Volume 4: Snake Island Horror Chapter 009 Action
With doubts, I couldn't help but ask a question: "Team Wang, Director Huang, since this storm horn is so terrifying, why do these gangsters want to enter here?" Are they really so desperate for money? β
At this point, everyone was silent.
This is a very obvious truth, since ancient times, there are those who seek wealth and danger, and there are those who take risks, but there are very few people who really want money and do not want to die. So the question is, what are these outlaws going to this forbidden place of death for?
I can't help but think of a possibility -
"Could they be here for the submarine tomb?"
Director Huang sighed, "Lao Wang, this situation is really rare, it seems that this situation has rarely happened before, even if someone enters the Storm Corner, at most, it is just to escape the pursuit, and they have not taken the initiative to go in." β
Lao Wang's brows tightened, "It's really abnormal. β
At this time, Wang Mengyao suddenly said: "No, this is the second time this year, do you remember, a few months ago, there was also a group of unknown people who went in, but they didn't stay long last time, and they ran away by themselves without waiting for us to catch them." β
Wang Mengyao's words once again aroused everyone's vigilance.
"Xiao Wang is right, once is an accident, and twice it can't be an accident again." Lao Wang said, "Lao Huang, it is necessary to report this matter to the higher authorities immediately, on the one hand, ask them to send reinforcements over, on the other hand, we must find a way to trap this group of people on the island, and we must not let them slip away again!" β
Director Huang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll report to my superiors immediately." β
Subsequently, Lao Wang also began to give orders, saying: "Comrades, the situation is clear to everyone, there is a group of people who have entered the corner of the storm, and the purpose is not simple, and now we are not manpowered, we can't fight hard, we can only outwit." Next, I ordered five soldiers of our militia squad to go to the periphery of Cape Storm to set up control, and once they found a suspicious person coming out, they would be arrested immediately. Other staff members of the base, in groups of five, are on duty at fixed monitoring points, and the remaining 5 soldiers, in addition to two who are responsible for guarding the door, form a patrol group to patrol continuously between monitoring points, and deal with it immediately if there is a situation! Did the rest of the people, who stayed at the headquarters with me, understand? β
"Understood!" Everyone said in unison.
Wang Mengyao stayed at the headquarters, I must be relieved, there is danger everywhere on the island now, but at least the base is safe.
So, I stood up again, "Team Wang, let me go too, 5 people are too few, there are more than 20 people on the other side, the enemy is outnumbered, it's too dangerous." β
"Li Ruiβ" Wang Mengyao wanted to stop me.
Lao Wang was a little surprised, looked into my eyes, and said: "Li Rui, you have this heart, this is very good, but you are not from the island after all, it is too dangerous to go to Cape Storm, you better stay in the headquarters." β
"Team Wang, I appreciate your kindness, but I'm a big man, when I'm in danger, if I only know how to hide in the headquarters, is it still a man?" I looked at Wang Mengyao and said with a relaxed smile: "Just give me a chance for personal heroism, I can guarantee that I will never take risks, we will ambush on the periphery of Cape Storm." β
Hearing me say this, the people present may have seen something, and they all looked at Wang Mengyao, who had already buried her head in the ground. Lao Wang thought about it for a while, nodded, and said, "Okay, since you take the initiative to ask for help, then I will give you this opportunity." β
As he spoke, he took a pistol from his waist, placed it on the table, and asked, "Will it be?" β
I smiled, "No. β
"You may be good at dancing knives and guns, but you are a layman when you shoot guns, but fighting with gangsters and relying on fists and feet is a loss, take it, I hope you can't use it!"
I hesitated, but in order for Wang Mengyao to be reassured, I still took it, "Thank you." β
Wang Mengyao walked up to me nervously, "Li Rui, you have to think about it, I don't want you to be manly in front of me......"
I stroked her hair and smiled, "You think I'm stupid, of course it's fate." However, I also want to really experience the environment you are in, so that I can understand you better. Don't worry, I'll take care of myself. β
Wang Mengyao nodded, "Then you must come back alive and intact!" β
"Well, I will."
At this time, Lao Wang spoke, "Okay, you two don't talk to me and me anymore, Ma Wei, Ma Meng, you two call three people, go with him!" β
Ma Wei Ma Meng looked like two brothers, generally tall, black and thin. They looked at me in admiration and said, "Yes! β
"Remember, he's the captain of your squad now, and he's up to him in everything, but you're going to keep him safe no matter what, understand?"
"Understood!"
"Let's go!"
After a simple assembly in the small courtyard at the gate, I took five militiamen and set out on the journey to Cape Storm.
In fact, I was quite in a trance, I, a tourist who came from thousands of miles away, would take the initiative to help the people on the island catch thieves, is this still the same me at the beginning?
