Chapter Ninety-Nine: Mysterious Death
"Blade?" I looked at the iron piece in surprise, it turned out that this inconspicuous thing was still a sword blade, but how could this thing be lost in that ding, and what was the origin of that giant ding?
A series of doubts lingered in my mind again, Lao Pan put away the thing that seemed to be a sword blade, waved his hand, and said, "Let's get out of here first, find a place to rest, and then we'll talk about it then." ”
"Getting out of here? No way. As soon as I heard Lao Pan say that he was leaving, I immediately became anxious and said: "Ansaari's life and death are unknown, and there is Lu Haikong to save him, if the two of them come out, they must be in urgent need of help, if we leave, then what will they do?" ”
Lao Pan looked at me and said, "What, do you really think that they will come out again?" Let's not talk about anything else, even if they succeed and suppress that underground dragon qi, how can Brother An come out with a heavy body that is highly poisonous? As for that Lu Haikong, his identity is suspicious, you believe him, I don't believe him. ”
"But Ansari chose to sacrifice in order to let us escape, even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, I have to wait for him here, otherwise it will be unjust." I stuck to my principles and went toe-to-toe with Lao Pan.
Lao Pan frowned, but ignored me, he looked around, and suddenly said, "Everyone still has food, water, and ammunition, report it." ”
Zhang Ye was the first to shake his head: "I don't have any food and water on me at all, and there are some bullets, but everything else is used up." ”
"I'm similar to Brother Ye, I'm running out of ammunition and food." Da Kui also spoke.
"I still have a little water here." This is Ah Sheng.
The three of them reached the point of exhaustion, Lao Pan glanced at Yan Laogou again, Yan Laogou shrugged his shoulders, and pretended to be humorous: "Don't look at me, I am now the commander of the light pole, everything has been thrown away by you, you want food, unless you eat me." ”
His tone was very relaxed, but no one laughed, and Lao Pan also lifted his backpack, looked at me and said, "I'm just like them, Brother Yuan, what about you?" ”
I'm speechless, I understand what Lao Pan means, now everyone has no food or water, and the ammunition is almost exhausted, it is impossible to waste useless time here, and use the safety of a few people to wait for an Ansari who will hardly come out again.
"Brother Yuan, if there is another wave of ghost ants now, we will ......"
"Half a day, I only need half a day." I interrupted Pan's words, looked up at the sky, and said, "I understand our current situation, let's wait here until noon, the sun is overhead, if they still haven't come out, then don't wait any longer, how about it?" ”
Lao Pan frowned, thought for a while, looked at the sky again, and finally nodded: "Okay, I promise you, the current hour is about nine o'clock in the morning, noon, whether they come out or not, let's set off immediately." ”
"Okay, that's a deal." I nodded heavily.
A few of us quickly found a big tree on the side of the road, sat down to rest, in fact, I also understand in my heart, the reason why Lao Pan will agree to my request, another main reason is that everyone is very tired, in urgent need of rest, you must know that we entered the Black Water Demon Cave yesterday afternoon, it is now the morning of the next day, it can be said that we have been in it all night, and we have not eaten or drunk.
In game terms, we can count as an overnight quest farm.
It's just a pity that as a result of a few people's overnight copy, they brushed half of the blade, which is a special material, and the key is that I don't know what this thing is for!
So, it's a break for all of us, and it's also Ansari's last chance, and if he can't come out during this time, then it means that he probably won't see each other again.
Everyone has no food, which is natural, because I am the logistics minister, and I eat and drink all here, but this long journey, coupled with yesterday's desperate travel, and the use of more than two pots of water for Lu Haikong, at this moment, all I can take out is some compressed biscuits, two cans of beef, and half a bottle of water that I drank before.
At this time, water is more important than food, but there is no way, adding my water and Ah Sheng's together, it is only a little more than a bottle, and the five of us, plus Yan Lao Dog, are not enough at all.
In the end, we could only drink two sips of one person, moistened our throats, and the rest of the little was left for the road, and we didn't dare to eat the biscuits, and we were even more thirsty after eating, so we could only deal with chewing a few pieces of beef and filling our stomachs.
Lao Pan encouraged us and said that as long as we follow this road and find the water source we encountered when we came, we will be saved. I remembered the task given to me by Ansari, and nodded and said, "If you cross Ant Mountain and return to Shenlong Village, you will be able to get new supplies, and everyone will be able to return smoothly."
After resting for a while, there was still enough time, Lao Pan called out to Yan Laogou and began to interrogate.
According to the previous agreement, we took Yan Laogou down the mountain, and he wanted to give us an honest explanation, but after sitting down, Yan Laogou was a little hesitant, as if he didn't know what to say, and he didn't seem to dare to say nonsense.
