Chapter 95 Sneak Attack
Xie Yun shook his head, "I'm not stupid. I haven't seen anyone coming out of those rooms since I moved in before the disaster, and the keyholes were blocked after the disaster. I thought it must be you."
Yu Duoduo frowned, "I didn't think Tong Zi and the others would move in before, so I just hastily sealed the door and punched holes in the inner wall to store supplies. If it's left like this for a long time, I'm afraid they will find out!"
Xie Yun thought about it and analyzed it for her: "It's not a big problem. After all, they came late. They can fool people by saying that they sealed it up after the natural disaster started. How can ordinary people believe in rebirth?
However, when that time comes, they will know the capacity of the supplies you have.
That becomes a common problem in the end times - if they are short of food, neither of us will be safe, and if they are not short of food, they will naturally not worry about our food reserves."
"Then we need to get them to start stockpiling food as soon as possible. More and more people are coming to Hui City from other places to get food. It's only a matter of time before the government reduces the amount of food it gives out..."
Before Yu Duoduo could finish her words, Xie Yun suddenly pulled her to the right. A sharp sound passed by her left ear, leaving a bloody mark on the auricle.
Yu Duoduo reacted quickly, pulled out a knife from his waist, and slashed fiercely at the edge of the speedboat, instantly cutting off two bloody arms and stabbing the body, causing two screams of pain in the water.
Xie Yun quickly picked up the nail gun and fired in the direction of the dagger coming from the fog in front of him. Finally, after shooting nearly ten steel nails, he heard muffled groans from the two men.
I have to say that the cooperation between assassins and shooters is becoming more and more tacit!
The two waited in silence for a long time. When there was no sound from the front, Xie Yun slowly rowed the speedboat towards the dark shadow in the fog ahead.
Two bodies were seen collapsed on the small wooden boat. There were traces of steel nails piercing their chests, and the nails were firmly nailed to the side of the boat board.
The steel nails were poisonous, and black blood was oozing out of his nostrils and mouth...
Xie Yun jumped onto the wooden boat first and pushed the two people on the boat into the water with his feet.
Yu Duoduo was surprised to see the little lamb that had fainted under the two men. The lamb had black fur and was only the size of a medium-sized dog.
Just as I was watching excitedly, Xie Yun suddenly handed me a large sickle, "Weren't you envious of this weapon before? Here!
These people look like villagers living nearby, and the lamb is most likely one that escaped from the farm and was caught by them."
As Xie Yun spoke, he threw the unconscious lamb into the speedboat.
Yu Duoduo quickly put down the scythe and reached out to touch the lamb. Oh, its fur is so soft and comfortable! It's just a little dirty...
There were a lot of supplies on the boat, all packed in sacks. Xie Yun opened a few bags piled on top, and found that they were filled with apples and oranges! Looking at their appearance, they were big and red, so they must have been freshly picked.
"It's a good place to come today. I can pick up a boatload of fruits for free!" Xie Yun was in a good mood, but he hadn't seen fresh fruits for some time!
"I said it's not time to just stay at home! Who knows, we might get something big today!" Yu Duoduo also laughed.
There were a lot of fruits on the wooden boat, as well as some rice and seeds. It was difficult to carry them, so Xie Yun simply found a rope, tied the wooden boat to the assault boat, and moved forward with the boat.
She took out a tablet from her bag and swiped it twice. "They should be around here. Look around for any high ground. Maybe we can find them there!"
The two of them, one holding a knife and the other holding a nail gun, were searching on the water surface vigilantly. They didn't dare to chat anymore, for fear that they would encounter the knife-wielding thief again. If they did, they would lose their lives here today.
Fortunately, this high ground is much easier to find than the slope that Yu Duoduo went to alone yesterday, because this hill has a height difference of nearly 100 meters and the trees are much denser than those yesterday.
The only thing in common is the snake's nest lurking at the junction of land and water!
But today, with Xie Yun here, Yu Duoduo had no chance to make any move at all. The rubber boat did not go directly to the shore, but stopped a little further away, but within the range of the nail gun.
A row of steel nails were driven out, and many larger snakes were hit, while the small snakes escaped by chance. For a moment, the shallows were in a mess, and the colorful tails of all sizes and lengths were twisted into a mess.
Xie Yun stopped and waited for the snakes that were not hit by the nail to escape. The rest of them twisted wildly for a while and then calmed down.
There were about a dozen colorful snakes as thick as sugarcane left at the scene. This was what Tong Zi had said yesterday: snake meat of this size was the most delicious!
Yu Duoduo even suspected that Xie Yun was deliberately aiming at people with this physique, but didn’t he say that nail guns don’t have scopes and can only be shot by feel?
The rubber boat came to the shore, and Yu Duoduo was about to get off the boat when Xie Yun suddenly handed him a small cloth bag. "This is realgar powder. Hang it on your body. The smell is quite stimulating and can effectively drive away snakes around you."
Yu Duoduo took it and hung it on his belt.
"Can I borrow your long knife? I'll chop off the snake's head. It's safer to carry with me." Xie Yun said as he jumped off the rubber boat.
Taking the embroidered spring knife handed over by Yu Duoduo, Xie Yun suddenly remembered something and asked, "This one shouldn't be coated with poison, right?"
This question stunned Yu Duoduo. Yes, if the meat is killed with poisonous tools, can it still be eaten?
"Then your steel nails are all poisonous, right?" Yu Duoduo asked back.
Xie Yun shook the gun in his hand, "The one I used to hit someone earlier was poisoned, this one isn't."
"My long sword is also non-toxic." Yu Duoduo said.
Xie Yun deftly chopped off more than a dozen snake heads, then put on gloves and picked them up one by one into a plastic bag and sealed it.
As for why we need to use a long knife, of course it is because we are afraid that the snake is not dead yet, and it will jump up and bite back, and the game will be over. Using a long knife, at least there will be time to react!
Xie Yun put away the rubber boat, moved the wooden boat to a slightly hidden location, tied the boat to a crooked tree with a rope, and placed the bag containing the snake and the unconscious lamb in the wooden boat.
Yu Duoduo carried the large sickle he had just obtained, and the two of them walked towards the woods together, looking a bit like the Grim Reaper going out to look for food.
The two walked not far into the woods when they found a bungalow standing on the hillside. It was an ordinary brick house with only a small path winding up to it. It was now soaked by the rain and was muddy.
The two of them were instantly alert. There were still people living in this place! Could it be the knife-wielding thugs they had just killed? Could there be other accomplices?
The next second, two bodies were seen lying under a big tree by the side of the path. One of them had been stabbed in the chest, and the other had his head chopped off. It was a rather cruel scene.
The corpse had been gnawed into a hideous state by the rats that arrived earlier.
Even when Yu Duoduo and the others approached, two small rats were crawling out from the clothes of a corpse...
"The blood hasn't dried yet. It should have happened half an hour ago. Looking at the shape of the knife wound on the neck, the murder weapon is obviously the sickle in your hand." Xie Yun walked closer, took a look and said.
