Fast Travel Absurdity Sutra
Chapter 231: The Great Battle in the Capital (11)
After Cang Zhi and the other two finished their discussion in the cave, Cang Zhi and Ju Yelang sorted out their clothes and hurried towards Liujia Village. They planned to go to the village chief Liu Changsheng to get a letter of introduction tomorrow.
Jiro-kun stayed in the cave and continued to guard it.
Many important spy materials such as weapons and radios are hidden in the cave.
As the footsteps of the two gradually faded away, only Jiro-kun's light breathing could be heard in the cave.
Lantian emerged quietly from its hiding place like an agile black panther.
Her figure moved like a ghost in the dim cave, approaching Jiro-kun silently.
Jiro-kun was completely unaware of the approaching danger and was currently sorting through the documents in his hands.
Lantian suddenly attacked, her movements were swift and precise, and she slashed Jiro-kun's neck with a palm.
Jiro-kun felt a black screen before his eyes, and his body fell limply to the ground.
Lantian quickly helped him up and took out a Zhongxin Pill from her arms. This pill emitted a strange light and was the secret weapon in her hand.
She pried open Jiro-kun's mouth and fed him the Heart Pill.
After a moment, Jiro-kun slowly opened his eyes, and the cunning and sinister look in his eyes disappeared, replaced by absolute obedience and awe of Lantian.
"Master, Jiro-kun is willing to obey your orders."
His voice was low and hoarse.
Lantian nodded with satisfaction and whispered, "From now on, you will be the nail I planted among them. Report their every move to me in a timely manner."
Jiro-kun nodded quickly, his eyes full of loyalty.
At the same time, Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun had arrived at the home of village chief Liu Changsheng.
Liu Changsheng is a simple and honest middle-aged man. He looked at the two people in front of him with a hint of doubt in his eyes:
"You two are suddenly going out and even need a letter of introduction. Where are you going?"
Liu Jun smiled and said, "Village Chief, a distant relative of ours is in trouble in the mountains and wants us to go and help."
As he spoke, he handed over the prepared gifts, some rare items bought from the black market.
Liu Changsheng looked at the gift, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded:
"Okay, since you're here to help, I'll give you a letter of introduction. However, you have to come back early and don't run around outside. The situation outside is very complicated right now, Liu Jun. I'm worried about whether you can handle it."
Liu Jianjun listened and smiled mischievously, "Hey, Village Chief, I'm here. Uncle Jun, I'll take care of him, there will definitely be no problem."
Liu Changsheng said no more and directly issued letters of introduction to the two of them.
Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun hurriedly thanked him, took the letter of introduction and returned to Liu Jun's home. The two of them secretly added Liu Sheng's name on it, making the forgery perfect.
The next morning, Liu Jun, Liu Jianjun and Cilangjun, who changed his name to Liu Sheng, carried their bags and headed deep into the mountains.
Their figures seemed a little hurried in the morning light, as if they were heading towards an unknown world.
Not far away, Lantian was following them invisibly.
This morning, she used teleportation to return to the capital and asked Ma Pingyuan and Fu Ming for a few days off. Seeing that Lantian refused to say more about where she was going, Ma Pingyuan and Fu Ming guessed that Lantian might be going to deal with enemy spies.
However, since Lantian didn't say anything, they could only pretend not to know.
Both of them couldn't help but worry, but they couldn't stop Lantian from going.
It really made both of them worried.
Regardless of the two people's worries, Lantian moved quickly and soon came to the outside of the cave, waiting for the three people to come out.
Cang Zhi led Liu Jianjun and Liu Sheng into the mountains. As soon as they stepped into the mountains, the dense branches and leaves blocked the sunlight completely, and the air was filled with the smell of dampness and decay.
The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves. When you stepped on it, you would find countless potholes and sharp stones hidden under the soft leaves. If you were not careful, you would sprain your ankle.
The three of them struggled to clear a path through the jungle intertwined with thorns and vines. The sharp thorns scratched their skin, and blood oozed out. Sweat mixed with blood made the wounds burn with pain.
As they walked, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and then raindrops as big as beans poured down, soaking them like drowned rats in an instant.
The mountain path became muddy and every step required a lot of effort. His shoes were tightly wrapped in thick mud, and Liu Jianjun almost slipped several times.
