Although they didn’t get any weapons, Yu Siying and the others’ support gave Lin Yi and Zhou Liang a chance to breathe.
“This is too f*cking scary. If we had to continue for a while longer, both of us would have died here.”
“We wouldn’t just have died.”
Lin Yi gritted his teeth and said, “They’d probably have dragged us out to feed the dogs.”
“Boss, don’t disgust me. I’m not married yet.”
“Do you really think they’re kind people? Being fed to the dogs is considered a light punishment. Haha…”
“It’s great to be alive. When 1 go back, 1 have to arrange a series of ma.s.sages that lasts for three days and three nights.”
“When the time comes, let’s make an appointment. Even Zhonghai won’t be adequate for this. If we want to talk about ma.s.sages, we have to talk about the northeast. Compared to them, Zhonghai is like a younger brother.”
“You’ve said it. We’ll make an appointment then.”
The gunfire in the distance continued. The two of them were out of danger. They drove the Land Rover, which was riddled with holes, in the direction of the emba.s.sy.
“How far are we?” Lin Yi asked from the back seat.
“We’re about two kilometers away. We’ll be there soon.”
“How’s your injury? Can you hold on? If not, I’ll drive.”
“They’re all superficial wounds. They’re bearable.”
“Then keep going for now. I’ll help you bandage it when we get there.”
“Sounds good!”
“F*ck, what’s going on? Why is there a roadblock in front?”
“Roadblock?”
Just as the two of them thought that they were about to enter the safe zone, they suddenly saw a roadblock erected in front of them. It was about a meter tall and blocked the middle of the road without leaving any gap.
Moreover, the roadblock was composed of triangular supports, not the typical parking lot barriers.
Breaking through was not an option.
“Boss, we can’t pa.s.s.”
“Stop the car first,” Lin Yi said in a low voice.
“Let’s switch places. Then, you lie down and don’t let them see you.”
Lin Yi didn’t know what would happen next, but he could imagine that it wouldn’t be that smooth.
Zhou Liang was injured, so he could not let him drive the car anymore.
Without further ado, Zhou Liang stopped the car and sat in the pa.s.senger seat.
He also followed Lin Yi’s instructions and lowered his body to avoid being discovered.
Lin Yi was bold in his approach because he was confident that the opponents wouldn’t dare to fire recklessly, knowing their international reputation was at stake.
If they were to initiate aggression, Huaxia would not stand idly by.
Times have changed!
“I’ll bandage my wound first and check my injuries.”
“Okay!”
Lin Yi drove slowly.
The Meiguo soldiers in front of the roadblock pointed their guns at Lin Yi, as if asking the two of them to get out of the car for inspection.
“What do we do next?”
“We’ll see. I’ll go down and take a look.”
“Will this work? They’re pointing a gun at you.”
“It’s just the two of them. It’s not a big problem.”
With that, Lin Yi took a deep breath.
“I don’t know what will happen next. If someone else is lying in ambush nearby, I’ll create an opportunity for you. Drive away immediately. Don’t worry about me!”
“That won’t do. I can’t leave you behind!”
“That is an order!” Lin Yi said.
“Now, the whole world knows that the ore is in our hands. If these people s.n.a.t.c.h it away, Huaxia will get embara.s.sed. Remember that!”
“Yes, got it!” Zhou Liang said with reddened eyes.
“Why are you crying? I’m not dead yet. I’m just telling you the worst case scenario.”
“Got it.”
Seeing Lin Yi get out of the car, the Meiguon soldier in charge of blocking the way pointed his weapon at his head.
Lin Yi raised his hand and walked over carefully.
“What are you doing?”
“I suspect you of carrying a lethal weapon. I’m going to search you now.”
“Okay.”
Lin Yi didn’t resist. Instead, he looked around from the corner of his eye.
It seemed that there was no one here. In other words, there were only the two of them guarding this path.
In that case, the danger would be greatly reduced.
Lin Yi raised his hands and stood in front of the two of them.
One of them held a weapon against Lin Yi’s head, and the latter checked his body.
He was trying to find the ore hidden in his body.
Just as he was about to touch his lower back, Lin Yi counterattacked.
With his right hand, he grabbed the second person’s gun barrel. With his left hand, he took out the scalpel hidden in his lower back.
A cold light flashed, and a line of blood appeared on the neck of the person who had been searching his body. Blood splattered everywhere, even on Lin Yi’s face.
“F*ck!”
The second person looked furious, but Lin Yi didn’t give them a chance!
Just like before, Lin Yi waved the scalpel and cut the artery on his neck!
“Get out!”
Lin Yi called out, and Zhou Liang hurriedly got out of the car.
“Carry these two people to the car. The equipment on them will act as our supplies!”
Zhou Liang had a belly full of questions, but he did not ask at this time.
Instead, he listened to Lin Yi’s instructions and carried one of them back to the car.
“Take off their equipment,” Lin Yi said as he started the car.
“Boss, we’ll be able to return to the safe zone once we move the roadblock away. Why do we still need this?”
“This is a conspiracy. We might not be able to go back.”
Lin Yi drove back to the original road and headed in another direction.
“In order to obtain more ore, Meiguo would secretly cooperate with the other foreigners. This is also why they appeared here; they want to take advantage of the situation.”
Lin Yi looked around cautiously and said with a deep expression.
“What we encountered just now might very well be the first obstacle. There will be a second or even a third obstacle after that. We’ll definitely be stopped. If they learn that two people have been killed, they’ll have something on us. They can act even more unrestrained and it’ll be even more disadvantageous to our situation.”
“What are we going to do now? Meet up with them?”
“We can only give it a try.” Lin Yi said.
“When we tried to regroup earlier, they disrupted it. Even with official armed forces present, they didn’t hold back, which shows they had antic.i.p.ated our moves. That’s why they threw grenades to foil our plan. If we try to go back now, we’ll definitely face intense resistance; they won’t let us regroup easily.”
“Then the situation will not be easy to handle.” Zhou Liang said nervously.
“First, strip their weapons and bulletproof vests. I’ll try to find a way back, see if there’s any chance to escape. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll try to regroup with them. That’s the only thing we can do.”
“Alright!”
After a.s.signing the tasks, Zhou Liang dismantled the weapons and equipment of the two Meiguo soldiers according to Lin Yi’s request. He placed one set of equipment on the pa.s.senger seat for Lin Yi to use.
However, the corpse was not disposed of on the spot. Instead, they prepared to find a deserted place to dispose of them later.
Lin Yi drove the car through the city, but every road was guarded.
Most importantly, the local armed forces seemed to be on the same side as the Meiguons.
To Lin Yi, the pressure was mounting!
