Chapter 38 The Hungry Ghost
"Needless to say, if the situation is okay, there may be something to do tonight, rest well and recharge your energy." Silent Dust vetoed the idea of the two of them going together.
"Don't worry, big brother, we'll go back." When Fat Tiger and Er Niu heard this, their eyes lit up.
Mo Chen didn't speak, looked at the thief who had disappeared in front of him, stepped out of the grass, and followed, the monkey saw that the captain Fat Tiger smiled, his eyes were full of pride, but with his swollen face, the blackened eyes looked extremely slippery. When the fat tiger couldn't help but beat him, they also followed Mo Chen.
Looking at the two people who gradually disappeared, the fat tiger stomped his feet and said, "Let's go!" Let's hurry back, go back and eat and rest immediately, the eldest brother said that there may be activities tonight. ”
A group of people had already heard Mo Chen's words, and they had already run back one by one, and when Fat Tiger turned around to speak, all he was left with was a group of backs that strode back, and there was a figure beside him, looking at the group of people who were gradually moving away, Fat Tiger hurriedly followed.
Mo Chen and the monkey tiptoed far behind the bandits, who escorted a cart of goods and didn't notice that anyone was following them, and those bandits wouldn't have thought that they would meet officers and soldiers in the place where they camped far away from here.
Mo Chen and the monkey followed the bandits, but they made many detours before they stopped at the foot of a cliff.
Mo Chen saw that the bandit had stopped, and quickly pulled the monkey to find a place to hide.
"Big brother, why don't these bandits leave?" The monkey whispered.
Mo Chen looked around and found that it was a high-risk mountain, not only very large, endless, but also a dangerous peak, very dough, with huge stones set up above, and a cliff below, hundreds of meters high, unable to move forward at all, while the other directions were lush with jungle, and there was no problem with pedestrians, but the carriage had no way to walk, and he didn't know what these bandits were doing here.
"Wait and see." Mo Chen lowered his voice and said, I don't know what the bandits are doing here, why do they want to do so much, just wait.
The monkey thinks about it, and he will know if he waits, will these bandits disappear in front of them, thinking of this, he stared at the bandits with wide eyes, as if he was really afraid that the bandits would suddenly disappear.
One of the bandits seemed to be the captain of the bandits, and I saw him looking around, very vigilant.
Mo Chen saw that the thief was looking around, and quickly held down the monkey's head and hid it in the grass, so as not to be discovered and fall short. Looking at the vigilant look of the bandit, Mo Chen knew that he might have discovered a major situation.
The bandit didn't notice that there was no situation around, and folded his hands together to make the shape of a trumpet.
"Goo... Goo-goo... Goo-goo-goo..."
The bandit let out a strange birdsong, and it was rhythmic. Mo Chen guessed that this must be the bandits contacting their accomplices, and sure enough, after a while, Mo Chen saw a hanger hanging down from the cliff, the hanger was not big, a little bigger than a carriage, but it was enough for these people to go up.
When the monkey saw it, he was immediately happy and whispered: "Big brother, the hanger, it's the hanger." ”
"Be quiet, I see it, don't speak, let the bandits find out and we'll be finished." Mo Chen glared at the monkey, he couldn't see such a big shelf hanging from the cliff.
The hanger consisted of trees tied together and covered with planks, and the shelves were fenced on three sides, apparently to prevent them from falling.
"Knock"
The hanger landed with a bang, and the bandit blindfolded the horse's eyes with a strip of cloth, and then pulled the horse into the hanger, blindfolded the horse's eyes because he was worried that the horse would panic because of the height, and if the horse went crazy then they would be finished, and when the bandits all entered the hanger, the bandit's head kept cooing and the bird chirping, and the hanger slowly rose again.
When the thieves were out of sight, Mo Chen came out of hiding. Looking up at the cliff, there was no trace of the bandit at this time, but he believed that the bandit's lair was on this cliff, no wonder the army had been searching the mountain for so long, the ghost shadow was gone, the place was wrong, and it was strange to find the bandit's lair.
The monkey looked at the high cliff and said, "Big brother, why did those thieves get the car up so high?" ”
Mo Chen knocked the monkey on the head and said, "Why are you so stupid, this must be the lair of the bandits!" ”
Mo Chen looked around, and suddenly saw some scattered white grains on the ground, picked them up and looked at them, and was more sure of what he thought in his heart.
When the monkey saw what Mo Chen had picked up, he also stepped forward to take a look, and he was also overjoyed: "Big brother, this is rice!" It seems that the eldest brother is right, on the cliff is the lair of the bandits, and the dozen or so bandits came out to escort the grain back. ”
"Well, that's right, it's no wonder that those bandits are all as strong as oxen, and they all carry long knives, and they turn out to be grain transport teams." Silent Dust.
"Big brother, then what should we do now, should we go back and call Brother Erniu and them over and kill them into the bandits' lair?" The monkey said excitedly, with an inexplicable fierce light in his eyes.
