"boom--"
At this moment, a slightly dull explosion suddenly sounded, breaking the thoughts of several people.
Without time to think too much, Chen Ziyan and others immediately turned their heads and looked behind them, but saw no trace of an explosion.
After carefully recalling the direction of the explosion, Chen Ziyan was shocked to find that the sound came from the other side of the camp, where Li Wu and the Wang family met.
After realizing this, Chen Ziyan subconsciously looked at Li Wu beside him, and when he looked over, Li Wu, who also noticed this, happened to look towards him.
The two people's eyes successfully collided in the air. Although neither one said a word, they both understood the other's thoughts from their eyes.
"Fifth Master, I'm afraid something will happen over there in the camp. Could you please go with Manager Li to maintain order? I'll go to the other side first to see what's going on. Manager Li will explain the rest to you. "
There was no time to say anything more. After Chen Ziyan left these words, his figure had already disappeared.
The reason why he was so anxious was because he couldn't help it.
The explosion could not only be heard by them, but also by the camp that was closer. If he was a member of the Wang family hiding in the camp, at this time, whether it was for himself or to help his companions in the dark, he would I won't choose to sit still and wait for death.
Yingzi may not be able to suppress this situation, so someone from their side has to go over to stabilize the situation.
So Chen Ziyan decided to split his troops into two groups and go investigate the cause of the explosion himself, while Wu Laogou accompanied Li Wu to the camp to help Yingzi stabilize the situation on site to prevent anyone who wanted to take advantage of the situation to save trouble.
Seeing Chen Ziyan disappear in the forest in an instant, Li Wu and Wu Laogou looked at each other and made helpless gestures of invitation:
"Fifth Master, if you have anything to do, how about we talk about it later?"
Li Wu knew that Chen Ziyan still did not completely trust him, otherwise he would not have arranged for Wu Laogou to be with him.
However, he had no way to refute this, after all, he had indeed not done anything to gain enough trust so far.
Although Wu Laogou had doubts in his heart, he also knew what he should do. Naturally, he would not refuse Li Wu's proposal and nodded in agreement:
"Okay, let's talk about it later. Business is more important."
He also understood Chen Ziyan's purpose of staying behind, and he also knew that there was no room for failure in the camp, at least at this stage.
The two people who successfully reached a consensus no longer delayed and immediately rushed towards the camp.
Chen Ziyan on the other side used all his strength to reach the ultimate speed. Even though there were dense trees blocking him, he successfully reached the explosion site in a few breaths.
When he came to this forest, the first thing he saw was the conspicuous hole on the ground. There were obvious damaged metal structures on the edge of the dark hole. It was obvious that the isolation layer he had discovered had been torn.
The splashing mud around the pothole showed that the explosion came from bottom up.
After glancing around, Chen Ziyan discovered that the pothole appeared only a few meters away from where he had previously inspected.
But this is not the most attractive thing about this place for Chen Ziyan. What he is most concerned about right now is the unique connection that finally returned to normal after he arrived nearby.
He had been vaguely aware of the puppet armor's location before, but because of the fragility of the connection, he had never been able to determine the other party's location. However, after arriving here, the connection finally returned to normal.
What puzzled Chen Ziyan was why he only felt the presence of Hua Hu and not the more powerful Wushuang Ghost.
With such doubts, Chen Ziyan tentatively approached the pothole and cautiously looked down.
According to his induction, Huahu was not only down here, but also right under the pothole.
When the scene in the pothole came into view, Chen Ziyan saw Hua Hu as expected.
At this moment, Huahu is hiding behind a... a wall, and is accompanied by a group of fierce dogs, the same ones sent by Wu Laogou.
However, judging from their appearance, their situation does not seem to be very good. The clothes on the Hua Hu's body have been severely damaged, and among the fierce dogs, except for the leading dog king, almost all of them are injured.
Huahu also felt Chen Ziyan's arrival, but it had received Chen Ziyan's order in advance, so it did not raise its head to look at him.
Chen Ziyan did not act rashly. He slowly put his head back. After taking two steps back to leave the pit, he relied on the special connection with Puppet A to ask Huahu what happened.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Now that there is a confrontation below, there is no need for him to join in. He should first find out what is going on before talking about it.
Through Huahu's intermittent description, Chen Ziyan quickly figured out the general story of what happened.
After being separated from Chen Ziyan, Huahu and Wushuanggui followed Chen Ziyan's orders and led the dogs closely behind their nephew, forcing them to flee to the ground.
