Chapter 236: Bandits
Ten minutes later, Shen Hao found Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang on a river beach two hundred meters away, and the injuries on both of them were simply treated. Su Yue is fine, it is just a simple fracture, she has already splinted herself and fixed the broken bone. But Chen Xiaoshuang's condition on the ground was a little bad, with a large penetrating wound on his right shoulder, even if it was bandaged, it still couldn't stop the bleeding. In addition, after tossing in the icy river water for so long a day, the body temperature has also lost a lot. She was unconscious at the moment, her skin was as pale as a dead person, and even her lips had lost their blood.
"Make a fire." After checking Chen Xiaoshuang's pulse, Shen Hao's face was also a little ugly. This is still because of her high-level Nightmare Hunter's physique, she can barely save her life, but the gunshot wound on her right shoulder is too big, and the bones inside are shattered, and just stopping the bleeding is a very troublesome thing.
Now Skynet's pursuers are likely to be still looking for their traces, and it is definitely a very dangerous thing to start a fire at this moment. But there was no way, whether it was to deal with the wound or maintain Chen Xiaoshuang's body temperature, he had to take a risk.
Under a banyan tree with a dense canopy, Shen Hao lit a bonfire, fortunately, it had not rained recently, the dead branches in the woods were still dry, and the smoke from the burning was not too big.
After boiling hot water, Shen Hao helped Chen Xiaoshuang treat the wound again, and the necrotic tissues burned by the high-temperature warhead were all removed, and then used some nightmare energy to stimulate the cells near the wound, barely stopping the blood first. Next, Su Yue helped, took off her soaked clothes, and wiped her body with hot water, Shen Hao found a large amount of hay to lay a simple shack, and Su Yue also took off her clothes and used her body temperature to keep her warm.
Fortunately, the heavy weapons and equipment were lost when they fell into the water, but the military dry rations they carried with them were still preserved. Shen Hao used crushed compressed biscuits to cook a bowl of porridge for the second daughter, and he dived into the river with a dagger to catch a few live fish.
The sun had set, and darkness had covered the forest. Chen Xiaoshuang's breathing gradually stabilized, and the wound did not become infected after being injected with first-aid medicine, so he was fortunate not to have a high fever. The soaking wet clothes of the three had been dried, and Shen Hao handed over all the remaining weapons and ammunition to Su Yue, leaving her to stay where she was to protect the wounded. He followed the riverbank and began to search for the missing Chen Zihao and Donald.
As early as the beginning of the disembarkation, Shen Hao has been calling the two of them in the communicator, but he has never received any response. This is not to say that the two men must have suffered misfortune, but it is more likely that the communicator was swept away or damaged when the river bottom tumbled. However, both of them are veteran soldiers, and it is very likely that they will choose to land at this part of the river.
In the dark night, Shen Hao's figure was like an agile black ape, running quickly near the undulating river beach. However, after all, he has not strengthened his senses, although his eyesight and hearing are much stronger than those of normal people, but it is really difficult to find someone in such a complex environment without a trace of light.
After running for a few hundred meters in one breath, there was still no trace of the two of them, and Shen Hao began to be a little anxious. It had been several hours since they had dived, and if the two men had not been in danger, they would have found a suitable landing site long ago. However, there was no sign of landing on the river beach along the way.
Did they choose to land on the other side? Or has it been washed further downstream? Shen Hao stopped running and stood by the river thinking quietly.
Suddenly, his afterglow seemed to catch a fleeting red light, and he turned his gaze to that side. It was a shallow conversation, but there were a few rocks scattered together, forming a small depression, and the red glow seemed to appear in the crevices of the rocks.
Shen Hao jumped lightly and landed on the rocky hollow over there, where the water was only as deep as a person's waist. The rushing water crashed against the nearby rocks, creating a small whirlpool. However, after Shen Hao fell into the water, the red mangs before did not reappear.
Shen Hao frowned, his ears quietly sensing the underwater fluctuations, he had always believed in his own feelings, and self-explanations such as so-called hallucination and illusion did not exist in his dictionary at all.
Suddenly, a ripple appeared on the surface of the water. Of course, ripples are not uncommon in such currents, but just now this ripple seemed a little abrupt, as if something was trembling lightly at the bottom of the water.
Shen Hao's eyes froze, his left hand was forked into the water into a claw, and with a "bang", a black object was dragged out of the water by him. It was a cold metal touch, and when it was grabbed by Shen Hao, the thing struggled slightly, making a squeaky motor running sound. A metal triple claw opened and closed a few times, and the red light characteristic of the infrared electronic eye flickered in the center of the three claws.