"Can you climb up?" Mo Chen said speechlessly.
"Uh..."The monkey looked up at the cliff hundreds of meters high when he heard this, and his face was full of embarrassment for a while, how can you climb such a cliff? Climbing by hand? Don't dream, such a high cliff, climb up, half your life is gone, and if you accidentally fall down, you will definitely be crushed!
"What should we do, big brother?" The monkey immediately changed the topic, climbing the cliff that fights so much, don't joke, a hundred lives are not enough to fall to death.
"We walked around the mountain, and I didn't believe that the bandits had climbed up the cliff in the first place, and there must have been other paths." Silent Dust.
"Well, big brother, I don't believe they flew up at first glance." Monkey Road.
Mo Chen glanced around, determined a direction, and walked around the mountain to find a way up the mountain.
Erniu and his group of people followed the method taught by Mo Chen, and they really ran a lot easier, faster, and longer, although they were tired and out of breath when they ran back to the camp, but it was much better than when they ran out.
You must know that when they ran out, they all just fell asleep, and they all had enough energy! Before I ran back, I was already tired enough, but I still ran back in one go, and the time was about the same as going out.
They all marveled, the eldest brother deserves to be the eldest brother! It's just a simple way to make them improve so much, they can't believe it.
At first, they were all skeptical and tried it, but they didn't have hope, they were all ready to climb back, but it turned out that the method that their eldest brother taught them was very good, although it was simple, but it was practical, and they all admired Mo Chen.
Erniu They came back at noon, it was the time for the camp to eat, and when they came back, they were already hungry with their chests against their backs, and a group of big men went straight to the canteen.
The soldiers who were eating in the dining hall were startled when they saw a group of big men with black eyes and bloated faces rushing straight towards them. When they saw who was asking, they all secretly laughed, but no one dared to laugh loudly, they couldn't afford to offend this group of people!
Now the whole barracks knows about this group of people, if there is anyone in this barracks who doesn't know who the general is, it's normal, after all, some are newcomers, but if you want to say that anyone doesn't know the tenth battalion, it's who is lonely and unheard.
Now it is rumored in the barracks that the soldiers of the 10th Battalion are fools, and the captain of the 10th Battalion is crazy, it is good to mess with anyone, don't mess with the people of the 10th Battalion. Not only are all the 10th Battalion good hands, but all of them are not in their right minds.
Strong combat effectiveness, but who dares to provoke people with brain problems? And it's not one, it's still a group, and now no one in the barracks knows that the 100th battalion of 100 people killed many times more bandits than themselves.
Who doesn't know that the captain of the 10th battalion bravely broke into the tent of the captain of the 5th battalion in a rage, and the captain of the 5th battalion and the captain of the 9th battalion besieged the 10th battalion for a long time, and finally the captain of the 10th battalion cut off the head of the captain of the ninth battalion.
Not only that, but the captain of the 10th battalion also inserted the heads of those bandits and the captain of the 9th battalion in the cemetery of the soldiers killed in the 10th battalion
These people are not only ruthless to the enemy, but also to themselves, don't you see them all pig-headed faces? It wasn't left over from the fight with the bandits, but their own people, even their own people, who dared to provoke this group of guys, didn't they think they would have a long life?
In the strange eyes of everyone, Erniu and dozens of them didn't care, one by one, they held their heads high, as if they were very remarkable, according to the words of the eldest brother, those people were envious, jealous and hateful.
They rushed to the rice bucket one by one, no longer using dishes and chopsticks, they grabbed the rice with their hands and stuffed it into their mouths, dozens of people rushed to eat the food like starving ghosts, regardless of the strange eyes of the other soldiers.
When one of the tent eaters saw this, he shook his head, cursed his bad luck, and took his bowl and went to eat in the other tents. There are 1,000 people in this barracks, and although there are many people killed in battle, the number of people is not too small, and there are more than one place to eat.
Soon, the soldiers in this camp canteen were almost gone, they really didn't have the heart to grab food with this group of people who were like starving ghosts, and they still ate with their hands, and even if they ate food, they always felt like they had been pinched by others' hands, and there was still an appetite to eat!
Even if they don't dislike the food that has been grabbed by their hands, if they go up and grab it, it won't be worth it to be accidentally beaten.
Soon, there were only dozens of Erniu and their people left in this camp canteen, Erniu was good, picked up a wooden plate with a scoop of water, dug a large plate directly, sat on the table and ate it with his hands.
Not to be outdone, Fat Tiger also picked up a water scoop, dug up a large plate, and devoured it.
Others also wanted to follow suit, but there was no water scoop left, so they could only grab it with their hands around a few rice buckets.
They were really hungry, they didn't eat early and were pulled out by their eldest brother to run, running consumed physical strength, and they didn't eat breakfast, they were already hungry back and forth, and it was already noon when they came back, and there was no reason not to hurry up when they saw the meal.
