Daomu Biji

Chapter 19

The scene of the explosion was extremely terrifying as a large fiery red cloud was released into the night sky and the flames shot very high. Many things were thrown into the air and sparks flew everywhere.

"It's gasoline, the generator was blown up." Fatty said, "Now they're screwed."

"How could it explode?" Leather Bag held a shovel. "These big cats couldn't bite the generator and cause it to explode."

The words were just spoken when there was another explosion. This time, the momentum was slightly smaller, but the foreigners' camp was blown to pieces.

Fatty looked pale and glanced in the other direction where the forest on the left of the foreigners' camp was: "No, f.u.c.k me, that was—"

"What was it?"

"Impossible, that sounds like mortars." Fatty said.

"Mortars?" I was surprised and asked, "Someone is using mortars to hit them?" Was there really an army coming? Impossible, even an armed police force only needed guns to deal with us. They thought too highly of us if they were using mortars.

Fatty also wore a look of disbelief, and kept his ears open, hoping to hear the next sound.

I looked over to Qiu Dekao's camp where there were no further explosions. The attack on the other side also seemed to be over, except for the fire pit left from the explosion. Everything was suddenly silent and all seemed to have been killed.

Fatty listened and suddenly began to curse. He turned to look at the campfire behind him and shouted, "Bag, put out the bonfire!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a small light in the dark woods, and the sound of a small cannon, Fatty immediately shouted, "Get on the ground!"

I pulled Mute Sister and Xiuxiu down to the ground on the beach as everything exploded behind me. My ears buzzed, my body was lifted several feet into the air, and a stream of hot air came directly from the soles of my feet. The whole beach was blown up and rubble rained down upon us.

When all the stones fell, Fatty swore, "Son of a b.i.t.c.h." Looking back, our bonfire was blown up and there were only scattered coals around.

"Guerrillas use wild animals to drive people to the campfire first, and then use mortars to strike it accurately." Fatty explained.

"You even know this?" I asked.

Fatty said, "Master Three, you don't know how to a.n.a.lyze. How did you become like your nephew? You can see clearly with your eyes what's going on. "

I scolded him in my heart, and he continued: "But there's only one person."

"Why do you think so?" Xiuxiu asked with an ashen face.

"The fact that we're still alive

"Then we'll escape under the cover of darkness." Leather Bag said. I shook my head: "The foreigners must be in the same situation as us. If they also try to escape this way, our two sides might meet and there will definitely be an accident. For now, we have to wait and see."

Just as I said that, we suddenly saw bursts of light and heard the m.u.f.fled sound of gunfire in the woods.

All of us bowed our heads reflexively, and I thought, "s.h.i.+t, where is it going to hit next?" I heard a slight whistle in the air and it turned out the sh.e.l.l was coming towards us.

Is he aiming for the same position? I cursed in my heart. The explosion was not around us, but in the forest about several hundred meters away.

It was still a long way off and the impact was not strong, but it immediately burst into flames.

Fatty and I looked over there and Fatty asked me, "What's over there?"

As I watched, another mortar came almost instantly and landed in the same place.

I immediately knew where the other party was attacking. We're f.u.c.ked!

"Crevice!" I shouted, "He's bombing that crevice!"

"Which one?"

"The one we pulled you out of!" I hurled abuse at him and stumbled over the bushes. I rushed into the woods and came to the edge of the mountain, and knew it was all over. The whole mountainside over there was blown up and the crevice was buried under it. The people who had been guarding it were in danger and likely to be trapped underneath, and Xiao Hua and Pan Zi may never come out of this hole again.

I rushed forward and tried to move the rubble, but Fatty pulled me back. Almost at the same time, another sh.e.l.l landed on the cliff, blasting out a heavy rain of gravel.

In the firelight, I saw a man standing on the ridge in the distance.

I couldn't see him, but I recognized the shadow. He had no shoulders.

Leather Bag and Fatty were about to go forward to encircle and suppress, but I stopped them. The shadow quickly turned around and disappeared into the woods.

This night's attack caused heavy losses to everyone. I watched as dozens of sh.e.l.ls landed on the cliff and completely destroyed the entire crevice.

The sh.e.l.ls weren't fired from the same direction, and it was obvious the shooter was moving the entire time, but he was too familiar with the layout, and could accurately hit the crevice on such a dark night.

Fatty wasn't interested in hearing my theory about that shoulder-less strange man in Banai. He looked at his stomach and was furious.

At first I only vaguely thought that this man was the one who started the fire, but now it seemed that he was putting his foot down. He probably knew a lot of inside information, and if I have time, I have to find a way to catch him.

After daybreak, we cleaned up our camp and I sent a few people to visit Qiu Dekao's camp to check on their situation. We learned that they were worse off than we were—seven dead, most of whom were indiscriminately shot by their own, countless people were severely injured, and almost all of them had minor injuries.

The lynx came from the lake, and our and Qiu Dekao's sentries were all located near the woods, not expecting a sneak attack from that direction. After that, there was such a heavy attack power that naturally no one could come out unscathed.

These lynx seemed to have been trained, and the one who attacked us could actually control their behavior. But I couldn't think deeply about it right now. What made me lose all hope was that the crevice was blocked. Not to mention saving the others' lives, Xiao Hua and Pan Zi couldn't come back now.

What should I do? It was all I could think about. And since everyone looked to me, I had to give an answer; otherwise I could only say: let's go back to our homes.

We can't go home! I got back a Fatty and lost a Pan Zi and a Xiao Hua. The deal wasn't worthwhile and I still lost money.

Fatty was very depressed because the map he had carved on his stomach suddenly lost all its value. We sat on the stones, silently eating the food that still smelled of gunpowder. Xiuxiu said, "Master Three, you have to come up with an idea."

I sighed, knowing that I had only one choice, and said to them, "The plan remains unchanged, but we can only change the path now. The crevices here extend in all directions. Maybe we can find other entrances. "

Fatty shook his head: "Impossible, we don't have that much time. The only way now is to return to the original junction and go back to that unfathomable corridor. "

We can only go to the original intersection, and although I don't know what will happen, it will save time compared to digging through the stones here.
