Li Er's family is a tenant, and he is a rich and unkind landlord who has old wealth, and in the year of the great drought, he has increased the profits dozens of times when he collects the debts, and he forced his parents to death.

Li Er, who was just over ten years old, was paid off to work as a long-term worker, but he soon found an opportunity to escape and wandered around Heze.

It happened that one day he found the money bag of the owner of the opera troupe, but he did not swallow it privately, and waited for the owner. Liu Banzhu lamented that he was so down, but he still did not lose his character, so he took him in to do chores in the troupe, and since then he has been settled.

After two years, Li Er's voice was not very good after changing his voice, but he was flexible with his hands and feet and became an apprentice. And in the past two years, he has learned very cleverly in the troupe, and the people in the troupe have taken good care of him. Although he did not have an apprenticeship, everyone was willing to teach him two hands, so he learned a variety of martial arts.

Later, the war was chaotic and the troupe dispersed. He went with the class master to his hometown of Baitian Town, Hunan, bought a piece of land, and later married a wife and had children.

He joined the peasant association in his thirties and joined the army at the age of forty-two. He was injured while crossing the Xiangjiang River and has lost contact with the team since then.

His injuries were severe, and in order to avoid searching, he hid in the mountains. So he got acquainted with Tan Wu, the later captain of the martial arts team, and other team members.

Before the Japanese came, they were great heroes who robbed the rich and helped the poor. After the Japanese occupied Shandong, they became anti-Japanese heroes.

Li Er also gave himself a nickname, Xiangjiang Cardinal. It's just that people don't like it for too long, so they call him Li Erye or Erye. His name can only be heard when the people tell the deeds of the martial arts team.

Xiangjiang Cardinal Li Erye, the long knife is headless, and it is very loud.

However, in Li Er's memory, he only remembered the names of the seven team members. They are Tan Wu of Qianlixing, Ma Kaishan of the small pot, Huang Dani of the yellow monkey, Zhao Sanmei of the swallow, Zhu Youde of the old fox, Jin Yuesheng of the iron abacus, and Zhang Lei of Lei Mazi.

The voices and faces of the other team members are stored in his memory like short videos greeting him one by one, but he can't remember their names.

And when it came to the last mission in memory, there were only eight of them.

Li Er couldn't remember if the others had sacrificed or had another task. But he remembers that the mission was very dangerous.

They received information that the Japanese had built a secret base in the cave, and many young men were arrested and did not know what to do.

The mission of the Warriors is to rescue the villagers and find out what secrets are hidden in the cave.

The cave is not hard to find, but the atmosphere there is very eerie.

There was only one way to and from the cave, and the Japanese only set up one outpost at the col, which was guarded by two sentinels. During this period, there was not a single soldier guarding the 100-meter-long mountain road, and there was no secret sentry, and there was no sentry even at the entrance of the cave. There were no barricades at the entrance to the cave, no defensive positions, as if the cave had never been visited.

However, in the mountains and forests around the cave, mines are planted everywhere, and many traps are set up. Rao is an experienced Tan Wu and Lei Mazi, who is good at playing with mines, and it took two days to open up a path.

What's even more bizarre is that there are small patches of dead plants in this area every ten steps, snakes, insects, rats and ants dare not get into it, and even spiders do not form webs nearby.

The iron abacus dug up a pungent lump under the plant, which Rao did not know if he had seen a lot of things in the pawnshop. It can only be judged from the scaly texture on the surface and the slightly elastic texture that this is a piece of animal meat, and it is soaked in persulfuric acid.

They observed the surroundings for five days and found that every two days, at noon, a well-wrapped truck would leave the gendarmerie and drive straight into the cave. Go back in the evening. It's the same car every time, but the driver changes every time.

In this way, the only way to find a way to sneak into the truck and blend into the cave without alerting the driver.

But regardless of whether there is a guard inside the truck, entering without knowing the inside of the cave is undoubtedly going to die.

The eight of them discussed it for a while, and finally decided that instead of breaking in without knowing it, it was better to grab a tongue and come back first.

The driver must have known something inside, and they had their eyes on the devil who drove the other day.

It's a pity that the devil doesn't know much.

Every time the devil went to two people, the truck drove into the cave for about twenty meters and could not move forward. There they unloaded, and at one o'clock six people would come to pick it up, and they would follow to the inner door.

The inner gate is an iron wall, which is embedded in the mountain, and I am afraid that even a bat will not be able to squeeze into it, and there is only a two-meter-wide iron gate at the bottom end.

As for what is behind the door and how many people there are, the driver has no idea. He had to wait outside the door until late afternoon to get the list he needed before leaving.

There is not much information, but it can't hinder the movement of the martial arts team.

At noon that day, Tan Wu and Li Er were ambushed on both sides of the mountain road and sneaked into the truck smoothly.

According to the intelligence, the car was loaded with rice, vegetables, pork, water and other daily necessities, as well as a box of unknown medicines. According to the plan, the two quietly left after throwing the drowsy powder into the water.

While waiting, the iron abacus calculated that if this cart was two days of food, then it was conservatively estimated that there were at least fifty people in the cave.

This result puzzled everyone, according to known intelligence, at least hundreds of Chinese were imprisoned in the cave, could it be that the little devils did not give them food and drink!?

