Indiana Jones

Chapter 319 Crossing the Highway (08)

No one thought that they came to a place that even the old horse was not familiar with. Although this was a bit unexpected, it was not unexpected after thinking about it. After all, it is impossible for such a big mountain old horse to be familiar with all the places. They went all the way down the river, and it was normal for them to rush out of the range of the old horse.

Lao Ma added: "However, I can still tell the direction and know which way to go. It will not be too difficult to live in a place I am more familiar with, but it will take time."

"Our primary goal now is to get rid of the devils." Si Xuanyi is not worried about his own situation, "Then we will consider going to the meeting point. Now the distance between us and the enemy has been widened, but we are not sure whether it is true or not. The enemy has been shaken off, let's move on."

"We have deviated quite far from the original route." Lao Ma said, "If this continues, I can't guarantee when I will return to the original route, let alone when I will reach the destination."

"It doesn't matter..." Si Xuanyi looked at Yu who had become smaller and said, "Now we are only thinking about how to get rid of the person, otherwise it will be futile to think about other things. We must first solve this worry."

"We can only continue to drill into the forest and walk in the direction we should go. I guess I will find a way to get back to the original route after climbing over two mountains." The old horse looked at the time, "Even if the Japanese army moved at the fastest speed It will take about two hours to catch up, if we don't notice anything wrong within the next two hours, then I will take you to the meeting point."

"Okay, we don't have time to rest, let's go." Si Xuanyi took a deep breath, "We haven't arrived in Nanjing yet, we have encountered so many troubles, it seems that this trip is really not that simple."

"I hope things are not transported away during this process, otherwise we will really be in trouble." The farmer said with some concern.

After discussing while walking, they found that it was not impossible but difficult for the Japanese to find them. They did use this river to create a sufficient distance. The enemy could not determine their whereabouts in a short time. It is quite beneficial.

"Now the most difficult thing for the enemy to determine is our landing location. They have to search along the two banks to find it. This is quite time-consuming, so it is unlikely that they will find us in a short time." Very confident.

While talking, several people headed south all the way, correcting their direction under the leadership of the old horse. After being washed by the river along the way, the smell on their bodies has been relieved a lot, and they also used the water to rub their bodies. It can be said that it is already very clean, but they can still smell the smell. At first they thought it was the smell left on their clothes and bodies, but later they discovered that the smell was imprinted on them. In their minds, that nightmarish experience is hard to forget, and the taste is imprinted in their memory.

"It's estimated that I won't be able to eat for three days." Zhao Chenggong smells that way now.

"It's fine if you can't eat, save food." The farmer drank two sips of water, "It's time to eat, and I've vomited up. I'm thirsty and hungry along the way."

"Can you eat it?" Zhao Chenggong raised his eyebrows.

"Eat it or not." Li Siming turned out a box of canned meat, which was taken from the old horse's hiding place. Almost all the food they brought before was lost because it was soaked in corpse water. I didn't even have the courage to eat it.

"Why do I still want to vomit?" Zhao Chenggong started to feel sick when he heard about eating.

"This stuff is not bad, and it can be considered a delicacy now. Although it's not serious meat, at least there are some leftovers of meat." Li Siming pried it open with a knife, "If you can get a pot and add some water to boil it, it will definitely taste delicious. That’s right, now I really miss the canned wild vegetable soup we ate at Savage Mountain, but it’s a pity that Agui is gone.”

"Climb up the ridge and eat again. Let's find a place to rest." The old horse looked at the terrain and said, "I'll also correct the direction by the way."

In fact, this mountain ridge is not far away from them. They ran up in less than half an hour, and they stopped at a place that was covered by wind and rain. Because it was a short rest, it was impossible to light a fire, let alone wet it. Dry your clothes.

"I'll check the situation." The old horse looked at the sky, turned around and climbed to a tree on the top of the slope.

