Chapter 20: The Human-Insect Scuffle

Xu Jiandong gently stroked Xinyu's head, comforted her for a few words, and then turned his head to the big man Lao Hu and the thin man and said, "Lao Hu, Qiangzi!" Let's hurry to the tent and get our weapons, hurry up, I'm afraid it's too late to come............ ”

The big man Lao Hu was puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "Why are you so nervous?" What happened to Lao Xu ............? ”

"Don't ask so much just yet, you'll know in a moment, hurry up and get ready......... Listen to me! Xu Dong said with a solemn expression, not looking like he was joking.

At that moment, the thin man and the big man Lao Hu agreed, and they both entered the tent and prepared their own things.

After seeing the big man Lao Hu and the two of them enter the tent, Xu Jiandong said to Xinyu and Xiaoting again: "Xinyu, you and Xiaoting hide in the tent first, I won't call you, don't come out, ............do you know?" So saying, he and the two of them also entered the tent.

The big man Lao Hu asked Xu Jiandong in wonder while loading the bullets into the magazine: "Old Xu, what are you doing here?" What the hell is going on? Such a flustered ............? ”

Xu Jiandong had already dragged his military backpack over.

"When I was going down the hill just now, I saw some big green insects crawling down the tree poles in the forest behind me, and a few of them were quietly following me, and these guys may be almost there......... now." Xu Jiandong opened his backpack as he spoke.

When the thin man heard the music, he said, "Ouch! I said Brother Xu, what's the matter............ If you don't see each other for a few days, your guts will become smaller, and even a few caterpillars will be scared......... Hehe. ”

Xu Jiandong said to the thin man with a solemn face: "Qiangzi............ We don't have time to make small talk now, so hurry up and get things ready, and get ......... in five minutes! ”

"By the way, Lao Xu, how did you escape death? I think your business can be compiled into the world's strange people directory, and we all thought that you were a strong man and never returned...............? The big man asked while busy with the things in hand.

"Alas! It's really hard to say, I'll tell you when I have time, I don't have time to say this at the moment, I don't think those weird insects are any good kinds, let's be careful............ Xu Jiandong said to the two people.

The big man Lao Hu asked Xu Jiandong, "Old Xu, what did you just say?" Are these bugs following you? How many are there? How big is it? ”

Xu Jiandong shook his head and said: "I don't know how many there are, anyway, there are a lot of them on the tree poles, and there are also in the grass, and they are all the size of kittens............." ”

"Huh?! So big?! Is it a spider or a centipede............? The thin man asked in surprise after listening to what Xu Jiandong said.

"No, I haven't even seen this kind of insect before, maybe it's some different insects............." Xu Jiandong took out the crossbow frame of the special slingshot, opened an aluminum box, took out a few things like bullets, and took out a few metal aluminum alloy arrow shafts without arrows from the arrow bag, and said to the big man Lao Hu and the thin man: "You two help me screw these warheads to the arrow shafts, pay attention to tighten them, and use ............ for a while!" ”

The two of them nodded when they heard this, so they picked up the black warhead and followed Xu Jiandong to install it like him.

"Brother Xu, what kind of bullet are you installing? Why haven't I seen it before............? The thin man asked puzzled as he twisted the bullet into the shaft of the arrow.

"There are some things that you don't usually use, but you'll know in a moment." Xu Jiandong said as he twisted on the shaft of the arrow.

When he had done this, he opened an aluminium box, took out ten of them, round black like grenades, and gave three to each of the thin and large men, and taught them how to use them on the spot, and the remaining four were all in his pocket.

He said to the big man Lao Hu: "Lao Hu, I think you better put the semi-automatic rifle in the tent, it is not much use to use the gun against those insects............ ”

The big man Lao Hu thought about it, what Xu Jiandong said was not unreasonable, using a gun to shoot insects is like a cannon bombarding mosquitoes, and it is an indisputable fact that there will never be more bullets.

Xu Jiandong took off the special slingshot from his waist, removed the leather strip and wrapped it into the backpack, and put the bow and crossbow elastic plate like a card on the vertical arm of the special slingshot, and then used a few screws to tighten and fix them, and then took out an aluminum folding bracket, inserted it into the hole under the grip of the special slingshot, locked it, and at this moment, it has become a very special style arrow crossbow.

Xu Jiandong's move stunned the big man Lao Hu and the thin man, and thought, obediently, is this kid still their buddy Xu Jiandong who gets along day and night? He is simply an expert in weapon design and development.

Took out a long green canvas bag, opened the upper cover, put the arrows in it, leaned back, picked up a special arrow crossbow, and installed a black aluminum alloy strong light flashlight to the lower part of the front bracket of the bow crossbow, this flashlight is different from the shape of the wolf's eye flashlight, there are grooves on it, easy to load and unload.

Xu Jiandong, the big man Lao Hu and the thin man walked out of the tent one after another.

The big man Lao Hu held a wolf-eyed flashlight in front of him, while the thin man and Xu Jiandong followed behind, slowly groping their way forward in the direction of the woods on the large gentle slope to the south.

Xu Jiandong and the three of them walked up the gentle slope to the south, and the flashlight column kept shaking, searching for all the suspicious targets in the grass under their feet.

The rain had stopped, and there was a glimmer of light around the sky, and it seemed that in another hour or so, the sky would be clear.

The grass was so wet from the rain that it made the shoes and trouser legs of the three men wet and uncomfortable, but the three of them were not on this mind, for their eyes were focused on the danger that would arise in the grass ahead at any time.

Xinyu and Xiaoting were inside the tent, looking nervously outside through the two mosquito-proof screens.

