Sporadic gunshots continued to be heard throughout the small town. The government troops and police in nearby streets had withdrawn, but the rebels were obviously afraid of being ambushed at night and did not continue to attack. The two were very lucky to seize this golden opportunity. Sneaked back to the China office in Nubia smoothly.
"You can help watch outside and send a signal if there is any enemy, okay?"
"Okay, as soon as possible"
Zhao Wuji knew a little bit of Liu Hong's thoughts through the memory reset skill, so he agreed without hesitation.
Liu Hong came out of the room again with two backpacks and handed one to Zhao Wuji.
"The old Army backpack is more practical than ordinary backpacks. It contains a bulletproof vest and some first aid equipment. It's all your reward."
Zhao Wuji took it without politeness and immediately put on the bulletproof vest.
"Thanks"
"You're welcome. You look like a soldier in temperament, but I heard Dahai say that you have been his classmate since childhood. I don't know where the feeling comes from."
"My grandfather was from the New Fourth Army"
"Ah, ah ha, no need to say, I understand."
The return journey was also quite smooth. The secret whistle heard the secret signal and came out to say
"Brother Liu, so fast?"
"Well, there is a vacuum here for now, but it is estimated that the rebels will come at dawn tomorrow. Although they may not dare to provoke our country, we still need to be careful, especially the weapons must be hidden."
"Brother Hong, don't worry, I was taught these principles when I went abroad."
"Ha, everyone is on the right path. It's just that the older you get, the more timid you become. Unlike this guy Wuji, who is very smart at a young age."
"Brother Hong, if you can praise him, that's great."
"His eyesight is super good, and he can almost see at night. He feels no worse than your Brother Yu."
"So awesome, let's talk to him tomorrow."
"boom"
A burst of fire shot into the sky.
"There was another fire outside the city. It seems that a government helicopter was shot down."
"Well, just keep an eye on me while I take a rest. Xiao Zuo will pick you up later."
"Okay"
Yu Wencheng responded and hid in a relatively safe dark place.
"The leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are here"
Zhao Wuji was woken up by cheers. Just as he remembered, he heard the footsteps of two people walking in.
"Why doesn't Lao Zhang come? Zong Dawei, why can't you say it in public?"
A crying female voice asked.
"Bai Hua, you have to be strong. Lao Zhang was hit in the neck by a stray bullet last night. He died on the spot. He couldn't even say his last words. He just wrote a few words in blood on the ground, telling me to bring you back home safely."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Zhao Wuji instantly heard Mr. Bai's low cry and was even more embarrassed to get up.
"Baihua, my condolences, why are there so many people here?"
"Brother Zong, all Chinese are doing business nearby to make a living. After receiving the news of the evacuation, they gathered here. There are about twice as many people, 123 people. Is there any trouble?"
"As long as they have passports, they are our targets for evacuation. There are seats on the plane back, but this is already an occupied area. It is too difficult to lead such a large team through the line of fire."
“Let’s take a detour”
"Okay, this is the guide provided by the embassy, called Uncle Beard."
"Ah, do you speak Chinese?"
"Yes, I have worked as a cook in your embassy for decades."
"Thank you to the elderly for coming to help."
"You're welcome. We can go directly from the north of the city. There is a desert over there. Once you enter the desert, it will be easier. You are all Chinese. Both sides of the war will give you some face and will not take the initiative to attack."
"Okay, how many days' worth of food do you need to bring?"
"Three days of dry food and water are enough. There is also a small town in the desert. Although it is now controlled by the rebels, it is unlikely that they will attack everyone."
"We just need to go around. We won't enter the town until we have no choice but to do so."
"Then let's set off immediately. Liu Hong and the others have served as soldiers and can help."
"Well, Cheng Lang and I were guided here."
"Everyone, everyone, prepare your items and leave the city in half an hour. Try to form teams according to your own company. The government troops will not attack us, and the rebels will not take the initiative to attack us, so don't panic, as long as As long as you don’t leave the team, your safety is guaranteed.”
"Thank you, leader"
When night fell again, a team of more than a hundred people had left the city and entered the desert along the buffer zone between the armies of both sides.
“I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”
Liu Hong said to Zhao Wuji
"It would be a pity not to take the pilot test because of your boy's eyesight."