Lao Pan looked at him and said: "Since there are some things you don't want to say, then you can first tell me what kind of place this Black Water Demon Cave is, and what is going on with the Ten Thousand Corpse Mounds, you'd better not sue me, you don't even know this." ”
Under the gaze of several people like sharp blades, Yan Laogou finally opened his mouth and told us what he knew, about the situation in this Black Water Demon Cave.
But this guy is very cunning, he doesn't talk about his own problems, he first talked about a hundred years ago, but it doesn't matter, anyway, there is enough time, and if you want to talk about this matter, you really have to start from a hundred years ago.
He told us that a hundred years ago, more than a hundred years ago to be exact, that is, in 1900, according to the Lu Hai Kong, it was the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu......
In that year, the Manchu Emperor had a premonition that the end was coming, and finally remembered to temporarily cram, and sent people to the legendary immortal heavenly residence on the boundary of the sixty-four tun in Jiangdong, and came to worship and pray for the protection of the immortal heaven.
At that time, the team that was ordered to go here set off in June, at this time in fact, the situation in the whole country had fallen into dire straits, the Eight-Nation Coalition continued to increase troops to China, and began a fierce attack on Tianjin and Dagukou and other places, and launched the notorious Eight-Nation Coalition War of Aggression against China.
But this qiē was not known to the sacrificial group at that time, but at that time, Tsarist Russia had almost controlled half of the Northeast, and the army had already been secretly assembled, and at the same time that the Eight-Nation Alliance was approaching Beijing step by step, Tsarist Russia created a massacre of 10,000 people in Jiangdong Sixty-four Tun and Hailan Pao Territory, and then crossed the Heilongjiang River and invaded the Northeast on a large scale.
But these are still unknown to the sacrificial group that has entered the Black Water Demon Cave.
It's just that when they began to carry out sacrificial activities, an army of Tsarist Russia also secretly came to the Black Water Demon Cave, and their task was to be ordered to transport the slaughtered tens of thousands of civilians to the Black Water Demon Cave.
In the Black Water Demon Cave, the two sides met unexpectedly, and launched a fierce battle, and finally the sacrificial group was outnumbered, almost all the army was wiped out, we saw in a stone room in the Black Water Demon Cave, those dried corpses that were hung up, that is, the Qing Army Shenji Battalion soldiers.
At that time, in order to create a mound of ten thousand corpses, Tsarist Russia took a lot of effort, they intercepted the underground dark river, and opened up the secret passage under the waterhole, so that the pool dried up, and then transported the ten thousand corpses to the waterhole, which is what we saw.
Yan Laogou's words came to this point, but after listening to them for a long time, we found that he just summarized what we already knew and some of the situations that we had guessed.
The corresponding content was also said by Lu Haikong before, so what he said was actually the same as what he didn't say.
Why did Tsarist Russia build a mound of ten thousand corpses? What was the purpose of their coming to the Black Water Demon Cave?
That's what really matters.
But Lao Pan didn't move, and after listening quietly, he asked Yan Laogou what they came here for, and who they were assigned.
To our surprise, for this question, Yan Laogou answered very simply, he said, no one assigned, just came in to hunt for treasures, because some people said that the Black Water Demon Cave has many utensils used to worship the heavens in the past, and they are all treasures.
He said it very calmly, but Lao Pan, who had always been calm, was furious, grabbed Yan Laogou, and shouted angrily: "Yan Laogou, I have already given you a chance, are you going to die?" You're just here for treasure hunting? No one to assign? Fuck your shit, what's going on! ”
As he spoke, he grabbed Yan Laogou's collar, turned it over and pulled it, and pulled a dark green nameplate badge from it.
"What is this? Let's be clear. ”
"This, this is our team emblem......" Yan Laogou said in a hurry, Zhang Ye listened to the fire, went up is a kick, kicked Yan Laogou to the ground, and scolded: "Team emblem, your sister, you are a mouse, you want to use the English alphabet as the team emblem, I can afford you, this is fucking Russian, Lao Maozi's letters, say, what the hell is going on!" ”
As soon as Zhang Ye's fiery temper came up, the atmosphere immediately became tense, Yan Laogou was kicked over and fell to the ground, but he only twitched twice, and then he couldn't get up.
"You're still going to play dead, aren't you? I'm a fucking ......."
Zhang Ye was even more annoyed, walked over with a scolding grin, picked up Yan Laogou, and was about to scold again, but his eyes suddenly froze, and his face showed a look of horror, and he couldn't help but let go of his hand, and screamed "ah"!
We snatched it together, but at the same time, we were shocked, and we saw that Yan Laogou's face was blue and purple, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and he seemed to have died of anger!
