The canyon was dead silent. There were no birds, beasts, or even mosquitoes. It was as if all living things had escaped from this world ruled by the living dead.

Only abnormally dense plants covered every inch of space from the ground to the sky.

The morning sun gradually rose, and the gray mist retreated from the forest, turning into gray and light blue fog. In an instant, it was penetrated by the thin golden sunlight, and the shadows of the trees and grass slowly moved back with the sun.

Sinan raised his gun and moved silently behind a tree.

At this moment, the trees more than ten meters away suddenly swayed violently!

— Bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

Sinan suddenly opened fire, and the man ran away under the cover of the towering ancient trees!

Sinan followed closely and fired a few more shots, but the man was hidden by the trees and moving at high speed, so he couldn't hit him.

The man was obviously more familiar with the environment than Sinan, and he chose the rugged and difficult places to move. Sinan was caught off guard and stepped into a hole in the tree, and was instantly drowned by countless dead branches and rotten leaves. Fortunately, he grabbed a stone in the nick of time and stabilized his body weight and 30 to 40 kilograms of equipment.

"F * ck …" Sinan cursed in his heart. He quickly climbed up to the ground and looked around.

The man had already escaped and completely lost track of him. Sinan had already chased him to the edge of the canyon, far away from the waterfall.

Sinan observed for a moment in the crooked shrubs on the ground. He got up and saw a rapid stream not far away — the man must have jumped into the stream and ran away quickly, completely erasing all traces. There was no way to track him.

Sinan walked to the stream and washed his face. The water reflected his frowning eyebrows.

Who killed the four special forces soldiers and lured the zombies to the camp?

Who was the one who purposely lured him here?

Sinan scooped water with his palm and splashed it on his face. After a few times, he shook his wet short hair and suddenly shouted in English, "Romuir!

What trick are you playing?! "

The surrounding was quiet, and there was not even an echo.

"Romuir!" Sinan shouted, "Come out!"

Patter —

Sinan turned around and locked on to the source of the sound. A round ball poked out from a crack in the cliff not far away.

"…" The ball was stunned for a moment, and then a voice came from afar, "Sinan?!"

The Sinan narrowed his eyes. "Tang … Chief?"

"It's Tang Hao. Thank you."

Five minutes later, Tang Hao pulled Sinan up and led him into a hidden cave behind a rock crack. He said helplessly, "My luck has always been normal. It's only when I'm poisoned by Zhou Rong that I'm particularly unlucky. It's really not my fault."

The cave was full of twists and turns. After walking for about twenty steps, they made a turn, and a space of about seven to eight square meters appeared in front of them. Three haggard special forces soldiers stood up one after another. "Lieutenant Colonel!"

Tang Hao gestured for them to sit down. Sinan suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure lying motionless in the corner. He quickly stepped forward and took a look. He gasped softly. "… Guo Weixiang?"

Guo Weixiang's eyes were tightly shut, and his face was pale. His abdomen was bandaged in a mess, and purple-black blood was oozing out of it. He did not look like a human at all.

Sinan immediately checked his temperature and pulse. Guo Weixiang had a fatal fever, and it was obvious that he had been infected. If they delayed any longer, the situation would become very dangerous.

"He was like this when we found him. It's been almost seventy-two hours."

Tang Hao said in a low voice, "Fortunately, you came. Otherwise, Young Master Guo's life would probably have ended here."

Sinan took out antibiotics from his backpack, choked Guo Weixiang's neck, and forced them into his mouth. He then quickly prepared a special life-saving injection for the special forces and injected it into Guo Weixiang's carotid artery. He asked, "What happened?"

"Late at night on the day of the attack, I took the remaining members and fought our way out of the zombie crowd. Along the way, I lost all my equipment and weapons. In the chaos, I couldn't see anything clearly. In a hurry, I got separated from the others …"

Sinan glanced at him with a look that said, "You're not the unlucky one."

"I soaked in the stream for a night. When I returned to the camp the next day, I wanted to take a chance and see if there were any survivors. Then, I met him."

Tang Hao pointed at Guo Weixiang and said, "At that time, he was hiding in the tree pit and had already been infected with the zombie virus. He probably injected himself with secondary antibodies before he passed out. Luckily, he didn't turn into a zombie.

