Chapter 217 [There is a Wolf Later] (I)
"This is it!" Martha, after some time of observation, finally pointed to a pine tree, which did not look any different from the other trees around her, and squatted down to observe the surrounding mud, but found no signs of human infestation.
But Martha was so sure that they started digging beside the pine tree, and it was not long before they found a stone slab, and they worked together to pry it up, and sure enough, they saw a black hole under the stone slab.
Song Changjin quietly looked at Martha on the side, this Tajik girl said so surely, it seems that she must know the road to the Heavenly Temple, Zhang Changgong raised his head and shouted to Song Changjin at this time: "Don't come over to help?"
Song Changjin sighed and said, "I'm old and frail, and I can't help much. In fact, he was not yet fifty, not old, and walked over slowly, Zhang Changgong straightened up, pointed to the cave below, and asked Song Changjin's opinion: "What do you think?" Although Zhang Changgong didn't like Song Changjin, he had to admit this guy's skills.
Song Changjin observed the entrance of the cave, this cave should also be an artificial robbery hole, not the main entrance, he quietly pulled Zhang Longbow aside, said his opinion, and then said: "Brother Zhang, I think this Tajik woman is very eccentric, as the saying goes, if you are not from my race, there must be different hearts, if my nephew didn't listen to her and came here, he wouldn't have ended up like this." Speaking of Luo Hunt, who was swallowed by a sandworm, Song Changjin showed a little sadness.
Zhang Changgong said: "Now is not the time to talk about these things, I only ask your opinion, do you think this cave can lead to the Heavenly Temple?"
Song Changjin said: "Brother Zhang, you have also seen with your own eyes, the sandworm swallowed my nephew in one gulp, how can he still be alive? Of course I want to save him, but anyone who has some reason should understand that he has become food in the stomach of the sandworm at this moment, even if we can find the sandworm and open its belly, my nephew will not survive." ”
Zhang Changgong was silent, but Song Changjin's words were the truth, Luo Lie was swallowed by a sandworm, and after such a long time, according to common sense, it has been almost digested by the sandworm at this moment.
Song Changjin continued: "I only have this one nephew, I am more sad than you when he dies, but sadness is sadness, we can't lose our minds, if we continue like this, everyone will be sent to death, even if Luo Liequan knows, he doesn't want us to do this for him." ”
Of course, Zhang Changgong understood what Song Changjin meant, and sighed and said, "This kind of thing is originally all voluntary, and I won't force you." He looked around at the crowd: "I won't force anyone, if you want to save people, stay, think that we are doing useless work, we can leave now, I will never keep it." ”
Yan Tianxin silently took out the rope from her bag, preparing to enter the cave, Zhang Changgong said it well, saving people is all voluntary, she has no right to force anyone, even if everyone leaves, she will not leave, if Luo Lie is alive, she will find him, if Luo Lie is dead, she will also find the body. Yan Tianxin still didn't believe that Luo Lie would die, she remembered the scene where the two of them were attacked by a group of one-eyed beasts in the water, and she also thought that the two of them would definitely die, but Luo Lie used the pen to create a protective shield.
The pen was still in Luo Lie's hand, and with his wit and reflexes, he wouldn't have thought of it. Thinking of that pen, Yan Tianxin's mood calmed down a lot, and she thought that there was a great hope that Luo Lie was still alive.
It has been nearly two hours since Luo Lie was swallowed by a sandworm, and everyone's mood has gradually returned to reason from grief and indignation, there are still a few people who have such thoughts as Song Changjin, since Luo Lie is dead, is it worth taking the risk for a dead man?
Zhou Wenhu hesitated, after his eyes and Zhao Luxin communicated with each other, the two had reached a tacit understanding, and they decided not to continue the adventure, after all, they did not belong to this team in the first place, and the two of them couldn't help much, not to mention that they thought that Luo Lie was dead, although Luo Hunt was kind to them, but they didn't need to take their lives to accompany the funeral.
The two Tajiks were muttering something, and they were trying to persuade Martha not to follow them in their own language, and since they had brought these people to the entrance, they would have completed their mission and given an account to the dead Luo Hunt.
Martha shook her head, her expression firm, "I'll stay!" she told the two people in her own language, telling them to leave, and telling the others what had happened here. What prompted her to stay was not only the guilt of Luo Lie, but also because of the Quran that may be hidden in the Heavenly Temple, even if she sacrificed her life for the sake of her faith.
Zhang Changgong said: "Who else is leaving?"
Song Changjin was about to open his mouth to talk about himself, but he heard Lu Weilin behind him say coldly: "You can't go, you are the only one in our group who robs the tomb, what should I do if I encounter a trap when I turn around?"
Song Changjin cried and said with a sad face: "Heavenly Temple, it's not a tomb......
Lu Weilin's hand had already fallen on the handle of the gun: "Either follow us, or I will shoot you with one shot, you choose!"
