The two hollow caves were accidentally discovered by Melaine during an expedition many years ago.
4 years ago, I started planning after I became pregnant.
It took a whole year to transport it in by myself and assemble it according to the drawings.
All equipment were the latest technological products produced at that time.
She was pregnant for nearly a year and gave birth to Xiao Wenwen. Since then, she has not been here due to breastfeeding and safety issues.
Xiao Wenwen took off his helmet, looked at everything curiously, and asked:
"Mommy, where are we? Are we hiding and seeking?"
"Xiao Wenwen is the best behaved. There are a lot of bad people outside. Mom and you will hide here. When mom drives away the bad guys, she will take you out."
At this time, the beep of battery shortage sounded.
Melaine ran over, opened the plastic cover, and started two small oxygen ion generators at the same time.
The engine sound is not loud, and the 5 battery packs can be fully charged to last for three days.
Then, he walked close to the outside of the tightly wrapped cabinet and pressed an electric switch. The top of the alloy shell slowly opened upwards, lowered and folded backwards, revealing a rectangular rescue cabin inside.
Through the outside observation window, you can see the soft lighting inside, a soft bed in the middle, and a dozen medical probes hanging from the top of the cabinet, which is somewhat similar to hospital ICU equipment.
On the sealed door outside, there is an LCD screen that displays data such as humidity, oxygen concentration, exhaust gas content, etc.
After taking a look and seeing nothing unusual, Mei Lan stopped paying attention, took out food for his son, told him not to move, and immediately got busy.
Outside, Jiao Wanda, two other Jiangtou divisions, and four sturdy men rushed to the top of the mountain opposite the cave, panting.
Everyone's clothes had a lot of cuts, and some parts were even stained with blood.
Obviously, this journey has not been easy.
The Gu worms of the three head-dropping masters had already tracked here in advance. After losing the scent of the target, they lingered and waited 500 meters upstream of the water surface of the cave.
Jiao Wanda and his two companions contacted the natal Gu respectively. After mutual verification, they concluded that the target probably disappeared after entering the water.
The wooden boat has drifted downstream with the current, and it is meaningless whether to find it or not.
Seven people gathered together and discussed for a long time, and came to the same conclusion:
Mei Lanyin, mother and son, must have slipped away under the water, so there are only two possibilities.
The first is to swim upstream and downstream, and then go ashore and leave after being out of the scanning range of the natal Gu.
The second is to enter the underground caves under the stone walls on both sides of the bank, intending to take temporary or long-term refuge.
As for which path Mei Lanyin, mother and son took, the seven people had different opinions and began to hold their own opinions and stick to their own guesses.
If they knew the true intention of Mei Lanyin and her son's trip, they would understand without guessing.
After repeated analysis and debate, the seven people finally realized the weirdness of the target that went against common sense.
In such cold weather, a mother is running around with a 3-year-old child, even diving in the biting cold water. Is she not afraid of freezing and choking the baby?
Wouldn't it be even more dangerous if he were to escape pursuit and go to a remote place in the countryside?
Among them, there must be connections or secrets that are difficult to reveal.
Excluding this, there is only one purpose left, which is to find a safe and sheltered place, such as an underground cave, to survive a certain dangerous period.
Regarding this conclusion, 7 people reviewed it again and believed that the possibility was more than 90%.
At this point, Jiao Wanda finally figured out that the other party's sudden departure was largely because of the children.
The child must have been in trouble and needed a period of absolute silence.
In the villa community, I couldn't rest peacefully, so I came to the pre-arranged underground cave.
This is the biggest obstacle to the goal, and the blood of a child is equally tempting. The golden opportunity to fulfill your long-cherished wish has come, how can you miss it.
Thinking of this, a sly smile appeared on Jiao Wanda's gloomy face.
After the seven people unanimously agreed, they planned the next move and believed that waiting for the opportunity was the only option for now.
Their physiques are stronger than ordinary people, but after all they are not up to the level of a humanoid tyrannosaurus like Melanin.
At present, the equipment is insufficient and the underwater situation is unknown. If we force ourselves into the water to search, not to mention the high risk, even if we are soaked in cold water for a long time, we will gradually lose our combat effectiveness.
After division of labor, the seven people were divided into two parts. The descending division was responsible for tracking and guarding; of the four invited international mercenaries, three were responsible for setting up tents and one was responsible for contacting the firearms.
The cold wind howled outside, blowing through the cracks in the rocks.
The cave is isolated from many natural influences, and the internal temperature is relatively high, preventing children from frostbite.
Xiao Wenwen kept eating until he couldn't swallow anymore.
Melaine was busy until 8 pm, and the preparations were temporarily completed.
In the outside world, the seven people were monitored by Gu insects. They did not have to take turns on duty. They put on their coats and got into sleeping bags, huddled together to keep each other warm.
Inside the cave, Mei Lanyin used a micro water heater to boil a large basin of hot water.
After his son had eaten and drank enough, he took him outside for convenience, then returned to the cave, shaved his head, took a hot bath, put on clean clothes and diapers, and carried him into the rescue cabin.
Before Meilan could finish the rest of the work, the little guy quickly fell asleep again.
Mei Lanyin took out the first aid kit, put medicine on the wound, and felt much better.
The powerful self-healing ability prompts the body's functions to recover quickly.
She climbed up to the inside of the artificial exit at the top of the cave and quietly observed the outside world. Within the range of perception, she found no trace of her opponent and could not detect the smell of poisonous insects.
