The afterglow of the setting sun wrapped around his white clothes and floated like clouds. I could tell that he was not carrying any weapons, but there were at least forty people hiding in the jungle behind him, and there were a dozen black holes with the muzzles of sniper rifles.
Peeking out from among the dead trees and grass.
The people in the village were defenseless, and the wooden buildings were not bulletproof at all. Even if the battle started and everyone hid in the nearby building, they would be shot and killed by blind snipers.
"Excellent." I remained on high alert.
The sniper's position is about sixty steps away from the village gate. He Jishang and I are like the two most eye-catching moving targets. There are no bunkers nearby. Once the opponent fires, he will be killed or injured immediately. Obviously, we will be killed immediately.
Once you leave the wooden building, you will be included in the opponent's sniper scope, and the entrance to the village is the best place to snipe in a dilemma.
"Our boss wants to discuss a business deal with Mr. Feng, so I have been specially sent to inform you. We are all people who have been in the world for a long time. You know very well what the real environment is like. Once you enter the jungle, it is the world of the caravan, life or death.
Our boss has the final say, right?"
His attitude is very arrogant, and the politeness he pretends to be on the surface cannot hide the pride that "the overall situation is under control."
"Yes, please speak." I have no other choice. I don't want to harm all the innocent people behind me, no matter men, women, old or young. To make a career in the world, you must not only have the passion to fight, but also the tolerance to endure.
"The sniper scope will be affected by sunset light. We only need to move fifteen steps due south. The glare will cause the sniper to enter a state of temporary visual blindness. Ten seconds is enough to close in and kill the enemy."
He Jishang smiled and said these murderous words. Everyone knew that under the high-power sniper scope, no expression on our faces could escape the sniper's observation.
"You are wrong. There are snipers lurking at an angle of 30 degrees to the south, 30 steps away on the top of the tree, and 50 steps due east, behind the tree. The strength of the caravan is not as scattered and decadent as the outside world says.
, Otherwise, I would have been swallowed up by the forces outside the mountain long ago, and can I still support myself today?" I did not avoid my lip movements. The other party could use lip language and naturally "understood" what I said.
This is a standard pocket formation. No matter how we move our bodies, we will always be at the approximate straight-line aiming point of the three-dimensional sniper. In a tenth of a second or even less, bullets will roar close to us.
He Jishang adjusted the telescope to observe these two directions and sighed sadly: "You are right."
I will not be mystical. Every time I face a crisis, I will realistically compare the strengths of both sides and find the wisest way of action. For example, now, I can only passively accept the other party's conditions and have no choice.
"Mr. Feng is really smart, hahaha..." The young man laughed, raised his right hand and stroked his bald head vigorously. The silver onyx ring on his thumb glowed as red as blood.
"Rouge?" I called out his name.
"Yes, I am Yanzhi." His expression became more and more proud and excited.
According to the authoritative diagnosis of international criminal psychologists, if a man with a normal appearance deliberately names a woman or uses accessories with obvious feminine characteristics, it means that he has more than 50% female tendencies in his heart. If such a man happens to become a gangster, he will
Those who happen to be able to freely exercise their power will become super killers who are ten times more powerful, perverted, and ruthless than normal gangsters. They cannot be measured by common sense, nor can they be bound by the so-called "morality of the world, and the rules of the underworld." To deal with such a person
, either avoid it from a distance, or kill it with one strike to avoid future troubles.
There is no doubt that Rouge is such a super murderer.
"The boss said that he has 90% of the treasures in the mountains, and people outside the mountains can only take away 10%. If you agree with this, everyone will be in peace. If you look for your treasures, I will take my share. If you don't agree, you will die immediately.
, don’t delay everyone’s reincarnation as ghosts or reincarnations as gods, do you understand?”
Rouge was smiling all the time, with a fair and delicate complexion, curved thin eyebrows, and watery eyes. She looked like an actor who was very good at taking care of herself.
I immediately agreed: "No problem, it's a deal." In fact, everyone should understand that talking about cooperation sharing with caravans is more difficult than asking for skin from a tiger. The final result, let alone 10%, is unknown whether you can leave the mountain alive.
.
"Mr. Feng is such a pleasant person, let's have a chance to chat later -" Yanzhi retreated slowly and hid in the jungle. The snipers also retreated in an orderly manner. At first glance, it was clear that they were veterans who had experienced many battles.
He Jishang sighed depressedly: "I was forced to come to the door of my house."
She is an expert in using poison, but she is not very proficient in attack and killing formations. If you want to establish a permanent foothold here, how can you do it with an isolated village? Modern sniper weapons can fire without miss within 500 meters to one kilometer. There are many
At that time, before even seeing the shadow of the enemy, one of his own was shot and fell.
The people from the Southwest Caravan just didn't want to touch her. Once the attack started, the existing disciples of the Five Poison Sect had no ability to defend themselves against it.
I have been wondering whether Su Lun's disappearance might have something to do with the caravan? The reason why I think so is that I am not just a headless chicken seeking medical treatment randomly, but I am rationally considering all factors and not letting them go.
