Chapter 706 But We Can't Get There

Hearing Ding Hengzhi's almost collapsed voice, Li Qingyun almost burst into laughter, but Tao Datan could only sigh helplessly. ↗,

How long have you been, and you are still in a fighting mood? There are densely packed vampire bats around you. If Shangguan Zheng, a spiritual cultivator of the Third Realm, were not present, they would have been unable to hold on with their martial arts cultivators.

"You guys find some dry firewood and light it quickly. My spiritual power can no longer support it." Faced with the overwhelming mutant vampire bats, Shangguan Zheng's heart was not as calm as his appearance.

It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, but that there were too many mutant vampire bats that were too terrifying. They were not afraid of death and rushed towards them at all costs. His spiritual power was constantly being consumed and he had no time to replenish it.

As time goes by, the spiritual power of spiritual practice is exhausted, and it is no different from an ordinary person, and everyone is not far from death.

Before he finished speaking, Li Qingyun had already lit a small torch and threw it in the air, which immediately scared the dense crowd of vampire bats into fleeing.

Their eyes don't work well, but they are sensitive to light sources. Whether they are afraid of light or hate it, whether it is the sun or flames, it always frightens them.

"Li Qingyun, where did you get the torch?" Tao Datan and Zhao Cheng asked in shock.

"As a mountain guide, how dare you go into the mountains without carrying a few torches with you?" Li Qingyun said, reaching into his backpack, taking out a torch and lighting it with a windproof lighter.

This time he did not throw it out and light up the nearby area. He pointed to the forest and said: "There are a few pine trees here. No matter whether they are dead or alive, cut them down first. If you pour gasoline on them, they will always light up."

"Have you prepared gasoline?" Everyone asked again in surprise.

"As a guide in the mountains, how dare you enter the mountain easily without preparing a few gasoline bottles?" Li Qingyun said seriously, as if he was talking about the only rules for being a guide, and no one could tell that he was talking nonsense.

"..." Everyone was completely speechless, but they didn't dare to sit idle and cut down two small pine trees as thick as a bowl.

The trunk was wet, but there were some dry branches, which were broken and gathered into a pile. After being lit with a torch, the firelight mixed with the scent of pine oil and the green smoke mixed with moisture slowly rose into the air, driving away most of the vampire bats.

There were thousands of vampire bats unwilling to leave, hovering above everyone's heads, but they did not dare to pounce down because they were afraid of the fire.

Shangguan was breathing a sigh of relief. He stood by the fire, closed his eyes and calmed down, quietly recovering his spiritual energy.

Zhao Cheng took a hatchet from Li Qingyun, showed off his martial arts skills, and chopped the two small pine trees into small pieces suitable for burning, and put them on the fire to smoke. Only by roasting away the heavy moisture on them could it be possible.

Burning, no matter whether Li Qingyun has a gasoline bottle or not, the fire will not stop.

So one fire turned into two fires, and two fires turned into four fires. With the three people surrounded in the middle, a few people finally breathed a sigh of relief and found a sense of security.

On the side, enough firewood has been piled up, ready to be thrown into the fire at any time.

It was late at night, and the outside world was as dark as the underground world. Li Qingyun and his party had been hungry for a long time, so they had a chance to eat. They grilled some sausages and cooked food, boiled a pot of boiling water, and everyone ate together.

Even Li Qingyun, who had always been particular about his diet, was not overly particular. After filling his stomach, he spread out a moisture-proof mat and meditated in the small open space in the middle of the fire.

This temporary safe zone is too small. The four of them cannot sleep, so they can only sit and rest. Fortunately, several of them are practitioners. Whether it is spiritual practice or martial arts, meditation is a basic skill. This practice method can be used in a short time.

It can replace sleep within a short period of time, and the quality of rest is even higher than sleep.

In the cave on the top of the mountain where Ding Hengzhi was, several people in ragged clothes were guarding the cave entrance. Although the cave entrance was covered with rags and rags, vampire bats still came in and were killed by the guards, making shrill screams.

They heard that it was gradually calming down at the bottom of the hill, with no sounds of fighting and no fluctuations in spiritual energy, and they immediately became anxious.

"What's going on? Is Li Qingyun really gone? Isn't he the only one who will come to save us?" Ding Hengzhi asked fearfully with his face pale and his eyes full of bloodshot eyes.

A middle-aged man from a Western Holy See family shook his head and said: "No, Li Qingyun is not the only one. Judging from the fluctuations of spiritual energy just now, there should be a master of spiritual cultivation in the third realm who is using a wide range of attack techniques."

"Then why didn't they answer me? I shouted for so long and they didn't even answer a word. Are they here to save us?" Ding Hengzhi became suspicious.

"...I don't know about this either." The middle-aged foreign man shook his head solemnly. He did not understand the grievances in the country and the political tendencies of the special management organization, so naturally he had no confidence in this.

Gurgling! I don’t know whose stomach was extremely hungry, and made a strong protest sound. This sound seemed to be contagious, and the stomach of Western Spiritual Cultivator who was on duty at the entrance of the cave also started to growl.