To make matters worse, the rain also caused local landslides, and the rolling mud and rocks blocked their way forward. The three of them had to climb over the slippery mud carefully, and any mistake would result in them being swallowed up by the mudslide.
As soon as the rain stopped, the air around became extremely hot and humid, making it hard to breathe.
Suddenly, a low roar came from the depths of the jungle, and a huge black bear jumped out from the bushes.
It stood up, more than two people tall, its black fur gleaming coldly in the dim light, its sharp claws digging marks on the ground, and it roared from its mouth, obviously angered by their intrusion.
Liu Jun's face turned pale and he frantically pulled out his pistol, but his nervousness caused his hands to tremble uncontrollably.
Liu Jianjun quickly drew out the dagger from his waist and tried to find the black bear's weakness.
Just as the black bear was about to attack, Liu Jun pulled the trigger. With a bang, the bullet grazed the black bear's ear. The black bear, completely enraged, roared and charged at them.
Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun stood back to back, ready to fight to the death.
Liu Jun kept firing, trying to scare away the black bear, while Liu Jianjun waved a dagger to prevent the black bear from getting close.
At this critical moment, Jiro suddenly picked up a thick branch, lit it, and threw it at the black bear. The burning branch made the black bear feel threatened.
It hesitated for a moment, then finally turned and rushed into the jungle.
After all this, the three of them were exhausted, but they did not dare to stop. After a short rest, they continued on their way.
As we go deeper into the mountains, the terrain becomes increasingly rugged. On one side of the narrow mountain road is a steep cliff, and on the other side is a towering mountain wall.
Loose rocks rolled down the mountain wall from time to time, so they could only move forward cautiously, taking every step with fear.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at a valley surrounded by high mountains. A light mist filled the valley, giving people a mysterious and eerie feeling.
Liu Jun said excitedly: "It's here. I can feel that the laboratory must be nearby."
He took out the yellowed map fragment from his pocket and carefully compared it with the surrounding terrain.
Liu Jianjun and Jirojun also began to look for clues everywhere. They searched the valley, not missing any corner.
Suddenly, Jiro-kun discovered a stone with strange symbols engraved on it, and he quickly called Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun over.
Liu Jun looked at the symbols on the stone, his expression becoming serious:
"These symbols are very similar to what I saw in the information. It seems we have found the right place."
His eyes sparkled with excitement, but also with a hint of nervousness.
Just then, Lantian quietly approached them.
She hid behind a huge rock and watched their every move.
She knew that real danger was approaching, and she had to take action at the critical moment to stop their conspiracy.
Liu Jun and others began digging in the valley, hoping to find the entrance to the laboratory.
As the excavation deepened, some ancient stone slabs gradually emerged. The stone slabs were engraved with various strange patterns and texts, telling a forgotten history.
Suddenly, Liu Jianjun exclaimed: "Look, there is a tunnel here!"
Everyone rushed over and saw a narrow tunnel appear in front of them. The tunnel was filled with an old smell that made people shudder.
Liu Jun took the lead and walked into the tunnel without hesitation. He held a flashlight in his hand, and the light swayed in the tunnel, reflecting various strange symbols on the wall.
Liu Jianjun and Jiro-jun followed closely behind, their hearts beating faster, not knowing what was waiting for them at the end of the tunnel.
Lantian also followed in quietly, her footsteps light and silent, like a ghost.
The tunnel was dark and damp, with water dripping from the walls from time to time. The dripping sound echoed in the silent tunnel, making people feel creepy.
After walking for about ten minutes, the tunnel suddenly became wider and a huge stone gate appeared in front of them.
A huge skull is carved on the stone gate, and there is a strange light flashing in the skull's eyes, as if watching everyone who approaches.
Liu Jun walked forward and looked at the stone door carefully. He found that there was a groove on the stone door, and it seemed that something was needed to open it.
He pulled a jade pendant from his pocket. He had found it in an ancient book, supposedly related to the laboratory. He placed it into the groove, and with a click, the stone door slowly opened.
A pungent smell hit them in the face, and everyone quickly covered their mouths and noses.
Behind the stone door is a huge room filled with various experimental equipment and containers. The containers are filled with liquids of various colors, emitting strange light.
In the center of the room, there is a huge metal container engraved with various runes, as if sealing something terrible.
