Epoch of Twilight

"Katcha, Kacha..."

The pistol fired a series of empty shots.

A black shadow sprang out like lightning, and when it got closer, it suddenly jumped up, opened its fangs and bit down on Team Chen's neck.

Team Chen's complexion changed drastically. Looking at the pounced wild cat, his whole body froze in fright.

At this moment, Luo Yuan suddenly accelerated from stillness, rushed over with a stride, and hit the wild cat heavily with his shoulder. At this time, the wild cat was in the air, completely out of strength, and was immediately knocked three or four meters away by him. It rolled over a few times and stood up, shaking its head, obviously still a little dizzy.

Luo Yuan didn't give it any time to react, he raised his knife and stepped closer. The distance of three or four meters was reached in an instant, and he raised his knife to chop at the wild cat's waist.

The machete was thick and easy to chop. Although it was not very sharp, its lethality was not weak at all. With just a click, the spine was cut off, and the knife went down, cutting the whole body in half.

"Wow!"

The wild cat that had been cut in half screamed again and again, struggling to stand up, its two forelimbs kept crawling forward, its internal organs continuously flowed out along the half of its body, and dragged all over the ground, there was a strong smell in the air. The smell of blood.

"Bang! Bang!" Zhao Qiang reacted and shot again and again.

"Damn beast!"

Wildcat was shot twice in the head, trembled, and finally stopped struggling.

"vomit!"

Huang Jiahui looked at this extremely bloody scene, her face turned blue and white, suddenly her stomach rolled, she couldn't bear it anymore, walked to the edge of the grass and began to vomit violently.

Luo Yuan didn't feel very good either. At that time, his mind rushed over on impulse, and he didn't even have time to think. He didn't feel a little scared until now.

At this time, his hands were shaking non-stop, and even his body was trembling slightly. If he hadn't grabbed the handle of the knife forcefully, the knife might have slipped off by now.

When did I become so brave?

At this time, Wang Fei covered his right face, slowly crawled out from the thorns, and said with a look of fear: "Captain, this place is too dangerous. Our police force is seriously insufficient, and a wild cat will let us do this. What? I think it’s almost time to get here. It’s impossible to find those missing people.”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone expressed their intention to retreat.

Luo Yuan's face changed, the worst thing happened, he immediately said first: "I didn't see the body, I never believe that my brother-in-law is dead, at least I have to go to the top of the mountain to see!"

"You don't have a place to talk here, if you miss, go yourself, don't go with us!" Seeing Luo Yuan who was talking, Wang Fei suddenly burst out.

Luo Yuan looked at Wang Fei in a daze. He didn't know why Wang Fei suddenly lost his temper with him. He didn't seem to offend him, did he?

There was a surge of anger in his heart, and his words were naturally not very pleasant: "If you are afraid, you can go first, anyway, you are useless along the way?"

Luo Yuan's words immediately stimulated Wang Fei's sensitive heart, his face flushed red, he took out his pistol, pointed at Luo Yuan and said, "Your mother, try to say it again?"

"Don't!" Huang Jiahui exclaimed, she never thought that Wang Fei, who is usually shy, would be such a person who would draw a gun at each other if he disagreed with him, which was too impulsive.

"Wang Fei, stop!" Captain Chen shouted, his face darkening.

Seeing Captain Chen yelling to stop, Wang Fei was a little scared and hesitated, but his fragile self-esteem still made him persevere, and he blushed and said loudly: "Captain, it's not that I don't listen to you, I want him to tell me Apologize!"

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed across Luo Yuan. Being pointed at with a gun like this, not being afraid is a lie. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Luo Yuan felt his heart beating faster in an instant. The gun is a cold weapon to deter modern people. Incomparably, he almost felt his thinking stop for a moment.

Death is so near, it seems to be in sight.

He almost begged for mercy, apologized!

But the breath in his heart has always supported him. He can bow his head, but he will never bow his head under the gun. This is a humiliation to him.

All thoughts flashed by, and he gradually calmed down and found that things were not as terrible as imagined. He didn't believe that Wang Fei, who hadn't lost his mind, dared to shoot in full view.

Moreover, the distance between him and Wang Fei is only about one meter. As long as he moves fast enough and decisively enough, he can even cut off his arm or even kill him when the other party reacts. Things are getting worse.

Thinking that he has the ability to fight back, he completely calmed down.

He thought for a while and then said: "If you want me to apologize, you should put down the gun first. If Captain Chen hadn't saved you just now, I'm afraid you would have died already, and it's useless to be afraid now. Everything depends on Captain Chen, if Captain Chen Say go, I have nothing else to say!"

These words were a bit ingenious, not only to isolate Wang Fei, but also cryptically pointed to the fact that Captain Chen had just been rescued, so that these policemen would not huddle together.

