Chapter 2572: Don’t shoot our own people
As for jadeite, I could only see a few that were close to the soil surface. After all, the mountain was so deep that it was impossible to see more, let alone all of them.
However, you can see some rough jadeite even close to the ground. There must be quite a lot of it at such a deep depth.
This mountain still belongs to the country and the family, and has not been bought by anyone.
So, she took the mountain first.
"Let's go back!" Gu Ning shouted. Now that it has been confirmed, let's go home.
"Ah! Not looking anymore? Or found it?" Baili Zongxue was stunned and asked. Although so, she felt that it was not Gu Ning's style to go back if he couldn't find it, so he must have found it.
"Yes! We found it. It's this mountain. But whether there is raw material inside depends on luck. In this business, it's all about gambling." Gu Ning said. Of course, she couldn't tell Baili Zongxue directly that she had seen it.
"Okay, let's go back!" Baili Zongxue believed almost everything Gu Ning said. She didn't understand anyway, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Then, the two returned the same way.
It was already half past eight in the evening and it had already gotten completely dark, but for them with their excellent night vision, there was no obstacle at all.
Therefore, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue still used Qinggong to go back. Then they were dozens of kilometers away from Rui City. The road was mountainous all the way, and it would take several hours to walk back.
However, they could not use light skills all the way, because using light skills is very physically demanding. So when their physical strength is consumed by 70% or 80%, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue will stop to rest for a while, walk for a while and then continue on their journey.
However, when they were taking a second break, and were about halfway back to the city, they suddenly heard gunshots, so Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue stopped immediately.
"Why were there gunshots?" Baili Zongxue asked in confusion, but she didn't need Gu Ning's answer. After all, they were together, and Gu Ning couldn't possibly know. She just asked subconsciously.
"This is the border between two countries. Criminals often hang out here and it's quite chaotic, so it's not surprising to hear gunshots. But we'll know what it is after observing it." Gu Ning said, not planning to leave immediately.
If they really are criminals, she would have to take care of them if she met them. Otherwise, most of these tasks would probably end up falling on the Red Flame Team.
"Yeah!" Baili Zongxue nodded. She was not afraid of the gunshots or criminals. After all, she was not an ordinary person.
Gu Ning immediately looked in the direction where the gunshots came from. Judging from the sound of the gunshots, the place where the gunshots came from was no more than a hundred meters away from him.
As I looked over there following the sound of gunfire, I soon saw a group of people running in the woods. There were seven of them in total, and they all had guns in their hands.
About twenty meters away from them, there were four people chasing after them. Gu Ning couldn't see their appearance clearly, but he felt that their figures were somewhat familiar.
Since he felt familiar, he must be someone she knew. Moreover, the only person who could chase the criminal under such circumstances could be Leng Shaoting's men.
However, Leng Shaoting was not among them. If Leng Shaoting was there, Gu Ning would be able to recognize him even if he was just seeing his silhouette.
Since it might be someone from the Red Flame Team, Gu Ning couldn't just stand by and watch.
"Follow me," said Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue.
Baili Zongxue didn’t know what Gu Ning was going to do, but she didn’t ask much. No matter what she was going to do, she would just follow her.
At the beginning, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue moved very quietly because they didn't want to be discovered for the time being. At this time, Gu Ning was not sure whether the people behind him were Leng Shaoting's men.
So I plan to get closer and see clearly before making any decisions.
The people in the front were running and shooting at the back, while the people behind were also shooting at the front. It was an open pursuit.
However, because it was night, the distance between them was not close, and they were running, so they did not hit each other.
Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue entered from the side. Although they moved lightly, their speed was still faster than theirs, so Gu Ning soon saw the appearance of the four people behind them.
Although their faces were painted with oil paint, Gu Ning could still recognize them as Xu Jingchen, Chen Meng, Zhao Lang and Ai Weishun.
Now that they have been identified, Gu Ning no longer needs to hide.
"The people behind are our own people. Let's go and kidnap the people in front. Don't take their lives, just injure them. They have guns, so be careful." Gu Ning said to Baili Zongxue. Gu Ning chose to come forward directly because they were following secretly, but now they were fighting openly, so in this situation, there was no need to ask Xu Jingchen and others first, they could just do it directly.
Anyway, their lives were not at stake, so after capturing them, Xu Jingchen and his team could interrogate them however they wanted.
"Okay," Baili Zongxue responded. Although she never attacked ordinary people easily, it was obvious that these people were criminals. If she attacked such people, the cultivation world would not pursue them. Besides, she didn't want to kill them, she just injured them.
Normally, she didn't have many opportunities to fight! So, she had been itching to fight for a long time, and after hearing what Gu Ning said, she was even more excited and couldn't wait.
Then, the two of them set out immediately. Almost in the blink of an eye, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue arrived in front of the group of people. Because they were so fast, these people were completely unprepared. They only reacted when they appeared in front of them.
After I realized what was happening, I was shocked. I didn't expect there was someone in front of me.
But seeing that they were just two girls and they were unarmed, they felt relieved. However, they would not be polite to anyone who blocked their way.
So, the people in front immediately pointed their guns at them.
Then there was movement. Before the guns were even pointed at them, they saw their bodies flash and rush towards them.
They were suddenly at a loss as although the gun fired, no one was hit. Then, there were sounds of collisions and wailing.
Xu Jingchen and the others who were chasing behind heard the sound and immediately felt a little strange. Did they hit one of their own? Although they didn't know what happened, they continued to aim. When they were about ten meters ahead, they heard a familiar female voice: "The one behind, it's one of ours, don't shoot or you'll accidentally hurt someone."
Hearing this voice, Xu Jingchen and others were stunned. Of course they recognized this voice, it was Gu Ning.
But why is Gu Ning here?
