Chapter 44: The Centipede Mask (Part II)
While Tang Qianlin was in a stalemate with the putrid centipede, Ni Xiaowan tried her best to push the coffin, but because the coffin was too heavy, she couldn't push it at all.
Just when Ni Xiaowan was at a loss, Li Yunfan, Yi Mochen and Qiao Tong appeared from the darkness and pushed hard with Ni Xiaowan.
Takahashi Jiro, who had already run to the entrance, saw that the others were going to help, and he was about to turn back, but he was grabbed by the arm by Qian Sinian.
Takahashi Jiro said, "Go and help!" ”
Qian Sinian glanced into the distance and said in a low voice: "Chief Takahashi, to tell you the truth, if I am the only one left alive this time, my mission will be completed." ”
"What?" Jiro Takahashi shook off Qian Sinian's hand, "What the hell are you here for?" ”
Qian Sinian said: "I'll give you a choice now, kill them and leave with me." ”
Qian Sinian said as he took out a grenade and stuffed it into Takahashi's hand.
Jiro Takahashi shook his head: "I refuse, I want to go, you can go alone." ”
Takahashi Jiro took the grenade and turned around and ran in the direction of Tang Qianlin, Qian Sinian looked at his back, scolded in a low voice, and had to follow.
After Ni Xiaowan, Qiao Tong, Li Yunfan and Yi Mochen pushed the coffin open, they helped the injured Qingquan out.
Li Yunfan picked up Qingquan and said, "Hurry up and help!" ”
Everyone immediately ran in the direction of Tang Qianlin and the putrid centipede, and at this time, Takahashi Jiro appeared from the darkness and shouted at Tang Qianlin at the same time: "Grenade!" Get out of the way! ”
Tang Qianlin was startled, raised his foot and kicked at the head of the rotten centipede, and after pulling out the lower phoenix spear with his strength, he rushed to the side.
Takahashi pulled out the grenade fuse, knocked it on the lid of the coffin next to him, and threw it at the putrid centipede.
The grenade landed under the putrid centipede for a few seconds and exploded, and the fire was accompanied by the strange "hee-hee" sound of the putrid centipede, and the fragments also flew out with the shockwave of the explosion.
The putrid centipede struggled to crawl on the ground for a few meters before not moving.
Qiao Tong got up, looked at the putrid centipede, and complained, "If there is a grenade, I should have taken it out." ”
Jiro Takahashi subconsciously said, "It's not my grenade." ”
After Takahashi Jiro finished speaking, everyone turned their heads to look at Qian Sinian who appeared behind Takahashi Jiro.
Qian Sinian didn't know how to explain it, because before he came, everyone was not equipped with other weapons except pistols, let alone a grenade, which he obviously brought in privately.
Tang Qianlin looked at Qingquan, who was sitting on the side panting: "Look how he is." ”
As he spoke, Tang Qianlin walked to the corpse of the putrid centipede with the Xia Feng spear in his hand to check it.
The skull and joints of the putrefactive centipede had been blasted open, and there was green slime splattering around it, and the slime was still bubbling, corroding everything it touched.
"Stand back, the liquid in this thing is very corrosive." Tang Qianlin raised his feet and stepped over, standing on the coffin lid next to him, to observe the corpse of the putrid centipede up close.
The head of the putrid centipede hung low, and only half of it hung on the body of the next section, and three human heads hung on the left and right sides of the body, male and female.
Tang Qianlin used the lower phoenix gun to open one of the heads, and found that the human head was sewn on the body of the putrid centipede in a special way.
The more Ni Xiaowan looked at it, the more disgusted she felt: "What does this mean?" ”
"If Evil Sa and Fractured Thousand Corpses are really refining the Seven Star Corpses here, then it should be seven heads." Tang Qianlin counted left and right, "Look, there's one less." ”
Ni Xiaowan searched around the corpse of the putrefactive centipede, but found nothing.
"On my back." Yi Mochen stepped forward and pointed to the back of the putrid centipede, which was the middle of the three heads on the left and right, "Look there, does it look like a human face?" ”
Tang Qianlin carefully shone it with a flashlight, and found that there was really a human face on the crust of the centipede's back, with clear facial features, and the whole face seemed to be translucent.
Tang Qianlin knocked it with his hand, touched the surrounding edges of the face, and found that the hardness was different.
Tang Qianlin took off the head of the lower phoenix spear, held the phoenix tail ruler straight in his hand, and began to cut from the edge, and soon he cut off the entire human face from the back of the rotten centipede.
After cutting it off, Tang Qianlin found that there was a human head embedded in the centipede's back, and the cut off human face was just a mask worn by that human head.
Qiao Tong and Qian Sinian stepped forward almost at the same time, reaching out to get the mask.
Tang Qianlin raised his hand, took the mask aside, and looked at the two of them.
Qian Sinian smiled and withdrew his hand, while Takahashi Jiro watched his movements.
Ni Xiaowan stepped forward and looked at the black mask: "What is this?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "I don't know, but it won't be on this centipede's body for no reason." ”
"It's a sacrificial ground." Jingus's voice came from the darkness, and everyone was startled to see Jinguth sitting on a coffin not far away, "What? Think I'm dead? ”
Qian Sinian stepped forward and asked sharply, "Hey, where have you been?" ”
Jin Gusi looked at Qian Sinian and said, "Section Chief Qian, the transaction between us starts from this moment and ends. ”
"Deal?" Takahashi Jiro looked at Jinguss and then at Qian Sinian, "Do you know him?" ”
Qian Sinian was silent, just looked at Jinguth with resentment.
