The feeling of not being able to control one's own life and death is truly unpleasant.

The reason he trusted Lin Beichen so much was because Lin Beichen had once saved him from a bloody disaster and was a highly skilled person. If it were anyone else, Wang Baozi would never have agreed to such a thing.

In truth, everyone felt some sympathy for Wang Baozi.

Yu Feng walked over to Wang Baozi, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Everyone has their own expertise, it's normal that you're not good at these things."

"Don't have too much of a mental burden. Trust your brother. I promise to get you back alive."

"As long as I'm here, I will never let you die. I'll bet ten years of my life on this promise."

As soon as Yu Feng said this, the slightly stiff atmosphere instantly eased a lot.

But Wang Baozi felt increasingly unreliable, thinking: You're betting ten years of your lifespan on my safety?

Can you be a little more reliable when you talk?
It's precisely because you said that I'm even more worried!

Just as Wang Baozi was about to speak up and explain, he unknowingly inhaled too much of the drug, his consciousness began to blur, and his eyelids became increasingly heavy.

I fell into a dazed state.

The next moment, Wang Baozi collapsed to the ground with a thud.

The group looked at each other in dismay, and then one by one they collapsed to the ground.

Wang Baozi really did faint; there's no doubt about that.

Everyone else except him was faking being unconscious.

The various ways the people fainted created a highly realistic effect. With such acting skills, coupled with the confidence of the two outside that they had drugged the people, there was absolutely no chance of anything going wrong.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Outside the cave, Kasuga Aozora and Shinno Mirai had been waiting impatiently for some time.

But to ensure that nothing went wrong, the two remained hidden in the snow for a long time.

They didn't take any action until their bodies were almost frozen solid.

"No problem, right? At this dosage, even the strongest body can't withstand it. I don't believe they're stronger than oxen; this dosage should be enough to take down at least ten oxen," said Kasuga Aozora.

Upon hearing this, Shinno Mirai, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but purse her lips.

He said to Kasuga Aozora somewhat impatiently, "I already said there was no problem, but you insisted on waiting for so long. I'm really fed up with you. Don't call me out for something like this again."

He was utterly speechless at his good friend's behavior.

Shinno Mirai initially wanted to rush over to check on the situation, but since the drug had already been administered, waiting so long seemed unnecessary. However, Kasuga Aozora insisted on being absolutely certain, so they waited and waited, until now.

Now that the spring sky is clear again and he is saying these things, how can he not be angry?

"Enough with the nonsense, let's get started. I'm doing this for our own lives. Better safe than sorry, don't you know? It's never a bad thing to be careful. We're losing time, but that's better than losing our lives," said Kasuga Aozora.

What he said does make some sense.

Faced with such a statement, Shinno Mirai couldn't really refute it.

That's right, preserving your life is the most important thing.

Although this approach is somewhat extreme, it can't be wrong.

Therefore, Shinnokami chose to wait.

If Kasuga Aozora's words were completely unreasonable, then Shinno Mirai certainly wouldn't stay put with him. The sound of their footsteps grew closer; they were preparing to act.

At the same time, Lin Beichen and the others were speechless.

They waited for about 15 minutes, but the two men outside still hadn't come in. Was this excessive caution? Was it really necessary? It was completely unnecessary.

They've already drugged her, what could possibly go wrong?
Furthermore, with their skills, dealing with ordinary people would be no problem at all. Kasuga Aozora and Shinno Mirai genuinely didn't consider Lin Beichen and his group as real enemies; they simply saw them as prey, as a group of hikers on vacation. Facing ordinary people like this, a direct confrontation would be entirely within their capabilities.

"I never expected the people of Japan to be so timid."

"Sigh, what a waste of emotion, what a waste of my acting skills." Yu Feng breathed a sigh of relief as he listened to the approaching footsteps. Acting wasn't difficult for him, but acting for thin air was still incredibly boring for him.

The boots crunched and stomped on the snow.

It could be heard that the two people outside were not moving very fast.

There's really no need to be so cautious at this point.

