Chapter 399 Traveling together
Li Gangtie looked a little strange, thinking, his understanding of "pit" should be different from that of the comrade in front of him, right?
So, we walked in silence all the way, and after a few minutes, we finally saw the four people trapped in the giant wheat pit.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they cheered. Shen Yanming also pretended to be overwhelmed by the huge surprise and hugged Yu Shui and Zhu Shiliang together.
When their excitement had almost died down, Li Sikai yelled at Li Gangtie, "Old Tie, get me up there first. Look at where we are. Isn't it nice to be high above?"
"It's pretty cool, haha! Well, we still need people to load the wheat down there, so you can just do it down there." Then he looked at the guards he brought with him and said, "Half of them go down to help Captain Li, and the rest of them go up there to provide support."
Shen Yanming's eyes flashed, and he was about to jump down. Li Sikai was sharp-eyed and quickly stopped him: "Yanming, wait a minute, I'll clear these stones. You haven't been trained and can't control the strength, so don't bump into anything."
"That's fine, thanks a lot, brother!" Shen Yanming said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, his colleagues asked, "Do you two know each other? You have quite a wide network of contacts!"
"Yes, friend!" Shen Yanming smiled and didn't elaborate. The brothers who had just gone over to report the news didn't introduce their identities in detail, so Shen Yanming naturally wouldn't say much.
Seeing that they couldn't get any information out of him, the others gave up their curiosity and helped to move the stones out.
As for how to move it, there was really no good way. They tied a rope to a sack and let it down, then picked up the stones and put them into the sack, and finally asked someone to pull the sack up.
After the stones in the pit were almost cleared, Li Sikai asked people to jump down to help. Of course, they had to jump one by one, and those in the pit moved aside first.
Li Gangtie did not go down. He led his men to move the supplies from the truck to an open space nearby, and then took out all the sacks used to hold supplies and threw them into the pit. Of course, there were also hemp ropes, one end of which was held in the hands of the guards and the other end was thrown into the pit.
"You guys load it first. When it's full, tie the rope and call us to pull it. Once we've filled the truck with supplies, go back and report so Captain Qin can see what to do with it." Li Gangtie said.
"Well, remember to keep quiet. Yuncheng may not spread the news."
Li Gangtie nodded, and then solemnly told everyone to keep their mouths shut.
In this way, a group of people divided the work clearly and got busy. Shen Yanming found a corner in the pit and poured wheat into it with a sack. He disliked the gloves that were in the way, so he took them off and threw them aside.
When the sack was almost full, he tied a rope and asked people to pull it away, then he continued to pull another sack and fill it with wheat.
In fact, Shen Yanming was putting it away as he was loading it. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to touch this batch of grain openly today. He poked his hand into the wheat and then released some from the space, so that no one would know.
But he had to change the location occasionally to prevent the wheat pit from looking uneven. Moreover, he did not dare to be too presumptuous, otherwise if the grain in the pit did not decrease, wouldn't it be a clear sign to others that something was fishy?
As Shen Yanming collected and put away the things, he also had to pay attention to the movements around him, and he couldn't help sweating. He raised his hand to wipe his forehead and cheeks. Without realizing it, his handsome face had become almost like a tabby cat.
Almost everyone who was loading food downstairs did the same thing, so no one laughed at anyone else.
It was too busy here, and Yuan Ruoxi, who was standing at the door of the small warehouse, could no longer sit still. She looked around, and when she saw no one was around, she ran over in small steps.
"It's so lively here!" Yuan Ruoxi exclaimed.
In the past, she always went on missions with Li Sikai and the other six people, hiding from others. Later, she teamed up with the guards from South City, but they were always "awed" by the fairies and had no intention of getting close to them.
Alas, life in the cloud is too lonely, and I would like to get some human touch occasionally.
Yuan Ruoxi's shout stopped the busy guards. They were all thinking, where the hell did this woman come from? What's her purpose in coming here?
Therefore, everyone's gaze changed from surprise at the beginning to vigilance.
"Madam, who brought you here and what is your purpose? You should know that this is a mission area and no outsiders are allowed in!" Li Gangtie pushed through the crowd and asked with a dark face and a loud voice.
Yuan Ruoxi was startled and took a step back, saying, "Where's Li Sikai? I'm going to find him!"
Big Black Face frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied, thinking, "What is this little bastard Li Sikai doing? He actually brought his delicate little girlfriend with him when he was on a mission? Even Shen Yanming settled his pregnant wife so that he could work without distractions."
Zhou Qi was a local and had more sources of information than Li Gangtie. He had a guess in his mind, but he was not sure. So he poked Da Hei Lian and asked him to go in and ask, so as not to offend people for no reason without knowing the situation.
The two had worked together for such a long time that they had some tacit understanding. After nodding slightly, he said to Yuan Ruoxi, "Then wait here, little girl. I'll go in and verify my identity with Li Sikai."
Yuan Ruoxi was somewhat dissatisfied, but she did not dare to act tough. She always felt that the other party had an inexplicable hostility.
Because of the cement, steel bars, and aluminum alloy plates surrounding them, the people in the pit didn't know what was happening outside until Li Gangtie walked in and asked angrily, "Li Sikai, what's wrong with you? You actually brought your girlfriend with you on a mission. Aren't you afraid of being punished?"
Li Sikai was confused at first, but then he reacted and said to Sun Sainan who was pulling food bags on the pit: "Go and see if it's Yuan Ruoxi. If it is, go to the small warehouse first. That guy really can't stay idle for a moment."
Sun Sainan did not refuse. She handed the hemp rope in her hand to someone else and left.
At this time, Li Sikai explained: "The one outside is most likely my target for this mission, Yuan Ruoxi. I originally arranged for her to guard a small warehouse we found. I'm afraid she heard the noise here and came here."
"The target of the mission is a woman?" Li Gangtie was puzzled. "Then why did you bring her to the mission site? Aren't you afraid of problems?"
Li Sikai did not hide anything and said directly: "Because she is the only one with spatial ability at present."
These words exploded in everyone's ears like thunder, and everyone was extremely shocked.
Shen Yanming was even more shocked. His eyes widened and his hands stuck in the wheat shook unconsciously. He quickly stopped putting the grain in, fearing that he would be exposed in front of this "colleague".
