Chapter 2179: Villager Ji Wu
The moonlight was hazy, and it was silently shrouded in this ancient and mysterious primeval forest. The woods were quiet, and there was not even a bug or a night bird singing. It was terrible, quiet and weird, and the invisible murderous aura spread in the night sky. Beside the burning bonfire, the female army digging the pit was sweating profusely. If it resisted, it was beaten and kicked by the tomb robbers, and even smashed directly into the butt.
In the shadows around the bonfire, some people were hiding vigilantly, staring at the woods ahead, as if they were facing a great enemy, with cold faces, and fierce eyes flashed with cold light, but they did not find two black shadows hidden not far away. They were the little wolf and the tiger girl. They were ordered to lurk and observe, as if the cheetah was moving at the right time, waiting for the last moment.
In the distance, Luo Zheng and Lan Xue quickly shuttled through the dense forest of night. In order to avoid exposure, the two circled around and ran south. While running, Luo Zheng kept contacting Shi Qian and determined the other party's position. Hei Ye couldn't see the direction clearly. Luo Zheng had to contact Lan Xing and asked Lan Xing to help position and point out the direction.
More than twenty minutes later, the two came to a hillside and saw Shi Qian walking towards him, Cao Xi, Sang Ji, and several strong men, more men were still moving behind him, looking forward to it, under the moonlight, Luo Zheng was very curious about the eyesight of these people, and he could still run in such an environment. It was about 1,000 meters away from the tomb robber camp, so there was no need to worry about being discovered by the enemy at this distance.
"Are you three okay?" Luo Zheng asked worriedly.
"It's okay, this is the villager's representative." Shi Qian felt warm and quickly introduced.
"Hello, I am Ji Wu, thank you very much for helping you." The strong man quickly went up and said, his eyes looking at Luo Zheng were filled with sincere gratitude.
"You are welcome, we are soldiers, and it is your duty to save you." Luo Zheng said politely, looking up and down at the other party, seeing the other party's back and bear waist, as if he had endless strength in his body. Then he looked at the villagers behind him who were walking up in a dark circle, and asked in a deep voice: "I understand your feelings for saving people, but you don't have weapons and are not good at fighting with hot weapons. Staying here will only cause trouble. I promise with my life that I will definitely save them. You should go back first, or wait here."
"We know that following you will only cause trouble, but that is our relatives and must be saved. I hope you understand. Please rest assured that we are not slow and it is still okay to be able to run away. We are very familiar with this place." The person named Ji Wu said quickly, his tone firm.
"Head, Emperor Huang of Xuanyuan was originally named Gongsun, and later changed his surname to Ji." Cao Xi next to him said in a low voice.
Although these words were very quiet, Ji Wu still heard them. Ji Wu's face changed drastically. He stared at Luo Zheng and asked, "You are like those bastards, who are also coming for the treasure?"
Seeing that the other party guessed this, Luo Zheng frankly said: "We were not coming for the treasure. Someone abroad wants to steal the sword from the tomb. Once it succeeds, it will cause chaos in the world. Maybe you can't understand the horror behind it, but this sword must not fall into the hands of those people. I must take the sword away."
"It is impossible. As long as we are here, no matter what is in the tomb, you are the same. For the sake of saving us, there may be a glimmer of hope for you to leave here. Otherwise, there will be no place to die and no one can leave alive from here." Ji Wu shouted with a cold face, with an indisputable aura, and his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.
"You may not understand what I mean. Even if we leave, with your strength, you can't protect this tomb. The mastermind behind it is not someone, but a terrifying organization. This organization is powerful enough to threaten the security of the entire world, and even has the ability to trigger the Third World War. Just the strength of your village can protect this place?" Luo Zheng explained with some dissatisfaction.
"Even if we can't, no one can take things away from here. This is our mission." Ji Wu said without showing any weakness.
Luo Zheng looked at the man who was ignorant of advancing and retreating and asked dissatisfiedly: "You are the tomb guardians, aren't you?"
"Since you know, you should know our mission." Ji Wu looked at Luo Zheng in surprise and said, taking two steps back, his face becoming alert.
"The courage is commendable. More than 100 mobs force your village to have no choice. Are you sure you can defend this place? If the other party needs it, you can mobilize well-trained elite troops to come up. It is not these mobs now. The village is just a matter of waving hands. Why should you defend this place?" Luo Zheng took two steps forward and asked coldly.
"As long as our mission is still there, we must ensure safety here. As for the affairs after our death, there is nothing to say." Ji Wu retorted angrily.
"Your mood is understandable. According to relevant national laws, underground cultural relics belong to the country. I don't want to use this to force you, nor am I interested in touching this tomb. However, this matter involves national security. I will clear it up all unfavorable factors that endanger national security. If you stop us and let the enemy take the opportunity to take away things, you are treason. More than a thousand families in your village cannot bear this responsibility." Luo Zheng shouted angrily.
"You?" Ji Wu stared at Luo Zheng in anger.
Luo Zheng stared at Ji Wu without being outdone. The two of them confronted each other, and no one gave in. The situation became tense, and an invisible pressure spread. Lan Xue and others even exchanged their eyes, became alert, and prepared just in case.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the two confronted each other for about three minutes. Ji Wu was defeated, his face turned pale, and he asked in a deep voice: "What is the organization you are talking about?"
"The Dark Church was called the Sun Church more than 2,000 years ago." Luo Zheng said in a deep voice.
"What? They?" Ji Wu's face changed drastically, and his eyes were filled with shock when he looked at Luo Zheng.
"Do you know them?" Luo Zheng looked at Ji Wu in surprise and asked.
"What's your name?" Ji Wu did not answer Luo Zheng's words, but stared at Luo Zheng and asked, as if he had seen him for the first time, his eyes full of shock and suspicion.
"Soldiers' regulations, keep it confidential." Luo Zheng said in a deep voice.
"I understand, but I must know your name, it's all about the whole thing." Ji Wu said solemnly.
When Luo Zheng heard that it was related to the whole thing, he couldn't help but become surprised. He thought for a while and said, "Luo Zheng, code-named Ghost."
"Ghost? Luo Zheng?" Ji Wu was excited when he heard this, and his body trembled uncontrollably. As if he had heard incredible news, he quickly turned around and shouted to the back: "Hurry, Xiao Wu, go back and tell my father that there is a man named Luo Zheng, code-named Ghost, is here, go quickly!" r1148
