The checkpoint is divided into two small passages, both separated by barbed wire, which is a hundred times stricter than the airport security check. The soldiers above were armed with fixed large-caliber machine guns and pointed them down, apparently preferring to kill a thousand people by mistake rather than let one go. The inspection also goes through several steps, starting with checking documents, followed by a body search, followed by a simple question, and finally a trip to the back of the wall to undress for a final search and scan, then a change of clothes before entering the construction site.

According to Qinghua, the most dangerous thing is to ask about that level, as long as you don't bring contraband, it's best not to bring anything, so that as long as you ask to pass the level, there is basically nothing. Don't look around and look flustered when you pass by, don't show curiosity, it's best to look ahead, at the back of the neck of the person in front of you, and don't make any movement when the soldier doesn't ask you to turn your head, especially not to look at the weapon in their hand, which will be taken as a red flag.

Tang Shuxing walked to the front of Qinghua, the two pretended not to know each other, Tang Shuxing did what Qinghua said, there was no problem with document inspection and body search, and finally came to the time to ask questions. The soldier just glanced at Tang Shuxing, waved his hand and let him in, Tang Shuxing subconsciously raised his feet and walked forward, at this time the soldier suddenly shouted: "Stop!" What is your name, where do you live, and who are in your family? ”

Tang Shuxing pretended to be frightened, because under this kind of roar, it was abnormal for him not to be intimidated, and then he lowered his head and said the information he had memorized before, the soldier nodded, and let Tang Shuxing move forward, at this time the soldier suddenly asked again: "Are you a new immigrant?" I don't have a listening accent like someone in this part of New York. ”

Tang Shuxing shook his head: "Sir, I am a fifth-generation Chinese-American. ”

The soldier saw that his trick was useless, so he had to let Tang Shu torture him. Qinghua also passed the test smoothly, but the person behind Qinghua was not so lucky, when asking, he subconsciously glanced back at the soldier, and was smashed in the face by the soldier's rifle butt. The moment he fell to the ground, he was about to grab something to stabilize his body, and who knew that he had caught the soldier's leg - where a small pistol was hidden.

"Bah-" The gun went off, and the man was shot in the head and fell to the ground dead, and the soldier who fired the shot was still cursing there.

Except for the military. No one dared to cast a glance at the poor fellow.

"Hey, the first two stop! That's you! Turn around! Fast! The soldier stopped Tang Shuxing and Qinghua, both of them were shocked, worried about whether there was a flaw?

The soldier waited for them to turn around, looked at them, and then pointed to the corpse and said, "Drag him to the front." The people over there will tell you what to do! Hurry up! There are still many people waiting in the back! ”

Qinghua and Tang Shuxing immediately grabbed their arms and lifted their feet, and carried the corpse, whose head was still gurgling and bleeding, behind the high wall in the direction of the construction site.

When Tang Shuxing bypassed the high wall, he turned his head and saw the kind of sinkholes of different sizes that appeared up and down the hillside in the distance, the smallest one was the size of an ordinary wellhead, a slightly larger one could fall into a truck, and the largest one could at least fall into a warship.

"Don't look at it!" Qinghua reminded Tang Shuxing. Tang Shuxing immediately walked with him to carry the body to one of the officer-like figures, and then waited there with his head down.

"Let's go change our clothes first." The officer said without looking back, then pointed to the corpse and said, "Then throw the corpse into the biggest hole in front of you, and the people there will teach you how to do it." ”

Tang Shuxing and Qinghua immediately went to change their clothes, and after stripping naked, they searched their bodies again, and even checked the inside of their buttocks, and there was almost no enema, and then quickly carried the corpse and walked along a road paved with large steel plates towards the nearest big sinkhole.

Tang Shuxing stepped on the steel plate underground. After all, the larger the area, the lower the pressure, and if people keep walking back and forth on the dirt floor, it may enlarge the sinkholes that have appeared.

Come to the sinkhole. A sergeant standing there was inspecting the edge of the sinkhole that the workers had fixed, first reaching out and touching it, then smashing it with the butt of his gun, and then taking out a hammer and smashing it downward, smashing it directly off a piece of the edge made of reinforced concrete.

The sergeant shook his head: "No, it has to be reinforced!" Hurry up! ”

Several of the workers who had been in charge of the area immediately rushed to get back to work, when the sergeant pulled out his pistol and fired a shot directly at the back of the head at one of them, followed by a kick that knocked him down. The others were just shocked, and immediately buried themselves in their work as if nothing had happened.

Tang Shuxing found from the angle he was standing that after the gunshot, several people closed their eyes, their lips and hands were trembling, it seemed that such a thing would happen every second, and he didn't know how Shang Du controlled and changed these ordinary soldiers, turning them into the current brutal appearance, even a thousand times worse than the fascist soldiers during World War II.

The sergeant squatted there, looking at the bottomless pit, listening attentively, there was no sound at all when the corpse fell, he got up and shook his head, and then looked at Tang Shuxing and Qinghua, took out a miniature electronic watch-like thing from the armory box next to him, buckled it on the wrist of the corpse, and after activating it, motioned for them to throw it down.

