Chapter 299: Scared to the ground
As the saying goes, "it's easy to go uphill but hard to go downhill", but this is not always the case in different environments.
The three black shadows encountered the problem of difficulty in going uphill, and the "difficult" here is not that the road is difficult to walk, but that they dare not walk.
Unlike the downhill slope just now, this half of the slope is not pitch black, but the higher you go, the closer you get to the staff dormitory area. The front yard of the dormitory area is close to the top of the slope, and there are two light poles at the top of the slope, and two large tungsten lamps are hung on each light pole, which illuminates less than half of the slope as bright as day.
It takes more than 20 minutes to get from the bottom of the slope to the top of the slope, and it takes 7 or 8 minutes to walk through the bright places. There are so many miners, it's hard to guarantee that no one is standing on the top of the slope to pee or something. With such brightness, if someone stands on the top of the slope and looks down, it is easy to spot the clues.
The three of them climbed from the bottom of the slope to find a way, but it was nothing when they first climbed the slope, anyway, the light was still dim, but the more they walked, the brighter and clearer they went.
The tall black shadow couldn't help but be embarrassed, the other day I saw the daytime scene, and I didn't think about going uphill from here at night. But now that we have reached the halfway slope, we can only reach the top as soon as possible, otherwise the longer it will be, the more troublesome it will be.
Looking around, I found a large rock in front of the right. The tall black shadow no longer hesitated, and immediately beckoned to the two beside him, moving diagonally towards the boulder.
The tall black shadow was the first to reach the boulder, hiding behind.
The medium and low ones also followed immediately, and when the two of them were three or five steps away from the big stone, an accident occurred.
With the sound of footsteps, a man appeared on the top of the slope, and that person was coming to the side, unbuckling his belt.
And when the middle and low people were moving, they didn't forget to pay attention to the top of the slope and happened to see that person.
"People." The man at the top of the slope made a muffled voice.
Although they had been seen, the middle and low two did not hesitate, and still took three steps and two steps, and quickly reached the back of the boulder.
A "plop" sound came from the top of the slope.
What was that? Put stones from the top of the mountain? It's not like that. Although the three of them were slightly nervous, they still looked curiously from behind the stone.
Who's there? What about people? Where did the standing man go?
"People, people." The muffled voice came again.
Why is the man lying there? The three of them could distinguish by the sound, and only saw two paws of their feet that kept kicking.
The sound of walking with his shoes came, and the voice of complaining also sounded at the same time: "Oh, look at you, you have to go here to release water, but you didn't look at it, but came out first." How many times have I told you? If you are off duty, you have to take a good break, and you have to drink two taels of cat urine. Look at it, how dangerous it is, if you fall headlong, what do you say? You gray ghost. ”
"There's someone, there's someone down there." The muffled voice was still speaking.
"Someone? Who's there? What's the point? A shirtless man appeared at the edge of the slope and looked down, "Where is the man?" Look at your blind hole, or the ghost of that cat. ”
Under the pull of the shirtless man, the person who fell down before also stood up, and scolded while standing: "Damn*, which one lacks virtue and ghost grandson, wet this urine and slip Lao Tzu." ”
"Okay, it's a big tongue, what are you talking about? What about people, where are people? The shirtless man questioned.
"People, people? Eh, what about people? Just now I saw someone in my eyes, and that person had four eyes, staring at me. A muffled voice sounded, accompanied by gestures.
The shirtless man scolded: "Say that you are a blind cave, you are a person who drinks cat urine and is dazzled, and you still have a hard mouth and four eyes?" Look, you're hell. ”
"Ghosts? Ghosts? The muffled voice was terrified.
"Oh, okay, how can there be a ghost? Well, that's just a casual remark. This is bright, and there are ghosts that don't come out, it must be the blue eyes you drink, and you can see the flowers. Let's go, go back and get some good sleep. The fat man said, tugging at the other and turning to leave.
"Is there a ghost? Four eyes ......" muffled voices farther and farther away until there was no sound.
The three of them all sighed, secretly saying that it was dangerous. Fortunately, he ran to the back of the stone in time, otherwise he would have to let the shirtless man see it, and it would be too late to be invisible at that time.
But what's next? Leaning behind the stone, the three of them observed from outside.
The six looked at each other, asking each other for a solution.
Still a big tall continuous gesture, made a few gestures.
The two listeners nodded frequently and responded with gestures.
After the communication, the three of them listened with bated breath, but did not hear any movement, and started to act again.
In fact, there is no best way, as long as you want to go up from this position, you have to go through that light area. This time, however, the route was adjusted, and instead of going straight to the top of the mountain, it first moved to the right side of the rock, and then ran along the edge of the hillside to the top of the mountain.
There are certain benefits to being compared to going straight up and straight down. If someone appears at the top of the slope, they often see the big surface first, and rarely look directly at the edge, so that they can have a few more seconds of emergency response time. Moreover, people on the top of the slope do not need to deliberately walk lightly, and the soles of their feet need to make a sound when walking, which can give the three people reaction time.