I dragged him out and found that his abdomen was full of blood. He must have been hit by a stray bullet on the night of the zombie attack. Fortunately, he was protected by the strong healing effect of the secondary antibodies. After I dug out the bullet, he became like this. "

Tang Hao's eyebrows always hid a trace of indescribable worry. He leaned against the wall and sat on the wet ground, sighing tiredly.

Sinan didn't say anything. After a while, he suddenly asked, "How did you find this place?"

"I carried him on my back and wandered around for a long time until I met them." Tang Hao gestured to the few special forces soldiers and said, "They found this cave. Fortunately, the terrain is high and hidden. Otherwise, the smell of blood on Young Master Guo would have attracted the zombies.

For the next two days, I went out to search for survivors during the day. But I didn't have any weapons and there were many zombies nearby. I didn't meet any living people or rescue teams. "

Tang Hao wiped his face hard and changed the topic. He asked, "How did you find this place?

Where are the main forces? "

Sinan said, "Zhou Rong is in the back."

Tang Hao: "…"

The two of them stared at each other. Tang Hao couldn't help but ask, "What else?"

"I was deliberately lured here." Sinan said simply, "That's all."

Tang Hao huoran stood up. "What?

There are still living people in the canyon?

Who lured you here?

What do they look like?

Did you see clearly who it was? "

Sinan: "No."

The two of them looked at each other again. Tang Hao's head was full of "…", while Sinan's eyes were calm and her expression was magnanimous. She seemed to have said all that she needed to say.

After a while, Tang Hao finally couldn't help but ask carefully, "Has anyone ever given you any friendly advice on communication skills?"

"No. Do you want to talk about it?"

Tang Hao: "… No, no, no. It's nothing."

Sinan took out dry food and water from her bag and gave them to the three special forces soldiers. She got out of the cave and fired a signal flare at the edge of the cliff. Then she retreated, picked up her bag and said, "The rescue team will be here soon. I'm leaving."

Tang Hao was stunned. "Where are you going?"

"Continue to look for people."

"Aren't you going to wait for Zhou Rong and the others to join us?"

Sinan said lightly, "Actually, I don't like to move in groups. I'm faster alone."

Tang Hao immediately stopped her. "No, we haven't figured out the identity of the person who led you here just now. It's too dangerous to act alone!

I've searched the area several times. There are no traces of survivors at all. In the absence of professional equipment, even if you rely on manpower, it's impossible to … "

Tang Hao's words came to an abrupt end. He saw Sinan's clenched fist stretch out in front of him. She loosened it, and a blood-stained steel nameplate fell into the air.

1180610, Yan Hao.

"There are two more."

Si Nanping said quietly, "No matter what happens, I won't stop until I find them."

No one spoke in the cave. After a while, a special forces soldier in the corner put down the water bottle and said in a hoarse voice, "I'll go with you."

"Me too …"

The three of them stood up one after another. Tang Hao interrupted them. "No!

You guys are in bad shape! "Then he turned to Sinan." Give me a gun. I'll go with you. "

"Lieutenant Colonel!

… "

Tang Hao's attitude was very firm. However, Sinan hesitated for a moment and did not answer.

"If you're looking for Cymbidium Annuum and Ding Shi, I might know where they went.

I was with them when they broke out of the encirclement late that night. We only got separated when we crossed the river. If they didn't change direction midway, we should be able to follow their tracks along the river bank. "

Tang Hao opened his palm. Dingding looked at Sinan and repeated, "Give me a gun. I'll go with you to find them."

After more than ten seconds, Sinan finally took the gun from his back and threw it over.

Tang Hao caught it accurately. Sinan turned around and walked out. He said lightly, "Save it. There are only five bullets."

The sun had completely risen outside the canyon. Except for the stone walls high in the sky, the mountains and plains were covered in dense greenery. The sun was so bright that it was difficult to open one's eyes.

"You've never seen it before, right?" Tang Hao let go of the rope and jumped down the stone cliff. He laughed briefly. "There are no animals, no insects, only plants that look creepy. It's as if the fear of the zombie virus is written in the genes of all living things. This planet will soon be occupied by the living dead and plants."

They crossed the tree ditches and walked through the lush forest. After a while, they finally heard the faint roar of a waterfall in front of them.

Sinan was carrying dozens of kilograms of equipment and was slightly behind. Tang Hao took the initiative and said, "Let me help you."

However, Sinan shook his head.

