Chapter 4: Hunt for Ruoyu: 20. Interception

Faceless said, "Your idea is also everyone's idea, so my method will succeed." I tested the velocity of that section of the river and found that the edge of the minefield only covered the ground, and there was a gap of nearly one metre between the ground and the river. Such an angle is not possible from the ground. But for a person who is familiar with the nature of water, it is very easy to use this empty space from the water. And among those mercenaries, it is not necessary for everyone to have such abilities. All they need is one of them. The person opens the way in front and secures a rope for the person behind to secure a rope for the person behind in this empty space. With this fixed rope, the back can be easily reversed against the current without being noticed. Even if these mercenaries are not equipped with any ropes, it should not be difficult to get a rope out with the equipment they carry with them, right? I say this because if I were in a cave, I could have done it and left in this way. If I can't, I won't say it works. I'm sure there must be someone among those mercenaries who can do it. ”

The faceless statement woke me up. I have to admit that this is a way to go. Before, I also had the same opinion as Xiao Xiao, so I ignored the deployment of Xiaohe. I know that those mercenaries will not just sit in a cave and wait to die, they will definitely rack their brains and try all kinds of things. As long as you can break through, you will not hesitate to take risks. Now, since Faceless can think of this method, it is hard to guarantee that no one among those mercenaries will think of a little.

Thinking of this, I reached out and patted my faceless shoulder and said, "Thank you!" What a great idea! With that, I turned my head to Aya, "We're probably going to have to work overtime tonight." You go and arrange to set up lighting on the river surface at the entrance of the cave, so that the area is like daytime, and there is no blind spot with any light. ”

Aya was stunned for a moment, "But what do you use to illuminate that section of the river as if it were daytime?" Torches don't work! ”

That's when I remembered that Aya wasn't familiar with these modern things. I patted my head and said to Xiao Shu, "The materials seized in the ancestral hall have a small generator, you go and get them." You and Long Chuan go with the archmage, what do you need to find those captured supplies! ”

Aya took Xiao Shu and Long Chuan to the village. Faceless and I cleaned up and headed for the cave at the end of the creek. It was not long before nightfall, and the guards by the creek had not yet changed their guards, but most of the people of the tribes guarding were not at their posts, some of them were chatting behind the big rocks, and some were eating and drinking together with five or six people. Seeing this scene in front of me, I can't help but be glad to have come here in time, otherwise, the consequences would be really serious. I gave the two bright lights I had brought to Faceless and asked him to find a suitable position on his own and monitor the movement in the river.

When I found the leader of the tribe, he was eating and drinking with a few people. When he saw me coming, he was a little embarrassed and said, "It's windy at night in the mountains, so drink some wine to keep out the cold." ”

I didn't say anything, and the way things are like this is not something that can be solved in a few words. Looking at these tribesmen, I just asked lightly, "How's the situation in the cave?" ”

The leader said, "Don't worry, it's all right! There was no movement in the cave. With mines guarding this place, these mercenaries can't fly away! ”

At this moment, a crisp gunshot rang out by the river. I jumped over and lunged at the place where the gun had fired. It turned out that this shot was fired without a face.

Faceless saw me and said, "Just as I imagined." It's a pity that after I shot it, those people reacted quickly and all shrank back! ”

The leader then ran over and asked, "Who fired the shot?" What happened? ”

Faceless said, "It was I who fired the gun, and someone came out of the cave." ”

The leader said incredulously, "What about people? ”

Faceless said, "In the river." ”

The leader looked suspicious, looked at the river illuminated by the bright lights, and said, "Where?" Why can't I see anything? ”

Faceless said coldly, "You drank too much, the water is so fast, people can still stay where they are if they fall into the river?!" ”

The leader looked at the faceless, "Yes, the water is so fast, and the mines are not sounding, where did the people come from?" ”

Faceless said, "Are you suspicious of me?" ”

The leader said, "Don't you think it's doubtful? ”

Faceless glanced at the leader with disdain, his head was stunned, he smiled coldly, and no longer bothered with the leader.

I think this boss is a bit of a mixed bag. Instead of speaking, I stretched out my arms and skimmed over the water. I followed the flow and found the mercenary who had been killed by the faceless in the huge drop. The body was hanging in a crack in the stone. I carried the corpse, swept it back down the water, and threw it in front of the leader.

The leader was still saying to Faceless, "For a man who came to Bogdad from outside, I have the right to doubt his motives for coming here!" ”

I said coldly, "I don't care what your purpose is, but your behavior tonight really doesn't match your leader's identity. ”

The leader looked at the wet corpse of the mercenary, a little dumbfounded. Squeaked and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Aya, Xiao Shu, and Ryukawa came over with a generator. He was joined by several chiefs of other tribes. When they saw the corpses on the ground, they didn't know what had happened. I asked Faceless to briefly explain the situation, and all the tribal leaders looked at each other.

I first asked Xiao Jian and Long Chuan to set up the lights first, and let Faceless continue to monitor the river. I told the leader of the wolf clan to work hard, and let the people of the wolf clan come over and change the guard now. Then, I told everyone about the tribe I saw guarding, and about the leader of this tribe. I said that, in the current situation, it was clear that the leader of the tribe was no longer fit to stay in this position. In the face of the great enemy, it should not be a momentary negligence to be so lax, but a cold that freezes three feet and is not a day's cold. If it hadn't been discovered in time, it would have almost slipped the enemy out of their noses. Bogda is a rule-talker, and this kind of behavior must be punished.

Soon, the lights came on, and a small searchlight illuminated the river at the mouth of the cave as if it were daylight.

It didn't take long for the leader of the wolf clan to arrive with the people of the wolf clan. They quickly completed the handover and moved into their respective defensive positions. Their swiftness made the leaders of the other tribes stunned.

I said to the leaders of the other tribes, "I hope you will all be like the wolf clan in the future, and keep the Bogda true colors." ”
