Chapter 439: The Stubborn Teammate 5
Chapter 439: The Stubborn Teammate 5
Luo Chen looked at the villagers who were chasing after her and could only resign herself to her fate. But this time she would not be foolish enough to walk to the front to explore the way.
So he pulled Rong Yuan to the back and said, "Brother, you go first, I'll cover you."
Li Yuanxin was stunned. At times like this, Luo Chen usually walked in front to explore the way: "I, I'll go first."
"Of course you walked to the front. Didn't you want to come in and discover the secret? I didn't want to come in." Luo Chen said as a matter of course.
Li Yuanxin had a bad feeling in his heart. Why did this woman seem like a different person?
Just when he was about to say something, Luo Chen interrupted him and said, "Brother, hurry up. I feel like those villagers are catching up with us."
Qin Haiying still wanted to be the leader, she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.
He immediately took over and said, “Yes, let’s go quickly. Yuan Xin and I will lead the way, and the people behind you will follow.”
Li Yuanxin didn't say anything else and could only follow Qin Haiying.
Luo Chen, who was walking at the end, sent a quick message to Jiang Lingcheng about the situation here while there was still signal before they went into the deep mountains and forests.
Jiang Lingcheng, who had just got off the plane, was very happy to see his daughter sending him a message. He was worried that his daughter was not close to him.
But when he saw the message, he immediately frowned, thinking that these people were simply too bold.
Knowing clearly that there was a problem in the village, a group of powerless people dared to go in and investigate without permission. If there really was a secret that could not be told, wouldn't they be in danger?
Jiang Lingcheng contacted the local police without even taking a break.
Luo Chen knew that Jiang Lingcheng had received the message, so he felt relieved. Now it just depended on when they would arrive.
Although her mission is to protect Rong Yuan, the remaining researchers are also living lives.
After calling the police, whether they can wait for the rescue team to arrive depends on their own luck.
I was walking at the back and was about to reach a place full of snakes, insects, rats and ants.
Luo Chen took out the insect repellent ointment he made from the space and applied it on himself and Rong Yuan. Sure enough, the small flying insects surrounding them flew away.
After walking for a while, everyone found that there were more and more insects, which was unbearable, so the researchers relied on the investigation they conducted when they came here.
He took out the anti-insect medicine bag he had prepared, but found that it didn't seem to be of much use. Luo Chen and Rong Yuan didn't say anything, just watched from behind.
Luo Chen was quite satisfied with this. At least his mother was not a saint. That was good. Otherwise, it would be very annoying.
After walking for about another hour, everyone felt a little tired, so they sat down to rest and eat something.
Rong Yuan was in a hurry to leave, so she left all her things in the hotel room and was pulled in as soon as she arrived.
She didn't have time to prepare anything. She saw that everyone had food, but she didn't prepare anything. She thought about borrowing some from Dr. Li for her daughter.
At this moment, Luo Chen took out a bottle of water from her backpack and handed it to Rong Yuan, and also took out some dried meat and snacks she made for Rong Yuan.
Rong Yuan took it in her hand and asked in surprise: "When did you prepare these things?"
"I've been ready since you received the call." Luo Chen whispered in Rong Yuan's ear.
"I've long seen that Qin Haiying in your team is ambitious but incompetent, and he's also a stubborn person.
I knew that the moment she entered, she would never leave easily, and my senior brother was a man who was attracted by beauty, so he would definitely support her to the end.
That’s why I kept you from coming back. I didn’t expect that. Alas.”
Rong Yuan sighed and said, "It's normal for young children to be eager for quick success."
"She is eager for quick success and is willing to gamble with the safety of all of you. She is really powerful." Luo Chen rolled his eyes.
Rong Yuan smiled and touched Luo Chen's face: "If I had known, I would not have brought you back and left you in the hotel waiting for your dad."
"How could I let you follow this jerk to such a dangerous place alone?
You must follow me closely. These villagers are so afraid of us coming into this place that I think they might be so bold as to kill someone.
So you must protect yourself, and let others fend for themselves." Luo Chen advised.
Rong Yuan sighed and nodded slowly.
She had been looking for her daughter for more than 20 years, and finally found her today. She also wanted to take her daughter back to enjoy family happiness.
And her husband is waiting for them to be reunited with their family, so she must get out alive.
Hearing that there seemed to be a large animal rushing towards them in the distance, Luo Chen found a place blocked by a large rock and pulled Rong Yuan over.
Then he placed the Breath-Invisibility Wall on his body to reduce the aura of both of them to the minimum.
After about ten minutes, the thing that looked like a wild boar but was not a wild boar ran over very agilely and started attacking everyone.
Seeing this, Li Yuanxin immediately took out his weapon and fought the beast, but he was not as agile as the beast.
I was hit by that thing a few times. Although I wasn't seriously injured, my body was in pain.
Qin Haiying was already frightened to death. He lay on the side and dared not move, watching the beast as it was about to kill someone.
Luo Chen picked up a few stones and threw them out. The beast felt a powerful force and left immediately.
It was at this time that Luo Chen ran out and asked everyone if anything was wrong.
"Yuan Xin, are you okay?" Qin Haiying came to his senses and immediately stepped forward to check.
"Senior brother, how are you?" Luo Chen asked.
Li Yuanxin sat on the ground, panting, and said, "Nothing, I'm fine. By the way, Junior Sister, where did you go just now? Why didn't you come to help me?"
Luo Chen squatted down, looked at him and said, "I helped you. If I hadn't thrown the stone and driven away the beast, you would have been hit by the stone now."
Li Yuanxin looked at Luo Chen with disbelief, he couldn't refute what he said.
As a grown man, he couldn't ask a woman why she didn't come out to fight the beast but instead hid and launched a sneak attack.
If he asked this question, Qin Haiying would probably doubt whether he was a man.
Everyone stood up and thanked Li Yuanxin and Luo Chen.
“You’re welcome, but after this incident, I think we should leave first.
Let's go back and find some people before coming back. We are alone with the ferocious beasts in front of us and the villagers who are eyeing us covetously behind us. I'm afraid we will be in danger."
Among them, Dr. Li was also frightened and said, "Yes, Professor Qin, let's go out first.
It's not possible for just a few of us, at worst we can go back and apply for a search warrant, and then bring the police to see if the villagers here have done anything bad."
Professor Qin was also a little frightened and didn't say anything.
Qin Haiying stood up and said, "No, we have come this far and are only one step away from success, how can we give up?
And if we go out now, we might run into those villagers, which would be even worse."
