A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 452 The Empty Wangdu Village

boom!
Rumble!
"Xiao Zhuang, six planes have already passed by, right? It can't be that big of a commotion just because three people died in Wangdu Village."

Dezi and Xiaozhuang parked their car on a mountain road far from Wangdu Village, figuring that going to town wouldn't be safe either.

Standing here, with an open view on all sides, at least you have a place to observe and look around.

Dezi smoked fearfully, "I don't know, this is the first time I've ever seen so many planes in my life, something's going to happen, something's definitely going to happen."

"Don't scare me. What could possibly happen? We're far away from each other. What could possibly happen?"

-

-

Wangruiyang Mining was taken over completely.

Seven or eight planes and armed police vehicles were parked there, and the entire mountain was completely sealed off.

Armed police guard a three-kilometer radius around Wangdu Village.

Everyone at Ruiyang Mining squatted on the ground, trembling with fear, too afraid to move.

Wu Zhe, Wu Liuyi, and Cheng Cai stood silently on the hillside, their eyes filled with a murderous intent that seemed to want to skin and tear apart anyone in their path.

Forensic doctors and police are examining the bodies in the open space: three from Wangdu Village, four from the hillside intersection, plus Jiao Shengli, making a total of eight people.

Of course, it's already clear that Lao Gao was killed.

"Here I am!" Cheng Cai said, looking up.

As the helicopter landed, Yuan Lang jumped out first, followed by Gao Cheng from another helicopter.

Gao Cheng was wearing camouflage and had combat makeup on his face. He had rushed over immediately after the exercise ended and hadn't even had time to catch his breath.

"What about people?"

Gao Cheng quickly overtook Yuan Lang and stood in front of Cheng Cai and the other two, staring intently at them with a gaze that could kill anyone.

Wu Zhe looked sadly to his left, where the forensic doctor was examining Feng Yuxiu's swollen and slightly decomposed body.

Gao Cheng ignored everything and rushed over.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Lang followed with a livid expression.

The two stood one in front of the other, about a meter away from the corpse. Although it was swollen and rotten, the face was still clearly visible. Gao Cheng then staggered backward.

Yuan Lang quickly stepped forward to support him.

"It's nothing, it's nothing... I'm just a little tired because I've been practicing for several days without rest... I'm fine..."

Gao Cheng broke free from Yuan Lang's grasp and staggered to the side, suddenly waving his right hand.

A sergeant nearby quickly stepped forward, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it to Gao Cheng.

"Light it!"

Gao Cheng turned around and roared angrily.

The sergeant hurriedly lit Gao Cheng's cigarette.

Gao Cheng took a sip, sucked on it, and then spat it out. "Why is this thing so hard to suck now?"

Yuan Lang stood aside and watched as Gao Cheng, this tough man who never showed weakness, vented his inner sorrow in this way.

No one dared to approach; Gao Cheng was like a powder keg about to explode.

-

On the other side of the hillside, several men with buzz cuts, bound hand and foot, watched in terror as troops continued to arrive.

"Brother, what's going on? Didn't you tell me to find someone? What kind of entity are we looking for? Why is the military here?"

"How the hell should I know? The person who posted the task just told us to find someone."

At this moment, the boss's lips turned white, and the muscles in his face began to twitch uncontrollably.

This is terrifying. It's just a search mission, why is there such a huge commotion? It's fucking scary.

"It's alright, it's alright, it has nothing to do with us... Anyway, we didn't kill anyone, and we didn't kill a single person from beginning to end, we didn't even get close to any villagers... Several of our men died. It's alright, everyone keep your mouths shut!"

Hearing his older brother's warning, one of the underlings sighed, "Brother, have you forgotten that Huang Shan kid was so scared that he only said half of what he said before? Liu Jiang, who fell into the valley and broke his leg, had his mother confiscate the photos. We can't escape this."

"Just say we found the photos... Forget it, everyone shut up! This is too big to cover up! Damn it!"

-

-

Gao Cheng suddenly turned around and strode towards Wu Zhe and the other two.

The sheer force of the aura caused the three to instinctively take a few steps back, then stop two meters away. He turned and walked back to the corpse, his eyes narrowing as if sand had gotten into them, his voice hoarse, "Wh...how..."

Gao Cheng turned around, coughed, and then turned back around. "Where did he go?"

The forensic doctor stood up. "Sir, the bleeding was caused by a penetrating abdominal wound, but the fatal injury was from falling off the cliff. Our theory is that the person fell from the opposite hillside, was pierced in the abdomen by a protruding broken log, stood up unsteadily, and then fell off the cliff again... ultimately leading to their death."

Hearing about the almost cruel manner of death, Gao Cheng stood there in silence for a long time.

Yuan Lang whirled around, "Wu Zhe! Where is he??????"

Wu Zhe was startled by the roaring voice, "Captain, what...who is it?"

"Where are those people? Where are the photos they had?"

