Chapter 161 The Batcave

() Boss Hu has been a bandit in Minshan for 35 years. In fact, Boss Hu is just 35 years old this year. He was born in a bandit family, starting from his grandfather’s grandfather during the "I Qing Dynasty"

, their family started this very promising career.

On this day, Mr. Hu stayed in his village, a temple built on the mountainside. I don’t know when this temple was built. Anyway, as long as Mr. Hu can remember, this temple has been a bandit den. Today

Life was hard, and even the bandits' house had no food left. Boss Hu and his brothers had not been able to live a good life of eating large pieces of meat and drinking large bowls of wine for several months.

In the past, there were caravans coming and going from time to time near the village. At that time, the caravans passing by this road basically had to give Hu Boss a sum of money to buy the road. So at that time, Hu Boss's life was really good.

Yes. But the situation has changed recently. There are still caravans on the trade road, but there are fewer and fewer small caravans with no background. And most of the teams that appear on this trade road have backgrounds that he cannot afford to offend. For example

Last time, when Boss Hu attacked a caravan selling tobacco and soil, he was shot and knocked down by several brothers. If Boss Hu hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, even he would have to explain where he was. Later, Hu

Only then did the boss realize that although the caravan was wearing casual clothes, in fact, they were just a bunch of idiots.

Fortunately, these people had no intention of settling a score with Boss Hu. After being worried for two months, Boss Hu gradually became relieved. But early that morning, as soon as Boss Hu woke up, there was a

The minions ran in in a panic.

"Boss, it's not good! A lot of ** are coming into the mountain!"

"What!" Boss Hu was startled. Although he defeated a few big soldiers last time, he had suffered a bigger loss. Moreover, it had been several months, and he wanted to take revenge.

It should have come a long time ago. Why was it delayed until now?

"Go out and have a look!" Boss Hu quickly calmed down. He picked up his box cannon and walked out. As he walked, he said, "Tell the brothers to pack their things. If something is wrong, we will go there."

Run in the back mountains!"

After leaving the village, Boss Hu followed the gangster and climbed over a mountain ridge. Then he leaned behind a big rock and poked his head out to look out. Surprisingly, a large group of gangsters had really entered the mountain.

Although the distance was still far, Boss Hu was born with good eyes. He squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and a new doubt arose in his heart.

The equipment of this team is so good. They all wear steel helmets, and the weapons in their hands are also unusual. Although they are far away, Boss Hu can still tell that the things in the hands of those soldiers are not made in Hanyang.

, most of the soldiers have American-made Springfield rifles in their hands, and in this team of more than 100 people, there are no fewer than eight Czech-style and more than 20 submachine guns.

"Damn it! Last time I killed Chang Kaishen's brother-in-law? Why did I send such a man here?"

But Boss Hu quickly realized that this team was probably not going after him. Not to mention those extraordinary people would not personally escort the smoke and soil, even if he really killed some extraordinary people last time

, it is impossible to delay for so long before sending such a small force to capture him. If this force is to be used to attack his mountain stronghold, it is really easy and effortless. But if it is to be used to search for mountains in such a large mountain

Arresting people would appear to be a shortage of manpower.

Taking a closer look, Boss Hu saw that there were several foreigners in this team, and Boss Hu became more relieved.

"It is estimated that there are a few foreign adults who want to pass by. The government is afraid that something will happen to their godfather, so they sent a group of people to escort them. But something is wrong? There is no road here? Where are they going?

?”



Mr. Bei was riding on a donkey, looking around with a telescope. Then he put down the telescope and said to a translator beside him: "How far is it from the big cave you mentioned? Are there many bats there?"

The young student did not know how to translate, so he turned around and asked the man who looked like an officer: "Batalion Commander Zhang, Mr. Bei asked how far it is?"

"It's almost time, the guide said. We'll be there around noon after climbing over the two mountain ridges in front."

The translator informed Mr. Bei of the situation. Mr. Bei turned around and said to the other people following him: "We will probably arrive at noon. If everything goes well, we can even go down to the cave to have a look today."

Bei Ye's mission this time is to examine bats in caves near Chengdu to determine whether these bats can carry special incendiary bombs.

"Generally, in caves with many bats, there are also many snakes. Fortunately, it is already the hibernating season for snakes, so there is less danger." Mr. Bei added.



Boss Hu quietly followed the team. The team first moved towards his village for a short distance, then turned around and headed south.

