As the commander of this operation, Chu Yang felt a lot of pressure, because not only were three foreign experts dead and two missing, the soldiers who participated in the operation also suffered heavy casualties, and there were also missing persons.
The casualties of foreign experts are caused by themselves. Even if the impact is very bad, it is a problem of the superiors. There will be dedicated people responsible for arguing with foreign countries. The soldiers who participated in the operation can be regarded as sacrifices for the country and can be regarded as martyrs.
There will be generous pensions.
However, Li Qingyun, the temporary "snake doctor" on loan, is a supernumerary, a strong man recruited by the military. If it were someone else, he could have explained it and compensated according to normal procedures, but he was his father's savior, and the old man had not yet
He formally thanked others, but followed him to participate in the mission, and his life and death were unknown.
Although there were heavy casualties in this operation, the bowl-sized meteorite was obtained. However, as the commander, he must write a report to explain to the superiors the reason for the heavy casualties.
He sighed. He thought he was well prepared and knew the danger from the survivors last time. But no one could have imagined that the wine cellar was so big and that there was a giant python in it. Although he threw it with a grenade bag in the end
It entered the mouth of the giant python and killed it, but the casualties caused were inseparable from it.
All the bodies in the wine cellar have been pulled out, but there are still hundreds of venomous snakes inside, making it impossible to leave for the time being. No one dares to go inside to explore things other than the wine jars.
"Sir, we found a deep well-like cave on the path to the side entrance of the Taoist temple. Judging from the traces, it seems to have been formed recently. The grass and vines covering it have broken marks. I am not sure if someone fell in." A soldier.
Run over and report the search results to Chu Yang.
"Take me there and have a look." Chu Yang said, and he and his soldiers walked to the path to the side door, and saw an irregular sunken cave in the middle of the path, like a huge well, with one or two missing holes.
About square meters.
I used a searchlight to shine down. It was bottomless. Since I didn't know how big it was down there, I didn't dare to throw stones to test the echo.
"Leave two people here to watch. I'm going to apply for professional equipment and prepare to go out to search." Chu Yang confessed and led the people back to the camp.
Foreign experts are making trouble in a sad atmosphere, saying that two of their partners are missing. If they were not swallowed by pythons, they are hiding in a corner and let the Chinese military expand the search scope. They want to see people alive or dead.
corpse.
Chu Yang couldn't help these foreign experts, so he comforted them and said that he would make a report and apply to his superiors. On the surface, he seemed helpless, but it was exactly what he wanted. No matter what, he had to find the whereabouts of Li Qingyun and give them to him.
I gave an explanation to my father, and I also gave an explanation to myself.
Li Qingyun didn't know that people outside were preparing to search for his whereabouts, but even if he knew, he wouldn't be happy because the living environment here is really bad.
When Michelle was resting in the cave, he had already explored the stone wall. The traces excavated by Taoist Lingxu were still about a hundred meters away from the crack on the cave roof, and he could no longer continue because the stone wall was too steep and perpendicular to the ground.
Even further up, the negative angle phenomenon will reappear.
With his physical strength and ability, it is already very difficult to climb up here, and he will not be able to dig a new climbing point further up. In fact, if you think about it carefully, with his abnormal ability, even if he can dig, Michelle will not be able to climb.
Negative angle of cliff.
Except for two or three hours at noon, the platform where the wooden house is located is completely dark. In other parts of the cave, small patches of sunlight occasionally shine in, but most of the places are in darkness just like the platform.
At noon the next day, Michelle's body returned to normal. Although her strength was weaker, she was still able to do some work within her power. She cleaned the small cave. Except for Taoist Lingxu's skeleton, which was not moved, other places looked brand new.
Li Qingyun couldn't just sit there and take advantage of the sunshine, so he took Hai Dongqing with him and said he was going down the mountain to hunt.
Michelle was extremely worried, but she couldn't find any reason not to let Li Qingyun go down, because she knew that if she wanted to survive, she really had to rely on Li Qingyun's hunting skills. But when she thought that there was a group of jackals waiting for them at the bottom of the mountain, she suddenly felt worried.
, gave Li Qingyun a few words of concern and watched him go down the mountain.
This hillside was too steep, and going down was more difficult than going up. Fortunately, Li Qingyun's arm strength was amazing, and his whole body coordination was also very strong. He was able to retreat backwards and move down layer by layer.
Even if Hai Dongqing was usually lazy, he had to clear the obstacles on the road for his master at this time. Several poisonous snakes near the groove were all caught by him and thrown to the ground.
After Li Qingyun went down, he used branches to gather the dead snakes into a pile, and then packed them up and took them away when he was going back. After all, this was also a pile of food.
He took the seven-shot gun in his hand, thought for a while, and took out a hatchet from the small space. If he encountered an ordinary danger, he would just use the knife to chop, which would be considered as a physical exercise.
The two jackals killed yesterday have long since disappeared. I don't know if they were taken away by the jackal king or eaten by other animals.
This should be the busiest time in the cave forest. Although it is dangerous, it is also the best time for hunting.
I had good luck today. I walked for a while and went around to the dark river, but I didn't see any ferocious jackals. There were splashes of water in the river, and fish came out of the water to bask in the sun.