Jinguth stood up and said: "After I arrived in Manchuria, Section Chief Qian came to me and made a deal with me, this deal is very simple, that is, after coming here, help him and kill you all." ”
How about it, Jingusi smiled: "Section Chief Qian, I'm not mistaken, right?" That's what you said at the time. ”
Qian Sinian suddenly pulled out his gun and pointed it at everyone, and began to retreat step by step: "Since all of them have been exposed, then I have nothing to say." ”
When Qiao Tong stretched out his hand to pull out the firecracker, Qian Sinian turned the muzzle of the gun to him: "Don't act rashly, hand over all your weapons and throw them in this coffin, hurry up." ”
No one handed over their weapons, and everyone stared at Qian Sinian, looking for an opportunity to fight back.
Qian Sinian sighed, and pulled the trigger directly at Qingquan next to him with a gun, Qingquan was shot in one leg, covering the wound and screaming in pain.
Qian Sinian said: "I don't want to say it a second time, throw the gun in." ”
As he spoke, Qian Sinian aimed at Qingquan's head, and Tang Qianlin took the lead in throwing his Xiafeng spear into it, and then the others had to throw their weapons into the coffin.
After throwing all the weapons in, Qian Sinian took off his backpack and threw it in front of Li Yunfan: "I have medicine and morphine here, which can save Qingquan." ”
Li Yunfan frowned and looked at Qian Sinian: "What do you want to do?" ”
"I have no grievances with you, I just act as ordered, if you get out alive, I will be miserable." Qian Sinian said expressionlessly, "But maybe there is a turnaround, Lao Li, I told you, there are some things, we can't decide to be lackeys, take out the medicine in the backpack, and then put the mask in it." ”
Li Yunfan raised his eyes and looked at Tang Qianlin, Tang Qianlin looked at the painful Qingquan, and had to say: "Do as he says, save Qingquan first." ”
Li Yunfan took out the first-aid items from his backpack and helped Qingquan stop the bleeding and bandage.
The wound on Kyungjeon's leg was bleeding profusely, and the blood flowed down his thigh, zigzagging down the ground into the small hole next to him.
"It hurts." Qingquan gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, give me a shot." ”
Qian Sinian looked at the needle box next to him and said, "There is morphine in it, inject him, it can relieve his pain." ”
After Li Yunfan put the mask in his backpack, he took out the needle and injection to inject Qingquan.
Qian Sinian stepped forward with a gun, held the backpack in his hand, and showed a weird smile: "Now, I don't need to do it, you all have to die." ”
As he spoke, Qian Sinian took out a grenade and held it in his hand, and when he bit off the fuse, he knocked it on the coffin board, but threw it directly into the coffin where the weapon was placed.
"Get out of the way!" Tang Qianlin shouted, knocking down Ni Xiaowan beside him, and the rest of the people also dodged.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qian Sinian turned around and ran, and then the grenade exploded in the coffin, and after the smoke cleared, Tang Qianlin got up, and there was no trace of Qian Sinian.
Qiao Tong walked to the coffin, looked at the shattered weapons inside, and scolded fiercely.
"It was a scam from the beginning." Jiro Takahashi sat down with a wry smile, "We were betrayed. ”
Li Yunfan looked at Takahashi Jiro and said, "You were betrayed, not us." ”
Takahashi Jiro raised his eyes and looked at Li Yunfan and said, "What do you mean?" ”
Li Yunfan explained: "Qian Sinian and Park Byung-jung are spies sent by the Japanese navy. ”
Jiro Takahashi was taken aback: "Navy? Could it be someone from the Naval Command Department? ”
"Maybe, I don't know the details, these are all admitted to me by Qian Sinian himself." Li Yunfan shook his head a little incomprehensibly, "What I don't understand is why did he admit it to me in person?" There's no reason for that. ”
Jiro Takahashi sat there and said: "The navy and we have always had contradictions, mainly because the strategic vision is different, the navy wants to go south, and we want to go north, and at the same time we have resources in our hands that the navy does not have, but I never expected them to come and destroy, this is simply a shame for the empire." ”
Li Yunfan said: "There is also the most important point, that is, General Miyake does not seem to know the identities of Qian Sinian and Park Bingzheng, and it is not difficult to judge from this point that General Miyake must have a spy from the navy around him." ”
When Li Yunfan analyzed this, a name naturally appeared in his mind - Honjo Xinyi.
At this time, Tang Qianlin took out the Xia Feng spear, which was not damaged in the slightest, from the coffin, and looked in the direction where Qian Sinian left: "Strange, why does he think that we are dead?" ”
Li Yunfan said: "I also think it's strange that his original mission was to kill us all and sabotage this operation, but he told me his true identity halfway, and he did this because he had full confidence that we would all die here." ”
Qiao Tong said indignantly: "This kid may have explosives on his body, and if he blows up the exit, we will be trapped here." ”
Yi Mochen hurriedly said: "We can still stop him if we catch up now." ”
"No, he certainly doesn't have explosives." Li Yunfan shook his head and said, "It's okay for him to hide two grenades, but it's too unrealistic to hide explosives, and no one will carry explosives with him. ”
Ni Xiaowan wondered: "What is the reason for that?" ”
When everyone was discussing this issue, Qingquan in the corner suddenly grabbed his throat and said, "I'm so uncomfortable, I feel like I can't breathe......"
