Chapter 105 The Death of Haul
Just as they walked through the corridor and were about to reach the exit, there was a huge vibration in the entire grotto.
Xu An instinctively turned around, only to see a scene that made her scalp numb. A huge boulder hit the back of her head. Before she could react, her body was knocked away by a huge impact.
She barely managed to escape the attack of the boulder. Xu An didn't even have time to take a closer look to see what was throwing the stone.
A cry of pain from Hawuler was heard in his ears, mixed with the screams of the sand monster that was chasing after him, leaving Xu An stunned on the spot.
She turned her head and looked carefully. It turned out that it was Hawu Le who had fallen to the ground. One of his legs had been broken. The boulder was still pressed firmly on Hawu Le's calf. Due to the huge impact, the entire calf bone was broken.
It was bent, with blood flowing across it. In the middle of the calf, Xu An could even see the white bones of Hawu Le.
Obviously, Hawuler's injury was more serious than Qin Chuan!
Zhou Zhe's expression on the side was also full of surprise. They just ran forward, and no one noticed the boulder coming from behind, let alone reminded Xu An to avoid it.
"Are you okay?" Hawuler's face turned red from the pain. He took in a breath of cold air and looked behind him, as if lamenting: "They are catching up."
As the screams got closer and closer, they faintly saw the adult figure again in the corridor, but its movements were much slower than before.
It seems that the bomb still has some effect on the monster, but it is not fatal.
Behind it, countless larvae followed closely. They squatted half-crouched, with big mouths and fangs exposed. They looked at them as if they were looking at their own lunch.
Xu An was speechless. Her throat seemed to be blocked by something. She looked at Hawu Le and could only shake her head mechanically to indicate that she was fine.
The entire corridor fell into a dead silence.
Zhou Zhe was the first to break the silence, "Where are your companions? Comrade, please find a way to ask them to come in to help. Let's go out together..."
Hawuler endured the pain and showed a smile that was even uglier than crying. "They left, but I want to stay..." He did not finish his words, but everyone present
Everyone understood what he meant.
Xu An put away the long knife in his hand, walked to Hawu Le without saying a word, squatted down, and said to him: "I will carry you out!"
Hawu Le smiled and pushed Xu An's shoulder, "How can you, a woman, carry me?"
"Come up! I can't carry it!" Xu An felt inexplicably stubborn.
She didn't know what kind of mentality Hawu Le had in returning back, but it was true that he saved her life.
Seeing Xu An's persistence, Hawuler stopped joking and said, "Xu An, my leg was pressed by a boulder and I can't get up."
"Zhou Zhe! What are you doing standing still! Come over here and help move the rocks!" Xu An yelled at Zhou Zhe who was standing aside.
She admitted that at this moment, she was expressing her anger.
Zhou Zhe was stunned for a moment, and with the permission from Qin Chuan's eyes, he put him on the ground and walked towards the boulder.
Although everyone present knew in their hearts that they could not move the stone that was half a man high by relying on human power.
The moment Zhou Zhe took action, Hawu Le spoke out, "Xu An, didn't you see that the monster has caught up with him?"
Xu An buried his head, put his fingers into the gaps between the boulders and the gravel, and tried with all his strength to move the boulder that was pressing on Hawu Le.
She didn't want to pay attention to the monster in front of her, nor did she want to pay attention to Hawu Le's eyes that seemed to accept his fate.
She didn't want to pay attention to anything. She was silent, as if there was only this huge rock in front of her in the whole world.
How can we move this stone away? Xu An thought over and over again in her mind, she seemed to be crazy, her palms had been scratched and bloody.
The sharp rocks pierced into her flesh and blood, but they were far less painful than her heart.
After trying again and again and failing, Xu An went crazy, kicking the boulder in front of him with his feet.
Only now did she realize how insignificant humans were in the eyes of these monsters.
Maybe they can kill a person with just a boulder.
"Why? Why come back?"
"Why do you want to save us? Don't you know everything?"
"You are the abandoned people, and we are despicable people enjoying the resources of survival..."
"You should hate us! Like Ana, hate me! You wish I would die!"
"Why did you come back! Why did you save me!"
"Are you a fool! Why do you have to do this!"
"..."
Xu An seemed to finally be able to bear it no longer. She yelled at Hawu Le, as if she was venting her dissatisfaction or questioning him.
Facing Xu An's cries, Hawu Le held on with his last strength, "Xu An, I don't hate you," he turned to look at Qin Chuan and the others, "I don't hate you either."
"I believe that there must be a reason for the country's choice. Xu An, I am a soldier. I should stand by your side when in danger. I don't regret saving you."
Xu An thought in his heart, only a fool like you would think like this!
There can still be covetousness, distrust, and scheming between people.
How can there be someone who always firmly believes in the country?
For the sake of his own beliefs, even if the bloody truth is spread out in front of his eyes, how can Hawule still say that he believes in the country's words?
It was obviously the country he trusted that betrayed him first!
Seeing the approaching monsters, Hawuler's eyes looked at the corridor ahead, inexplicably revealing that he regarded death as if he had returned.
"I don't know what you are doing here, but I hope that everything you do is for the future survival of mankind."
Qin Chuan heard that it was Hawu Le who was saying this to him.
Xu An also regained his composure at this moment, and everyone present remained silent. They did not make a sound, and listened quietly to Hawul's words in the darkness.
This may be the first time in Hawuler's life that someone has listened to him so seriously.
Xu An felt that the time at this moment was very long, but in reality, it all happened in the blink of an eye.
Hawul seemed to muster up all his courage and finally made up his mind: "Report to the commander! This is Hawul, the deputy captain of the fifth team of the border defense force. I volunteer to stay and form a personal death squad to die with these monsters."
"Finally! May God bless my China and make it prosperous!"
After Hawuler said this, he handed Qin Chuan the soldier's certificate he had treasured for a long time. Under the background of the firelight, he knelt on the ground and gave Qin Chuan the last military salute in his life.
The next second, he held a burning torch and lit his body on fire.
Xu An didn't even have time to stop her. She could only look at Hawu Le's face illuminated by the fire.
