Chapter 25 Section 24 Dispute

"I need an explanation!" It was Sang Bu, who stood up from behind Chu Feng and said to Da Qi's back. After hearing this, Chu Feng's heart moved. Indeed, even he was baffled by many aspects of this operation. For example, if it was just to investigate the ruins, why were Da Qi and the others so vigilant all the way?There seems to be some danger!If it was to rescue the soldier who was unfortunately beheaded, why should outsiders like them be involved.In particular, it is said that the five of them were designated by the higher authorities to participate in this event.In fact, he was already full of doubts in his heart, but he believed in his friendship with Da Qi for many years. He felt that Da Qi must have a reason not to speak up, and he was unwilling to embarrass this comrade who had lived and died together in the past.

But Sangbu didn't have such scruples. Sangbu was very silent all the way, and his silence actually showed his attitude—this action was full of weirdness.It is said to be an investigation, but it actually has another purpose.This point, he knew from the fact that Daqi did not let Chu Feng and himself inspect those boulder piles. The fresh "head pile" in front of him made him understand that the purpose of this trip would never be simple. To perform such a task that might kill him, but not tell himself anything, Sangbu felt that Daqi owed him and others an explanation. "Explanation? What explanation?" Da Qi's tone was a bit harsh.

"What is the purpose of this trip? Why were we involved? We are just archaeologists, not special forces!" Sambu said bluntly, "We need to know the true intention of this operation. Along the way, I think you have hidden a lot from us. Now that this place has threatened everyone's life, do you still want to hide it from us?" "Yeah, Daqi, what can't you say? If it's a military secret, it's fine if you can't say it, but since we're allowed to participate in this operation, you have to tell us the truth!" Chu Feng adjusted his speech Tone, speak as gently as possible.

"Okay. If you must know, I will tell you that I concealed part of the facts about the discovery of the ruins I mentioned earlier. When the photographer was shooting here that day, he happened to encounter a group of armed people entering Here. As soon as the photographer came back, he found us to provide this information. Judging from the characteristics he described, those armed men with weapons happened to be one of our missing squads. The date of losing contact is exactly on that day!" After Daqi finished speaking in one breath, everyone fell into silence for a while. "So, you already knew that this operation was dangerous?" Sambu's tone became even worse.

"Da Qi, you still insist on letting a little girl like Ling Ning participate in such an action, I really don't know what to say about you! Alas!" After learning the truth, Chu Feng was also a little annoyed! "What? Are you scared? If you knew there was danger, you wouldn't have come here? Huh! Cowards!" Da Qi's words became more and more extreme. "You!" Sangbu stared, ready to get angry, but Chu Feng stopped him with his hand: "Da Qi, that's not what you said! You know, when I went to the battlefield with you, when were we afraid! But , your score is clear. The investigation of historical sites and rescue operations are two different things. Most of us are not capable of rescuing others. When things come to an end, we may need others to rescue us. You said that it is not a delay for you to bring so many people. What's the matter?" Chu Feng said sincerely.

"You know your people are delayed, and if it wasn't for your people's delay, we would have arrived! Look! Look at this head, I'm sure he was chopped off within two days, if it wasn't—if it wasn't ...Maybe we can save him!" Da Qi's voice choked up as he spoke, and the regret in his heart was strong enough to overwhelm his thoughts! "You!" Before Chu Feng said anything, Sang Bu was choked.At the beginning, no one had to beg to come, obviously he was the one who asked these people to come, but now he is relying on others to hold him back!Along the way, apart from the girl Ling Ning, his subordinate Wang Cong was the slowest, and his words were suspected of hitting him directly in the face.

Seeing that Sangbu's face was dark, Chu Feng hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Da Qi, that's not what you said. Since you want us to participate in this operation, you have to trust us. If you don't tell us anything, we will How did you know that you were rushing to save people? I admit that Ling Ning slowed down the speed of the team, but I didn't agree to let her come from the beginning. You insisted on her participation. Since you let her participate in such a high-intensity and dangerous operation , you should take everything into consideration! To be honest, can you tell me why such a dangerous operation requires a little girl like Ling Ning to participate?"

