Chapter 1938: Xiao Takahashi's Anxiety
At this time, the two mercenaries held their flashlights and observed the dark forest for a while, then extinguished the flashlight, turned their heads to look at Takahashi Jiro, and asked in a low voice, "What should we do now?" ”
Takahashi Jiro looked at the tired appearance of his two companions, and replied in contemplation: "Now rest and recover your strength first, and after dawn, follow the terrain and go down the mountain, and then think of a way out of the dense forest." This dense forest is too weird, and it is too dangerous for us to rush up the mountain now. That mysterious martial arts sect must have arranged many mechanisms on the mountain, and it will never allow outsiders to easily approach the treasures."
The two mercenaries nodded, took a vigilant look around with their pistols, and then sat down under a large tree, each took out the dry food they were carrying, and ate it.
The next morning, a little sunlight had already sprinkled in the dense forest, and the originally dark dense forest suddenly became gray. Takahashi Jiro woke up from his daze, observed the dim forest for a while, and then stood up from under the roots of the tree.
He walked around to wake up his two sleeping companions, wrapped in sleeping bags, leaning against the trunk of a tree, and tried to find their way by the changes in the bark of the trees and the slight differences in the branches and leaves in the canopy, and then according to the elevation of the nearby terrain.
All three were professionally trained special operations personnel, but they still wandered around the dense forest for two days before they emerged from the forest in an embarrassed manner.
Several people came out of the dense forest, and they all turned to look at the dense forest behind them in some horror. The forest was extremely cold, and several people had already put on the clothes they were carrying in their backpacks, but they still couldn't resist the cold breath that penetrated their bones, and finally put the cold-proof sleeping bags in the backpack on their bodies, but they still felt a chill.
At this time, several people finally got out of the dense forest, and only then did they feel the warm spring breeze that should have been this season and the warmth of the sun overhead. Several people sat on the edge of the forest and gasped for breath, and a mercenary said with palpitations: "Damn, it's just two climates, what the hell is this place?" Why is there such a big difference in temperature between the forest and outside! ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Jiro Takahashi beside him, and then asked, "What treasures did your ancestors see here?" This place is so fucking weird," he said, staring at the little Takahashi, and the other mercenary on the side also turned his head to look at Takahashi with a look of surprise on his face.
It turned out that Takahashi Jiro took them here to look for the treasures of the cold, but he didn't tell the details to the two companions, just said that his ancestors had found treasures here, so this time I came to see if I could get them back.
He heard the inquiries of his companions at this time, and knew that they had already doubted the treasure in their hearts, and now he must have assessed in his mind whether it was worth the risk.
He pondered for a moment before replying in a low voice, "Speaking of which, this was hundreds of years ago, my ancestors once said that there is a magical and coldest thing hidden in this mountainous area, and we don't know what it is. But ......"
He paused here and hesitated for a moment before continuing: "However, this kind of thing must be rare in the world."
He did not tell the two of them that this treasure was suitable for practice, but induced the two companions to think about the priceless treasure, so as to stimulate their determination to be in the same boat with him.
He had now realized that the trip would not be easy, and that he would have to rely on the help of his two companions. Otherwise, he would be alone, and it would be impossible for him to capture this cold treasure, let alone go deep into the mountains where his cousin disappeared to understand the secret of his disappearance. So he must now induce two mercenaries to be of the same mind as himself.
After hearing his words, a greedy look appeared in the eyes of the two mercenaries, and then they glanced at each other and inserted their pistols into their waists.
After a few people gasped violently at the edge of the forest for a while, Takahashi Jiro suddenly said to his two companions in deep thought: "This place is very strange, not only can no radio signal be received around the mountaintop, not even the compass can not be discerned, and the air in the forest is unbearably cold, and there is mystery everywhere."
"Let's look at a hidden spot below the hillside to see if there's anyone living on the top of the hill. If someone comes down from the mountain, it means that they must be from the mysterious martial arts sect that our ancestors once encountered, and it means that there must be that mysterious treasure near the top of the mountain."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the two of them, and the two nodded in contemplation. At this time, they had already believed the information provided by this little Takahashi. A few people went deep into the forest and almost couldn't find a way out, this mountain does have a mysterious color, maybe there is really the priceless treasure he said on the top of the mountain.
Both of them secretly said in their hearts: No wonder their head Kuroda would help this little Takahashi so hard, and he may also have taken a fancy to this treasure. They then followed Kogaoqiao to their feet and walked down the hill together, looking for a cave where they could hide as they went.
Several people walked around the hillside, but they didn't find a flash suitable for stealth, the hillside was overgrown with weeds, and patches of dense bamboo forests were distributed on the hillside. Takahashi Jiro looked at his surroundings and then led his two companions into a surrounding bamboo forest.
A few people took turns observing the movement in the bamboo forest, and finally one afternoon, they saw four or five locals wearing black cloth clothes and hats walking out of the dense forest on the hillside above.
At this time, Takahashi was stealthily guarding the edge of the bamboo forest, and when he saw a few people coming out of the dense forest, he immediately turned around and called out to his companions who were bowing their heads and pretending to sleep, and raised his binoculars to look at the few people who were walking quickly down the mountain.
Several of them, all with long scimitars hanging from their waists, and quivers and long curved bows on their backs, were now walking briskly towards the side of the mountains, as if they were going to hunt in the surrounding mountains. Takahashi Daiki, everything in front of him really verified the legend left by his ancestors, and the outfits of these people who had just appeared and the scimitars on their waists were indeed consistent with the legend left by their ancestors.
Jiro Takahashi and his two companions looked at the back of the hunter who had gone away, and their hearts were very excited. This means that there must be that coldest treasure on the top of the mountain. The three of them stared at the locals disappearing into the mountains in the distance before turning around and sitting down deep in the bamboo forest.
Takahashi looked at the two of them, a rare smile appeared on his face, and said in a low voice, "I'm right, right?" There must be treasures at the top of the mountain! ”
The faces of the two mercenaries also showed a look of joy, and one of them immediately showed a worried look on his face, and whispered: "Look at the few people who came down from the mountain just now, they are all hanging long scimitars on their waists and carrying bows and arrows on their backs, these people must have martial arts, and the three of us are looking for the path up the mountain, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to get it."
After hearing this, the smile on Takahashi's face immediately disappeared. An anxiety immediately arose in his heart: since someone had come down from the mountain, he could catch the captives and force them to ask for the way up the mountain, but the question was what to do after going up the mountain?
