Chapter 153 The Decisive Battle at the Peak of Helan (38)
"So you killed Stephen and took the treasure map?"

"Speaking of the treasure map, that's exactly where Stephen was stupid. He and Fanny foolishly thought that if they found the black lama's treasure according to the treasure map, they would be able to get away from us. Little did they know that everything was under the control of the general, The general already knew about the existence of the treasure map."

"The general returned the treasure map to Stephen on purpose?" Makarov was secretly surprised.

"No! No! The general was indeed negligent at the beginning, but before they set off, the general already knew the existence of the treasure map."

"The general deliberately pretended not to know, but actually sent you to spy on him?"

"Hehe, the general doesn't need the treasure of the black lama. The general suspects that the jade screen is hidden in the Black Vulture Temple, but the treasure map is not enough. Stephen is most familiar with this place, so the general decided to use Stephen first. I didn't expect him After discovering the treasure map, he really stunned... Hehe, poor Stephen really thought he could escape the general's palm." Stechkin sneered.

"Then you secretly followed Stephen all the way here?"

"Yes! The two of them first stayed in the inn in the mountain, and then went up the mountain every day to search according to the map; I lived and slept in the open, secretly monitoring them. Just a few days ago, Stephen found the treasure map of the Buddha. Secret, and entered the body of the Great Buddha. The terrain here is complicated, and there are many strange things, especially the lost forest. I am afraid that there will be long nights and dreams, so I want to get rid of Stephen and Fanny first, and take the treasure map to go in and search for it myself. "

"So you killed Fanny at the inn, but let Stephen escape."

"This guy is really cunning. Not only did he escape, but he also took away the two most important treasure maps, which caused me to lose his information for a while. Without the treasure map, I dare not rush into the mountain. Just when I was at a loss when, thank God you came."

"Are you following us?" Makarov was taken aback again.

"That's right! I followed you all by myself and came to the forest. That strange forest always makes people get lost, and I got lost in it several times, so I carved the triangle mark you saw on the tree."

"Yesterday, before we set off, you entered the Great Buddha first?"

"Yes, I have already found the Great Buddha, and I knew the mystery of the Buddha's eyes in advance, so I entered the Great Buddha before you. I knew that you would find the Great Buddha sooner or later, so I deliberately left a rope to let you stray into the Buddha's right eye. "

"Did you know that if you enter through the right eye of the Buddha, you will get lost?"

"Before that boy Stephen didn't understand the treasure map, so he went the wrong way, and ended up wandering inside for a day and a night before escaping."

"So, you tricked us into the Buddha's right eye, and yourself into the Buddha's left eye..."

"Yes. Enter from the left eye of the Buddha. The whole journey is smooth. You will not get lost or fork in the road. You will soon arrive at the front hall."

"Stephen said that there was an accident in the front hall, does that mean your sudden arrival?"

"No! Ivan, don't worry, let me tell you slowly." At this moment Stechkin regained his energy, "I arrived at the front hall, just in time to see Stephen studying the third treasure map. The treasure map The picture is very strange, and the drawing is unclear, Stephen couldn't understand it for a while, so he didn't dare to proceed to the next step rashly."

"It's not surprising. Stephen's father, Ma Changguo, drew it based on his own memory. Of course, there were some deviations, so Ma Changguo warned Stephen on the treasure map not to look for the treasure unless it is absolutely necessary." Makarov said.

"Stephen thinks it's the last resort for him. The two of us have been at odds for a long time in the front hall. He wants to kill me and avenge Fanny, but he doesn't have the strength yet, and he hasn't found the black lama's treasure; and I needed his help, so I gave him a good suggestion. The two of us will find the treasures of Yuchaping and Hei Lama together, and then it will be over, and whoever wins will get the treasures."

"Stephen accepted your proposal?"

"Of course! He has no reason to refuse, because my proposal is fair."

"Stephen is so stunned, how could he be your opponent?" Makarov murmured.

"Ivan, Stephen doesn't think so. He probably wants to catch me off guard and kill me first when he finds the treasure!"

"In the end you made the first move?"

"No! He was preparing to attack me in the tunnel outside the east gate, but unfortunately he is not my opponent."

"Why did you choose to go to the east gate instead of the north gate?" Han Jiang asked suddenly.

"Steven and I studied the treasure map, and thought that the west gate could not be used; the north corridor was blocked by gravel, and it was difficult to see how deep it was behind, so it was difficult to pass for a while, so we went through the east gate first. Another important reason It was thought of by my clever brain, the black lama and Stephen's grandfather searched here for a long time but failed to find Yuchaping, so Yuchaping must not be in the palace to the north, it is very likely here."

"This is Stephen's so-called accident?"

"No! The real accident didn't stop there. Just as Stephen and I reached an agreement and were about to set off, two uninvited guests broke in."

"Yelena and Dr. Xu?"

"Yes! Yelena! Oh! Ivan, I have to say, your daughter is... really beautiful... every time I see her, my heart... thump... thump... Worried that if this goes on, I'll get a heart attack from your daughter... Ever since I met Yelena in Ponotska, I've been attracted to her beauty. Her looks, her breath, her voice... oh!  … ...attracted me all the time. I didn't expect that we would meet again in the cave..." Stechkin's expression was exaggerated with nervousness.