Wu Zhe immediately replied, "It's in the hands of the Armed Police and Public Security; it's evidence they need to investigate further."

"Fuck you!"

Gao Cheng turned and walked toward the armed police, his gaze icy. "Photos."

Seeing Gao Cheng's murderous gaze, several armed police officers turned around, and a public security officer quickly handed over the photos inside the plastic bag.

Just by glancing down, Gao Cheng felt a surge of blood rush to his head.

This photo must be from inside the submarine on Crescent Island last time; he had seen the summary archives of the last war.

"Ma Xiaoshuai, Gan Xiaoning, bring the man here to me!"

Gao Cheng rushed towards the hillside.

"Wu Zhe, block off the hillside and don't let anyone get over!" Yuan Lang roared.

The two men simultaneously vented their anger on the same point.

How did this person die? Why did they die here?

More importantly, what is the background of this group of people? They came here with Feng Yuxiu's photo to specifically find someone!
"Gentlemen, please step aside, we have something to do."

Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning, limping, led their men to disperse all the armed police and public security officers to the side.

Military camouflage barriers were instantly erected on the hillside.

Seeing Gao Cheng and Yuan Lang approaching menacingly, the group of men with buzz cuts were so frightened that they all shrank back. However, they were tied up tightly, and when they tried to retreat, they all fell to the ground.

Gao Cheng picked up an iron rod and stood in front of the group, asking, "Who told you to come looking for someone?"

He didn't ask if they killed the person; everyone knew that these few bastards couldn't possibly harm Feng Yuxiu.

The men with buzz cuts all lowered their heads and remained silent.

Gao Cheng grinned.

Ten minutes later, the leader, his voice trembling, pleaded, "I'll talk, I'll talk, I really can't take it anymore, I'll talk."

"The person who told us about the mission was a foreigner. I met him a few years ago in Yunnan. At first, he just said..."

boom!
A stick struck him on the back.

"I'll ask one last time, how did you find out about this landmark?"

"He sent us here, saying that the last person to find the photo disappeared in this area... We really don't know anything else. We've been searching for days, and that madman chased us here with a gun."

"We are also the ones who just discovered the photo."

Gao Cheng slowly clenched his fists, his right hand reaching for his waist.

Yuan Lang sighed, stepped forward, and pressed down on Gao Cheng's right hand. "Let the police handle this."

"We'll discuss the specifics after the autopsy."

"Those are my soldiers! The soldiers I have the highest hopes for!!"

Gao Cheng completely erupted.

"He survived such a brutal war, how could he die here! In this dilapidated mountain ravine!!!" "Tell me, why did he die here? It must be these foreigners!"

Gao Cheng turned and stared at Yuan Lang. "He killed a lot of high-ranking figures from foreign forces, so he's been targeted. The fact that he was able to pinpoint this place in such a large area means he's been watched for a long time."

"So what if he's physically invincible? This is the age of firearms! It's not that simple!"

Gao Cheng's anger silenced Yuan Lang.

"These traitors...this group..."

"Gan Xiaoning, wipe them all out! Leave no one alive!"

Gan Xiaoning stood awkwardly at a distance.

This was definitely just the battalion commander saying something in anger; there are some things they can only listen to and let go of.

The murders that occurred in Wangdu Village have alarmed many people.

Ruiyang Mining was shut down that day.

-

-

On the third day, the troops and armed police around Wangdu Village finally withdrew.

Feng Yuxiu limped out of the town's health center, staring blankly at the street.

"How many days have I been here? Why is there no one on the street? It's daytime."

His legs started swelling so badly while he was hospitalized that he couldn't walk, and he's been groaning in pain for the past three days.

I can only fall asleep after taking sleeping pills and sedatives every night.

However, the hallucination he had seen in the village did not reappear in the past three days, and he no longer saw the sinister and ferocious face in the mirror.

This convinced him that the doctor was right and that he really did have hallucination psychosis.

The swelling finally subsided today, but... he plans to leave Wangdu Village.

After all, he's not that tree; the mismatch in bone age will be discovered sooner or later.

Moreover, the tree's corpse was found in the valley, so maybe he was a fugitive before he lost his memory?

This thought kept him awake all night.

After standing by the roadside for a long time, he didn't see a single taxi come by. Usually, the area in front of the town's health hospital is full of taxis.

"What happened?"

Feng Yuxiu went to the supermarket next door to buy a pack of cigarettes. As soon as he entered, he saw the owner squatting there with a worried look on his face.

"Boss, I'd like to buy a pack of cigarettes."

The boss stood up and stared at Feng Yuxiu in astonishment. "How dare you come out here?! Are you out of your mind?"

Feng Yuxiu asked in bewilderment, "Why don't I dare to come out?"

"Haven't you heard?"

Feng Yuxiu thought for a moment, and it seemed that he had heard something about a butcher at the hospital, but he thought it was just someone telling a story and didn't pay attention.