"Oh, the magic of love is great." I laughed at myself in my heart, but as soon as my heart turned, I focused my attention on the submarine tomb in Lao Qi's mouth.
At the end of the day, that's what I'm really here for.
"Meng Xing, what are you hiding? It's been more than a thousand years, and you're still tormenting us poor people. I said inwardly.
"Li Rui, you are a real man!"
At this time, the mighty brothers in the team began to chatter, "We were in the office just now, and I heard it with enthusiasm. β
"Hey, what's so exciting about this, in fact, my heart is also up and down." I laughed.
"Don't be modest, even our captain Lao Wang admires you, which shows that you are a real man!" Ma Wei said with a smile, "You don't know, before Lao Wang retired from the army, he was an old squad leader for more than ten years, a third-class professional household, and he was angry when he saw anyone." β
"Hahaha, yes, I can't see it, Lao Wang is still a soldier king."
We chattered for about half an hour before the ground beneath our feet began to get muddy.
"Li Rui, you can't go any further, there is Storm Point ahead."
I nodded, and although I don't know how to march and fight, the experience of these years of fighting has taught me that this place is indeed very dangerous.
And my professional instinct prompted me to observe the topography first, and I looked around, "This place is black, the mud is deep, and the wind is gusting, and this is a place of great evil." β
"Ma Wei, where do you usually go and don't go in anymore?" I asked.
Ma Wei and the others had already put on their gas masks, and their voices were not very clear, "It'sβthisβinsideβ"
I nodded, indeed, further on, there was not even a place to put your feet, "It's strange, this kind of place, even animals don't dare to come in, why did those guys choose here." β
"Who's to say it isn't." Ma Wei nodded vigorously, "And this Storm Horn is a dead land, once the exit is blocked, they can't escape!" β
This further strengthened the doubts in my heart, "These people have a clear purpose, they don't look like people who will put themselves to death, could it be-"
"Ma Wei, are you sure there is no other exit here?" I asked, turning my head.
Ma Wei stared at me from inside the gas mask and wondered, "No, this storm horn protrudes into the sea, and there is sea on three sides, and only this gourd mouth can enter." β
"The sea?" Again, my mind was hooked by the submarine tomb, "Could it be that they dived?" β
"But why go ashore when it's diving?" I quickly dismissed my own speculation, but then a more probable one came to mind, "Could it be that the entrance to the submarine tomb is at Cape Storm, and the exit is at sea?" β
"If that's the case, then there's no point in us waiting here at all, because this group of people won't come back." My heart tightened.
When I looked up, the sky was already slightly shining, "What time is it?" I asked.
Ma Wei looked at his watch and replied, "It's almost four o'clock." β
"Will there be high tide here?"
Ma Meng replied: "Yes, the tide usually rises around five o'clock, and it does not recede until about seven o'clock in the morning, and when the tide rises, our place will also be flooded." β
"It's weird, it's weird." I shook my head repeatedly, "Their behavior is so abnormal, it seems that they are deliberately using the tide to cover up their footprints." β
"Li Rui, what do you mean by that?" Ma Wei asked.
"I think they may have another motive for going to the island, and it is not as simple as catching snakes."
Ma Weima looked at each other fiercely, "Not a snake catcher?" What's that for? β
"I can't think of anything now, but judging by their behavior now, this series of unusual actions is clearly not in line with the regular behavior of snake catchers."
"Ma Meng, I think Li Rui's analysis is reasonable, it is indeed quite abnormal, it is the first time I have encountered this situation for so many years." Ma Wei said.
"But now it's all speculation, and there's no evidence." Ma Meng said, "Besides, in this situation, we don't dare to act rashly." β
At this point, I stood up and said, "I have an idea. β
"You say." Everyone looked at me.
"While there are still footprints to be found on the ground, I plan to go in alone and secretly follow this group, you guys, continue to monitor here."
When Ma Wei heard this, he immediately decided: "No, this is too risky, I can't let you go alone, if you want to go, I will go!" β
"Yes, Li Rui, this is too dangerous."
"It's too late, time is running out, and once the tide rises, the footprints will never be found again." I hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I cherish my life more than you, and I won't mess around, I just follow the footprints to see what they are for, and I will definitely keep a distance from them and not let them find out." If anything, I'll contact you on the walkie-talkie. β
"But ......"
I immediately interrupted, "Okay, without further ado, we can't hesitate any longer." Lao Wang has authorized me to take charge of this operation, and you all have to obey orders! β
"This ......"
Seeing that these people were frightened, I hurriedly gave orders, "Now I order, Ma Wei is responsible for monitoring this place, and no one can enter the Cape of Storm without my order." β
