Chapter 159: The Mist

The two of them chatted while walking towards the main villa of the manor, and when it was past nine o'clock, Locke looked at Laura who was carrying a single-barreled shotgun and smiled: "This is not like a lady's dress." ”

"It's not like what a 'lady' should do." Laura smiled and looked at Locke, "If I were you, I wouldn't be wearing leather riding boots, but rather tall rain boots with a larger, more breathable rubber cuff." ”

"I rarely sweat." Locke said with a smile.

The two of them packed up and drove to the hunting ground more than ten kilometers away.

In winter, the sky gets dark quickly, so the hunting time is generally half in the morning, half in the afternoon, and lunch is prepared in advance with sandwiches and ham and other foods.

Standing next to the Land Rover with Laura, eating the lunch prepared by Laura, while observing the people who hunted together.

Most of the people who participated in the hunt this time were British aristocrats or big capitalists, and the person who greeted Locke before was a shareholder of the Bank of England.

After a while, a young man of about twenty years old came over with a sandwich and a small steel coffee cup, and greeted him with a smile: "Hey, Laura, is this your new friend?" ”

"Rock Lee, this is Andrew, the Duke's son." Laura casually introduced a sentence and didn't speak.

But Andrew continued to laugh and said: "It's rare to see Laura invite friends over, do you want to compete together to see who catches more grouse?" ”

"It seems that you are very confident in your shooting skills and want to take advantage of the opportunity to get some pocket money?" Locke said with a smile.

"He's just not willing to lose to me last time, so he just wants to get back on the field from Ling." Laura didn't hesitate to pierce the other party.

"I was just unlucky last time." Andrew couldn't help but say that losing a hunt to a little girl was not something to be praised.

"Do you want to do it again?" Laura looked at Andrew with a smirk.

"Forget it, I don't want to bully a little girl." Andrew said the hardest word, then coped with a few words and left.

"You don't seem to like him very much." When Andrew walked away, Locke looked at his back and said.

"It's just a playboy who likes to go to bars and nightclubs." Laura shrugged her shoulders.

Locke is not surprised, although most of the nobles have declined, but some of them still have a lot of assets, although they have no real power, but their status is high enough, what do they usually play when they are full of food and drink.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky began to get dark, and it was drizzling, Laura looked at the prey loaded into the car, and said, "Do you want to hunt wild deer?" ”

"Okay." Locke agreed, grabbed his Remington M700, packed his camping backpack, and drove off together.

glanced at Locke, who basically didn't shoot much all day, because of his size, Laura couldn't pat Locke's shoulder, so she could only pat his arm: "Do you want to shoot first in a while." ”

"I hope it won't be a fool." Locke smiled modestly and came to a hill.

He took out a small telescope from the pocket of his trench coat, handed the telescope to Laura, pointed to the reddish-brown figure under the rocks in the distance, and said, "That should be the fox who came out to find food." ”

Foxes are semi-hibernating animals, sleeping when they have food in winter and coming out to forage when they don't.

Laura glanced over there and nodded, "Are you sure you can get it with one shot, don't let it run away." ”

Foxes are not very easy to hunt, they are usually very vigilant, and it is not easy to find them, let alone hit them, so when people hunt, they usually use hunting dogs to find, chase, surround and then ride horses close to hunt.

Locke estimated the distance, it was only about a hundred meters, smiled and opened the insurance, and pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, and Laura saw that the fox had struggled for a few seconds before falling still, and happily patted Locke's arm:

"It's very good, hit the target, I thought you scientists didn't know how to hunt, and just now you said that you were worried about making a fool of yourself, why didn't you shoot a shot before?"

"Looks like you're going to need a little more time to get to know me." Locke shrugged his shoulders: "I like the culture of the East Country, they don't like to be public. ”

"Looks like you know Dongguo very well." Laura laughed and said, "No wonder my dad said that you know a lot about the history of Asia." ”

"I can speak Mandarin and have read the four famous novels, so I can be regarded as a Chinese expert." Locke smiled and said, "If you have a chance, I can also let you taste the Dongguo cuisine I made." ”

"Then I'm going to find a chance to visit you." Laura said with a grin.

Seeing that it was completely dark, Locke and Laura returned together, but not to Laura's manor, but to attend the evening banquet, which was hosted by Andrew.

Because the hunting has just ended during the day, everyone dresses relatively casually at dinner, and the staple food is today's prey, and the charcoal-grilled grouse meat is tender and delicious.

After dinner, Andrew pulled a group of people to play cards and handed over Locke, but Laura was not interested and didn't know where to run.

Although Las Vegas in the United States is famous all over the world, in fact, the gambling industry in the United Kingdom is also extremely developed, and the restrictions are more relaxed.

An hour later, when Laura returned, she found that the table was full of depressed people, except for Locke, who looked calm, and especially Andrew, who had lost a thousand pounds, enough for him to go to the pub two or three times.

Sending Laura home first, Locke returned to the house on Kensington Garden Street, called up the system, and checked the world mission that had just popped up again.

In the misty world, survive in the fog for three days, the basic reward is 800 potential points, and the more townspeople survive in the supermarket, the more monsters they hunt, the more potential points will be rewarded.

The plot of the fog movie is very simple, it is a small American town that is suddenly shrouded in fog one day.

The film's protagonists, David Raimonton, his son, Billy Raimonton, father and son, are trapped in the town's hypermarket with a group of people.

There are many monsters in the mist that have never been seen before, and according to the movie, these monsters come from other dimensions and are extremely deadly to ordinary people.

And when they were trapped, many people were bewitched by a woman who was chattering with gods, saying that this disaster was a punishment from God.

In fact, the source of this fog seems to have something to do with the military's secret experiments.

In the end, the protagonist took his son and a few people who were not bewitched and chose to rush out to find a way out, and after nine deaths, a group of five people finally rushed into the car and drove out of town.

Wait until the car's fuel tank bottoms out, and at the same time, the roars of countless monsters are heard from the fog.

In order to make the people around him walk peacefully, the protagonist kills his son and three others with the remaining four bullets, and then gets out of the car and rushes into the fog, ready to face the monsters.

But as a result, the fog gradually dissipated at this time, and the protagonist watched the army restore order, and the roar of those monsters was nothing more than the screams of being killed.

So what could have been a happy ending turned into a tragic story.

The plot of the movie is simple, and it doesn't seem to be too difficult, but Locke feels that it is better to be steady, so as not to have any unexpected changes.

"Looks like we're going to have to prepare a little more." Carefully recalling the plot of the fog, Locke thought to himself.