"What are they going to do in the south?" Boss Hu said.

"Isn't there a hole in the south? Legend has it that back then..." the little guy interjected.

"Is it for those treasures of King Zhang?" Boss Hu immediately remembered a local legend. It is said that when the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong occupied Sichuan, he hid the gold and silver jewelry he snatched in some caves near Chengdu. To the south

The cave is said to be one of them.

"Damn it, those foreigners will beat us Chinese for our precious doctrines. Humph, the cave is so deep that hundreds of people can go in and it's hard to say whether they can get out or not." Boss Hu said, "Let's follow up.

Let’s go and see what happens.”



At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the team arrived at the entrance of the cave. This is a cave entrance close to a mountain stream. It is already early winter, and it is quite cold on the mountain, but it is much warmer at the entrance of the cave. Firstly, this place faces the sun from the wind, and secondly from the

There is no burst of warmth coming out of the cave entrance. The semicircular entrance of this cave is quite large, and can accommodate three people walking in side by side. But after walking a few steps, you will find that the cave begins to shrink and become almost vertical.

The angle turns downward.

Mr. Bei picked up a stone and threw it down. After a while, the sound of the stone hitting the cave wall was heard from below, followed by the sound of the stone rolling rapidly.

"First there is a vertical section of about 35-40 meters, and then there is a very sharp downhill slope." Mr. Bei put away the stopwatch in his hand and said, "This is a very good place to set the net. We will need a lot of bats in the future.

When the weather is almost dawn, you can easily catch many bats by setting up a net here. However, you must also be careful not to put too many in the net at one time. Too many bats will be injured or even die.

The ratio is high. We just need healthy bats."

He found a stone and sat down, and then said: "It's just that we have to go down and take a look to find out how many bats there are in this cave. Let's take a rest."

If you want to know how many bats are in the cave a few months ago, you don't need to go down. You can wait at the entrance of the cave. In the evening, the bats in the cave will go out to look for food. By then, you can see them by staying near the entrance of the cave.

How many bats have flown out? But now, the bats have entered hibernation, so to accurately understand their status, going down to the cave is the most reliable way. And for cave enthusiasts like Mr. Bei, seeing

A cave seems a bit unsatisfying if you don't go down and wander around.



Boss Hu had been watching this strange team from a distance on a hilltop far away from the cave entrance. He saw the team arrived at the cave entrance and stopped there. They stayed there until three or four in the afternoon.

It was one o'clock. Then Boss Hu saw several people carrying a small box out of the cave entrance.

"What is that?" Boss Hu's eyes widened. "Did they really dig up those things? But they just brought out a small box. According to legend, there are definitely more treasures inside."

At this time, the weather began to change, and dark clouds began to gather from all directions. It looked like it was going to rain, and there was also a faint sound of thunder. This kind of weather is extremely rare in the Minshan Mountains in early winter.

"What the hell!" Boss Hu said in his heart, "Why is the weather so weird? Could it be that the 'Eight Kings' are angry?"

Heavy rain in the mountains often brings flash floods, mudslides and other messy troubles. So Mr. Hu decided to move to a safer place.

Just when Boss Hu was changing places, the team also left the entrance of the cave. The terrain was too low and was obviously unsafe when it rained. Finally, the team found a small platform halfway up the mountain and stayed there.

When the team set off, they expected that they would not be able to make it back in time that night, so they also made preparations for camping. The soldiers started to set up tents for American assistance, and the officers began to arrange open and hidden sentries for the night.

.While eating dinner, a few Americans began to discuss what they would see after going down to the cave.

"Master Bei, have you been to many caves like this?" Cowell asked vaguely as he stuffed a large piece of spam into his mouth with a look of disgust.

"I've been to a few, but it's not very common to see caves with so many long vertical passages."

"Actually, what makes me most uncomfortable is not those vertical passages, but those damn big cesspits! Those damn bats don't care about hygiene at all, they just hang there and poop every day for hundreds of years. Damn, that smell

It’s really… vomit… vomit…”

"Actually, the smell is pretty good. After all, it's winter now. And you even wore a gas mask! I was in the Philippines..."

"Are you done yet?! They are still eating!"

So a few people became quiet. At this moment, there was the sound of raindrops falling on the tent, and it was raining heavily outside.

"Do you think these bats are physically fit enough?"
