Chapter 70: Tracking!!
Chapter 70: Tracking!!
In fact......
Since learning that Liu Jian and He Jianlong had fled to the Yunchuan base, Xia Jian has been looking for an opportunity to find a way to see if he can completely solve the two hidden dangers of Peng Wei and Mo Shaojun......
During that time, Xia Jian even fired an extremely generous bounty for this!
However......
He Jianlong's old guy is worthy of being a scheming old fox......
Under his series of means......
Not only did Xia Jian's bounty become a dead letter, but with his help, Liu Jian was even more prosperous, not only gaining a firm foothold in the Yunchuan base, but then further allowing Liu Jian to control the crusade army all the way!
And even if it is......
He Jianlong still did not forget to beware of Xia Jian......
In the time that followed, whenever he needed them to show up, he would always make full preparations......
In the late stages......
He is even more perverted, using his power to find a few people who are similar to himself and act as his stand-in......
So much so that Xia Jian didn't find any opportunity to start!!
In the next period of time, Xia Jian had more and more things to do, so he had to put their affairs aside for the time being, but he didn't think that they would actually make such a big deal as soon as they were distracted......
…………
But this time, they actually dared to contact the Jiaoyang clan, to some extent, it was equivalent to forcing Xia Jian to deal with them!!
It's simple......
If you don't get rid of them......
That in the next time, the situation of the ancient city. Will be very passive!!
And just ......
Now they have not only lost the shelter of the Yunchuan base, but also because they have done such angry things, they have become street rats that everyone shouts and beats......
In this case. It's going to be a lot easier to track them down than it was before......
………………
One day later......
Central China Regional ......
As the climate warms up, the entire central region, in addition to being covered with snow, is slightly greener than before......
It's this hint of green. Let the whole earth have a sense of vitality!!
In fact, it is......
As the fallout floats in the sky, it gets thinner and thinner. The earth, which was once dark, is now finally able to bathe in the sun again!
Even if this ray of sunlight is so faint, it is enough to make it. Those from the snow and ice. The bare branches and leaves of the grass and trees sprout new green shoots again......
This is particularly evident in the central mountainous areas......
Hualong Mountains!
The largest mountain range in the entire central region was even regarded as part of the dragon vein of the entire Huaguo in ancient times, and also because of the many strange peaks and mountains and lush trees during it. The transportation is not convenient......
Always off the beaten track!!
This is even true in modern times. Nothing has changed......
Even, in recent years, with the enhancement of people's awareness of environmental protection, this place has been developed into a tourist attraction, and from time to time there are rumors that some people have seen wild people here......
Of course......
As for whether it is true or not, it is a question of the benevolent and the wise! At least when Xia Jian heard the news, he just listened to it as a joke!!
But one thing, at least for sure......
In such a large mountain range, if you want to hide a few people, it is still quite simple......
Equally......
It is precisely because it is inaccessible here that there will be no dark chasers......
After the end of the world, many survivors, in desperation, will also choose to flee into this mountain range......
As for whether they survived in the end, it is unknown!!
…………
Among the mountains in the middle of the Hualong Mountains, there is such a strange place that no one knows......
Several steep peaks up to a thousand meters above sea level are densely packed together, among which the trees are dense and the beasts are herd......
But it is precisely because of these peaks that they are too close to each other, and they are integrated......
That......
Through the satellites in the sky, you can only see that this place is green, and you can't see the real situation here, and it is easy to mistake it for a huge mountain with a large scale......
In the eyes of a normal person......
This place should be inaccessible!
But in fact, on the contrary, in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was indeed lively for a while......
At that time......
Due to the tense relations between the country and a certain major country in the north, in order to prevent the possibility of a nuclear war breaking out at any time, a wave of deep holes and grain accumulation have been set off throughout the country......
This place, located in the depths of the Hualong Mountains and rarely visited by people on weekdays, was hit by some people above at that time......
So......
In such a deep mountain, an unusually mighty construction campaign has been launched!
