This so-called baby is actually a small oxygen cylinder, there are four of them.

Jiang Shaoyan took advantage of the time to chat with the others, "If you use it normally, one person can use it to breathe for forty minutes, and there are seven of us, and the average two people use an oxygen cylinder, which is only twenty minutes." ”

I'm also entangled, in other words, we take it down to the Dead Man's Ditch, and in the event of an accident, we only have twenty minutes to escape.

The four SWAT officers brought the oxygen cylinders, and we gathered together to continue discussing.

Jiang Shaoyan asked everyone to express their position, and the next step was to retreat. I found out that the seven of us were divided into two factions, and I and the two SWAT officers both had one point of view, and we were so unprepared. And the four of them agreed, and the iron donkey even took out a look that he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and said, "What are you afraid of?" ”

The seven of us must definitely advance and retreat together, and at this time, we can't say that we will divide our troops along the way, and each will do our own thing.

In the end, there was only the way to obey the majority with the minority, and I had to face a reality head-on, and go down to the dead man's ditch.

Jiang Shaoyan selected four people, including himself and the iron donkey, all of whom were strong and responsible for carrying oxygen cylinders, and in addition, for the sake of safety, we also took out ropes and squeezed them around our waists.

In this way, if someone slips, the rest of us can use our strength to "help" him.

The seven of us were parallel, and after Jiang Shaoyan encouraged a few words, we walked down together. To be honest, when I first stepped into the downhill terrain, I thought it was even more difficult than I had imagined to walk on such a steep terrain.

The sand was very loose, and I was a little bald at the first time, but fortunately there was an iron donkey next to me, and he pulled the rope with his hand, so that a force passed to my waist and stabilized me.

I nodded my head in thanks, and the iron donkey waved his hand, which meant that I should stop talking about it and focus more on my feet.

We walked almost one foot deep and one foot shallow, and during this period, Jiang Shaoyan also asked everyone to smoke one after another, such as Zhang San who smoked first, and immediately changed to Li Si when he finished smoking.

It's not that we're all smokers, addicted to cigarettes or anything, we want to know the amount of oxygen around us by the burning level of cigarette butts.

I took seven rounds in total, which means that I smoked seven cigarettes intermittently. By this time we had gone a long way, and when we looked up, we couldn't see anything at the top of the slope. And the underfoot and the surrounding environment have also changed.

The slope here is not so steep, and the preliminary estimate is only forty or fifty degrees, which allows us to stand and relax a little.

As for the surrounding environment, the surface is still mainly covered by sand, but there are also some boulders half-buried in the sand.

These boulders are more than 100 catties in size, and their shape is similar to that of an oval. The iron donkey was in a hurry, and he was very close to a boulder, so he leaned over and pushed it.

In fact, it can be seen that he did not use much strength, and the boulder actually loosened, first slowly tilted, and then pulled out of the sand, and rolled down with a rumbling.

I was frightened by the sight and looked behind me vigilantly. I'm worried that the boulder behind me won't come loose naturally, so won't it run us over when it rolls like this?

But we can't do anything, otherwise we can push stones while walking, how can we have so much energy and physical strength?

Jiang Shaoyan thought of a compromise, and among the seven of us, it was his turn to smoke now.

He looked at the cigarette butt and emphatically said, "There is a slight shortage of oxygen here, so let's not be too reckless, just sit here and rest for a while." ”

We were a little tired, so we all nodded and sat down.

Although this case has been solved until now, I have a lot of things in my heart, but I didn't think much about it at this time. Instead, he chatted casually with the iron donkey, trying to decompress in this way.

We both wondered, what would be like down the slope? Could it be the location of the Sun Tomb? But we don't have that many clues at the moment, so we can't guess why.

I took advantage of the time to take a look at Jiang Shaoyan, he took a telescope and was looking at it from a distance. After a quarter of an hour, Jiang Shaoyan suddenly stood up vigilantly, didn't need a telescope, and turned his head to look behind him.

All six of us were stunned by his actions and looked along.

With the naked eye, we couldn't really see anything, but I could feel the ground shaking a little under my feet.

My first reaction was, there can't really be a rock loose and roll down, right? But again, it is impossible, the place where the boulder appeared is only near us, and the distance is full of sand.

There was a little guy in the SWAT, and he not only thought of going with me, but also raised the gun and asked what was going on?

Jiang Shaoyan made a steady gesture and replied, "Don't panic, observe and talk." ”

We waited for another half minute or so, and two dark figures appeared in the distance.

Jiang Shaoyan hurriedly raised the binoculars, there was originally a special police officer with a telescope, he also wanted to use the telescope to see, but was robbed by the iron donkey halfway.

I noticed that the donkey was really curious, and after a few glances, he scolded and said, "It's our jeep!" ”

The meaning is obvious, this black shadow is the jeep that is going downhill.

