Chapter 1251 The Returnee's Notes 325
Just as she was about to take a closer look, a gunshot rang out, the screen went black, and the drone flying in the air crashed to the ground.
Wang Ze glanced at the sky and asked, "How did they know the drone was filming them?"
"After all, it's not invisible, and although this drone is quiet, it's only relatively quiet compared to other drones, so it's not surprising that it's been detected."
It's not surprising that the people inside knew about drones.
Drones aren't exactly a new thing; they've been quite popular in recent years.
From the beginning, Xie Ning did not regard the other party as someone from a remote mountainous area who had never seen the outside world. Therefore, when she was observing, she mainly recorded the general structure of the courtyard and the surrounding terrain to see if there were any other problems.
However, she did not expect that the other party had a gun.
"It should be a shotgun."
This is definitely illegal, but there are still quite a few people who secretly and illegally possess guns, especially those in the village who often hunt. They not only buy hunting rifles through underground channels, but also keep some hunting dogs.
Meow~
Black Egg's feathers stood on end.
Xie Ning didn't hear the dogs barking, but she saw three hunting dogs when the drone crashed. If they could find her by following the scent on the drone, it probably wouldn't be too difficult.
Wang Ze quickly packed his things, "Let's run first."
The other side not only had guns but also dogs. Since the village was quite a distance away, they decided to go back to the village and wait for others to arrive first, just to be safe.
Xie Ning glanced at him. "You can't outrun him."
And now they can't escape anymore.
"Look at the compass."
Wang Ze immediately took out his compass. The compass needle was spinning non-stop, obviously due to magnetic interference. They were now closer to the courtyard than before, on a relatively steep slope behind the courtyard, which was covered with bamboo, making it easy to hide.
At first, they thought the little bamboo grove was nice, but now it has become a place that traps them.
Looking in other directions, the farmhouses that were just faintly visible had all disappeared, leaving only thick fog and faintly visible bamboo.
They entered the trap, and the key to breaking the trap was in the courtyard.
In other words, they had no choice but to enter the courtyard.
Seeing that Heidan was reacting, Xie Ning figured the other party was probably not far away. Rather than running, he decided to confront them head-on.
But I...
Wang Ze wiped the sweat from his forehead. He didn't even have a shred of martial arts skills. The other side not only had dogs but also guns, and there was probably more than one person.
Xie Ning shook his head, glanced at the faintly brightening sky, and saw a hint of red appearing along the mountainside; the sun would soon rise.
The umbrella sword was drawn, and the faint light fell, refracting into several fine specks of light.
“A sword can’t stop a bullet.” Wang Ze leaned against a thick bamboo, looking very worried.
Xie Ning glanced at him and said, "I'm not stupid enough to take a sword and fight someone with a gun."
One is a melee fighter, and the other is a ranged attacker, not to mention that the Soul Umbrella is mainly designed to target spirits.
She was just setting up a position here; as for dealing with the people who were about to come after her, she certainly... had a gun too.
Wang Ze was shocked to learn that she possessed a gun, but he didn't ask any further questions. He only whispered, "Sister, you... you mustn't kill anyone."
Even though those people may be bad, killing someone will only harm yourself.
Xie Ning nodded. She didn't intend to kill anyone, but the people who came had to be dealt with, at least to render them incapable of attacking.
