Origin Chapter 578: Tease
Although he had guessed the approximate location of the sniper, Wu Zhongyuan was not worried, because at this time there was fire on all sides, thick smoke billowed, and the fire was soaring into the sky. A sniper inside the fire cannot aim and shoot at targets outside the fire.
Although Jiang Nan is sad, she is not the kind of woman who can only cry and cry. She looked at Wu Zhongyuan with red eyes, "Do you know who the assassin is and why did you assassinate the father?"
"It's hard for you to understand this matter. I'll say it carefully, you listen carefully." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Nan and Jiang Dahua turned to look at him, waiting for him to speak.
Wu Zhongyuan said, "I told you about my situation before, this assassin does not belong to this world, but comes from five thousand years later, whether it is male or female is still unclear, after five thousand years there will be many countries , the Central Plains belong to the East, and there are some foreigners far away in the West. They are very unfriendly to the Orientals. This assassin is from those foreigners in the West. The purpose of coming here is to steal the spirit stone of the weak water Longze. Shui Longze sank and disappeared not long ago, so this person took the next step, instead of assassinating and destroying."
Wu Zhongyuan paused for a while, seeing that the two did not interrupt to ask questions, and then continued, "Time is like a river, we are in the upper reaches of the river now, and the people at this time are people from five thousand years later. The ancestors of my ancestors, if you kill one person from here, many people may die in future generations, can you understand?"
Jiang Nan did not answer Wu Zhongyuan's question, but instead asked, "Father is old, it is impossible to have any more children, and we are still alive, what's the point of assassins killing him?"
Wu Zhongyuan thought for a while and explained, "As long as a person is alive, he will do a lot of things. His father-in-law is in a high position and he does big things. His passing will also have many influences on future generations."
Seeing that Jiang Nan didn't ask any more questions, Wu Zhongyuan said again, "The assassin knows my existence, and I am the assassin's primary target, but besides me, other people in high positions are also on the list of this person's assassination. This person It is a hidden weapon that is five thousand years old. It can hurt people's lives from three miles away. It is impossible to prevent it. , stepping on the brazier, always anxious, and anxious all day long."
Jiang Nan nodded.
Jiang Dahua asked from the side, "Sir, I don't know something."
"Huh?" Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at her.
Jiang Dahua said, "The prince is a dragon and a phoenix, so he became the target of assassins, but why did the assassins plot against those ordinary people?"
"This person shoots and kills one person every two hours to let me know that he is still here. As I said just now, his ultimate goal is me, and he wants to lure me over." Wu Zhongyuan said .
"The assassin is a man?" Jiang Dahua asked.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "Not necessarily, it could be a woman."
"Oh." Jiang Dahua nodded and didn't ask any more.
Jiang Nan took over from the side, "Are you sure this person is in the fire?"
"Not sure, but people from five thousand years later are not good at practicing Qi. This person has no spiritual Qi cultivation base. After the murder, it is impossible to escape quickly. It should still be within ten miles of this radius." Wu Zhongyuan said.
After nodding, Jiang Nan turned his eyes to the fire site. It was dry in winter, withered grass ignited shrubs, and shrubs ignited trees.
The fire broke out at the third watch, and halfway through the fourth watch, news came from the city that a night-time soldier was attacked in the city, and the cause of death was the same as that of the previous few people.
Hearing the report, the three of them frowned, calculating the time, and the last time the low-level warrior was assassinated was exactly another four hours.
The soldier who was attacked fell dead in the middle of Lianshan City. If the sniper was located outside the city, the bullet could not have shot that far.
It's over, it's over, the snipers are not outside the city, but in the city.
Hurry up and order to cut down trees and block the fire.
It's hard to be cruel next time, and there is a serious misjudgment, which is embarrassing. It's easy to set fire and put out a fire, and it's very embarrassing to put it out in a hurry.
Snipers are hiding in the city. This is both good news and bad news. The good news is that it is easy to search. The bad news is that the snipers have absolute initiative. No one knows their specific location. During the search process The snipers will kill whoever they want.
Wu Zhongyuan was not very clear about the real motive of the sniper, so he became more and more puzzled, what exactly did this person want to do? As long as this person lurks still and stops shooting and killing people, no one would think that he was hiding in the city, and even if the body was not seen after the wildfire, they would suspect that he had jumped out of the encirclement.
To shoot at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to revealing his whereabouts and telling everyone that he was hiding in the city?
At this time, the city gate was closed, and there was no rush to enter the city to search. The most urgent task was to put out the fire first, put out the fire in embarrassment, and put out the fire in embarrassment. As the Yellow Emperor, he set fire to the mountain with great fanfare. All without embarrassment.
At dawn, the mountain fire was extinguished, and the cattle warriors returned to the city and began to stop the search.
At this time, an even more embarrassing thing happened. Wu Zhongyuan didn't dare to enter the city. His opponent was using a high-precision sniper rifle.
At this time, a timid person will be looked down upon by everyone, but his life is at stake. Wu Zhongyuan really dared not dare to be brave. Although it was less than four hours at this time, the sniper did not shoot. Others, doesn't mean not to shoot him.
He has video files in modern times. The enemy will definitely recognize his appearance. He can be accurately identified through the scope. Not to mention entering the city, even if he leaves the woods and enters the open area, he will not dare.
As long as he does not enter the city, he is afraid of death. There is no room for explanation. This matter has seriously damaged his image.
No one can understand Wu Zhongyuan's depression and embarrassment at this time, and then recalling the various actions of the sniper before, it is obviously a cat play with a mouse, with a strong tease.
Sometimes you can be a hero, sometimes you can't, you can't go out and die no matter how embarrassed you are.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't go out by himself, and he didn't let Jiang Nan and Jiang Dahua go out. God knows where the snipers were hiding. When the two came out, the snipers didn't shoot, and it didn't mean they didn't shoot when they went back.
But holding back is not the solution. In desperation, Wu Zhongyuan had to order everyone to bring here several corpses that had been shot before. According to the bullet holes on the corpses and the posture before the attack, it was speculated that the sniper might be hiding. Location.
A total of three corpses were examined. The size of the holes left by the bullets entering and exiting was different. After some observation and scrutiny, Wu Zhongyuan frowned. Something was wrong. Two of the three corpses were taken by himself. One of the people who shot outside the city was shot from inside the city. Could it be that there is more than one sniper...
