In the basement.
Bai Bing shrank in the corner, hugging her knees with both hands, both helpless and desperate.”
Ever since Bai Yujing tricked her back to the capital, she had been placed under house arrest, and her mobile phone was taken away, cutting off her contact with the outside world.”
Bai Bing wanted to commit suicide several times to resist, but unexpectedly, Bai Yujing ordered someone to bring her here.”
In this room, apart from a bed, there is nothing. The walls are also specially made and one can’t even kill oneself by hitting the wall.
All these are not what make Bai Bing the most desperate.
What makes her the most desperate is the news of Ye Qiu’s death.
Although she doesn’t believe Bai Yujing’s words, she can feel that this time Bai Yujing didn’t lie to her.
“Could it be that he is really dead?”
“How is this possible?”
Bai Bing doesn’t dare to believe and is also unwilling to believe. But the more so, the more uneasy she feels in her heart.
She only hates that she can’t go out now and has no way to contact the outside world. Otherwise, she would be able to know Ye Qiu’s situation.
After a long while, a miserable and desperate smile appeared on Bai Bing’s face.
“Ye Qiu, in this life, I have decided on you.”
“Don’t worry, I will never marry Pei Jie.”
“If you die, then I will go to the underworld to accompany you.”
……
In the northwest, on the gobi desert.
The search and rescue work is still ongoing.
Beside the deep pit, an old man in military uniform with three gold stars on his shoulder is holding a telescope and paying attention to the search and rescue situation inside the deep pit.
He is the commander of the Northwest Military Region – General Long Haisheng.
Beside Long Haisheng, there is a large group of people, and each of them has a gold star or two gold stars on their shoulders.
These people are the high-level of the Northwest Military Region.
A soldier trotted to the side of Long Haisheng, stood at attention with both feet, saluted, and shouted loudly: “Report!”
”I asked you to call Tang Fei over. Why didn’t he come?” Long Haisheng asked.
The soldier replied, “Chief of Staff Tang said that he doesn’t have time to see you. He has to rescue his brother.”
”What about Long Ye?”
”Company Commander Long said that the person buried under the yellow sand is his savior. He doesn’t have time to see you.”
Long Haisheng slightly frowned and turned to ask a middle-aged man beside him, “Lao Huang, you came from the engineering troops. Tell me, at the current speed of the special operations company, how long will it take to dig out the yellow sand in the deep pit?”
Lao Huang said, “I walked around the deep pit just now and made a detailed calculation. With the current manpower and excavation equipment of the special operations company, it is estimated that it will take a month to dig out the yellow sand.”
”What? It will take a month?” Long Haisheng’s face was full of surprise.
Lao Huang smiled bitterly and said, “A month is still very conservative. If there is a collapse under the deep pit or other special geographical environment appears, the time will only be longer.”
Long Haisheng’s heart sank.
Even if Ye Qiu is still alive, can he last for a month?
Of course, Ye Qiu may not be buried at the bottom of the yellow sand. Maybe Ye Qiu can be found after digging for a while, but Long Haisheng doesn’t dare to take risks.
For this matter, the military god ordered him to find Ye Qiu at all costs. Alive, see the person. Dead, see the corpse.
”If I send an engineering regiment over to help, how long will it take?” Long Haisheng asked.
Lao Huang said, “If there is an engineering regiment, the time can be advanced a lot, about ten days!”
Long Haisheng frowned again, “Isn’t ten days a bit long?”
Lao Huang said, “Commander, the terrain of the Gobi Desert is already complex, and the weather is harsh. If extreme weather such as tornadoes or sandstorms occurs, it will affect the excavation progress. Ten days is not slow.”
The Military God gave me an order to find Ye Qiu at all costs and as quickly as possible.” Long Haisheng said, “Lao Huang, you bring an engineering regiment to help them, and if you need any other support, tell me at any time.”
I only have one request.”
That is, at most seven days, Ye Qiu must be found.”
Do you have the confidence to complete the task?”
Lao Huang quickly stood at attention with both feet, saluted Long Haisheng, and said loudly, “Please rest assured, Commander. I guarantee to complete the task.”
“Very good.” Long Haisheng nodded slightly and asked the soldier again, “I heard that the soldiers of the special operations company haven’t eaten yet?”
The soldier replied, “Nearly twenty hours have passed since the accident. They haven’t had a drop of water or a grain of rice. They have been searching and rescuing Ye Qiu.”
“It’s not easy. Let’s go and see them.” Long Haisheng said and led a group of generals towards the deep pit.”
……
At the same time.”
Nearly 300 meters below the deep pit, in a crack, Ye Qiu, who was in a coma, slowly opened his eyelids.”
His vision was blurred.”
His head was dizzy.”
The throat is dry.
The whole body feels like it’s falling apart.
Ye Qiu used all his strength to make his vision a little clearer. However, it was pitch black and he couldn’t see anything.
“Where is this?”
“Am I dead?”
Ye Qiu shook his head vigorously, trying to sit up. But as soon as he moved, a sharp pain came from his leg.
Fracture!
“Hiss——” Ye Qiu sucked in a breath of cold air in pain.
He turned over and propped himself up with his left hand with great difficulty, trying to get up At this time. a burning pain came from his back again.
He reached out and touched it, and his hand felt sticky.
Although Ye Qiu couldn’t see, he could smell it by the smell. It was blood.
He gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and slowly sat up. Then, he looked up and forward.
Still couldn’t see anything. It was too dark here.
Ye Qiu immediately opened his Heavenly Eye. Instantly, the situation within a radius of twenty meters was clear at a glance.
This is a canyon, very narrow, less than one meter wide.
What surprised Ye Qiu the most was that in the canyon, there was actually a path paved with bluestones, stretching forward.
Because the line of sight of the Heavenly Eye was limited, he couldn’t see where this path led to.
Ye Qiu looked up again.
Above the canyon were some stones and some cracks, and from time to time, yellow sand would fall down from above.
“It doesn’t seem like the Underworld here. I’m still alive.”
Ye Qiu muttered to himself: “I wonder how Tang Fei and the others are doing? Are they all still alive?”
“Forget it, leave them alone. First, heal my injuries.”
Ye Qiu immediately drew a talisman.
He had multiple injuries on his body. It took him nearly two hours to heal all the injuries on his body.
“Fortunately, I know Maoshan talismans. Otherwise, I would have been doomed.”
Ye Qiu stood up from the ground, his eyes fixed on the bluestone-paved path, and then, without hesitation, he stepped forward.
The bluestone path was winding and twisting, and there was no end in sight.
Ye Qiu walked for half an hour. Finally, a heavy stone door appeared in front of him.
Looking around, the stone door was about three meters wide and nine meters high.
“What is this place?”
Ye Qiu felt was puzzled. At this moment, he noticed that beside the stone door, there was also a stone tablet standing.
Perhaps because of the passage of time, the stone tablet was already mottled and covered with thick dust and yellow sand. could be seen engraved on it.
Ye Qiu quickly wiped the stone tablet with his hand. Soon, four dark red Chinese characters appeared in front of his eyes:
“Those who trespass will die!”
