Chapter 517 Resolving the Crisis 2
It cannot be said that Ghost Shadow Hall is conceited and did not add more manpower to the back mountain. Rather, even the most authoritative bomb disposal experts find it difficult to ensure safe passage through a large minefield.
In particular, the Li family's secret guards are not experts.
The only expert, Liu Mi looked at Li Nanli.
Fu Zhi took out a flashlight and a dagger from the medicine box and looked at the time. There were only about twenty minutes left before the people from the Ghost Shadow Hall could attack the house.
Time was of the essence, so she immediately ordered, "Everyone, retreat to the back hills and leave the minefield."
Get out of the minefield?
What kind of situation is this? How can she still say such things!
They walked through the minefield, and without waiting for the Ghost Shadow Hall to catch them, they would blow themselves up first?
Xiang Qian took a deep breath, "We won't leave! If you want to leave, go by yourself! I tell you, once the minefield explodes, not to mention that the Ghost Shadow Hall will rush up to arrest people as soon as they hear the movement, our brothers must die with dignity, not in such a cowardly way..."
"Swish——".
The dagger in Fu Zhi's hand was pointed directly at Qian. Her extremely eye-catching face was full of frost and she looked unruly. The air pressure around her suddenly dropped.
"I won't move you, because the battle is about to begin. But if you say anything else, a secret guard who doesn't know how to obey orders..."
She paused in the middle of her words, and her abrupt ending was even more frightening than if she had said it clearly.
Xiang Qian was so scared that he swallowed and took a step back.
Fu Zhi looked around the room and said, "Now, everyone, evacuate in an orderly manner and leave the minefield. Does anyone have any objections?"
Oh, they do have some opinions.
But she was holding a dagger and looked ferocious. Isn't this violent suppression?
Everyone turned their eyes to Gu Yanqi and spoke one after another.
"Mr. Gu, please say something! We don't have a professional bomb disposal expert. It would be so embarrassing if someone got killed while walking!"
"Master Gu, let's just wait in the hut! Even if they want to attack, given our geographical location, they won't be able to gain much advantage in a short time!"
"Yes, Master Gu, if we delay a little, reinforcements might arrive! Even the people from Ghost Shadow Hall don't dare to go to the back mountain, so why should we risk going to the minefield!"
“…”
The secret guards said one by one that none of them supported such a risky and unpopular method of walking through the minefield.
A little girl is a little girl after all.
Having never seen a big scene, she always fantasizes that a non-professional like her can be lucky enough to escape from the minefield.
The deputy captain of the secret guard team looked at Fu Zhi. Compared with Xiang Qian's suspicion and disdain for Fu Zhi, he was obviously more easy-going and said, "Miss Fu, we sent out a distress signal early in the morning. There is still hope if we delay and wait for others to rescue us!"
Hearing this, Fu Zhi smiled, raised his hands and put on his coat. His legs were thin and long under the windbreaker. His eyes were slanted and emotionless, and his voice was clean and cold. "Are you sure your signal has been sent out? When will your people come, and when will the people outside rush in?"
"How long do you think you can hold out? Or are you still begging for someone to save you?"
She opened the back door and reminded, "This is abroad, in the back hills of Xiangyun Street, not China, nor the territory controlled by the Li family."
The deputy captain's face changed slightly, and he opened his mouth, but was a little speechless.
Fu Zhi is right.
For more than three hours, they did not receive any other support except the woman in front of them. This alone proved that their distress signal had been intercepted long ago.
No one will come to save them, but they are hoping in their hearts that there is still a glimmer of hope.
"In addition to ordinary land mines, there are also many trip mines in the minefield. Miss Fu, do you have any way to get out of the minefield?"
Fu Zhi opened her thin lips and said, "Mine clearance."
Mine clearance?
How to arrange?
Who will queue?
Throw a pheasant or rabbit running in front?
But when a landmine explodes, there will be a sound, and once the sound is heard, the people from the Ghost Shadow Hall will be dispatched.
Let someone lead the way?
Who to release?
Who has the professional skills to ensure that there are no landmines and choose a safe route for everyone?
Liu Mi stepped out, "I'll do it!"
He looked at Fu Zhi with the kind of gaze that an old father would give to his son in Baidi City, with the greatest hope for his son's happiness before his death. He held Fu Zhi's hand and said, "Miss Fu, if you win, it's my life, if you die, it's my luck. I only have one wish, if you and Mr. Li are lucky enough to escape, you treat him better, he has stomach problems, three meals a day... That's all, let's not talk about your sadomasochistic love for now, time is running out, let me talk about my eighty-year-old mother's health..."
As soon as he uttered the word "body", a pair of hands were ruthlessly thrown away by Fu Zhi.
Fu Zhi walked out of the house, his figure gradually blending into the night, "Follow me."
What? !
Follow behind her? !
Liu Miyi said sternly, "How can this be possible?"
No, it's not a question of whether it works or not. Liu Mi felt that Fu Zhi was a girl who valued her life and was stingy. After thinking about it, his fear seemed to have dissipated a lot. "Miss Fu, can you clear mines?!"
