Chapter 222: Leicheng, can it really heal the regrets?

The Wang family and Boss Jiao's subordinates who were left behind each performed their duties, some checking and some keeping on guard.

The head of the Wang family looked at the interior of the tower and guessed that this might be the Leicheng he was looking for. He then received a notification from his subordinates that a door had been found.

The eldest of the Wang family immediately ran towards the stone gate. The passage of Liubeiqu was very long.

After walking a few dozen steps, an arched entrance appeared in front of me. The entrance was one person tall and very dark inside.

Everyone immediately turned on their flashlights and continued to move forward. They opened several doors in succession and passed four or five towers of the same style.

Everyone discovered that these towers were connected to each other, which meant that the ninety-nine towers formed a whole.

As soon as they stopped, Liu Sang reported the emergency situation behind them, and everyone immediately quickened their pace and followed the Liubei Canal.

Chasing closely behind, everyone was circling along the corridor at the bottom of the square tower. When they were almost dizzy, Bai Haotian, who was running in the front, suddenly stopped.

Fatty Wang was confused and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There is no way!" Bai Haotian replied immediately.

Wu Suowei looked at the place where Liubei Canal finally disappeared and found that it was an underground water flow.

It is inlaid with stone slabs all around, and the entrance is square with two rows of steel nails as thick as wrists. Water constantly converges here.

Wu Suowei pointed at the river and said, "The road is right under your feet. Look at the undercurrent. It should be the way out. There is a passage under the water."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Haotian immediately ran towards the undercurrent, squatted on the ground and listened, then asked in confusion: "How did you know this again?"

"The water flow told me." Wu Suowei shrugged.

"Tsk, then I'll go take a look first." Bai Haotian looked at Wu Xie and asked the team leader for permission to go into the water to explore. Just when a conflicted look appeared on Wu Xie's face.

Liu Sang's voice came: "Someone is coming!"

Boss Jiao's tracking speed did not leave anyone time to think as soon as they heard Jiusang's notification.

Everyone immediately began to deploy their troops, pointing their guns at the entrance. Now the safest place was underwater.

Wu Xie immediately warned: "Be careful."

After giving the order, he used the stone pillar to hide his figure and looked towards the entrance.

Liu Sang was paying attention to the movements of the enemy. When Boss Jiao's figure appeared at the entrance, Liu Sang shot the enemy three times in a row.

Three more of Boss Jiao's men died, but this did not arouse people's sympathy. Instead, it served to boost people's morale.

Hit the opponents one by one without showing any mercy. It is much easier to get rid of the opponents with a gun in hand.

Watching Boss Jiao's subordinates hiding here and there, everyone felt as if they were turning over a new leaf and singing.

Wu Suowei looked at the Wang family members hiding near the entrance and Boss Jiao's subordinates who kept coming over, and a smile appeared on his face.

As a partner, he still takes some care of the Wang family.

As for Ye Lu Zi, one of Boss Jiao's men, he showed no mercy and kept shooting at Ye Lu Zi's legs with his rifle. Although he couldn't kill him, he left him disabled.

After a while, the sound of the pistol gradually disappeared, and Wu Xie and Black Glasses had no more bullets.

Lacking two helpers, the firepower was brought back. Wu Xie turned his head to look at the underground river and looked at his watch again.

Bai Haotian has been in there for three minutes now, and there is still no movement. For some reason, the two rows of steel nails at his wrists on the water surface began to shrink inward.

Wu Xie immediately ran over and tried to stop the mechanism from closing, but he found that it was impossible to stop it from closing inwards with human power.

"Oh shit! This is a mechanism!" Fatty Wang shouted anxiously.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, where is the switch?" Wu Xie asked anxiously.

"Everyone in there, get out of here, we can't control it anymore." Wu Suowei said to the two men who were running towards the mechanism and trying to pull it back.

Noticing that bullets were gradually hitting him, Fatty Wang immediately grabbed Wu Xie and said, "Hide quickly."

As the voice fell, the bullet hit the two men's feet. Fatty Wang grabbed Wu Xie and ran towards the tower wall.

The team's gunfire gradually became less frequent, but Boss Jiao's team seemed to have endless bullets.

Under the suppression of powerful firepower, Liu Sang on the first line of defense retreated immediately, while Black Glasses on the second line of defense held on to the tower wall tightly, not daring to come out at all.

Wu Suowei, who was on the third line of defense, threw his gun directly at Boss Jiao's men, and the guy on the fourth line of defense held the hilt of the knife.

Fatty Wang, the last line of defense, let go of Wu Xie's hand and listened to the sound of the mechanism opening. A fierce look appeared on his face: "If you don't return the favor, you are not a gentleman!"

As he spoke, he lit a bundle of detonators. This circle of detonators consisted of more than a dozen of them, so it would be no problem even blowing up a building.

The fat man ran towards the third line of defense where Wu Suowei was standing with the detonator in his hand. After seeing the entrance, he threw it directly to the other side: "Let me give you a big gift!"

Boom~!

