Chapter 2050: Ninja's Patience
Just when Takahashi Moriki approached a bush at the foot of the mountain, a sound of flapping wings suddenly came from under a rock in front of him, followed by a black shadow flew out of the weeds around the rock, screaming in the air, flapping his wings vigorously and flying more than 20 meters away, and then fell on the hillside and quickly drilled into a bamboo forest on the side of the hillside.
Takahashi Moriki was startled, knowing that his actions had harassed the pheasant resting in the grass in front of him, so he quickly stopped and lay tightly in the grass, looking sideways at the dim hillside.
Just as he turned his face sideways and looked up, "whoosh", a sharp wind suddenly sounded from the hillside, and a black shadow burrowed into the grass in front of him like lightning, followed by a "poof" sound! Takahashi Moriki was startled, and instinctively wanted to roll behind a rock on the side, but then he lay motionless in the grass again, holding a grenade on his waist tightly in his right hand, and staring at the grass in front of him with his head sideways.
In the grass on the hillside three or four meters away from him, a tuft of feathers was shaking violently, and a low "buzzing" sound was coming from the front. He knew in his heart that it was a long feathered arrow shot from the hillside!
A chill immediately rose in his heart! If he had moved a little just now, he would definitely have been exposed to the opponent's sharp feathered arrows. This feather arrow must have been the Lingxiumen above who was alarmed by the pheasant and suspected that there was someone in the grass below, so he tentatively shot an arrow.
There was silence on the hillside. Takahashi Moriki stared nervously as he looked up the hillside in the direction the arrow had just shot. The moonlit hillside was full of shadows, only the shadows of bamboo swaying in the mountains and the tall artemisia grass, but there was not a single figure in sight.
Takahashi Moriki's nervous mood suddenly calmed down, a trace of joy flashed on his face, and he secretly said in his heart: This must be the feathered arrow shot by the hidden hunter on the hillside with a curved bow! This shows that the people who are on guard here are mainly those who practice martial arts on Lingxiu Mountain, not police personnel with guns. From this point of view, his plan to hide from the back mountain and approach the top of the mountain is correct, and this is indeed the weak point of the other party's defense.
He waited quietly, knowing that he had inadvertently alarmed a pheasant just now, and this place would definitely be used as a key monitoring direction by the other party, and only after the other party was sure that there was no one here, the other party's surveillance eyes would leave, so he had to lie motionless in the grass and wait now.
Takahashi Moriki lay quietly in the grass, trying to adjust his breathing, and his face looked very calm. He is a master of Takahashi's ninja family, and concealment and patience are the magic weapons of their ninja to survive in complex environments, and it is also his strength.
Time passed slowly in the darkness, and Takahashi Moriki lay motionless in the grass, his head pressed against the grass, and his face looked out of the gap in the grass towards the top of the hillside.
There was not a single figure in sight on the silent, dimly lit hillside. Half an hour passed, and Takahashi Moriki slowly moved his body, his eyes fixed on the slope. There was no reaction on the hillside, he took a deep breath and slowly twisted his thin body, and under the cover of night, he slowly moved towards a dense bamboo forest on the side of the hillside.
When he carefully crawled for dozens of meters and approached the vicinity of the bamboo forest, his writhing body finally stopped under a huge rock. He leaned down under the rock and took a deep breath, knowing that he was out of danger for a while.
The sharp arrow that was shot condescendingly just now was inserted in front of him with a fierce wind, which really made him feel scared for a while. The sharp arrows that the other party shot quickly when he heard the sound were actually shot so accurately in the grass where he was hidden, which showed that the other party must be an experienced hunter in the mountains, and the other party's hidden location must be within 100 meters, otherwise the opponent's bow and arrow would not have so much force to insert in front of him.
Only these hunters who have practiced martial arts can quickly bend their bows and arrows after discovering the target, hit the target so quickly and accurately, and the power is so strong!
Takahashi Moriki was lying behind the rocks and trying to recover his strength, just a few tens of meters of snake walking, he had already raised all his strength, trying to avoid his body from touching the rocks on the ground in the movement, he really didn't dare to be careless in the face of such an experienced hunter on the hillside.
Takahashi Moriki rested for a while, and only after his breathing had calmed down did he slowly poke half of his head out from behind the rocks and carefully examine the hillside above with the help of the night vision goggles he wore on his face. At this time, the moonlight was very bright, and the pale silver moonlight sprinkled on the hillside, as if a thin silver blanket was draped on the undulating hillside, illuminating the mountain scenery faintly.
His gaze quickly swept over the surrounding hillside, instantly taking in the scenery around him, and he quickly retracted his head behind the rocks. Under this kind of bright moonlight, the effective sight distance on the surrounding hillside could reach hundreds of meters, and he really didn't dare to expose his head to the other party's surveillance field for a long time.
With a brief glance just now, he had already taken in the surrounding terrain. On the upper left slope of the rock he was on was a dense bamboo forest, and on the upper right slope there were several huge rocks sixty or seventy meters away, and the hunter who had just shot his bow and arrow must have been hiding behind those rocks.
He frowned and lay motionless behind the rocks, just now he ventured to climb here from under the nose of the other party, but there were dense weeds growing on the slope of the mountain for dozens of meters, which was convenient for him to hide his figure, but now although the rock he was on and the bamboo forest on the side were only a few meters away, it was an open land without cover, once he pounced on the bamboo forest at this time, it was very likely to be exposed to the other party's surveillance vision, so he did not dare to act rashly.
He looked around anxiously, behind the rocks above the side must be the guard posts set up by these Lingxiu Sect people, and the other party would never easily leave this observation position that was convenient for monitoring the bottom of the mountain, so he had to find a way to divert the other party's gaze.
Otherwise, he would not be able to hide into the bamboo forest on the side, and entering the bamboo forest was the way he could quickly march up the mountain.
Just when he was anxious, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a tall artemisia grass on the right slope. Artemisia grass grows against a rock, the tall artemisia grass swaying gently with the mountain breeze, and a few bright glitters are looming from the grass.
There seemed to be some small animal inhabiting the tall grass, and it seemed to sense something at this time? He was shaking his head and looking around vigilantly. The tall grass was on the right side of the hidden rock of the opponent's observation post on the hillside.
