Chapter 200 Yellow Hair
Between Wushanao and Hongwa Village is a vast expanse of primitive dense forest, a territory not yet regulated by the government and unknown to the outside world. No one knows if there are any undocumented wild villages along this stretch of road.
But Ma Liu insisted that the organization asked him to take this route, and it would definitely work.
Otherwise, they would not have dared to choose this path.
Therefore, it was indeed unbelievable that someone suddenly launched a sneak attack in such a deep mountain forest.
After all, they take turns on duty at night, mostly to prevent wild animals.
At this moment, someone was attacking him. Su Tong could only think of two... no! Three possibilities.
One is the villagers of Wushanao. After all, the team that was looking for medicine for Ge Baogen had not returned when they set out, so it is not impossible that they might meet each other.
The second is other gangs that received notifications from the organization. The subordinates of this group are said to be spread all over the country. There are only three or two routes to Xiaoya Village surrounded by deep mountains. It is not ruled out that there are other "traveling" partners.
The third possibility... This possibility is not too great, but it is not impossible... That is, it could be Ma Liu's accomplice. Although Ma Liu has been arrested and Ma Liu's boss Yi Ge has been shot dead, it cannot be ruled out that there are some members of the gang who have escaped the net.
Of course, if he is really Ma Liu's accomplice, no matter his purpose is to rescue or... to silence him, the current situation is very serious.
While analyzing, Su Tong took out the dagger from his calf and crawled out of the tent.
Zhou Jin turned around and saw Su Tong, then turned around and moved closer.
"Sister, please go into the tent. We are here to help you."
Before Su Tong could answer, he heard a crisp "click" sound not far away, which was obviously the sound of a branch breaking.
"who?"
Lin Li shouted softly, moved his body, and quickly chased after him.
"Don't chase far—"
Chen Yunfeng shouted, and at the same time, he pulled out the gun with his hand that was supporting his lower back.
"clear--"
Lin Libian answered as his figure disappeared into the darkness.
In an unfamiliar environment, with no idea of the enemy's situation and our own, we were afraid that the other side would divert their attention.
Zhou Jin's expression froze, "Don't go anywhere! I'm going to help Lin Li!" He turned around and quickly chased after them.
The captain had repeatedly told him before they set off that they were not allowed to act alone unless under special circumstances. He kept this in mind and he couldn't let Lin Li be left alone.
Su Tong flashed in front of Ma Liu, and together with Zhao Xin and Chen Yunfeng surrounded Ma Liu on three sides. Ma Liu was still sleeping soundly and had no idea of the situation outside.
Zhao Xin looked at Su Tong who was standing next to him with a dagger in his hand. His lips moved, but he wanted to say something but didn't open his mouth. He just walked forward a few steps silently, blocking Su Tong behind him.
He knew that Su Tong's accompanying was one of the conditions proposed by Ma Liu and our side. Although he was surprised that his superiors would agree to Ma Liu's conditions and allow Su Tong to join the action team as an exception, it was a fact that Su Tong was a rural girl who had not received any special training. In addition, the captain's repeated instructions before departure meant that Su Tong and Ma Liu were undoubtedly the key protected persons.
Seeing this, Chen Yunfeng also stepped forward.
In their hearts, they had already silently classified Su Tong and Ma Liu as the two people with the lowest combat effectiveness. Now that there were only two of them left here, they had to protect these two people at all costs and nothing could happen.
Su Tong looked at the status of the two people, silently stepped back to Ma Liu, and sat down next to him.
There was only one question in his mind. The two groups of people who had chased out had not returned. If the other party's target was Ma Liu, now was the best time, whether to rescue him or to silence him.
Defending Ma Liu is the most important thing.
Whether her dagger was pointing at Ma Liu or protecting Ma Liu depended on the other party's intention.
Su Tong sat down next to Ma Liu calmly.
Zhao Xin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Tong was very cooperative.
Several people remained alert and did not speak.
Except for the sound of the burning fire and the howling wind in the dense forest, everything around was quiet.
Soon, Su Tong realized something was wrong.
She seemed to hear a rustling sound, intermittent, nearby.
When I listened carefully, I only heard the sound of wind, as if it was just an illusion.
There was a mountain wall behind where Su Tong was sitting, a campfire not far in front, the oilcloth on which everyone had just slept on the left, a few luggage backpacks against the wall, and the small tent where she slept on the right.
They were not far away, only about five or six meters away. Zhao Xin and Chen Yunfeng stood on both sides of the fire without making any sound.
Su Tong looked around again and found nothing unusual. He just felt strange.
But the moment she turned her head, she seemed to notice something out of the corner of her eye.
She looked sharply to the left, staring at a backpack placed on the outermost side.
If I saw it correctly just now...the backpack is moving.
But when Su Tong stared at the backpack, it just lay there quietly, as if she was just dazzled.
When resting last night, most of the team members used their backpacks as pillows. Now that everyone has gone out, the backpacks are lying all over the place.
Su Tong rubbed his eyes and decided to move the outermost bag closer.
Unexpectedly, just as she moved, the backpack suddenly seemed to have grown legs and "whoosh" rushed into the woods.
Su Tong was shocked and chased after him in one step.
There were a lot of dead grass in the forest, and Su Tong discovered it in time. He held down the backpack in just a few steps.
Sure enough, there was a hook hanging on the backpack strap, and the hook was connected to a rope.
Su Tong grabbed the rope without any hesitation and pulled it back.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the person on the other end of the rope loosened the rope and ran away.
Su Tong had already discovered the man's whereabouts, so how could he let him go? He jumped up and chased after him.
"Sister Lan! Danger!"
Chen Yunfeng shouted loudly from behind.
Su Tong didn't have time to answer him. He rushed over and pinned down the man who stole the luggage.
It was dark in the forest, and Su Tong was afraid of any accidents, so she attacked quickly and with great force. However, the opponent had no power to resist and was howling in pain after being hit by her.
When Chen Yunfeng anxiously chased after her, she had already returned with the man.
Zhao Xin didn't dare to leave Ma Liu for a moment. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Tong and Chen Yunfeng came back within two minutes.
At the same time, he was secretly shocked that this Sister Lan was not only brave, but also seemed to have some skills.
Chen Yunfeng dragged the man that Su Tong caught to the fire and tied his hands and feet with a rope.
This was a young man in his early twenties, with a pointed face and long bangs. He wore a large cotton-padded jacket made of homespun cloth on his upper body and a pair of jeans on his lower body, which was inappropriate. His two little eyes were rolling around, and no one hit him, but he couldn't stop wailing. It was obvious that he was not an easy person to deal with.
Just as Su Tong was about to ask, he heard some noise coming from the woods.
Looking up, I saw that Lin Li and Zhou Jin were not empty-handed, and they were dragging a yellow-haired boy out.
The yellow hair was not dyed, it was the kind of yellow that was dry and without nutrition, so sparse and messy that it looked like a bird's nest on his head.
But the yellow-haired boy looked the youngest, only about fifteen or sixteen years old, and was crying with snot and tears:
"Brothers and uncles, please be kind! I'm really not a bad person!"
“I’m really just passing by…”