"Zhao Wuji, right? You are very good, you have vision and courage."
“Thank you, Leader Zong”
As an extra, Zhao Wuji knows the importance of the protagonist's halo, so he has been following Zong Dawei as an eye.
"I heard that how many people from your construction engineering group won't go back?"
"Well, they got married locally."
"I hope they get through this military disaster safely."
Zong Dawei said casually, and was playing with firewood with Cheng Lang.
"Teacher Zong, is this really useful?"
"It works. My satellite phone is broken. I can only use this primitive method to inform the embassy to pick up in Dirham."
"Ah, teacher, you mean there's no one there yet?"
"Hush, hush, this route is the safest route decided temporarily. Don't shake everyone's military morale. Although there are roads in this desert, it is not easy to walk for three days without the will."
"Teacher, you are lying"
"It's a white lie"
"Can't lie"
Cheng Lang, who had just come out to work, said.
"Now listen to me, this is an order"
Cheng Lang waved his hand and walked away.
Hidden in the darkness, Zhao Wuji understood that it turned out that China's temporary route had not yet been notified to the embassy, and that it needed to be informed in the form of satellite images. It's not a big problem. I don't understand why Cheng Lang is so angry.
The sun came out the next day, and everyone walked on the desert road relatively relaxedly, but Cheng Lang obviously drooped his head, not looking like a leader.
"Cheng Lang, I wonder how old you are?"
"25"
"Well, it's almost the same as me. I overheard the conversation between you and Teacher Zong last night. In fact, even if Diram didn't respond, we can just find a solution when we get there. Why should we be angry?"
"Hmph, it's wrong to lie to people. I must find an opportunity to tell everyone."
"If I tell everyone, everyone will be dissatisfied. If the team is dissatisfied, it will be difficult to lead. Concealing the true situation is sometimes well-intentioned."
"I'm going to say it"
Cheng Lang got angry and was about to shout out loudly. When Zhao Wuji saw that he was going to do something bad, he punched the bull and knocked it out. He turned around and looked at Zong Dawei and said
"I don't even know how you employ people?"
"We originally just came here to go through the formalities and then go back. This situation would not have happened now. But Zhang Ning, who was originally responsible for this work, was gone, so we had to rely on the two of us to do it in this unfamiliar place. It’s good that a young man like Lang, who is traveling far away for the first time, didn’t collapse.”
"Then what should we do now? He just wants to shout out. Once he shouts out, it will be difficult to lead the team."
"Didn't you knock him unconscious? Just let him faint until he reaches dirhams."
"give money"
"No, but I think you are good and I can recommend you to diplomacy."
"Then it's up to you to decide. There's no point in offending someone. He's yours anyway."
"Or this way, you take him and walk slowly for half a day, and I will lead the team and leave first."
"no"
Although this unfamiliar script is not confrontational, without the protagonist's aura, the troubles will increase a lot.
"Then let's go together. Maybe everyone is as understanding as you and nothing will happen."
Zhao Wuji rolled his eyes and was speechless. It seemed that the people in the protagonist's halo were indeed guys who could cause trouble.
"Zhao Wuji, I want to duel with you."
Cheng Lang said angrily when he woke up.
"Come on, I'll give you a hand"
Cheng Lang swept over with a side kick. Wuji originally wanted to use his strength to make this guy eat something stupid, but in the blink of an eye, he pinched Cheng Lang's heel and shook it.
"Click" sound
Cheng Lang's foot bones were dislocated and he fell to the ground.
"Splitting the muscles and breaking the bones? Who are you?"
"good guy"
"Shaolin, Wudang, or Emei?"
"Haha, self-taught"
Cheng Lang screamed in pain on the ground.
Zong Dawei stepped forward and patted him, miraculously helping Cheng Lang regain his position.
"I am a disciple of Wudang lay disciple, but since I started using pistols, I rarely use martial arts."
"I admire you"
Little stars suddenly appeared in Cheng Lang's eyes, and he stopped mentioning the truth and slowly returned to the group, probably preparing to become Zong Dawei's disciple.
Of course everyone is happy that the matter can be resolved in this way.
"Da da da"
A string of bullets hit everyone.
"Chinese friends, don't panic. I am resisting the rebels. Now I want you to express your support for us. I will record the video and keep it in my file. No problem."
