The weather in the forest shrouded by the cold wave is very good tonight. A huge bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the silver-white moonlight spreads over the entire forest.
White snow fell on the ground, accumulating in a thick layer.
The silver-white moonlight falling from the sky shines on the snow and immediately reflects the light, making many areas in the forest hazy, dreamlike, and very beautiful.
The pig-headed camp exudes dim light, and occasionally some noises can be heard.
Since the camp is located in a valley, the noise coming from the camp will echo in the valley and take a long time to dissipate.
If it were snowing, the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain would not send his men to stand guard at the entrance of the valley.
Today's weather is very good, so two pig-headed men were sent to the entrance of the valley to take charge of guard duty tonight.
"so cold!"
"yes!"
"Fortunately we have these thick cotton clothes to wear today, otherwise we wouldn't be able to withstand the cold."
"With another busy morning tomorrow, we can complete the task of collecting materials for making clothes and quilts."
"The task is completed, you can relax in the rest of the time."
"Do you have any ideas?"
"Not yet. What about you, do you have any ideas?"
"Neither do I. When I get back, I can have a good discussion with my brothers."
"Um."
The two pig-headed warriors on duty whispered to each other, occasionally raising their heads and looking into the distance, paying attention to whether there was any unusual movement.
In front of the entrance of the valley where the Pig Head Camp is located is a frozen lake.
A few days ago, everyone discovered that there were cracks in this frozen lake. Through observation, it was found that the number of cracks gradually increased over time.
Therefore, everyone concluded that at some time in the future, the cracked lake surface will completely break apart, and some unknown creatures will run out of the lake.
For safety reasons, as cracks appear on the frozen lake surface, more manpower is deployed to monitor the situation around the lake, which has become a key task at present.
"Click."
In the dead of night, a series of subtle movements will appear on the frozen lake surface covered with cracks. If you listen carefully, you will find that these movements are all caused by the ice surface breaking apart.
Although the weather is very good tonight, the silver-white moonlight cast by the bright moon hanging high in the sky allows most areas to see clearly with the naked eye without using lighting equipment.
But no matter how you can see clearly with the naked eye, after all, night is night and day is day, and it is easier to see things clearly during the day than at night.
For example, if someone stands on the shore of a frozen lake and observes the lake, he will not be able to find some black shadows swimming under the lake.
If it were daytime, we would be able to detect these abnormalities.
Although the two pig-headed warriors standing guard in the distance were chatting, they did not slack off and forgot about their tasks. They looked at the lake from time to time. Unfortunately, due to the darkness of the night, they did not notice anything unusual in the lake.
In the camp, many sounds can be heard coming from the cabins.
Compared with the bustle of a small wooden house where several pig-headed warriors lived together, the small wooden house where two pig-headed captains lived seemed relatively quiet.
At this time, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was drinking tea in his friend's room.
"How does the tea taste today?" the handsome pig-headed logistics captain asked his friend with a smile.
"It's pretty good. Where did you find this fresh tea? It's freezing cold right now. If you look around, you can't see a single green plant around."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead put down the teacup in his hand and asked in confusion.
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain picked up the teapot, added some tea to his friend, and then explained, "I found this fresh tea around the location of the hot spring you discovered before."
Although the forest is now enveloped by a cold wave and covered with snow everywhere, there are still many plants growing vigorously around the hot springs due to the hot springs.
"I see, I didn't realize there was a tea tree there before." When the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard this, he suddenly realized.
"I also discovered it accidentally. Speaking of that hot spring, when I took people to the hot spring, in addition to tea trees, I also found some detoxifying herbs nearby." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics team leader said.
"You should have collected antidote herbs, right?" said the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"Yes, I have collected some and are keeping them in the warehouse now. When I have time later, I will make them into an antidote ointment." said the handsome pig-headed logistics captain.
The two pig-headed captains were chatting in the warm cabin. As the tasks at hand were completed one by one, their mentality gradually began to relax.
"By the way, there has been no news about the special operations team sent by the superiors for so long. Do you know what is going on?" asked the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"I still don't know. In the evening, the logistics captain contacted me. I asked him about it again. He also shook his head and had no clue..." said the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain.
"It's been so long, no matter how much we delay on the road, we won't have entered the forest yet.
Do you think something happened to that special operations team on the road, so there is no news about it yet?" said the pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"Who dares to attack that special forces team at the risk of their lives?" said the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain. He didn't think anything bad would happen to the approaching special forces team.
"Blue Star people! If they encounter that special operations team, they will definitely kill them." Upon hearing this, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said immediately. He didn't need to think too much at all.
I thought of this possibility.
Because I have personally experienced the tragic battle with the Blue Star people, whenever I hear about anyone who dares to attack the pig-headed people, my first reaction will be to think of the Blue Star people.
"Uh..." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain was immediately speechless, then looked helplessly at his friend and said.
"The Blue Star people indeed dared to attack that special operations team, but that special operations team is on their way here now! How could they encounter the Blue Star people?"
"That's true." The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, and then stopped talking about the special operations team.
Afterwards, the two of them drank tea and chatted about some gossip they had heard.
It was already very late before he knew it. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood up, said goodbye to his friends, and returned to his cabin.
