Su Tang looked at Yuan Shengtao, who was leaning against the stone wall and had already fainted, with complicated eyes. For a moment, she wanted to just leave indifferently and ignore him. If it weren't for this guy, would she have ended up like this? !

But then she changed her mind, sighed, and walked over slowly.

He took out the medicine from the space and stuffed it into his mouth, and then took some ointment to apply on his two arms that were shot. In addition to the gunshot wounds, he had many other scratches and bruises of varying sizes, and his clothes were torn in many places, obviously from rolling down. It was unclear whether it was active or passive, but the injury was not fatal, so Su Tang ignored it.

I would save him because the two of them would not reach a life-and-death situation.

Besides, he also needs to finish the above matters!

This man is so arrogant that he thinks he has everything under control. It is a good thing for him to die like this. He must taste the bitter fruit of his own making! Now, let alone contacting the spies in the northern city, it is hard to say how many of the supernatural soldiers will be left if his confidants betray him.

Who else can be handed over to such a mess except him!

The most important thing is that she and Yuan Shengtao disappeared at the same time, and the guy who did it is very likely to accuse her of murder!

Only if Yuan Shengtao is alive can she be cleared.

Fortunately, not long after taking the medicine, Yuan Shengtao's breathing gradually stabilized.

Su Tang sat down beside him, not knowing how Zhang Chenxi and the others were doing. He thought that they should not be worse off than her. Zhang Chenxi was a man of good character and very alert. If Gu Chengruo did not want to anger the public, he would definitely not start with Xue Luo. Moreover, since he, the person he hated the most, had disappeared and his life or death was uncertain, the conflict would naturally not be intense.

Speaking of which, this whole thing is really shrouded in mystery.

Is Gu Cheng in the same group as the person who betrayed Yuan Shengtao? Is the mastermind behind this a government official? Is their ultimate goal just to kill Yuan Shengtao?

Also, where did those mutant beasts come from?

Do they have helpers nearby?

……

There were too many questions and she couldn't think of the answers for a while, so she had to give up temporarily.

Although Yuan Shengtao's condition improved, he had not yet woken up. Su Tang became impatient and dragged him in for a while. When he felt it was safer, he left him there and continued to explore southward.

And at this time, they were attacked.

The officer who fired the shot, Fang Mingxin, who was also Sheng Tao's adjutant, had decisively killed the soldiers who followed him, faked the scene, and then left.

It's not that he didn't want to go down to confirm the life and death of the two people, but the crack in the ground was too steep, so he had to give up this idea. At the same time, he felt that the possibility of the two people surviving was almost zero. Only then did he feel at ease to find the person who provided him with this hidden location and helped him kill Yuan Shengtao to report the situation.

Over there, the superpower army and the remaining mercenaries were focusing on dealing with the mutant beasts and did not notice them.

Fang Mingxin carefully left the camp and arrived at the agreed location.

"Successful?" asked the middle-aged man who was already waiting.

Fang Mingxin nodded, "He fell into the crack after being shot." He did not mention Su Tang. Originally, their plan was to target Yuan Shengtao. Su Tang was going to die anyway, so he did not want to cause trouble.

The middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction, "Very good."

As he spoke, he waved to the man behind him, who immediately handed him a bag of crystal cores. He happily took it and handed it to Fang Mingxin, "This is half of the reward. When you return to Central City, as long as the cause of Yuan Shengtao's death is explained reasonably, someone will pay you the other half."

Fang Mingxin took the crystal core and suppressed his excitement. "I'll make you satisfied. I'll leave first. If we take too long, it might arouse suspicion."

"Go."

Looking at his departing back, the subordinate behind the middle-aged man said, "Deputy City Lord, why didn't the City Lord just let this kid kill Yuan Shengtao, but threw him into the crack in the ground? What if he doesn't die, wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted?"

The deputy city lord glanced at him and asked, "Have you ever seen anyone come out alive from the crack in the ground?" The man thought for a while and shook his head. He only knew about the crack in the ground not long ago. The city was conducting a major cleanup because of the spies, and many people related to the spies were arrested. It is said that the city's high-level officials had different opinions on how to deal with these people. In the end, the city lord ordered them all to be thrown into this crack in the ground, and their lives and deaths were left to fate!

But so far, no one has been able to come out.

Thinking of this, he shuddered.

Now it turns out that the crack in the ground is a place of death!

He immediately stopped talking about this matter and turned to something else, "Haha, but can this guy be trusted? Will he go back and push the blame on our northern city?"

The deputy city lord changed the subject in unison, "No, you didn't see how excited he was when he saw the crystal core. He was reluctant to give up the other half, not to mention that someone of us would be keeping an eye on him. Strangely enough, I remember that the Central City treated the supernatural army very well... It's really greedy!"

greedy?

