleep, I'm a little insomnia, I'm counting sheep!" ”
"Damn, I'm glad I didn't cry, otherwise I would have been embarrassed and thrown to my grandmother's house! But then again, why do I suddenly have a strange sense of dependence on Zhang Le! Shen Wei's heart faintly felt a little bad.
