"How is this possible!" Chen Tao looked at Ye Rong in surprise, "Didn't you say Tatunaan is gone?"
"I don't know either, but look at the masks on their heads. That's the rat god mask on the faces of the Tatunaan guards!"
The two sides continued to exchange fire in the distance. Chen Tao and the other three were hiding behind the mound, not knowing what to do next.
"Holy shit, where is Haozi?" Chen Tao turned around and found that Haozi was missing. He looked around and searched.
Scanning the sand dunes not far away, Chen Tao's eyes nearly popped out. Haozi ran over at some point and was lying next to the two dead minions with a big beard, pulling the equipment from the corpses.
"Holy crap! Haozi, come back quickly!"
At this time, they were in the middle of the group of rat-faced masked men and bearded men. A single move from either side could kill the three of them.
Looking at Haozi in the distance, Chen Tao couldn't help but feel angry. This kid was really like a rat, walking out whenever he could!
The two of them raised their rifles and stared at each other, watching in fear as Haozi took out a lot of things from the two corpses, wrapped them in a big robe from the corpses, and dragged them back.
The two waves of people in the distance fought fiercely, but no one noticed. Haozi grabbed the big cloth bag, with a rifle hanging on his shoulder, and jumped quickly in the darkness. I have already walked back blindly.
"Haozi, you damn girl, can you stop making trouble like this all the time!" Chen Tao suppressed his voice and burst into anger.
"Look at how cowardly you are!" Haozi smacked his lips disapprovingly, "Success can be found in the smallest details, and wealth can be found in the dangers! You kid, just think of how to thank me!"
After that, he opened the cloth bag wrapped in the clothes, and there were a lot of things stuffed inside. There were bullets and magazines, some simply packaged dried meat, two large water bladders, and even a flat iron kettle as big as a palm.
Chen Tao picked it up and smelled it, and it turned out to be a bottle of wine!
"Right now, we have no equipment, no food, no appetite. How do you say that? We have no guns or cannons, the enemy made them for us! Don't dislike it, in a place like this, survival is the most important thing! "
The three of them divided their things and hid behind the mound with their rifles in hand.
"What should we do next? The maze is so big. If you enter hastily, you will probably be trapped. The two waves of people are fighting again over there. We have to think of a countermeasure!" Ye Rong asked.
"When the clams fight, the fisherman wins. Let them fight first, and when they both lose, we'll give them a try!" A hint of cunning flashed in Haozi's eyes.
"No..." Chen Tao shook his head, "They won't give us that chance. Even if we fight to the death, a camel with skinny hands is bigger than a horse. We are no match for any of them. "
After a pause, Chen Tao continued: "I was wondering why those people wearing masks wanted to save us. Ye Rong, do you know them?"
Ye Rong shook her head: "I can't understand it just like you. I came out alone this time. I have never seen those people before."
"Don't panic, enemy
Our enemies are our friends. I think we can try to cooperate with them! "Chen Tao glanced at the two of them.
"I'm telling you, Master Chen, you've been with Uncle Long for a long time, and you're becoming more and more like Uncle Long, right?" Haozi nodded in agreement.
On the other side, the bearded men and the masked men were in a stalemate. The two sides used the natural mounds around the city as cover and kept shooting at each other. It gradually turned into a war of attrition.
Suddenly, the bearded man's rough roar came from the darkness. Although they were speaking in ancient languages, Chen Tao and the others could understand it with Ye Rong translating.
"Ballohard!" The bearded man yelled, "Why are you helping those bastards!"
"Oulanke, I'm not helping anyone. You should leave here immediately. No one is allowed to enter the Holy City!"
"Hmph, a bunch of slaves who have subjugated their country, they really think you are the guardian angels!"
"I'm warning you Oulenke, leave here, I can let you go, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Barohard, you can't stop us, he's already here! Tatunaan's end is coming!"
The bearded man cursed loudly and withdrew into the lost city with his men. Chen Tao was horrified as he listened to their conversation. Are these people really Tatunaans?
"Chen Tao, be careful!"
While still thinking in his mind, Ye Rong suddenly heard a scream in his ears, and then he saw a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and a ghastly long knife had already slashed towards Chen Tao's neck.
Clang! ! !
Chen Tao didn't even think about it. His body reacted completely out of instinct, and he drew out the short knife and blocked it.
The blades collided, causing a scream. Before Chen Tao had time to react, he drew the long knife and cut diagonally towards Chen Tao's shoulder.
Clang! ! ! Clang! ! !
The castration knife disappeared. Chen Tao looked up and saw a figure flashing out from behind the mound. The blade of the knife flipped and struck him again.
