Chapter 969
Without thinking, his body immediately crawled to the ground, his body pressed tightly against the ground, as if he wanted to get into the ground. His hands were tightly holding his head.
Zhang Feng's face at this moment could be said to be extremely ugly, completely pale.
For a moment, he figured out why Tom did what he did. Only by blowing up the tunnel and destroying the escape route in this way can we completely get rid of the pursuers behind us and prevent ourselves from being pursued according to the map.
If it were him, Zhang Feng would also make the same decision.
But now that this matter is on his head, Zhang Feng only has the urge to curse. The same would be true for other people, otherwise, what other ideas could there be? The high-explosive grenade was about to explode in front of him in this narrow tunnel. Could he be thinking about what he had eaten in the morning and whether he could pull it out at night
All that was said was actually Zhang Feng's fleeting thoughts.
Because after judging that the two consecutive sounds of falling to the ground were high-explosive grenades, his first reaction was to crawl on the ground, and even wanted to slap himself in the soil.
Of course, the latter is absolutely impossible. All Zhang Feng can do is to minimize the risk of injury to himself, that's all.
bong! bong!
Two consecutive explosions occurred less than a second apart.
Suddenly, gunpowder smoke spread in the narrow tunnel. The strong shock wave directly destroyed the tunnel. For Zhang Feng, who was less than 20 meters away from the explosion point, it felt like he had experienced an earthquake personally, and his location was not far from the center of the earthquake.
The ground shook violently, and along with gunpowder smoke, dust spread instantly.
The dust thrown out by the shock wave was mixed with large and small clods of soil, and it was extremely painful when it hit the body.
A few pieces happened to fall on Zhang Feng's back. You must know that there were deep wounds on his back, and he grimaced in pain.
A few more pieces fell on the arm holding his head. In an instant, he felt as if his arm had been broken directly and suffered an excruciating pain.
But he secretly thought that if he was lucky, if the stone did not fall on his arm, but fell on his head through the gap between the two arms, he would be kicked out. Or maybe what fell on the arm was not a clod of soil, but sharp shrapnel from a high-explosive grenade. I am afraid that the two arms must not be saved.
Of course, the possibility of the latter is relatively small, unless it is particularly unlucky.
When the grenade explodes, the shock wave surges upward, as does the shrapnel. Therefore, the damage range of shrapnel is an upward radius. This is why when throwing a grenade, after pulling off the steel pin, you have to hold it in your hand for a few seconds before throwing it out, so that the grenade can explode above the enemy's head, that is, in mid-air, so that the maximum killing radius can be achieved, and in Enemies within the radius have nowhere to hide. Even if they lie flat on the ground, it will have no effect.
A full half minute passed before the aftermath of the impact completely dissipated, but the tunnel was still filled with thick dust.
Zhang Feng slowly raised his head. Fortunately, the entire tunnel was pitch black now, otherwise he could be described as disgraced.
With the simple act of getting up from the ground, the dirt from his body fell down.
However, compared to the dust on his body and the severe pain of his injury, Zhang Feng was more uncomfortable with the fact that he had been tricked by Tom, or that he had been accidentally tricked by Tom. Because the latter Tom didn't know that Zhang Feng was following him, he just threw a grenade to blow up the tunnel according to the plan. Zhang Feng just happened to be unlucky.
Zhang Feng's expression was extremely ugly, because the tunnel that had been ravaged by such a high-explosive grenade still knew what it had become, but thinking about it, it was definitely not much better.
If the tunnel is completely blown up and there is no way to pass through it, then all his calculations will completely become a bubble and burst.
All the efforts put in by being undercover in the institute for such a long time were in vain.
The corners of his mouth twitched twice. This was something Zhang Feng would never allow.
However, he has no good solution now. He must determine the true situation before making a new decision.
Staring at the choking dust, he hunched over and moved step by step towards the location of the explosion.
The closer we get to the explosion point, the soles of our feet and what we can touch on our hands are all large and small pieces of broken soil.
This made Zhang Feng's heart become even colder.
Could it be that the tunnel was really completely blown up? Damn Tom.
After groping forward for another four to five meters, Zhang Feng finally found that the tunnel was blocked.
His eyelids twitched twice. There was really no way to pass. He could only go back the way he came.
Zhang Feng was a little unwilling to give up, and kept groping with his hands to block the tunnel.
The power of high-explosive grenades is self-evident. The strong explosion collapsed the tunnel, and the broken soil completely sealed the tunnel passage.
Zhang Feng's brows furrowed together.
"No, there's something wrong." Just when he was facing a dead end, Zhang Feng suddenly felt as if he had overlooked some problem.
His brows were knitted together, and he felt as if he had grasped the key point, but he couldn't remember it.
His hands were inserted into his hair, and he was holding on to the short hair. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of it.
The frown on his face relaxed, and the corners of his pursed lips turned into a smile again.
Tom was smart enough and decisive enough to use a high-explosive grenade to blow up the passage and cut off his own escape, completely blocking the possibility of others pursuing him.
But smart people make smart mistakes!
Zhang Feng recalled that he was chasing Tom from behind and saw a bright light that suddenly disappeared.
Flashlight? ! So what kind of flashlight would Tom most likely use in such an institute? In other words, what is the most convenient flashlight for him to use
It must be a strong military flashlight!
Military high-light flashlights are brighter, but the beam is also more concentrated, and the light will not shine very far and the light will not be spread.
If that's the case, why did I see light at that time
Tom turned a corner!
Only turning can explain clearly why the light flashed by and suddenly disappeared.
And why is it a mistake that only smart people like Tom make
When a normal person builds a tunnel, it must be as labor-saving and practical as possible. Anyway, it is used for escaping and for exhibition.
And only a smart person like Tom would build a corner to make it safer when throwing a grenade to blow it up!
You must know that as long as you walk out about 20 meters away, throw two high-explosive grenades, and then crawl on the ground, basically unless you are extremely unlucky, you will definitely not be affected by the explosion!
But Tom was unwilling to take even such an almost impossible risk, so he built the corner in pursuit of perfection!