They've already waited so long, Lin Beichen and the others aren't in a hurry for even a little while longer.

At this point, they were already considering whether to arrest and interrogate the two men directly. Plans never keep up with changes, and pretending to be captured against such a weak enemy was truly difficult.

"Do you think we should just arrest them?"

"Given the current situation, it's really difficult to fake being arrested by them."

"I'm afraid they'll throw me off the mountain during the transport."

The group exchanged glances, revealing their shared thoughts.

Believe it or not, this concern could actually come true.

The terrain of the Kunlun Mountains is inherently rugged and difficult to traverse, and no one can predict what might happen at any moment. To ensure their personal safety, they had no choice but to temporarily change their plans.

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to Wang Baozi standing to the side.

Wang Baozi has fallen into a coma.

The reason he fell into a coma was obvious: to avoid giving himself away while feigning unconsciousness. But in this situation, there's absolutely no need to continue pretending to be unconscious.

Unfortunately, Wang Baozi had already fallen asleep.

It won't be easy for him to come to his senses.

He can only wake up from his coma after the effects of the medication wear off.

However, this isn't a major problem; the operation will proceed without Wang Baozi. It might be safer for Wang Baozi to sleep here, but ultimately someone has to stay behind.

Of course, we can discuss this issue later.

The most important thing now is to prepare an ambush for the two enemies who enter the cave.

Neither of them showed any sign of tension. They had no fear of the two approaching enemies; in fact, they were somewhat looking forward to it.

I eagerly await the fascinating expression on the enemy's face.

As soon as Kasuga Aozora and Shinno Mirai entered the cave, they were immediately dumbfounded.

According to their expected course of events, the people in the cave should have all fallen unconscious. But that wasn't the case at all; the people in the cave were sitting there perfectly fine, eating their dry rations.

Everything seems normal; there doesn't seem to be a problem. But the fact that there's no problem is the biggest problem.

At this moment, even the clear blue sky of spring was wondering if it hadn't administered the medicine properly.

To avoid embarrassment, he subconsciously waved in greeting, but dared not speak in the Chinese language. He dared not speak, afraid that if he did, he would reveal that he was not Chinese. There were five people on the other side, one of whom seemed to be asleep.

There were six people in total. Even if the two of them were very confident in their skills, they weren't sure if they could handle six people.

"Ha ha--"

"Hey hey hey."

The two men grinned foolishly, trying to get away with it.

They were laughing as they prepared to leave.

Their idea was simple: they just wanted to go back and find help.

If two people try to take action, they are very likely to fail, and the result of failure would be to alert the enemy.

This is no longer a question of whether or not to capture the experimental subjects.

The problem has now become so serious that it could determine the success or failure of their entire plan.

If these people leave this place and tell others about what happened here, it will inevitably attract the attention of some interested parties. If the eyes of the Chinese people are drawn to the Kunlun Mountains, then they will be the culprits for the failure of this plan.

Kasuga Aozora and Shinno Mirai cannot bear such a heavy responsibility.

At this moment, they were filled with panic and deep regret.

In such a situation, you should call more people over instead of acting so rashly.

But they hadn't expected that they, as the prey, wouldn't be successfully captured. How did these people manage to evade the poison they had just released? Where did things go wrong?

They simply couldn't understand where things had gone wrong.

To ensure success, they were extremely careful.

It's impossible for such a basic mistake to occur during the administration of the medication.

"Since you're already here, why not come in and talk? You think you can just leave like this? Do you really consider this a place where you can come and go as you please?"

"Heh, those scoundrels from Japan."

"They dared to cause trouble on our Chinese soil, but now they don't have the guts."

A cruel smile curled at the corner of Yu Tian's mouth. Without hesitation, he pulled out a pistol and fired two shots, the two bullets hitting precisely in front of the two men's feet as they were about to walk.

The bullet struck the ground, kicking up a layer of dirt.

This really terrified the two people from Japan.

They never expected these people to dare to make a direct move.

