Chapter 5 Snake Road
Scratch, jam...
The pistol sounded empty.
A black shadow rushed out like lightning. When it came to a close, it suddenly jumped up, spreading its ferocious bloody mouth with its fangs and biting at Captain Chen's neck.
Captain Chen's face changed drastically. Looking at the wild cat that was rushing towards him, he was so scared that his whole body was stiff.
At this moment, Luo Yuan suddenly accelerated from static, rushed over with a quick step, and his shoulder hit the wild cat with heavy impact. At this time, the wild cat's body was in the air and was not under pressure. He immediately ran three or four meters away. It rolled around for several times and stood up, shook its head, obviously still a little dizzy.
Luo Yuan did not give it any time to react. He lifted the knife and stepped closer. It arrived in an instant at a distance of three or four meters. He raised the knife and chopped it towards the wild cat's waist.
The mountain chopping knife is thick and easy to chop. Although it is not very sharp, it is not weak at all. With just a slash, the spine is cut off. The knife goes down and cuts the whole body in half.
"Wow!"
The wild cat, cut in half, screamed and struggled to stand up. The two forelimbs kept crawling forward, and the internal organs and intestines kept flowing out along half of their body, dragging all over the floor, with a strong smell of blood in the air.
"Bang! Bang!" Zhao Qiang reacted and immediately shot repeatedly.
"Damn beast!"
The wild cat was shot twice in the head, trembling for a while, and finally stopped struggling.
"vomit!"
Huang Jiahui looked at the unusually bloody scene, her face sometimes blushed and white, and suddenly her stomach rolled. She could no longer help it and walked to the edge of the grass and began to vomit violently.
Luo Yuan was not very happy either. He rushed over with impulse at that time, and he didn't even have time to think. He didn't feel a little scared until now.
At this time, his hands kept shaking, and his body trembled slightly. If he hadn't grasped the hilt with force, the knife might have slid down now.
When did you become so brave?
At this time, Wang Fei covered his right face and slowly crawled out of the thorns, looking scared and said, "Captain, this place is too dangerous. Our police force is seriously insufficient. A wild cat let us do this. I don't know what else to encounter when we stepped forward? I feel that it's almost done here. Those missing people cannot be found."
As soon as this statement was spoken, everyone showed their intention to retreat.
Luo Yuan's face changed. The worst thing happened. He immediately said: "I didn't see the body. I will never believe that my brother-in-law is dead. At least I have to go up to the top of the mountain to see!"
"You don't have the share of your words here. If you want to go to yourself, don't take care of us!" Seeing Luo Yuan talking, Wang Fei suddenly burst out.
Luo Yuan looked at Wang Fei and was a little stunned. He had no idea why Wang Fei suddenly lost his temper with him. He didn't seem to offend him, right? He felt anger in his heart, and his words were naturally not very nice: "If you are afraid, just leave first, anyway, you are useless along the way?"
Luo Yuan's words immediately stimulated Wang Fei's sensitive heart. His face turned red. He took out his pistol and pointed at Luo Yuan and said, "Your mother, would you please try saying it again?"
"No!" Huang Jiahui shouted in surprise. She never thought that Wang Fei, who was usually shy, was such a person. He drew his gun toward him if he didn't agree with him. This was too impulsive.
"Wang Fei, stop me!" Captain Chen's face darkened and he shouted.
Seeing Captain Chen stopping, Wang Fei was also a little scared and hesitant, but his fragile self-esteem still made him hold on. He blushed and said loudly: "Captain, it's not that I don't listen to you. I want him to apologize to me!"
In an instant, Luo Yuan flashed countless thoughts. He was pointed at by a gun like this. He was not afraid of being a lie. Facing the black muzzle, Luo Yuan felt his heart beat faster in an instant. The deterrence of guns to modern people is incomparable to cold weapons. He almost felt that his thinking pauses for a moment.
Death is so close that it seems to be in front of you.
He almost wanted to beg for mercy and apologize!
But a breath in his heart always supported him. He could bow his head, but he would never bow his head at the gun. This was a humiliation to him.
All thoughts flashed, and he gradually calmed down and found that things were so terrible as they imagined. He didn't believe that Wang Fei, who had not lost his mind, dared to shoot in full view of everyone.
Moreover, he is only one meter away from Wang Fei. As long as he moves fast and decisive enough, he can even cut off his arm directly or even kill him when the other party reacts. Of course, this is by no means a rational approach, and it will only make things worse and worse.
Thinking of his ability to fight back, he calmed down completely.
He thought for a while and said, "If you want me to apologize, you should put down your gun first. If Captain Chen had not saved you just now, you would have been dead. It would be useless to be afraid now. It would be fine if Captain Chen listened to everything. If Captain Chen said he would leave, I would have nothing to say!"