Huge caves, fortifications, in such a situation, in the most primitive way, appeared in this mountain peak......
However......
Over time, after a few years, the one on the back was beaten, but for some special reason, the whole empire collapsed......
At a time when the nascent regime is busy with itself, busy with stabilizing the situation......
Naturally, I don't have time, and I will compete with Huaguo again! And during this period, the tense atmosphere in the country and their original saber-rattling has finally been alleviated!
In such a big atmosphere......
This area, located in the middle of the mountains, is useless all of a sudden!!
And......
Due to the terrain here, it is too treacherous, and it is also too far away from the boundary of human civilization, after a period of selection......
The Upper Authorities finally had to reluctantly abandon this piece of fortification......
Fortunately......
At the time of the withdrawal of troops on all fronts. The commander who occupied the last shift couldn't bear to see that so much manpower and material resources were spent. The fortifications that had been built with great difficulty were destroyed in one fell swoop under the erosion of wind and rain!!
When leaving, without receiving an order from above, he hid from the above and sealed this piece of fortification......
In the blink of an eye, forty years have passed......
The old man who participated in this project at the beginning. It's all gone, and this is the most primitive nuclear fortification in the mountains. With the departure of these old people, they were grouped into a document and then thrown into a forgotten corner......
If nothing special happens......
Maybe this place, along with that document. Forgotten forever!
Until one day......
Someone inadvertently broke into here. This fortification, which has consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, will see the light of day again......
………………
Because it's off the beaten track......
The trees here are growing so amazingly that they can be seen everywhere that it takes seven or eight people to hug them......
The bitter cold wind, as if never tireless, raged over and over again in these towering trees, blowing up and down the branches and leaves that had just sprouted a few buds......
From a distance, it looks like the waves of the sea......
There is a "rustling ......" sound!!
But at this moment......
"Hmm......"
There was a low voice. A groan of pain suddenly came from the sound of the chaotic branches and leaves......
Follow the sound and look at the past......
That's the pinnacle of a mountain!!
And that's not all. This mountain is also the highest of the surrounding peaks......
Looking around, the view is extremely open, and the whole mountain range is in full view, and you can see it at a glance!
The muffled snort just now came from a large tree that grew extremely thick on this mountain peak......
"Poof......
Faintly, a series of liquid spills seemed to be heard......
The next moment......
A large cloud of red liquid, splashing down from the top of the tree, scattered on the ground, on the snow-covered snow, splattered a large area of shocking bright red......
Faintly, there seemed to be a wisp of white heat, slowly rising from this bright red......
There was also a smell of blood, which quickly spread through the air......
"Click......"
At the same time, above the treetops, there was a sudden crisp sound of a series of branches and leaves breaking......
Follow the sound and look at the past......
A black figure, looming among the lush branches and leaves, pressed several arm-thick branches, and kept moaning in pain......
I was about to lean over to see the ......
Those branches finally couldn't bear the weight of this black shadow and broke off from it......
After losing its support, the black shadow fell towards the ground like a stubborn stone......
"Bang ......"
Just hear a muffled sound......
This black shadow finally fell to the ground, and suddenly on the snow, a large snowflake was splashed......
Wait until the snowflakes are gone......
What was revealed was suddenly a corpse of a soldier dressed in military uniform, with a shocking wound on his neck, spraying viscous blood and convulsions incessantly......
…………
At this moment, time seems to freeze......
The whole world ......
It seemed that all that was left was the sound of "......" when the blood water splattered from the corpse twitching on the ground and the neck wound......
I don't know how long it took......
"Didi ......"
A clear, electronically synthesized sound rang out at the top of the treetops......
Immediately after, a low, hoarse voice was heard, and he specially lowered his voice and whispered: "Point 1 has been confirmed to be cleaned up!" Point 1 has been confirmed to be cleared......"
"Stand by ......"
This deep voice had just fallen, and a deep voice came out again......
However, it can be clearly heard that the owner of this voice was not at the scene, because the sound, which can be clearly heard, came from some kind of electronic communication device......