After Tang Shuxing and Qinghua threw the corpse down, the sergeant immediately looked at the small computer in his hand, which displayed various data such as the speed of the corpse falling and the depth distance, and after a long time, the data stopped, Tang Shuxing pretended to turn around, glanced at it, and found that the above display was 3km, that is to say, the corpse fell to the bottom, from this position to the bottom of 3000 meters!

Tang Shuxing gasped, and his face changed slightly. The sergeant seemed to be aware of this, and inquired again about Tang Shuxing's family, checked his documents again, and then motioned for the two of them to go to the other side, where they would get tools and follow the workers to work.

The two took the tools, and transported the cement in front of the cement truck next to them, and when they received the cement, Tang Shuxing saw that there was no one around, and said in a low voice: "Three thousand meters? That can't be wrong, right? ”

Qinghua whispered: "I don't know, I shouldn't." ”

"In terms of the radius of the earth, I think it should be more than 6,000 meters, but it also depends on the altitude where we are now, and the altitude of New York is not high. This hole is three thousand meters long, that is, half of it is close to the core of the earth, what a hell of a horror, how can this kind of thing happen? Tang Shuxing stared at the cement that was slowly getting more in the car.

"Who knows." Qinghua longed for the sun to set right now, and he wanted to leave. Here you face being shot at any time.

"It's definitely like a furnace down there, but why can't I feel the slightest temperature, but instead I can feel a cool breeze blowing in at the entrance of the cave?" Tang Shuxing was very puzzled.

"Big brother, don't talk about it, let's work and gather intelligence." Qinghua said in a low voice. "Don't do anything stupid, or we'll all die."

"I know." Tang Shuxing looked around, "Where are the members of the gang?" ”

Qinghua shook her head: "It should be far away from the construction site, farther away, but I saw a person with a dragon tattoo earlier, although it was only a claw." But I could see that it was a green dragon's claw, and only the Huaqing Gang had such a tattoo. ”

"Where?" Tang Shuxing immediately asked.

"Behind you on the right, to the south, there are five people there using a stone crusher, and there is a person with a "chiluo" upper body, and it is him." When Qinghua spoke, she didn't dare to raise her head. Then he pushed his own cart and left.

Tang Shuxing took a look, but because the cement of the trolley was also full, he quickly pushed the trolley to the edge of the deep pit, dumped the cement and returned to the cement truck, so he deliberately changed the angle and carefully observed the person.

The guy had long hair and a very strong body, but he was not tall, less than 1.75 meters, and the other four people around him took good care of him, and even the foreman took the initiative to bring him a cigarette and light it. He doesn't need to do the heavy work either. Tang Shuxing waited for a long time, and finally waited for the man to turn around, only to see that the guy had a relatively handsome face, a mustache, and a very vigilant look. But he didn't see any tattoos.

Tang Shuxing immediately asked Qinghua: "What about the tattoo you are talking about?" ”

"This kind of person is not an ordinary gang member." Qinghua explained, "Now the gang members are different from before, they don't get tattoos in obvious positions, young and high-status people, most of them are tattooed on the buttocks, so it is not easy to be detected, and when you go to the beach, it is not easy to be seen in pants, and when he leans over, you pay attention." ”

Tang Shuxing's cart was full again, but he still turned around three times, and finally found that the guy leaned over when he was dumping cement, and the back of his buttocks was close to the lower part of his waist, revealing a dragon claw, and the man was also very vigilant and immediately got up, looked around and lifted his pants again, deliberately pulling them high to cover them.

"Do you know him?" Tang Shuxing asked Qinghua again.

Qinghua shook her head: "I can't see the front, I don't know, although I haven't seen some people, but I also know some physiognomy characteristics, there are not many young people in their twenties who have status in the Huaqing Gang now, at most five people, I know them all, but I haven't seen this person, I don't know if he has grown his hair long, I have to find a way to see his front." ”

"Simple." Tang Shuxing said in a low voice, "Do you see the foreman next to that buddy?" You used to ask for smoke and fire, and by the way, take a look. ”

"Big brother! Are you going to kill me? Qinghua cried with a sad face, "Even if the soldiers don't kill me, this group of people will kill me, I used to be mortal enemies with them, and many people know me and want to kill me." ”

Tang Shuxing approached and comforted: "It's okay, with me, don't worry, after you figure it out, even if I owe you a personal favor." ”

Qinghua was helpless, knowing that if he didn't go, Tang Shuxing would have to find a way to kill him, so he had to run to the soldiers to report, and after getting permission, he walked towards those people, and then was beaten as expected, and they didn't stop until the soldiers fired their guns.

Qinghua came back with a swollen nose and blue face, wiped his nosebleed, and said while working: "It's Wei Lifeng!" The young son of the Wei Sect under the command of the Huaqing Gang, the actual person in charge of the Wei Sect in the future, I know him, I have done business with him before, and he has bought my gun. ”

Tang Shuxing nodded, and asked again: "What is the relationship between him and the old man of Weimen?" ”

"It's said that it's the eldest son, and the old man of Weimen is his own grandfather!" Qinghua wiped her nosebleed, and now her face was covered with blood, which was very scary.

"Looks like this kid has to call me uncle." Tang Shuxing smiled, looked at Wei Lifeng, and thought about how to approach him. (To be continued.)
