Chapter 440: Swamp Forest (Twenty-Three)
Zhu Beichen clearly saw that Strassmann was trembling slightly, muttering in his mouth, and his voice was like a mosquito.
Zhu Beichen wanted to help this old man but was stopped by Qijian, it was definitely unwise to touch him at this time, so he had no choice but to get as close as possible and asked, "Say it, I'll listen." But in his heart, he thought that it was time for everyone, so he would try to agree to whatever he asked.
Gulps of blood poured out of Strathman's mouth, carrying a heavy smell of blood and a strange and unpleasant smell of decay, and the wriggling Gu worms and eggs waiting to hatch could be clearly seen in the blood sprayed in the mud.
The saddest thing about people is that when they are dying, no one cries for themselves, I don't know what Strathman's inner world is thinking, whether he feels desolate.
A terrible cry came from Strathman's mouth, unable to describe his thoughts when he lost all his speech and hearing, his fingers shaking and scratching the characters on the ground.
July's face changed suddenly, and the nightmare of the night before hovered in his mind, and now it will be completely transformed into reality: "How many points?" ”
Han Qingxin looked at his phone and affirmed: "It's past 1 o'clock in the morning, and it's already the next day." She understood what July meant when she asked the time, and that the date of Strathman's death was predestined and could not be changed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Strathman's hand that was scratching the mud stopped moving, drooped stiffly, and let out his last breath, rolled his eyes and left.
Before Strathman's last words could be finished in the mud, several crooked Chinese characters were written: "I see..."
It seems that when he was dying, he should have understood something and wanted to inform Zhu Beichen about them, but he didn't have time to say it before he swallowed his last breath.
The fat man stood behind them and asked in a condensed voice, "Dead?" ”
He didn't need to sniff to confirm his death, and Nanama was stunned, "Well, I'm out of breath." ”
Han Qingxin's attention shifted from Strathman's corpse to the words left in the mud, "What are the last two words, what does 'so it see' mean, and what was it originally?" "Xindao, this old man died by such a coincidence, he was reluctant to live for a second, leaving a huge mystery sooner or later, did he understand something before he died?
Zhu Beichen said: "It seems that if you want to know the truth, you have to confront Strathman, and you can ask him clearly next time you meet him." ”
The words in the mud are in Chinese, and what he wanted to say to everyone before he died may be a warning reminder, he is very smart and knows that Chinese characters are concise and concise, and Nanama analyzed: "The first word that was not finished was obviously missing a radical, and his mind was not clear so he didn't notice it, and he didn't finish writing the last word when he wrote it." ”
July said: "Judging from the glyph, there are not many radicals that can be matched with this character, so it should be easy to guess." ”
Han Qingxin tried: "Pick the word? "Once you guess one of the words, the rest is just a word, but how much can two words cover?
A small grave rises out of the mud, a grave bag without a tombstone, and an astonishing biologist sleeps in the hot and humid mire. The sins of his life will be buried under the loess mound with his long sleep.
"I don't know if we'll ever get a chance to go back here again and see Strathman's grave." For Zhu Beichen, the hatred disappeared with his death, and the companions who had experienced the exploration of the Sun Tomb together were buried here, and some only missed and remembered.
"There is also Ning Yun's grave, and I don't know if I can meet it again in the future." The direction of the swamp forest is extremely difficult to discern, and the person who was buried a few hours ago may not be able to find it again after a while, and the background of the swamp forest is confusing everywhere, July patted the mud on his body and got up.
After burying Strathman, it was already about 5 a.m. when everyone packed up their packages and prepared to leave. Strathman's grave bag was still clearly visible behind him, and Han Qingxin slowed down and grinned and reminded, "Attention, it seems that we are in trouble, and our old friend is back." ”
Walking in the swamp mud muttered the sound of footsteps, and if it was a group of well-trained special forces walking in it, it would even more so that Han Qingxin could spot other people walking in the swamp in time, and judging the direction according to the sound, it was towards the place where they were.
July looked at the depths of the swamp in a low voice and said, "It's Wu Min and them?" ”
There are not many people left in that group, there were 4 people in Wu Min's team before, and they saw the corpses of the soldiers along the way, and picked up Strassmann halfway, it is estimated that now Wu Min's side is just her and Jiang Erye.
In the gloomy swamp in front of them, a vague black shadow gradually approached them, and a male voice shouted slowly: "My old friends, I didn't expect you to be dead, and I am glad to see you." ”
The vicissitudes of life and hoarse male voice are basically determined to be Jiang Erye, the howling wind in the forest is blowing, the temperature in the early morning is slightly cold, Jiang Erye is like walking from the burial place full of corpses, but there is no living creature in the forest.