Three or four giant salamanders actually climbed onto the boulders by the river and were screaming "wow". One was really big, more than one meter long. It was lying on the rock, like a lizard. It looked a bit scary, with rock-like markings on its back.
It has limbs and a tail, and its head is chubby, giving it a meaty feel.
This is the giant salamander. It is also called pike or fish dog in some places. Although it has the word fish, it is actually an amphibian. It is currently extremely rare and is listed as a second-level protected animal by the country because its meat is extremely delicious and has extremely high nutritional value.
, known as "water ginseng", some people risk all kinds of risks and can't bear their appetite.
Li Qingyun is such a person. If no one is watching, he will never miss something like a giant salamander. Half of the reason why he went down the mountain today was to catch a few giant salamanders.
This kind of thing is rarely seen around their town. Even if you go into the mountains, it depends on your luck. But in this underground cave, the cry of giant salamanders is often heard, which shows that there are a lot of them. He not only wants to
I want to catch more of them and keep them in a small space.
Since there were no outsiders here, Li Qingyun did not use a net or a harpoon, but directly used the power of the small space to take in the four giant salamanders at once and throw them into the small pond in the space.
Hai Dongqing suddenly screamed and rushed towards the branch above Li Qingyun's head. A vigorous clouded leopard jumped down from behind the branch with a "ouch" and angrily avoided Hai Dongqing's blow.
Li Qingyun was startled. He didn't expect that there was such a carnivorous guy hiding next to him. Although he only weighed thirty or forty pounds, if he was caught by it, he would definitely not be safe.
He raised his gun but did not shoot. He recognized the clouded leopard. It was small in size and beautiful in appearance, like a big cat. It did not have much offensive power against him.
The clouded leopard did not dare to continue the attack, and roared unwillingly, and fled into the dense forest. Because Hai Dongqing's wings spread out for more than one meter, which was longer than its body, and the fierce momentum pounced from the sky, it was really not something it could resist.
of.
Hai Dongqing proudly circled in the sky and chirped a few times, but did not really pursue it.
Li Qingyun continued to search for the giant salamanders in the cracks of the rocks along the underground river. The skin color of these fish was similar to the color of the rocks. If you have poor eyesight, it would be difficult to spot them.
Sometimes Li Qingyun would use the power of a small space to cover the rocks by the river, regardless of whether he saw it or not, and collect all the small things around the rocks into the small space. The harvest was not small, not only did he collect a lot of giant salamanders, but he also collected a lot of them.
A crab with a dark back shell.
These crabs didn't look big, they were dry, and their whole body was black. They didn't feel like they were chewy, and their claws were hairy. I caught a lot of them, and ignored them, and threw them all into a small pond in space, waiting.
Feed other pets later.
After walking along the river for a while, the river bank in front was relatively low, and I actually saw two large wild boars drinking water with a litter of piglets by the river. These two big guys, if killed, can feed two people for several months.
of meat.
However, Li Qingyun had no intention of taking action. Even if he was crazy, he didn't want to provoke such a big guy weighing eight or nine hundred kilograms.
Still a few hundred meters away from them, the big boar turned its head warily, squinted its eyes, and grunted a few times, as if to warn Li Qingyun.
Fortunately, wild boars will not attack if you don't provoke them. If they feel threatened by you, their crazy energy will be absolutely terrifying. Even the black bears in the forest will not dare to provoke them.
Li Qingyun estimated the weight of these pigs and found that it was better not to use the power of the small space to avoid exhaustion and being taken advantage of by other beasts. Moreover, his current small space was still too small, and all the precious Chinese medicines and things he liked were grown in it.
Fruit trees and tea trees, if wild boars are installed, will definitely destroy the entire small space and make it impossible to see.
Just as they were about to take a detour, two large wild boars left with their little piglets, leaving behind a cloud of dust and smoke.
A group of Sichuan black goats, about sixty or seventy in number, appeared at the water's edge following the departure point of the wild boars, looking around vigilantly. They were all pure black, and even their horns seemed to be black, like animals in the dark.
Elf, mysterious and deep.
This group of wild black goats are larger than those seen outside, and their hair is longer. The hair is black and shiny, and under direct sunlight, it is as smooth and shiny as satin.
The adult black goats outside are about 50 or 60 centimeters tall, but the wild goats here originate from unknown breeds. They are 80 to 90 centimeters tall. They are extremely strong, with sharp and long horns on their heads that point upward.
It's forward, very suitable for attacking.
Good guy, this group of big guys is more terrifying than the group of wild boars just now and cannot be easily provoked. However, there are also some troublemakers, two grey-brown hungry wild wolves, quietly appearing behind the herd and attacking one.
The slightly smaller black goat pounced.
The black goat was not afraid. It turned around suddenly, lowered its head and bumped into the charging wild wolf. The wild goats all turned around, bleated, and bumped into the wolf angrily.
Two wild wolves, half as tall as a man, were instantly surrounded. Before they could find any food, their bellies were torn open by a few leading wild goats. Their intestines and internal organs flowed all over the ground, and they soon became silent.