"Sister Xinyu, now, Brother Xu will not die in a big disaster, and there will be a blessing in the future, I can't imagine that his life is really big.........?" Xiaoting glanced at Xinyu and said.

"Yes, I didn't expect him to be able to come back to life, this is really a miracle, so who saved him ............?" Xinyu said puzzled.

Xiaoting said: "Sister Xinyu, do you think it was really the fat brother who saved him............?" ”

Xinyu still looked at the backs of the three people outside, shook his head and said, "Maybe, but the fat man himself has become like that, how can he be saved?" Besides, the fat man doesn't know much about medicine, so I always think it's weird, a little incredible. ”

"Brother Xu, what are the three of them looking for? Is there really any big bug............? Xiao Ting looked at it, and suddenly asked Xinyu.

Looking at the backs of the three people, Xinyu said: "I think so, didn't you listen to what your brother Xu just said, did he see a lot of strange insects when he walked down that big gentle slope?" These bugs must be dangerous, or he wouldn't have let us both hide in the tent. ”

Xiao Ting thought about it, so she didn't speak again, but she looked nervously at the backs of the three people outside.

Xu Jiandong, the big man Lao Hu and the thin man searched every inch of grass on the gentle slope, and slowly and carefully walked towards the edge of the forest.

Looking at the movements of the three people, it is very similar to the sappers clearing a landmine, carefully and meticulously, as if they will step on a mine at any time.

The thin man and the big man each took a machete, which was at least more lethal and combat-effective than the half-cut semi-automatic rifle, but it depended on what you were dealing with.

The three of them, two aluminum alloy wolf-eye flashlights, and two scattered white beams of light carefully searched and searched among the grass.

When he was still more than twenty meters away from the forest in front of him, Xu Jiandong waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to stop.

The two bright flashlights were like two dazzling swords, flashing back and forth among the grass in the dark night.

The big man Lao Hu shone a strong flashlight on the grass and the forest.

The forest was not very high, but it was dense enough that even a flashlight could pass through it.

"When I came over just now, the big bugs were lying there, and you both kept your eyes wide open, and beware ............of anything that could move in the grass." Xu Jiandong lowered his voice and reminded the big man Lao Hu and the thin man.

"Brother Xu, what does that insect you said look like...............?" The thin man asked in a low voice.

Xu Jiandong used the tactical spotlight on the arrow crossbow to look for it among the bushes, and said in a low voice: "Let you see it, I guarantee that you will never forget the appearance in this life!" ”

“……………？” The thin man was speechless for a moment.

"Lao Xu, look! Are they what you just said?! …………… Oh my! What the fuck is this?! The big man suddenly scolded, and while scolding, he shone a flashlight on the grass in the forest with a strong flashlight.

In the grass between the trees, I don't know when, black-green and huge insects appeared.

These insects have a large head, triangular in shape, some resembling praying mantises, but only one eye, a thin neck, a slender waist and a large belly, and a pair of short red wings on their backs.

The wings were a little superfluous, because their proportions did not allow them to fly, and were at best ornaments and accessories.

Four long barbed green feet with yellow markings supported the ground, and two more hooked forefeet were folded up and hugged to their chests like praying mantises.

The thin man snatched the bright flashlight of the big man's wolf eyes and shone at the grass and the insect and said, "Isn't this the one-eyed praying mantis?" It's just that it's bigger, what's so scary, you guys are waiting here......... Look how I clean it up! After saying that, he stepped forward and slashed at the nearest one-eyed monster insect with the American dogleg hunting knife in his hand.

'Click! The sound was extremely uncomfortable, as if it had been cut on a sugar cane, but the hardness could not be compared, perhaps the steel edge of this iron sharpening knife was too good, anyway, I didn't feel that it was too difficult.

The insect in the grass in front of him was cut in two, and the upper and lower bodies of the insect were still struggling desperately, as if two different insects were struggling desperately, and the yellow liquid like blood sprayed out, and as soon as it fell on the blade of grass, it immediately made a slight noise, and at the same time there was a puff of green smoke, like a liquid like sulfuric acid, which burned the tender green grass leaves to wither and turn yellow in a blink of an eye.

I only saw the thin man stick out his tongue and scolded: "Damn, this worm looks like it can't be provoked, there is acidity in their blood, Brother Xu, I think we should withdraw as soon as possible.........!" ”

Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu also saw the situation just now, and of course they already had a plan in their hearts.

Among the green grass, there are a lot of dark green things that are ready to move at this moment.

Xu Jiandong and the three of them looked fixedly, and it turned out that there were many such big insects lurking in the grass, and at this time, they all poked out the evil head with one eye and stared at the three people in front of them.

At this moment, the insects suddenly shook and rubbed against the pair of short red wings that seemed useless, flapping their wings in unison, making a loud noise like crickets, and for a time the sound shook the wilderness, and it was transmitted for a long time, this sound wave was no less than a high-pitched alarm, one higher than the other, and it was spread farther and farther.

Xu Jiandong was shocked and said secretly: "It's not good .........!" These birds and bugs are making noises to alert their fellow ......... to the rescuers. ”

Turning his head to the big man Lao Hu and the thin man, he said, "Lao Hu, Qiangzi!" Let's get out of ............ The bugs are moving reinforcements! As soon as the words fell, the three men turned and ran in the direction of the tent.

From the big man Lao Hu found the strange bug, to the thin man wielding a hunting knife and cutting it into two pieces, and then to hearing a strange chirp later, all this was clearly seen by Xinyu and Xiaoting who were hiding in the tent, and they couldn't help but be shocked that their faces were as white as paper, and after seeing Xu Dong and others retreat from the gentle slope, they already knew how dangerous these uninvited guests in front of them were