Hearing this, Han Qingxin couldn't help frowning, from July's narrative, there should be two of them now, so where is the rest of the woman? The optimal number of special forces teamwork is two people, and if they cooperate tacitly, they can easily solve opponents who are several times their own. At this time, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and reminded in a low voice that only the people around her could hear: "Note that he is only one person, that woman must be nearby, to avoid her sneaking up on us, we must pay attention to the movements around us." ”
Han Qingxin's reminder was especially in his ears, and the fat man felt that there was an extraordinary cold wind blowing on his side and his calves were cold, and there was faint movement in the mud on the side, and a light flashed across his eyes. reacted immediately, but it was still a little late, and the bullets that tore through the air at high speed shot at his calves. At this time, moving in all directions, it seemed that he could dodge the bullet, and the fat man jumped up wittily and slashed, and the skin on the soles of his feet was grazed by the bullet. Before he could land, the sneak attacker seemed to have calculated the fat man's dodge trajectory, and immediately followed the bullet and threw a military sharp knife, which pierced the fat man's calf when he was just halfway down.
"Ahh The thief lady is really a powerful calculation. "There is no relay point in mid-air, and you can't dodge if you want to, and the fat man who was stabbed fell to the ground due to injury.
Only then did the rest of the group see a human head emerging from the mud and the muzzle of a gun exposed to the air, and the rest of the body was buried in the mud.
"Watch out for the quagmire."
"It hurts Lao Tzu to death, this plays sneak attack."
"Spread out, looking for shelter."
The chaotic shouts seemed to explode in the woods, and each of them hid their bodies in the nearest bunker. What they were facing was the Jiang family's best special forces, but this way of hiding and hiding didn't even Han Qingxin find out in time, and it was not too difficult for Wu Min to solve them.
In the open space, only the fat man was still wailing, and he couldn't run at this time, such a big target could be shot with his eyes closed.
Han Qingxin hid in the crack of the two trees, calmly looked at Jiang Erye who walked out of the forest in front of him, poked out the muzzle of the gun slightly to aim, and was ready to pull the trigger at any time.
After a slight hesitation for a second, a sharp object with a chill all over its body came through the gap between the two trees. The whistling sound swept along the top of Han Qingxin's head, the speed was beyond her expectations, and as soon as she hit her head, a broken strand of hair fell in the wind, which immediately startled her.
Jiang Erye stood ten meters away from Han Qingxin's hideout and confidently raised a small box in his hand, there were several pinhole-like black holes at the front of the box, and the pinholes contained long needles that extracted poison.
It's dangerous, and as soon as I catch a glimpse of him, I've already retracted the box into the cuffs. This kind of thing is no worse than the destructive power brought by firearms, on the contrary, the internal mechanism of the crossbow can be set to activate dozens of extremely thin long needles at a time, which is often difficult to guard.
Almost at the moment of the probe, a strong sense of crisis came to him, and Wu Min threw his gun in the swamp, followed by a series of bullets that hit the two trees densely.
is really a tricky woman, not inferior to herself in terms of skill and marksmanship, Han Qingxin shrank back, looking for an opportunity. The other party can force them all to this with just two people, which makes Han Qingxin feel even more aggrieved.
Jiang Erye shook his hand and smiled: "How is it, isn't it very aggrieved." Girl, you'd better always hide behind there and don't come out, as long as you show your head out, it will bloom immediately. ”
The tone was arrogant and domineering, and his gaze was arrogant ahead of him, and he didn't take this group of people into account at all. But the box in his hand seemed to have eyes, and the resentful and stubborn Zhu Beichen on the other side slightly skimmed his feet out, and a few needles were immediately shot towards the land a centimeter away, which frightened Zhu Beichen and hurriedly shrank his legs.
Now the only one outside the control of the two of them is only seven, the weird and fluttering figure makes them lose their target in a few flashes, smooth and natural movements, moving left and right A monkey in the woods, three or two clicks do not know where to flash.
July's perspective just happened to see Zhu Beichen's frightened eyes, she made a reassuring gesture to tell Zhu Beichen to stay in place, Wu Min They actually had a chance to kill Zhu Beichen and Han Qingxin, but they didn't do it, they were just intimidating, what were they thinking?
At this time, Jiang Erye's hearty and mocking laughter came from behind him, "Do you think it's okay to hide?" If we want to do something with you, why do we have to talk so much nonsense. Give you the opportunity to learn to cherish it. ”
Cherish, what does this mean? The fat man was lying in the mud, knowing that the woman was hiding in the quagmire under his feet, and the danger was always around, so he could only stare at the muddy ground in front of him: "Why do you want to cooperate with us?" ”
Frightened, a head poked out of the mud on the side of her body, Wu Min jumped up from the mud, and her posture in the mud was as flexible as a loach, and she didn't know how she did it. Wu Min suddenly pressed the fat man who was just about to get up to the ground, was pulled by his head and stuck into the mud, and ate the wet mud with a nose and a mouth.
