128 Trails
After such two incidents, coupled with He Wenliang's tragic death, everyone's mood fell to a low point, and after returning to country K, they didn't speak for a few days but were in their own dormitory, and they could only see people when they were eating.
However, Lu Shen doesn't have anything to do with this, these are pampered in the heavenly capital, they can't be scolded, where have they seen life and death.
And when they were on a mission before, they only thought that they would deal with people, and at most they were mutated creatures, and they didn't expect to encounter giant beasts.
But he is different, he goes to the battlefield almost every day, whether it is the special forces in peace or in the last days, he is rubbing shoulders with death every day, he has long been used to seeing life and death, and he treats these things as inappropriate, so he should eat and drink, and in the eyes of these people, he is like an emotionless animal.
Only Huang Taisheng sometimes came over to find Lu Shen and come over to talk a few words.
As for the news of He Wenliang's death, it soon spread to China, but to say that the prime minister of country K is also very good, when he learned that He Wenliang died in country K, he held a larger funeral, although there was no body of He Wenliang, but he also put He Wenliang's previous things in the coffin, and made a "clothed mound".
Huaxia regards He Wenliang as a martyr, and the treatment he gives to his family is not bad.
--------------------
A few days later, Huang Taisheng summoned the remaining four people to a meeting, and the topic of the meeting was what to do next.
To say that it is the people of a great country, several people decided to start anew, and for their own lives, the interests of the motherland are above all else.
At the meeting, Lu Shen didn't speak much, but when the meeting was at the end, something happened that Lu Shen didn't expect, that is, Huang Taisheng looked at him, his eyes were full of complex emotions, he wanted to speak several times, and finally as if he had finally made up his mind, he slowly spoke: "Brother Lu, I decided that you will lead the small team in the future." ”
"What?"
Lu Shen looked surprised, he never thought about being this so-called captain in the past, how could it become his own business in the end, and the most important thing is that the other people just glanced at each other and had no intention of objecting, which made Lu Shen even more surprised, but more is better than less, Lu Shen shook his head, and a smile appeared on his face: "I'm afraid it's not good, besides, this is abroad, I can't even understand a few words, how to be this captain?" ”
"Lao Huang said so, don't shirk it, and besides, your leader is only leading a few of us, you don't have to deal with other people, if you just have a language barrier, then a few of us can be your translators......" Li Wenwen said, glanced at several other people, and then several other people also nodded and agreed with this idea.
"In that case, then I might as well be respectful."
When Lu Shen took over this burden, he obviously saw that Huang Taisheng breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a relaxed expression on his face.
Lu Shen understood what Huang Taisheng meant, these days Huang Taisheng came to talk to him from time to time, and what he said was nothing else, anyway, the overall meaning was that he felt that He Wenliang's death was because he did not lead the team well and took all the responsibility on himself.
Mrs. Huang was teary-eyed, she looked like she was several years old, a little pitiful, but Lu Shen still didn't like this kind of person very much, after all, he thought that this matter was just He Wenliang's own death, and it had nothing to do with anyone else.
"In that case, let's get ready to go."
After speaking, Lu Shen turned around and left.
--------------------
Three months later.
On the vast sea, a small dark green cruise ship floats aimlessly on the sea.
The five people in the cabin had long since lost the spirit they had when they first set off, and everyone's faces were full of the word tired.
Li Wenwen is okay, as a woman, at least she will take care of it, but these men are different, they stay at sea for ten days and half a month, and the longest one is more than 20 days directly, almost once a week to wash their faces, and I don't know what the reason is, the ultraviolet rays here are surprisingly large, everyone has been sunburned several times, and there are different degrees of red bloodshot on their faces, plus the skin has been tanned several degrees, it looks like a native on the plateau.
I have been at sea for too long, and almost every meal is seafood, so that now a few people are full of seafood when they talk with one mouth, and they can't be disliked by others, or they are disgusted by themselves.
At this moment, Li Wenwen on the side finally couldn't help it, and began to shout frantically, and smashed things while running around.
After seeing this, several other people also silently withdrew from the cabin, this is not the first time Li Wenwen has this situation, usually she shouts first and then makes trouble, and finally sits on the ground and cries, and then returns to normal, calms down for a few days, and then starts again.
