I heard that I'm a tomb robber

Chapter 17 Get Out
"This is a monkey?" Zhang Yu followed the light of the flashlight, looked at the animals coming up from all around, and opened the safety of the pistol directly.

"And it's a monkey ready to eat people." Mei Qian's mood was not good. He didn't quite believe that these were monkeys from the outside world. After all, he had also been to a zoo. Such a large size.

At this moment, there were already five or six more monkeys in front of the two of them, and more monkeys climbed the cliff and approached one after another. The sharp and terrifying teeth were displayed demonstratively, obviously looking like they were hunting.

Rather than saying that they are primates, it is more appropriate to describe them as evil spirits in hell.

As if they were concerned about the beam of the flashlight, the monsters gradually closed and surrounded the two of them, roaring from time to time.He didn't take the initiative to attack, but he didn't retreat, he just stared at the two of them.

There were more and more monkeys, from five or six at first, to a dozen or so, and listening to the sound, it seemed that there were still monkeys coming from afar.

It seems that these "monkeys" have high IQs and are extremely organized. Once they find that the flashlight light source will not cause harm, the group will not be far away if they attack.

Seeing the monsters getting closer and closer, the two of them looked at each other, knowing that once the encirclement circle was formed, it would be very troublesome to be attacked from both sides.

Fortunately, they had already reached the platform. If they stayed on the cliff path before, they would undoubtedly be tied up in the fight.

It's just that I can't let myself be surrounded so easily.

So, at the same time, one of them held a gun and the other held a dagger, and slowly retreated to the innermost side of the platform.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and gunshots sounded from his side. With a miserable howl, a monkey fell to the ground with blood dripping from its chest.

The gunshots were very loud in this empty and deep underground space, and brought back echoes, which stopped the monkeys' encircling circles and closed their steps, and even took a few steps back in fear, but facing the two people, they still kept roaring.

"He didn't run away after being so scared, it seems that he really treats us as food." Mei Qian snorted, and asked again: "How many bullets do you have?"

"There are only four shots left." Zhang Yu smiled bitterly.

"Can't you bring more bullets once you go to the police?" Mei Qian complained, and handed the flashlight over: "Keep the bullets for now, and give me light."

"You..." Zhang Yu wanted to persuade him again, but after Mei Qian forced the flashlight into his hand, he jumped vertically, and his body was already in front of the nearest monkey.

Then there was a flash of cold light, and the monkey was wiped on its neck.

Seeing such neat movements, Zhang Yu also knew what the safest course of action was, so he resisted the urge to step forward to help, and honestly cast the beam of the flashlight in front of Mei Qian, lighting it up while holding a gun as cover support.

The blood stimulated the murderous nature, and the irritated monkey group became agitated and attacked Mei Qian one after another.

In fact, Mei Qian's skill came from training, not through fighting. It was the first time to use it so recklessly, but she still lacked experience. Except for the first fierce and quick attack, she was still in a hurry for a while afterwards.

Fortunately, these monkeys seem to live underground all year round and are very sensitive to light. Once the flashlight beam shines on them, they will not react flexibly.And compared to human beings, their strength is much weaker after all. Mei Qian's physical fitness and nerve response speed are far superior to ordinary people. Even in an invisible environment, it is difficult for a monkey's sneak attack to hurt him.

This also made Mei Qian have a good time.

These monkeys have high IQs, and they seem to find that Mei Qian is not easy to mess with, and some of them turn to attack Zhang Yu.

Following two gunshots, two more monkeys fell into a pool of blood.

The group of monkeys finally got scared, and after dropping more than a dozen corpses, the rest of the monkeys fled away screaming.

When everything calmed down, Mei Qian took the cigarette that Zhang Yu handed over, and took two strong puffs to suppress the nausea.

Even if it's just animals, it will eventually cause discomfort, let alone a group of people.

The two of them remained silent, they finished smoking their cigarettes facing each other, and then followed the wind to find a way out without saying a word.

But after walking a few steps, Mei Qian suddenly stopped: "Listen, what's the sound?"

Zhang Yu's eyebrows are beating wildly, isn't it?Another monster?Listen quietly now.

After a long while, he frowned: "It seems to be the sound of knocking on stones, very regular. Could it be those monkeys?" Then he was surprised: "Three short, three long, and three short, they are asking for help!"

Mei Qian showed joy on his face, and hurriedly quickened his pace.At this time, if no one else fell in, it was most likely Mao Mao.

After walking for about half a minute, a dark hole appeared on the cliff ahead, and the sound was clearer, obviously coming from the hole.

The entrance of the cave was as tall as a person, and it was most likely the nest of those monkeys, because as soon as the two of them stood at the entrance of the cave, a strong stench came over their nostrils.

