Just as Xu Lang was about to go down the mountain and rush to Chenjiahe Village where the fire was burning, the wails of animals suddenly sounded on the other side of the mountain. The wails seemed to be mixed with human shouts.
Xu Lang was stunned at first, and then his heart moved. Someone was killing these animals. It seemed that Chen Weiguo and the others were planning to destroy the evidence. Xu Lang suddenly felt something bad and decided to go there first, because among the wailing sounds of the animals,
Xu Lang also vaguely heard people calling.
"let's go."
Xu Lang walked out of the cave and said to Chen Lingxuan.
"Let's go? Where? To the village?" Chen Lingxuan looked at Xu Lang in confusion.
Xu Lang shook his head, stretched out a finger to point to the place where the animal's cry just now came from, and said: "Go over there."
"Where to go? What are you doing there?" Chen Lingxuan asked in confusion.
“You’ll know once you go there.”
Xu Lang didn't explain anything, stretched out his hand to hold Chen Lingxuan's hand, and walked in the direction of the sound.
There was still some time before dawn, and the moon that was originally high in the sky was completely shrouded in dark clouds, and the earth became dark. Except for the firelight coming from Chenjiahe Village, nothing could be seen clearly.
Xu Lang led Chen Lingxuan towards the other side of the mountain. On the way there, Xu Lang's expression was very solemn.
When he chose to escape from the Chen Wei country, Xu Lang had already thought about the current situation. He knew that when he brought Lai Pi and the others to Chenjiahe Village suddenly, this would definitely be nothing to Uncle Li and the others.
The good news is that Uncle Li and his team's actions were beyond Xu Lang's expectations. They subdued Lai Pi and his team.
In fact, until now, Xu Lang still doesn't know how Uncle Li and the others subdued them so easily without causing any reaction from Lai Pi and the others.
However, no matter what the process was, it was a fact that Lai Pi and the others were subdued, and this result caused Xu Lang to be quite passive at the time. The two sides almost broke up completely, although they did not completely break up.
, but it's not much better. They subdued Lai Pi and others, which means they hold a very important bargaining chip in their hands, and this bargaining chip makes Xu Lang dare not act rashly.
When Xu Lang decided to run away, he thought of what Uncle Li and the others would do after discovering that he had escaped, such as asking people to destroy the car they were driving so that Xu Lang and the others could not leave in the car. Another example was,
Chen Qiang and the others were asked to take people back to the cave to check the situation and search for him all over the mountains and plains. None of this exceeded Xu Lang's expectations. However, what Xu Lang didn't expect was that Uncle Li would be so ruthless. After knowing that he had escaped, he still had
After rescuing Lai Pi and the others, he actually set fire to the village, burning all the secrets of the village into a pile of ashes.
Xu Lang knew that even if he rescued Lai Pi and the others, they would definitely not approach Chenjiahe Village again. Instead, he would think of protecting himself first, and then contact the city bureau and wait for the arrival of the large force. This would take time, and Li
The uncle had obviously thought of this too. Xu Lang and the others needed time to wait, and they also needed time to evacuate.
When things have reached this point, Chenjiahe Village has been completely exposed. This is an ironclad fact. Regardless of whether Xu Lang and the others can be found, people from the Municipal Bureau are definitely on their way, and they want to destroy the evidence so that the police cannot investigate.
, the simplest way is to destroy, and the best way to destroy a village is to set fire to it.
Xu Lang didn't know how Uncle Li and the others persuaded the people in the village to agree to set the fire. However, Xu Lang believed that even if they rushed to Chenjiahe Village now, it would not be able to help. What could Xu Lang and Chen Lingxuan alone do?
What?
Another thing that worries Xu Lang the most is where are Lai Pi and the others now? How did they escape? After they escaped, would they rush to Chenjiahe Village to rescue themselves immediately? If so,
If this is the case, then Lai Pi and the others must be in a very dangerous situation now. Xu Lang hopes that Lai Pi and the others will not go back.
Just now on the other side of the mountain, Xu Lang heard the wails of many animals. If he guessed correctly, the place where the sounds came from should be the place where they imprisoned wild protected animals. Since Chen Weiguo and the others had decided to set fire to the village,
Then, these animals that are likely to be used as evidence to accuse them of committing crimes will definitely be killed and disposed of. As long as there is no evidence, even if the police arrive here and catch some of them, they can't do anything to them.
Although Xu Lang couldn't bear the thought of those animals being killed, Xu Lang didn't actually care that much. Firstly, the people Xu Lang dealt with most were criminals, not these animals. Secondly, compared with human lives,
Everything else is actually not that important. Just now, Xu Lang vaguely heard someone calling for help. Because of the distance, Xu Lang couldn't hear who was calling for help, and he didn't know whether the person was a man or a woman.
, there are several people.
When he heard the cry for help, the first thing Xu Lang thought of was Lai Pi and the others. If Lai Pi and the others were discovered, they might be the ones who were killed. Even if it wasn't Lai Pi and the others, it might be those pregnant women that Chen Lingxuan mentioned.
