Chapter 335: Fierce and Hungry
The three of them lay on their backs on the ground, quietly looking at the white clouds and blue sky above their heads. They shouted below for a long time but no one came to pay attention to them. It seemed that this was a wilderness area with few people.
Gululu, Lao Wang's stomach started to scream in discomfort.
I can't remember how long I haven't eaten, one day, two days? Anyway, I'm so hungry that I can't walk.
"Old Li, do you still remember the Lanzhou ramen restaurant opposite the school?"
"Um."
"Scented beef slices, green coriander, thick curry sauce, and fine and tough ramen..." Lao Wang said this, and couldn't help but suck his saliva. The picture was so tempting, and now his eyes were filled with ramen.
"Lao Wang, do you still remember the little girl selling fried rice downstairs in the dormitory?"
"Remember and remember!"
"Her skills are really unique. The fried egg fried rice shines with an attractive golden color. The eggs evenly wrap each grain of rice. The softness and hardness of the rice are just right. The eggs are neither old nor tender. The fragrance of chopped green onion and the mixed aroma of eggs and rice..." Zi Yang described it, swallowing a mouthful of saliva. The scene was so visually strong. Now his eyes were filled with boxes of pointed egg fried rice.
"Old Li, do you still remember the pickled fish next to the school?"
"Lao Wang, do you still remember the bearded middle-aged aunt who was cooking in the cafeteria?"
"Remember, she scooped a spoonful of braised pork, shook her wrist and the meat was gone, leaving only a spoonful of tofu..."
"Hahaha..." The two of them laughed while talking, slapped the ground weakly with their hands, and tears came out.
"I said, what are you two doing?!" Su Rui sat up with difficulty covering her stomach. She was so hungry that she was dizzy. After these two guys said this, the saliva in her mouth was not secreted enough.
"We are looking at the plums to quench our thirst!"
"I'm cheating on my stomach to think I'm full."
Zi Yang and Lao Wang said a few words, and the two looked at each other. After seeing each other's miserable expressions, they suddenly stopped talking and the smile on their faces disappeared. After a while, Lao Wang started to cry.
"Damn, I never felt so hungry. I would waste another grain of food when I eat. I am a dog!"
Zi Yang lay there looking up at the sky and murmured: "Did I have an illusion? Why do I feel like there is a noodle in the sky?"
Everyone looked up and saw a mountaineering rope slowly hanging from the edge of the cave entrance, swinging slowly in the air.
"Someone!" Su Rui suddenly woke up.
"Come on! Help!" Lao Wang suddenly felt energetic, got up with all his might, stretched out his hands and shouted.
"Shh! Don't shout, fool, what if it's an enemy?" Zi Yang reminded Lao Wang.
Lao Wang was stunned and then said, "I don't care, the enemy admits it. I'll give me a full meal before I die!"
"Help! Come!" Lao Wang knelt there, spreading his hands towards the sky, as if he was holding a summoning ceremony.
After a while, a head suddenly popped out from the edge of the hole: "Is it Lao Wang?"
"You are... Jin Guoqiang!!" After seeing the black face above, Lao Wang screamed excitedly.
"I hang the rope down, can you climb up?" Jin Guoqiang shouted.
"We have been hungry for two days, so how can we have the strength to climb the rope! Throw some food down first!"
"Tie the rope around your waist and we will pull you up!" At this time, another head was poked out next to Jin Guoqiang, and it was Brother Xiaosha.
"Su Rui, you go first." Zi Yang and Lao Wang carefully circled Su Rui's waist and shoulders for a few times. After confirming that they were firm, they greeted him. The rope suddenly tightened and slowly pulled Su Rui up.
Next was Zi Yang. As her body slowly rose, she looked at the water and sand below, Zi Yang was mixed with emotion.
As soon as he returned to the ground, Zi Yang saw that in addition to Jin Guoqiang and Xiaosha Brother, Xiao Hei, Xiaoli, Wang Juan... even the bearded Sharma was there. Although he had only been separated for less than two days, when he saw these familiar faces again, Zi Yang felt like he had been in a trance, and his excited eyes were about to be wet.
The climbing rope was tied to a coconut tree in the distance. Several people were working together to pull the climbing rope. Because they were worried that the edge of the hole would collapse, Jin Guoqiang did not let the others lean over. He carried Zi Yang to a safe place and put it down. Looking at the stains on his face and scratched scars, he frowned and asked, "What happened? After so long, I thought something had happened to you! Why did you appear here?"
"Oh, don't mention it. We can't finish talking about the experience below for three days and three nights!" Zi Yang took the water and jerky handed over by Xiao Hei and started eating it voraciously.
"Captain, why are you here?" Su Rui asked while drinking water.
"Oh, don't mention it, we happened to pass by..." Jin Guoqiang was about to say in detail, and Lao Wang, under the sinkhole, cursed at the top of his throat: "Old Li! Lao Jin! You guys are on the horse..."