Mei Qian didn't hesitate, and walked in directly.

Zhang Yu originally wanted to persuade him to be more cautious, but he was so anxious that he could only follow behind, and at the same time opened the safety of the pistol.

It seemed that the monkeys in the cave were scared away and they were not attacked. The cave was not deep, and after turning a corner, under the beam of the flashlight, the situation inside the cave was clear at a glance.

There were only two people lying down in the middle, one was an old man with blood on his head, his eyes were closed and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

The other is a petite girl. She is lying on her side, facing the entrance of the cave, holding a stone tightly in one hand, but at this moment she seems to be out of consciousness, and she has no reaction when she sees the person coming. Hit the ground without a beat.

"Maomao?" Mei Qian exclaimed in surprise, and walked over quickly.

That girl was the missing assistant Mao Mao. Hearing this familiar voice, the girl's eyes flashed with surprise, probably because her nervous nerves were relaxed, she passed out.

Mei Qian rushed forward in a hurry, but he didn't dare to move the other person's body, he just stretched out his hand to check her body, and when he saw the wound on the other person's head clearly, his heart sank.

"They just passed out from exhaustion." Mei Qian said calmly, and then turned to Zhang Yu: "I feel that this place should not be far from the ground. Try to see if there is a mobile phone signal, so we can call for support?"

"Okay!" Zhang Yu nodded, took out his phone and walked out.

And when he turned around, a bottle of mineral water appeared in Mei Qian's hand, she took out the Great Return Pill from the warehouse, and fed it to Mao Mao.

Fortunately, this elixir melts in the mouth, and it will take effect with a little water.

After confirming that Mao Mao had eaten it, he got up to check another person.

This is an elderly man. Although he has never seen him before, he presumably is Mao Mao's father, Professor Mao.

He snorted to confirm that the other party was still alive, and his injury was also on the head, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly fed the Da Huan Dan.

He reckoned that Mao Mao and his father should have been brought into the cave by the group of monkeys as food reserves when they fell.

Fortunately, the appearance of myself and Zhang Yu scared the monkey away, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

When Zhang Yu turned back in disappointment and saw the mineral water in Mei Qian's hand, he was only taken aback for a moment, thinking that Mao Mao or Professor Mao was carrying it with him.

After feeding the two wounded with healing medicine, the heart that had been hanging was finally let go. At this time, Mei Qian also felt thirsty, so she poured half of the remaining mineral water into her mouth, and gave the bottle to Zhang Yu.

The latter was also polite, raised his head and drank too.

Then, each of them carried a wounded person on their backs, and walked out of the cave quickly.

The rest of the road was much safer. There were no disturbances from monkeys, and no more earthquakes. Mei Qian estimated that there must be a way out where there is wind. After walking for about half an hour, they saw a cat hanging in the sky the moon.

Just looking at the scattered stones on the hillside, it should be a passage shaken out after the earthquake. Unfortunately, it should be far away from the archaeological team's camp, so it was not discovered.

Leaning the wounded on the mountain wall, Mei Qian and Zhang Yu also sat on the ground.

"The last two." Zhang Yu called his colleagues, explained the situation of himself and others, and described the characteristics of the location, and learned that everyone else was safe and sound, he laughed twice.

Then he habitually passed the cigarette, and Mei Qian took it habitually.

It is quite refreshing to swallow clouds and mist at this time.

"Is the name Mei Qian real?" Zhang Yu asked suddenly.

"Huh?" Mei Qian curled her lips in disgust, thinking that the other party was still testing her, but Zhang Yu's next sentence almost made him choke to death from the smoke: "I have been thinking, what kind of parents would bring such bad luck to their children name?"

"Cough! Cough!" Mei Qian snuffed out the cigarette angrily, and it took a long time before she gritted her teeth and responded to Zhang Yu who was laughing: "I forgot."

The two chatted like this, and finally ushered in a large team, including the TV station, the rescue team, and Zhang Yu's colleagues.But there is no Archaeological Bureau. I heard Li Chen gloating that Captain Yang was taken away by the discipline inspection unit after Mei Qian and Zhang Yu had an accident.

Mei Qian originally wanted to smoke another cigarette, but as soon as the female reporter from the TV station saw him, she pointed the microphone at his black face and asked a series of questions.

"Mei Qian, did you come to the archaeological station this time to identify the scene? I heard that you fell into the ancient tomb, did you rely on your experience in tomb robbery to escape? You are underground..."

Zhang Yu bluntly pushed the camera aside, surrounded Mei Qian with his colleagues and left.

It's a pity that until the group got back into the prison car, Mao Mao and her father still didn't wake up, so they couldn't have a good meeting with him.