, if what Chen Lingxuan said is true, and if Xu Lang's guess is correct, if Chen Weiguo and the others are really engaged in criminal activities of selling babies, then since Uncle Li and the others have reached this stage, they will definitely not take them with them.
Leave together.
Since we can't take him away with us, we can't
The easiest way to leave evidence for the police's follow-up investigation is to kill someone and silence them. Xu Lang believed that Uncle Li could do these things. No matter what, Xu Lang had to rush over and take a look, no matter if it was Lai Pi or the others who called for help.
, or those women with big bellies, Xu Lang had to find a way to save them. After all, they were all human lives, each and every living person.
While Xu Lang was thinking about this, he pulled Chen Lingxuan and ran over there.
The road was difficult to walk, and Xu Lang and the others had to walk very hard. In other words, there was no road at all under Xu Lang's feet. Xu Lang just used his body to tear up a road.
The dark night was getting darker and darker, and the wind was blowing through the leaves, making a rustling sound, which brought new obstacles to Xu Lang and the others' progress. The screams of the animals had gradually decreased, and by the end
, has completely disappeared, and the calls of people have become less and less. Occasionally, someone can be heard to let out a shrill scream, and then the screams suddenly stop, which makes Xu Lang's heart even more intense.
became solemn.
I don't know how long it took, but the shirt on Xu Lang's upper body was completely scrapped and completely turned into strands of cloth hanging on Xu Lang's body. As Xu Lang ran, they also rose and fell. Look.
When he got up, he looked very funny and funny.
Finally, Xu Lang came here from the cave just now, and some bright lights also appeared in front of Xu Lang's eyes. Xu Lang ran from the mountain. At this moment, he was standing on the mountainside. Those lights came from the foot of the mountain.
Come.
Because of the distance, Xu Lang couldn't see clearly what was going on below, but he could see figures walking around, and there seemed to be many things lying on the ground, and some occasionally squirmed slightly. It seemed like some kind of
Animals, but also like people.
Xu Lang glanced at it for a few times, his face was terrifyingly gloomy and solemn. He turned his head and said to the panting Chen Lingxuan: "I'm going to go down and check the situation. You stay here and don't move. I will come to you later. Do you understand?"
?”
Chen Lingxuan was squatting on the ground and breathing heavily. When she heard Xu Lang's voice, Chen Lingxuan could no longer speak and just nodded silently.
Seeing Chen Lingxuan nodding, Xu Lang didn't say anything and moved towards a bright place. He had to get closer to see what was going on at the scene.
"Click..."
"Rumble..."
Just as Xu Lang was moving towards the foot of the mountain, a flash of lightning suddenly lit up in the sky, followed by a dull thunder. It looked like it was going to rain soon. Xu Lang did not dare to neglect and ran towards the foot of the mountain quickly.
Just now, at the moment when the lightning flashed, Xu Lang used the light of the lightning to see clearly what was happening below.
At the foot of the mountain, Xu Lang saw several people holding machetes in their hands. They were holding a flashlight in one hand and a machete in the other. They were patrolling the field. Two of them were holding a machete.
Big buckets were scattering something on these corpses. In that area that was not open, there were many corpses lying on the ground. Most of them were the corpses of animals. They were dead, and the bright red blood dyed the ground red. And in these
Among the animal carcasses, there were several people lying upside down. Judging from their swollen bellies, they must be people, and they were women.
Xu Lang's heart sank. Sure enough, his guess was correct. They were indeed killing people, not only animals, but also people.
"Rumble..."
Muffled thunder sounded one after another, and Xu Lang could not hear clearly what the people at the foot of the mountain were saying. When Xu Lang was about to reach the foot of the mountain, Xu Lang discovered that these people were already preparing to leave, and when they left, one of them
A man lit a torch and then threw it into the scene.
As soon as the torch touched the ground, blue flames jumped up, and a fire suddenly broke out on the scene. After one look, the person who set the fire turned and left.
"grass."
When Xu Lang saw this scene, he cursed. He didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't care whether he would fall. He ran past several trees. A few meters away from the foot of the mountain, Xu Lang ran directly from above.
Jumped down.
"Tum."
Xu Lang's body fell to the ground in various ways, and the exposed skin came into close contact with the uneven ground. Xu Lang almost screamed out in pain.
However, Xu Lang didn't have time to check the wound, so he rolled and crawled towards the center.
The scene was filled with the overwhelming smell of blood, gasoline, and the smell of burnt flesh in a fire. As the strong wind blew, these smells rushed toward Xu Lang's nose.
Several smells mixed together were disgusting. Even Xu Lang, who had seen many extremely bloody murder scenes, felt very uncomfortable in his stomach at this moment. However, he still fell to the ground towards the women he just saw.
place to crawl to.
Xu Lang quickly came to the middle of the fire and found the women. Xu Lang was not mistaken. The people lying on the ground were indeed people. There were seven women in total, all of them were pregnant. They all fell in a pool of blood, their necks
A cut was made on their bodies with a sharp blade, blood spurted out, and their bodies were still convulsing unconsciously.
"Wake up, wake up..."
Xu Lang ran among the seven people and stretched out his hands to shake the bodies of these women desperately.