"… You Omega," Tang Hao had to take back his hand and push aside the bushes that were half the height of a person. He said in confusion, "You're different from all the Omega I've seen. I feel that you can live without Alpha. Why did you end up with Zhou Rong …"

Bang!

Tang Hao's voice paused. The bullet brushed past him and hit the zombies behind the trees dozens of steps away.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Sinan shot one zombie per shot. In the dense forest with extremely low visibility, he killed all the zombies within a hundred meters. All the zombies that were hit by the bullet were accurately shot in the head.

He glanced intently around him from behind the scope and said softly:

"You're talking as if you've seen a lot of Omega."

Tang Hao: "…"

"Clear," Sinan lowered the muzzle. "Let's go."

Tang Hao: "… Hey, I'll tell you!

Has anyone ever had communication skills … That … Forget it. "

The sound of the waterfall was loud, reflecting countless colorful lights under the sunlight.

They went around the camp from afar. Sinan did not release a signal flare to notify the main force. Tang Hao did not mention it either. He only focused on recalling the retreat route that night by identifying the environment along the way. The two of them walked and stopped.

After walking along the river bank for a while, the terrain suddenly increased, and the river turned sharply downward. The difference in height formed a cliff about seven or eight meters high.

Tang Hao observed for a long time, then stopped in his tracks, very hesitant. "Maybe … it should be here.

When we broke through the encirclement and reached here late that night, the zombie horde caught up with us. In a hurry, I got separated from the others … "

Sinan suddenly asked, "They didn't care about you?"

Tang Hao laughed and said, "Everyone had used up all their bullets. It was dark everywhere, and the zombies were running wild. The visibility was less than half a meter. How could they care about me in that situation?"

Sinan nodded and did not say anything. He half-knelt in front of the cliff and carefully looked at the river. No one knew what he was thinking.

Tang Hao looked at his back and felt that sometimes he could not understand the former instructor of the White Eagle.

He did not hesitate to betray A Country, where he grew up for more than twenty years. However, after coming to C Country, he did not show the slightest affection or nostalgia for this place. He seemed to feel a sense of responsibility towards his special forces teammates, but when he saw Guo Weixiang who was seriously injured and dying, he did not show any emotion other than calmly and decisively taking medicine immediately.

When everyone gathered together, he was the one with the weakest sense of presence and the most silent.

But when the group was in trouble and everyone was at their wits' end, he was the first to solve the problem.

No one could know what was going on in his head, and no one could predict what unexpected move he would make next.

Tang Hao looked down and hid his complicated thoughts. After a while, he looked up and asked, "Hey, do you think the surroundings are familiar?"

"No.

Why? "

"I'm thinking … if you remembered the way after the crash and came with us a few days ago, maybe we could have found the antibodies immediately."

Sinan Hui glanced at him. "Why are you making such an obvious assumption?"

Tang Hao forced a smile, although it looked more like a bitter smile. "It's nothing.

I'm just afraid that there's only one tube of antibodies in the world. If there's an accident and it's gone, it'll really be gone. "

Sinan said, "There's only one tube of antibodies.

Maybe the White Eagle Base still has the information on paper, but it's likely that it was already destroyed when the virus broke out. "

Tang Hao's heart seemed to skip a beat, and his face suddenly became a little pale. "What if it's accidentally lost?

I mean, just now you said that someone deliberately led you there, which means that there's probably another group of people in this canyon besides us. If they get the antibodies in advance … "

"It'll be very troublesome," Sinan said lightly. "So we have to do it as soon as possible."

Tang Hao coughed for a long time and said, "Is that so? I think so too."

Sinan looked at him carefully for a few seconds and did not say anything.

Tang Hao stood up awkwardly. "I want to go down and check. If those people went down the waterway, they might have left clues or road signs on the shore."

"There's no need to check."

"Hmm?"

"There." Sinan raised his hand and pointed. Looking in that direction, something black was vaguely hanging between the bushes on the riverbank below the cliff.

Tang Hao was stunned, and then he ran.

The two of them almost rolled down the steep and smooth cliff. The riverbank was full of smooth cobblestones, and the weeds and bushes on the steep slope were growing wildly. Tang Hao took the lead and crawled up the cliff. He saw a long black cloth tied to the top of a withered branch!

"It's our T-shirt!"

Tang Hao pulled off the cloth and handed it to Sinan. He quickly took off his camouflage jacket and pulled out the collar of his black T-shirt. "Look!

