Chapter 185: The Cao Family Borrowed
The Himalayas are the natural boundary mountains of the East Asian continent and the South Asian subcontinent, as well as the natural borders between China and India, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan and other countries.
From the Nanga Parbat Peak in Kashmir in the west to the Nanga Bhava Peak at the great bend of the Brahmaputra River in the east, it is 2,450 kilometers long and 200 to 350 kilometers wide.
The height of this mountain range is familiar to the world, and its geographical expanse can also match it.
Conquering such a mountain with your legs requires not only courage, but also the physical, technical and equipment to match.
And in such a mountainous area, chasing and killing a famous strange creature with two legs must be something that the most professional team can try.
After breakfast in the hotel, A
E arrived in the lobby of the hotel early and sat on the sofa in the lobby, waiting for the rest of the team to come down and gather.
It's not that other people have big shelves, but relatively speaking, A
E's gear is the easiest and quick to prepare.
Her equipment, the most important thing, is actually a pair of leather gloves and a pair of silk.
Tian silk is still entangled in A
E's hair is not visible to the eye.
Only in bright light, A
Occasionally, the hair will be shiny and reflective, and only then can some clues be seen.
The Su family's spirit alien silkworm has always been taken care of by Miao Guangqi.
In fact, the Su family's xenomorph silkworm was already on the verge of extinction twenty years ago.
It was Miao Guangqi who relied on first-hand gene cloning technology to continue this species, but at present, it is difficult to find a wild population and cannot improve the variety, so now A
The qualified silk in the hand of e has not been enough.
Every once in a while, Miao Guangqi will send the qualified and usable Tian Silk over, so now A
There is more silk in the hands of e than in the Outer Xing'an Mountains.
And the Su family hunters used xenomorph silk to "draw fast" or "big cut", but they didn't use gloves before.
Because no matter how good the gloves are, they can't prevent the cutting of xenomorphic silk, and once the technique is not skilled, it will be injured when it should be injured.
Wearing gloves will affect the feel.
A
The gloves on the e-hands, in fact, are the same, and have no actual protective effect.
It's just that when she first started practicing, Miao Guangqi asked her to wear a pair of gloves and personally accompany her.
And the time when this pair of gloves was cut was reserved for himself by Miao Guangqi to protect A
e reaction time.
The result is now A
e actually doesn't hurt himself by mistake anymore, but the feel of wearing gloves has been practiced, and I am not used to it without gloves.
Now looking at this pair of gloves on my hand in the hotel lobby, A
e will unconsciously think of this mentor of himself.
He was interested in A
e, like a strict father, but also like a patient mentor.
Able to grow up under his care, A
E has always considered it his great luck.
But now, the case of two strange creatures is next, A
There are more and more questions about this mentor in his mind.
When she got along with Lin Shuo, because her attention was on this man, she could still leave other things behind for the time being.
But when you are alone, such as in the lobby of this hotel now, this kind of terrible thought will come out unconsciously.
The experimental base that she was not allowed to enter, the people she was not allowed to see, and the things she still didn't know......
Suspicion and suspicion, in A
E's heart slowly grows, which makes her conscience tormented.
So now, even if she was only separated from Lin Shuo for less than twenty minutes, she missed him a little.
If this man was around, she wouldn't be cranky.
"Sister!"
There was a call from above, A
E looked up and saw a handsome teenager.
After a few months of getting along, Zhang Jin's language barrier is still the same, and he can't say the whole sentence in his mouth, but there are two words that he is now very proficient in and can blurt out.
One is "sister", and the other is "uncle", which is called A
e and Lin Shuo's.
The young man wore a funeral uniform in the Altai Mountains, and later Lin Shuo told A
e, which allows A
E felt that her sister was too incompetent.
So since he came back from the Altai Mountains, Zhang Jin's clothes are all A
e bought it for him.
Now he wears it, and so does it.
This is a set of equipment for wild mountaineering, mainly practical, the appearance is actually average, and it is compact and neat.
can't stand Zhang Jin himself is a handsome guy, the young man is 1.8 meters tall and stands in A
In front of e, there is a long body and jade body, sword eyebrows and starry eyes.
Except for the Tang knife behind him, which looks a little discordant, there is nothing wrong with the others, just two words, eye-catching.
A
E nodded with satisfaction: "It's an adult." ”
Zhang Jin didn't seem to be very satisfied with this comment, pouted, and said in A silently
E sat down beside him.
After Zhang Jin, it was Wei Xingshan who came to the hotel lobby.
When this strong man went out, he was like a coolie, with a sixty-liter bag on his back, stuffed to the brim.
In addition to the first time, he also carried two large black suitcases, each of which was about the same size as the large bag behind him.
A
E knew that it was arms and could not be shown in the hotel, so Wei Xingshan came down with the packaging.
"Hey, the two masters of our hunting gate, haven't come down yet?" Wei Xingshan came to A
E looked left and right, put the box at his feet, and sat down on the sofa.
The three of them sat on the couch, their eyes fixed on the direction of the elevator room, waiting for the last two to come down.
As a result, he didn't pay attention, and Lin Shuo appeared on the side.
Seeing the huge wooden box behind Lin Shuo, A
E then remembered that chasing the master was too heavy and the size was too big to take the elevator.
Lin Shuo walked down from the eighteenth floor of the ice coffin through the stairwell.