Only then did everyone remember that Lao Wang was still hanging down, and Jin Guoqiang hurriedly hung the rope again.
After Lao Wang came up, he didn't bother to say hello to everyone, and snatched water and food from Zi Yang's hand and chewed. Xiaoli touched his head and said with a heartache: Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke, why are you here...
Lao Wang's mouth was stuffed with things, and he couldn't speak to her at all, but he made a few low noises in his throat like a dog.
"Where are we?" Zi Yang turned his head and looked at the dense grass and trees around him.
"We are five kilometers south of Qinhan Village." Jin Guoqiang pointed to a mountain in the distance and said. "There is Qinhan Village there."
"We are only 5 kilometers away?" Lao Wang finally swallowed the things in his mouth, opened his eyes and shouted: "We rolled and crawled underground for a day or two before we walked 5 kilometers?"
This news surprised Zi Yang. It felt that they had traveled at least dozens of kilometers, but they didn't expect to be on the boundary around Qinhan Village.
"The underground structure is complicated, and we may have taken a lot of roads." Su Rui said with emotion. Looking at the wild scene around, he was secretly grateful that if Jin Guoqiang hadn't appeared here, they might have starved to death below.
"Hey, captain, how could you find us? Are we in harmony with each other?" Lao Wang said with a wink at Jin Guoqiang.
After leaving the sinkhole for more than ten meters, the round hole was covered by the lush and tall grass around it. If you hadn't walked in front of you, it would be hard to find that there was another cave below.
Jin Guoqiang glanced at Wang Juan and said, "You have to thank her. It was Wang Juan who found you."
Zi Yang suddenly realized that no wonder there is a humanoid self-propelled radar here! Wang Juan, who was transformed by Professor Zhang, could sense creatures within a hundred meters around her. It is naturally no problem to find three living people.
Looking at Wang Juan with a shy face, Zi Yang was about to say a few words of thanks when a loud noise suddenly came from a distance - everyone looked up and saw that the explosion came from the mountain where Qinhan Village was located.
Jin Guoqiang's face changed and he said worriedly: "They have taken action!"
"They? Who?" Zi Yang asked in confusion.
"Gurkha mercenaries. This morning, two teams of fully armed Gurkha mercenaries suddenly entered Qinhan Village. We went down the mountain just to avoid them. We happened to meet you here."
"Gurkha mercenary?" Zi Yang looked at the bearded Sharma suspiciously, "Are you from your group?"
Sharma was startled and waved his hands repeatedly and said, "It has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me! I don't know they will come. I have been very honest and cooperative these days. If you don't believe me, please ask Brother Jin..."
Jin Guoqiang nodded, "These Gurkha mercenaries are not good, and Sharma recognizes one of the important figures."
"Who? Professor Zhang is here in person?"
Jin Guoqiang shook his head: "It's Wang Yangming!"
Zi Yang gasped. Wang Yangming was a mysterious figure to them than Professor Zhang. What was he going to Qinhan Village in person?
"Go away quickly, why are you still rushing here? Wait for someone to catch me?" Lao Wang patted his butt and stood up. After a large piece of cooked meat was eaten, he became energetic again.
"No!" Zi Yang shook his head and said in a deep thought: "We are going back to Qinhan Village."
"What's the thing?" Lao Wang looked at him with his eyes open and said, "Didn't you listen to Lao Jin? Two teams of people came, and the big devil led the team himself. You go back at this time? Your head is caught in a stone? Go back and die? Lao Jin! Tell me about him!"
Jin Guoqiang looked at Zi Yang with a serious expression: "Old Wang is right. The difference in strength between the two sides is too great. Can you tell me the reason for going back?"
Zi Yang opened his mouth, not knowing where to start, looked at Lao Wang and said, "Did you forget what we saw in the underground palace? Wang Yangming exploded the mountain, which means they might have found a way to enter the underground palace. We must go back and stop him!"
Lao Wang was stunned: "If he wants to go in, just go in. Let those monsters eat it, so I can do it myself!"
"What if they enter the Palace of Eternal Life? What if they find the Nine Dings of King Yu?" Zi Yang said this, not because he wanted to protect the national treasure or something. He did not have such a great sentiment. The only thing he thought in his heart was: such a magic weapon must not fall into the hands of people like Wang Yangming.
Lao Wang looked at everyone with a frown, scratched his head and said, "How about this, let's raise our hands to vote. If you want to go back and face the Gurkha mercenaries armed to the teeth, directly face the dead people. Please raise your hand, want to escape..."
"Vote you big-headed ghost!" Zi Yang interrupted Lao Wang fiercely: "If you want to leave, you will go, I'll go back!" As he said that, he turned around and walked towards Qinhan Village.
Su Rui also got up and followed him. Xiao Hei looked at Lao Wang and ran to catch up with Zi Yang.
After a while, Zi Yang looked back and saw Jin Guoqiang, Lao Wang, Xiaosha Brother, Xiaoli, Wang Juan, Sharma... Everyone followed behind.