It's this one!

They must have torn it off and tied it here to make a road sign for us. There must be more around here … "

Sinan immediately refused. "No, I won't look. Talk properly and don't take off your clothes."

Tang Hao hurriedly buckled up his jacket, climbed down the steep slope and ran forward. It almost didn't take him much effort to find more traces. "Come on!

There's blood here! "

Sinan followed him. About twenty steps away, the bottom of the cliff and the ground were obviously stained with dried blood.

Following the direction of the blood, they found new drops of blood every few steps. It seemed that Spring Grass and the others had been seriously injured when they fled.

"They fired." Sinan squatted down and took out a metal shell from under the grass. He looked up and said, "They encountered zombies here."

Tang Hao's expression changed. "Look, what's that?"

The riverbank suddenly went up. There was a hole in the cliff not far away. It was about three or four meters above the ground, and they could barely climb up with the help of the raised rocks.

On the weeds growing in the vertical crevice, there were extremely obvious bloodstains, as if it had been trampled by someone covered in blood.

Tang Hao looked up at the hole, and his voice sounded strange. "Could they be in there?"

Sinan narrowed his eyes and stared thoughtfully at the dark hole.

"Is anyone there?" Tang Hao shouted. "Hey!

Is anyone there?

Come out! "

The rapid river rushed past their feet, and the sharp sound of the wind whistled through the valley. Other than that, there was no other sound.

Tang Hao walked to the bottom of the cliff and motioned for Sinan to come up. "Put down your gun and equipment, and step on my shoulder to take a look.

Don't go too deep, in case there are snakes in there. "

However, Sinan stared at him and didn't move.

"Come on, what's wrong?"

Sinan's eyes were deep, and the corners of his eyes were slanted. His facial features were good-looking, but when he stared at something like that, his light-colored eyes, which were different from ordinary people's, were somewhat cold and breathtaking.

"I won't put down my gun and equipment."

He stared at Tang Hao. His voice was not loud, but every word was very clear. "When I'm alone with you, I won't let go of my weapon."

Tang Hao was startled, and then slowly turned around.

"Are you on guard against me?"

"Be careful of being hung down!

Slow down!

Don't hit it! "

Zhou Rong carried a submachine gun on his back and personally directed the soldiers above to hoist the simple military stretcher down the cliff. Several rescue team members on the ground caught it steadily, and the medics immediately rushed forward to examine it.

"Xiangzi!" Zhou Rong quickly stepped forward, and his face instantly turned pale. "How is he?"

The medic shook his head while administering life-saving medicine. "His condition is very bad. The gunshot wound in his abdomen has begun to become infected. We need to arrange for surgery as soon as possible."

Zhou Rong ordered, "Inform the headquarters that three survivors and one seriously injured have been found. Call a helicopter to pick them up immediately, quick!"

Then he asked the three rescued special forces soldiers, "Where's the person who fired the signal flare just now?!"

The soldiers looked at each other. "He wants to go out to continue the search and rescue. He's already left …"

"He said that he can move faster alone. Lieutenant Colonel Tang insisted on going with him …"

Zhou Rong clenched his back molars, and his head buzzed.

He was about to force himself to pull out the next plan of action from his agitation and uneasiness when suddenly someone touched the back of his hand.

"… Rong …"

"He's awake!" The medic cried out. "Don't, don't move!

Don't talk! "

Zhou Rong suddenly turned around and saw Guo Weixiang struggling to lift two fingers. His cracked and bleeding lips opened and closed silently, as if he was trying to make a sound.

"Brother … Rong …"

"Brother Rong is here. Don't worry, it's all right." Zhou Rong said in a low voice, "The helicopter will be here soon … Don't move!

Xiangzi! "

"Dang …" Guo Weixiang's neck moved up and down, as if he was desperately trying to raise his head. "Be, be careful …"

Zhou Rong raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to stop the medic who wanted to stop him. He leaned over and put his ear to Guo Weixiang's lips, only to hear him spit out a few words weakly.

"Be careful … he …"

The next name made Zhou Rong's face change dramatically. For a moment, he thought he had misheard, but then he realized that he hadn't.

Guo Weixiang's chest violently gasped again. "Brother Rong … you …"

"I know, don't worry," Zhou Rong's voice trembled slightly at the end, but his tone was firm and strong. "I know, I'll go right away."

