Chapter 422 We must repay Luo Zhiqing's favor!

Meanwhile, outside, the battalion commander was leading a group of militiamen, guarding a group of enemy agents.

Big Bear originally wanted to resist and wait for an opportunity to strike, but when he saw that all his companions had fainted, he immediately cried out in alarm.

However, he did not completely lose hope, but waited for a new opportunity. He firmly believed that as long as one is alive, there is always a chance.

They were specially trained agents who had encountered even the most difficult situations. Therefore, after a brief period of discouragement, Big Bear rekindled his fighting spirit.

But the sudden explosion that followed immediately put everyone on edge.

At this moment, a series of loud explosions came from behind the tree hole, making people on the ground feel as if the earth was shaking. Everyone thought it was an earthquake.

"Captain, this is bad! The earth dragon has risen up! We need to get out of here right now!"

Hearing what his subordinates said, the captain gave the guy a slap on the shoulder, clearly annoyed.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! What earth-shaking event? That's enemy agents sabotaging us. They're planting explosives underground!"

"There must be something extremely important to them underground! Therefore, we absolutely cannot let these enemy agents get away with this. They are definitely up to something that could disrupt our prosperity and stability!"

The captain's words sent a chill down everyone's spine.

"The captain is right! We can't let them get away with this so easily!"

"But we're not tomb raiders, and we don't know anything about these things. How are we supposed to go down and look?"

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but frown.

The captain, however, spoke very calmly:

"This matter is beyond the control of our brigade. Erzhuzi, Ergouzi, you two are quick-witted and fast runners, hurry back to the village and report to the village secretary!"

"Have the village party secretary report to the commune and the county. You two explain to the village party secretary that the situation is extremely serious. We'll be here guarding these enemy agents; you two hurry to the village to warn them!"

"Have someone from above send down here immediately to take over this matter, and they must get here as quickly as possible. This is a major enemy spy case, and we cannot afford to be careless!"

Upon hearing their captain's words, Liu Erzhu and Liu Ergou immediately agreed:

"Yes, Captain, let's set off now!"

The battalion commander made a quick decision and then instructed the other militia members:

"Listen up, everyone else! Be on your guard and stay put. Grab your weapons, take turns standing guard, and keep a close watch on these enemy agents!"

"We must stand firm at our posts until the leaders from the commune and county arrive!"

Upon hearing this, the militia members immediately perked up. They all knew this was a chance to make a great contribution, and they couldn't afford to make any mistakes. Therefore, not one of them dared to be careless.

The tomb raiding team next to them couldn't help but sigh, feeling that they had really had the worst luck in the world.

They were finally close to finding their goal when this happened. Does this mean their journey to the burial site is over?

It would be a lie to say I'm not frustrated to watch this opportunity slip away right before my eyes!

Just think about it, there was so much money right in front of them, but because of the sudden appearance of these enemy agents, all their plans were ruined. How could they not hate them?

They couldn't wait for these enemy agents to die!

However, they all knew very well that their identities were not plausible.

If someone discovers a loophole in their identity, they're completely finished.

So at this point, although Lao Wu and his colleagues were in a geological research position, they were actually in a very awkward situation.

They desperately wanted to go inside the tree hollow and take a closer look, but they didn't want to arouse suspicion from the militia. They were suddenly caught in a dilemma.

At that moment, the captain directly addressed Lao Wu and the others:

"Captain Wu, how about this, you take your men and go down the mountain with Erzhuzi and the others."

“It’s getting dark now. You intellectuals can’t stand the conditions in the mountains. We will also credit you for your contribution in blocking the enemy agents this time.”

"If it weren't for your team members letting Erzhuzi come back and tip us off, they might have succeeded."

"Furthermore, after you returned, you also helped kill two people. These are great contributions, and we will remember them all and will not treat you unfairly!"

Old Wu was practically cursing under his breath; they were trying to kick them out!

However, in a sense, this is also a good thing for Lao Wu and his group. The current situation is very unfavorable for them, so it's better for them to stay put at Crescent Moon Mountain.

Therefore, Old Wu could only agree to one thing:

"Okay, we'll follow the brigade's arrangements."

"Captain Zhang, you also need to be careful. There may be other enemy agents lurking around. Please be extra careful."

Captain Zhang couldn't help but smile and said:

"Don't worry, Lao Wu, we will definitely be careful."

"Several key enemy agents have been arrested and brought to justice. I don't think they can cause any more trouble."

"Our militia is made up of heroes, and every single one of them is a hero. Don't underestimate us!"

Hearing them say that, Old Wu could only force a smile.

At this moment, Captain Zhang couldn't help but say to Liu Erzhu and the other man who were about to descend the mountain:

"Erzhuzi, Ergouzi, have Luo Zhiqing come over here too!"

"Prepare a weapon for her too. We'll feel more at ease with her around! This educated youth, Luo, is quite capable. With her in charge, no one can cause any trouble!"

Upon hearing the captain's words, Liu Erzhu and Liu Ergou's eyes lit up.

This is a great task! I can finally talk to Luo Zhiqing more openly and honestly!

You can also go up the mountain with Luo, the educated youth, and maybe even spend the night in the mountains. Just thinking about it makes me feel wonderful.

It's a pity that I can't be alone with Luo Zhiqing; there are other team members around, but it's already pretty good.

Normally, Luo Zixi wouldn't bother with them.

Little did they know that Luo Zixi, deep underground, had already learned of Captain Zhang's arrangements through her pet, and she couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed.

Wow, I'm really amazing, I'll definitely be remembered!

This task of capturing enemy agents is clearly the responsibility of the militia team; why is a female educated youth like her getting involved...?

It's all because she was too famous before. She made great contributions when catching enemy agents, and even turned Crescent Moon Mountain into a hero's brigade.

Could they forget her contribution? Naturally, they'd want to include her in the equation...

Fortunately, Luo Zixi has already thoroughly investigated the entire underground base. Furthermore, it will take some time for Liu Erzhu and Liu Ergou to descend the mountain. She is currently completing the final stage; once everything inside is removed, there shouldn't be any further problems.

At that moment, a peculiar object quickly caught Luo Zixi's attention.