"Let's go after eating." Si Xuanyi also took out the food. In fact, she couldn't eat it either, but he knew he couldn't do it without eating. He would have no energy to walk without eating. Now his legs were as if they were filled with lead and it was difficult to lift them up.

"You guys eat first..." Zhao Chenggong's stomach churned again, don't mention eating down, it would be good if he didn't spit it out.

"Can't make a fire, I hate it." Zhao Chenggong took off his wet clothes and wrung them dry, then squatted shirtless on the ground and looked at his food. If you don't eat, you'll be so hungry, if you eat, you can't swallow it, it's very messed up Tangled.

"If you don't eat now, no one cares about you if you can't walk in the future." Si Xuanyi said to Zhao Chenggong, "It's not that you haven't seen the scene, what kind of dead people haven't seen it, as for you?"

"I've seen a lot, but I haven't gotten into it, let alone swam in it." Zhao Chenggong turned pale when he said it, "Seeing and touching are two different things, okay?"

Si Xuanyi felt sick to his stomach when he heard him say that, and what this kid said was right, indeed, not many people had the opportunity to swim in it.

"Okay, that matter is over, don't mention it." The farmer's face was a little ugly, obviously he also remembered the experience just now, and felt very uncomfortable. He didn't want to think about it, let alone mention it.

"Brothers, there is bad news." The old horse came down from the top in a hurry, "The enemy is coming."

This surprised everyone. They immediately rushed to the top of the slope, climbed up the tree and followed the old horse's guidance to observe the situation there. Sure enough, they found Japanese troops appearing in the direction of the river. These Japanese troops went down the river on bamboo rafts. Not many, but there are dozens of people.

"They transported people to both sides of the strait in batches. They should arrange a group of people at intervals. According to this speed, they will soon find out where we are going." Lao Ma said.

"It seems that we have underestimated these Japanese. Their movements are much faster than expected." Si Xuanyi frowned and said, "How long will it take for them to catch up with us?"

The old horse thought about it for a while: "They brought a dog. If it is slow, it will be more than an hour, and if it is fast, it will be half an hour."

"Grandma, you're following so closely, let's go, it seems that there is no rest." Zhao Chenggong said dejectedly.

"Let's go!" Si Xuanyi got down from the tree, "Go at full speed and leave this bird place."

Things started to develop in a direction they didn't want to face again. It might not be so easy to get out, but that didn't mean they had no chance to get rid of the enemy's pursuit.

In this way, they started running all the way again, specifically drilling into the depths of the mountains, where the trees had big roots, deep mountains, high forests and dense forests. They knew that the enemy's speed would be very fast under the leadership of the military dogs, so they could only use their speed To make up for this shortcoming, but it also consumes a lot of energy for them.

"Crossing the mountain in front, I can find the way before." The old horse pointed to a big mountain ahead and said as he ran, "It's not a bad thing for us to go back to the regular route, as long as we are overtaken Just meet our people before. If our people can take you back to the city, then these Japanese will have nothing to do with you. Even if the whole city is under martial law, they may not be able to find you, but we probably don’t have that much time. It won’t be long before they go on like this before they will be caught up.”

"So what if we arrive? Is the person in charge still there? We are almost two days late, have they already evacuated?" Li Siming asked.

"No, they will wait there until they are notified by their superiors. Now is the age of war, we will encounter a lot of troubles, and there will be a lot of variables, so they know how to deal with this situation. If the superiors do not notify They, they will not leave, unless the joint site has been exposed or is under the control of the Japanese army, otherwise they will not leave." The old horse is still very sure of this.

"I hope it's as you said." Si Xuanyi didn't seem to believe what he said too much, but he had no choice now, let's talk about it after arriving at the scheduled location, and then think about other things. At worst, they will go to Nanjing by themselves, although there is no one to lead the way and Escorts are troublesome, but there are some things you can't rely on others.

