Chapter 118 Mountain Tracking
Old Bill's teenage granddaughter is Carol, and the name in another world means a bird that always sings cheerful songs.
However, the cheerful bird was crying loudly now. From her intermittent narrative, Tang En and the others learned that about two days ago, a group of bandits suddenly arrived and surrounded the village.
One hundred thousand mountains are originally a place of chaos, and there are so many bandits and robbers. Shahe Village has been visited by these people once or twice, but they usually only get some food and water and leave. They still don’t know how to kill chickens and eggs like slaughtering villages.
However, when the old village chief stood up and prepared to serve food, he was cut off his head with one knife, and then cruel burning, killing, looting began.
Because time was tight, little Carol's mother had only time to hide her in the cellar and told her not to speak. Then a big man with a ferocious face broke open the door and rushed in... There was a gap in the wooden board. Little Carol, who was tightly covering her mouth, watched her mother commit suicide, was constantly raped, and then killed with a knife...
The matter did not end there, and it was normal for the farm to have a cellar. The robbers seemed not satisfied with the harvest, so they began to search the cellars of every household. Naturally, many people were killed in hiding. After a robber searched the woodshed of Little Carol's house, he found the cellar under the wooden boards.
But what happened next was a bit unexpected. The robber stepped on it with a bad luck, and the trap originally prepared for mice and some earth-wielding animals. While he kept crying, little Carol bravely rushed out of the darkness and directly slashed at the robber with a sickle.
Originally, the trap was only a minor injury to the robber. Even if he was stabbed again, he would have the power to fight back. After all, Little Carol's strength was too small. But the robber might have been a villain for a long time, and now he has been retribution. Little Carol's knife happened to slash his neck... and then he cut all kinds of headless and stupid. When Little Carol came to his senses, the robber had been deformed! Then Little Carol closed the door of the cellar and stayed with the robber's body for two days, until Tang En and the others arrived...
At this time, David's search work had been completed. There was no living place in Shahe Village except Little Carol. All the remains of the villagers were concentrated on the edge of the small river at the east end of the village. A soil pit had been dug here.
After finally persuading the crying little Carol, the body of the ninth person was also put in and then buried in the soil.
Except for Little Carol's mother, no other villagers erected stone tablets. This is also impossible, but it is always better than being eaten by various scavengers when exposed.
After all these were settled, Tang En walked up to the dazed Carol: "Carol, do you have any relatives?"
"No more, I only have my mother and grandfather. Woo woo..." Little Carol lowered his head, and his red eyes were still tearing.
Tang En nodded and said in a harmonious voice, "Then will you follow Brother Tang En from now on?"
"I, wuwu, I don't know..." Little Carol's mind was blank at this time when he learned that both of his relatives were dead.
"That's it!" Tang En slapped the dust off Carol's head and said simply.
David also came over and squatted and said, "Sister Carol, my name is David. Your grandfather, Old Bill, once saved our lives, so don't worry, everyone here will take care of you. If anyone bullies you in the future, your brother David will definitely help you stand up!"
"..." Little Carol opened his blind eyes and nodded unconsciously with tears in his eyes.
"Oh..." David touched Carol's soft hair, stood up and sighed silently.
After a while, Mishe and his men returned to Shahe Village. After learning that Old Bill still had relatives in this world, he felt a little joy.
"Boss, I've found out! This group of people are passing robbers, with about a hundred people. They passed by here two days ago, and now they are heading south."
"Very good!" Tang En nodded. If you know the direction, you will not be afraid of not being able to chase the other party.
"Then boss, what are we going to do now?"
"It's very simple!" Tang En narrowed his narrow eyes, "Traced him, find him, and kill him!"
…………
Although Tang En's words were simple, it was still quite difficult to operate. After all, the other party had been away for two days, and no one knew whether there was any change in direction. So in the end, Tang En simply broke up in gray space, and the three of them formed a group, searching forward in a fan shape.
When the gray space was established, there were eleven people, one sacrificed and one seriously injured. Now, there are only twelve people in Tang En, David and Mithur here, and they can only be divided into four groups. At this time, Tang En also strongly felt that the gray space must be expanded. Otherwise, if you do everything yourself, what is the difference between this and not establishing this organization?
