Chapter 0264 It's useless to pretend to be dead
Escaping with Anina seemed like the wisest option, but it wasn't. Escaping together is equivalent to handing over his back to that South Asian sniper's accomplice, and Anina is not fast, once caught up, both he and Anina will be killed.
Another reason is that there is almost no need to guess that these snipers are all killers hired by the Gu family, so it is possible that Danny was involved in this operation - an opportunity to kill Danny, and Xia Lei does not want to miss it!
In other words, at another time, on another occasion, Xia Lei, an ordinary ordinary person, had no excuse or reason to shoot at someone. But now it's different, he's self-defense, and the gun is Tang Yuyan's!
Anina's back disappeared from view, and Charlei left the treeless hillside and entered a dense mountain forest. In the process of moving, the nerves of his whole body were tensed, and the farsightedness and perspective of his left eye were also awakened, vigilantly observing the surrounding environment.
However, a few minutes passed, and the accomplice of the South Asian sniper did not show up, and no one fired a shot.
The setting sun sank into the western sky, and the mountains and forests gradually darkened.
Xia Lei hid behind a large tree, facing the direction of the mountain, but the line of sight of his left eye looked at the left and right sides from time to time, and made a perspective on the direction of the high part of the mountain. However, there was no movement in the entire forest. Except for the sound of the wind and the cries of the homing birds, this mountain forest is definitely a dead world.
"I shot the South Asian sniper, and his accomplice must have known. Could it be that his accomplices were scared away? impossible, impossible. But if his accomplice hadn't fled, why didn't he show up? could he have been waiting for something......" Xia Lei glanced up at the darkening sky, and suddenly realized something.
The other party is waiting for dark.
Xia Lei didn't have any night vision equipment on his body, and if the other party judged that he was a very powerful opponent, he would definitely wait until dark to make a move. And the other party must have night vision equipment on his body. During this time, the other party only needs to lock the route down the mountain.
Every sniper has a lot of patience and endurance.
Xia Lei seems to be lacking in this area, but he is no ordinary sniper.
Charley gave up waiting, and he slung the sniper rifle on his back. Looking up at the branch above his head, he bent his legs and jumped suddenly, and his body rose steeply from the ground, jumping more than two meters high. The soles of his feet were more than two meters above the ground, and with his height and reach, he grabbed a branch five meters above the ground at once. He pulled his hands up, and his body was standing on the branch.
The light skills of the Tang Sect learned from Tang Yuyan have been put to use, and the hard practice in the past half a month has also reaped the results.
Up the tree, Xia Lei carefully moved between the branches, and soon climbed to the highest place.
The tree is at least twenty meters tall, taller than any tree in the vicinity. Xia Lei was in the canopy of the tree, and his vision suddenly widened. There wasn't enough light, and it wasn't a problem for him. Even in the dark of night, his left eye could see rabbits moving two kilometers away!
In the canopy, Xia Lei's left eye searched the mountains and forests like a radar.
A few minutes later, two targets came into his field of vision. At eight o'clock, a blonde man with a Barrett anti-materiel sniper rifle was held. This gun can penetrate the armor of armored vehicles, and even if you hide behind a tree, you will not be able to escape the fate of being hit. At twelve o'clock, an Asian man with an M200 sniper rifle. Both men have oil paint on their faces and are dressed in jungle camouflage for snipers.
The gaze of Xia Lei's left eye locked on the Asian man, and although his face was painted with oil paint, Xia Lei still recognized that he was Danny!
A sneer appeared on the corner of Xia Lei's mouth, and the sniper rifle was slowly removed from his shoulder and rested on a branch, but he was not aiming at Danny, but at the blonde man with Barrett's anti-materiel sniper rifle......
The breeze blows through the mountains and forests, and the treetops rustle. Such a sound muffled the sound of the soles of his feet stepping on the dead branches and leaves, but even with this and that cover, and the night vision equipment that could be thermally imaged at night, Danny's nerves were still tense, and as his footsteps extended, his mood became more and more nervous.
After all, it is an opponent like Xia Lei to deal with, and until this moment, Danny's mind still can't help but think of the scene of him sniping Xia Lei at the Haizhu International Hotel. Two kilometers away, he pulled the trigger the moment the door opened, but Xia Lei dodged his bullet!
In the face of such an opponent, who can easily get up? What's more, this is still a sniper master invited from South Asia who has been killed by Xia Lei!
If given the choice, Danny would never want to be within three thousand meters of Xia Lei, who has a sniper rifle. However, Gu Dingshan hated Xia Lei to the core, and wanted Xia Lei's life no matter what. He can refuse everything, but he can't refuse Gu Dingshan's orders.
"He's in the middle of the woods, and if it's any darker I can kill him. Danny said to himself, sneaking forward cautiously.