"Um."
A very faint sound.
A big boss is the kind who usually keeps a low profile but never lets down his team at critical moments.
Fu Zhi said, "Well, that should be the real deal."
Liu Mi's pupils were shocked, as if he saw the joy of life. He stopped following Fu Zhi and waved back, "Mr. Gu! You give the orders, and we will follow Miss Fu's arrangements!"
Many people in the dark guard team were dissatisfied.
But Gu Yanqi nodded. With him around, the others were suppressed and could only obey orders.
Let Yu Sheng and Jiang Yuan take Li Nanli with them.
The others automatically followed in a row at the end.
The minefield covers half of the back mountain, which makes people feel scared at the sight of it.
Gu Yanqi walked beside Fu Zhi and lowered his voice, "Who did you learn mine clearance from? Is it a systematic training? Are you sure it's okay?"
"Sure." Fu Zhi said calmly, "I have read books on professional knowledge and have some small experiences."
Gu Yanqi: “???”
What the hell?
What have you seen?
"No, you haven't tried it, haven't you practiced it?!"
Gu Yanqi felt unwell.
If he didn't have the secret guards behind him, and if he didn't know that he couldn't mess with other people's mentality now, he would definitely smash Fu Zhi's head to see if there was glue inside!
“It’s not like I haven’t put it into practice.”
Fu Zhi comforted him, "Aren't we going to put it into practice soon?"
Gu Yanqi couldn't control Fu Zhi anymore and shouted, "Liu Mi, try to persuade her!"
Liu Mi advised seriously, "Ms. Fu, you can have fun or make trouble, but don't make fun of Brother Lei."
Obviously, Fu Zhi didn't take what these two people said to heart.
He squatted down, turned on the flashlight, and rushed forward.
Gu Yanqi wanted to grab her collar and pull her back, but it was too late. His hand hanging in the air overestimated Fu Zhi's altitude and only grabbed air.
Gu Yanqi: “…”
Is it really God's will that he die?
They had already started and there was no way they could turn back halfway. Gu Yanqi was the first to come back to his senses and followed behind Fu Zhi, feeling anxious.
"Keep some distance from me. If it explodes," he said to Liu Mi who was walking behind him, "you can at least survive."
Liu Mi: "...Not necessarily, Mr. Gu, I think these mines are connected, right?"
Gu Yanqi had so many words to say, but he only condensed them into one sentence, "Then let's die together."
——
The team moved very slowly and time passed by every second.
Xiang Qian's patience faded, and he asked Yu Sheng in front of him, "How long will we go on? Why did Master Gu insist on believing her? A little girl, after watching a few movies, thinks she can save the world! What does she know about minefields and how to clear them?!"
"Xiang Qian, please say less."
"Why should I say less? Do you believe she is capable? Don't forget, Young Master Jiang said that she is arbitrary and dictatorial. It is unclear whether she is a spy or not. Sooner or later, she will kill people!"
“But it was indeed she who cured Mr. Li’s injury. Don’t call her a spy so harshly. The fact that she was able to come to the mountain to find Mr. Li, ask yourself, not all girls can do that.” Yu Sheng couldn’t help but retort.
Xiang Qian held the backpack in his hand, his eyes red as he looked at his teammates who were unwilling to join him. "They are boyfriend and girlfriend, and that is her responsibility. Besides, if it were someone else, how would you know that no one would do better than her? Walking in a minefield, she actually thought of it. If something really went wrong..."
"What could possibly happen? What do you want to happen?!"
Not to mention Yu Sheng, this time Jiang Yuan beside him couldn't stand it anymore, "Don't say such harsh words! We are all on the same boat now, if you don't wish her well, then you are hoping that all of us will die together!"
"I'm not—"
"Yu Sheng, let's go! Don't pay attention to him!"
…
"I only checked the minefield once. I marked all the mines and trip mines along this route. Of course, I may have missed some to save time. Tell them to pay attention to areas with shallow soil and loose soil."
Fu Zhi patted the mud on his hands, and Gu Yanqi said, "It looks like we can get out of this area in ten more minutes."
As long as they get out of the mountain, Gu Yanqi will be able to contact the Huo family. The Li family includes people from the Gu family. With manpower and weapons, they can ensure that they have the ability to annihilate the Ghost Shadow Hall.
For more than ten minutes, not a single explosion was heard in the minefield in the entire back mountain.
The dark guards who originally had objections to Fu Zhi's idea all shut up with mixed feelings.
After leaving the minefield is the nearest winding mountain road.
The further we move forward, the faster the team moves and the more relaxed we feel.
Until a cry of suppressed fear came from behind, "Xiang Qian——!"
Gu Yanqi paused and looked back.
Xiang Qian was seen standing a few meters away from the group of people, with sweat on his forehead, motionless.
Gu Yanqi's heart suddenly sank, "What's going on?"
"Master Gu, Xiang Qian, Xiang Qian stepped on a landmine..."
Yu Sheng's eyes were red, and he was so anxious that he choked up, "What should I do...what should I do...Mr. Gu...please think of a way to save Xiang Qian! He is really just a child!"
