125: C125 A Small Town in Ruins

C125 A Small Town in Ruins

They fell on a barren hill, surrounded by a small forest, but because it was hot and dry all year round, the branches were dotted with a few leaves, and the leaves were almost yellow, as lifeless as the land that had been ravaged by the fires of war.

As they had already passed the border sentry post, the area they were in was desolate and uninhabited. Hence, they did not attract much attention. The two of them successfully landed.

Yin Lan's legs still did not feel anything. After landing, she could not stand up and could only sit on the ground.

In order to prevent the umbrella rope from entangling them, Hua Jingsheng could only follow her strength and place her on the ground. Then, he removed the belt on his shoulder and removed the parachute.

He lowered his body and lifted Yin Lan up and held her horizontally in front of his chest.

Yin Lan was still wearing her black gauze dress. Being carried like this. If the locals saw her, it would be another shock. After all, most of the people here were Muslims.

However, Hua Jingsheng didn't care. "We'll talk about it when our legs recover."

Fortunately, the weather in Syria was cooler than in Dubai. In addition, it was still early in the morning, so it wasn't considered hot.

The two of them passed through the woods and stood at the entrance of a welcoming wind. They looked into the distance and saw nothing but endless yellow sand.

"Where are we now? Which area are we going to?" Yin Lan asked in a low voice as she put her hand around Hua Jingsheng's neck. She narrowed her eyes and looked around the desolate area.

Hua Jingsheng was tall and tall. He stood proudly on the desolate mountain. Even though he knew that there might not be any people around and he was not sure where he was, his face was still calm and steady. It was as if everything was under his control.

This calmness and calmness was the reason why he had always been regarded as a great enemy by everyone. At the same time, he was respected and respected by everyone.

He looked around, carried Yin Lan down a small path, and walked straight down the mountain range.

When he reached the flat ground, he put down Yin Lan and took out the locator at his waist. The beeping sound was intermittent. It could be seen that the signal tower in this place was not spared. It had been damaged quite a bit, but it could still be vaguely identified. It could be said that there was no end to one's path.

"Give me a gun. This place is no longer safe. I don't want to be a burden to you." Yin Lan suggested as she looked at Hua Jingsheng taking out the locator and fiddling with the hygiene phone.

Hua Jingsheng did not stop what he was doing. He said quietly, "You are not a burden to me. You will be fine if you follow me."

"But it is too hard for you to do this." Yin Lan did not have the heart to do this. This place was full of danger. There could be an unexpected situation at any time. He might be able to deal with it by himself, but it was hard to guarantee that he would bring her along.

"Morsen and Seiffer will meet us at the front. The situation in Syria is too complicated. It is not suitable for us to stay for long. So we will arrive at Damascus tonight and enter the most crucial place to complete our mission." Hua Jingsheng heard her explanation. His dark blue eyes were deep and gloomy as he explained calmly.

"Alright." Yin Lan saw his insistence and could only remain silent.

Hua Jingsheng originally wanted to get in touch with Morsen, but the place they were in was too dangerous and there was almost no place to hide. It was too easy to be sniped. He put away the device and handed the satellite phone to Yin Lan. He carried her and continued to walk forward.

The sun was getting brighter and brighter. Although the weather was cooler than Dubai, it was no different than walking in the desert under the scorching sun. Because of the evaporation of the water vapor, the air had become exceptionally cracked.

After walking for more than an hour, they still could not find a place to stay. Even if Hua Jingsheng's physical fitness was excellent, even if Yin Lan was thin and small, it was still a little strenuous.

Hua Jingsheng's sweat fell like rain. Yin Lan used the black cloak to wipe his sweat, feeling extremely guilty.

Just as she was about to tell him to put down and rest for a bit, she saw a person walking unsteadily in front of her. Without waiting for Hua Jingsheng's instructions, Yin Lan quickly and accurately touched the gun at his waist. Their eyes met and they had a tacit understanding.

After that person approached, Yin Lan took the initiative to speak and asked with a smile, "Sorry to disturb you. May I ask how far the nearest town is from here?"

That person was wearing a white veil. He was walking in a daze. He was startled by Yin Lan's shout. He raised his head and looked at the black veil on Yin Lan's body. There was less vigilance in his eyes. But when he saw Hua Jingsheng behind her, he clearly took a step back. That man did not seem to be someone to be trifled with.

When she lowered her eyebrows, she saw that she was being hugged by a man. She did not feel that it was inappropriate at all. A displeased expression instantly appeared on her face.

"The nearest town is not far away. But it's useless for you to go there. There's no one in that town anymore."

Yin Lan saw that the person was unhappy. She knew that it was inappropriate for the patriarchal countries to see her being carried around by men like this, so she explained. "It is like this. My leg is injured and I want to find a hospital to take a look. I don't know where else I can go."

Hearing that Yin Lan was injured, the man's displeasure faded a little. He pointed to the east and said. "There is a small city there. Although there are not many people, there is the nearest medical center. You can go there and take a look."