Any suspicious clue.
In the eyes of the caravan, Su Lun is an expedition team earlier than ours, and of course they will use the rule of "draw nine and leave one" to deal with her. "Will it? No?" This multiple-choice question repeated in my mind.
I was tumbling inside, and out of the corner of my eye I suddenly caught a glimpse of a thin, dark shadow dodging on the corner of the wooden building on the right.
"Who?" He Jishang was the first to ask.
The man turned around timidly and smiled at us: "Mr. Feng, it's me, Bakun. I don't know if you're interested in a little thing. It's about donkeys... Miss Suellen and Mr. Schiller have ridden them."
's donkey."
A pair of small yellow-brown eyes were embedded in Bakun's thin face, and a greedy light flashed from time to time.
I suddenly realized that I had been ignoring the two donkeys, whether it was the donkey in the concubine hall that Schiller once rode, or the donkey that He Jishang took in in the village. Maybe the changes that followed made my brain a little confused.
Because of this, I only saw the donkeys alive with no scars on their bodies, so I thought there were no valuable clues on them - "Let's talk about it later, we still have something to do." He Jishang rejected Ba Kun for me, and he was close to where the image appeared.
The time was getting closer and closer, and that was what she cared about most.
Ba Kun nodded repeatedly and stepped back obediently.
What can he find? What can the dumb donkey tell him? The unhappiness caused by Rouge was immediately diluted by Bakun's mysterious performance. As hunters in the jungle, they can often discover a lot from corners that others don't pay attention to.
Something. What did he find this time?
He Jishang had already changed to another watch and kept looking down, counting the time minute by minute.
I sat cross-legged on the grass, thinking a lot, and my thoughts were divided into four or five places, especially what He Jishang said about the actual situation of going deep into Langu. If all unknown places are under the mountain, then all Su Lun's previous actions
Wouldn’t all the preparation work be in vain?
The top priority is to mobilize people and horses, rush outside the tunnel she mentioned, and conduct the most accurate on-site survey. Do not believe any hearsay.
What brothers Jiang Guang and Jiang Liang said has been completely overturned. They should have been deceived by Kong Kong Xiaosheng - a famous tomb robber rarely tells the truth. This is the need for survival competition. So, Kong Kong Xiaosheng must
Have you ever entered Afang Palace? As long as someone has been there, I have the confidence to follow the same path.
"Feng, it's been more than a minute, why haven't those images appeared yet?" He Jishang was a little uneasy.
Indeed, the window on the second floor was quiet, and I could clearly see the bloody mess on the ground that had not been cleaned up in time. Yesterday's strong magnetic field did not appear again, and the watch she was wearing had been working smoothly and easily.
After another five minutes, He Jishang sighed sadly: "It seems that Brother Tian will not appear again. Can you tell me why?"
I shook my head silently. More than 80% of the mysterious phenomena in nature cannot be explained by human applied physics. He Jishang slapped a dead tree in anger, and the dead leaves on the tree were full of rust.
The land is gone.
"Do you think Brother Tian went to the depths of the tunnel, to the legendary ladder to heaven, or to the underground tombs?" Her mood became extremely irritable, her thinking ability dropped sharply, and she just kept asking random questions.
"Philosophers say that to know the taste of pears, you have to taste them yourself. Miss He, if you want to unravel the confusion in your mind, come with us on the road tomorrow. Maybe I can happen to crack those stone pillars blocking the road. Everyone
If we cooperate sincerely, we will definitely be able to follow the footsteps of our predecessors and find what we want, how about it?" The goal we want to pursue should lead to the same destination by different routes. If the elder brother has left any clues, they must be at the end of Langu.
He Jishang suddenly raised his head alertly: "I know what you are thinking. You want to use the 'Blue Blood Luminous Toad' to avoid the intrusion of flying snakes——"
At this moment, she was like a frightened beast, with a strong murderous intent suddenly appearing on her face. For the sake of the "Blue Blood Luminous Toad", she was disfigured and kicked out of the door, living in the rivers and lakes. Of course, she would regard that baby as her life.
I smiled, stood up and walked towards the village gate. In this matter, the best explanation is to leave no explanation and let the facts speak for themselves. Before I met He Jishang, my goal was to go to the Ladder of Heaven through Langu, but I didn’t do anything about it.
Taking the "Blue Blood Luminous Toad" into consideration. If she doesn't want to join, I will never force her, let alone covet other people's treasures.
"Hey, don't go!" He Jishang jumped up, flew over my head, and blocked me in front.
I looked at her face calmly: "Miss He, you may have misunderstood. We are leaving tomorrow morning, so I have bothered you here for two days. Thank you very much."
She was still looking at me with great suspicion, so I walked around her and walked into the village gate.
"Mr. Feng, I'm here, I'm here." Bakun hunched over and ran over.
I couldn't figure out the secret of the donkey for the time being. Looking at his greedy and pitiful look, I asked directly: "What are you going to tell me? How much is it worth?"
