Chapter 253: Crushed
d returned two hours later, carrying several paper bags in her hands. 。Looking up, I saw men's clothing. It turned out that Xu Lingwei was in such a hurry to leave because she went shopping for clothe...As the team leader, Hao Zhanbing dared not make his own decisions about Tong Lei's stay or departure. He insisted that Tong Lei call her father.
Who would have thought that this elegant mayor was so open-minded, he even allowed Tong Lei to join them in the mountains, and specifically asked the heavens to protect her.
From taking the phone from her hand, Tong Lei proudly snorted: "How is it, I said my dad would agree, right!"
"We can go into the mountains, but I need to make something clear to you first," Xiang turned his head to look at Tong Lei, his face serious. "This isn't a trip for sightseeing, we might encounter danger. You must promise not to run around and listen to me in everything."
Tong Lei nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, I won't hold you back."
She patted the bulging backpack beside her and said with a smile, "Look, I've been a hiker before, my gear is very professional, you might not even compare to me."
He glanced up at the large bag, estimating it to be at least twenty kilograms. He couldn't help but ask, "Is that so Then what mountains have you climbed"
"Mount Yuntai, do you know Mount Yuntai It's so high, I hiked up with this big backpack on my back."
Xiang Tian's mouth twitched a few times and he stopped talking to her.
Half an hour later, the convoy drove through the fields for a while and stopped in front of a slope.
Getting out of the car, he pointed to the endless mountains stretching before them and asked Tong Lei, "Are you sure you want to carry your big backpack into that"
Tong Lei had never been to Taikongshan before. Looking at the magnificent mountain range in front of her, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
Compared to this, Yun Tai Mountain was simply a small hill. She suddenly felt that her decision to come up the mountain with Xiang Tian and the others might have been wrong.
But when she saw the playful expression on his face, she pouted and said, "Hmph, don't look down on people, just wait and see."
Since that was the case, he said nothing more to the sky. He slung his canvas bag over his shoulder, took a machete from Hao Zhanbing, and plunged headlong into the dense mountains.
Because the previous two groups had encountered problems, Hao Zhanbing was cautious and let two police dogs lead the way. The rest of the team followed closely behind, always remaining alert.
One hour passed quickly.
At first, Tong Lei was still holding a single-lens reflex camera and taking pictures non-stop. Later on, she walked slower and slower, her big backpack gradually lagging behind the rest of the group.
Facing the heavens, he shook his head in helpless amusement and walked up to Tong Lei, extending his hand.
Tong Lei smiled and took off her shoulder bag, handing it over. “Then you’ll have to work hard.”
After she finished speaking, she grabbed her DSLR and ran to the front of the line to take pictures. Tian was worried about her safety and quickly followed behind.
Along the way, these well-trained SWAT officers continually discovered traces left by the two groups ahead, indicating that their direction was correct.
But all around, besides the lush trees and weeds, there were only the calls of various birds. No matter how they called out, there was no response at all.
The first two groups, adding up to nearly fifty people, seemed to have vanished completely.
As they pressed deeper, the path grew increasingly difficult. Thorny bushes and weeds blocked their way, and occasionally they encountered brightly colored snakes. They even came face to face with two black wild boars.
Tong Lei was no longer as excited as she had been at first, especially after seeing the python, which was thicker than her thigh. She was so scared that she kept a safe distance from it, clinging to Xiang Tian's side. Every rustle of leaves or bird call from the depths of the forest would send shivers down her spine.
Later on, she grabbed Xiang Tian's arm decisively and didn't dare let go for a moment.
Three o'clock in the afternoon, they finally walked out of the mountain pass and came to a slope.
Looking up, the surface was rugged with sparse trees. Occasionally, pebbles rolled down from above, making it look extremely steep and dangerous.
Two police dogs suddenly had a discovery. They barked wildly at a spot on the hillside and struggled to get up there.
Could there be someone on the hillside
Everyone's spirits soared, and even Tong Lei, who was exhausted from the hard work, felt invigorated. She quickly scrambled up the hillside.
Although the slope was steep, luckily there were boulders to leverage against, and the group safely made it to the halfway point.
Behind a large rock, a pool of dark red blood was shockingly visible.
Hao Zhanbing was greatly startled. He dipped his finger in a bit of blood and smelled it under his nose.
"It's not human blood!"
Everyone's tense nerves instantly relaxed, and Tong Lei even sat down on the ground, taking out a small square handkerchief to wipe away her sweat constantly.
He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the peak, but there were still only stones on the mountain, nothing else.
After drinking some water and resting for a while, the group continued to climb upward. Half an hour later, they finally reached the summit.
Two police dogs moved again, and the crowd followed them to one side, where they found a pile of ashes on the ground.
The ash pile was cold, and there were many footprints nearby. It seemed that people who had entered the mountain ahead had camped here.
Just as the crowd was searching for more clues around them, Xiang Tian suddenly grabbed Hao Zhanbing's arm and whispered, "Someone is watching us."
Since cultivating the Yin Yang Art, Xiang Tian's sixth sense seemed to have been particularly enhanced. Facing danger, he would have a strong sense of perception.
Actually, just a short while ago, when they found the bloodstains on the hillside, he already had a feeling that someone was hiding in the shadows watching them. Here, this feeling was even stronger.
Tong Lei, who had been following him closely, was terrified and tightly clutched his arm, looking around in fear with a pale face.
Ha Zhanbing also whispered, "I have that feeling too, like it's on the mountain."
Hao Zhanbing was also a martial artist with extraordinary inner qi, so his perception was significantly stronger than that of ordinary people. Once someone focused on him, his body would naturally become alert.
Upon hearing this, Tong Lei became even more frightened. She hugged Xiangtian's arm tightly and her body trembled slightly.
After a while, Xiang Tian patted her hand: "Don't be nervous, that person has already left."
But Tong Lei still didn't dare to let go. He lowered his head and saw that his arm was pressing down on her chest, completely flattening one of her breasts. No wonder he always felt that the area around his elbow was soft and elastic.
However, when he saw Tong Lei's pale face, the romantic thoughts in his heart vanished. He smiled and sent a trace of True Dragon Qi into her body to help her stabilize her nervous emotions.
After a while, Tong Lei's face gradually regained its rosy complexion, and she became a little bolder. She whispered, "Who was that person Was it Xie Hongwei"
"Not like," he shook his head, "This person is very capable, it shouldn't be Xie Hongwei."
After searching the summit for a while, finding little, Hao Zhanbing decided to continue forward. However, since discovering someone was watching from the shadows, he ordered all special forces members to chamber their bullets and be ready to respond to any sudden situation.
Dàxíng Mountain was much bigger than Yúntái Mountain. Its mountains stretched endlessly, one after another. It could be said that if you were to look at it from afar, even a horse would die of exhaustion trying to reach the summit. They kept trekking deeper into the mountains until dusk approached. Just as the sky darkened, they finally managed to climb over two mountain peaks.
On a slightly open hillside, Hao Zhanbing decided to camp there.
The portable tent was set up, the campfire crackling merrily. As dusk settled in, an endless symphony of insects enveloped this humble campsite.
In the distance, a pair of eyes are watching this place.ward in a hurry. He raised his arms high and was about to hit Sally. 。Just then, a black shadow suddenly sprang out from behind Raman, rushing to Zheng Jun's side in an instant. 。Just as Zheng Jun's f...