Da Qi first heard that there was still anger on his face, and when Chu Feng asked the last question, his face turned blue and white, changing for a long time, and finally sighed: "Oh! The five of you are asked to participate because the higher-ups want you to participate. There are some things I can’t say, but I’ve told you everything I can say!” He then turned around and faced Chu Feng and the two of them. After hearing this, Sangbu opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything, and turned back to the camp.Chu Feng looked deeply into Da Qi's eyes, and Da Qi faced him straight up without dodging or avoiding. After a long while, Chu Feng smiled: "Okay, Da Qi, we won't force you this time. I hope you can say You can tell us all the truth!"

"Little lunatic! Don't worry, I will!" Da Qi didn't smile, but agreed to the request straight away.As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and stared at the head pile, as if he wanted to stare at the flower from the wooden pile. "By the way, there are two newly erected head posts here. Except that the head on the top is your subordinate, who is the head on the other stake?" Chu Feng felt that not only one person was missing from Da Qi, but the others were also missing. Woolen cloth?Why don't you come to rescue your comrades?Could it be that their entire team was killed?

"I don't know! I can't recognize it anymore." Da Qi raised his eyes to look over there when he heard the words, and then shook his head.The human head had already been corrupted, and its true face could not be recognized. Judging from its degree of corruption, the person had been murdered for at least half a year.It can be seen from this that even the two wooden stakes were not erected at the same time. Chu Feng did not show any surprise when he got this answer. He stood behind Daqi for a while, turned around and saw Ling Ning, William and others were preparing dinner, and stopped talking. in the woods.

