1733 The Broken Compass
When they heard this command, they all stood still, watching around vigilantly.
After Lin Yu rushed out, Jiaomu Jiao took out the dagger he was carrying, and quickly followed, ready to shoot at any time.
"Don't be nervous, it's a person, it's dead!"
After Lin Yu swept to the side of this figure, he found that it was a person lying on the ground, he immediately leaned over the neck of this figure and tried it, and found that there was no longer the slightest life.
Hearing this, Jiaomu Jiao was stunned, and glanced around vigilantly, seeing that there was nothing unusual in the surrounding woods, so he waved at Bairen Tu and Tan Kai in the distance.
Seeing this, Bairen Tu and Tan Kai and others hurriedly walked up.
At this time, Lin Yu was already squatting beside the corpse, wiping the snow on the corpse with his cuffs, revealing the original appearance of the corpse.
I saw that the corpse was an old man, his face was blue and gray, the corners of his eyes and forehead were all around, his temples were white, he was wearing a heavy winter coat and an army-green Lei Feng hat, a typical Northeast old man's dress.
"Who is this person, how could he die here?!"
Ji Xun frowned and asked curiously.
"Rummag through his papers!"
Tan Kai said and rummaged through the corpse, when his hand reached into the corpse's arms, he seemed to have touched a piece of paper, he quickly touched the piece of paper, only to see some information written on the piece of paper, which contained the words "so-and-so forest ranger station".
Tan Kai's expression changed suddenly, and he said urgently, "Forest ranger?!He is an old forest ranger?!"
"It seems to be!"
Ji Xun's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have suddenly discovered something, so he hurriedly rushed to him and picked up the snow next to the corpse's shoulder, only to see that the corpse's left arm was wearing the words "Forest Ranger" on his clothes.
"Could it be that this is the old forest ranger who was robbed by Ling Xiao?!"
Bairen Tu couldn't help but look upbeat at this time, looked up at the front of him, and said in a deep voice, "That means that our direction is not wrong!"
"It seems that these superficial footprints on the ground are left by them!"
Baili looked at the shallow footprints on the ground covered by thin snow, and whispered, with a hint of excitement in his voice.
He knew that now he was getting closer and closer to Ling Xiao, and he was getting closer and closer to revenge!
"It's only been more than two hours since the old ranger died, and he died from a blow to the back of the head!"
Lin Yu carefully examined the corpses on the ground, then looked up at the outside of the woods, and said coldly, "In this environment, Ling Xiao and the others can't move forward fast, which means that the distance between them and us won't be too big!"
"This old ranger has been dead for more than two hours?!"
Bairen Tu frowned, turned his head and said coldly to the stubble man with a suspicious face, "You lied to us? When you were in the town just now, you clearly said that Ling Xiao and they left at least three or four hours ahead of us!"
The stubble man's body trembled when he heard this, and he said urgently, "I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie, I told the truth, they were indeed at least three hours faster!"
"Yes, I can testify to that!"
The black-faced man quickly nodded as well.
"Then how could this old man of the forest ranger only die for two hours?!"
Kang Jinlong frowned and wondered.
"Could it be, Senior Brother Ling Xiao let this forest ranger go, and this forest ranger will ...... again Something else ......"
The stubble man said in a trembling voice, and when he said this, he couldn't help but snort, and said with a pale face, "I still suggest...... Let's hurry back ......."
"Shut up!"
Baili glanced at the stubble man, and said coldly with a cold face, "If you dare to say the word 'go' again, I will cut your tongue!"
Knowing that Ling Xiao is in front, even if there is a blood demon giant beast in this wood, sword forest and sword rain, Baili will not retreat a bit!
"No matter what he has in here, I don't believe that he can go, we can't go!"
Bairen Tu also said in a cold voice.
"Keep going!"
Lin Yu looked up at the woods in the depths, and he was also determined to move forward.
"Ji Xun, look at the compass, confirm the next direction, and move on!"
Tan Kai got up and said in a deep voice to Ji Xun.
"Yes!"
Ji Xun hurriedly agreed, and touched the compass in his arms, wanting to confirm the next direction, but after seeing the dial of the compass, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said to Tan Kai, "Captain, the magnetic field in this forest doesn't seem to be right, and the compass can't tell the direction......
"What?!"
Tan Kai's expression changed, and he hurriedly grabbed the compass in Ji Xun's hand, and after a closer look, he saw that the hands on the dial kept trembling and moving, like a malfunctioning watch hand.
"Captain He, look!"
Tan Kai hurriedly handed the compass in his hand to Lin Yu, and said with a solemn expression, "Our compass is a special military compass, and it will never malfunction, this phenomenon occurs, it can only be said that there are indeed strange ...... in this forest."
