Chapter 4 Tracking into the Mountain

Since this is the provincial capital and the airport is full of passengers, Jiang Xiaobei avoided the crowd and walked out of the gate of the airport, and made a phone call to inform Sun Fatzi of the location.

After a while, a pickup truck drove up on the exit road of the airport, and a young man poked his head out.

"You're Brother Xiaobei, aren't you?" the young man asked.

"Well, Sun Fatzi called you here."

"By the way, Brother Sun called me here and said let me hand over the car to you."

The young man got out of the car, looked left and right, and said, "What you want is in the back seat, although this thing is not very serious, but it is best not to let it be seen."

"Don't worry, I know".

"Brother Xiaobei, I'm leaving. ”

Jiang Xiaobei said goodbye to him, there was a bus at the airport, and he was not afraid that he would not be able to go back to the city.

After the young man left, Jiang Xiaobei found a place where the exit and the car could be observed to leave the airport, stopped the pickup truck, and then went to buy some food, sat on the driver, smoked and waited.

Later, seeing that Huang Xingping's flight was almost there, Jiang Xiaobei concentrated on observing the exit.

After a while, Huang Xingping and the four of them walked out of the exit, and Zhang Ye walked in front, Huang Xingping followed the side to open the way, followed by Huang Xingping's bodyguard and the young man.

The four stopped at the exit for a while, and a seven-seater Toyota drove up, and the four got into the car and left.

Jiang Xiaobei sneered, started the pickup and followed behind.

The airport is about thirty kilometers away from the city, and it is only half an hour to drive, Jiang Xiaobei followed them into the city until the car stopped in a rather luxurious hotel.

Then the four of them walked into the hotel, presumably for the night, because they were afraid that they would not be able to keep up in the morning and be exposed, Jiang Xiaobei thought about it and found that they could only get together in the car for one night, or find a place to live at a later time, and rush back here before dawn.

But not long after, I found that Huang Xingping's bodyguard and the young man came out of the hotel, got into the Toyota and left.

"Huang Xingping and the old man are still in the hotel, and they caught the afternoon flight, what are these two people doing?"

Although he was puzzled at the moment, he didn't hesitate, and followed directly, and the two drove all the way to a commercial building.

Seeing that their car was parked outside, Jiang Xiaobei was not afraid of where they could go, so he waited downstairs.

After a short time, the two walked down with two hiking bags on their backs, and tents and pots and bowls hung on the sides of the bags.

"They want to go into the mountains!" Jiang Xiaobei immediately thought of this, the southern province not only has a rare karst landform, but also has a long mountainous area, seeing these things, it is not difficult to guess their actions.

Then the two went to the neighborhood to buy some odds and turns back to the hotel, Jiang Xiaobei also knew their next move, and there was no need to stay outside the hotel.

After that, I drove around the neighborhood, had dinner, and found an outdoor equipment store to buy some essential items.

Large or medium mountaineering bags are a must, otherwise there is no place to put down just dry food and water, Huang Xingping and those people prepared tents, pots and bowls, presumably to stay in an inaccessible place for a lot of time, Jiang Xiaobei didn't want the enemy to follow up when the time came, but he killed himself.

Tents, mats, lighters, spare magnesium strips, flashlights, spare batteries, outdoor knives, and gas tank stove Jiang Xiaobei also prepared, as well as a small package of first-aid medicines, and also bought a jacket and a pair of high-top hiking boots.

After thinking about it, I didn't prepare some objects that may not be used, because it is tracking, so the natural weight should not be too large, so as to avoid the difficulty of hiding or excessive physical exertion and loss.

Then a medium-sized backpack packed these items, Jiang Xiaobei filled the car with gas, and found a hotel not far from Huang Xingping's hotel to stay, and turned the alarm clock up to 5 o'clock tomorrow morning.

There is a computer in the hotel, Jiang Xiaobei logged in and clicked on the dialog box of the second lady and asked her if she was there, but he didn't see anyone talking for a long time, I remember that she was always shouting at night in the past, and I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I used my mobile phone to dial the number given by the second lady.

The mobile phone "beeped" for a long time, but no one responded, Jiang Xiaobei was a little depressed.

At this time, a text message came, "What are you doing, you're busy, if you have something, hurry up"

Jiang Xiaobei replied to her angrily, "What are you busy with, have you found a boyfriend, date?"

"Roll" replied quite quickly this time, but unfortunately there was only one word.

Jiang Xiaobei was very embarrassed, so he didn't pay attention to her anymore, washed up and fell asleep, recuperating for the next day.

In the early morning of the next day, the alarm clock rang, and after some washing, he left the room and drove the pickup back to the hotel where Huang Xingping lived and waited.

At this time, it was not yet dawn, so I could only recuperate in the car and pay attention to the movement of the hotel exit.

The time was just after six o'clock, the sky was only slightly bright, and a group of people walked out, it was Huang Xingping and the four of them, Jiang Xiaobei saw that his drowsy spirit immediately tensed up, and shrank under the driver's seat to avoid being noticed.

Huang Xingping and the four of them drove out of the city, and then turned onto the highway, and Jiang Xiaobei naturally followed.

After driving only twenty or thirty kilometers on the highway, I got off the highway and turned onto a county road, and walked on the county road for nearly an hour.