Lu Shen knew that this was Li Wenwen's imminent collapse, and if he couldn't find the mecha again, then needless to say Li Wenwen, he was afraid that the rest of the few others would also collapse.
A few minutes later, Li Wenwen's sobs appeared in the cabin, from large to small for a total of two minutes.
Lu Shen looked at his watch, thinking that this time things had become shorter, and if it was shorter, he was afraid that something would go wrong.
In the cabin, Li Wenwen sobbed and said, "...... early I knew it earlier...... If that's the result, I say..... Nothing will come ......"
Wang Ziwen and Zhao Tianming glanced at each other and walked into the cabin with a tacit understanding, and started their "old business", during this period of time, Li Wenwen was so noisy, it was a few of them who went to coax, and in the end, Lu Shen felt a little annoyed and stopped going, and Huang Taisheng seemed to be too, so this burden fell on the two of them.
Lu Shen looked at the fishing rod in his hand for a long time and sighed, Lu Shen turned around and came to the side of the instrument, but after looking at it for a long time, the instrument also did not change at all.
The last cigarette left in the cigarette box, Lu Shen took out the fire and lit it, and after a few puffs, Huang Taisheng walked over, looked at Lu Shen's depressed expression, and said with a wry smile: "What's the matter, hasn't it changed?" ”
"Hmm......" exhaling a puff of white smoke, Lu Shen nodded, and then walked to the edge of the fishing rod.
Huang Taisheng walked towards the instrument, but within a few seconds, he suddenly let out a scream of surprise, and Lu Shenleng, who was scared, was stunned for a few seconds, and then looked back at Huang Taisheng speechlessly: "What the hell is your name?" ”
"It's not...... It's the instrument that is moving, come and see! Looking at the expression on Huang Taisheng's face, Lu Shen walked over in disbelief, mainly not because he didn't believe in Huang Taisheng, but that this machine had changed before, at first they thought they had found it, but after a few seconds, the instrument returned to normal, just like it was just a joke between the instrument and them.
However, when he walked over this time, the changes on the instrument made his eyes light up, and his body was instantly stunned in place, and only after a few seconds did he react, and he lay on the instrument excitedly, staring at the changes on the instrument with his eyes.
The red straight line on the screen of the instrument had flattened out after a few small fluctuations, but within a few seconds it suddenly raised its head in a straight line of almost ninety degrees, which they had never encountered before.
Since then, the red line has remained parallel.
Seeing this, the two of them already had some bottom in their hearts, but they still didn't dare to tell the other three directly, afraid that this would be another accident, and they were afraid that the three of them would become what Li Wenwen is now.
A few minutes passed, and their boat traveled almost 100 meters away from the place where the instrument had changed just now, and the red line on the instrument slowly decayed, and the two looked at each other, and then slowly turned the boat around.
It's been more than four months since they set off, and they've been traveling around various countries for four months, going to more than half of the world's seas, but they haven't found any clues about the mecha, and this time even if it's a problem with the instrument, they have to drive the ship back to find out.
Sure enough, on the way back after the ship turned around, the two found that the red line on the instrument had begun to rise again, a change that made the two almost believe that the mecha was under this sea area.
Then the two called the other three people out, at this time Li Wenwen had already eased from the collapsed mood, but her face was still with tears, and her eyes were bloodshot, and the three of them hurriedly surrounded them after seeing the changes in the instrument, Lu Shen knew that this was the time when he should make a move, if he didn't say anything at this time, he was afraid that their emotions would be unstable, and these words were undoubtedly a bet for everyone.
"We can already confirm that the body of the mecha is under this sea area, so Li Wenwen, you go and record the current location, Zhao Tianming will notify Huaxia, and Wang Ziwen will notify the current country, right...... Now we are in that country? ”
Wang Ziwen thought for a while and said, "Z country." ”
Then the three of them started to act, and the task for such a long time has been without progress, which is a blow to everyone, even Lu Shen is no exception, so Lu Shen's will is a little depressed, and he has forgotten which country he is in now.
After everyone else left, Lu Shen smiled bitterly.