This is a bit clever. It is an isolated Wang Fei, and it also a vague point of the matter of just saving Captain Chen, so that these policemen will not be hugged.
Captain Chen's face immediately became gloomy. He remembered that he had just died and was alive. If Luo Yuan had not saved his life, he would have been lying on the ground. One was to save his life, and the other could only help but almost killed him. He naturally leaned towards Luo Yuan and at the same time he also felt a little disgusted with Wang Fei.
"Wang Fei, I order you to put down your gun, have you heard it?" he said sternly.
"Team...captain...me!" Wang Fei stammered.
"Xiao Wang, put down your gun." Zhao Qiang also advised him. He also had no good feelings for Wang Fei, who was very arrogant and low-key.
Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, Wang Fei looked at Luo Yuan resentfully and put down his gun dejectedly.
Luo Yuan didn't even look at him, and walked to Captain Chen and said earnestly: "Captain Chen, I was too impulsive just now. I want to apologize to you!"
Captain Chen looked a little slow and said earnestly: "I can understand your mood. Any relative who has such a thing will do. But it is indeed dangerous here. If we can't find it at the top of the mountain, we will go back. What do you think?"
This is the purpose of taking the risk to save people just now. Otherwise, it would never be so easy to talk to. As for the apology to Wang Fei, it would naturally be left alone.
"Okay!" Luo Yuan said heavily: "I know there is not much hope, but at least there is still a little hope. If you don't look for it, you will have no hope."
Huang Jiahui also came over to comfort her and said, "Are you okay? Wang Fei just entered the police station and was a little irritable in his work. He lacked exercise. Don't take it to heart!"
"It's okay, Sister Hui! How can I be cautious?"
"How is it like being pointed at by a gun?" Zhao Qiang walked over staggeringly and grinned.
"I still have a little weak legs until now." Luo Yuan smiled bitterly.
Zhao Qiang compared his thumbs up and admired him very much. He had seen many people who were usually arrogant and arrogant. Once someone pointed at his head with a gun, he would be full of ugly things. Kowtowed and begged for mercy, which was quite calm. It was not uncommon to be scared to the point of shit and urine. He had never seen anyone as brave as Xiang Luo Yuan.
Compared with the lively bustle of Luo Yuan, no one paid attention to Wang Fei. He stood alone not far away, with anger, resentment, regret, fear and jealousy in his heart.
After staying for a while, many erratic sounds appeared around him. A big mouse first came out of the grass. It looked vigilantly at the crowd and then at the pile of corpses, looking a little hesitant.
Team Chen stood up vigilantly: "Let's go, you can't rest here anymore. The smell of blood can easily attract other wild beasts."
"Captain Chen, I think it has climbed halfway up the hill. Otherwise, we would respond if anyone heard it!" Huang Jiahui suggested.
"I'll shout after waiting here. I'm worried about alarming the nearby beasts." said Chen.
Although Luo Yuan's physical strength had not recovered, he was so tired after resting for a while. He waved the mountain knife and kept moving forward. Due to the smell of blood, there were many more animals around him, but most of them took the initiative to escape and none of them attacked.
After walking for dozens of meters, everyone started shouting at the top of their throats, but no response came.
Luo Yuan also became anxious. Could it be that Chen Weiqiang is really dead?
"Hey, do you see if there are clothes there?" Huang Jiahui suddenly pointed to a thin strip dozens of meters to the left in the distance and said.
Luo Yuan was excited and immediately looked along Huang Jiahui's finger: "It seems that there is a trace of walking there? It seems that they are entering the mountain from there. Captain, why don't we go there and take a look?"
"Okay, go and take a look!" Captain Chen said.
Luo Yuan immediately changed direction, and after more than ten minutes, several people arrived at the location where Huang Jiahui pointed.
This is a narrow path, with the trees on the path falling from place to place, as if something had been ravaged. A shirt sleeve was hanging on the branches beside the road, with spots of blood on it. The owner of the sleeve obviously would not be in a good situation.
"Looking at the freshness of the blood, it should not exceed two days. It is very likely that it was left by Mayor Xia and his group of people!" Team Chen said, squatting down and carefully checking the surroundings: "There are still blood on the ground. They may have been attacked by wild beasts at that time. In a panic, they must have escaped towards the downhill. Let's follow the path downhill to look for it?"
Luo Yuan nodded. Because there was a ready-made road, the group was much faster, but without walking dozens of meters, the blood suddenly disappeared. There was a fork about one foot wide next to it. The fork was winding, but strangely, each curvature was very regular, as if it had been measured accurately.
Looking at this regular fork, Luo Yuan suddenly remembered something, and a chill rose from the tailbone and spread throughout his body!