"Crazy! You make me sick!" Makarov scolded.He saw Yelena struggling behind Stechkin, but was unable to free herself from the two burly men.

"I don't care if you're disgusting or not, anyway, you can't stop my love for Yelena!" Stechkin suddenly roared nervously.Makarov did not dare to provoke him any further, and had to wait for Stechkin to calm down himself.After a while, Stechkin seemed to calm down, as if he was talking to himself, "My lovely Yelena was probably worried about you, and broke in through the Buddha's left eye. But they are not our opponents, Stephen and I Yelena was quickly subdued, let alone Dr. Xu."

"I understand." Makarov nodded slightly, "However, you escorted Yelena and Dr. Xu to the top of the mountain, why didn't we see you just now?"

Stechkin hesitated for a while, and said: "Ivan, I escorted Yelena and Dr. Xu to the top of the mountain, but I really don't know where the jade screen will be placed, so I hid it and waited for your arrival. I I thought Tang Feng might be able to help me find Yuchaping, and sure enough...hahaha..."

Stephkin laughed wildly, but Makarov still didn't see a chance to subdue Stephkin, and felt anxious.He could only continue to procrastinate: "You hid? Is there a hiding place on the top of this mountain?"

"Haha! Of course you can't guess where I am hiding. There is a natural cave under the mountain on the west side." Stechkin pointed to the hill on the west side.

"Then how did you come up with so many people?" Makarov was puzzled.

"Speaking out will scare you to death!" Stechkin suddenly put on a fierce face, "Our people climbed up from the cliff on the west side."

"What? You used ropes to climb up the cliff?" Not only Makarov was surprised, but Tang Feng and Han Jiang were also shocked.

Makarov glanced at the eight men in black behind him again, feeling chills in his heart.

Makarov still hadn't found a good opportunity. Even if Stechkin had no hostages, Han Jiang, Tang Feng, and himself had absolutely no chance of winning.

"Do you know Burdenko? Yuri Pavlovich Burdenko." Makarov asked again suddenly, trying to delay time.

"No! I don't know him," Stechkin answered simply.

"What's the relationship between you and Brenning? And Isakov?" Makarov asked.

"Brenning? Isakov? Didn't I tell Yelena everything?"

"The words you and Brenning said are exactly the same after decades. Will your relationship be as simple as you said?" Makarov asked.

Stechkin was stunned for a moment: "Exactly the same? Come on, Ivan, don't talk to me. That fellow Breynin is a general, and I'm just a prisoner. What can we have to do with each other?"

"But just after you were rescued by the general, Brenning was burnt to death for no apparent reason. Is this another coincidence?"

"Forget it, Ivan, just treat it as a coincidence. I've done enough to give you face and answered so many stupid questions of yours. Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise and exchange the jade screen for Yelena!" Stech The golden eyes showed a fierce look, "Otherwise, I'm going to take a knife on Yelena. You don't want Yelena's fair and tender face to be scarred?"

Makarov knew that Stechkin was about to lose patience, it was getting late, and there was not much time left for them.

Stechkin had obviously lost his patience. He yelled furiously: "Hurry up! Hand over the jade screen! If you delay any longer, I will be rude to Yelena!"

As they spoke, two men in black held guns against Yelena's temples.Makarov looked at Han Jiang helplessly, he needed Han Jiang to make a final decision.Tang Feng also stared at Han Jiang.They knew that Han Jiang was facing a difficult choice at this time.

After thinking hard, Han Jiang said slowly, "Tang Feng, give them the jade screen."

Tang Feng was startled, and looked at Han Jiang in surprise: "Just give them the jade screen?"

"Give it to them!" Han Jiang seemed to have made up his mind.

Tang Feng had no choice but to hold the jade screen and walked ten steps away from Stechkin, gently placed the jade screen in the grass, and then shouted at Stechkin: "Take Yelena and Dr. Let it go."

Seeing Yuchaping, Stechkin's eyes flashed with excitement, and he took two quick steps forward, and he was about to get Yuchaping.Tang Feng protected the jade screen, and shouted at Stechkin: "Slow! You let Yelena and Dr. Xu come here first, otherwise I will never give it to you even if I smash the jade screen."

Tang Feng raised the gun in his hand high, but instead of pointing it at Stechkin, he held the barrel of the gun in his hand with the butt of the gun facing down, as if he wanted to live and die with Yuchaping.

"Don't! Tang Feng, I have already promised to release him, you have to trust me." Stechkin suddenly put on a smile again, "You must let me see the authenticity of the jade screen first, right?"

"I just found it from the golden well, how could it be fake!"

"Okay! Put the other pieces of jade you just found there too." Stechkin pushed forward.

Tang Feng had no choice but to put the three jade pieces in the grass. "Two steps back!" Stechkin shouted at Tang Feng.