From the headset came the voice of his accomplice Kane, "Danny, he's been blocked in the woods by us. But I've lost his sights, what's the matter with this guy? Is he a monkey?"
Danny lowered his voice, "Don't speak! he's even more cunning than you think!"
Kane didn't stop talking, "Damn, tell me, what is this guy's identity? He can kill the tiger! What are you hiding?"
"Bastard, can you shut your mouth?" said Danny, furious.
"Okay, but you have to ask your boss to give me a commission, five million dollars is not enough for such a powerful opponent. Kane's voice.
A killer is worth five million dollars, which is a very high price in the world. From this, it can also be seen to what extent Gu Dingshan wants Xia Lei's life.
"You guy, you're taking advantage of the fire to rob!" Danny's eyes flashed with hatred, and he also had a cold voice in his heart, "When I kill Xia Lei, I'll kill you!"
"Raise the commission, add another million, or I won't do it." Kane's voice.
"Okay, my boss won't care about this money, do things first, I promise you, you will definitely get the money you want. Danny said.
As soon as his words fell, a dull gunshot suddenly sounded in the mountain forest.
Danny subconsciously lay on the ground, then rolled behind the trunk of a tree and said, "Kane, did you see him? Kane?"
Danny's voice could still come from the headset, but Kane couldn't respond to Danny. There was a hole the size of a bowl in his chest, and his heart was shattered.
Bang! Another gunshot.
The trunk of the tree trembled, and sawdust shrapnel flew everywhere. Danny, who was hiding behind a tree, did not dare to take his head and protected his head with his hands to avoid being stabbed by fragments of the trunk. Just two seconds ago, he was still thinking about how to kill Xia Lei, but now his heart was filled with fear. The image of Xia Lei dodging his sniping appeared in his mind again, and his back was also cold.
A bullet flew and hit the same place on the trunk of the tree. The trunk of the tree, which had been partially shattered, shattered again, and the huge impact shook the trunk, sending sawdust flying.
Danny jerked up from the ground and pressed himself against the trunk of the tree, looking for the next place to hide. However, just as he was about to rush to the next tree, a bullet grazed the trunk and hit a rock beside him. Sparks splattered, and a fragment of a rock struck him in the leg, and although it didn't cut the cloth, it hurt fiercely.
This shot obviously predicted which direction he was going to escape, and shot in advance to block it. Luckily, he was delayed for a second, otherwise he would have been killed by the bullet as soon as he showed up.
"Damn, is this guy a human or some kind of monster?" Danny was shocked and angry, and the fear in his heart intensified. He spotted a tree on the other side, ready to move to his hiding place.
However, before Danny could determine the timing of Xia Lei's next shot, a fourth bullet suddenly flew and hit the trunk of a tree behind him, this time, the bullet pierced through the tattered trunk and pierced Danny's back.
"Ahh
Although the trunk of the tree counteracted some of the impact, there was still a terrible wound on his back. The bullet hit his kidneys, blood gushing out, and the pain was so sharp that it ate at every nerve in him.
Danny ditched his sniper rifle, drew a pistol, and lay motionless on the ground. He knew very well that he wouldn't be able to snipe Xia Lei even when he wasn't injured, let alone now. He now only has one hope, that is, Xia Lei thinks he is dead, comes to check on his body, and then he sneaks up on Xia Lei with a pistol.
Three seconds later...... Bang!
"Ahh
Pretending to be dead? That would have to fool Xia Lei's eyes.
And in this world, there has not been a single person who can deceive Xia Lei's eyes.
Charley slid down from the tree and ran towards Danny with his sniper rifle.
Danny lay on the ground, bleeding from the wounds on his waist and thighs. But he wasn't dead, his heart was still beating.
Charley walked up to Danny and flipped him over with his foot. He removed the pistol from Danny's hand, as well as the saber on his body, and then choked Danny's mid-hole.
After a weak moan, Danny opened his eyes, and then he saw Xia Lei's face. At this time, he would rather see the devil's face than Xia Lei's face.
"Are you awake, do you need me to help you stop the bleeding?" Xia Lei looked concerned.
"Phew!" Danny wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood from Xia Lei, but he didn't have the strength at all now, and a mouthful of blood came out of the corner of his mouth, very disgusting.
Xia Lei frowned, "Is Gu Dingshan worth your life for him?"
"Kill me!" Danny said hatefully.
Xia Lei shook his head, "I won't kill you, you're still useful." I'll help you stop the bleeding and I'll take you to the hospital for treatment. I promise you, Kodingsan will be finished with you. ”
Danny reached for the pistol that had been kicked aside by Charleigh.
Charley frowned, then raised the handle of his gun and smashed it on Danny's head......
It seems that it is really superfluous to wake him up.
