Chapter 25: Waiting

"Couldn't it be because of Ivan's own schedule?"

Jiang Yingxue retorted with a smile, as if it was a weightless ridicule.

"Maybe.

Ivan, an old boy, always likes to hide, especially for some things that are not too big, and he likes to pretend to be stupid.

Didn't you notice that Ivan only communicated with the old village chief last night, and did not talk to other villagers, which is absolutely impossible for Ivan, who is exquisite.

You must know that in a remote village like this, everyone basically lives on fishing and hunting, and there is a natural unruliness in the fierceness.

The village chief is only a symbolic leader, whose main role is to quickly unite people in the face of some extreme threats.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Ivan is willing, he can completely contend with the village chief by co-opting some people. ”

Bai Ning's analysis was the Tao, indicating that Ivan was not actually using all his strength, he was deliberately hiding it, and the purpose was unknown.

"According to your argument, the final discussion on the burial of the dead in the village yesterday was not because of the authority of the village chief, but simply because the villagers were not united.

The promise of a little money had already made people's hearts flutter, and in order to maintain his authority, the village chief had to grit his teeth and agree.

Even thinking a little deeper, the money to compensate the deceased does not necessarily end up in the hands of the relatives outside the deceased's village, and is likely to be divided among the people in the village.

From this point of view, it is really some unsympathetic people in the mountains and wilderness. ”

Jiang Yingxue's evaluation of the villagers here has strong own characteristics, and she has always regarded herself as extraordinary and domineering.

"You can think so, but this does not mean that the villagers here are a group of rabble, and those who can survive in this dangerous place to the present day can not have a little of their own unique skills."

"Then we'll see."

Regarding Bai Ning's remarks, Jiang Yingxue also cheered up the spirit, this trip was much more difficult than expected, and the danger did not only come from those giant wild boars.

The morning was quiet and short, and the crowd in the village dispersed after watching for a while, and Ivan and other outlaws woke up one after another.

Based on yesterday's lesson, they didn't dare to drink more, but only drank a few glasses of mouthwash, and ate a lot of meat, with a hateful eating appearance.

Ivan rubbed over with a chirp, and his face seemed to be a little drowsy, and everything seemed to be as usual.

"Don't you want to order a special oriental dish? Why are they all some dry barbecue? ”

Ivan gobbled up fat and thin, and his words were very natural, not caring at all about the eyes that Bai Ning and Jiang Yingxue looked at him.

"Ivan, after eating, you continue to finish your unfinished business."

Bai Ning scratched coldly, and Ivan, who heard the translation, swallowed the food in his mouth, showing a look of wanting to say something.

"My friend, we killed their man by mistake last night, and how can there be any friendship between us?

Isn't this kind of behavior of yours what you Oriental people often call catching ducks on the shelves? ”

Ivan hurriedly refused, as if he had really exhausted his skills and had no control over everything in this place.

"Where did you go with all your majesty last night?

Can one or two mountain villagers stop you?

Or are you prepared to wait until the wild boar herd strikes again and make things irreparable? ”

Ivan is a kind of person, if you don't whip him, he won't move, and he is in some very ambiguous areas of interest disputes.

"If I can do my best, I will naturally do my best, but now it is obvious that there is no possibility."

"Ivan, your turn is only this afternoon, and it's only a few hours.

When someone takes the initiative to contact you in the evening, you will not have achieved an inch of merit at that time, and if you are rewarded for your meritorious deeds in the future, you will only get some hard-earned money.

Is the reward of tens of thousands of dollars really the purpose of your trip? ”

Seeing that Ivan continued to resist stubbornly, or was waiting for the price to sell, Bai Ning threatened a little casually, which made Ivan really speechless.

This Bai Ning, what kind of confidence did he come from, so confident!?

"Okay.

This afternoon I continued to walk around the village. ”

Feeling a little stressed, Ivan jerked a few pieces of meat into his mouth, and hurried away before swallowing.

"You're pretty good at driving the old fox Ivan."

Looking at the back of Ivan leaving, Jiang Yingxue pouted and smiled and sighed.

"It's nothing, but I just know what Ivan wants."

Bai Ning's face didn't matter, he actually didn't like to communicate with people like Ivan, and it was really troublesome to take a step with a whip.

Ivan pretended to be eating and walked around the village, and when he saw people, he nodded and greeted him, but there were few who paid attention to him, and everyone's attitude towards him was wait-and-see and vigilant.