In this time, the three of them can prepare to lie down on the slope. As long as you are not deliberately looking for three people with a purpose, if you just take a general look, you may not be able to find three figures lying on their stomachs in black.
Although this plan of travel was better, the three of them did not dare to be careless, and their mood became more and more nervous, the key is that they are getting closer and closer to the top of the slope, and the light around them is getting brighter and brighter.
Gradually, the sloping roof came into view. Soon, I saw most of the house. At this time, if someone happens to appear, you can definitely see three people. The three of them were in the strong light range of the tungsten lamp, but the house was much darker, with a strong contrast between light and dark.
Fortunately, none of them came out, and the three of them passed through the brightest area to a relatively dark place.
The mood of the three of them not only did not relax, but became more nervous. The point is that it's too close to the house and you can hear the snoring inside. The glass on the house is also shiny, and if someone looks out, they will definitely be able to see it.
Hidden in the corner of the house, they used gestures to communicate simply, and then the three of them hunched their waists and quickly moved towards the north side of the house. The back of the house is next to the rocks, and you can only walk from the front.
Thankfully, no one came out, and the three of them went to the north side of the house. It's a lot farther away from the tungsten lamp, and the light is a little darker.
A few more houses flashed out on the north side, but there was no snoring, and the three of them slowly leaned in.
……
Xu Jianjun's reward and teaching continued, but he changed the room, he changed to the next hut, and most of the rest of the people were in the previous big room.
"Don't worry, as long as you say it, I will keep it secret for you, and the bonus will be handed over directly to you." Xu Jianjun kept his voice as low as possible.
The worker standing opposite shook his head: "I don't know, I really haven't heard of it." ”
"You can think about it, this is a matter of benefiting others." Xu Jianjun guided again.
"I don't know." The workers are still the same answer.
"Go ahead, next." Xu Jianjun waved his hand.
The worker did not speak, but turned and walked out of the house.
Seeing the workers coming out and hearing the voice of "next", the tall and short people standing in the courtyard looked at each other, and wondered in their hearts: This time is too long, when will it be?
……
From the top to the top of the slope, nearly two hours have passed. The three dark shadows looked at many houses, but they had seen the inside and around the house, and there was no target they were looking for, and of course they were not found.
Now that they have been separated for the time being, they are able to see more areas in order to save as much time as possible.
Medium and one person follows the mountain wall and continues to move north.
Since it is far away from the area of the electric tungsten lamp, there is no other light, and the surroundings are dark.
The medium one walks against the wall of the mountain while leaning forward with the arm to avoid obstacles in the dark space.
Suddenly, I felt a cool swishing at the outstretched arm, and I subconsciously retracted my right hand. I couldn't help but be surprised: what's going on?
No one spoke, and there was no other movement.
Leave the mountain wall and look sideways to the right front. As far as the eye could see, it was much darker, and there was a cool air. The middle nodded secretly: Understood.
Swallowing a little nervously, he reached into the bag he was carrying with his right hand and took out a small object. Steady his mind and move two steps forward.
A cold aura hit his face and hit his whole body.
The medium raised his right hand, and a not-so-bright pillar of light shot out.
As the pillar of light moved, a tall hole appeared in the line of sight.
What is that? At the end of the pillar of light, not far from the entrance of the cave, there were several sacks lying reclining.
One, two, three, four, a total of four.
Yes? Taking a breath of cool air, the middle one almost screamed, and his palms couldn't help but sweat.
I turned off the flashlight and looked around, but I didn't find anything unusual. So he turned on the flashlight again and walked towards the hole.
The four sacks lay quietly, always feeling as if they were going to move, or making other sounds, but at this time I really wished the sacks could move, and it would be better if they could speak.
It's getting closer and closer to the sack, and it's already in sight. Medium lift your foot and gently touch the bottom of the sack on the edge.
The moment he touched the sack, his right foot retracted like an electric shock, and it was clearly a foot and a toe just now.
The hairs stood up instantly, and the whole body was cold, cool from the inside out, cold from head to toe. In this cold inner tension, there is also a different feeling.
Gritting his teeth, pursing his lips, he squatted down sharply and quickly untied the rope at the mouth of the bag. Too nervous to cut short stay here.
It was precisely because of the nervousness that it was difficult to untie the rope that was simply tied for a while.
Finally, after some delay, the mahjong mouth was untied.
Hold a flashlight under your armpit and open the bag with both hands.
"Huh?" The throat couldn't help but make a sound, and the middle frightened ass sat down on the ground.
At the mouth of the bag turned out to be a head, a slick head.
There was a slight vibration in his waist.
The medium one clutched his throbbing chest with one hand and took out his phone with the other. A line of words popped up on the screen: Director, it's time.
Time's up, time? Thinking silently in his heart, he put back his phone, grabbed the mouth of the bag with one hand, and raised the flashlight with the other.