Tang Feng took two steps back slowly, the [-]-type pistol in his right hand was still firmly grasped.Stechkin pouted at the man in black next to him. Two men in black supported Yelena, and the other two men in black dragged the dying Xu Renyu. They walked to the side of Yuchaping.

The man in black released Yelena and Xu Renyu.Tang Feng hurriedly tore off the tape from Yelena's mouth, and together with her, supported Xu Renyu to retreat.

Taking advantage of this moment, the man in black picked up the jade screen and jade jade in the grass, and returned them to Stechkin.

Stechkin looked at Yuchaping and Yugui, and put them in his backpack contentedly.Immediately afterwards, he changed his face, and said to Tang Feng and others with a fierce look: "Tang Feng, Han Jiang, you can take Dr. Xu away, but please leave Makarov and Yelena here."

"What are you doing?" Tang Feng shouted.

Han Jiang had been on guard against Stechkin for a long time, and he instinctively protected Yelena: "That's impossible."

"You can't blame me!" Stechkin drew out his gun and pointed it at Han Jiang.

Tang Feng only had three pistols, while Stechkin had nine guns, three to nine.More importantly, Stechkin's side is almost all submachine guns, and the firepower far exceeds Tang Feng's side.

Both Tang Feng and Han Jiang knew that once they fought, they would be in danger.Just when everyone was at their wits end, a voice suddenly came from mid-air.Everyone was horrified, and looked up at the sky together, but nothing could be seen in the sky except the thicker and thicker clouds.

"What is this?" Tang Feng felt terrified.

"I don't know..." Han Jiang also looked up at the clouds above his head.

The clouds above the head became lower and lower, and all the people on the top of the mountain felt a kind of oppression they had never experienced before, as if the whole sky was about to fall down.

"Vulture!" Tang Feng suddenly noticed that on the peak north of the mountain top, two huge vultures pierced through the clouds and swooped down towards them.

"It's those two vultures!" Han Jiang recognized that these two vultures were the ones that kept appearing above their heads.

Stechkin and the men in black were also stunned by this sudden scene. They stood there in a daze, not knowing what the two vultures were up to.However, Han Jiang found an opportunity at the critical moment, and he stared at the vultures that swooped down on them.I saw the two vultures rushing down from the North Peak, and when they flew over Stechkin and the men in black, they grabbed the two stunned men in black, then pulled them up suddenly, and circled into the air.

Han Jiang seized this only chance, raised his gun and shot. "Bang! Bang!" With two shots, the two men in black fell to the ground.When Tang Feng and Makarov heard the gunshots, they immediately reacted and shot at the man in black together.In a panic, Stechkin and the men in black shot back, but they were already in disarray, and the bullets they fired indiscriminately did not hurt Tang Feng, Han Jiang, and Makarov at all.Yelena fell to the ground the moment she heard the gunshot, and most of the man in black was lost in an instant.

The vulture threw down the two men in black heavily, and the two of them fell into a puddle of flesh.Han Jiang and Makarov continued to shoot at the man in black under the cover of grass.When the pistols ran out of bullets, they picked up the man in black's submachine gun and fired as they went.Tang Feng stared at Stechkin, who was looming in the grass, and he knew that the jade screen was on Stechkin's body.

After a scuffle, the eight men in black were wiped out, leaving only Stechkin.Yelena kept reminding Han Jiang and Makarov to be careful behind Han Jiang and Makarov, because she had already experienced the power of Stechkin.But at this time, Stechkin was in a panic, and in the panic, he didn't hit a single shot.

Seeing that Stechkin was nothing more than that, Han Jiang thought that Yelena was making a big fuss and became more courageous as she fought. While shooting, she pressed on in the direction where Stechkin was fleeing in the tall grass.

Stechkin panicked and ran to the north peak, but he quickly turned back to the west peak.Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Makarov also chased towards the mountain peak on the west side, but at this moment, Stechkin's figure disappeared from everyone's sight...

Tang Feng and Han Jiang were still shooting, and Makarov waved at them to signal them to stop shooting.Only then did they realize that the top of the hill had fallen into a deathly silence. The two vultures had disappeared, and Stechkin had disappeared.

The three of them straightened up slowly, and looked towards the mountain peak on the west side. The surrounding grass and shrubs were too tall and dense. Maybe Stechkin was hiding in the grass.The three held their guns and carefully searched forward.Every step they took, Han Jiang and Makarov were extremely careful.But Tang Feng did not have the professionalism of the two of them, and Stechkin disappeared from his vision, which made him panic all of a sudden.He must not let Stechkin escape like this!But in the blink of an eye, why did Stechkin seem to evaporate?Tang Feng thought wildly and relaxed his vigilance.When he reached the thickest grass under the western peak, he had already left Han Jiang and Makarov behind.Han Jiang gestured for him to stop several times, but Tang Feng didn't notice.

It was here that Stechkin seemed to have disappeared just now.Tang Feng looked around, the waist-deep grass was swaying in the wind, but Stechkin was still nowhere to be seen.He looked back and found that Han Jiang and Makarov had fallen behind, so he hurriedly stopped.Just when Tang Feng hesitated to move forward, a gust of wind came, and he suddenly smelled a murderous aura.