Captain Chen's face darkened immediately. He remembered that he escaped death just now. If Luo Yuan hadn't saved his life, he would already be lying on the ground. , he naturally leaned towards Luo Yuan, and at the same time, he also developed a slight dislike for Wang Fei.

"Wang Fei, I order you, put down the gun, do you hear me!" he said sharply.

"Team...captain...me!" Wang Fei hesitated.

"Xiao Wang, put down the gun." Zhao Qiang also persuaded him, he also didn't like Wang Fei who had high eyesight but low hands.

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, Wang Fei glanced at Luo Yuan with an ugly face, and put down his gun in a slumped manner.

Luo Yuan didn't even look at him, walked up to Team Chen, and Chen Ken said: "Captain Chen, I was too impulsive just now, I want to apologize to you!"

Captain Chen's expression was a little slow, and he said earnestly: "I can understand your feelings. Anyone's relatives will do the same. But it is indeed more dangerous here. If we can't find it at the top of the mountain, we will go back. You how do you feel?"

This is the role of taking the risk to save people just now, otherwise, he would never be so easy to talk about. As for the apology to Wang Fei, it will naturally be nothing.

"Okay!" Luo Yuan said heavily: "I also know that there is not much hope, but at least there is still a little hope. If you don't look for it, there will be no hope."

Huang Jiahui also came over to comfort her and said, "Are you okay? Wang Fei just entered the police station. He is a bit frizzy in his work and lacks exercise. Don't take it to heart!"

"It's okay, sister Hui! How can I be narrow-minded?"

"How does it feel to be pointed at by a gun?" Zhao Qiang walked over unsteadily, grinning.

"It's still a little weak." Luo Yuan smiled wryly.

Zhao Qiang compared his thumbs and was greatly impressed. He has seen many people who are usually five or six arrogant and want to die. Once someone points a gun at their head, they will be ugly. Kowtow begging for mercy is relatively calm, and they are so scared that they shit and pee. Not uncommon, he had never seen anyone as bold as Xiang Luo Yuan.

Compared with the excitement on Luo Yuan's side, no one paid attention to Wang Fei. He stood alone not far away, with anger, resentment, regret, fear, and jealousy in his heart.

After staying for a while, there were many rustling sounds around, a big mouse got out of the grass first, it looked at the crowd vigilantly, and then at the pile of corpses, it seemed a little hesitant Absolutely.

Team Chen stood up vigilantly: "Go, we can't rest here anymore, the smell of blood can easily attract other beasts."

"Team Chen, I think we have already climbed halfway up the hillside, why don't we shout, and if someone hears it, they should respond!" Huang Jiahui suggested.

"Wait until you pass here before shouting, I'm worried about alarming the nearby beasts." Team Chen said

Although Luo Yuan hadn't recovered his physical strength, he was so tired after resting for a while. The machete he swung kept moving forward. Because of the bloody smell, there were many more animals around, but most of them took the initiative to avoid and attack. not a single one.

After walking for tens of meters, everyone shouted at the top of their voices, but there was no response.

Luo Yuan also became anxious. Could it be that Chen Weiqiang is really dead.

"Hey, do you see any clothes over there?" Huang Jiahui suddenly pointed to a thin ribbon tens of meters away on the left and said.

Luo Yuan cheered up, and immediately followed Huang Jiahui's finger to look: "It seems to be true, there is a trace of walking over there? It seems that they entered the mountain from that side. Captain, why don't we go over there and have a look?"

"Okay, go and have a look!" Captain Chen said.

Luo Yuan immediately changed direction, and after ten minutes, they arrived at the place Huang Jiahui pointed out.

This is a narrow path. The trees on the path are crumbling here and there, as if they have been ravaged by something. The sleeve of a shirt is just hanging on the branch beside the road, and it is still stained with blood. The owner of the sleeve is obviously in a bad situation. good.

"Looking at the freshness of the bloodstain, it should not exceed two days. It is very likely that it was left by Mayor Xia and his group!" Team Chen said, and squatted down to check the surroundings carefully: "There are still bloodstains on the ground , They may have been attacked by wild beasts at that time, and in a panic, they must have fled down the mountain, let's look for them along the path down the mountain?"

Luo Yuan nodded, because there was an existing road, the speed of the group was much faster, but within a few tens of meters, the bloodstains suddenly disappeared, and there was an extra one-foot-wide fork road next to it, which was winding , but the strange thing is that each curvature is very regular, as if it has been accurately measured.

Looking at this regular fork in the road, Luo Yuan suddenly remembered something, and suddenly a chill rose from his tailbone and spread throughout his body!

"Damn it, can't this be the way of the snake?" Zhao Qiang also thought about it. He quickly raised his pistol and said with a wary face: "Such a big snake way, I don't know how big the snake will be?"

