Lu Yu continued to go deeper into the winding tunnel. Suddenly, his sharp eyes caught a few figures lying on the ground not far ahead.
He guessed that these people must have been knocked unconscious by his wife's drug. When he got closer, he saw that it was indeed the case.
These men armed with whips and sticks were probably going to beat the children I had captured.
"Damn it!" Lu Yu cursed.
These people were unconscious at the moment, but that didn't extinguish his anger towards the traffickers. These were inhumane things.
Out of caution and to calm his anger towards these human traffickers, Lu Yu raised his foot without hesitation and kicked each one hard.
Don't underestimate Lu Yu's seemingly casual kick, its power is amazing.
There was a crisp crack of bone, and the man who was kicked had several ribs broken instantly. The human traffickers, awakened by the pain, fainted again.
Lu Yu remained calm and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.
Along the way, the only light in the tunnel was the flickering oil lamp, which emitted a faint light. Apart from that, no other discoveries were made.
However, Lu Yu did not stop because of this. He remained highly vigilant and groped forward carefully step by step.
After a difficult and tortuous journey, a huge secret room finally appeared before our eyes.
This secret room is extremely spacious and open, like a huge underground treasure house.
The light in the room is dim, but you can still clearly see many boxes of different sizes and shapes placed there in an orderly manner.
Some of the boxes appear to be quite old, their surfaces covered with traces of time, exuding an ancient and old atmosphere, which makes people think of those long-forgotten past events.
However, in sharp contrast to this are another set of boxes, which are brand new and shiny, without any flaws, and have obviously just been placed there.
Lu Yu stood in place, scanning the boxes with sharp eyes.
Although he had not yet opened them one by one to examine them, with the experience he had accumulated over the years and his ability to perceive subtle changes in the surrounding environment, he was able to guess roughly what they were from the unique smell emanating from these boxes.
In addition, there were about ten children of all ages and four or five girls around fifteen or sixteen years old lying in the secret room.
Although these people were already unconscious, their expressions were still as follows: some looked terrified and huddled together tightly; others looked confused and at a loss. Although the girls were older, they could not hide the fear and anxiety on their faces.
In an inconspicuous corner of the secret room, a lot of diving equipment is neatly arranged, including oxygen cylinders, diving suits, fins, etc.
On one side of the secret room's wall, there stood a wooden ladder that stretched straight above the head and led all the way to the ground.
However, it is still unclear where the end of the ladder leads to and what secrets are hidden above the ground.
All signs indicate that this group of people here are by no means ordinary human traffickers.
Not only do they engage in the evil activity of human trafficking to make huge profits, they are also suspected of committing crimes such as illegally reselling cultural relics.
Moreover, judging from the clues left at the scene, they seemed to be involved in various mysterious organizational missions.
Lu Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm his pounding heart a little.
He calmed himself down and looked firmly at the wooden ladder in front of him, which looked old but was actually sturdy.
Without any hesitation, he resolutely raised his foot and stepped on the first step. Holding the handrails on both sides tightly with his hands, he began to climb up carefully but quickly.
Every step he took was extremely cautious. As he got closer and closer to the top of the tunnel, the doubts brought about by the unknown and the tension deep in his heart surged like a tide.
When he was finally about to reach the top, he tentatively raised his hand, but felt a heavy resistance.
He frowned, wondering if there was something pressing down on him from above. So he stopped pushing upwards and listened to the movements around him.
At first, apart from my own slightly heavy breathing, I could only hear the faint sound of waves hitting the shore and the whistling wind in the distance.
However, when he moved a little further out, the originally faint sound suddenly became clear and loud - it was the roaring sound of the rolling waves constantly hitting the shore!
Lu Yu jumped down from the high ladder with a swift movement and landed steadily on the ground. At this moment, the two new recruits from the special forces also caught up with him, panting.
One of them asked expectantly:
"Boss, what should we do next?"
As they spoke, both of them fixed their gazes on Lu Yu, their eyes full of admiration.
The two recruits had carried out many difficult missions with Guan Yunpeng, whom they regarded as their real boss. Every time, Guan Yunpeng's outstanding performance and outstanding ability amazed them and convinced them wholeheartedly.
However, after witnessing Lu Yu's demeanor with their own eyes today, they deeply realized what it means that there are always people better than you. It turns out that all the powerful things they had seen before were nothing compared to Lu Yu at this moment!
At this moment, the two recruits felt as if they were in a dream, secretly thinking that this experience was enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives.
Lu Yu naturally noticed their admiring eyes, which were as bright and blazing as twinkling stars.
However, he was not surprised at all. Because if he could go back in time, perhaps his then-self would also look at his current powerful self with such admiration.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu couldn't help but smile slightly.
The reason why he has such remarkable skills today is actually all thanks to his gentle and virtuous wife.
Whenever I encountered a bottleneck in training, she always gave me the most thoughtful encouragement and support; whenever I was exhausted, she also silently offered me her spiritual spring water...
Thinking of these warm moments, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel grateful. After completing this mission and returning home, he must thank his dear girl.
Oh no! I don't know when my thoughts started running wild like a wild horse, without any warning.
Lu Yu was startled and shook his head quickly, as if to get rid of all those messy thoughts.
