Chapter 678 Emergencies!

It got even colder in the mountains and forests in the early morning, and I could hear nothing except the howling cold wind.

Moreover, the northwest wind swept up the snow on the ground, seriously affecting the sight of several people.

If Li Yi and others were not familiar enough with this mountain forest, it would be easy to get lost.

Several people returned along the way they came, and recovered more than ten wire sleeves along the way. They found nothing and were somewhat disappointed.

At this moment, there was a sudden "thumping" and "thumping" sound from the front, and the experienced Yongzi immediately said: "There is a prey caught, and the sound sounds like a hare!"

As he spoke, he ran forward quickly.

After running about ten meters, everyone saw a fat wild rabbit struggling in a bush.

I saw it jumping around in the bushes, but because its neck was trapped, the more it struggled, the tighter the trap became.

Seeing someone coming, the hare became more anxious and jumped more happily.

However, the condoms were made of thin wire, and their flexibility and strength were beyond what an ordinary hare could break free from. After a few moments, the hare lost its ability to move due to suffocation.

Yongzi immediately stepped forward and gave Rabbit a hammer on the head, sending Brother Rabbit on his way.

Then he immediately took out the sharp knife he carried with him to bleed it. Otherwise, the rabbit meat would smell like blood and would be very unpalatable.

After bleeding the rabbit, the group continued moving forward.

After walking a few steps, I saw a mess in the snow in front of me. When I got closer, I saw that another hare had been lassoed.

It's a pity that I arrived a little late. The rabbit was already croaked and frozen into a hard stick.

For this kind of prey, everyone will not waste time bleeding or anything. There is no point in it. Let’s deal with it later when we get back!

After collecting the prey and the wire harness, the group continued to move forward!

Since the village has almost dealt with all the wolves near this mountain forest in the past few years, hares, pheasants, and foxes are all over the place, and there is simply no way to trap them all.

In this way, everyone walked and harvested all the way. In less than an hour, they harvested 8 hares, two yellow foxes and 5 pheasants. It was a full harvest.

However, just when everyone was planning to continue their efforts and collect the remaining seventy or eighty condoms in one go, the sharp-eyed Zhang Ziqiang suddenly whispered: "Be careful, there is fire ahead!"

Upon hearing Zhang Ziqiang's reminder, everyone stopped immediately, then extinguished their flashlights and looked in the direction of Zhang Ziqiang's finger.

Sure enough, there were faint signs of fire dancing a few hundred meters away, which was particularly conspicuous in the jungle at night.

Yongzi immediately frowned and said, "That idiot is lighting a fire in the forest at this time. Aren't you afraid of lighting up the entire forest?"

"No, let me go talk about this bastard thing. If the forest is set on fire, our village will be in trouble!"

This mountain forest is the main collection area for firewood in the village. Every summer and autumn, the village organizes members and people to go to the forest to pry branches. They use large shovels to shovel off all the excess branches and leaves on the trees.

This will not only ensure the healthy growth of trees, but also provide people with firewood, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

If a wildfire breaks out, the village will have no firewood next year. This is a big deal!
However, just when Yongzi was about to go over to negotiate, he was pulled back by Li Yi.

"What's wrong, Brother Yi?"

"Don't be reckless. You know who is lighting a fire in the woods in the middle of the night. If you encounter bandits, wouldn't you put yourself in it?" Li Yi said in a deep voice.

"Brother Yi, there are no bandits these days. Most of them are just like us, chasing rabbits!" Yongzi said.

"I don't think so. Most of the rabbit traps are locals. How many of the locals don't know that you can't make fire in the mountains?"

While speaking, Li Yi looked worriedly at the direction of the fire.

If he remembered correctly, that direction was exactly where the general's tomb was, which gave him an ominous premonition.

As far as he knew, the general's tomb in the previous life was indeed stolen, but the specific time of the robbery was unknown. In short, people discovered that there was a general's tomb in the back mountain after 85, and the general's tomb was stolen at that time. It's been several years.

Fortunately, when the province sent an archaeological team to conduct rescue excavations on the general's tomb, they found that although the tomb was severely robbed, one of the ear chambers where the funerary objects were stored was completely intact. Saved.

