Chapter 69 The White-haired Old Thief (9)

Someone is shooting!
The appearance of the patriarch and his group flashed through my mind. Apart from them, there was no one else in this place.

The gunshots came from the back of the passage, and the three of us were shocked to look back, but the back was so dark that we couldn't even see a ghost.

Brother Wei said hoarsely: "No, it seems that they are here."

I said, "Why do you have so many guns here! It is against the law to own a gun for private use!"

Brother Wei said: "They are all shotguns, and there are old guns from the Anti-Japanese War. There are many wild animals in the deep mountains and old forests, and they hurt people from time to time. It is legal to hold shotguns here."

I said: "Okay, what should I do now, if I run into them..." Before I finished speaking, the doctor responded quickly, and he said: "Listen to the gunshots, they are not far away from us, hurry up .” While speaking, he turned off the lighter and signaled us to move forward in the dark.

Almost the moment we turned off the lighter, the light of the flashlight appeared in the darkness behind us. The light was still some distance away from us, so it could not shine on our side, nor could we see the situation here.

In the darkness, I heard a man's voice say: "Who's over there!" Obviously, we turned off the lighter too late, and the other party discovered our light source.

Accompanied by the sound of drinking, three gunshots followed immediately.

Since we were walking against the wall of the mine and not in the center, the gun missed us, but it still hit the nearby soil and rocks.In the darkness, a burst of soil dregs shaken by the guns fell on our heads and faces.

I cursed secretly, these grandsons shot without saying a word, they knew they were people, but they still killed them like this, it is really cruel and merciless.Who said that people in the mountains are simple?Who says poor people are kind?
When people are poor to a certain extent, they lose even the most basic respect for life.

In the dark, I felt my breathing became heavy, my palms were sweating, and the fear of being shot at any time made my hair stand on end.

At this moment, except for the dim yellow flashlight in the distance, the place I was in was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly. In this situation, even if I wanted to escape, I had to weigh it carefully.

After the group fired, they were probably afraid that we would run away, so they immediately chased us in the direction we were.

Due to the lack of sight, I could only see the leading man, who was thick-backed, holding a flashlight in one hand and a gun in the other.

I saw the guns in their hands, and my scalp was numb with shock. At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out beside me, and pulled me aside violently.

I don't know if it was Brother Wei or Jin Le who pulled me, I thought it was to remind me to run, and when I pulled, I immediately wanted to run, but when I lifted my leg, a hand stretched out from behind me, All of a sudden, he grabbed my neck and dragged me back!

You know, there is clearly a cave wall behind me, so how could I have hands?

Did that hand protrude from the cave wall?
The scene of a zombie hand sticking out from the soil suddenly appeared in my mind. I almost cried out in horror, but before I could make a sound, my mouth was tightly covered by a hand Right after that, I heard the doctor's low voice: "It's me."

Jin Le?

Fuck?Why is he behind my back?

Not only did he appear behind me, but he also pulled me back all the way. During the process of retreating, I felt that the sides of my body were constantly rubbing against the uneven stones.

In an instant, I understood what was going on.

There are many large and small cracks of different depths on both sides of the mine. The doctor would appear from behind me, obviously dragging me into the cracks.

After I realized that there was no need for him to drag it, I immediately nodded my head to express my understanding, the doctor let go of his hand immediately, I immediately turned around, followed him, walked along the crack, and walked deep in the dark.

The shape of the inside of the crack is irregular, and it is not easy to be found hiding in it. Even if we are found, it will be difficult for the other party to shoot us.

This is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

I have to praise the doctor's wit in my heart, and I'm really lucky that he can react so quickly.

Since it was pitch black in front of me, I could only feel the trend of the crack and move forward. The crack was winding, and after walking five or six steps, I turned a big bend again.

After entering this big bend, the doctor lit the lighter again.

In such a curved environment with corners, the light of the lighter cannot penetrate, so we can light the fire with confidence.

The crack extended here to the end, the three of us huddled behind the narrow bend, twisted the only weapon in each hand, held our breath, and listened to the movement outside.

Although the cracks had many bends, they actually didn't extend very deep, and we only walked less than ten steps in total, so the sounds from the outside could be heard very clearly.

That group of people has already run to where we were just now, and the voice of the conversation came in clearly.

"People are gone."

"Running really fast."

"Patriarch, there is a crack here, will it..."

When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat, and I clenched the hammer in my hand.

This is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the opponent has already become murderous. If they really come in, today... I am afraid I will kill someone.

The doctor and Brother Wei also tensed their muscles at the same time. Since we were squeezed together, we could clearly feel each other's tension and vigilance. 】

Immediately afterwards, the patriarch's voice came from outside, the voice was hoarse and deep, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable: "Go and have a look, be careful."

"I know." A man replied, and then, the sound of footsteps came towards the crack where we were.

My heart was pounding, and I raised the hammer in my hand, and my blood boiled all over my body.

At this moment, I was ready to fight or even kill.

However, just as the sound of footsteps came, there was another exclamation from outside: "It has appeared!" Following this exclamation, the footsteps that had just approached us quickly withdrew, followed by a group of There were sounds of people shooting and running, as if they had found some prey.

Appeared?What happened?
The gunshots and footsteps quickly moved away, and the three of us looked at each other in a narrow space, not knowing what was going on for a while.

Those people said before that they wanted to make a fortune, but now that they think about it, they came for this jade mine, but what were they chasing just now?Is there something else out there?
After the sound faded away, the three of us walked out of the crack.
