The ridge was still densely wooded, but the slope in front of me was bare, with countless boulders scattered on the hillside, and only some low shrubs stubbornly burrowed out of the cracks in the stones

Wan Lin and the others all looked at the scene in front of them with some astonishment. They had just emerged from the dark, dense forest, and now they were surprised and suddenly enlightened in front of them.

Wan Lin ran to a boulder and crouched down, pulled out his night vision binoculars and looked around. The hillside is littered with rocks, and large boulders are exposed. Obviously, the earth's crust changed thousands of years ago, which led to the soil on this slope, and the vegetation on it slid down the hillside, revealing the boulders in the mountain, so that it did not connect with the surrounding dense forest, but formed an open field in the forest.

Below the hillside is a hilly terrain that stretches for several kilometres, with patches of weeds and scattered rocks growing on the rolling hills, and endless forests in the distance.

At this time, a little starlight had lit up in the sky, a bright moon hung like a shining sickle in the western sky, and the mountains were covered with a layer of pale silver with shadows.

Wan Lin carefully observed the surrounding scene, then turned his head to look at the surrounding team members, and saw that they were all hidden behind the boulders on the hillside, holding guns vigilantly in the direction of the mountain; Xiaohua had run to a boulder below, wriggling her little head to stare at the forest below.

Wan Lin whispered into the microphone and ordered: "Zhang Wa, take Xiaohua down to reconnoitre", "Yes" With Zhang Wa's low answer, a black shadow flashed behind a boulder on the side, and quickly rushed down the hillside, and in a blink of an eye, he was behind the stone where Xiaohua was, and then ran down the slope with Xiaohua who jumped down from the top of the stone.

Wan Lin raised his sniper rifle against his shoulder socket and stared closely at the dark mountains in front of Zhang Wa to prevent any opponents from appearing. In this terrain condition, it is suitable for the opponent to ambush, and if you are not careful, you will be caught off guard by the opponent.

At this moment, there was a slight sound on the hillside on the right, and a small white shadow first burst out of the darkness, followed by several fast-moving figures. Wan Lin glanced at the side from the corner of his eye, knowing that it was Cheng Ru and their group had also arrived.

When Cheng Ru and the others came to the hillside, they had already seen Wanlin and the others, and they immediately hid behind the stones on the right side of the hillside, raising their guns against the bottom of the mountain.

The night was getting darker and darker, and a gust of night wind suddenly blew in the dark mountain forest. The originally slight sound of Lin Tao in the mountains suddenly became louder, and the sound of "whoosh" roared in the mountains. On the hillside where Wan Lin and the others were, due to the lack of vegetation cover, puffs of sand and dust were already fluttering in the wind.

It didn't take long for Wan Lin's earphones to hear Zhang Wa's whisper: "Report, the hilly area below is safe." There seems to be a house near the forest, and it is not clear from a distance", "Stay on guard, let's go down" Wan Lin immediately replied in a low voice.

He then whispered the order to his teammates on the hillside to descend the mountain. In the thick of the night, several figures immediately flashed out of the hillside, ran quickly to the foot of the mountain, and soon reached the hilly area where Zhang Wa was, and the group immediately hid behind the undulating grass and stones, raising their guns to the surroundings.

Wan Lin ran to Zhang Wa, who was lying on a small hill, and lay down, Zhang Wa pointed sideways to Wan Lin, handed over the night vision binoculars in his hand, and then whispered: "It seems to be a room there, I can't see if there are people inside?" Xiaohua has already gone to scout".

Wan Lin raised his binoculars and looked forward, and there was a boxy courtyard about a kilometer away from the forest. The surrounding area of the courtyard was pitch black, and it was impossible to see the surrounding scene, except for the huge canopy of trees in the forest in the distance, swaying from side to side in the wind, as if giants were shaking their sturdy bodies.

At this time, Xiaohua ran back from the front, it came to Wan Lin and stood up, and gestured with its two front paws for a while, Wan Lin's face suddenly became gloomy, and then touched Xiaohua's head to show that he understood.

He whispered into the microphone and ordered: "There is a courtyard ahead, the opponent has stayed in the courtyard, Xiaohua just went in, and there is no sign of life inside." Cheng Ru and Zhang Wa went over with me to take a look, and the rest of the people arrived 500 meters in front of the cover" Before the words fell, he had already bent forward with Xiaohua and ran forward.

Zhang Wa and Cheng Ru then gently pulled the bolt of the gun and quickly followed him dozens of meters on either side of him.

Under the cover of night, people quietly approached the vicinity of the courtyard. Wan Lin ran to a rock in front of him and squatted down, raised his hand to signal the two people behind him to hide, and looked ahead through the night vision scope with a sniper rifle.

A square courtyard stands in the dark night, with weeds of different heights growing on the side of the courtyard wall, most of the courtyard wall is half a person high, and there are several thatched houses facing north and south, and the thatch on the roof is fluttering in the wind.

Wan Lin looked at the qiē in front of him, and there seemed to be a sense of déjà vu in his heart. This mountain is supposed to belong to the same mountain range as their hometown, and the mountain dwellings here generally do not build courtyard walls, at most they use thin bamboo to form a low fence to enclose their houses, unlike the mountain people in the northern mountains, who build a wall around their houses.

And the reason why Wanjia built the wall is because the ancestors are northerners. At that time, they only settled in this mountain to avoid disaster, so they followed the architectural style of their ancestors for generations, and built a courtyard wall around their home that was half a person high. In this way, it can not only guard against the invasion of ordinary beasts, but also protect ** There is a sense of security.

Wan Lin observed carefully for a while, turned his head to look at the little flower beside him, and saw that it was also admiring the courtyard in front from behind the stones with its head sideways, and there was a curious blue light in its eyes, as if it was also wondering in his heart.

Wan Lin shook his head, then bent down and ran under the courtyard wall, and Zhang Wa and Cheng Ru behind him also quietly followed. Wan Lin listened to the movement inside, turned around and made a few gestures to Cheng Ru and the two, and then grabbed the courtyard wall with his left hand, and his body suddenly jumped up, and a piece of fallen leaves quietly floated over the courtyard wall, and Xiaohua also jumped in.

Cheng Ru and Zhang Wa immediately leaned out and put their guns on the courtyard wall, Zhang Wa's automatic rifle was aimed in the direction of the courtyard gate, and Cheng Ru's sniper rifle was aimed at the row of low thatched houses.

The courtyard was pitch black, and Wan Lin fell on one knee after floating over the courtyard wall, holding a sniper rifle and quickly sweeping the entire courtyard.

The courtyard was quiet, and there was no sign of anyone at all. Xiaohua had almost run around the courtyard at this time, and then lay on the ground with her eyes fixed on the direction of the courtyard gate. Wan Lin understands that just now Xiaohua said that the group of people had appeared here, and now looking at Xiaohua's expression, the other party should have already left here.