The huge vibration caused the ground of the giant tower to shake. Outside the entrance, Boss Jiao's men suffered heavy losses and screamed in agony!
The people on this side kept waving away the dust in front of them, and Wu Xie even coughed a few times. Bai Haotian's voice came: "Quick, there is indeed a passage inside."

"Retreat quickly!" Fatty Wang shouted.

"Let's go, get in the water!" Wu Xie echoed.

The team members jumped into the water one after another and watched Boss Jiao's people gathering together. Fatty Wang, who was addicted to blasting, lit another bundle of detonators and threw them into the crowd.

"Fatty, I'll give you another big gift!" The fat man said and went towards the dark passage.

With a loud bang, the earth continued to shake, the giant tower began to tremble, and pieces of the buildings on it began to fall off and collapse. Boss Jiao's men were reduced again.

Ding ding! Boss Jiao walked steadily along the Liubei Canal with his cane, looking calmly at the dead bodies lying on the ground, neither sad nor happy.

Seeing the Wang family boss coming, he asked, "What's going on inside?"

When asked, the Wang family boss knew that he was not asking about casualties, but about the entrance. The Wang family boss immediately replied:
"The entrance inside has been blocked. Even if we start digging now, it will take more than ten days."

Ten days, Boss Jiao nodded grimly. Ten days, after ten days, it is possible that the treasure will be emptied.

With competitors ahead, it’s urgent to obtain the treasure of Leicheng. This road is blocked, so find another way!

Boss Jiao said confidently: "There must be more than one canal leading to Leicheng. There must be another way leading to Leicheng."

On the other side, Wu Suowei and his group came to a valley. The buildings in the valley looked like a temple, surrounded by mountains and water, with birds singing and flowers blooming.

After arriving here, everyone first set up camp here, and then carefully took in the surrounding scenery.

Bai Haotian wiped his hair, and said, "I didn't expect the secret passage to lead to this side. It looks quite safe."

Fatty Wang nodded and said, "I think this place is good. I dare not say where it is, but at least there is meat to eat and we won't starve."

After listening to Fatty Wang swallowing his saliva, Wu Xie asked, "Fatty, do you still remember that mural with a waterway that went through the other side of the mountain? This is probably the place."

Before he could finish his words, Bai Haotian suddenly interrupted and asked, "Leicheng?"

Everyone smiled without saying anything, confirming Bai Haotian's guess. Black Glasses came over from not far away and confirmed:
"Yes, this is Leicheng. I looked around and the terrain here is exactly the same as in the mural, but this place is just the edge." "Where is the main city? We still have to look for it!"

So we still need to spend some time to study a little, find the general direction of the inner city, and rest.

Wu Xie patted Fatty Wang's wound, causing Fatty to gasp in pain.

Hearing Bai Haotian talking about warming himself by the fire, the fat man stretched out his claws towards Liu Sang: "Hey, back, Sang's back."

Puzzlement appeared on Liu Sang's face. He walked up to the fat man and his eyes turned. He immediately thought that the fat man didn't want to walk on his two legs anymore, so he just took a detour.

The fat man watched Wu Suowei also go over and light the fire with a smile on his face, then he stretched out his claws towards the man with black glasses.

Seeing Black Glasses going over to look for something, Fatty Wang sighed, covered his wound with a Band-Aid, and went to find a comfortable place to lie down.

The days of adventure are very different from the previous days in Wuzhou. Adventure is for the purpose of living a better life in Wuzhou.

The lavish spending in Wuzhou also laid the foundation for the disastrous adventure.

Three young men gathered together to collect firewood, piled the dead branches together, and lived a rare leisurely life in the mountains.

Bai Haotian took a borrowed lighter and grabbed a handful of dead leaves. He lit them and pushed them onto the dead branches. Although the dead leaves were easy to ignite, the flames would ignite upwards when piled on top.

With a "swoosh", the dead leaves turned into ashes. Bai Haotian looked at the dead branches emitting black smoke with a confused look on his face: "What's going on?"

Liu Sang, holding firewood, smiled but said nothing.

Wu Suowei covered his forehead with his hands because of a headache. Fire needs to be hollow and people need to be humble. Firewood is not natural gas and can't be ignited just by piling it on top.

He pointed and explained to Bai Haotian the technique of lighting firewood. Bai Haotian listened vaguely and said, "Is it so troublesome?"

"Aha." Wu Suowei stuffed the dead leaves under the dead branches and nodded.

Suddenly, Bai Haotian's eyes flashed, and it looked as if the small light bulbs next to his brain cells had lit up.

This expression made Wu Suowei feel cold in his heart: "What are you going to do?"

"Actually, I thought of a simpler method that is very simple." Bai Haotian said with a smile.

"What method?" Wu Suowei asked puzzledly.

"Roasting a fire is actually quite simple. As long as we keep bleeding you, we can keep roasting a fire. Boom!"

Bai Haotian pretended that there was a raging fire.

Seeing this, Wu Suowei's mouth twitched, and then he shook his head and smacked his lips and said, "If you don't have a blood transfusion, you don't know how precious blood is."