I was stunned for a while, because before going down to the dead man's ditch, our car was obviously parked, and the car keys were in our hands, how did they slide down bizarrely?

No one can figure it out. We continued to wait and see, and we all held up our flashlights and shone them at the jeep.

The jeep was neither fast nor slow, there was no driver in it, it was simply pulled down by gravity. And when it got closer, we found a new problem.

Every car has a grimace on the windshield, it's pale, it's a little shiny.

We have been in contact with this evil thing for a long time, and we are not too afraid, but the four special police officers are not good, and everyone's expressions have changed a little bit, and they are a little stunned.

The short SWAT officer couldn't stand it at first, and he aimed and shot.

I found that this kid was quite accurate in his marksmanship, and he hit him in the face with one shot. The grimace instantly revealed a small hole, and some red blood stains appeared on the small hole.

The short SWAT officer wowed, he was definitely scared, and took a step back. But it was downhill here, and it was thanks to him that he got his balance back in time, so that he was saved from rolling down.

Other SWAT officers were surrounded by gunfire and couldn't help but open fire one after another.

The windshields of the two jeeps were unreadable, and the two grimaces had become authentic blood gourds, but they quickly disappeared, leaving only stains of blood.

The downward trajectory of the two jeeps is also coming towards us, and we have to avoid them if we want not to get hurt.

I have to say that we have ropes tied around our waists, which will be connected to each other as a whole, which has advantages and disadvantages, but it is not very convenient to move.

Jiang Shaoyan made a gesture, which meant that we should move to the side in parallel. The six of us were very cooperative.

This would have been easy to accomplish without outside interference, but the evil gate came, and while we were walking, a jeep skidped.

The sand under its feet could not carry the weight of the jeep, and it fell with the jeep. The jeep was so far away from its previous route that it was rushing towards us in a positive direction.

The seven of us were in a dilemma for a while, some wanted to continue to dodge to the left, and some wanted to go to the right. With such a twist, we are messed up.

There wasn't much time left for us, and if we didn't hide any longer, the jeep rushed in with sand.

Jiang Shaoyan temporarily changed his decision, asking everyone to quickly untie the rope and escape.

Our rope is tied with live buckles, and it is easy to untie. The iron donkey took good care of me and told me to go with him.

The two of us were the first to flee to safety, followed by Jiang Shaoyan and three special police officers. The little man was unlucky, and he wasn't mentally strong enough.

The jeep rushed towards him, and at this time he was carried back and forth by quicksand, and the direction was unstable, and he would slide to the left and walk to the right, so that the front of the car would swing around.

If you want me to say, this little SWAT should have thought about it, if he dodged to the left, he didn't hesitate to go sideways to the left, but every time the front of the car was on one side, the route he dodged also changed.

From a distance, he was also left and right, and he didn't hide far for a long time.

I guess he's really confused, and we don't have anyone to help him, he's dangerous.

Jiang Shaoyan was closest to him and took the initiative to take over this task. He swished as far as he could. It's just that this is a slope, and while Jiang Shaoyan is running, his body is also slightly tilted, trying to master his balance.

The iron donkey didn't pay attention to the little man, he stared more at the jeep and took the keys in his hand.

When he saw his chance, he got up and rushed towards the jeep.

Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey played again, Jiang Shaoyan dragged the little one away in time, and the iron donkey took advantage of the air to pounce on the jeep and sat in the driver's seat.

He plugged in the keys, sneered at the car, and quickly put it in reverse gear, trying to slow down the jeep and stop.

I don't know what the iron donkey thinks, maybe he thinks that the car has slid down for no reason, and there is something wrong with it, and he wants to stop a car and see if he can find any clues in it.

But he didn't reverse well, and the speed did drop, but he still couldn't stop sliding. Jiang Shaoyan asked the little man to sit down and slow down, and beckoned everyone to hurry up and help the iron donkey.

Two special police officers cooperated with Jiang Shaoyan and took advantage of the time to go over to push the cart, while I and another special policeman, although they also rushed over, did not intervene, because they really couldn't find a good position.

The SWAT stood by and waited for an opportunity, while I focused on the little one.

I noticed that he was still a little nervous, and he curled up very tightly despite sitting down. I have a tranquilizer in my chest and want to give him a shot so that he can feel better.

I walked over to him again and told him what I wanted.

The little man didn't object, and stretched out his arms and waited. I hurried to dispense the medicine.

I don't know why, but when I took out the syringe and tranquilizer, I also got a puff of powder.

I know that this medicine powder is a kind of antidote, and I analyzed that the plastic bag containing this medicine must have been broken, allowing the medicine powder to be spilled in the chest pouch.

I didn't care because it wasn't harmful to humans. However, the powder was blown by a small wind and floated wildly. Some of them were blown into the faces of the little ones.

He let out a sudden sigh, and then a terrifying phenomenon appeared.