Two vampire bats took the opportunity to crawl in from the cracks in the cave, squeaking strangely, and pounced on his neck. The man dodged in panic, and at the same time wanted to use magic to attack the bats. However, there was an emptiness in his body, and he should obviously use it.

The displayed technique showed nothing due to the exhaustion of spiritual power. The bat suddenly pounced on his neck and bit his blood vessels fiercely.

There was no pain, and there was even a slight numbness, but the man was so frightened that he screamed, slapped him hard with his hands, and finally tore off a piece of flesh before pulling the vampire bat off his neck and throwing it to the ground.

, and then trample him to death.

"Oh, damn, I was bitten by a vampire bat. Who has pure water? I need to wash the wound! Damn, I need antibiotics and rabies vaccine... I know, I know, you have nothing... I

I thought I would definitely die, just like Tom, who was not sucked out of blood by bats, but would die of infection, ulcers all over his body, and pus. Oh, God, it looks so horrible..."

"Calm down, Owen, you'll be fine. Damn it, this vampire bat is really hard to kill. Come and help me, a few more are coming in..."

There was a sudden panic in the cave. They had no torches, only a few searchlights, which flashed wildly and killed all the vampire bats that broke in.

It's just that no one is happy because they don't know how to deal with the injured people.

Ding Hengzhi was scared to death. He was afraid that when he closed his eyes, a vampire bat would lie on his neck and suck blood. He was even more afraid that his injured companion would suddenly go crazy and tear him into pieces... who was sucked by a vampire bat.

Humans are infected with many diseases, one of the most deadly is rabies.

As if in purgatory, Ding Hengzhi spent the longest night. Looking at the time, it was around five o'clock in the morning when the sound of Tao Datan came from the foot of the hill.

"I am Tao Datan, the director of the Special Management Division. Are there any living people on the top of the mountain? If so, please answer quickly and don't delay our rescue." Tao Datan gave Li Qingyun a chance to vent his anger, so he arrived here.

Only after a few hours did he start talking.

Li Qingyun was also very satisfied with Tao Datan's cooperation. Face is given by others, but face is lost by oneself. Everyone has different positions. It's not about who is right or wrong. As long as you can get by, there is no harm in being patient for a while.

"Yes, there are living people. Director Tao, you are finally here. I am Ding Hengzhi. Please help me. We are trapped in the cave. There are many vampire bats here... Many of our people have died. At present,

There are still seven alive, but two more were injured last night. They are not in good condition. They have started to have fever and the wounds are obviously infected."

Ding Hengzhi almost burst into tears and screamed at the top of his hoarse voice, as if he was grasping at the last life-saving straw, for fear that if he let go, he would never survive.

"That's it, but we can't go up either." Tao Datan shouted with regret.

For a moment, there was silence at the top of the mountain and at the bottom of the mountain.

What kind of trouble is this? After talking for a long time, you actually said you can't go up. Zhao Cheng, carrying four torches on his back, has already stretched his muscles and is preparing to climb to the top of the mountain to save people.

Li Qingyun also looked puzzled, not knowing what Tao Datan wanted to do.

"Because there are too many vampire bats outside, in order to avoid more casualties, we can only throw a few torches up there. You can catch the torches and jump down as quickly as possible. I will ask spiritual masters to build a buffer net.

Let you come down in peace."

Tao Datan is not only trying to vent his anger on Li Qingyun, but also considers the safety of his own people, and he also has selfish motives. The task is only to appoint him to save Ding Hengzhi. As for the Western practitioners around Ding Hengzhi, he hopes that a few more will die.

, because these people, when attending national tasks, are often mortal enemies.

"Damn it, didn't you save us... What's the difference between murder and murder now?" Ding Hengzhi was furious. He had heard about Tao Datan's full stop and knew what kind of person he was, but since he came to save himself,

It must be someone from his own family who is behind it. If so, how dare this person treat him like this?

However, Tao Datan sneered at the bottom of the mountain and said in a voice that only a few people nearby could hear: "I was forced to save Ding Hengzhi due to orders from above. But he colluded with foreign cultivators and even people from the Holy See family.

Then I can't pretend not to see it. Members of our special management office were often killed by them when they were performing missions in foreign countries. Therefore, Ding Hengzhi can be saved, but the foreign cultivators around him must die.

"

Li Qingyun looked at the murderous Tao Datan and seemed to understand something. Shangguan looked calm and seemed to have known about this for a long time. Martial arts cultivator Zhao Cheng was obviously a little surprised, but he quickly understood and nodded with peace of mind.

I don't think there's anything wrong with doing this.

"I'll count to three and start throwing the torches. There are ten torches in total. I hope you can pick them up as soon as possible and put them out. Three, two, one..."

As Taodatan's cold timer sounded, the curses and complaints on the top of the mountain stopped abruptly. When he saw the torch falling to the platform on the top of the mountain, a figure suddenly rushed out to snatch the torch.

Seeing this situation, Li Qingyun shook his head secretly. Tao Datan was more ruthless than he thought. Among the people on the top of the mountain, it is estimated that only Ding Hengzhi can survive. The others have already embarked on a dead end since they snatched the torch. (

To be continued.)