The air is very fresh along the way, with endless mountain ranges, sugar cane fields planted in the distance, green grass in uncultivated places, and in short, greenery along the way.

After the car was transferred to the county seat, Huang Xingping and the three of them got out of the car and found a restaurant on the side of the road to have breakfast.

Then I also found a roadside stall to pack a breakfast at random, got back to the car, a large piece of pork knuckle meat spread on the pho, and devoured it at the moment, because I was afraid that it would be too late to eat it for a while, and secondly, it was indeed delicious.

Huang Xingping and the others continued to drive down after breakfast, Jiang Xiaobei also followed, the car continued to drive for more than half an hour, entered a national forest park, only to see that the mountains in the past are continuous, the peaks and peaks overlap, and the number of stretches is innumerable, the green vegetation is tightly covered, the towering ancient trees can be seen everywhere, and the clouds and mist are shrouded in the distance.

After getting out of the car, Huang Xingping's bodyguard and the young man put on a mountaineering bag, Huang Xingping was on a trekking pole, only the mysterious old man was empty-handed, Jiang Xiaobei also parked the car, carried the mountaineering bag, and stuffed the crossbow prepared by Sun Fatzi into his clothes, and then Huang Xingping and the four of them went against those tourists, picking the remote path that was inaccessible and drilled into it, Jiang Xiaobei fell closely behind, and the trail was gone, and everyone climbed the stones or walked in the bushes with their feet on the vines.

Because there were bodyguards in front of him holding ** to open the way, Huang Xingping and the old man and young man followed behind, Jiang Xiaobei followed the traces and broken branches at the end, and he was not afraid of losing them, and when he walked until noon, he saw four people sitting and resting from a distance, and the other three looked a little tired, only the old man, still dignified, sitting on a stone and looking very long, made Jiang Xiaobei secretly shocked.

Seeing that Huang Xingping took out pots and pans to cook, Jiang Xiaobei also found a slightly tall crooked neck tree behind the tree, carefully observed the existence of no poisonous insects, snakes and ants nearby, sat down, and found out the steamed buns that he bought by the way after breakfast in the morning.

At this moment, not far behind him, there was the sound of dry fallen leaves crumbling and rubbing and branches breaking.

"Who" Jiang Xiaobei became vigilant, and took out the crossbow that had been loaded with arrows in his arms, and the arrows were also prepared by Sun Fatzi, about twenty or thirty, Jiang Xiaobei played ** when he was a child, and the accuracy was still a little, and he tried to shoot on the road, the sound of the crossbow was very small, and most of the arrows could be pierced into it when shot on the tree.

Seeing no response, and no other voices sounded, Jiang Xiaobei clenched his heavy crossbow, calmed down, and quietly touched it.

I looked around but didn't see anyone, but I saw a hare running past.

"Could it be that I'm making a fuss, it's just a rabbit," Jiang Xiaobei comforted himself.

Then he changed places to rest, and after eating and drinking, he didn't find anything else, so he had to light a cigarette and monitor Huang Xingping and others.

Huang Xingping and others only took half an hour to eat and rest, and then everyone continued to move forward, and Jiang Xiaobei naturally followed closely behind again.

The next afternoon passed in the middle of the journey, and they rested twice, and when night fell, the four men found a clearing and made a fire and set up camp.

Jiang Xiaobei also looked around, and set up a tent behind a clump of dead grass, the dead grass blocked the tent, and if he lit a gas tank to cook in the tent, he was naturally not afraid of being seen.

Boiled water soaked into a paste of compressed biscuit porridge with some beef jerky mustard can also be eaten, the natural taste is not very good, and then lay down, calculated that today about twenty miles of land, already exhausted, a sleep until midnight to wake up, the night in the mountains is naturally quiet noisy, the rustle of leaves rubbing, the sound of insects, from time to time there is also the roar of unknown beasts.

There was also a sound of knocking on wood, sometimes soft, sometimes heavy, and then gone.

"Could it be the sound of birds moving in the middle of the night?" I thought at the moment, and then I got out of the tent and soaked urine under a tree, and looked in the direction of Huang Xingping's group, the fire had not all been extinguished, and it was looming.

Returning to the tent again, Jiang Xiaobei was in a daze and never slept soundly again, and didn't get up until it was almost dawn when the surroundings were faintly visible.

There is a big difference in temperature between day and night in the mountains, and the night is humid, especially in the morning, it is foggy, the tents and trees, the grass and leaves are full of water droplets, breakfast will be about the same as last night, after eating, get out of the tent, plan to stretch.

"Huh" Jiang Xiaobei was startled, and quickly dodged, it turned out that in the camp opposite, although the others had not yet gotten up, the old man Zhang Ye no longer knew when he was already sitting on a piece of bluestone.

"If you can still swallow clouds and spit out fog, what kind of cultivation is it" Jiang Xiaobei was a little curious.

Jiang Xiaobei knows that some health exercises have the habit of making people meditate, and some people who practice Buddhism and Taoism will get up early to meditate, and there are sayings that meditation can "be full of energy without thinking about lewdness, qi without thinking about food, and spiritual feet without thinking about sleep", and can also open up the central channel to enlighten and settle down, which is magical.

Then it wasn't until the sun was more than half out that Huang Xingping got up, and after the trivial things, he got up and continued to walk, Jiang Xiaobei also packed up his tent and backpack and continued to follow.