Archaeologists discovered a large amount of gold, silver and other buried treasures in the ear chamber. One of the swords inlaid with precious stones was identified as a first-class cultural relic and became the treasure of the provincial museum.

The robbery of the general's tomb in the previous life has never been solved, and the tomb robbers have never been arrested. Therefore, how many cultural relics were lost in the general's tomb back then has become a mystery.I found someone lighting a fire here late at night, and the place where the fire was lighting had just been the general's tomb, which had to make Li Yi doubt the identity of these people.

"Brother Yi, what should we do now?" Yongzi asked.

Li Yi thought for a while and said: "Extinguish all our flashlights, and then quietly crawl over to see the situation. If you are really driving up the mountain, then warn the other party. If not, it depends on the situation!"

"it is good!"

Then Li Yi said again: "Little dog, you watch these prey here and wait for us to come back!"

"it is good!"

Then, the other three people left all the prey and the recovered wire sheaths and other things to the puppy, and then moved towards the place where the fire was lit.

Li Yi and Yongzi are originally mountain children, and they are both very experienced in how to travel in the mountains and forests.

Zhang Ziqiang, on the other hand, is a special service agent trained by the state with a lot of money. Their ability is undoubtedly beyond doubt, so the three of them quickly and quietly reached the place where the fire was lit and hid under a big tree where several people were hugging each other. behind the tree.

By the light of the fire, the three of them quickly saw clearly the situation in the forest.

The fire was burning in a pit. There were five or six strong men sitting around the pit. They were warming themselves by the fire and chatting with each other.

Surrounding these people were not only shovels, pickaxes and other tools, but also a large amount of newly dug soil.

More importantly, they also saw that there were many guns placed beside the fire, including rifles with bayonets and semi-automatic rifles, and their firepower was not weak.

Seeing this scene, Yongzi suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

Although he also had a gun in his hand, it was only a single-barreled shotgun, mainly used to deal with wild boars and wolves.

But those people not far away were holding real trolls, especially those semi-automatic rifles, which were even more powerful. There was no comparison between the two.

What's more important is that these people came deep into the woods with guns in the middle of the night and brought so many tools with them. It didn't look like they were doing anything good.

If I don't listen to Brother Yi and come out rashly, I might really be silenced.

Immediately, Yongzi looked at Li Yi with eyes filled with gratitude.

At this moment, Zhang Ziqiang pointed to the two people in the left and right directions.

Li Yi and Yongzi looked in the direction of Zhang Ziqiang's finger and were surprised to see two people standing on a hill not far from the fire pit, one on the left and one on the right.

The two men actually had guns in their hands and were walking back and forth while staring at the forest, apparently on sentry duty.

After seeing this scene, even Li Yi himself broke out in a cold sweat.

He had a hunch that he would probably encounter a tomb robber today, and he would probably be a professional.

After all, it's winter, and tomb robbing in the cold weather requires not only strength, but also considerable professional skills. Ordinary tomb robbers really don't have this ability.

And once you meet these people head-on, the possibility of being silenced is very high.

Fortunately, they were careful enough just now. They were crawling when they came and turned off their flashlights.

Otherwise, it would be easy to be discovered.

Once discovered by these gun-wielding guys, the consequences would be disastrous, and they might become the targets of the other party's hunting.

Thinking of this, Li Yi immediately waved his hand and made a retreat gesture towards Zhang Ziqiang and Yongzi.

Now this situation is far beyond what they can solve, so they should withdraw first.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Ziqiang signaled Li Yi and Yongzi to withdraw first. He wanted to deal with the traces left just now.

Li Yi knew that Zhang Ziqiang was a professional, so he didn't say much and immediately took Yongzi and returned the same way.

But Zhang Ziqiang crawled on the ground and wiped away all the footprints on the snow with branches. When the wind blew and the snow fell, nothing could be seen.

In this way, Zhang Ziqiang retreated while cleaning up the traces. It took him more than half an hour to join Li Yi and others.

After reuniting, the few people did not dare to stay where they were. They took the prey and walked out of the forest.