She speculated that the other party might be staying a few hundred meters upstream, waiting for him to emerge from the water.
She retreated inside and used the satellite phone to send a text message to her husband and A Tao. She turned off the phone regardless of whether it could be received.
He covered the entrance of the cave with soundproof panels again and returned to the cave.
After a busy day, I felt a little tired, so I rolled out the foldable bed and lay down to rest.
With her physique, it doesn't matter if she stays in the river for a night. This little trouble won't affect her at all.
The night passed and dawn came.
The sun is shining outside, dispelling some of the cold.
The lights in the cave are still dim and only objects can be seen.
There were seven people in the tent, and they didn't get out of the tent until the sun was very high. Everyone's face was pale and they were obviously very cold.
Knowing that the weapons had reached the other side of the river, they did not dare to smuggle them over due to the tight defense in Jiangbei, and planned to go to the south bank together.
Jiao Wanda immediately made arrangements. Two mercenaries returned to the market town to purchase supplies to keep out the cold, and two mercenaries went to the south bank to receive weapons and prepare for emergencies.
He acted as a guard while the others packed up their belongings and moved them to a hidden place to avoid being discovered by tourists.
Time passes slowly.
In a hidden place on the south bank, a mercenary held an armor-piercing gun and began to test the accuracy of the sight.
Another mercenary was inspecting a DK47, an APS underwater assault rifle, and a submachine gun, all of which were equipped with silencers.
On the ground, there were 4 grenades, smoke bombs, several powerful concealed weapons, and scattered supplies, etc., so they were well prepared.
These weapons were all temporarily assembled yesterday.
The barbed wire fences and surveillance cameras set up on the river bank are of limited use to mercenaries like them.
What they fear most is the patrol boat 3 kilometers downstream and the nearby sentry post.
Soon, the sound of the patrol boat's motor was heard downstream.
The patrol boat seemed to be searching for something, especially on the water surface where Mei Lanyin, mother and son were missing. It conducted a long scan and continued moving forward after finding no problems.
It turned out that through video surveillance last night, they saw a woman traveling alone. Near the cliff, she suddenly lost her image. After a while, they saw an empty boat floating downstream.
Due to the viewing angle, the fixed-point camera could not capture the entire trajectory, and it was thought that he had lost his footing and fell into the water.
When we arrived at the pier and inquired, we found that no tourists had gone missing. Then we retrieved the video from the pier and found a scene of a woman wearing wide-rimmed sunglasses holding a child on a wooden boat.
I found the owner of the boat and asked, and he was told that he bought the boat to explore along the river.
After calling the call records, it turned out it was a public number, so I had to notify the local department of the situation.
Three days have passed, and there is no movement under the water. Everything is as usual.
The Gu insect did not send any target information, as if nothing had happened.
Jiao Wanda is more vigilant. Based on years of experience, the probability of the target appearing has begun to increase significantly.
During the three days, Xiao Wenwen woke up briefly but had no appetite.
I talked to my mother through the microphone for a while, and then quickly fell asleep again.
Melaine knew that this was a sign of sleep.
As expected, Xiao Wenwen fell asleep all the time, her heart rate gradually decreased, and her mental fluctuations tended to become silent.
All test data show that the human body has entered a plant state.
In the meantime, Mei Lanyin changed her son's diapers twice, and he basically stopped excreting urine after that.
Looking at his son through the observation window, his calm and peaceful expression finally made him feel temporarily relaxed.
Next, she had to go out.
Find out the news from the outside world, confirm A Tao's life and death, and buy some high-protein foods at the same time.
Of course, before going out, you must make all the backup preparations to prevent yourself in case of an accident. Your husband can get the information and organize rescue in time.
The fourth day, 5 o'clock in the morning.
Meilan arranged everything and still went out the same way wearing a non-water-proof suit.
At the place where we entered the water earlier, we were close to the cliff, and with the help of the slanting trees, we quietly emerged from the water.
As soon as she dispersed her mental magnetic field, she sensed the auras of humans and Gu insects. She was startled and hurriedly dived to the bottom of the pool.
A natal Gu discovered her, and after receiving the message from the Jiangtou Master, Jiao Wanda immediately informed the four mercenaries to prepare for the response.
After a while, there was a flapping sound above Mei Lanyin's head.
Under 10 meters of water, blocked by deep water, the two bullets crossed the water line and drilled in front of Melaine, their strength greatly reduced.
Jiao Wanda and the others would not dare to use grenades until it was a critical moment of life and death.
Based on his own mental perception, Mei Lanyin already knew that there were 7 big men on the top of the mountain, and there were also two vaguely hidden biological auras. He judged that among their group, there were 3 surrender masters, and the others were probably mercenaries.
She and Jiao Wanda had fought once in the early years, and this time they met again. They were really enemies.
What she couldn't figure out was how these guys grasped her route and arranged it in advance.
She secretly thought that there should be no major mistakes in the second half of her journey. Could it be that there was an accident at A Tao, or something went wrong with the believers or the boatman? Distraught for a moment.
At this moment, she clearly understood that she had been exposed.
The most important thing is to kill these lingering guys. If we can pry out the whole story from their mouths, the truth will be revealed immediately.
Thinking of this, she decided to return to the cave first and wait until night to start the operation.
At this time, there was a rumble on the water.
The first group of tourists came here by boat for sightseeing.
