Hunter of the Forbidden Region Chapter 24: Go ashore
In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts with the villagers, half an hour later, the temporary camp began to move.
Wei Xingshan took out the map and asked Lin Shuo for advice:
"Mr. Lin, look, where should we camp better?"
Lin Shuo pointed to Jialinda on the map: "You better go back."
"Don't be kidding. This matter hasn't been written yet. How do you want us to go back?" Wei Xingshan said.
"Stay any longer, you will die." Lin Shuo said, "Have you heard about this morning?"
"I heard." Wei Xingshan nodded, and then said sternly, "Mr. Lin, I can see this along the way, you are a hard-hearted person. You take the life of our brother very seriously. But ah, we This time, I got the money and did the job. Please understand."
Lin Shuo looked up at Wei Xingshan, sighed inwardly, and clicked a hill on the map: "It's okay here."
This mountain is the place where Lin Shuo observed the Black Water Dragon King before. It is the highest spot with a 100-mile radius and a great view.
There are mountain springs on the mountain, and the Wuming River is two kilometers away, so there is no need to worry about the water source.
"Let's go here." Wei Xingshan grinned, "Actually, let me tell you the truth. The older brothers were a little uneasy because we didn't know what we were facing. But this morning, Dr. Yang After they came back from the river, they told us about the Black Water Dragon King, but we had a bottom. Isn’t it just a big snake. No matter how big it is, it’s also a snake. For us, animals are not big things. Terrible, the bigger the better!"
Lin Shuo shook his head: "Our goal this time is not the Black Water Dragon King."
"Huh?"
"For the specific reason, you can ask Miss Anne." Lin Shuo was too lazy to explain, and continued, "Our goal this time is better than Blackwater Dragon King. And as far as I know, the effect of bullets is very average." /
……
The relocation process of the camp is not complicated, because the rubber boat provided by China arrived the day before yesterday.
This time one hundred and eighty-two people are missing, and most of them are Chinese citizens. China's attitude is clear: you must see people when you live, and you must see corpses when you die.
At the same time, the Outer Hinggan Mountains are close to the national border and the geographical position is sensitive. The Russian military is inconvenient to move. It can only entrust a third party, the International Society for Biological Research, to handle the matter. In addition to the settlement of expenses, Russia also provides equipment assistance.
However, Waixinganling is too far from the central area of Russia, and transportation is extremely inconvenient. Until the International Society for Biological Research has sent personnel into the incident site, most of the equipment list is still missing.
After understanding the progress of the incident, the Chinese side proposed that in addition to weapons, other equipment and materials should be provided by China.
Russia just agreed to this plan the day before yesterday morning. By the night before yesterday, five Chinese rubber dinghies were in place, docked at Jarinda’s wharf, loaded with various materials.
These changes are not known to Lin Shuo and his party who are already in the mountains. Wei Xingshan received a notice before dawn yesterday, and hurriedly sent a small team to Jialinda and drove the five rubber boats back.
When the rubber boat arrived in the nearby waters, Lin Shuo and the others were being fooled by the Dragon King's messenger.
After that, Wei Xingshan and the others set up a temporary camp in one day. They only slept for one night before being surrounded by villagers with shotguns.
There is no way, the matter is over, I can only move.
Fortunately, the two camps, both old and new, are close to the water's edge, and the waterway is connected. These five rubber boats help with transportation, which saves a lot of things.
Before dark on this day, the new camp began to take shape.
The wind on the top of the mountain is too strong, and the location of the new campsite is still halfway up the mountain, just by a stream, surrounded by mountains and rivers.
Although the lighting equipment is already available, everyone still habitually starts a bonfire when it gets dark.
Except for a few night guards, most people sit around the campfire.
Sufficient material protection has brought high morale. Everyone ate the rice cooked in an iron pan while roasting the fire, not to mention that they were so happy.
The five people, Lin Shuo, Anne, He Zihong, Wei Xingshan, and Liu Qing, did not stay by the bonfire after dinner, but got into the tent and discussed the next thing.
Yang Tuo didn't participate. He broke his leg this morning. He was excited in the morning and didn't feel any pain. His complexion started in the afternoon and he was asleep after taking the medicine.
"Things are a bit difficult now." He Zihong took the lead in the tent and said, "We are here this time to solve the problem of strange creatures on the north bank of Heilongjiang, but now, according to Mr. Lin's inference, there are actually two strange creatures here. A black water dragon king, a hook snake. And the strange creature that caused the 182 missing people, the hook snake, we have no new clues."
"Continue to inquire about the situation with the villagers, I think it is impossible." Wei Xingshan scratched his head, "It's pretty good if I didn't fight today."
"Yes, without the support of the local people, this matter is difficult." He Zihong took a sentence, glanced at Lin Shuo, his lips moved but did not speak, and finally turned his eyes to Anne, "Miss Anne, you Any ideas?"
