Chapter 49 Field Battles
Three days later, Beidou stood at the entrance of the cave again, thinking about his next step. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info there is no peace outside at all in the past three days, and Beidou has extinguished the bonfire several times, just to avoid unnecessary incidents. In the past three days, those who got the cold corn flowers are on the way back, and this is the most treacherous place on the way, and those who want to get something for nothing are staying here.
In the past three days, those who have returned from afar have become more and more cautious from the initial team of four or five people, and now at least ten people in a team, some of them have entered this evil water countless times, and each time they will always be killed by the people who are guarding here and have to retreat, they are lucky, and the unfortunate ones have stayed in the bad water forever.
Beidou saw countless ruined teams staggering out of the bad water and retreating into the distance, they couldn't go back! These people have enough cold corn flowers, maybe Beidou can get a piece of the pie.
There was a rancid smell of corpses wafting in the dense forest, and Beidou still felt sick to his stomach even though he stood on a high place. Most of them have been out for a few days, and supply has become a common problem, and the most important thing is of course water, and there are only a few fresh water resources in this poor mountain and bad water, and if you are lucky enough to find it, there may be only one, but you can't enjoy it, because there are people stationed there, and they are all large enough teams.
The source of food is also a problem, but there are always such creatures in the jungle, and roasting them over a fire is a meal of meat, and of course it takes hours to clean, so it is acceptable.
At this time, if there is any gain, it is the packages of the two people captured in the last battle, and the supply without them for the past three days is a problem.
Beidou now has two guns and eight rounds of ammunition in his hands, and this kind of thing, which is strictly forbidden to be owned by private individuals in the camp, almost everyone who leaves the camp has one hand, so when he thinks about it when he comes out of the camp, it is really shabby and pitiful! He now has a new understanding of that sentence, how deep the water in the camp is.
Is killing and looting to strengthen one's own strength?
How many people think the same way?
Beidou sorted out his thoughts, his injuries have not yet recovered, and there are many things to do, such as washing clothes, preparing some dried meat and water, staying here all the time, he should be able to grab some cold corns, it seems that this cave will live for a while.
Beidou decided to explore the terrain in the vicinity, and if he was lucky, he could find freshwater resources that had not been discovered. He was going to grope his way along the rock wall, and before going out, he buried the extra supplies in the ground outside the cave, so that no one else could get it, even if he couldn't go back to the cave.
Along the way, Beidou has seen four battlefields, more than 30 corpses, among which there are many first-grade cultivators, and in the camp, the instructor is only second-grade.
Beidou looked at the phantoms of the swaying trees around him, and was two more vigilant.
It's still lonely to go on the road alone, after all, people are social animals, this place is naked and exposed to the law of the jungle, if there is a team formed by a trustworthy person, it will be much better when playing strength. Everything here is about strength, for example, entrenched in the largest known freshwater resources is a team of more than ten people, among them there may not be a second-grade guy, but even if there are third-grade powerhouses here, they dare not argue with it.
If they can dominate the freshwater resources, then whatever resources they see, they can be wrapped in their pockets.
But a person also has a person's benefits, such as freedom, relaxation.
Beidou followed the direction and was close to the place where the two strange beasts died, and driven by curiosity, Beidou decided to take a look.
Beidou remembered this, he stepped over the two corpses that he had killed with his own hands, and further he didn't see the two strange beasts, but he saw more than ten corpses there.
When Beidou got closer, he felt that something was wrong, what was the situation? Two huge beasts were cut into more than ten pieces, scattered on the ground, blood stained the whole land black and red, Beidou used a knife to flick on a piece of meat, and noticed that this piece of meat had been poked and chopped up, as if rummaging for something.
There was nothing of value except for the corpse being a piece of meat, but Beidou saw the blood stains extending out, he looked down and checked the footprints, the steps were not only chaotic but too close, this person should have been injured and fled in that direction.
In the dark, Beidou looked around again and found a lot of footprints, all of whom were going in the same direction.
That should be the final winner of the two teams in Beidou's memory, and after their tragic victory, they went in this direction, and Beidou decided to go over and take a look.
The ground is getting steeper and steeper, the terrain is gradually climbing, and after walking out of the eight-kilometer road, you can already faintly see a raised leyline, which is a scene that can only be seen when you use a searchlight to shine into the distance, Beidou immediately turned off the lights, and it is not a good thing to expose your position.
