Chapter 631 Someone is trying to break into the farm
After the gunshots, Han Ying temporarily put down her phone, and the two walked out of the snow house to listen for any further gunshots in the distance.
However, the gunfire stopped after one shot, and no more gunshots were heard afterwards.
"The gunshot just now was most likely to deter or alert the people in the base, otherwise why would there be only one shot?"
In this eternal night, few people travel alone, they usually travel in groups.
Therefore, when there are quite a few people on both sides and only one gunshot is heard, the possibility of it being used to kill people is very small.
While the two were wondering, Lu Yuan's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Gu Yuanping.
"Xiao Lu, the patrol just spotted a group of people coming from the direction of the sea. I guess they are most likely from the Hope Base next door. They temporarily retreated after being discovered by our people. As for whether they really withdrew or were just waiting for an opportunity, it is unclear. You guys should be careful on the farm."
Gu Yuanping's voice sounded a little anxious, as he had just received the news.
The news was that a patrol officer at the seaside lost his small wine flask while on patrol, and he found those people when he turned back to look for it.
But unfortunately, when he discovered those people, they also discovered him. He knew he couldn't escape, so he fired a shot to alert others.
In the end, the patrolman was killed by the group, but because their traces were discovered, they withdrew.
After hearing the warning from Gu Yuanping, Lu Yuan wanted to remind him that he and Han Ying had already resigned from the positions of farmers, but he said nothing and only said that he would be careful.
In addition, Lu Yuan told Gu Yuanping about the mutant wheat, and said that he would leave 9 seedlings on the farm for Feng Shaochen and Li Ping to take care of.
When Gu Yuanping heard that the two of them had obtained mutant wheat again, a trace of regret flashed across his face.
If only they could stay on the farm forever, look how many good things they have brought to the farm since they took over?
Look, even mutant wheat can be produced.
That's wheat. Wheat that can be produced into flour is, like rice, the most common staple food.
If wheat can be successfully grown, although life will not be as good as before the end of the world, it will at least be more promising.
Gu Yuanping said that he would go to the farm to see the mutant wheat in two days, and asked Lu Yuan and Han Ying to tell him in advance if they wanted to leave, and not to leave quietly.
There was nothing wrong with this, and Lu Yuan agreed immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Han Ying called Liu Hefeng again, while Lu Yuan called Feng Shaochen.
He told them what Gu Yuanping had just said, and asked Liu Hefeng to strengthen the security patrols of the farm, especially in some corners where few people usually go.
Generally, people who sneak into the farm are dug in from those corners. Don’t ask why. Han Ying and Lu Yuan have done this many times in other bases before.
Han Ying felt that nothing could happen in the few days before they left, otherwise they would not be able to leave with peace of mind.
So Han Ying went to the snow house next door to ask Uncle Tangyuan to come out.
Uncle Tangyuan has been slacking off since he got a wife and children. He spends all day with his wife and children, and his life is so wonderful.
Of course, Han Ying also wanted to let it spend more time with his wife and children, but someone might break into the farm now.
It was just the time when Grandpa Tangyuan was needed, so I had to pull it out.
Tangyuan's patrolling ability is not comparable to that of Liu Hefeng's patrol team.
Before Han Ying and Lu Yuan stepped down as farmers, they would let Tang Yuan run around the entire farm from time to time.
After doing this, it can detect any restless thieves who want to break into the farm.
Han Ying went to the snow house next door and asked Tangyuan to come out to act as a patrol dog. Tangyuan did not refuse. He comforted his wife and children and followed Han Ying.
After that, every two hours, Han Ying would let Tangyuan go out for a walk and come back.
With such frequent patrols, even Tangyuan felt that things might not be simple, so he cooperated with Han Ying in patrolling the farm without any complaints.
The patrol work of Liu Hefeng and the guards has also increased, from three shifts to two shifts, which means that the number of people patrolling the farm has increased.
Of course, even if someone comes to the Penglai base, they may not come to the farm.
However, the two still didn't want anything to happen again during the few days they were there.
In addition to the patrols by Liu Hefeng and Tang Yuan, Han Ying and Lu Yuan were also on the farm's lookout tower, using night vision binoculars to keep a close eye on everything around them.
However, due to the heavy snow, even with night vision binoculars, you can't see very far.
For two consecutive days, the entire base was peaceful without any accidents. It seemed that those people gave up the idea of breaking into the base or the farm.
But Gu Yuanping didn't dare to slack off for a moment, he knew it was not that simple.
So Gu Yuanping asked Han Ying and Lu Yuan to leave a few days later, because he always felt a little uneasy these days.
Originally, the two had planned to leave the day after tomorrow, but Gu Yuanping's request was not too excessive. After all, it was related to the safety of the base and the farm, so the two agreed.
For three days, nothing happened.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan had almost packed their things and were only waiting to leave Jiangcheng in two days.
This time, Gu Yuanping did not keep the two people, but he still did not let his guard down.
The night before leaving, Han Ying still asked Tangyuan to take a walk around the farm every two hours.
The farm is big, but Tangyuan is fast and it didn’t take long to walk around it.
At around three o'clock in the morning, Tangyuan was sent out for a walk again, while Han Ying and Lu Yuan went up to the observation tower to check with binoculars.
The two didn't see anything wrong through the night vision binoculars.
Thinking that Tangyuan should be back, the two were about to go down the watchtower when Tangyuan suddenly jumped directly from the bottom to the 40-meter-high watchtower.
Woof!
Tang Yuan gave a low bark at Han Ying.
Han Ying immediately understood that Tangyuan must have discovered the situation.
"Someone's trying to break into the farm?"
Han Ying began to ask about Tangyuan.
Woof!
"A lot of people?"
"More than 50 people?"
"More than 100 people?"
After getting Tang Yuan's affirmative answer again, Han Ying continued to ask: "Which direction? This way? This way?"
After getting Tang Yuan's affirmative answer, both of their faces changed. Lu Yuan took out his cell phone and called Gu Yuanping.
"Deputy Base Commander, a group of more than 100 people is coming from the southwest of the farm!"
Lu Yuan didn't waste any time and directly told everyone the news he knew.
"I'll send someone over right away!"
Gu Yuanping's heart skipped a beat; his bad premonition actually came true.
"Don't send out too many people to prevent the enemy from making a feint to the east and attacking in the west..."
Lu Yuan reminded Gu Yuanping, and then thought that with Gu Yuanping's combat ability, it was impossible for him not to know this, so he didn't say anything else.
The main reason is that those people are heading towards the farm, but in fact there is nothing worth mentioning in the farm except the crops.
But if you're coming for the crops, wouldn't it be better to sneak in?
Why would so many people come in all of a sudden with such fanfare?
"I will!"
Gu Yuanping did not refute Lu Yuan's words and agreed directly.
The main reason is that he himself has concerns in this regard.