"That's great. Thank you." Yin Lan's hand that was touching the gun did not loosen and continued, "How far is it from here?"

"You can see it after crossing the mountain in front. It will take you an hour to get there."

"Okay. Thank you for your guidance." Yin Lan smiled gratefully at that person.

"You are welcome." That person waved at her and turned to walk to the other side.

"Do you believe him?" Hua Jingsheng looked at the man. There was a trace of coldness in his dark blue eyes. He did not believe him.

"I think we can believe him. After all, we are not familiar with this place. The man does not look like a member of the organization. He looks weak, but his eyes are alert. He looks like someone who has been tortured by war." Yin Lan looked at him and said her opinion.

Hua Jingsheng did not insist when he saw her say so. He carried her and walked in the direction that the person pointed at earlier.

"Jingsheng, there is still an hour! We can rest for a while." Yin Lan could not bear to see the sweat flowing down his forehead.

"It is almost noon. The sun is too strong. If we do not find a place to avoid the sun as soon as possible, we will be dehydrated by the sun. I am fine. You don't have to worry."

Yin Lan saw that he insisted and stopped talking to him. He did not want to waste his energy.

After driving for an hour in the direction that person pointed, they indeed saw a pile of buildings similar to a small city. However, most of the buildings had already collapsed. The streets were filled with loess and empty buildings. It was as if the broken bodies were describing the cruelty of war.

The ruins that entered her eyes and the corpses that were piled up in the shade with white cloth made Yin Lan feel a shock in her heart. The people here looked at them with eyes that were almost numb and empty. Every empty space was filled with the numb feeling of being ravaged and the despair of not being able to see the future.

They were alive but could only curl up in a dark corner. They trembled bitterly when they saw it. When they saw someone come, they didn't dare to go forward and ask. The long period of mental torture made them almost lose their normal life and become numb.

"Looks like we have no way of getting anything out of them." Yin Lan looked at the pairs of eyes filled with despair and her voice was heavy.

"There are not many people on the street. There are still people who are injured. There should be traces of doctors." Hua Jingsheng was used to all of this. He had been walking on the line of life and death for a long time. He was already used to death and war.

Yin Lan looked at Hua Jingsheng's indifferent expression and could not help but tighten her grip on his hand. Although she had never heard Hua Jingsheng mention his own matters, she had always known that his past was definitely dripping with blood.

A person who had never experienced pain and despair would not be able to create an indestructible heart.

The small city was not big. One street could finish walking the entire city. After circling around the city, neither of them saw a suitable candidate. Yin Lan did not want him to carry her to walk on the streets and suggested to take a rest. Anyway, even if there was a situation here, they could find a place to hide.

Hua Jingsheng did not object. He found a relatively clean ground and put Yin Lan down. Using the break time, he sent their location to Morsen and the others. At the same time, he took the phone in Yin Lan's hand and sat on the ground. He dialed Morsen and the others' number.

Yin Lan tilted her head and looked at Hua Jingsheng who was sitting on the ground. In the past, she thought he was high and mighty. He was born to enjoy what everyone looked up to. He enjoyed all the nobility and the best. However, when she saw his calm manner of sitting down, she suddenly realized that he was also a normal person.

On the other side, Morsen and Seiffer had already been placed near the designated area by the helicopter. As they were the first to open fire on Vince and the others, they had taken the initiative. Once they landed, they disappeared without a trace. Vince and the others could not catch up to them even if they wanted to.

After landing, they contacted the person they had arranged to wait at the designated location. Just as they were on their way, they received a call from Hua Jingsheng.

"Boss, I have received your location. I am on the way to meet up with my own people. We will come to pick you up after we meet up." Morsen ran with Seiffer with a gun on his back. His voice was uneven and intermittent.

"Okay, contact me." Hua Jingsheng saw that the other party had accepted the call and decisively hung up the phone.

There was a limit to the power of a hygienic phone. If there was no guarantee that it could be charged, it would be saved if it could be saved.

"Hey! Why did you hang up? I still want to ask Lan how she is doing! Boss is really too overbearing!" Although Morsen was panting from running, he still could not hold back his complaints.

"Okay, we will know when we go to fetch Boss Ying. Boss's voice is very normal. I think the girl is safe." Seiffer slightly lowered his eyebrows and pursed his lips.

"You are right." Morsen nodded. "God knows when I saw Lan run out of Vince's helicopter and fall straight down. My heart almost jumped out."

Seiffer nodded in agreement. Indeed, when he heard that Hua Jingsheng decided to parachute himself, he was very surprised. Sheng was right. The boss treated the girl differently.

Yin Lan and Hua Jingsheng sat in the middle of a pile of ruins. They waited for Morsen and the others to arrive while glancing at the people walking on the road. They wanted to see who looked more like a doctor.

After a while, a man wearing a white gauze coat and carrying a box marked with red emergency symbol jogged behind a woman with a blue headscarf. He ran into another ruin in a hurry.1

Hua Jingsheng also saw it. Without saying a word, he carried Yin Lan and rushed over.