When the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain was the only one left in the room, as usual, he opened a very simple wooden cabinet in the room and took out a paper notebook.
"It's indeed quite late. I'll record today's events and go to bed to rest." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain said.
Then, he opened his notebook and recorded in detail what happened in the camp today so that his superiors could have something to base on if they wanted to know what the logistics team was doing in the forest.
Gusts of cold wind blew in the valley, and the snow falling on the branches was shaken by the trees and fell to the ground, making a puffing sound.
The pig-headed camp was dimly lit, and as the night passed, the lights in the cabins were turned off one after another.
At least a thousand kilometers away from the forest shrouded by the cold wave, there was a small team of Blue Stars.
After the five investigators came out of the forest, they happened to encounter a pig-headed special forces team heading to the forest. After killing them, they continued to move towards their destination according to their original plan.
As the team got closer to their destination, they saw more and more pig-headed tribes. In order not to attract attention, the five investigators chose to walk on foot instead of flying in the sky.
"Crackling..."
The bonfire made a sound from time to time, and the swaying firelight caused the five shadows on the ground to sway.
After dinner, the five investigators on the mission chatted for a while. One person was on guard, and the other four lay down on the haystacks and rested with their eyes closed.
Suddenly, the investigator as the captain opened his eyes, and the other four investigators also looked at him.
In everyone's perception, it can be clearly detected that there is an object in the captain's pocket that is constantly emitting psychic energy fluctuations.
The captain sat up and reached into his pocket to take out an object that emitted psychic energy fluctuations. It was a spherical communication device, only the size of a pigeon egg. It was very small and the whole was pitch black.
"It's a contact request from the base camp." The captain said, and then activated the communication contact.
After the jet-black, pigeon-egg-sized communication device was activated, it glowed with dazzling light, which lasted for less than a second. Then it flew into the air, and a sound came from the communication device.
There is no picture, just voice contact.
"Have you rested?" The voice coming from the communication device was a female voice, and the contact person of these five investigators was a girl.
"I'm about to take a rest! What's wrong?" The captain, who was in charge of this mission, asked.
"It's like this. Today, two waves of pig-headed people took the initiative to come to us and proposed to us..." The contact person carefully described the peace talks and cooperative visits proposed by the two waves of pig-headed people.
"???" The five investigators who came out of the forest to perform the mission were all stunned after hearing what the contact person said, with question marks on their faces.
"This is what happened. Now we have sent the news back to Blue Star. The final decision will be made within a week..." the contact person said.
"Then what should we do now? Do we still want to continue to perform that mission?" the captain said.
If they negotiate peace with the Pig-Head Lord, it will be difficult for their mission team to continue causing trouble on the Pig-Head Lord's territory.
And if they cooperate with the rebellious pig-headed people, their team can continue to carry out the mission, and causing trouble on the pig-headed lord's territory can be said to have quite an effect.
"The order given by above is this. Before making a choice, you can choose to stay where you are for the time being.
Or you can continue heading towards your destination, but one thing you need to pay attention to is that if you encounter a pig-headed man on the way, don't fight." said the contact person.
The five investigators on the mission looked at each other, and then the captain said to the contact person, "Okay, we get it."
"Okay, that's it, please pay attention to your safety..." After the contact person finished speaking, he hung up the communication device.
The jet-black, pigeon-egg-sized communication device suspended in mid-air returned to the captain's hand. He put away the communication device, and then said to his companions.
"You all heard what the contact person said just now. If you have any ideas, you can tell me."
"In one day, two groups of pig-headed men came to visit me. It's quite amazing."
"It's okay. We cleared out the pig-headed supply points in the forest before. During the day, three or four waves of pig-headed men came to surrender."
"This is not a good analogy. Those pig-headed men who surrendered to us were just soldiers. This time, the pig-headed men who took the initiative to come to us are of extraordinary status."
The investigators discussed it a lot, but there was nothing to say about the final result. After all, these matters were decided by senior officials.
Now they can just act according to the orders and don't need to spend too many brain cells on this kind of problem.
…………
Blue Star, a lively and bustling shopping mall, where the movie theater is located, has many people pouring out.
After a movie ended, the audience in this screening room lined up in an orderly manner and walked out of the cinema.
Zhou Yue held a rose in her left hand that Lin Fei had given her before, and held his arm in her right hand, chatting about the plot of the movie with a smile.
"The special effects in this movie are really good, and the director is really willing to spend money!"
“This director’s previous movie was a mess because of the low investment in special effects, and it was criticized by everyone.
This time he didn't dare to invest as much money in special effects as he did before." Lin Fei analyzed why the special effects of the movie he watched tonight were so good.
"Yeah, I forgot about it even if you didn't mention it..." Zhou Yue recalled it and found that it was indeed true.
Tonight's movie lasted for two and a half hours, which was quite long. It was already ten o'clock at night after watching the movie.
People who watched the movie in the cinema did not go home immediately after coming out, but went to a nearby barbecue place.
"Should we go home now, or should we make some skewers first and then go back?" Lin Fei looked at Zhou Yue beside him and asked.
"Let's make a skewer and go back!" Zhou Yue chose with a smile.
Afterwards, the two people crossed the road and headed to a nearby barbecue place.