"They are approaching, we have to speed up." Lin Feng said from behind, "I can hear the barking of dogs much closer than before, they may have started to outflank us in groups, more enemies may have appeared near us, and even some Maybe the enemy has already circled in front of us. Of course, this possibility is unlikely, but it does exist, so we can only compete with them; is there a place where we can go but dogs can't?" The last sentence was asked by Lao Ma .

"What does this mean?" Zhao Chenggong didn't understand, "Can't dogs walk the road that people walk?"

"Well..." The old horse pondered for a moment, and finally said, "We can only climb the cliff, which can slow down the progress of people. They need dogs to guide the way, but dogs can't climb cliffs, so they can Slow down their progress to a certain extent, but the premise is to find a suitable cliff for us to climb, but it is not easy in a hurry, we can only find some relatively complex terrain to walk, after all, many people can go up Dogs can’t go anywhere.”

"Okay then, let's do as you said." Si Xuanyi thought for a while, and finally nodded, "But we must ensure that we will not slow down the progress because of this matter, otherwise we will lose more than we gain."

The old horse nodded and said: "Don't worry, I know this in my heart. Although it will slow down the progress, the progress of the people who will be delayed is definitely more than ours."

So they started to find some places with deep ridges and ravines, including some ponds, muddy ponds and steep hillsides. In short, some difficult places to walk. These places are nothing to humans, but to dogs. It is relatively not that easy. At the same time, Lin Feng also made use of these complicated environments to make some traps, such as falling rocks on the slope, and some ejection traps in the forest. In short, they are doing their best to cause trouble for the enemy. This kind of place is also very exhausting, after all, the road is more difficult than before.

"There are few of them, can we fight?" Zhao Chenggong didn't eat anything at first, and he couldn't bear to run like this. He really couldn't run anymore.

"Have you... started thinking about fighting them hard?" Li Siming asked panting.

"What I mean is... if we can kill them or disable them, we won't have... this worry, and we don't have to run so tired." Zhao Chenggong said.

"Put your thoughts away. The enemy is coming from several directions. Once we start a war, our exact location will be exposed, and several enemy search teams will come from all directions." Lin Feng said, "This is different from the previous one." It's a completely different situation with an ambush."

"Speaking of this, where did you go after that?" Li Siming asked.

"After dealing with the remaining ten or so little devils for a while, it's a pity that they couldn't kill them all. Three of them ran away, and then I followed the traces you left behind, but I couldn't find them when I arrived at the devil's camp. You, but I can tell that you want to cross the highway, so I came here first during the night, and I planned to wait here for a day, but I didn't expect you to come here too quickly." Lin Feng said lightly.

Although what they said is very simple, others can hear what he has experienced. It is nothing to Lin Feng to say that killing a few devils in the forest, but how did he pass through those two camps? of?How to cross the tightly blocked road?They took huge risks and experienced things that they will never forget in their entire life before they got to the passage of that highway. Ke Feng, this kid actually ran over so casually. If they were with Lin Feng at the beginning, maybe they would have come here It would be easier, but thinking about it another way, I don't think it would be that simple. After all, they are not as perverted as Lin Feng. Maybe Lin Feng is only suitable for acting alone, and being with them will slow him down. If he is alone , probably jumped out of the encirclement of the enemy a long time ago. After careful consideration, they actually found themselves a drag on him. This is really a bit helpless.

"Well, no matter what, without you, we may not be able to pass the last level. If we are discovered by the enemy's secret sentry, we may not even have a chance to escape. Now we have fallen into the enemy's encirclement and have no chance at all. Facing the current situation, no matter what you say, it’s all thanks to you.” Si Xuanyi said, “If you were on your own, wouldn’t you have left this place long ago? I mean, you should have jumped out of the enemy’s encirclement, or Said to get rid of the enemy's pursuit."

"Hmph..." Lin Feng sneered, "If it's just me, it's impossible to fall into such a situation. The enemy doesn't even have a chance to find me..."