In the evening, the truck returned as usual. Li Er and Yellow Monkey went to deal with the two people at the outpost in case they interfered with the retreat.

By the time the moon climbed over the mountain, there was still no abnormality in the cave.

The action began.

Tan Wu, Huang Monkey, Li Er, and Yanzi relied on their skills to fight in the front, and soon felt into the cave and found the guards guarding the door.

At this time four men were sleeping in tents, and two were sitting by the fire to wind the wind.

With a single move, one of them died under the swallow's flying knife with only a muffled snort, and the other actually dodged! The knife flew past his ear, and he turned his head and hooked his hand, grabbing the knife and throwing it back!

Then he shouted "Naliga" and pulled out a long knife from behind his back and pointed it at the swallow.

Seeing that this person's kung fu was very good, several people knew that they had to kill the other four people by surprise, otherwise there would be a lot of trouble.

The swallow fought with the man, and Tan Wu, Huang Monkey, and Li Er went straight to the tent, but whenever they saw a figure at the door of the tent, they flew all the knives, daggers, and broadswords on their bodies.

Although the two people in front of them were vigilant, they couldn't stand the many flying knives, and they both died of multiple knives. The two people in the back came out with long knives and fought with the three of them.

The devil's tricks are not subtle for a few people, but the knife is fast, the strength is large, and the tacit understanding between each other is tacit, and the three-on-two is tied for a while. And the swallow can't parry, and the danger is full of dangers. It wasn't until the next four people arrived that they learned about these three devils.

Several people gasped and looked at the six corpses, feeling uneasy.

The six people who guard the door are first-class masters in kung fu, if they hadn't caught him off guard, these six people would have joined forces to fight for ten more people.

And after fighting for so long, there is no movement behind the door at all, is there still a master sitting inside, so there is no need to come out to inspect without fear?

On the other side of the iron gate, it is not only dangerous, it may be the tiger's den in Longtan, and the intruder will die for life.

It's not okay not to be prepared, Iron Abacus and Lei Mazi stayed at the door to lay mines, set traps, and be responsible for the queen and reception. The others worked in groups of three and entered the door.

The space behind the iron gate was huge, the size of a basketball court, but there was only a roaring generator and a dozen barrels of oil.

Electric lights are installed on the cave wall on the right-hand side every 10 meters, emitting a dim glow.

After about fifty paces inside, the cave began to shrink, and about a hundred paces forward, the top of the cave was about three meters high from the ground, and less than four meters wide.

At this time, we had come to the end of the cave, and a tunnel had been dug manually. The tunnel has railroad tracks, and it looks like a mine.

"Look!"

Li Er picked up a piece of cloth on the railroad tracks, which was a common coarse cloth on ordinary people's clothes, but the cloth was full of blood stains and had turned black.

Swallow exclaimed, "It's also here!" ”

The corner where she was was was covered with pieces of cloth, stained with blood, and blackened. And on the nearby cave wall, there are many traces of blood spattered.

Seeing this, the yellow monkey clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "There must be a lot of villagers killed here, these brutes." ”

Tan Wu waved his knife and pointed to the tunnel, looking firmly into the depths of the darkness, "Old fox, you go down the thunder first, whether we can get out or not, we must blow up this, let's go explore the way first." ”

Everyone responded, and Tan Wu, Li Er, and Yanzi entered the tunnel.

But after walking a few steps, I saw a shocking scene, dense finger marks appeared on the two walls of the tunnel, many of which were mixed with blood and even minced meat. It was left by people who were forcibly dragged away by picking at the wall with their hands, and the longest one was actually dragged out five meters long!

Not long after continuing to walk inside, a fork in the road appeared. Three tunnels with railroad tracks leading to the tunnel on the right. However, Li Er noticed that there was wind flowing in the tunnel on the left, and after a brief exchange, he decided to explore the tunnel on the left first.

After going more than 20 steps, the tunnel turned an oblique angle to the right. And the tunnel becomes spacious and bright, and it can be used by four people in parallel. The level of engineering is significantly better than the outside, even the floor is paved with cement. After walking about thirty meters, the end of the tunnel was reached, and an iron gate appeared.

The door was not locked, but through the crack in the door saw the deadbolt on the other side.

Fearing danger if forced open, the trio decided to explore the other tunnels first.

But at the moment of turning around, there was a sudden miserable cry from behind the iron gate, and it sounded that the man was suffering from unbearable human pain, and the cry became weaker and weaker, and there was no sound in less than half a minute.

The three of them were anxious, but they couldn't open the iron door and couldn't do anything. Hoping that other tunnels could be entered, the three of them quickened their pace.

The old fox and the others rushed up, and after knowing the situation, they went to the tunnel on the right, and Tan Wu and the others went to the tunnel in the middle.

The tunnel in the middle didn't go far without lights, but you could see the light at the end. The three of them cautiously touched the wall, and walked about three hundred steps to the mouth of the tunnel.

The three of them were taken aback by what they saw.

It's a well-like space, only bigger and deeper.

There are many coffins hanging on the rock wall, three or four on each floor, arranged neatly and staggered in order, with a total of eleven layers, a total of thirty-nine coffins.

And at the bottom of the deep cave, a sarcophagus is parked in the center.

This is the grave!