"Oh, it's rare!" Wei Xingshan said, "You Lao Lin is not the last. ”
Wei Xingshan's complaint actually didn't buy anything wrong, because in the past, Lin Shuo was always the last to appear.
At first, Wei Xingshan thought he was putting up a fight, but later learned that he was actually doing maintenance for Chaiye in the room.
Although it is not an ordinary recurve bow, in the final analysis, it is a weapon.
But all weapons must be maintained.
Otherwise, this giant bow has been handed down from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and even if it is not rotten now, its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
Moreover, Lin Shuo's maintenance, as well as a set of rituals handed down by the Lin family since ancient times, took half an hour before and after.
So in the past, as long as he took the chasing master into the mountain, Lin Shuo was always the last to appear.
Didn't want today, there was one later than him.
That's Cao Yusheng.
Lin Shuo put the wooden box on the ground and sat on the sofa.
Wei Xingshan hurriedly took out a box of cigarettes from his jacket pocket and gave it to Lin Shuo.
The two smoked slowly, but after smoking a cigarette, Cao Yusheng still didn't come down.
"Do you want to urge?" Wei Xingshan asked tentatively, "Our uncle won't fall asleep again, right?"
"No, it won't. Lin Shuo shook his head, "This is a business, but anyone who is in our hunting door will never be so childish when we do business." ”
"Why did it take so long?"
"Didn't I say it before? Lin Zhang's cultivation, Cao Miao's borrowing, and Yunsu's refining of the gods, these are the cultivation methods of the six of us. Lin Shuo explained, "The methods are different, and the preparations made before going out are also different.
The Yun family and the Su family, who are the most trouble-free, will leave as soon as they say.
Our Lin family and Zhang family, it takes a little time, and the weapons need to be maintained or polished to ensure that the blades in their hands are in the best condition.
The most troublesome are the Cao family and the Miao family.
The Miao family, mainly some bottles and cans, which ones to bring today and which ones not to bring, have to grind for a long time.
The Cao family, there are more things to worry about, the selection and maintenance of various tools and mechanisms, that is all a matter. ”
"Hey, where is the temporary cramming!" Wei Xingshan pursed his lips, "Can't you prepare in advance?"
Lin Shuo glanced at Wei Xingshan, "When did your sniper's gun calibrate?"
As soon as Lin Shuo's words came out, Wei Xingshan understood.
In the army, the sniper's gun, before performing the mission, must be recalibrated and test-fired, otherwise the error is too large and the bullet will deviate.
And the time of this school gun is the closer to the task, the better, because the higher the accuracy in this way.
Therefore, no matter whether Lin Shuo is still Cao for the rest of his life, he is not cramming in preparation, but in order to ensure to the greatest extent that the guy in his hand can respond at the critical moment.
"Moreover, it was not until this morning that we confirmed that the target of this hunt was the white-headed flying corpse. ”A
E also said at this time, "So it is normal for the head of the Cao family to need more time to prepare." ”
"Hey, Lao Lin. Wei Xingshan asked at this time, "What is in our uncle's sandalwood box?"
"I don't know. Lin Shuo shook his head, "If it had been left fifteen years ago, I would have probably counted what was in the Cao family's box, my father told me before."
The inheritance hunter of the main lineage of the Cao family has two things that must be bringed. One is the compass and the other is the sign.
Back then, the Cao family's ability was stronger than that of ordinary people, but weaker than several other hunters, they were mainly good at Qimen Dunjia and Hetu Luoshu, as well as a first-hand secret technique.
In the past, if the Su family hunters couldn't find any useful information on the spot, they would have to rely on the Cao family to use Qimen Dunjia and Hetuluo Shu to calculate.
As for whether it is reliable or not, I myself have never seen it, anyway, when my father led the hunting team in the past, he didn't rely on the Cao family to calculate, he didn't believe in this kind of thing.
He asked the Cao family to form a team, mainly because he took a fancy to their white-headed flying corpses and secret techniques.
If you want to talk about flying corpses, it's really easy to use.
Reconnaissance and killing are all good hands, but if there is a flying corpse in the team, the hunters will be very easy.
At present, the main lineage of the Cao family is cut off, and the inheritance is also burned.
I really don't know what is in the Cao family's box now.
However, back then, my father admired the current head of the Cao family very much.
I reckon the contents of his box will not disappoint us. ”
After Lin Shuo finished speaking, everyone waited for more than half an hour, seeing that it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and it was almost time to have lunch if they waited any longer.
Wei Xingshan felt that this was not a problem: "Why don't I go and take a look, by the way, it will also open my eyes, I am Lin Shuo's eldest disciple, and my uncle will not treat me as an outsider." ”
"Okay, let's go. Lin Shuo waved his hand.
In fact, Lin Shuo also felt that there was indeed something abnormal in time.
Before Lin Shuo went downstairs, he passed by Cao Yusheng's room, the door was closed at that time, and Lin Shuo could hear the movement of Ding Lingdang inside, probably packing things.
It's been an hour now, and it stands to reason that no matter how much stuff you have, you should have packed it up.
Wei Xingshan went up for a while, A
The phone in E's arms rang.
The woman took out the phone and looked at the number, and frowned slightly: "Wei Xingshan's phone." ”
Lin Shuo chuckled in his heart, knowing that things were not good.
Sure enough, A
As soon as E answered the phone, the person bounced up from the sofa:
"Lin Shuo, the head of the Cao family fainted. ”