After the group was divided, the members of the gray space quickly rushed into the mountains. Tang En took Caro and the other two on the mountain road to support him. Of course, the target they are searching for is not the passing robbers, but the people sent by the bandits to send out the news among the mountains and ridges. If you want to ask who knows the terrain here best and what is happening, it is undoubtedly them.
Any place where there are poor mountains and bad waters, there will be bandits and bandits. This is almost a law. There is no need to mention the terrain here at the 100,000 mountains, so thieves, bandits, etc. can be said to be the specialty of this place.
The members of the gray space are still very efficient. After all, they have been following Tang En for so long and have learned a lot of various means.
Although he was talking about it, he wanted to be moral. But the knife was placed on his neck and betrayed others, so the caught bandits cooperated very well, and some of them were afraid of being silenced and said in detail. A few hours later, the news was summarized from all over the place to Tang En. From now on, the passing bandits had not changed their direction yet and were still heading south.
The bandits have a strong sense of territory. When they pass by, they sometimes need to say hello to show their politeness. So not long after, Tang En and the others knew that this group of people was called the Bobcat Thieves Group. The name of the leader is no longer verified. As for the nickname, it is called Bobcat. They are thin, ordinary in appearance, and are sinister and cunning. The most eye-catching sign is that they are a few beards on their lips, which is also the origin of his Bobcat nickname.
This group of people used to be a bandit business. They were in the southeast with a dangerous terrain and backed the mountain to make a living, but for some reason, they suddenly flew here. This is probably the reason why they slaughtered Shahe Village without any scruples. Anyway, it was not their own territory, so there was no need to consider killing chickens and getting eggs.
At night, Don Eun put Carol on his back, who was tired from crying, and continued to track forward.
It is even more difficult to obtain information at this time. At night, there are few people, and most of the bandits go back to work. Now only by touching the other village and arresting a person who keeps guarding can you get some information.
…………
The next day, in the morning, the clouds were dark and the wind was chilly.
On the rugged mountain road, a group of about a hundred people were curled up and moving forward in the cold wind. From the various weapons they were holding, we can tell that this was not a good person. Their outfits were also very diverse, some were wearing half-armors, while others were wearing thick cotton coats. The only similarity was that they all looked listless and slow.
Walking at the front of the team was a thin, middle-aged man with a gloomy and ordinary face, with only a few small beards on his lips, which were quite conspicuous. He was wearing neatly clumsy bronze armor.
"Boss, how long will we go? It will rain later. Look, brothers are not good." A strong man holding a steel knife leaned over and asked.
The thin man looked back and grinned and cursed: "Damn it, I'll be tired after walking for a while, so that your godmothers will be energetic!"
"Hehe." The big man touched his forehead and smiled, "These two are different... Tsk tsk, head, when will we find another village to enjoy? The addiction of the past two days has passed."
"Fuck. What else do you do except playing with women..." The thin man said angrily, then his expression was slowing down, "Wait, wait until you pass this mountain range. If you always do this, you will be chased by your colleagues."
"Oh!" The strong man immediately became depressed when he heard this and sighed, "It's better to have been the same. When he guards the intersection, a fat sheep came to him."
"Just talk nonsense. This is not a military war, just blocking the road and searching mountains." The thin man gritted his teeth, "Damn it, the passing years are not good. It's not good to fight in other places, but we have to be here."
He paused and then said, "Now he is on someone else's territory. Forcibly occupying land is a big taboo. You can continue to do so. After you find a place to settle down, I will definitely take my brothers to find another village to have fun!"
"Haha, it's so sir." The strong man was overjoyed when he heard this and replied repeatedly.
Crack-Room!!!
Uh... A hundred people only felt the bright light in front of them and looked up in shock. They saw that the originally gray clouds quickly turned black like ink dyed. Then, little raindrops fell down.
"Your mother, it's really raining!" The thin man slapped his palms hatefully, looking depressed.
"Head, the rain will not be too light, let's find a place to avoid it." The strong man wiped the rain on his face and said,
"It's light, where can I avoid it!" This is in the middle of the mountains, neither close to the village nor inclined canyon.
"Head, that's the forest." The strong man looked sharp, looked left and right, and pointed to the top of the tree that emerged beside the mountain road in the distance.
"Okay, please help me speed up!"
…………
This group of bandits who were eager to shelter from the rain didn't know that on the hill a few miles behind them, a group of about a dozen people were pointing here happily.