With a crackling sound, the dead branches began to burn. Liu Sang placed the firewood he had picked up on the ground beside him and said:
"What Fatty said is right. This place is beautiful with mountains and rivers, and the most lacking thing is not food. I'll go look around. Maybe I can get lucky and shoot a few swans."

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's time to improve our lives." Wu Suowei said with a smile.

As soon as Liu Sang left, only Wu Suowei and Bai Haotian were left beside the fire, placing firewood on the blazing fire.
On the other side, Fatty Wang lay down against a stone. The green grass was lush and there was a hint of coolness under the warm sun. He felt comfortable.

He checked the wound and found it very uncomfortable to put a Band-Aid on it. So he took it off and Fatty Wang felt a little dizzy because there was so much blood.

He threw it into the bushes without worrying about it, and watched from afar as the man with black glasses came hopping towards him with a saber in his mouth and a box in his hands.

Without any hesitation, Fatty Wang squatted beside him and immediately instructed:
"Hey, blind man, you have to use all your life's learning, don't fool me!"

Lifelong learning? Black Glasses' eyes lit up and he glanced around. It really looked like a wheat field laboratory.

First he dissected the body and then he sutured it. After many twists and turns, Fatty Wang was still a healthy man. Then he raised his saber with a "whoosh".

Seeing that he was really going to use all his life's learning, the fat man shuddered and immediately reminded him:
"Hey, blind man, half of my life is in your hands, please don't be too harsh, okay?"

"I have a plan!" Black Glasses untied his gloves and showed Fatty Wang the wound on his hand. He said:
"I have a good friend from whom I learned a lot"

Looking at the stitches, the fat man nodded. Noticing that the man with black glasses was about to use a knife, the fat man immediately picked up a wooden stick:
"We have a special relationship, please be gentle."

"let me consider it."

Feeling the slight pain in his body, Fatty Wang, who was biting the wood, cried out: "Oh, how unlucky! How did I get hurt?"

He wanted to continue talking, so he looked at the man with black glasses and said in confusion: "Alright? How come so fast?"

The man with black glasses patted the fat man on the shoulder, then turned and left. Looking at his back, Fatty Wang flicked his wound with a curious look on his face:
"Oh, bounce, bounce, bounce away the crow's feet."

Liu Sang, who was not far away, was holding a pheasant he had shot and looking at it biting a branch with a puzzled look on his face.

Thinking that among the crowd, the fat man's cooking skills were at a level that only top chefs could achieve, he then walked over to Fatty Wang who was having fun and said half-jokingly:
"Your teeth are fine. Are you hungry or about to give birth?"

The fat man looked at the pheasant from Liu Sang's feet, and with a gulp, he smelled the taste of firewood in his mouth. After spitting out the firewood, he said happily:
"Oh my god, what a shit luck! Only you can have such good luck if you are so miserable."

Liu Sang rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you want to eat or not?"

"It's a sudden turn of events. We're going to have delicious food tonight. Come on." The two men entertained each other for a while and then the fat man carried the pheasant and went towards the tent.

The man with black glasses stood alone on the stone, watching the flowers floating away with the water in front of him. The fallen flowers wanted to follow the flowing water, but the flowing water had no intention of lingering on the fallen flowers.

Looking at the flowers disappearing in the water, he held the whistle in his hand, and the days he spent with Chuchu emerged in his mind.

Although it was short, it was indeed the most memorable moment in most of my life. Every moment at that time was so happy.

But now, happiness has slipped away and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the figure standing by the water, decadent and lonely, Wu Suowei put his hands in his pockets, walked to him and gently bumped his shoulder.

Seeing Wu Suowei coming, the man with black glasses quickly put the whistle into his pocket.

Looking at the silent Wu Suowei, the man with black glasses said with sadness.

"Along the way, my second uncle's team has suffered heavy losses. I know this in my heart, but I can only hide underground and can't do anything."

"Manpower is limited, so what can we do?" Wu Suowei glanced at the water in front of him: "Many times we don't have the right to choose."

Thinking about the past, Black Glasses said helplessly: "Other men may say that they and a woman are not from the same world, but what I said is true."

"I handed Chuchu over to Xiaohua. He is very powerful and Chuchu shouldn't have ended up like this, but Boss Jiao has the Wang family under him." The man with black glasses sighed: "Xiaohua may not be able to handle it.

"I was negligent. If Chuchu gets into trouble, Xiaohua will also be in danger."

Wu Suowei put his hand on Black Glasses' shoulder to comfort him: "Leaving Chuchu to Jie Yuhua is the most appropriate arrangement."

"We can't split ourselves, so don't blame yourself. He's smart, and Boss Jiao didn't mention him, so he should be safe."

The man with black glasses shook his head: "For a girl as persistent as Chuchu, I thought I could bear her sadness for the rest of her life."

"But I didn't expect that in the end, she would be reduced to ashes and even lose her life. The responsibility for this is all mine.

"I heard that Leicheng can heal all regrets. Do you believe it?"