This forest is exactly opposite to the direction in which the head pile goes deep, that is to say, walking from this side will not offend those who put up the head pile—no matter who they are, Chu Feng feels that it is not appropriate to deal with them immediately. Soon, he returned with a pile of fragrant wild mushrooms in his hand.Hand these things over to Ling Ning: "Wash them well and add them to the pot. These are the special alpine tree mushrooms here! They can't be eaten anywhere else!" "Ah! It smells so good!" The girl couldn't resist such a fresh scent, "Can these wild mushrooms be eaten? Isn't it said that most of them are poisonous?" "Don't worry!" William expressed his blind admiration for Chu Feng, "The mushrooms picked by Brother Chu will definitely not be poisonous!" "Hmph!" Ling Ning pouted at him disdainfully, "Know how to flatter!" William made a grimace, disapproving. "Okay, it's not poisonous, wash it off!" Chu Feng interrupted them, it was late and everyone was hungry. Even though this place is far away from the head pile, at least you can't see the terrifying head, but the scene just now left an indelible impression on Ling Ning.There was a shallow stream beside the camp, only a dozen steps away from the camp, but she didn't dare to go alone: ​​"Brother Chu, can you accompany me to wash mushrooms by the stream?" "Well! Let's go!" Chu Feng also took this into consideration, and listened to her request, and immediately agreed! The mountain streams here are all formed after the glaciers melted snow, and this shallow creek less than 2 meters wide is the same.Its downstream is the swampy wetland that made Chu Feng and others trek for half a day, and its upstream is a small glacier.Having learned the lesson from being scolded by Sambu last time, this time Ling Ning carefully tested the water temperature with his fingers. "Ah!" As soon as his finger touched the water, Ling Ning shrieked and shrank back. "What's the matter?" Chu Feng was in a trance just now, so he didn't pay attention. Hearing her call, he came back to his senses, saw her holding a red finger, and asked hurriedly. "It's okay, it's just that the water is too cold!" Even though he was careful, the finger that Ling Ning used to test the water temperature turned red all of a sudden. Chu Feng was also on duty in the snowy plateau back then, so he didn't know what happened to her.Hurry up and hold her red finger, "Didn't I tell you that the temperature of the stream in this mountain is very low? Why are you still so careless!" Brother Chu's hands are so warm!Ling Ning let him hold his own finger, and couldn't help thinking.For a moment, he didn't know what to think of, and his blushing lowered, only a section of fair neck was exposed in front of Chu Feng's eyes. Chu Feng didn't notice at all at first. After he held Ling Ning's finger for a while, he breathed out vigorously and rubbed it for a long time: "Okay, it's going to be all right, really, how old is it? You can’t take care of yourself! If you suffer from frostbite, where can you find a hospital in the wilderness?” While talking, Chu Feng gradually felt something was wrong. What's wrong with this little girl?Where did the usual eloquence go?If she had been nagging like this, she would have jumped up a long time ago. What happened today?There is no movement at all?Seeing this shy look, Chu Feng really couldn't get used to it. The water temperature of the stream is too low, but this is not a problem for everyone. Everyone uses the tools they brought to pump up the water. Once the alcohol stove is heated, the water temperature goes up.This time, Chu Feng didn't let Ling Ning work, he washed the pine tree mushrooms he had picked, put them into the water and stewed, soon, the water gurgled, and the tempting aroma began to flow unstoppably Drill in people's noses. As the sun sets, the last ray of twilight misses this land for a long time, and I can't bear to go back for a long time.The forest was illuminated by the afterglow, as if it had been dyed a layer of gold, against the red clouds in the sky, each breath echoed each other, forming an indescribable beautiful picture! The altitude here is about 3,000 meters. Fortunately, none of the team members suffered from altitude sickness, except for Sangbu, William and Wang Cong, who were not in a good mood. William and Wang Cong have never seen such cruelty since they were so old.Wang Cong was better. He had never seen a fresh corpse, and he didn't know how many mummy corpses he had seen. He dared to carry his head on the road late at night, but this bloody head still made him feel very uncomfortable in his heart and stomach.Not to mention William, he has the palest complexion among these people. Although he also likes mountain climbing and adventures, it's just for fun after all, and this is a living head in front of him! Speaking of which, among the young people, Ling Ning performed the best. Her little face was still rosy at the moment, and she ignored those pale guys, busy following Chu Feng and making everyone's dinner.It made those few look at her with admiration. These few people didn't have much appetite at first, but they couldn't help but the aroma of Chu Fengcai's pine mushroom was really alluring, and the little girl Ling Ning was setting an example in front of her eyes, wasn't she just a fresh human head?The little girls of the family behaved indifferently, wouldn't it be embarrassing if a man like himself was so stimulated that he couldn't eat?Thinking of this, William and Wang Cong struggled to help Chu Feng and Ling Ning. As for the "little monk", Lao Xing and the others, due to Da Qi's call of first-level security, sentry posts were set up all around, but they have no ability to help these trivial matters. Just when the wild mushroom instant noodles were just in time, Ling Ning filled out the third bowl, and when the whole camp was filled with fragrance, there was a loud shout: "Who? Stop! Don't come here! I'm going to shoot!" On the north side of the camp guarded by Lin Yuxiang, the sharpest-eyed "Eagle" in Daqi's team, a thin and small figure was stopped in the shadow of the sun after sunset by his loud shout. "Don't, don't shoot! I'm not a bad person!" The voice was thin, like a little girl. "What's the matter?" Da Qi walked over with a gloomy face, and his mood was still stable. "Report to the captain, I found a suspicious person trying to approach our camp!" "Eagle" also knew that the captain was in a bad mood, so the report was very concise. In fact, they were all in a bad mood when they saw the head just now, but they were all just based on the friendship of Pao Ze and some of the mentality of fighting against the enemy. They were not too sad, but Da Qi was different. Anger is no longer enough to describe his mood. "Suspicious person?" Da Qi leaned over to see clearly: "Hey! Why are you?"