It is impossible for a large team to live in a place as small as Beidou's cave, and it is not easy to find a place to camp in the wild forest, and Beidou thinks that if he is them, then this steep slope will be an excellent place to stay. Condescendingly, there are craggy rocks as obstacles, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
When there were still 800 meters to go up the steep slope, Beidou stopped, and if it was expected, it would be dangerous to go any further, and these people would not let a stranger approach their camp casually.
Beidou didn't go back immediately, but walked around this steep slope from a distance, and after the searchlight shone, he could faintly see that the back of the steep slope was a steeper terrain, which could be called a cliff, and if anyone lived on the steep slope, then this side was the only way for them to come down.
There are still traces of large-scale human activities in this area, and the activities are very frequent, and Beidou followed the direction of the most dense footprints and found a freshwater resource.
With so many footprints and signs of such frequent activity, it doesn't look like there are only a dozen people? Where did the rest go?
Beidou continued on the road, and after a while, when he pushed aside the bushes in front of him, a camp was revealed in front of him, there were eight tents here, and there were countless bonfires, Beidou suddenly shivered, was the sound of pushing away the bushes too loud?
Beidou retreated from the bushes again, and under the cover of the bushes, he walked another fifty meters around this camp, and the more he looked, the more frightened he felt, the people in these tents seemed to be gone, and there were no vigilant people, and when the door of the tent was lifted by the wind, he could see that it was really empty inside.
Beidou didn't dare to get closer, what if there was someone in the tent? Even if there was only one, he would be regarded as an enemy if he walked up like this, and immediately became a live target, and he circled, trying to find more clues to explain the whereabouts of the people here.
The tents were quite far apart, and it was supposed that different teams were stationed together, and Beidou had never heard of such a force having so many people under his command. Maybe there is really no one left to guard, if it is people from different forces who go on the road in order to hunt a certain target, then in the end, if the target is really harvested, it will be the turn of the various forces to play, and only the side with enough strength can get the spoils, so every member will go with the team.
But Beidou still didn't want to get any closer to see if anyone was left in the tent.
He walked around the place for another hundred meters, and he saw a messy land, the weeds were trampled and could not be lifted, and even the lower bushes were lying on the ground, and this scene led all the way to the distance, and Beidou knew that this was where the people in this camp went.
Following this trampled and somewhat broken road, Beidou walked nearly two kilometers.
There are not many people, maybe only one person!
From the sound of footsteps, there is indeed only one person!
The man walked with great falls, undisguised his tracks, and the force he stepped on was no different from that of a normal walk, with the sound of a clattering sound under his feet, whether it was a wooden branch or a broken leaf.
Beidou and this person were still some distance apart, the bushes cut off the sight of the two, and no one could see anyone, he stopped first, and this person immediately stopped.
This shrub should be the last obstacle between Beidou and his opponent, Beidou approached softly and pushed away the bush. The wind behind the bushes is very cold, and it is especially clear when it blows on the face, and the skin on the face is very sensitive to the perception of heat and cold, but the wind is not the coldest, and there is a needle-like stinging pain mixed with the wind, like a needle scratching this and that on the face.
Beidou wasn't sure if this was true, because he had never had such an experience, and he still looked for his target step by step.
This shot just came! When Beidou was already on full alert, it appeared from the front without warning! The bullet of a gunpowder firearm could not be said to come suddenly, after all, at the speed of the bullet, how could ordinary people react?
For Beidou, it was really sudden, and at the moment when the muzzle of the gun was flashing, he noticed that there was a gun hidden in the bush under the tree!
Beidou felt pain, so he moved his head slightly.
After the gunshot, Beidou's mind was completely blank for a moment, and the first feeling he felt when he came back to his senses was the hot feeling on his face, the bullet did not touch his face, but the strong air flow still scratched his face, leaving burn marks.
It's a rifle! It's much more powerful and range-capable than a pistol, so it has such a strong airflow. If he's an experienced hunter, the situation is a bit scary.
Beidou's first reaction was to shoot at the bush, out of revenge, but he thought so one moment, and the next moment he only had the thought of dodging, and it was his body's instinct that prompted him to think so.
He just felt cold on his face, why was it cold?
Since the enemy fired the first shot, there will be a second shot right away, and this thought is like a fire falling into dry firewood, which cannot be extinguished. The subconscious of his brain told him that the second shot was coming soon, so he felt cold on his face.
Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. What's more, he just brushed his face with the bullet of death, how can there be any reason not to be afraid of guns?
Beidou quickly shrank back, and just as he moved, another shot passed a few centimeters from his skin.
By the time Beidou retreated to safety, the man had already fired three shots. The three shots were all attached to Beidou's body. Beidou was wheezing, and he was drenched in cold sweat.