Liu Jun rushed in excitedly, his eyes flashing with greed:
"That's it! As long as we open this container, we'll succeed!"
He couldn't wait to get closer to the metal container, but was stopped by Liu Jianjun.
"Be careful, there may be danger in here." Liu Jianjun said vigilantly.
At this moment, in the room that was originally eerily quiet, suddenly, as if an invisible hand had turned on a switch, a deafening and continuous sound of machines running suddenly rang out.
The sound was like the roar of a demon from the abyss of hell, or the heavy breathing of an ancient behemoth awakening, which was creepy.
Along with this terrifying sound, a dazzling light suddenly lit up, projecting a clear and realistic holographic image in front of everyone.
Looking closely, I saw an old man in the military uniform of the island country standing there. His posture was as straight as a pine tree, but his face was full of traces of time and vicissitudes.
His sharp eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring coldly at everyone present, revealing a chilling coldness and majesty.
The old man looked extremely serious, and his stern face was like an iceberg, emitting bursts of coldness.
He began to speak, his deep and magnetic voice was like a huge bell, carrying an unquestionable mockery and gloating.
"Foolish fellows, you're still a step too late. This laboratory, hidden deep underground, was completely destroyed long before we evacuated home. What you see before you now is nothing more than an abandoned, empty shell. All the research-worthy and potentially dangerous items within have long been properly disposed of, leaving not a single trace behind. Therefore, your hope of obtaining our experimental results is wishful thinking."
Hearing these words, Liu Jun's face instantly turned as pale as snow, without a trace of blood.
His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, as if he had just heard the bad news that the world was coming to an end.
Then, he ran towards the neatly arranged experimental equipment as if he had gone mad, waving his hands in the air and muttering something.
However, when he rushed closer to take a closer look, he suddenly collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball.
Because the once-advanced instruments and equipment before him were now completely damaged, some even reduced to scrap metal; and the containers that should have stored precious samples or confidential information were now filled with only ordinary colorless transparent liquids, with no valuable clues or evidence to be found.
"No, that's impossible! How could it be possible?"
Liu Jun roared to the sky in despair. His voice echoed in the vast, empty laboratory for a long time, sounding filled with pain, unwillingness, and anger...
Liu Jianjun also looked dejected. He slumped on the ground with empty eyes. His original ambitions and expectations vanished in an instant.
Lantian hid quietly in a dark corner like a nimble cat, his body pressed tightly against the wall, his breathing becoming slower.
The tense and exciting scene just now made her heart rise to her throat, but fortunately she was out of danger for the time being, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
However, Lantian did not relax at all because of this brief period of safety.
She knew clearly that this operation was just the beginning, and the place before them was just one of the stops in their long search journey.
Those cruel guys will definitely not give up so easily. They will definitely continue to persevere in exploring other places where biological and chemical laboratories may be hidden.
Thinking of this, a hint of determination flashed in Lantian's beautiful and resolute eyes.
She was determined to keep a low profile and follow the group quietly, not alerting them so as not to arouse their vigilance and ruin the entire plan.
Only in this way, after they have found all the biochemical laboratories, can we find the right time to deal a fatal blow to the enemy, destroy all these terrible laboratories, and fundamentally eliminate these huge threats lurking deep in society!
Although Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun were unwilling, they had no choice but to leave the abandoned laboratory.
The three of them returned along the way they came and set out on their search again.
Lantian followed them like a shadow, always keeping a safe distance. Her eyes were fixed on the three of them, not missing any of their moves.
In the following days, they wandered to another place deep in the mountains. The environment here was even more harsh, with towering peaks reaching the sky and thick fog filling the mountains, making it difficult to tell the direction.
Relying on the incomplete map and some vague clues in his hand, Liu Jun searched hard in this unfamiliar forest.
They climbed steep hillsides, crossed turbulent rivers, and encountered various dangers along the way.
Once, they accidentally stepped into a swamp. The mud quickly covered their ankles, and the more they struggled, the deeper they sank.
Liu Jun and Liu Jianjun struggled hard, trying to break free from the swamp, but their efforts were in vain.
Just when they felt desperate, Jiro-kun found a long branch. He stretched the branch towards the two of them, and after some hard work, he finally pulled them out.
