BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1500 - Any Price
Chapter 1500: Any Price
In the dark night, a black car sped along the mountain road.
Xiao Ze was checking out the situation on the mountain road as he drove. He did not dare to be careless at all. He had heard about the situation when he was leaving the villa. With his boss sitting behind him, he was entirely focused on the task at hand.
“All the signals in the vicinity have been blocked. The Young Commander left his people at the foot of the mountain. If we go down and ask, we should be able to confirm if the Young Commander has left the mountain.”
“Let’s go to the place where the accident occurred and see what happened first.” Huo Tingxiao sat in the back, and his eyes were as dark as the night outside the window.
“Boss, there are some people out there...” Suddenly, Xiao Ze saw two figures running on the road, and he quickly slowed down and pulled over.
“It’s the Eldest Heir!” As Xiao Ze stopped the car, Chen Yichen ran over.
Huo Tingxiao rolled down the window and looked at these two who were in a sorry state. He frowned and asked in a deep voice, “What the h*ll happened?”
“Quick, save them...” Chen Yichen was panting slightly and spoke with difficulty, “The Young Commander and Yun Xi’s car fell down the cliff. They...those people have guns...”
Chen Yichen briefly explained what he had seen, and Huo Tingxiao snapped into action. He opened the door and let them get into the car.
“Let’s go down the mountain first. Right now, we’re not sure how many of them are here and whether there’s going to be an ambush in the mountains. If the other party came prepared, you’ll cause panic if you go up the mountain to ask for help. The guests might be ambushed and fall into the trap as they make their way down the mountain.”
“Then what should we do? We have no signals on our phones, so we can’t contact anyone outside.”
The people on the mountain could not help, and the people outside could not be contacted. The ravine was so deep you could not see the bottom, and there was a forest down there as well. In such cold weather, how could they go down and save them?
Furthermore, it was obvious that the attackers were well armed. They had nothing, and there was no way they could fight them unprepared.
As they drove toward the accident scene, Huo Tingxiao’s heart was heavy. Even if Mu Feichi was in a car with grade-10 bulletproof protection, it would be difficult for him to survive a fall from such heights.
If something had happened to Mu Feichi, there would be even more trouble to come.
The dust from the explosion had not completely dissipated, and the ground looked as if it had been blasted into a pit. The safety railing on the side of the cliff had been knocked down. The streetlights were dim, so they could not see what was happening in the ravine.
Huo Tingxiao looked at the pit on the ground that had formed from the force of the explosion. Under the dim light, he looked at the fragments on the ground and his heart sank.
This was a fragment from a portable short-range low-altitude air defense missile, and it could be operated single-handedly. If the enemy had heavy weapons like this and were coming for them, they would not leave without knowing if they were dead or alive.
Completing the mission until they witnessed their target’s death was the protocol of international mercenaries.
They had blocked the cellular signal beforehand, probably because they did not want anyone to contact people outside for help. Regardless of whether they were alive or dead, their next goal would be to find the car and the people at the bottom of the cliff.
They would definitely go to the bottom of the cliff to search. It would take a lot of time to go from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the cliff using the mountain roads, and they would probably have to pass through the primeval forest at the bottom of the mountain.
They could not possibly enter the forest to help them now. They had to use Mu Feichi’s men. There was no signal here, so they could only rush back.
“Get in the car and we’ll hurry back to the city. The other party is heavily armed, so we have to get professional help to save them in this wilderness.”
Chen Yichen clenched his fists. He looked at the darkness below the cliff, his cold eyes frosty.
He gritted his teeth and frowned, as if he had made a decision in his head. He suddenly turned around and followed Huo Tingxiao into the car.
As long as he could save Yun Xi, he would not mind paying any price.
