(0128) With Tang Lan as the captain of a small mecha unit, it is impossible to have a very high cultivation level, not to mention that there are so many masters in the Mianluo Military Base, even if he Xia Xingxiao is out of the horse, he can catch Tang Lan. It's really strange, what mistake did she make, worth a million merit points?

Liu Zongzhou didn't realize how wrong he had been. He is willing to exchange one million merit points for Tang Lan, which is tantamount to telling Xia Xingxiao unmistakably that this Tang Lan is a very important person, and the brown-tailed tiger is determined to win. Moreover, the inside story of the arrest of Tang Lan cannot be made public. Arrests must be carried out in secret.

That's interesting. Even if Xia Xingxiao's IQ is not very high and her social experience is not very rich, you can guess that it must be some high-level of the Brown-tailed Tiger, who may have some unsavory secrets, and Tang Lan knows about it, so they will be so anxious to arrest her. Even, they may want to kill people.

"Kill people?"

This thought made Xia Xingxiao look uncontrollable.

Regarding Liu Zongzhou's behavior, Xia Xingxiao has always speculated with the worst psychology. Therefore, he was not surprised at all by the thought that came to his mind. He immediately thought that if Liu Zongzhou and the others really wanted to kill people and kill them, would they want to meddle in this matter?

The information obtained from Li Yuji shows that this Tang Lan should not be an ordinary person. Since someone wants to kill her, it is estimated that the inside story she knows must be very serious. If that's the case, those who want to kill her are probably also very well-established and powerful. So, do you want to meddle in this matter?

"Forget it, don't think about it. ”

Xia Xingxiao shook his head and cleared out the distractions in his mind.

Now that the decision has been made to meddle in this matter, there is no need to continue to hesitate. To be honest, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to extort a million merit points. One million is a good start, and perhaps, next time, the harvest will be even richer.

Xia Xingxiao took out his military card and wanted to receive one million merit points on the spot. Liu Zongzhou and others were heartbroken, their hearts were like knives, but they were helpless. They had to scrape together enough merit points of one million and handed them over to Xia Xingxiao stupidly. Xia Xingxiao's military card flashed yellow, and there was an extra million merit points in it.

"Okay, you guys go in!"

After getting enough benefits, Xia Xingxiao immediately moved out of the way.

Liu Zongzhou and the others were obviously in a hurry. They didn't have time to say anything to Xia Xingxiao, so they hurriedly entered the sinkhole.

"A bunch of samples!"

Xia Xingxiao patted the general's card, put it away, and then followed behind and walked in slowly.

After a while, Liu Zongzhou and the others disappeared. Obviously, they were really in a hurry to find Tang Lan. However, the area of the sinkhole is very large, and the terrain is also very complicated, and it is not easy for them to find Tang Lan in a short period of time. Wherever they passed, they couldn't see any clues.

And so it was. ”

Xia Xingxiao suddenly nodded thoughtfully.

Obviously, the woman named Tang Lan must have been hiding.

If she is not afraid of the search and rescue team finding her, her approach should be to leave her traces everywhere as much as possible so that the search and rescue team can find her. It's not hard to leave a mark. On the contrary, it is most difficult to leave no trace at all. Presumably, it was because she was worried that the search and rescue team would find her, so she would hide herself.

I believe that she already knows what kind of fate she will face, and I believe that she also knows very well what kind of treatment she will have after being found by the brown-tailed tiger search and rescue team. Therefore, she was in the sinkhole, leaving no traces. From a certain point of view, this Tang Lan seems to be a master. At the very least, he is a master of concealment.

"Interesting, interesting. ”

Xia Xingxiao said to herself. This thing is getting more and more flavorful.

After walking in the sinkhole for a while, Xia Xingxiao met Li Yuji and them. They are carrying a large number of medicinal herbs to an open area and piling them up. These guys are really ruthless, and almost all the medicinal materials in the sinkhole have been dug up by them. Looking around, there is a wolf. It is estimated that this sinkhole, after being ruined by them, really did not leave a single hair.

Xia Xingxiao looked at Li Yuji, who was almost toothless and couldn't see his eyes, and said sullenly: "Do you want to be so crazy? Even the roots have been dug up, how will they grow in the future?"

Li Yuji said with a smile: "Will it be later? Can it wait until later? If we don't dig it all up, someone will come to clean it a second time soon." Do you think that after being cleaned by others, there will still be a little bit left? Dream on you!"

Xia Xingxiao stopped talking. Li Yuji is right, if they don't dig up these good things quickly, and wait for the next group of people to arrive, it is estimated that even the ground will be dug three feet deep. Dig as much as you can, and there will be no shops in this village after that.