The ancients said that time is money and efficiency is life. In order to quickly obtain useful information, my most commonly used method has always been to use money to open the way, which is often effective.
"Five...five hundred yuan, RMB." Bakun straightened up excitedly.
I nodded and whispered to him: "Go ahead."
He immediately cleared his throat and continued a little nervously: "After Mr. Schiller appeared, everyone was busy calling for help. It was me who held the donkey and tied it. I found that the paws on its feet were gone. Enter.
Before the mountain, according to Miss Su Lun's instructions, I removed the iron paws of all the requisitioned animals and replaced them with leather paws to facilitate walking on the mountain road. As a result, the leather paws of the other donkeys were all there, but this one was missing."
While we were talking, we walked towards the wooden building where the donkey was tied.
Everyone in the village was very calm and did not realize that the people from the Southwest Caravan had arrived at the village gate with eager eyes and left quietly. Everyone, including Feiying's team members, lacked this due awareness of alertness.
In such a fighting state, they would never be a match for the team led by Rouge.
A new idea suddenly popped up in my mind: "In Su Lun's exploration plan, in addition to Li Kang's group and the Flying Eagle team, will there be another group of ambushes?"
Su Lun is very careful in doing things and should know the fighting power of the Flying Eagle better than I do, so it is entirely possible to achieve the "cunning rabbit three holes". Behind the illusion of two lines of reinforcements, there will be a real main force. If it were me, I might do the same.
In this way, the old, weak and remnant troops are placed on the surface to deliberately paralyze the enemy. In fact, once an emergency occurs, the last team, which is also the most powerful team, will immediately appear to clear the obstacles.
"Mr. Feng, Mr. Feng, should I continue?" Bakun misunderstood my silence.
We have reached the eaves where the donkey is tied, and it is lying lazily on the ground, resting with its legs stretched out. Needless to say, I also saw that the leather paws on the donkey's feet were gone, leaving only bare skin.
soles of feet.
"Like this, if it can't walk ten miles on the mountain road, its feet will be worn out by stone slabs and thorns, and soon all four legs will be useless. Mr. Feng, the problem is not with me. All the leather palms and iron nails will be worn out."
They were carefully selected, and all the other donkeys’ feet are fine, except for these two.”
He scratched his scalp in confusion and smiled bitterly at me: "I don't know what this means. It's just that the leather palm that was nailed last time can travel at least five hundred kilometers without falling off. Why on earth?"
First of all, one thing can be ruled out. No one will deliberately try to get in trouble with the donkey's paw and use pliers to pull out the nail. What I think of is another thing. If the donkey has ever entered an extremely powerful magnetic field, the iron nail will
Will it not be sucked away? In the past, there was an example of a magnetic test conducted by physicists. The content was to put a wooden box covered with iron nails into the magnetic range. When the magnetic force increases infinitely, no matter how long it is,
The nails will be pulled out, eventually causing the wooden box to scatter into planks.
I think this is the only example that can explain the disappearance of Skin Palm. Unfortunately, with Ba Kun’s thinking ability, he cannot discuss this scientific issue with me. After taking the five banknotes I paid, he left happily, probably to
My brothers went to show off.
Li Kang had already moved his father's body away and buried it. He Jishang's men also cleaned up the killing scene as quickly as possible and lit a furnace of incense. When I climbed up to the second floor again, everything was restored to its original state.
Just looking at the superficial phenomena, no one can realize that three living people, Jiang Guang, Jiang Liang, and Li Zun'er, have disappeared from this world.
I really want to make a call to someone - now, I need someone to be by my side, listen to my analysis of various mysterious events, and then discuss and verify each one. Being unique is one of the most noble qualities of human beings, but at every level
In a predicament shrouded in mist, we need a partner whose wisdom is basically equal to ours, so that we can strengthen and correct each other and avoid detours. I don't want to and dare not waste time anymore. Su Lun's whereabouts are unknown. The sooner I find her, the less likely I will be.
Let her get hurt.
He Jishang is smart enough, and her martial arts and poison skills are strong enough, but her thoughts and considerations are too far away from mine, and she will subconsciously feel hostile when mentioning the "Blue Blood Luminous Toad". Therefore, it is impossible for her to be like Su.
Lun, Xiao Kereng is so connected to me.
There are many unfinished things in Hokkaido, so naturally Xiao Kereng can't leave. She still needs to support the overall situation there.
Subconsciously, I dialed a number and put the phone on the table in front of the window. The dialing icon on the screen kept flashing. After about ten seconds, the other party picked up the phone. It was a sweet and gentle person.
Female voice: "Wind?"
I was stunned for a moment. The number of this satellite phone was activated after arriving at the concubine's palace. She could not have known it in advance.
"I know it's you, Feng, are you okay?" You couldn't see the other person's expression, but you could tell from her voice that she was smiling.
I picked up the phone with an unexpected surprise: "Ms. Gu, how could you guess it was me?" Whenever the guqin is involved, I will think of her, and I am convinced that her attainments in the guqin are far better than those of her brother Gu.
Zhijin. But I never expected that she would call my name right away.
