Chapter 256 258 Ambush
Cao Xing carefully checked the surrounding environment, making his own plans in his mind. He was thinking about how he should answer if they asked him to lead the way. However, before he could wait for Cui Lie and others to ask him questions, he was kicked unexpectedly. With a "bang", his round body flew into the air, flipped over the closed door, and fell to the ground with another "bang", raising a cloud of dust.
When Cao Xing climbed up from the ground with his hands on his waist, grinning, Cui Lie landed lightly in front of him. There was a very pretty little boy in the small basket on his back.
Rong Xianxian sprinkled poison around and on the bodies of the two cars they were driving, and then they all passed through the gate and entered the factory.
According to the information Cui Lie had obtained from Cao Xing and the others before, there were two Chongmai Realm practitioners in the remaining group. Now, they probably knew about the arrival of Rong Xianxian and the others.
"Sister Rong, judging from the strength and comfort of the building structure, the office building area is the most suitable place to live. They are most likely to be entrenched there. However, we are in the light and they are in the dark, and this place is so large that it is hard to say where they are hiding." Cui Lie said as he looked at the office area.
Cao Xing lowered his head and listened to their conversation with his ears perked up. He heard every word Cui Lie said, but did not see the eye contact between Jiang Jie and Rong Xianxian.
Jiang Jie had something similar to a long-distance sound collector stuffed in his cochlea, and he was listening intently to the sounds coming from all directions. Rong Xianxian pointed to a direction, Jiang Jie listened for a moment, then shook his head. Rong Xianxian pointed to another direction, and Jiang Jie still shook his head.
"Sister Rong, there are people in the office area, and there is smoke coming out over there." Wang Qirui suddenly pointed at the office area in the middle and shouted.
Rong Xianxian looked over there and saw smoke indeed floating out. Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
"Let's go." Wang Qirui kicked Cao Xing and pushed him towards the office area where smoke was drifting out.
Cao Xing lowered his head, and a sinister look flashed across his eyes.
The group quickly reached the office area, and at that moment, Cao Xing suddenly squatted down, holding his stomach in pain. His facial features wrinkled in pain. Wang Qirui, who had been following him, instinctively stepped back. Cao Xing rolled on the ground. There was a crisp "click" sound, and not far away, a bluestone slab that was no different from the surrounding ground suddenly turned over, and Cao Xing rolled into the hole exposed by the bluestone slab and disappeared.
Cui Lie was quick-eyed and quick-footed. He aimed at the bluestone slab that had just been turned over and kicked it in pieces with a "crack".
"Clang, clang, clang" three cold arrows shot towards him. Cui Lie shook his body slightly and dodged them one by one. But when he looked at the hole again, he found that the hole had disappeared and was replaced by solid land.
Wang Lin took a long sword and stabbed the ground twice in succession. The sword felt heavy and sluggish. "What the hell is this? It was clearly a hole just now, how come it suddenly became solid?"
"Sister Rong, there are a lot of explosives buried nearby and the timer has started counting down. Let's run!" Jiang Jie, who had been listening carefully to the movements around him, suddenly said anxiously.
Just now when Wang Qirui said that there was someone here, Jiang Jie had been winking at Rong Xianxian. If there was someone here, there would always be some noise, whether it was a heartbeat or breathing. He listened carefully just now, and there was no one in this office area at all. But for some reason, Rong Xianxian ignored him and still came over here.
Rong Xianxian's face changed. She guessed that the other party must have set an ambush here to lead them here. Thinking that Cao Xing was so afraid of death, since he dared to come, it must be because there must be a retreat here. Those people were hiding in the dark, and if they didn't show up on their own initiative, Rong Xianxian and the others would really not be able to find them for a while. It was getting late, and she didn't have time to play hide-and-seek with them. She simply played along and pretended to be fooled. Then she just had to keep an eye on Cao Xing. However, she didn't expect that the underground mechanism was a bit weird, and Cao Xing actually escaped.
"You lead the way, and I'll cover you." Rong Xianxian looked at Cui Lie.
Cui Lie nodded, turned around and ran without saying anything, and Wang Lin, Jiang Jie and others followed him.
Rong Xianxian hugged Xuanxuan in her arms and kissed her. Xuanxuan hugged Rong Xianxian tightly. Rong Xianxian's speed was naturally much faster than Cui Lie and the others, but they didn't know the intensity of the explosion, and the Vajra Talisman might not be safe. In order to protect the weaker Xia Kai, Wang Qirui and others, Rong Xianxian could stay behind to help them withstand some of the impact of the explosion.
Cui Lie and his companions had only run out about a hundred meters when they heard a loud "boom", a huge explosion with billowing smoke, followed by a "crash", and the office building collapsed.
Cui Lie and Wang Lin were both from the military. When they felt the ground shaking, they immediately fell to the ground. The impact force of the explosion stimulated the flying carpet in Rong Xianxian's hand to automatically defend against rebound attacks. The flying carpet unfolded like a wall to protect Rong Xianxian.
"Sister Rong, are you okay?" Cui Lie and others surrounded Rong Xianxian in panic. Xuanxuan's big watery eyes were filled with tears of grievance. "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Rong Xianxian was just sitting on the ground to rest for a while because her body was weak after the flying carpet drained away her spiritual energy. Why were they all looking at her like this? Rong Xianxian was confused.
"I'm sorry, Sister Rong, we are the ones who got you into trouble!" Xia Kai's voice was choked with sobs, his eyes were red. If he was not the weakest, Sister Rong would not have to cover their retreat. With the speed of Captain Cui and Sister Rong, they could have run 500 meters.
Wang Qirui's face turned red. As a grown man, he still needed a woman's protection. He felt a little ashamed.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and go check over there our vehicle. I guess those rats that have been hiding have been poisoned by my poison! Go quickly." Rong Xianxian chased them to the parking lot at the gate to check.
"Okay, let's go now. Captain Cui, you stay here to protect Sister Rong. Leave these cowardly guys to us." Jiang Jie said proactively.
Sister Rong obviously couldn't stand their sentimental performance, so she decided to take everyone away. It was better to keep this feeling in mind, there was no need to talk about it out loud.
Jiang Jie and the others went to the main gate. Cui Lie's face looked a little grim at the moment. "Sister Rong, leave the task of covering the rear to me in the future."
"Alie, they don't know, but you don't know? My flying carpet can automatically defend against rebound attacks within a certain range. Even if I run a few hundred meters farther than you, the defense function may still be triggered. In this case, of course I am the most suitable person to cover their retreat." Rong Xianxian explained with a helpless smile.