This feeling is much more uncomfortable than the last time he came, and some of his established expectations are difficult to implement in this state of interpersonal relationships.

Ivan, who was extremely uncomfortable, could only go home, not knowing how to verify the key suspects.

Does it really need to be confessed to Bai Ning?

But this Oriental is too cunning, and if he confesses everything, he may be easily discarded like cannon fodder before.

In this kind of team with different ghosts, useless people will be quickly discarded, which is the key to what Ivan has been hiding and tucking.

The value of secrets is either used to grab more benefits for oneself, or to make oneself more important in the hearts of others.

Let the key person feel that he Ivan has value, so that he can be inclined to more survival resources.

In the wilderness where human life is like a mustard, those who do not want to intrigue are dead, and Ivan still wants to live a long life.

"You see, Ivan is back.

Coming back so soon, it seems that it was really just a round of food.

Are you deceiving yourself by swearing that there is hope for a breakthrough here, or is it just to trick Ivan into making him work better for you? ”

Looking at Ivan, who had returned to the camp from other directions, Jiang Yingxue leaned back on the recliner and teased a little casually.

Everything is still in Jiang Yingxue's hands, and her laziness and casualness will not affect any of her authority, but will make people feel jealous and unfathomable.

Just like that, all of Bai Ning's schemes have been seen through by her at a glance.

"Ivan didn't come over at the first time, and the setback is one thing, which is undeniable.

However, he did not come to the first place to brazenly sophistry, or to blame me for talking nonsense, and this subconscious avoidance had already exposed the subconscious thoughts in his heart.

Ivan agreed with my earlier assertions, and waited half-on and half-on the spot for night to fall.

In other words, even if Ivan's connections did not extend to this village, he had already found some clues during his exploration the day before yesterday.

That being the case, then our wait now makes sense. ”

Bai Ning slightly analyzed a few words, which caused Jiang Yingxue to chuckle, as rigorous and logical reasoning as ever, Ivan was just a chess piece under Bai Ning's hands.

"Ivan is good at lying, but the truth seems to be difficult to hide from you.

Do you think there is anything else that will come with you tonight besides a distinguished guest? ”

People like Ivan are not worried, Jiang Yingxue is more worried about the problem of giant wild boars,

Although there were no casualties last night, the situation is still serious, and if the wild boars' offensive continues to intensify, then they may face very heavy casualties.

Or even a group annihilation.

"Maybe.

Tonight, perhaps, was the hardest night to endure. ”

Bai Ning also has a headache for the problem of giant wild boars, no one knows how many giant wild boars exist in this vast primeval forest, and the future variables have become obscure because of this threat.

"Let's fight a defensive battle.

I've asked Aaron to contact Chita City, and a batch of reinforcements will arrive tonight. ”

With the advantage of air transportation, it is no wonder that Jiang Yingxue can be so light and light, all the indifference is based on her own strong strength, this is an eternal truth.

The basic strategy had been formulated, and the three Aaron went directly to Ivan and asked him to hire a group of villagers to start cutting down and building fortifications.

The main purpose of this rudimentary wooden pile was to clear the view around the village and use the obstacles of the wooden pile to divert the attack of the wild boar herd.

In this way, even if they are attacked by the wild boar herd again tonight, they can defend very calmly.

Encouraged by the large amount of money, the hired villagers were very happy, and in addition to earning a lot of timber for nothing, they were also compensated for the loss of their inability to fish and hunt during this time.

Time was fleeting, the view of the outskirts of the village was completely emptied, a large number of wooden piles were placed according to a strict diversion map, and the roar of helicopters in the distance caused all the outlaws to whistle incessantly.

With three successive victories over the boars, and now with plenty of ammunition to spare, the outlaws felt as if they could push the entire forest.

Under Aaron's leadership, a large number of explosives are placed at important traffic intersections, and if some lucky herd of wild boars breaks through to dangerous distances at critical moments, they will be sent into the sky by the explosives here.

After the unloading was completed, the roar of the helicopter faded away, the last warm rays of the sun in the west completely dissipated, and the searchlights were lit up all over the village, allowing the village to experience what it means to be brightly lit for the first time.

The searchlights were secondary, and the campfires were all over the place in the night, and with the blessing of ample ammunition and excellent equipment, all the outlaws seemed very excited, and the camp was full of meat, and the village was still very silent at night, and the doors were closed.

The silence once again turned the realm into two worlds, and the darkness of the shadows was even more terrifying between the campfires.