"Received ......"
……………………
End of call......
"Bang ......"
Just listen to a dull loud noise, after the birth of this big tree. Suddenly it shook violently......
Suddenly......
The thick snow that had accumulated on the branches and leaves of this big tree was shaken down one after another, and for a while. The sound of falling is endless, and from time to time I hear the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground......
It was the snow that had frozen over time, and pieces had fallen from the branches of the trees......
Wait until a few seconds later......
The big tree finally stopped shaking, and the snowflakes that filled the sky slowly under the fierce cold wind as time passed. was swept away without a trace......
At this time......
Look at the snow beneath this big tree......
The shocking red blood stains from before, and the corpse twitching on the ground, have long since disappeared at this time!!
Go without saying......
It's already buried under that thick snow......
The scene soon fell silent again......
It's quiet all around. It's as if nothing had happened before......
Only in the air, the slightest hint of blood slowly diffused towards the surroundings with the fierce cold wind......
………………
I don't know how long it took......
"Click......
Suddenly, there was a series in the distance. Extremely slight footsteps......
The sound is very light and brisk......
And it doesn't quite look like human footsteps. On the contrary, it was as if some mutated creature was speeding through the snow at a speed of several pieces......
The sound goes from far to near, from small to loud......
In just a few seconds, it goes from being faint to being clearly visible......
Soon......
The snow-white figure of the five vigorous and almost integrated with the surrounding snow-covered snow rushed out of the jungle and rushed in this direction as fast as lightning......
It's closer......
White hair. A calf-sized body with sharp eyes. And those sharp teeth and claws......
These five white figures are five mutated snow wolves!
It's just a few seconds......
The five mutated snow wolves crossed a distance of hundreds of meters and came to the big tree where the corpse had fallen just now......
The head wolf, who was quite humane, showed a hint of doubt, looked left and right, and then shook his nose and sniffed in the air......
Next Second......
The wolf turned its head sharply and cast its gaze on a small snow mound that protruded not far away......
"Woo ......"
With a low roar, he beckoned to the other four companions who were looking for him nearby, and the wolf landed on the small snow hill that was slightly protruding......
Then a pair of forelimbs quickly scraped up on the snow......
When the other four mutated snow wolves arrived, a white camouflage military uniform fabric had been dug out of the snow by the head wolf......
"Woo ......"
Seeing the corpse, the five mutated snow wolves suddenly became excited and kept letting out low roars......
Just a few seconds......
A whole, not even fully frozen corpse, had been dug out of the snow......
…………
In these last days......
Because of the harsh climate, it's not just humans who lack food......
Even mutated creatures like wolves are suffering from a lack of food!
After all......
The food source of predators like wolves is mainly some vegetarian creatures, but now, the earth is frozen, all kinds of plants are frozen, and the number of various vegetarian creatures is greatly decreasing due to the lack of food sources......
Now the only ones that can reproduce on a large scale are basically only mutant mice......
Can it be ......
It's deep in the jungle off the beaten track......
Even those mutant rats who live on some garbage are jealous and scarce!
In this case, even the general predators are extremely limited because they oppose the source of food and the development of the population......
Want to solve this problem......
Maybe we can only wait until the day when the climate warms up, the earth is unblocked, and everything recovers......
And for this reason......
The human corpse in front of him is enough to serve as food for these five mutant snow wolves for almost a whole day! This makes these five mutant snow wolves, who have been hungry for several days, not excited......
…………
The bloody feast soon began......
Among the five mutant snow wolves, the first wolf took possession of the corpse. The chest and abdomen, which have the softest flesh, open the bloody mouth, and bite down......
With sharp teeth sinking into the belly. Pull it out again......
The large strings of scarlet, slippery, and steaming intestines, together with the blood gushing out, were suddenly pulled out of the stomach by the head wolf......
I saw the head wolf move......
The remaining few mutant snow wolves also unceremoniously began to open their bloody mouths......
In an instant......