Anne raised her head and said, "What we see at the scene is the Black Water Dragon King. According to Mr. Lin's description, the hook snake is only bigger than the Black Water Dragon King. Such a big strange creature, Since I appear here, how come there are no witnesses? This makes me very confused."
"Right." Liu Qing's eyes lit up at this time and said, "This is not a scam, right?"
"This..." He Zihong muttered, "But how do you explain the scales of the hook snake and the smell of the hook snake that Mr. Lin smelled at the scene?"
"It may have been arranged artificially." Liu Qing said, and then looked at Mr. Lin, "Mr. Lin, is it possible for the smell you smell to be manipulated?"
Lin Shuo thought for a while and said, “The smell of the hooked snake on the scene is very weak, I can only vaguely feel it, so I don’t rule out the possibility of artificial arrangement. But the scales of the hooked snake, I carefully confirm Yes, the smell is very fresh, and it can’t be wrong after being away from the living body for less than a month. So I’m sure that the hook snake is still alive."
"But isn't it here?" Liu Qing asked rhetorically, and then seemed to figure out something, "Will someone borrow our hand to get rid of the Black Water Dragon King?"
"No." Anne shook her head, "If the hook snake is not here, the injury of the Blackwater Dragon King will be unexplainable."
"That's right." Lin Shuo nodded, "It's not for no reason that the Dragon King's messenger revealed this information to me. This Black Water Dragon King, whose breath is full of blood, obviously suffered serious internal injuries. Except for that. A hook snake that is about the same size as it, I can’t think of other possibilities."
Everyone fell silent for a while.
"That's right." He Zihong seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Mr. Lin, according to your understanding, is the hook snake capable of causing one hundred and eighty-two people to disappear at the same time?"
Lin Shuo shook his head, hesitated, and said, "I can't be sure."
In fact, what Lin Shuo wanted to say was "can't," but he thought of the thunderstorm night six years ago and added two words after "can't".
The ability of the hook snake, "Kyushu Foreign Objects Loaded" has long been written clearly: the flesh is powerful, unparalleled in the world.
But six years ago, it showed another brand new ability. This ability is so strange and unbelievable.
Lin Shuo had already thought of a way to deal with the hook snake, but he didn't want to explain to others, so he could only say that.
"Oh, there are many doubts." He Zihong said with emotion.
"Why don't you kill the Black Water Dragon King first." Wei Xingshan said, "Sooner or later such a big guy will be a scourge."
"No." He Zihong shook his head, "The strange creatures in this world are good or bad, and they must be treated differently. Our International Biological Research Association never kills innocent people indiscriminately."
"Moreover, it is not easy to kill it." Anne said, "Let's not talk about its strength, how do we find it now?"
"As long as it does not go ashore, no one will find it." Lin Shuo shook his head, "The same goes for hook snakes."
"Then what shall we do now?" Wei Xingshan asked.
"Wait and see." Lin Shuo said lightly.
……
In the dead of night, Lin Shuo was sitting in his tent.
The tent he was in was on the westernmost side of the camp, which was also the place closest to the Wuming River in the camp.
Lin Shuo has now made it clear that both the Black Water Dragon King and the Hooked Snake rely on the rivers here for activities.
So, if there is an accident at night, the source must be in the water.
Being here by yourself is the best way to deal with it.
Xiao Ba is not here tonight. The bird said it was to inquire about intelligence. It is estimated that only it knows whether it is true or not.
I don't know what happened. Lin Shuo felt a little tired tonight, and his head was a little groggy when sitting.
In the dimness, he saw a woman's face.
This woman's face~IndoMTL.com~ looks strange and familiar, young and old.
This face is engraved in the deepest part of Lin Shuo's memory. After he was born, he opened his eyes for the first time and saw this face.
He couldn't call her name, but he knew who she was.
She looked at Lin Shuo affectionately, with tears in her eyes.
"Mom..." Lin Shuo whispered and woke up, realizing that he had already burst into tears.
Lin Shuo wiped tears with his cuffs, before he had time to recall the face in his dream, there was a sudden warning in his heart!
The chase beside him, the giant recurve bow, the bowstring is constantly trembling, making a "buzzing" warning sound.
Then, a familiar smell entered Lin Shuo's nose.
Snake hook!
Lin Shuo's whole body was erected, he picked up the chase as fast as possible, and drew an arrow from the quiver, and rushed out of the tent in three or two steps!
The bonfire has long gone out, and the moon has gone down the mountain. Right now, it is the darkest hour before dawn, and you can't see your fingers outside.
The camp behind Lin Shuo is still silent, but the night before him is thick as iron.
Just two kilometers ahead, on the bank of the unnamed river, the trees on the riverside began to fall.
The loud noise of falling trees keeps coming, getting closer and closer to the camp!
That hook snake actually went ashore!