The subsequent development was just as Chen Ziyan thought. Under the leadership of the panicked nephew, Puppet Jia did find another way to the ground.
However, this road was dug by Nephew, and the size of the passage was limited. Huahu and the dogs could barely enter, but the size of the Wushuang Ghost was completely out of reach, so Huahu took the dogs into the passage to continue the mission. The Wushuang Ghost was left behind to slowly expand the passage.
The next thing was also very simple, just follow the nephew and be guided by his aura. This task was not difficult at all, and the foxes and dogs who followed did not encounter any trouble.
But just before arriving on the ground, the calm was broken by a strange drum sound.
At that time, Huahu and the dogs were still in the passage. When the drums sounded, the dogs slumped on the spot as if they had encountered a natural enemy. Even the dog king was trembling and did not dare to move at all.
Fortunately, Huahu is essentially a dead thing and the impact is limited, so he was able to take the opportunity to follow the sound to find the underground palace, and grab the weird drum while the other party was not prepared. Otherwise, the dogs would still be paralyzed in the passage below. .
Once discovered in that state, it is estimated that the dogs that Wu Laogou has high hopes for may be sent away at the same time.
Huahu was very vague about what happened next. At that time, its main focus was on fighting. As the puppet armor of the Xiling war machine, although its combat power at close range was not as good as that of the Wushuang Ghost, it was by no means an ordinary weapon. People can resist.
However, based on some fragments of words, Chen Ziyan successfully deduced what happened.
Probably when Hua Hu was fighting the opponent, the recovered dog king joined the battlefield with the dog group, fighting two extraordinary creatures in close combat. No matter how well-trained the opponent was, it was difficult to resist, so in order to be able to exert his strength As for the role of firearms, those people used grenades to distance themselves.
After all, if you want to fully unleash the power of a firearm, a certain buffer space is essential.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that if the situation had not been severe to a certain extent, no one would have rashly used explosives underground. This is undoubtedly a joke on lives.
And since this place is so close to the camp, even if we win in the end, there will definitely be a lot of trouble afterwards.
However, it turned out that the opponent's move was correct. After successfully forcing back the Huahu and the dog group, the group not only quickly reorganized their formation, but also relied on firepower to change the situation, successfully suppressing the Huahu and the dog group. this area.
"this……"
After figuring out the ins and outs of the matter, Chen Ziyan was a little speechless. The relationship was not an evenly matched confrontation.
However, he was not surprised by this result, because it was pretty good to be able to achieve this level without command.
As for the reason why the opponent did not attack further, Chen Ziyan also had some guesses. At present, there are only two reasons.
One is that the Wang family members who have been staying underground are not aware of the changes on the ground, so they think the camp is still under their own control.
That Hua Hu and the dogs were forced under this pothole was not just a coincidence, but it should have been done deliberately by the Wang family below, who wanted to better cooperate inside and outside when the time came.
Secondly, they probably felt that even if they could kill the foxes and dogs by themselves, it would be difficult to ensure the safety of the drum.
Although it was still unclear what the so-called drum was, judging from the effects described by Huahu, Chen Ziyan knew that it must be a treasure.
After understanding this, Chen Ziyan had a plan in mind. He knew that the time he had left was limited, so he began to use his limited perspective to observe the situation below.
He didn't know whether there was no light source below, or whether it was damaged in the melee, so the light source of the underground palace below at this time came entirely from the hole in front of him.
With the help of the light that poured in, Chen Ziyan quickly had a panoramic view of what he could see.
Although he couldn't see the rest of the place and walls, Chen Ziyan could tell from the shape and texture of the floor tiles that were not covered with soil that it should be a building from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. He just didn't know when the construction below started. Even the underground palace sank into the ground due to geological changes.
In fact, Chen Ziyan wanted to see if he could determine the specific location of the Wang family. After all, the information provided by Huahu was too general. He only knew that the other party was on the other side of the wall, and the rest of the information was basically zero.
But unfortunately, Chen Ziyan couldn't determine this without being able to stick his head directly into the pothole.
After reviewing the known information in his mind, Chen Ziyan did not intend to wait any longer. Although he was not able to ignore firearms yet, he could still handle this kind of situation, so he had to resolve it before things changed. .
After making the decision, Chen Ziyan took out his weapon, slightly bent his legs and began to accumulate strength, and then jumped into the pit. (End of chapter)