"Did you know something big happened in Wangdu Village a few days ago? A butcher killed hundreds of people. The army even came..."

Feng Yuxiu was stunned. "Boss, are you crazy?"

"What are you talking about? How am I crazy? Everyone knows this. Didn't you see the streets are deserted? I heard that butcher can still wander around at night."

"No, no, that's not it. Wangdu Village only has about eighty people in total, where did you get hundreds of people from?"

The boss paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "Anyway, it's very dangerous. There aren't many people left in Wangdu Village now. Taxis don't go there anymore. So many people have died, and with such a huge commotion, no one in the town dares to come out."

"Oh."

Feng Yuxiu's heart tightened. Who died in Wangdu Village? Who did it? Was it Lao Gao? He seemed so honest, he didn't look like it.

Feng Yuxiu took the cigarette, grabbed a lighter, and went outside.

After thinking it over carefully, he took out his mobile phone and called Dezi.

We need to figure things out first, and besides, there's some money in the house that he wants to take with him.

Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to reach Jitai County.

Wangdu Village has been in some chaos lately.

"Dezi, it's me, Shu. I broke my leg a few days ago and stayed in the town hospital for three days. I can't get a taxi. Could you come and pick me up?"

Dezi's voice was filled with excitement, "Brother Shu, I thought you were dead! Where are you? I'm coming to pick you up now."

Feng Yuxiu was stunned, not understanding why Dezi was so agitated.

"I'm standing next to Hongxia Supermarket, a few hundred meters to the left of the town hospital entrance."

"Okay, okay, Brother Shu, wait for us. We're right in town, we're coming..."

Ten minutes later, Dezi and Xiaozhuang opened the car door, waved furtively, and whispered, "Brother Shu, come on over."

Feng Yuxiu frowned and got into the car.

"Dezi, drive to our usual spot quickly."

Feng Yuxiu didn't ask any more questions; he also wanted to know what had happened in Wangdu Village these past few days.

The car eventually stopped at the foot of the mountain on the edge of the town.

"It's safe here."

After the two got out of the car, they took out chicken and duck meat and a few bottles of beer from the trunk, and then moved a table out from the back and set it up.

What exactly happened to Wangdu Village?

Feng Yuxiu subconsciously took out a cigarette and asked.

"Ugh, don't even mention it..."

Five minutes later, Feng Yuxiu was stunned, not even noticing that the cigarette butt in his hand had burned his fingers.

"Is Lao Gao really that amazing?"

"What do you think? He was the most ruthless guy in our village. It's a pity he was shot on the spot..." Dezi sighed and took a swig of wine.

"No matter what, he's a real man, and I admire him."

Dezi stood up and poured the half-empty bottle of wine on the ground. "May you rest in peace, Lao Gao."

"Where is the village chief?" Feng Yuxiu asked. Old Gao had made such a big fuss just to find the village chief.

"The village chief? The village chief rushed to the county town as soon as he heard the news, but strangely enough, he was arrested the next day, supposedly because investigators from higher up had come. Think about it, the village chief embezzled so much, he's definitely not going to get out..."

"Where's Erzhu?"

“Erzhu is fine, he’s not a village official. I heard his factory will reopen in a few days.” Xiao Zhuang sighed. “It’s a pity I’m unemployed, Ruiyang Mining closed down. You know Jiao Shengli, right? That Boss Jiao, he was taken down by Lao Gao…”

Xiao Zhuang rubbed his neck with his right hand.

"Then why did so many troops arrive when only a few people died?"

Dezi stopped drinking. "I don't know. Those are all classified matters. How could an ordinary person possibly know?"

Feng Yuxiu threw away his cigarette butt. "Has any of you been to the village?"

"Brother Shu, what are you planning to do? The village is in a really bad luck situation right now, who would dare to go there?"

Feng Yuxiu shook his head. "I don't know. I should go and see. I have a feeling that I should go and see. It's an intuition."

Xiao Zhuang and De Zi exchanged a quick, furtive glance.

Dezi lowered his voice, "I think it's true now. Brother Shu's mysterious ways must have been inherited from his father's yin-yang skills. Maybe all these things in the village were caused by Brother Shu."

"What should we do then? The whole village is empty right now, there's not a single person here. Isn't it creepy to stay in such a big village at night? What's the difference between that and living in a mass grave? Are you going?" Xiao Zhuang asked rhetorically.

"Why don't we go? Brother Shu might have something. If it's true, we'll be rich. At the very least, we can go to Ruiyang Mining to inspect the junk. They'll definitely be in a hurry to leave, and maybe they have cash in their drawers."

Dezi's greed has gone to his head. He and Zhang Xiaomei are about to get married, but they're still short of money. He's been working day and night to attract customers, but in the end, he's still far from enough.

"Okay, I'm unemployed anyway, I'll go take a look."

"Okay, Brother Shu, let's eat something first, and then we'll go take a look together."

Dezi smiled.