In fact, Zhang Changgong didn't want this guy to leave, but he said that he was not reluctant, he always said that he couldn't take it back, and now it was naturally best for Lu Weilin to come out and sing with a white face.
Song Changjin looked at Zhang Changgong for help and said, "Brother Zhang, it's not that you don't ...... reluctantly."
Zhang Changgong nodded and said, "I will never force you." ”
Song Changjin understood now, he originally felt that Zhang Changgong was loyal, this guy was not a good thing at all, and he spent a long time entertaining Lao Tzu, as for people like Zhou Wenhu and Zhao Luxin, they are not enough to succeed and more than fail, and they are useless to them, of course there is no need to stay, but he is different, Lu Weilin understands that the traps of underground organs are all on his own.
Tiewa snorted and glared at Song Changjin with disdain, extremely disdainful of his behavior of wanting to escape.
Song Changjin saw the situation and understood that he couldn't get out at all, since he couldn't go, he simply behaved more magnificently, stared at him and said: "I'm just testing you, in fact, I won't leave any of you, I want to avenge my nephew, whoever doesn't go is a bastard." ”
Zhou Wenhu and Zhao Luxin's faces turned green, and they scolded Song Changjin eight hundred times in their hearts, this old bastard clearly wanted to drag everyone into the water. Fortunately, Zhang Longbow didn't mean to force the others, and said softly: "It doesn't make sense for too many people to go in, this entrance has to be guarded, Arnold, you and Tiewa are responsible for guarding here." ”
Arnold said: "I have to go, none of you are as good as me in terms of explosions, if you encounter a job that requires opening mountains and blasting rocks, I can't do it." ”
Lu Weilin said: "What's the big deal, let you guard it, you can guard it, you can't let Tiewa be outside alone." ”
Tiewa said: "I don't want to guard outside, I want to go together, I want to save my Uncle Luo." Arnold nodded.
Zhao Luxin was also infected by the affection and righteousness of this group of people, and he took the initiative to say: "It's better for me to stay, although it can't help much, it's still okay to look at the wind." ”
In the end, no one left, and everyone chose to stay. It's just that Zhou Wenhu and the others didn't go into the cave with everyone, and stayed outside to be responsible for answering.
Yan Tianxin was the first to slide off the rope, and Zhang Changgong was worried that she had made a mistake, so he asked Lu Weilin to follow her footsteps to cover her.
Everyone entered the cave, Zhou Wenhu and Zhao Luxin glanced at each other, both laughed at the same time, Zhao Luxin said, "Why don't you leave?"
Zhou Wenhu said: "Where can I go? Go back to Xinmanying Camp and die, I don't know what monsters are hidden outside, it is better to stay here than to be swallowed by monsters." He paused and said, "Why don't you go?"
Zhao Luxin said: "My life was saved by others, I thought I was going to die, this life was picked up, and if I lost it, I lost it, and there is nothing to be sorry for." ”
The two Tajiks suddenly stood up, they heard the sound of the branches and leaves, and at the same time they bent their bows and arrows to aim at the place where the sound was made, but there was no one there, and they blinked.
Zhou Wenhu took out his pistol and said in a deep voice: "Is it the wind?"
A Tajik man walked towards the place where the branches were dangling, and there was no one behind him, he turned and made a false alarm gesture to several people, but his neck suddenly broke, his head rolled off his shoulders to the ground, and blood spurted upwards like a fountain from the broken cavity.
The other three were taken aback, Zhou Wenhu raised his gun and aimed there to shoot continuously, but he couldn't see any target, Zhou Wenhu couldn't help but think of the scene when Fujino Tadanobu went to the Marshal's Mansion before, and he was terrified to the extreme.
After a flurry of fire, they stopped, and found that there was no one or beast around, and at the moment when they stopped shooting, the only remaining Tajik let out a scream, and saw his body cut open from it, split into two halves, and fell to the side.
Zhao Luxin and Zhou Wenhu were horrified in their hearts, the two of them aimed at the Tajik and kept shooting, Zhao Luxin quickly finished the bullet in the magazine, and was about to change the magazine with one hand, when a knife passed through the back of his neck, and the bloody blade stretched out from his throat, Zhao Luxin saw his own blood, and his throat made a ho-ho sound.
Zhou Wenhu saw his best friend die in front of him, his eyes were about to split, and when he raised his gun and was about to shoot again, he was hit hard in the back of the head, and he fell to the ground.
Baihui gradually appeared behind Zhou Wenhu, and the two black-clothed ninjas in the woods accompanied Fujino Tadanobu out slowly, Fujino Tadanobu said softly: "Leave him, I still have a use." ”
Wu Jie came to the front of the giant scorpion and sniffed, Luo Lie was worried that the mucus flowing out of the giant scorpion's body was poisonous, and reminded him: "Sir, be careful, this giant scorpion may have strange poison." ”
Wu Jie said: "Have you ever seen such a huge scorpion?"