"Are you so sure it's not the instrument that's wrong?" Huang Taisheng on the side looked at Lu Shen's face with a trace of bitterness, but Lu Shen shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I only know that if I don't say so, their emotions may collapse at any time." ”
"But if it's not true this time, then they will also collapse, and you have to know that giving a glimmer of hope and then letting that glimmer of hope be shattered, which is more desperate than having no hope in the first place."
"There's no way, we can't keep them on the verge of collapse, and if it's not this time, then I'll collapse with them."
"Pull it down......"
A few minutes later, several people walked out of the cabin, and the expressions on their faces were obviously a little excited at this time, and Lu Shen was also relieved to see this.
"Mission accomplished!"
Several people said in unison.
"I remember there were a couple of wetsuits in the cabin, you guys found out, I needed to dive out into the sea to have a look."
Hearing Lu Shen's words, several other people hurriedly went to find a diving suit, the diving suit on the ship was specially developed in the first two months of Huaxia, even people who can't dive can dive to a certain depth wearing this equipment, and they also picked out a few days to practice diving a month ago.
A few minutes later, Wang Ziwen and Zhao Tianming found two black suitcases from the cabin, and when they opened them, they saw two sets of black diving suits.
Lu Shen returned to the instrument and took the stone off, and then the diving suit on the boat loaded the stone and tied it to his waist, so that when he went down, he could tell how far they were from the mecha from the glow of the stone.
As soon as he turned his head, Lu Shen saw that Huang Taisheng had also put on a diving suit, and looked at him with some confusion: "Why are you wearing it too?" ”
"I'm worried that you'll be in danger if you go down alone, so I'm with you."
Lu Shen was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and didn't say anything more.
After preparing, the two of them leaned back and went directly into the water, and after a while, there was no trace of the two people.
Down to a distance of about five meters, the sunlight has been unable to penetrate the seawater, look down is a dark, the two people have a tacit understanding to turn on the light, so there is a trace of light in this dark environment, Lu Shen looked down, and found that the stone is still this brightness, and there is not much change, so the two of them dived down a few meters, I don't know if it is because the surrounding environment is too dark, or the distance is really pulled in, anyway, finally the brightness of the stone has changed a little.
The two of them kept a distance of about two meters, which could help each other see if there was any danger around them, and at the same time, they could react quickly.
After about two meters, they reached the bottom of this area, and the two of them walked slowly forward, and there were more fish around them.
After a few minutes, Lu Shen suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the flow of water around him, so he made a stop movement, Huang Taisheng also stopped immediately after seeing it, and then made a few gestures, although he didn't understand it very well, but Lu Shen could still roughly guess what he meant.
Lu Shen pointed to the position of about one meter in front, and then came to Huang Taisheng's side and pulled him forward slowly, and waited until about a distance, after the beam above his head hit down, he saw that a ravine appeared in front of him, which was bottomless, and the position on the opposite bank could not be seen at all, it stands to reason that this should be a cliff.
After looking at the water pressure, the two of them could no longer go down, this depth was the last depth for them, and if they went down further, it was very likely that they would not be able to go up.
Thinking of this, Lu Shen prepared to go up.
Unexpectedly, Huang Taisheng suddenly grabbed Lu Shen at this time, and then pointed to the stone tied to Lu Shen's waist, at this time the stone Lu Shen had not paid attention to it for a long time, and when he looked down, he saw that the brightness of the stone had increased by several degrees, and it seemed that the body of the "deep sea" should almost be under this cliff.
Just when the two of them were about to go up, Lu Shen suddenly felt as if something was moving around his waist, looked down, and didn't know that a few palm-sized fish were biting the bag tied to the stone, Lu Shen didn't have time to catch up, he saw a big hole in the bag, and the stone fell out of the hole in an instant, and then fell down the cliff at a very fast speed.
"Forget it, let's go up first......" Lu Shen thought to himself, after all, now that he knew the general location of the mecha, even if there was no stone at that time, he could quickly find the mecha.
After the location was sent back to Huaxia, everyone stayed in this sea area, not planning to go anywhere, and always planned to wait for Huaxia's people to come.
Only then do they feel safe.
Luckily, there was enough food on board for them for a few days, and as long as they saved some food, they could get some from the sea even if they didn't have food.
A week later......
