Chapter 171 Threat from the Unknown
The throwing knife was not big, with a blade only seven inches long and sharp edges on both sides, so it had strong piercing power. When Gao Mingcheng was practicing throwing the knife, the blade of the knife could be completely embedded in the tree trunk, and it required a lot of force to pull it out.
At this time, the flying knife flew towards Mr. Luo's hat and pierced it accurately. The force brought by the blade caused the hat to fall off his head. Then, with a thud, the flying knife and the hat pierced into a tree trunk not far behind Mr. Luo!
"ah!!!!"
The frightened Mr. Luo squatted down, holding his head with his hands and screaming.
He touched his head in shock, as if trying to confirm whether it was still there, but ended up touching a hand full of hair.
It turned out that Gao Mingcheng's accuracy was still a little off. When piercing the hat, he still cut off a strand of Mr. Luo's hair, causing Mr. Luo to become bald prematurely.
Gao Mingcheng saw this scene from a distance and felt a little sorry.
"Who? Who?" The Ma brothers were also panicked. They looked around with their shotguns, their fingers on the trigger, as if they were ready to shoot at any time.
Gao Mingcheng hid in the dark and shouted in a rough voice: "This is my territory, get out if you don't want to die!"
"What do you mean your territory? This mountain is public property. If you can enter the mountain, we can enter the mountain too!" shouted the eldest son of the Ma family.
Even though he shouted like that, he was already somewhat discouraged.
He is a hunter and knows some hunting rules. Every hunter has his own territory and you cannot barge in rashly, otherwise there will definitely be a fight.
If you win, this piece of land is yours. If you lose, you have to apologize and leave.
In fact, this is similar to the territorial awareness of wild animals. For example, bears, tigers, wolves and other wild animals all have their own designated territories. If other animals of the same kind intrude, they will be expelled.
"Brother." The second son of the Ma family patted the eldest brother on the shoulder and signaled with his eyes that he should look at the knife nailed to the tree trunk.
The blade was completely embedded in the tree trunk, with only the crude handle remaining outside.
When the head of the Ma family saw this scene, he gasped.
If the person in the dark had fired a gun, he wouldn't be so scared, but this was a knife! Then the man's skills were a little frightening.
At this time, the frightened Mr. Luo had come to his senses. He stood up and pulled out the revolver from his waist. He kept moving the revolver like a headless fly, cursing: "Do you know who I am? How dare you attack me? Let me tell you, my last name is Luo! Which Luo, do you know?"
Since the other party said so, Gao Mingcheng thought about it and asked, "Is it the Luo family in Luyuan?"
Luo is a big family in their county, and the Luo clan in Luyuan is very powerful, having produced some officials since ancient times.
The Luo clan member who came later became the second-in-command of their city. However, he embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars a few years later and was forced to step down.
Mr. Luo didn't expect that the other party actually knew his family. He was stunned for a few seconds, then said arrogantly: "Yes! Are you scared? If you are scared, get out of here!"
Gao Mingcheng was silent for a moment, then deliberately said in a sinister tone: "Oh, would I be afraid? People like you must be from a branch family, right? You just take advantage of your family name! Let me say it again, this is my hunting ground, you either get out or stay here forever!"
"Where are the green mountains that are good for burying bones? I think this green mountain is a good place for Feng Shui. It won't be a loss for you to stay here forever!"
Gao Mingcheng directly uttered the threatening words.
After these words were spoken, the three people opposite them all looked unhappy.
They all had guns, but they had no idea where Gao Mingcheng was hiding. At this time, the hunting dog seemed to sense something and ran towards where Gao Mingcheng was while barking.
The hunting dogs have very good sense of smell and hearing. Even if Gao Mingcheng deliberately hid himself, it only took a few words for the hunting dogs to figure out where the sound came from.
Seeing the hunting dog move, Mr. Luo's eyes lit up with joy.
He immediately said to the Ma brothers around him: "When we find the person, just shoot him. If he is killed, it will be my fault!"
It’s just a matter of killing one or two people in the mountains. The forces behind him can easily deal with it!
After hearing this, the Ma brothers couldn't help but take a step back, looking embarrassed.
The two brothers looked at each other, both with helplessness and regret in their eyes.
If they had known that they would encounter two people who were not afraid of their lives on this trip, they would not have done it no matter how much money they were offered!
They are good at hunting, but they don’t dare to kill people!
They originally thought that the hunting dog could find the person hiding in the dark, but soon, they saw with their own eyes a flying knife shot out and accurately nailed the hunting dog's foot!
The flying knife was so powerful that it nailed one of the hound's feet into the ground.
The hunting dog screamed madly in pain, trying to move its feet away, but it was unable to do so. In the process, the blades on both sides continued to widen the wounds.
"Wangwang!" The Ma brothers were horrified and ran towards the hunting dogs.
This hunting dog was raised by them and was a good helper for them when they went into the mountains to hunt. Therefore, when they saw the hunting dog was injured, they ignored the hidden danger and instinctively ran towards the hunting dog.
"Wangwang, don't move! I'll pull out the knife!" The eldest brother of the Ma family said in a deep voice. He held the injured foot of the hunting dog with one hand, held the handle of the knife with the other hand, and pulled the knife out of the ground. In the process, he used a lot of strength to pull it out.
However, when he drew the sword, the hunting dog suffered a second injury, and its cry of pain was distorted.
Fortunately, those who go into the mountains to hunt will carry some hemostatic medicine with them. The second son of the Ma family quickly took out the hemostatic medicine, cleaned the wound of the hunting dog, and then applied the medicine.
It was quiet all around, with only the screams of the hunting dogs to be heard.
When Mr. Luo saw that the flying knife injured the hunting dog, he felt a sense of fear in his heart.
The knife was aimed at him, but he didn't see the knife at first. It was not until the knife stabbed his hat and knocked the hat off his head that he realized he was in danger.
It was already very impressive that the opponent stabbed his hat, but now the opponent could actually accurately stab the running hunting dog!
This kind of eyesight and accuracy is frightening.
At this time, the person in the dark said again: "Put down the knife!"
It turned out that when the eldest brother of the Ma family was pulling out the knife from the hunting dog, he secretly wanted to keep the knife.
No matter what his intention was in doing this, Gao Mingcheng couldn't let him take the knife away.
Every blacksmith has a different forging technique. If they take the knife away and want to ask someone, they might be able to find the blacksmith, Lao Li, and find out that he ordered this knife from Lao Li.
Gao Mingcheng never showed up from beginning to end because he didn't want to expose himself completely.
When the head of the Ma family heard the man's low growl, he was so scared that he quickly threw the knife to the ground again and took a few steps back to indicate that he would not have the idea again.
"Leave this mountain range immediately and don't force me to take any ruthless action! Mr. Luo, you want to keep me here. Do you think that the forces behind you can deal with it? But have you ever thought that there are also forces behind me?" Gao Mingcheng deliberately spoke threatening words in a sinister tone, and the intimidation effect was perfect!
At this time, Mr. Luo, who was always arrogant, dared not say a word.
He knew that killing people in the mountains was a simple matter, and he also knew that it was equally simple for the other party to kill them.
Although he had a revolver in his hand and thought he was an accurate shooter, he had not yet seen the opponent. If he did not aim at the target, then even the most accurate shooting skills would be in vain.