Luo Yuan saw Wang Fei take a few steps back secretly, standing behind the crowd, and believed that if he was not worried that it would be too dangerous to go down the mountain alone, he would definitely turn around and run away.

"Xiao Luo, you decide, do you want to go and have a look, or go straight down the mountain?" Captain Chen handed over the decision to Luo Yuan.

"It's better to go down the mountain directly. Your brother-in-law must be hopeless." Huang Jiahui said beside her, persuading her.

Luo Yuan pondered for a while, finally gritted his teeth and said: "Captain Chen, I can go down the mountain and leave immediately, as if my brother-in-law is dead."

He paused, and then said: "I can go, but you can't. This snake is already this big. If the damn climate doesn't return to normal, it won't be long before it will definitely get bigger. When the animal can't satisfy it, it will go down the mountain to eat people. You are the policemen of the Gaotang Town Police Station. Since you have chosen this profession, you can't escape. It will be you who will be sent out at that time.

Do you think it's easier to deal with a snake that can't even move now after eating and drinking enough, or a bigger, more ferocious, hungry snake is easier to deal with! "

"How do you know he can't move?" Wang Fei seized the opportunity and asked immediately.

Luo Yuan glanced at him, as if looking at an idiot again, and said: "Even if a snake is as thick as a bucket, it will take days or even a week to digest after swallowing four or five people. During this period, its movements will be greatly restricted. It's even hard to move, and it's actually not as dangerous as you think."

After speaking, he looked at Captain Chen, waiting for him to make a decision.

If the other party gave up, he had no choice but to fail the mission.

This time, he was not well prepared. He couldn't deal with a giant snake alone. In addition, he still has a phobia of snakes. At that time, he might not even be able to display the strength of the fifth floor.

Team Chen's expression fluctuated. After a long time, he stared at Luo Yuan and said, "I hope what you said is right. For the sake of the villagers at the foot of the mountain, let's go and have a look!"

He still had a sense of justice in his heart. The other party was right. If such a giant snake was not killed early, the village below would be very dangerous. More people will die in Shekou.

In front of Dayi, even Wang Fei, who was full of fear in his heart, shut his mouth!

As soon as he walked on this snake path, the atmosphere became a little depressed. Looking at the swaying branches around him, he could roughly estimate how powerful this snake is. As long as it is swept lightly by it, I am afraid that even if it is not dead, it will be half disabled.

Huang Jiahui followed Luo Yuan closely, never leaving her, almost getting close to his body, obviously feeling safer by his side.

Luo Yuan smiled wryly in his heart, his palms were wet with sweat, and the handle of the knife was drenched with sweat, making it look a bit slippery! If she knew that he was scared to death now, what would she think?

Everyone was cautious and nervous all the way, and within a few minutes, the group was already sweating profusely, and their clothes seemed to have been soaked in water.

Half an hour later, the snake path finally came to an end, and there was a bare slope in front of it, from which one could easily see fallen dead trees. It's hard to imagine that in this dense jungle, there is an open space!

Several people immediately fell to the ground, not daring to vent their breath. There is no doubt that this is the habitat of the giant snake.

"Xiao Wang, go and have a look, and be careful not to disturb it!" Captain Chen said in a low voice. He originally wanted to call Luo Yuan, but then he thought about it, Luo Yuan, a commoner, was basically helping. , but these policemen didn't do anything, and they were embarrassed to let others take risks.

Wang Fei's face turned pale, he looked at the others, and then at Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan turned his head as if aware of it, and gave him a mocking look.

That look made Wang Fei feel unspeakably uncomfortable, holding his breath in his chest, he blurted out: "Okay!"

As soon as he said the words, he immediately regretted it, but he couldn't swallow what he said.

He took out his pistol slowly, and moved his body forward step by step, as if he was on the execution ground. It was a short distance of tens of meters, and it took more than ten minutes to walk. In the last ten meters, his legs were even weaker, and he lay on the ground like a fleshy insect, and dared not move forward any more.

Chen Dui's expression darkened immediately.

"What an embarrassment to the police!" Zhao Qiang grinned and said, "Let me go!"

Luo Yuan sneered in his heart, Wang Fei dared to draw his gun at him when facing his taunts, but in the face of real fear, he couldn't even stand up, even if he had a gun in his hand, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Team Chen nodded. He was completely disappointed with Wang Fei. How could such a person be a policeman, even worse than ordinary people.

Zhao Qiang had obviously been a soldier. He crawled forward on the ground, and his speed was not slow at all. Within a few minutes, he had crawled to the side of Wang Fei. He picked up Wang Fei's gun, stuffed it into his trouser belt, and Regardless of him, continue to climb forward.

After a while, Zhao Qiang came back. He had always been careless, but now his face was as pale as paper!