When Li Yuji and the others were looking for medicinal materials everywhere, the five sand worm larvae were still looking for traces of the rescue cabin. And the people of the brown-tailed tiger are also desperately searching for the shadow of the rescue cabin. Judging from their movements, they basically ignored the medicinal herbs around them.

It's not that they look down on the medicinal herbs around them, it's that they're too anxious. They seemed to really want to find Tang Lan's location. But, strangely, they searched for a long time, but they just didn't find it. Tang Lan and her mecha seemed to have disappeared mysteriously. Xia Xingxiao could clearly see that cold sweat was coming out on Liu Zongzhou's forehead.

"What kind of secret does this Tang Lan know? It seems to threaten the entire Brown-tailed Tiger? Isn't she just a captain officer? Where did she get such great energy? Does the Brown-tailed Tiger seem to be so vulnerable?" Xia Xingxiao began to guess suspiciously.

Of course, his conjecture will not lead to anything. All questions must be answered by Tang Lan. It's a pity that Xia Xingxiao kept using the toad skill to reconnoitre, but he didn't find the slightest discovery. Obviously, Tang Lan was not nearby. At the very least, it is not within the reconnaissance range of Toad Gong. She must have gone into hiding in a more remote place. The terrain of the sinkhole is complex, and there are many hidden caves, so it is really easy to hide a person.

"There's a discovery!"

"Tang Lan's mecha has been discovered!"

Finally, two hours later, the sandworm larvae were discovered. Immediately, Lin Fei and Zheng Dongming, who were the top soldiers, both fed back relevant information at the same time. Xia Xingxiao urged Biluo Hongchen without thinking, and after a while, he appeared on the scene.

This is a corner of the sinkhole, and the space is very large. The surroundings are full of rocks in the shape of stalagmites, mushrooms, arched bridges, etc. A full-fledged mech, deeply stuck between two massive rocks. On top of the mecha, there is also a large arch bridge that just covers the top of the mech. You read that right, it's a complete mech, not a pure rescue pod.

The height of this mecha is a full fifty meters. Such a behemoth, I don't know how it fell, ended up stuck in the middle of the rock. There is no doubt that this is definitely not the place where the mecha first fell, it was driven here by Tang Lan.

Judging from the location of the rocks and arch bridges, it is necessary to be a very skilled driver to accurately jam the mech into the empty seat. If there is a slight mistake, either the rock is smashed or the arch bridge is broken. From a professional point of view, this Tang Lan is definitely a mecha master.

In other words, Tang Lan was definitely alive when she fell into the sinkhole. She can also pilot the mech and hide in this remote corner. She stuck the mech between two rocks in order to hide it. It's a pity that it was finally discovered.

Liu Zongzhou and the others hurriedly jumped up to check. Obviously, the results disappointed them. Tang Lan wasn't in the mecha at all. I don't know what I thought, the cold sweat on Liu Zongzhou's forehead began to pour down again.

Xia Xingxiao deliberately walked over and said with a smile, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

When Liu Zongzhou saw Xia Xingxiao now, it was like seeing a poisonous snake, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of fear and nausea in his heart. He hurriedly distanced himself from Xia Xingxiao. Then, he didn't even answer Xia Xingxiao's words, and left in a hurry.

Li Yuji said strangely: "Inside the mecha, Tang Lan's life-saving cabin was not found. Could it be that Tang Lan's rescue capsule was launched ahead of schedule?"

Lin Fei shook his head and said, "It's not." The rescue pod of this mecha has no traces of launch. Tang Lan should have fallen with the mecha. The mecha is intact, and Tang Lan should be fine. But, it's strange, where did she run away if she didn't stay in the mech?"

This question is indeed a bit strange. In fact, there are still many dangers in the sinkhole. Tang Lan's own strength was the level of a fourth-level cultivator. If she wanders around the sinkhole alone, it will be almost impossible to move an inch! From a rational point of view, the only way to hide in the mecha is the safest. This mech is very thick and can block most dangers. Tang Lan should wait in the mecha to be the safest.

Only Xia Xingxiao didn't feel any surprise at all. If Liu Zongzhou and the others had come to arrest Tang Lan, she must have realized the danger and would have run away a long time ago. Waiting inside the mecha, isn't this a self-defeating trap? However, the area around the sinkhole is indeed full of dangers. Tang Lan was only a fourth-level cultivator, so it was indeed impossible for him to run very far. She should be hiding nearby.

It is estimated that Liu Zongzhou also thought of this, and he immediately commanded the soldiers of the brown-tailed tiger, with the mecha as the center, to conduct a fan-shaped search around. When he assigned the task, he deliberately glanced at Xia Xingxiao a few times, obviously worried that Xia Xingxiao would interfere in this matter. Fortunately, Xia Xingxiao had been observing the mecha all along, and there was no sign of meddling at all, so Liu Zongzhou was relieved.