Zong Dawei wanted to refuse immediately. After all, this was related to the country's attitude. It was not a good idea to take random photos.
"no problem"
"who are you?"
"I am Zong Dawei from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs"
Zong Dawei's eyes widened as he watched Zhao Wuji pull out his passport like a magic trick.
"Are you from the God of Thieves?"
"Let me handle it. Just don't admit it when you go back."
"OK"
The two exchanged a few words quickly in a low voice.
"Are you Zong Dawei?"
Before the one-eyed dragon of the rebel army could see his passport clearly, Zhao Wuji took it back.
"I'm going to kill you"
One-Eyed Dragon took out a pistol and put it against Zhao Wuji's head.
"hehe"
Zhao Wuji used water magic to sense that there were no bullets in the pistol. Knowing that the other party did not dare to offend China, he said generously
"We are just passing by. It is convenient for others and for our own convenience."
One-Eyed Dragon looked at it again and again, but he still didn't dare to be tough, but he accidentally saw Uncle Beard in the team, pointed his gun and said
"You can leave, but the person who is not yours must stay."
"He is one of ours, I just recognized him as my uncle"
"you,"
The one-eyed dragon was really angry and said
"I want to play roulette with you. Whoever loses will die, otherwise your uncle will stay."
"Okay, come on"
Zhao Wuji used water magic to sense again and knew that there were no bullets in the gun. He understood that the one-eyed dragon was relying on blackmail, so he said fearlessly.
Zong Dawei was so impressed that he almost fell to the ground. It was rare to see such a person who would fight to the death. He would have to work hard to make friends in the future.
"How about you let them go first, I'll stay and play with you slowly, Rebel General"
Zhao Wuji hoped to get out of everyone's sight and completely eliminate this gang of rogues.
The one-eyed dragon thought for a moment and waved his hand.
"Everyone, go away. Our new government doesn't want to cause trouble, but I won't be so lucky if I meet you next time."
Zong Dawei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly led everyone away from the place of trouble.
After walking several kilometers, Zong Dawei asked
"How can you be so brave?"
Zhao Wuji returned the passport to Zong Dawei, and then showed the six bullets.
"Ah, ah haha, awesome"
Zong Dawei has been watching the pistol in the hands of the one-eyed dragon, so he can steal the opponent's bullets, which is simply amazing.
"I'm not a god, I got it from the one-eyed dragon's pocket"
"Ah, ah, you are very powerful. How can you be so fast? Did you ever be a thief before?"
"Tch, I am a talented person, do I need to be a thief?"
"Yeah, that makes sense. I'm almost 40 now and I don't have the skills of a young man like you to separate muscles and bones."
The two were preparing to have a business chat when Cheng Lang interrupted.
"Teacher Zong, if there is no response in Dirham, wouldn't it be a shock to everyone?"
"There are very few ways to get the best of both worlds. If we don't seize the time to leave, in the event of a large-scale shelling by government forces and rebels, we will be increasingly in danger. However, Dirham is an important oil town, and the two sides will not fight to the death there. Fight, and I’m 90% sure that I’ll notify the embassy for help. It’s 90% worth the risk.”
"It's hard to be 100% sure of anything in this world. Even if there's no response from the other side, it's no problem if everyone works together to leave the dangerous area and try to figure out a way out. If you think more about it, you won't be stubborn."
Zhao Wuji also seized the opportunity to act as an old man.
Cheng Lang was hurt by being beaten by Wu Ji. Although he was not convinced in his heart, he was at least convinced in his mouth. He could only think about getting to Dirham to deal with the aftermath.
"You don't have to blame yourself. This kind of thing will happen more and more in your future life. Many times, if you are 70% sure, it's worth the risk."
"Go and comfort Mr. Bai. Her husband Zhang Ning died and she feels very sad. She is also a leader. You can discuss this issue with her when there is no one around."
"OK"
Cheng Lang didn't want to be pressured by Wu Ji, so he just took the opportunity to slip away.
"Brother Wuji, I didn't expect you to be so fierce."
Liu Hong and Yuwen also sat next to Zhao Wuji and said.
Zong Dawei also left to take a look at the surrounding environment.
"It's funny. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. With our great motherland as our backing, many things are easier to handle. But if this kind of thing happened in one of the five standing committee countries, it would probably be that easy to handle."
