After eating and drinking, the two decided to continue walking.
If you're lucky, you can spend the night outside tonight, but if you really can't, find a place to rest for the night.
As for the choice of direction, all of Mei Qian's skills are useless in this situation, and he can only rely on luck - drawing lots.
He chose a flat stone, made a mark on one side, and threw it into the air.
If the mark is facing up, go upstream, and if it is facing down, go downstream.
Ning Chi began to think that this method was outrageous, but then he thought that luck was also a part of strength. What if it happened to him?
So the two of them packed up and walked upstream along the river bank.
During this section of the journey, there were no monster attacks that Ning Chi was worried about, nor was he forced to go into the water, nor did he encounter piranhas.
After about a few hours, Ning Chi still gave up and tried to persuade Mei Qian to go back as soon as possible.
One of the reasons for not being able to get out was also because he finally remembered that the two of them didn't have diving equipment. Even if the underground river led to the outside world, they didn't have enough oxygen to get out.
But Mei Qian still persisted, because with his super hearing, he could clearly hear subtle whimpering sounds.
That should be the sound of the wind.
So, it went smoothly, and the two of them found their way to the outside world. It was already early the next morning.
Why do you say it went smoothly? Because it was just a crack, and Mei Qian couldn't drill it out even with his bone-shrinking technique.
I looked carefully with a flashlight and found that it would probably take a few days to dig with a military shovel. Fortunately, I still had zha medicine in my bag. It might be faster if I use it.
But it was too late, so they chose a relatively dry place to rest.
Now that they had a solution, they both slept well.
After feeling full of energy the next day, Ning Chi took over the operation and spent three pieces of explosives before and after, finally blasting out a passage that could accommodate one person through.
In this way, 28 hours after going underground, the two of them saw the sunshine outside again.
After all, this place is not far from the lair of the group of mercenaries. Even if the entire army was almost wiped out when they went to the tomb, they didn't know if You Xiude had left. The opponent had many people and guns, and they were all well-trained. If they couldn't get close
, a master like Mei Qian can’t do anything about it.
Moreover, the blasting sound just now would be heard far away in such an open area, and it might be attacked by someone from a distance. They did not dare to delay at all, and left the place quickly without stopping after leaving the cave.
The direction chosen is the east. According to Ning Chi: "The altitude here is very high, and there are no roads built, so they don't drive very fast. Judging from the time and direction of our car ride, it should not be far from Xia Kingdom, heading east."
You're on the right track."
Fortunately, this place used to be an uninhabited area under the jurisdiction of the northern tribes of the Ahan Kingdom. It has not experienced war for a long time, so there is no need to worry about the terrain or roadsides.
Their speed was very fast, and they bypassed a mountain with a peak covered with ice and snow. The flat peak mountain that impressed Mei Qian was far behind.
At this time, the two of them slowed down a little. Ning Chi was so tired that he sat on the big rock and panted, but Mei Qian felt nothing.
But before he finished smoking a cigarette, Mei Qian suddenly put out the cigarette butt and frowned at the sky.
Although he couldn't see anything, with his super hearing, he still heard a slight buzzing sound. A bad feeling suddenly flashed through his heart.
"There seems to be a drone in the sky!" he said solemnly.
Ning Chi was startled when he heard this and quickly looked up, but found nothing.
However, he completely trusted Mei Qian's ears at this moment, and sighed: "Their drone must have a thermal imaging function, and we have been discovered." At this time, the drone appearing in the sky at this location will definitely not be
Enthusiasts are in control.
"You are not going to let us go, you want to take revenge!" Mei Qian put Ning Chi's backpack on her body, pulled him and continued on the road, laughing at herself: "You really wrote this about me.
The author of the novel is a master of tomb robberies, and even if the exit is sealed, he is sure that I will escape from the tomb soon."
After hearing his words, Ning Chi couldn't help but move his feet. He lowered his head and was silent for a long time before complaining in a very small voice: "The key is that you really did it."
Mei Qian's ears were so good that he naturally heard it. But this was not the time to care about it, so she could only glare at him angrily.
"Go there!" Ning Chi suddenly pulled Mei Qian and turned him in a different direction.
Soon, the two of them ran up the hillside. It had to be said that this place was backed by steep snow peaks and surrounded by rugged cliffs and rocks. It was indeed a favorable terrain for defending against attacks and launching gun battles.
"Is the drone still in the sky?" Ning Chi asked as he opened his backpack.
Mei Qian was following Ning Chi's instructions and trying his best to huddle up on the back of the cliff. After hearing the words and listening carefully for a while, he said, "Still here." He pointed to a general direction.
But Ning Chi took out a scope and put it on the rifle, then bent one leg.
Mei Qian thought he was going to shoot down the drone, but after taking aim for a long time, Ning Chi put down the gun again and began to sort out the magazines in the two backpacks.
"Flying too high, you can't hit it." Ning Chi said in a low voice.
Mei Qian nodded in understanding and took out his rifle. However, when he reached out to retrieve the magazine on the ground, he was blocked by the opponent's hand.
"There aren't many bullets, brother, you better not waste them." Ning Chi didn't give any face at this moment, his face was filled with disgust.
Mei Qian's expression was stagnant: "I have to keep some self-defense!"
"The bullets in the gun are enough for you. Remember, shoot at people." Ning Chi looked at him deeply and sighed.
Mei Qian opened her mouth. She really wanted to retort confidently, but she had to admit that what the other party said was very reasonable, so she could only watch as Ning Chi put the organized magazine into his coat pocket...
You Xiude arrived slower than expected. During the waiting period, Mei Qian did nothing but listened carefully to what was going on around him.
Unfortunately, he could only hear the mountain wind blowing the gravel bushes. For a long time, there was no sound of footsteps or conversations in his ears. Later, even the drones in the sky stopped moving.
He told Ning Chi about the situation, and the latter's expression suddenly became tense: "They are coming." As he said that, he picked up the branches of the bushes nearby and slowly used his headlight to find out the big rock where he was hiding.
Mei Qian couldn't help but begin to admire You Xiude and his group for being cautious enough in dealing with the two of them.
He originally thought that You Xiude would make a speech first to persuade them to surrender or explain that he wanted to avenge Yun Yun. Unfortunately, he planned to pretend to surrender and then capture the king behind him! Who knew that the other party did not respect martial ethics and did not give them a chance?
, and fire instantly.
Ning Chi's branch had just reached halfway when it was hit by random gunfire, and the headlight on it was shattered into pieces.
"There should be no snipers." Ning Chi let out a long breath, then turned around suddenly and fired several bursts at the bottom of the hillside.
Although Mei Qian didn't look around, he could clearly hear a howl not far away.
Awesome, he admired in his heart, and couldn't help but look at his assistant with admiration...
