Rotting Land: Survive-Chapter 403 - 401: Great Escape in the Well Shaft (Part 3)

Chapter 403: Chapter 401: Great Escape in the Well Shaft (Part 3)

The autumn wind brushed past, the weeds swayed.

The short man cursed as he walked further into the tent, but before he could move, he felt a chill on his neck. Reflexively reaching up, he found his palm covered in warm blood.

He tried desperately to shout, but his neck, pierced by the edge of a porcelain bowl, could only produce a faint gurgling sound and nothing more.

"Bang! Bang!" He fired two shots aimlessly, and the bullets from the Type 92 pistol narrowly grazed Guo Xiaohua’s ear.

He coldly stared at the beast in front of him, the right hand holding the bowl dripping with blood.

After firing two shots, the short man collapsed weakly to the ground, his pierced neck gushing blood like a fountain.

He never imagined that this supposed surprise attack, devoid of danger, would mark the end of his life.

He gazed despairingly at the man in front of him, hoping desperately for a rescue.

But the other remained indifferent, his eyes icy cold.

The gunshot alarmed the group inside the tent, prompting them to rush out immediately.

The first sight outside was the blood-soaked Guo Xiaohua and the short man on the ground in the last moments of his life, clutching his neck and convulsing.

No questions were needed; the situation was clear.

Ergouzi’s face bore a sneer as soon as he recognized the culprit’s appearance.

"Damn, Guo Xiaohua! You’re quite bold! Your wife was toyed with, and you still don’t get it! Today even..."

"Bang!" A gunshot interrupted Ergouzi’s sentence. He stared incredulously at the man in front of him, then slowly lowered his gaze to his own chest.

Blood gushed out like a fountain. Stumbling back a step, his raised right hand hinted at wanting to say something, but in the end, he collapsed heavily to the ground after uttering "you."

"Bang!" The crowd was stunned, the remaining henchmen frozen in place as if their souls had departed.

"Bro, brother! Let’s talk this out! Put the gun down first!"

"Yeah, yeah! We’re not here to cause you trouble! We’re here for the people in this tent!"

"Right, right! We don’t know what those two did; it has nothing to do with us! Let the enmity be theirs to bear!"

... 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

The henchmen shirked responsibility, having lost their earlier arrogance and dominance.

Guo Xiaohua ignored their pleas, coldly sweeping his gaze over their faces before slowly turning his gun.

The beasts who had assaulted Guo Xiaohua’s fiancée numbered five, and now his gun was aimed at the third of them.

Looking at the gun, which had just spat fire and was still cloaked in the smell of gunpowder, the third beast trembled: "Guo... Brother Guo, listen to me, I was forced that day, I didn’t do anything to your fiancée, it was completely them..."

"Bang!" Another shot.

The cold bullet cut short the "third person’s" explanation.

The gun continued to move, perhaps realizing his fate, the "fourth person" knelt down in horror, immediately soaking his pants with a puddle of filth.

Nothing more needed to be said. Since he stepped forward himself, it spared Guo Xiaohua the trouble of finding him.

"Bang!" A gunshot echoed, and the man fell!

In just one minute, four accomplices were killed consecutively, leaving the sole survivor finally unable to withstand the threat of death, charging at Guo Xiaohua with a roar, knife in hand.

Unfortunately, his "fearless" move appeared like suicide to Guo Xiaohua.

"Bang!" The bullet hit the last man’s head squarely, and the knife raised above his head never managed to split open Guo Xiaohua’s skull, stopping just a meter away from him.

With the fall of the last man, Guo Xiaohua exhaled a long breath of relief.

"B-big brother! We have nothing to do with this! Spare us!"

"Yeah! You’ve killed the ones you needed to! We’re innocent!"

The remaining bandits, seeing Guo Xiaohua exhale, thought he must have vented his anger, and hurriedly seized the chance to plead for mercy one last time.

However, after Guo Xiaohua finished exhaling, he unexpectedly raised his head again, this time aiming the gun directly at the first man in front of him.

With events unfolding to this point, Guo Xiaohua doubted he had any chance of surviving.

So, if he was going to die, he might as well take a few more beasts down with him, contributing to Lin Junfu and the others’ escape.

With this decision, Guo Xiaodong’s face twisted, but just as he was about to pull the trigger and deal with the beasts in front of him, a crisp gunshot sounded from behind him, one step ahead of him.

With a sullen face, Scar approached, his 92-type semi-automatic pistol emitting wisps of smoke.

He had fired at the back of Guo Xiaohua’s head, leaving the latter unable to resist as he fell forward to the ground.

In an instant, a cold autumn wind swept across, chilling Guo Xiaohua’s face.

This valiant man had ultimately fallen under the bandit leader’s gun, yet his lips bore a hint of a satisfied smile.

"Damn! What the hell is going on! I told you to capture Lin’s group! How did it turn into this!" Dai Sha was truly furious, having realized something was wrong when he heard the gunshots in the lounge. However, he had arrived a step too late.

"Speak up! What on earth happened! And where is Lin’s group!?"

His gun went from one surviving henchman’s head to another, frightening them into trembling.

"B-boss, w-when we got here, Lin’s group was already gone, and then this Guo, Guo Xiaohua suddenly appeared and ambushed us..."

"Bullshit!" A kick landed on the speaking henchman, and Dai Sha roared with bulging eyes: "Stop standing there like idiots! Go find that Lin guy! Also, guard the four gates! Shoot any approaching creatures on sight! Now move! Move! Move!"

The ordered henchmen scattered like pardoned prisoners, rushing in all directions.

The series of gunshots reached Lin Junfu’s ears, causing his right hand, which was prying at the barrier, to pause involuntarily.

"What’s wrong? Old Lin? Is there a problem?" Seeing Lin Junfu suddenly halt, Hu Xiaodong asked, not without concern.

Snapping out of a brief daze, Old Lin decisively shook his head to dispel the frightening thoughts, saying "It’s nothing," before refocusing on the barrier in front of him...(To be continued.
