Chapter 235 A Terrible Accident
Panic is the most contagious emotion.
After a scream, the whole team soon fell into chaos.
The tunnel was narrow, only wide enough for one person to pass through. People were scrambling to get forward, pushing and shoving each other, and immediately many people were trampled underfoot.
In the tunnel, there was originally a soldier stationed every ten feet to guide the way and maintain order in the tunnel.
But now the place was in chaos, with screams and cries everywhere. Ten feet was too far away, and the soldiers next to each other could not hear each other's voices at all, making it impossible to communicate and maintain order.
Zhi Luo and others who were far ahead saw that the team, which was originally marching well, suddenly jumped up for some reason and began to flee forward frantically.
A man pushed Zhiluo away fiercely and rushed over, stepping on her feet.
Zhi Luo was hit against the wall of the tunnel. He quickly leaned his back against the wider wall to avoid it and quickly ordered the soldiers accompanying him to maintain order among the crowd.
However, it was too late. A fat man was trying to rush forward, but he was suddenly stuck in a narrow part of the passage. He was immediately pushed down and trampled by the people behind him, and fell heavily to the ground.
Fear seemed to have driven everyone mad.
No one paid any attention to the fat man on the ground with blood coming out of his mouth and nose. They just stepped on his back and head and kept rushing forward.
One after another, they stepped on it, fell down, and were stepped on by others.
Zhi Luo had no time to react before the tunnel was completely blocked. People were overlapping and squeezed together, stepping on each other, trying to squeeze out, but no one could move at all.
A woman stretched out her long arms from the crowded crowd, trying to reveal her almost deformed face, and pleaded with Zhi Luo:
"Help... I... I can't breathe..."
A man tilted his head back, staring with bloodshot eyes, unable to speak at all, and could only let out weak, tearful gasps.
A child was crying, and soon the sound died down.
Zhi Luo was so frightened by the scene that she fell to the ground. Looking at the "human ball" squeezed into a ball, with arms reaching out to her and faces gradually turning blue and distorted, she was so scared that she stepped back step by step and even forgot to pull out a hand.
In a short while, the huge "human ball" was lifeless.
A dozen twisted gray arms mixed with several bloodshot faces looked extremely terrifying.
The tunnel slowly fell into a despairing silence.
Zhi Luo felt cold all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and began to tremble uncontrollably.
This sudden and terrible accident frightened her so much that she retreated unconsciously, and retreated again and again, until there was nothing behind her and she fell into an open space as big as a room.
This is a dirt hole in the tunnel specially used for people to rest. Twenty miles is too long, so they must replenish supplies and rest in the middle, and they must also ventilate to keep the air sufficient for breathing.
"Master Military Advisor... this... this seems to be the first earth hole coming from Guying City..." a soldier said in horror.
Zhi Luo then realized that the terrifying human ball in front of him was not only blocking the escape route, but also enough air to take the lives of everyone behind it.
The people at the end of the team and Luo Dongdong and others may suffocate to death due to lack of air!
"Captain Luo...Captain Luo!!" Zhi Luo finally realized the suffocating and desperate situation before her. She rushed over to push the ball, but it didn't move at all.
Several soldiers took turns pushing, but it couldn't move at all.
A soldier gritted his teeth and drew his sword, "Military Advisor, how about... how about..."
Looking at the sharp blades in the soldiers' hands, and then at the dead "human ball", Zhi Luo shuddered, closed his eyes, and gave an order in a trembling voice that was almost distorted:
"Get started... dig the road!"
…
…
Three hours later, the sky fell into the deepest darkness before dawn.
No one knew that in the underground tunnels on the Western Front, a brutal and brutal excavation of corpses and roads was taking place...
Outside Guying City, Huo Gannian led the Lion Army in a fierce battle, still trying to buy time for the rescue inside the city.
In Guying City, a large group of Black Scale Cavalry were still chasing Yun Chen. They were being led around by the nose and gradually moving away from the last tunnel entrance on the southwest line.
Yun Chen took advantage of his familiarity with the terrain and tried to shake off the enemy while looking around the city.
Seeing that all the houses were empty, she lit the highest firework signal into the sky.
Fireworks exploded, and the brilliant colors represented the successful completion of the rescue.
At the last tunnel entrance of the tunnel rescue line that Yun Chen was responsible for, the soldiers who had been waiting for Yun Chen for a long time but he did not show up saw the signal and immediately pulled the last few girls from the brothel and prisoners from the dungeon into the tunnel, then closed the secret panel and kicked down the supporting pillars.
Huo Gannian outside the city immediately sounded the call to retreat and began to lead the Lion Army to retreat.
This rescue operation, which can be described as the Lion Army soldiers "trading their lives" to save the common people, is finally coming to an end.
Everyone was retreating away from Guying City.
Only Yun Chen was still in the city, and he was trying his best to escape on horseback.
She remembered that there was a gap in the city wall behind a deep alley in the south of the city, leading directly to the moat, which could allow her to escape.
She galloped along the route she remembered, with the Black Scale Cavalry chasing her closely.
In the distance, she saw the gap in the city wall, through which the water of the moat could be vaguely seen flowing.
There were only seven or eight Black Scale Cavalrymen guarding the gap, and she was confident that she could kill them and escape.
Gripping the reins and holding the Bloodthirsty Sword tightly, she crouched low, ready to charge.
Just then, she caught a glimpse of a shop not far away, which looked like a small business selling game.
The plaque in front of the door had fallen off and everything was in ruins, but two long rows of dried snake meat were still hanging on the door beam.
The snake skin fluttered in the wind, reminding her of someone—
Yan Nineteen.
When these three words suddenly appeared in Yun Chen's mind, without any hesitation, she pulled the reins hard at the gap in the city wall, turned her horse's head at the door that was only one step away from the chance of escape, and rushed into the city again.
Her movements were so decisive and swift that even the Black Scale Cavalry were stunned. They slowed down in surprise, giving her the opportunity to escape.
There was one place that Zhiluo forgot when he was formulating the rescue plan, Huo Gannian forgot it, and Yun Chen almost forgot it as well.
That was the only place in the city that no one cared about, hidden deep in the deepest part of the Caishikou White Bone Square.
Guying City Death Row.