"Hydrobot!" Shen Hao recognized the thing in his hand at a glance. This is also a non-humanoid terminator developed by Skynet, which looks like a 4-foot-long giant snake, has no eyes, and its head is a claw, as sharp as a blade, which can drill through enemies, and it senses sound and vibration, and goes out to search for prey, "Skynet" belongs to the water, which has appeared in the movie "Terminator 2018".
However, at this moment, the Hydrobot in Shen Hao's hands is obviously only half of it left, the long snake-like body has disappeared, and only the three-clawed head is still intact, but it is obvious that due to the energy core and damage, it is almost on the verge of scrapping.
"It seems that they have been attacked by these things......" Shen Hao looked at the location of the fracture of Hydrobot's body, the wounds were uneven, not like being cut but forcibly torn off by brute force, then there were only those nearby who could do this except himself, only Donald with the Hulk transformation ability could barely do it. Of course, the so-called barely doing it means that he is not releasing the Nightmare Energy transformation.
"Huh-" Just as Shen Hao was about to go into the water to find more clues, a gunshot suddenly rang out.
Shen Hao's face changed, and the direction in which the gunfire came from was the temporary camp where Su Yue's two daughters were, and the sound of such a standard gunfire was their specially customized enhanced Magnum pistol. Immediately afterward, more gunfire was heard, including pistols, submachine guns, and assault rifles, chaotic and unorganized.
Shen Hao jumped up from the water without hesitation, and the ground under his feet cracked violently when he landed, and then his body rushed towards the direction he came from at a faster and faster speed.
They had lost almost all of their heavy weapons when they fell into the water, and there were no other firearms except the Magnum pistols that each of them had with them, so the jumbled gunfire was clearly ill-intentioned.
......
Under a banyan tree at the junction of the river beach and the woods, a campfire was still burning in the makeshift camp, but Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang did not stay where they were. In the shadows where the firelight could not shine, Su Yue used his injured arm to support Chen Xiaoshuang, who was still in a coma, and hid behind a raised rock. With night vision, she could clearly see that in the depths of the dark woods, there were many figures shaking, but because she had shot and killed several people before, the rest were carefully hiding behind those thick tree trunks, occasionally sticking their weapons out of the bunker and firing a few shots indiscriminately, but no one dared to really poke their heads out to see what was going on.
Because, those who dared to probe before have become cold corpses on the ground. Although it sounds a little incredible, the current situation is indeed a dozen men hiding in the woods with absolute firepower superiority, and in turn they are suppressed by Su Yue with two guns.
Su Yue's shooting adheres to Chen Zihao's teachings. Calm, efficient, and as precise as a machine, as long as there is the slightest noise anywhere, the next moment, there will be a bullet fired with precision.
"Shet! That bitch shot me in the thigh! Damn it! From time to time, someone screamed in the darkness, mixed with all kinds of vicious curses.
"Fake, if the two little bitches fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, you will definitely be allowed to survive and not die!" The bald man who led the team cursed with full anger, but the person who spoke was attached to an old tree on his back, and he didn't dare to leak his head. Just now, one of his subordinates wanted to throw a grenade under the cover of other people's indiscriminate shooting, but the grenade opened the ring and didn't throw it, because it exposed the hiding place and broke his arm, and as a result, he was killed together with two companions around him, and the other person threw it in the wrong place in a panic, injuring one of his own people, and then no one dared to use it again.
The rest of the bandits felt almost crazy, a woman, just a woman, suppressed them all to the point of immobility, and at night without the stars and moon, the grove was basically completely plunged into darkness, but the other party's eyes seemed to be sharper than owls, as long as they dared to venture out of the cover of those old trees and rocks, they would basically be accounted for the next moment. Even if there is a leak, if you shoot at that side, that side will immediately return fire, the other side is a sharpshooter, but not on your own side.
"Boss, do you want to use a bazooka?" A small black man touched the bald man who was leading the team and asked in a low voice.
The bald head couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this. They were a mob, a band of bandits, who didn't have the courage to fight the Terminators, and instead targeted their own kind. I have to say that there is no shortage of such scum in any era and in any background. Taking advantage of the rebellion's lack of vigilance against their fellow humans, they often raided small survivor colonies by day and night, killing all men, old and children, in addition to food and weapons, and only taking some young and beautiful women back to their strongholds for their own pleasure.
