death row

Chapter 6 The Strange Old Witch
I really didn't expect that we would be prisoners just after the mission started, it was still too careless.

When he disarmed, Gou Changqing said with a livid face, "Are you those mercenaries?"

Scarface looked at him with some surprise and said: "Listen to this, you are here because of me?"

"What about our people? Hand him over."

Scarface exhaled a puff of smoke and said mockingly: "Why do I feel that the person being pointed at by the gun is me." After saying a word, his subordinates laughed.

Lu Yufan said coldly: "It's too cold here, be careful to freeze your tongue when you open your mouth."

As soon as he said that, the person who pointed the gun at him turned the gun butt and stabbed him hard in the stomach. Lu Yufan fell to the ground clutching his stomach. Gou Changqing and Lei Zhen immediately pointed at the scarred face and yelled in unison, so there were more guns. Aim at him.

This stab was not light, and Lu Yufan lay on the ground panting for a long time before he could barely sit still. He sneered and said, "Damn it, give me back the gun. It doesn't take much. I only need five bullets to cover you."

"It's awesome, let's talk about it later. Why did you enter this no-man's land? Is it really just for a soldier?" Scarface said with narrowed eyes.

"Just to fuck your mother." Lu Yufan said, clutching his stomach.

The smile on Scar's face disappeared suddenly, and the bull-like eyes showed a fierce light: "Toast, don't eat fine wine, hold him down." Immediately, three strong young men went up and strangled their necks. We pressed Lu Yufan on the snow with our arms, and we rushed up to help subconsciously. Lei Zhen was knocked out by the butt of a gun, Gou Changqing was kicked hard on the snow, and I was also punched in the face, dizzy and fell to the ground .

Scarface pulled out a dagger from his boots, walked up to Lu Yufan and said, "Let's see if it's your mouth or my knife."

"Fuck your mother, I've got the guts to plant me, or I'll have to fuck you." Lu Yufan was tough enough, and he was actually more angry than Scarface at this point.

Seeing him grinning and raising the knife to cut Lu Yufan's face, although my mind was full of confusion, I still yelled: "Don't do it, I will tell you about this mission." I wanted to stand up, but my legs couldn't bear it. I didn't make much effort, struggled a few times and then gave up. The dazed figure with Scar's face came up to me and said, "Well, why are you here?"

"We are here to search and rescue the missing soldier. As long as you hand him over to us, we will retreat immediately and will not hinder your work."

After hearing what I said, he laughed loudly and said: "There is really a sensible one." After saying that, he made a gesture, and two mercenaries pressed a man and walked in front of me. At this time, I regained consciousness and saw this man clearly. Not tall, very thin, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a childish face, that is, a half-grown child, he looked at me with a face full of fear, as if he was about to cry.

I tried to nod my head twice and said, "Are you one of the five?"

"Yes, my name is Lu Xusheng."

"Okay, we're here to take you back. You're safe from now on." I think he's just a child, and I use words to stabilize his emotions. This is also a psychological encouragement method for the rescued during special search and rescue.

For some reason, the stern expression on Scar's face suddenly relaxed a little, but he still said: "The initiative is not in your hands now, and you have no ability to promise his safety."

"I have this ability."

"You can't even guarantee your own safety, let alone someone else's."

"I believe you will not hurt us, because you are also a soldier. We are not targeting anyone in this military operation. We are just looking for missing comrades. You also have comrades. You should understand our feelings." I figured it out, and every word I said made sense and made him unable to refute.

Maybe he was really "moved" by me, but he frowned tightly and didn't speak for a long time, and suddenly there was no sound in the noisy forest.

Just when I was about to take this opportunity to continue with a few more provocative words to promote his decision to release him, the ghostly old thing suddenly let out a sharp scream, and then raised the walking stick with the skull stuck high above his head, Jumping and jumping, I don't know what I was muttering in my mouth, but my heart moved: Is this a wizard?
Because of "work", I often go to and out of some high mountains, so I have dealt with many aborigines. Most of these people maintain a part of their primitive life. Wizard culture is one of the very important ones. In the eyes of these aborigines In fact, wizards are messengers who know the two worlds of yin and yang. They can communicate directly with ghosts and gods, and convey the news to the world, but the question is, can people live in an area with extremely harsh natural climate like Lily?
I immediately denied my idea, because the area where people live must have many factors, and none of these factors are touched by lily. There are only three things here: white hair wind, snowstorm and black pine tree, and there is at most one "special product" Just too many weird things.

How do people survive in such a place?

As the wizard danced, I discovered a new situation, that is, there were bells on his ankles and wrists, no matter the shape or the sound, they were exactly the same as the bells hanging on the dead body at the entrance of the black pine forest. Shocked, is this the person who wrote the "warning slogan"?
The old wizard danced for a long time before stomping his feet and stopped. He pointed at us with his crutches and said with a smile: "You people broke into God's forbidden zone, desecrated God's forest, and punished you all to death. You never return." The voice was sharp and piercing like a night owl, and everyone who heard it felt numb.

A mercenary pointed his gun at him and said, "If I die badly, I will be the first to take you to be buried with me." The old wizard just let out an ugly "hehe" laugh at his threat, as if he didn't care about this man at all. Looking at it, he pulled the bolt of the gun in a hurry and was about to shoot, but Scarface held his gun barrel: "Don't mess around, it's not the time yet." The man gasped for a few breaths , went to the side to smoke.

Scarface looked at the four of us one by one and said, "Which one of you is the leader?"

Gou Changqing said coldly: "Me."

He nodded calmly and said: "I don't want to cause trouble, so I try to make sure I don't hurt you, but I can't let you go now, everyone is considerate to each other, how about making money with harmony?"

"Why did you come here?" Gou Changqing asked.

Scarface said calmly: "You are not my leader, so don't speak to me in such a tone. If you are the leader, you must ensure that your subordinates and us can live in peace. It will be you who are really going to fall out." After a while, he said again: "Since no objection has been raised, I will take it as your acquiescence, and this deal will take effect immediately." With a wink, everyone put away their guns, and the missing soldier also walked In front of me, looking at him, he was about to cry. I whispered, "Don't let yourself appear weak at this time. You have a chance to tell what happened to your comrades-in-arms, but it's definitely not now." Very sad.

"Okay, to celebrate our acquaintance, there happens to be a roast bear outside the woods, let's drink and eat meat to live up to this feast."

Although I ate a generation of compressed biscuits and chocolate, my stomach was still growling with hunger, and I wanted to eat it for a long time, so a group of people came outside the forest and began to share the steaming roast bear meat.

At this point, everyone's emotions have stabilized, and they are also fallen people in the world. When the old wizard saw that we ate bear meat, his weird and vicious expression was replaced by a goosebumps smile, and he asked one by one: " Is the bear meat delicious? Is it delicious?" Everyone thought he was crazy, but no one paid him any attention.

Just as we were enjoying our meal, a white shadow sprang out of the forest, and rushed into the crowd with lightning speed. It turned out to be an adult male wolf. It bit Scarface's shoulder and tore it forcefully, and then sprang out of the forest one after another. Several wild wolves got close to them in an instant, and they had no time to shoot, so they could only confront them with daggers or even burning sticks. However, we were caught in the middle and were protected from harm. Only the weapons were taken away, and there was no way to help them.
