Chapter 24: Confrontation
The rain is pouring down non-stop.
As far as the eye can see, under the miserable white sky, on the green vast earth, thousands of rains are like shuttles, with a kind of careful taste, can only use the most incredible to sigh the reincarnation, between the sky and the earth, pulled up a crystal water curtain.
A gentle breeze blows, mixed with the dampness and freshness of the moisture. Looking into the distance, the mountains in the distance are still the same mountains, and the trees in front of them are still this tree, but after more than 40 hours of uninterrupted rain washing, after washing away the accumulated dust, and finally restoring their original appearance, this endless mountains, this majestic tree, they all suddenly appear beautiful.
Yajie'er sat quietly in a cave that I don't know what age it was, dug out and now it has long been abandoned, she listened to the sound of rain outside the cave that I don't know how much time it will take to stop, stretched out her hand to stroke her lower abdomen, which has become heavier and heavier in the half-month-long escape, and must not be cold, and let out a helpless sigh.
In this mountain, there is no squadron stationed, and there is no armed force that can provide them with protection, so Yajieer can only take Wan Likai to retreat and escape, trying to find a way out of this mountain. Yajie'er had already understood that behind them was a group of professional soldiers who were proficient in jungle warfare and tracking, and although Yajie'er had set one trap after another along the way, these traps could only temporarily stop their tracking. They are always quick to adjust.
During the half-month-long escape, Yajieer and Wan Likai were like two lonely wolves, although they longed for the dry and tidy beds and hot food in the small mountain villages they passed, but because they were afraid of leading the terrible torrent behind them to those kind and simple villagers, they could only hide in a dark corner, looking at the smoke rising in the small mountain villages, chewing the food composed of leaves and raw meat in their mouths, and replenishing their bodies with the most basic nutrients and calories.
Although the rain washed the whole land, sweeping away all the traces they left behind, Yajieer clearly knew that the sense of security formed by all this was only a false surface. Battle-hardened mercenaries who have long been accustomed to surviving and fighting in the harshest environments will brave the rain to conduct a non-stop carpet search of the surroundings with the last traces they leave behind. As time passes, the danger will only get closer and closer to them.
There was a brisk footstep outside the cave, and the corners of Yajie'er's mouth couldn't help but reveal a faint smile, it was Wan Likai who was back. During this period of time, thanks to Wan Likai by her side, a woman like her, who was seven months pregnant, could support herself in the mountains for so long.
Wan Likai, who was wearing a homemade robe, but his clothes were still soaked by the rain, appeared at the door of the cave with a look of excitement. Before he saw Yajie'er sitting in the most hidden corner of the cave, he straightened his neck and shouted, "Master, look at what I have found!" ”
The continuous mountain rains have spawned mushrooms that grow on rotten wood stakes, and ferns that appear on the turf called "ground vegetables" that look a little like black fungus. In Wan Likai's arms, there was indeed a bunch of large and small mushrooms and a small pile of wild broad beans from time to time, but to Yajie'er's surprise, in Wan Likai's hands, he also carried a pheasant whose feathers were drenched all over his body and blood was still dripping downward.
Wan Likai triumphantly raised the crudely made bow in his hand, and shouted with a smile: "I shot, I actually shot it!" ”
Looking at the pheasant, on the ground of the cave, leaving a thin line of blood, a thought flashed in Yajie'er's heart: "It's not good! ”
"Poof......
Not far from the outside of the cave, there was a sudden slight sound, Ya Jie'er, who had received the most rigorous training in the elite training school of China's Fifth Special Force, clearly knew that this sound was the sound of a pair of leather boots soaked in stagnant water, stepping into the mud!
Yajie'er grabbed the bow and arrow in her hand like lightning, and under Wan Likai's stunned gaze, she suddenly pulled the bow in her hand, which was not very powerful, to the limit, and shouted at the same time: "Get out of the way!" ”
Wan Likai subconsciously quickly twisted his body, and an arrow with a conical stalagmite tied to the top, which increased the penetration of the target, with a high-speed roar that broke through the air, flew fiercely against the tip of Wan Likai's nose.
"Click!"
The arrows flying at high speed were suddenly cut in two by a single knife in the air, and the broken arrows fell on the hard ground of the cave with a light crisp sound. Wan Likai quickly turned his head, and it was only at this time that he was surprised to find that outside the door of the cave, there was suddenly one more person. A man who is at least 200 centimeters tall and looks like a tiger's back, but he has a flexible feeling with people, which makes Wan Likai think of it involuntarily at a glance...... Wolf!
A lone wolf who has been through a hundred battles and has been scarred, but has risen again and again to try to conquer the higher mountains!
Yajie'er stood up slowly, coldly looking at the man who was drenched in rain all over his body, standing alone outside the cave, with no weapons except for an M9 multi-functional saber in his hand. An outstanding female soldier who once won the Order of the Earth at the Elite Training School of China's Fifth Special Force, a man who was not afraid of death on the mercenary battlefield, and who was affectionate and righteous, looked at each other fiercely on the battlefield where they met on such a narrow road, and their eyes instantly pierced each other's eyes.
The man, like them, had apparently wandered alone in the mountains for a long time, lacking the necessary supplies. His rain-soaked uniform, tarnished by the branches, revealed his granite hardness, strength and beauty, and scarred muscles.
Ya Jie'er carefully looked at the man's backhand holding the knife, watched his flawless near-perfect movements, and recalled the lightning bounce just now, splitting the arrow in two, showing the amazing explosive power and precision, Ya Jie'er's eyes slowly shrank into the most dangerous needle-shaped. Yajieer had only one evaluation of this man who suddenly appeared in front of her with a wild surname and loneliness, obviously of Western European blood: "Dangerous, extremely dangerous!" ”
Only the strongest and most determined soldiers may break away from the team during the mission, and fight alone in a strange land in order to achieve the goal.