Yes, Fang Mingxin knew that he was greedy.

If he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't have stepped forward and said he wanted to help the beautiful Lu Nuan when she showed resentment in front of him!

If he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't have spent the night with her before leaving the city. Until now, the bone-melting happiness still remains in his body and mind.

If he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't have been possessive and wanted to snatch the woman away from the commander!

He could no longer tolerate him bullying the woman he loved. The scars on Lu Nuan's body were so pitiful and so heartbreaking!

If it were him, he would let her live like a queen, not a slave girl!

So, he accepted the deal from Northern City.

He knew that it was not just him who was betrayed, but also some people in the mercenaries. Even the mutant beasts that attacked were created at the instruction of the Lord of the Northern City, Lu Linfu.

Fortunately, those idiots in the mercenary army grabbed people's attention, giving him a better opportunity.

That boss Su is really unlucky.

However, it is best for her to be the scapegoat!

Fang Mingxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He is different from those mercenaries. He is also planning to stay in the Superpower Army, so it is necessary to have someone who can take the blame!

On the way back to the camp, he made himself look miserable and even caused some external injuries, then ran away in a nervous and panicked manner.

The unlucky "scapegoat" Su Tang didn't know that this crack in the ground was so terrifying, but was full of curiosity. Of course, she was also extremely cautious as she moved forward.

Until we came to an entrance.

Like the prelude, we finally entered the main story.

This entrance should be a spacious cave, but before she could go in, heavy and stiff footsteps came out from inside.

Hearing this noise, a strange expression appeared on her face.

She took two steps back and waited.

When the other party appeared completely in front of her, she confirmed her hearing ability. They were three low-level zombies!

Zombies of this level must have just transformed recently, their movements are slow, and their lethality is low, so they are easy to deal with.

Su Tang chopped left and right with the knife, like chopping watermelons, and the zombies' heads rolled to the ground.

There was no other movement inside for a while. She looked at the ground and tried to put the dead zombies into the space.

I don't know if it was because the head had been lost, or because the other party was a zombie, anyway, this time the space had no rejection reaction at all, and it was installed very smoothly, including the head. Su Tang couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

However, she soon became more curious about the cave.

The low-level zombie that just turned into... Could it be that this cave is connected to the outside world?

That would be best.

She might be able to climb up the cliff by herself, but there was absolutely no way she could do that with Yuan Shengtao. If there were other exits, the two of them might be able to leave here earlier!

She poked her head into the cave.

After a long time, there seemed to be a faint roar coming from inside.

High-level zombies?

She hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked back.

In any case, let’s wait until Yuan Shengtao wakes up.

Otherwise, if she went in, some zombies would come out and eat Yuan Shengtao when she wasn't paying attention, and she would suffer a great loss!

When Yuan Shengtao woke up, Su Tang felt that it should be night.

She couldn't see the sky, but the wind outside was getting cooler, so she guessed.

"It's you..." Yuan Shengtao said hoarsely, uttering two words dryly.

Su Tang took out his small bottle of water to moisten his throat, "Who else could be so unlucky than me? If you hadn't fallen down, I would have thought that you had arranged all this!"

Yuan Shengtao took a breath with an unpleasant expression and did not respond.

Su Tang guessed that he must be in a very complicated mood at this moment, so he didn't say much, but just sat back quietly and waited for a while before asking, "How do you feel now?"

"……not good."

"Well, that's normal."

Yuan Shengtao's mouth twitched, and Su Tang continued, "I wanted to find a way out now, but seeing you like this, it's hard for you to even stand up... Forget it, let's do it tomorrow, and get some sleep to recover your strength."

She felt that after another night, the situation would definitely be much better.

After all, she was very generous and gave him Xiao Yang's special medicine!

After a long silence, Yuan Shengtao replied "OK".

With him around, Su Tang no longer took things out of the space. Fortunately, the food and water were stuffed into the small bag in advance, so it was no problem to take them out at this time.

The two of them ate a little, drank some water, and then rested.

Su Tang said he was taking a rest, but actually he took the crystal core to practice.

No matter how strong her nerves were, it was impossible for her to sleep in a place like this.

As for Yuan Shengtao, Su Tang thought he would not be able to fall asleep either, but unexpectedly, this guy slept very soundly.

He should know that the most important thing for him now is to recover from his injuries and accumulate strength... Su Tang thought vaguely, and felt that although Yuan Shengtao had many problems, he was worthy of being a military commander at a young age. At least his psychological quality was very strong!

Silent all night.

Su Tang estimated the time and it should be the next day. She asked Yuan Shengtao again, "How is it?"
