Chapter 4: The Hunt for Ruoyu: XVII. Where is Ruoyu?

XVII. Where is the rain?

I asked the people who cleaned up the battlefield to be careful. Oriental Reading Network: First, check whether there is rain in the corpse. The second is to stop people from cheating on death and looking for an opportunity to escape. The third is to gather all the belongings of the corpse. Unified review by the temple to find useful information.

These people who cleaned the battlefield were very serious, first stabbing each corpse, then looking at the appearance of the corpse, and finally taking the items from the corpse.

I watched as these men stabbed the corpses one by one, and shook my head with a wry smile. I know it's a habit for the Bogda, it was like that a thousand years ago.

I turned my head to look at Aya and asked her to ask first to see if there was any news of Ruoyu.

After Aya left, a man from the wolf clan was sent by the leader. It is said that the dozen or so mercenaries who fled along the river into the cave into which the river had entered, after being blocked by the river. Because the cave is too dark, there are many rocks inside, which is conducive to concealment, and if you attack it from the outside, you will definitely suffer a big loss. So they stopped the pursuit and just stayed outside the cave.

I know that the cave, when I came last year, I went in with a few people from Lao Pao. Knowing that not far after the river entered the cave, there was a huge drop, and after the river flowed into the belly of the mountain, it disappeared and eventually became an underground river. The cave into which the river enters, and neither the cave nor the river have another exit. Previously, Uncle Guge's house used to have a tunnel with one of its exits in this cave.

I gasped at the thought of this. When the wolf clan evacuated the village, I had instructed the leader of the wolf clan to block the exit of the tunnel here. I wonder if the leader of the wolf clan sent someone to do this when he hurriedly left? If this exit has been sealed, there will be no way out for the mercenaries who have fled into the cave. These mercenaries either surrendered or were trapped inside. If these mercenaries resist stubbornly, the tribesmen do not need to attack, but only defend the entrance to the cave. It is also a matter of time before these mercenaries are eliminated or captured alive. If the wolves forgot to seal this exit when they evacuated, it is very likely that the mercenaries have already passed through this tunnel and exited through another exit.

According to the people sent by the wolf clan, the mercenaries did not seem to be in a hurry, and entered the cave in a panic. It's more like those mercenaries already knew about the existence of that cave, and they also knew that there was a tunnel entrance and exit in this cave, which even most of the wolf people didn't know. The mercenaries fled with a clear purpose, and they were heading for the cave. From this tunnel, they hope to reach the place that the attackers have overlooked, and the exit that leads to the village, and find a way to escape. If so, these mercenaries could enter the forest behind the village and hide in another mountain range, posing a great threat to the entire village. I know that these mercenaries who survived the catastrophe are extremely capable of surviving in the wild, but also extremely cruel and dangerous. In order to live, they will do whatever it takes.

I summoned Xiao Zhu, the old man, Faceless and Longchuan and asked Xiao Zhu to continue to stay in the position on the hillside with the people who had been assigned to him before. Don't let your watch on the other side of the valley to prevent mercenary reinforcements from entering the mountain at any time. It also prevents mercenaries who have leaks in battle from slipping out. I took the old man and Ryuchuan to the cave.

We followed the hillside to the creek and then descended all the way to the end of the river. The creek flows into a huge cave after a huge loop. We saw the leader of the wolf clan outside the cave. He led the wolf clan and the other two tribesmen to enclose the mouth of the cave in a circle. Looking at this posture, they were discussing how to attack.

I called the leader of the wolf clan aside and asked him if he had sealed the entrance and exit of the tunnel in the cave before evacuating.

The leader of the wolf clan said, "Don't worry! The inside is sealed to death, and now it can't be blown up with explosives on the outside. Fortunately, this tunnel entrance was sealed at the beginning, otherwise these bastards would have entered the tunnel, and it would have been really troublesome. At the beginning, I wondered, how could outsiders know that there was such an authenticity? Is it really necessary to seal this place? Fortunately, although I was puzzled, I did not give up on the execution. It's just that I'm glad now, but I still don't understand. This tunnel is something that even my son doesn't know. ”

I said, "We had an accident when we came last year, and it was Uncle Guge who let us escape through this tunnel. At that time, the rain was there. So she also knew that there was such a tunnel. She must have told the mercenaries everything about the place. I was worried that this tunnel would be used by those mercenaries, so I asked you to seal these two entrances and exits. ”

The leader of the wolf clan suddenly came to his senses and said, "I see! ”

I told the leader of the wolf clan, "Now that the tunnel is blocked, there's no need to attack the cave." There was no need to increase the casualties of the tribesmen. Let's think of something else. ”

Back at the edge of the cave, I first asked Long Chuan to shout into the cave. I asked Long Chuan to report to his home first, and then told the mercenaries in the cave that if they wanted to survive, they would come out and surrender. We give them an hour, and if they don't come out and surrender within an hour, then none of them want to live.

Long Chuan shouted into the cave several times, but there was no sound in the cave except for the echo of the buzzing and buzzing. Long Chuan said, "Could these people be no longer in it?" Are there other exits in there? ”

I said, "Don't worry! It's a dead end. ”

To be cautious, I asked the leader of the wolf clan to send someone to check in the tunnel, just in case.

At this time, Aya also rushed to the cave. She had compiled information after searching behind, attacking ahead, and clearing all the battlefields. No one had ever seen Ruoyu, and no one had found Ruoyu's body. Judging from the information that Aya returned, Ruoyu was also among the mercenaries who fled into the cave. No wonder these people fled straight down the river into the cave, it turned out that Ruoyu was leading the way for these people.

An hour passed quickly, and there was still no sound in the cave. The leader of the wolf clan said, "Since these people don't want to live, let's fulfill them!" ”

I saw that the leader of the wolf clan couldn't hold back his desire to attack, and said, "We don't need to die anymore. We just need to guard it out there and trap these bastards. ”

I asked the old man to take Longchuan to set up a minefield at the entrance of the cave, so that the people inside could not get out of the cave.