A complete human corpse is under the scramble of five mutated snow wolves. The corpses of those who were dismantled into eight pieces were divided......
Meanwhile......
In order to compete for more weight, the five mutant snow wolves also let out a low "whin...... howl to each other. Constantly threatening his nearby companions......
…………
Just as the five mutated snow wolves feasted on this corpse......
Suddenly......
"Boom la la ......"
Directly above the five mutant snow wolves, a series of strong winds suddenly made a sound of breaking the air as the clothes were blowing......
Followed by......
There was a cold wind overhead. Gently swaying foliage. Suddenly, there was a shaking, and it was inexplicably separated in the surroundings......
It's as if something has fallen from the sky!
But in reality?
As far as the eye could see, the area was empty, and nothing could be seen......
This series of movements naturally attracted the attention of the mutant snow wolves who were competing for food below, and the five mutant snow wolves were all vigilant and stopped eating at the first time. Qi Qi shifted his attention to the direction where the sound came from just now......
It's a pity......
What they see. It was still empty......
Looking at the lush branches and leaves that quickly returned to their original state in the blink of an eye, the five mutated snow wolves all showed a hint of doubt in a rather humane manner......
Obviously, they weren't able to see any creatures either......
Just when they were wondering if it was possible that they were too nervous and were going to withdraw their eyes and continue to enjoy their food......
The head wolf suddenly turned his head, and with his sharp, cold eyes, he stared at the thigh-thick branch of this big tree not far away......
At first glance......
There is nothing special about this branch!
It's also empty, and you can't see anything......
But if you look closely, you will find that although there is nothing on this branch, it is strange, and it is slightly tilted down at a very abnormal angle......
It's as if you've been bent by something heavy!!
…………
Of course......
The wolf must not have seen this problem, and the reason why it suddenly looked here was because, in that place, it faintly felt an extremely dangerous aura......
This feeling makes the head wolf feel strongly uneasy!
Especially now, when they are just harvesting their food......
"Woo ......"
Subconscious ......
The wolf hissed in warning and made an attacking gesture in that direction......
The remaining four wolves also followed suit, all of them were lying on the ground, and roared in a low voice in that direction......
It's just that......
Is there really anything wrong with that direction?
"Hehe......"
After a moment of confrontation, a chuckle suddenly came from that direction......
Immediately, I heard a deep voice and chuckled: "Don't hide, everyone, come out!" Save that brute, and think we want to grab something from it......"
Judging from the voice alone, the person who spoke should be a young man with a small grade......
However......
In his voice, there was an irresistible majesty......
And, as the figure fell......
On the branch of the tree, which was originally empty, the space suddenly blurred, and then, a figure dressed in black and carrying a double-bladed giant axe almost as tall as others appeared directly from the air from blur to clarity......
And after this man emerges from the air......
On his side, a man and a woman appeared one after another!!
The man was very tall, one meter and nine meters tall, with a resolute face......
The woman was dressed in a tight leather suit, and there was a pair of huge bat wings behind her back, which gently fanned in the air......
…………
Among the three, the person with the double-edged giant axe on his back was none other than Xia Jian!
As for the two people on Xia Jian's side......
The woman on the left with wings on her back, who could she be if she wasn't Xu Renee......
And that man!
The identity is a bit special!!
Ah Hai!!
That powerful person, but his brain, was injured and lost his memory, and he came to Ah Hai in Pangu City with Ouyang Qian!!
And until now, Ah Hai's memory has not been recovered......
…………
This time, the reason why Xia Jian appeared here was naturally for Peng Wei and Mo Shaojun......
According to a survey conducted some time ago......
Liu Jian and his entourage, the last place to appear was near the Hualong Mountains......
And it just so happened that Hu Minghai accidentally learned that there was such an extremely secret place in the Hualong Mountain Range......
Touching the melon under the vine......
Xia Jiancai finally found this place!!
The results also proved ......
Xia Jian's move was really right!
As soon as I arrived this morning, I found some traces of a large number of human activities in this area......