At this time, Chen Tao's mind went blank, and only the shining long knife remained in his eyes. Not knowing where his reaction came from, he held the short knife in his hand and faced him straight forward.
Clang! ! ! Clang! ! !
After blocking several knives, Chen Tao found an opportunity to follow the man's force and dodge.
The sword was so fierce and powerful that Chen Tao's tiger's mouth was almost cracked by the shock. He stepped back one after another, and the dagger in his hand even kept buzzing.
Whoosh whoosh!
Seeing Chen Tao suddenly in trouble, Haozi on the side reacted and raised his hand to see three spikes. In the darkness, the man swung his knife like the wind. He only heard three crisp sounds and he caught them all!
Haozi supported Chen Tao who was retreating. At this time, Ye Rong also reacted, raised his rifle and fired.
Ta da da da da...
The man's reaction was not slow. When he saw Ye Rong fired, he rolled on the spot and hid behind the mound. The bullet hit the mound, sending gravel and soil flying everywhere.
"Holy crap, who is this?" Chen Tao rubbed his aching right hand, being protected by Hao Zi and Ye Rong.
"Sock, come back!"
The three of them were on alert.
I heard a man's deep voice coming from the darkness, and then there were flames all around. Men in white holding torches and wearing rat-head masks gathered around from behind the mounds.
It was as if they had just stepped out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den. Chen Tao and the other three looked at the crowd around them. They all raised their rifles and watched them warily.
"What do you want to do!" Chen Tao shouted.
"The reaction is very fast. There are not many people who can take so many knives from Suoke."
While talking, a man walked out of the crowd. He was tall and muscular. He was also wearing a gray-white robe. The difference was that his mask was silver. There was a layer of black light shining in the light of the torch. There were rat teeth on the mask. It was ferocious, with only one pair of eyes exposed, which looked very scary.
You don't need to think about it to know that this person must be the leader of this group of people.
The man walked out of the crowd, looked at Chen Tao and the others, and asked, "Who are you and what is your relationship with Oulenke!"
"It doesn't matter!" Chen Tao's eyes turned cold, "Why did you save us?"
"Ha..." The man smiled, "It is my job to protect this place. I am not trying to save you."
"Is the legend true?" Ye Rong said at this time, "Are you the guardians of Tatunaan, the descendants of the Prince of Ulster's guard?"
The man was noncommittal and turned to look at Ye Rong, "You know a lot."
Then he circled around Chen Tao and the other three, "You are also here for Tatunaan. Get out of here, or die!"
Seeing that this group was not as ferocious as Big Beard's group, Chen Tao waved his hand towards Haozi and the others, signaling them to put down their guns.
"We are not here for Tatunaan, I am here to save people!"
"Save people?" The man shook his head, "No matter what your reason is, you can't even step foot here."
"Then why did Oulang Ke go in?" Chen Tao was a little unconvinced.
"It's impossible for them to get out of the lost city alive." The man turned around, "I don't want foreigners to pollute the Holy City. I'm warning you for the last time, get out of here!"
"What if we can help you stop him?" Ye Rong suddenly said. "You know what I'm talking about."
The man looked at Ye Rong and didn't speak for a long time.
"Why should I trust you?"
"Just rely on him." Ye Rong pointed at Chen Tao.
"You?" The man in the silver rat mask glanced at Chen Tao.
"He is Chen You's grandson."
"What!" The man was obviously startled, "It's their descendants!"
Chen Tao listened at a loss and had no idea what Ye Rong and this weirdo were talking about.
At the same time, he also confirmed his previous speculation.
Ye Rong, this woman, really didn't tell the truth!
The masked weirdo didn't say anything for a long time and kept pacing on the ground. After a long time, he finally spoke.
"Okay, I'll take you in!"
The man took off his mask, and Chen Tao looked at the man's face. He had dark skin, firm eyes, and a beard on his mouth.
"My name is Balohad, the commander of the guards."
"Chen Tao."
Balohad
He nodded and shouted to the group of people behind him, and those people dispersed.
"The Lost City is guarded by the undead. You must not pass through the Lost City at night. You have to wait until the sunrise to enter." Balohad said to Chen Tao and others: "I can take you into the Holy City, but you must listen carefully. , absolutely cannot take anything away from it, otherwise, we will all die!"
Chen Tao nodded. Although he also knew that there were countless treasures in Tatunaan, he was more worried about Uncle Long's safety than these things.
Currently unable to enter the maze, a group of people can only rest on the spot and wait for tomorrow's sunrise.
"Have you ever seen these people?" Chen Tao took out a photo from his backpack and handed it to Balohard.
Balohad took the photo and looked at it for a long time, pointed at a person in the photo and said: "This person, I know where he is!"