However, no matter how Xu Lang shakes
Akira, none of these women made any movement, and their warm bodies gradually began to cool down, which made Xu Lang feel very unwilling.
"Oh...save me...save me..."
Just when Xu Lang kept calling, the body of the woman lying on the far right moved slightly and made a weak cry for help. Xu Lang was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
The woman on the ground turned over and found that the woman was still alive. Her face was very pale, and there was a deep wound on her neck and collarbone. However, the carotid artery was not stabbed. Xu Lang breathed a sigh of relief.
.
Xu Lang directly took off the shirt that could no longer be called clothes, tore the clothes into several strips of cloth, and tied them to the woman's wound. After doing all this, Xu Lang said in a deep voice: "Hold on.
I'm here to save you."
After saying this, Xu Lang felt that the fire was getting closer and closer to him. He didn't have time to say anything to the woman, so he picked her up from the ground with a princess hug and rushed out towards the weakest part of the fire.
.
The smell of blood and gasoline at the scene was very strong. When the fire burned, it quickly consumed the surrounding oxygen, giving Xu Lang a feeling of suffocation. When he rushed out of the fire with the woman in his arms, Xu Lang could clearly
Xu Lang felt the burning sensation of the flames licking his exposed skin. The hairs on his skin were burned away by the flames in an instant. Then, Xu Lang felt a heart-piercing burning sensation.
"ah......"
Xu Lang gritted his teeth, and finally rushed out with the woman in his arms. The burning sensation immediately eased a lot. When the cold wind blew on the burned area, Xu Lang couldn't help but shiver and let out a suppressed cry.
Screaming in pain.
The fire at the scene was very strong, and gasoline was poured on it, which further accelerated the spread of the fire. Moreover, at this time, there was a strong wind here, and the fire was blown bigger and bigger. Xu Lang did not stop here while holding the woman in his arms.
, but continued to run forward.
I don't know how long he ran, but Xu Lang felt that he couldn't run anymore. He hugged the woman and gasped for breath. He stopped, turned his head, and looked behind him. He found that the fire had not spread here. Xu Lang was relieved.
The tone made him almost sit down on the ground, but Xu Lang still gritted his teeth and put the woman on the ground, and then he collapsed on the ground.
The violent exercise made Xu Lang sweat all over. His exposed upper body had just been burned by the fire. At this time, the sweat flowed out. When it passed through the wound, he felt a sharp pain, which made Xu Lang's expression extremely tense.
It twisted ferociously.
"Crash..."
Just when Xu Lang was cursing in his mind and looking at the blazing fire in the distance, footsteps suddenly sounded around him. Although the footsteps were very small, Xu Lang noticed something strange for the first time. This made him relax just now.
Xu Lang came down and immediately became alert.
Xu Lang suddenly stood up from the cold ground. Without thinking, he pulled out the pistol from his waist, pulled the slide, loaded the bullet, and aimed at the place where the sound came from. He stared there with his eyes fixed on it and yelled.
Said: "Who?"
At the moment when the sound sounded, Xu Lang was really nervous. Could it be that the person who set the fire just now came back? If so, how many people did they come back? If there were only one or two people, Xu Lang was confident that he could do it right away.
To subdue them, if those people just come back, Xu Lang's situation will definitely not be good. Of course, Xu Lang can choose to escape immediately, but if Xu Lang runs away, then the person who was saved from the fire just now will
The woman who comes out will fall into the clutches of the devil again, and her fate can be imagined.
Just when Xu Lang was looking ahead with all his concentration, behind Xu Lang, two figures approached quietly. Because the light here was very dark, Xu Lang did not notice anything strange at the first time.
Thunders kept ringing in the sky, and the strong wind blew the surrounding trees, making a crashing sound. Behind Xu Lang, crackling sounds could be heard from time to time on the other side of the fire, and all these sounds made Xu Lang
Lang began to wonder if he had heard the sound wrong just now.
Xu Lang didn't dare to be sure, and he didn't dare to let down his guard. If that group of people came back, both Xu Lang and the woman on the ground would be in danger.
"Click."
Suddenly, a sound of trampling dead branches sounded behind Xu Lang. Xu Lang's body tensed up immediately, and he turned around without even thinking about it. Then, he pulled the trigger and shot behind him.
"Bang."
A crisp gunshot rang out, followed by the sound of bullets hitting rocks, and a string of cremations.
When Xu Lang turned around, he found that there were two people approaching him behind him. Because their backs were to the fire, Xu Lang couldn't see their faces clearly and thought they were the group of people just now. Xu Lang opened
However, what surprised Xu Lang was that his shot did not hit the opponent, and the opponent actually dodged.
Just when Xu Lang was about to pull the trigger again, something cold pressed against Xu Lang's temple, and then a man's voice sounded.
"Don't move, I'll shoot you to death if you move."
Hearing the sound, Xu Lang rolled his eyes slightly, and out of the corner of his eye he saw what was pressed against his temple. It was a dark pistol. The safety of the pistol had been turned on. As long as Xu Lang moved slightly, the bullet would be fired instantly.