Guo Weixiang seemed to have completed some kind of obsession. His body suddenly sank and he fainted. The medic immediately rushed to give him first aid.

Zhou Rong quickly walked out of the crowd, grabbed the rescued special forces soldiers from the cave, and asked in a trembling voice, "Where did they go?"

The three soldiers looked at each other blankly. Then one of them suddenly remembered. "The riverbank!"

"That person insisted on looking for Ding Shi and the Cymbidium Annuum. Lieutenant Colonel Tang said that we should search along the riverbank!" The other soldier also remembered. "They might have gone in the direction of the waterfall!"

Zhou Rong let go of the soldier, turned around and shouted to the rescue team, "Let's go!"

At the same time, by the riverbank.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the sound of the river water hitting the rocks became particularly obvious.

Tang Hao turned around and stood still. His expression was neither happy nor angry. After a long time, he asked, "What do you think of me?"

The blood stains on the high rock walls were bright and dazzling, but Sinan suddenly seemed indifferent. "No."

"Then why did you …"

"I once saved someone's life."

Si Nanping said calmly, "I thought that saving someone's life was equivalent to trust. But later, when I wanted to cover for him to leave first, I was caught off guard and sprayed with ether.

He's not a bad person. On the contrary, he's a good person in the ordinary sense. But from then on, I learned that gratitude and trust are two different things. If I can't entrust my life to you, I can't put down my gun in front of you. That's all. "

Tang Hao was slightly stunned. Then he shook his head and sneered. With a clang, he pulled out his gun and threw it far away.

"Is this good enough?"

But Sinan still didn't move. He looked past Tang Hao and looked at the high ground.

"What else do you want?" Tang Hao was impatient. "Do you really want to climb on my shoulder with a 40-kilogram load on your back?!

Fine, I'll climb up first, and you can take your time below … "

Sinan suddenly didn't say a word. He pulled out his gun and aimed. Tang Hao saw the muzzle of the gun pointing directly at his face. His pupils contracted in an instant. The next moment, he heard a "bang!"

The bullet flew past his ear. Tang Hao turned his head back as if he had cramps. A headless zombie fell from the cliff.

"Roar —"

"Roar —!"

The faint whistling sound in the wind was getting closer and closer. It gradually turned into a roar.

Tang Hao took a few steps back. He saw zombies coming out of the forest in twos and threes. They seemed to be alarmed by their voices. In the blink of an eye, more and more zombies gathered!

Bang bang!

Bang!

A few zombies staggered and fell down the cliff. In front of their eyes, the zombies splattered and were dismembered.

Even more zombies stumbled down the steep slope. Some of them had their lumbar vertebrae broken when they hit the ground. They wriggled and crawled forward on the ground. Some of them staggered up and roared at the top of their lungs as they pounced on them.

Si Nan opened fire without hesitation. The submachine gun hit the first wave of zombies that rolled down the cliff and made them fall back one after another.

Tang Hao covered his head and rolled on the ground. He picked up his gun and accurately shot the zombie in front of him in the head. He rushed to the mountain wall and shouted, "Get to the cave!

Quick! "

Sinan glanced at him between the intense gunfire. At this moment, the second wave of zombies in ragged clothes staggered and blocked their way!

Tang Hao only had four bullets left in the barrel. He couldn't hit the zombies at all. He had to quickly climb up the cliff.

In the nick of time, he dodged the zombie's rotten hand that grabbed his ankle. When he was about to look back to see how Sinan was doing, he heard a loud sound — Splash!

The sound of water?!

Sinan retreated while firing. Soon, they retreated to the riverbed.

The submachine gun swept through the rows of zombies. Their limbs flew and their brains exploded. Bullet shells scattered all over the ground. In an instant, the high-powered firepower tore a gap in the zombie crowd.

The next wave of zombies didn't have time to surround them. Sinan took the opportunity to rush to the cliff. Suddenly, there was a loud splash from the river behind him. Something rushed out of the river. Then, something strangled his waist.

It was a pair of cold hands!

The unforeseen event happened too fast. Sinan didn't even have time to react when he opened fire. He was directly pulled back by the other party's brute force. He stepped on air for a split second —

There was a loud splash, and then the water was submerged!

Sinan blew a string of bubbles in the murky river. He realized that he was ambushed.
