Chapter 130: The Sandstorm is Coming
An enormous boom, deafening, startled Leng Le and Hai. Its source seemed to be where Gu Fan and his group were, a bad omen creeping into their minds.
"Everyone, speed up." Leng Le rushed out right away without a second thought. No time to worry about being the mantis or the oriole, fearing if they were a step late, all the benefits would be gone.
Dashing forward, Leng Le soon saw smoke billowing up. He immediately knew the cause of the loud noise just now – it was an explosion.
"No way, Gu Fan could even cause an explosion. I hope they are okay." As Leng Le and Hai got closer to the destination, they hastily stopped, then lay down on a sand dune to observe with their telescopes.
The smoke was emanating from a mountain. Many people around were watching; hundreds of them. The identities of these people, Leng Le knew too well.
"Didn’t expect their group to have already assembled, but ..." Leng Le looked at the red dot on his smartphone screen. It showed Gu Fan’s location also on that side of the mountain. This filled Leng Le with anxiety; it seems Gu Fan had encountered those people.
"Where are they, where are they?" Leng Le searched everywhere for Gu Fan. He then spotted several familiar figures near the campsite not far away from the mountain. Weren’t they Gu Fan, Su Hui, and others?
Hai furrowed his brow: "It seems they’ve been outnumbered and tied up, but it appears they are not in danger yet."
Nodding, Leng Le said: "They aren’t in danger for now, but that might change, given that Gu Fan and his group know too many secrets. Should we rescue them or not?"
Hearing this, Hai remained expressionless, knowing that Leng Le was testing him. Since his younger brother Jie was still over there, of course Hai would want to save him.
When the smoke gradually dispersed, Leng Le saw what looked like a large hole blown in the mountain wall. Some people ran into it, then ran out soon after, their faces filled with excitement as if heralding good news, which brought about a surge of excitement in others too.
