Chapter 142: An Island on the High Seas
Eight o'clock in the morning
Xie Lingtian was woken up by a loud noise.
In the past few nights, Xie Lingtian hadn't closed his eyes much, and the recovery speed of the black light was getting slower and slower, making him feel exhausted.
Xie Lingtian got up and went out of the room to visit Sonina, but was told by Long Qing that Yu Ke had sent someone to take her away overnight.
His brow furrowed, and his mood worsened.
The two walked up to the top of the building, looking at the lush and tall oak forest in front of them, Xie Lingtian took a deep breath and secretly prayed for it in his heart.
After all, Sonina's serious injury was caused by herself.
He thought about it for a long time before he collected his mood, turned his head to look at Long Qing and asked, "What about Yu Ke and others?" ”
"Manager Yu left last night, only to tell me, let us rest here and wait." Long Qing replied.
Xie Lingtian nodded and fell silent.
Long Qing looked at his slightly gloomy back, and an indescribable feeling appeared in his heart.
Just as the two of them stood still in contemplation, a bell broke the quiet atmosphere.
[Mr. Xie, the mission begins, and the boat will be on the island in ten minutes.] Yu Ke on the other end of the phone explained succinctly.
Ten minutes later, Yu Ke's subordinates took Xie Lingtian and Long Qing on the speedboat.
At this time, the speedboat sailed into the open sea.
Xie Lingtian looked up at the blue sea, and at the end of the sea was an island hidden in the vast white mist.
The speedboat docked on the outskirts of an island somewhere, and Yu Ke and the others were already waiting for Xie Lingtian on the shore.
"These barren islands in the open seas are often inhabited by isolated cultivators whose identities are mysterious and who rarely communicate with outsiders. However, there are also people who flee here like Sapang to avoid the limelight. ”
Xie Lingtian was a little surprised when he heard that there were still cultivators cultivating here, but it was understandable when he thought about it.
After all, cultivators who have a certain pursuit of cultivation will choose to retreat and practice penance in such a place.
Yu Ke continued to solemnly admonish Xie Lingtian, "So, apart from Sha Pang, if we see other cultivators, let's take a detour, don't act rashly, lest we violate their taboos." ”
After speaking, Yu Ke led the people to take the lead and quickly marched towards the island.
The vegetation on the island is very lush, and the green trees block most of the sunlight, and the whole island seems to be shrouded in a layer of fog, making it difficult to see the truth.
Xie Lingtian followed Yu Ke and the others to the southwest corner of the island for about ten minutes, and saw an empty field in front of him.
In the center of the field were scattered various wooden boxes, which looked relatively new and stained with blood, but there was nothing inside.
However, there were no bodies on the ground, only discarded guns and a few ordinary knives and guns.
Apparently, not so long ago, there were battles here.
Yu Ke raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and ordered his men to probe around.
He said to Xie Lingtian: "Last week, our people found that several groups of mercenaries were operating on the island, and discovered Sha Pang's whereabouts, but the other party was very cunning, and we were short of manpower at that time, so we did not attack the island for the time being. ”
"Manager Yu, by now, you can finally tell me, what is the treasure map of the Taiyin Gate?" Xie Lingtian stopped and asked in a deep voice.
Yu Ke chuckled lightly and said, "Mr. Xie doesn't have to worry about this, as long as we get those clues from Sha Pang, I will naturally inform you of the next plan." ”
He paused, glanced at the black bag on Xie Lingtian's back, and continued: "I'm curious, what is the purpose of the bones that Mr. Xie snatched from Vajarman? ”
Xie Lingtian glanced at Yu Ke indifferently and did not speak.
Seeing this, the moment Yu Ke turned around, a sneering smile flashed in his eyes.
He didn't get angry, but squatted down and picked up the bullet on the ground, observed the formation, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xie, we still have to catch Shapang as soon as possible, so as not to make a mistake when the people of Si Saiwa come to the door and make a mistake." ”
Although his tone was polite, there was a taste of resentment in it.
"Don't worry, there will be no delay." Xie Lingtian said.
Yu Ke nodded, threw away the bullet in his hand, and got up to gather everyone.
After learning that no useful information was found, he continued on his way.
Under the command of Yu Ke, a group of people divided into five groups, fifty meters apart, scattered all the way to search.
It wasn't until I walked up a hill that I saw a mercenary patrolling on a mountain platform in the distance.
Yu Ke immediately ordered everyone to hide.
"Are these mercenaries all from Shapan?" Xie Lingtian asked.
"That's right." Yu Ke nodded, "These are Sha Pang's most trusted subordinates, and their strength is not weak, he seems to have obtained new clues, and the purpose is also to get the treasure." ”
When Xie Lingtian heard this, his gaze swept into the distance, his eyes gradually became dark, and he was also thinking about the pros and cons in his heart.
For him, the bones were in his hands, and the purpose of the trip to France had been achieved.
The task of killing Sha Pang has become a frustration, and his current strength has fluctuated, and the light of the Black Underworld cannot withstand the consumption.
Therefore, even if Bantu will give him more benefits, there is no need for him to work hard for Yu Ke.
However, the scene still has to be done.
"When will you do it?" Xie Lingtian asked positively.
"Wait for my informant." Yu Ke replied, and then ordered a few team members to go around the back of the mountain and lay in ambush.
Not long after, Xie Lingtian saw one of Yu Ke's subordinates chanting a spell, and saw a black snake coming out of the sand in front of him.
The black snake quickly crawled towards the opposite hillside, and within moments it was hidden in the grass.
However, the black snake's vision appeared on a tablet held by Yu Ke, and marked the location and appearance characteristics of the enemies it saw one by one.
All of a sudden, the situation on the mountain was clearly grasped.
"Action!"
Yu Ke immediately distributed the information on the mountain to the team leaders, and asked them to quietly go up the mountain by relying on the blind spot.
Soon, the Black Snake locked his eyes on a cave at the top of the mountain.
"The cave has a defensive formation, the black snake can't get close, we need to lure him out."
Yu Ke was talking, and suddenly the screen 'banged', and the picture flashed and turned white.
Several people looked up in surprise and saw a man with a trident scanning the surroundings.
On the trident was the corpse of the black snake.
"Oops, found out."
As Yu Ke was speaking, the man holding the trident suddenly pointed towards the lower right of Xie Lingtian and the others.
A brilliant bolt of light erupted from the trident and slammed into a rock.
"Boom!" The stone crumbled, and flew with several members of the team who had hit the stone and were hiding behind it.
"There is an enemy invasion!" Rapid sirens and shouts suddenly poured in from all directions, and bursts of gunfire rang out.
"Do it!" Yu Ke's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered.