Shouldn't people be more discreet when traveling abroad? Why are the Chinese so "humorous"? Greeting each other with a gun right away—isn't that a bit inappropriate? Doesn't it seem a bit out of character for China, a land of etiquette? Isn't there an old Chinese saying, "Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?" How did things turn out like this? This really puzzled the two of them.

They had actually anticipated that these people would possess firearms.

How could someone who dares to travel to the Kunlun Mountains not carry some weapons?
It was precisely because they had taken this into account that they prepared by administering the medication in advance.

Therefore, they chose to retreat only after seeing that the people in the cave were unaffected by the drugs they had administered. It wasn't that they didn't want to act, but rather that they were unsure of their success. If they didn't act, they still had a chance to escape; if they did, they would completely break off relations.

That's precisely why they acted this way.

But now the plans have far outpaced the changes.

The two dared not go any further; their backs were already in the enemy's hands, and if they continued, they might die.

Just now they might have had a sliver of a chance to fight back, but now it's tantamount to completely giving up that chance. Their faces were grim, so dark they looked like they could drip water.

"Yu Tian, ​​you can speak Mandarin in Sakura, right? I'll leave the rest to you."

Lin Beichen said to Yu Tian.

He didn't intend to personally interrogate the two henchmen.

He naturally understood some of the Japanese language, but he didn't want to waste his breath on these two kids. Yu Tian and Zhang San were sent by their superiors to assist him, so naturally he couldn't let them do nothing; he had to find them something to do to repay their kindness.

Yu Tian had wanted to say this for a long time.

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's question, he immediately nodded.

"I know a little bit, I know a little bit, I wouldn't call myself an expert, but I can still have normal communication without any problems." Yu Tian was quite proud of himself, but his words were full of humility.

He even glanced at Yu Feng out of the corner of his eye.

Since the two are from the same family, they naturally wanted to have a good comparison.

Yu Feng, standing to the side, also felt the gaze directed at him by Yu Tian.

Faced with Yu Tian's attempt to show off, Yu Feng simply ignored him. He admitted that Yu Tian was slightly better than him in some aspects, but he wouldn't back down either.

So what if Yu Tian is stronger than me?

Am I really that bad?
Just kidding, I've traveled all over the country with Brother Lin Beichen, risking my life.

He's seen it all, and his combat experience is far beyond what Yu Tian could ever imagine.

Yu Feng thought to himself, and as he thought about it, he felt like he could do it again.

In fact, he was right. In other aspects, Yu Tian might indeed be better than Yu Feng. But in actual combat and various combat experiences, Yu Tian couldn't compare to him.

This has nothing to do with personal ability; it's mainly related to personal experience.

As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise! Not everyone can be as proficient in everything as Lin Beichen. If an ordinary person wanted to learn Taoist arts, they wouldn't have so much time to travel around, let alone carry out various difficult missions.

The art of divination alone is enough to consume a person's entire life's energy to study.

Next, Yu Tian demonstrated his diplomatic skills. It was clear that Yu Tian was in control during the conversation with the two people, while the two Japanese could only nod and agree.

Of course, the main reason Yu Tian was able to negotiate so smoothly was because they held an absolute advantage. The confidence to negotiate stems from strength, and that is the key to successful negotiation.

Kasuga Aozora and Shinno Mirai are indeed people of principle.

However, when faced with the imminent threat to their lives, they would still give it serious consideration.

Should one choose to die rather than surrender, or to live a life of dishonor? Even if one chooses to die rather than surrender, will one's comrades do the same? The likely outcome is that one dies while one's comrades survive.

The two of them shared similar thoughts.

The final result was obvious: the two chose to give in.

"You guys are smart enough to know what's good for you. There's an old Chinese saying: 'Those who understand the times are the heroes.'"

To get the two to cooperate as much as possible, Yu Tian even said something conciliatory.

However, his words did not seem to have much effect.

Kasuga and Aozora did indeed give in, but they still looked half-dead.

They don't believe they have no chance of survival.

But they felt it was shameful. (End of Chapter)