"Damn, this is not a snake path, right?" Zhao Qiang also remembered. He quickly raised his pistol and said with a look of alert: "Such a snake path, I wonder how big that snake will be?"
Luo Yuan saw Wang Fei secretly take a few steps back and stand behind everyone. He believed that if he hadn't been worried that it would be too dangerous for him to go down the mountain alone, he would have turned around and ran away.
"Little Luo, please decide whether to go and take a look, or go down the mountain directly?" Captain Chen handed over the decision to Luo Yuan.
"I'd better go down the mountain directly. Your brother-in-law will definitely be out of rescue." Huang Jiahui said from the side and advised.
Luo Yuan pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Captain Chen, I can go down the mountain and leave immediately, just think that my brother-in-law is dead."
He paused and continued, "I can leave, but you can't. This snake is already so big. If the damn climate does not return to normal, it will definitely become bigger in no time. When the animals on the mountain cannot satisfy it, it will go down the mountain to eat people. You are the police officers of Gaotang Town Police Station. Since you have chosen this profession, you will not be able to escape. You will be the ones sent out at that time.
Do you think it is a snake that is full and can’t even move now, or is it easier to deal with, or is it even bigger, more cruel, and hungry snake that is easy to deal with!”
"How do you know he can't move?" Wang Fei seized the opportunity and immediately asked.
Luo Yuan glanced at him, as if he was looking at the idiot again, and said, "Even if a snake is as thick as a bucket, it will take several days or even a week to digest after swallowing four or five people. During this period, its movement will be greatly restricted and even difficult to move. In fact, it is not as dangerous as imagined."
After saying that, he looked at Team Chen and waited for him to make a decision.
If the other party gives up, he has no choice but to let the mission fail.
This time he was not prepared enough, and he could not deal with a giant snake at all. In addition, he had a phobia against snakes, so he might not even be able to exert his strength at the fifth level.
Captain Chen's expression changed. After a long time, he stared at Luo Yuan and said, "I hope you are right. For the sake of the villagers at the foot of the mountain, let's go and have a look!"
He still felt a sense of justice in his heart. The other party said it well. If such a giant snake was not killed as soon as possible, the village below would be very dangerous. More people would die in Shekou.
In front of Dayi, even Wang Fei, who was full of fear, closed his mouth!
As soon as I walked onto this snake path, the atmosphere became a little depressed. Looking at the tilted branches around me, I could roughly estimate how powerful this snake was. As long as it gently swept it, even if it is not dead, it will probably be half-dead.
Huang Jiahui followed Luo Yuan tightly, and kept moving forward, almost approaching his body. Obviously, she felt safer around him.
Luo Yuan smiled bitterly in his heart. His palms were wet and sweaty. The knife handle was soaked in sweat, which seemed a little slippery! If she knew that he was afraid of death now, she would not know what would she think?
Everyone was careful all the way and was very nervous. In just a few minutes, the group was already sweating profusely, and their clothes seemed to be soaked in water.
Half an hour later, the snake path finally came to an end. There was a bare slope in front of it. From below, you could easily see dead trees scattered and lodged. It is hard to imagine that a vast land appeared in this dense jungle!
The few people immediately rested on their bodies, and they didn't dare to go out. There was no doubt that this was the place where the giant snake lived.
"Xiao Wang, go and take a look, be careful not to disturb it!" Captain Chen whispered. He originally wanted to call Luo Yuan, but then he thought about it all the way, basically Luo Yuan, a commoner, was helping, and the policemen did nothing, so they felt embarrassed to let others take risks again.
Wang Fei's face turned pale. He looked at the others and looked at Luo Yuan again.
Luo Yuan turned around as if he noticed it and looked at him mockingly.
The look made Wang Fei feel indescribable. He held his breath in his chest and blurted out: "Okay!"
As soon as he said it, he immediately regretted it, but he could not swallow any more of what he said.
He took out his pistol slowly and moved his body step by step forward, as if he was on the execution ground. He walked for more than ten minutes in just a few dozen meters away, and in the last ten meters, his legs became even weaker and he lay on the ground like a flesh worm, and he never dared to move forward again.
Captain Chen's face immediately became dark.
"It's really a shame for the police!" Zhao Qiang grinned and said, "I'll go!"
Luo Yuan sneered in his heart. Wang Fei dared to draw his gun at him when he faced him mocking him, but in the face of real fear, he couldn't even stand up. Even if he had a gun in his hand, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Captain Chen nodded. He was completely disappointed with Wang Fei. How could such a person be a policeman? He was not even as good as an ordinary person.
Zhao Qiang was obviously a soldier. He lay on the ground and crawled forward, but his speed was not slow at all. Within a few minutes, he had already climbed to Wang Fei. He picked up Wang Fei's gun and stuffed it into his belt. He ignored him and continued to crawl forward.
