Chapter 112 He quickly looked at the glowing place
Zhang Dahu and the other two were like three giant bats, perched on the two walls of the alley with their wings spread, looking ahead vigilantly. They heard the sound of only one person's footsteps, but they were a bit messy.
A man came over crookedly, obviously drunk. When he got closer, he turned out to be a Japanese ronin. Jiang Wukui wanted to jump down and kill him, but Zhang Dahu was afraid that he would act impulsively, so he quickly gave him a warning with gestures.
The Japanese ronin passed by Zhang Dahu and his three companions in a crooked manner. Zhang Dahu and his companions quietly got down to the ground and turned the corner of the alley silently.
"Why didn't you kill the little Japanese guy just now? Isn't killing him just like killing an ant?" Jiang Wukui asked softly.
"We are not chivalrous knights, nor are we guerrillas. We have a more important mission! I have told you many times to stay calm and not act on impulse! Let's go!" said Zhang Dahu.
"I get it. I just get angry when I see the Japanese!" said Jiang Wukui.
"Who doesn't want to kill? But the overall situation is more important!" Li Jianwei said as he stuck to the wall and walked quickly forward without any sound under his feet.
The three of them soon reached the outskirts of the city. Zhang Dahu took out the map, looked at it, identified the direction, and walked towards Hutou Mountain.
"Everyone, please be alert. Don't think everything will be fine once you leave the city. If this place is related to 'Operation Mantis', the risk factor will be even greater than in the city!" Zhang Dahu warned.
"Got it." Jiang Wukui said, and he and Li Jianwei instinctively searched forward according to the triangular formation.
The night wind in the mountains made a subtle sound as it blew through the leaves, and occasionally there were the cries of wild animals.
The dim moonlight shone on the mountain, and the shadows of the trees swayed slightly on the ground. Zhang Dahu and the other two walked forward, looking left and right, and walked quickly forward.
"Stop!" Zhang Dahu said softly, his eyes staring to the left. He noticed that there was suddenly an unusual sound in the grass.
Jiang Wukui and Li Jianwei stopped and looked around vigilantly.
When the sound came from the bushes again, Zhang Dahu threw a dart towards the place where the grass was shaking. Then, the edge of the bushes began to shake, but no human voice came out.
Jiang Wukui and Li Jianwei's darts had also flown over long ago.
"It's not a human, it could be a wild beast. Let's go and take a look." Zhang Dahu said as he walked towards the bushes. When he got closer, he saw a big snake still twitching. There were three flying knives stuck in its body, and one of the flying knives was stuck in the snake's vital point.
The big snake twisted its tail and finally stopped moving.
Zhang Dahu and his men took off their throwing knives, wiped them on the grass, and continued searching forward.
The three of them were almost at the foot of Hutou Mountain. Zhang Dahu stopped, and Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui came over: "What should we do?"
Zhang Dahu looked up and said, "Jianwei, climb up that big tree and look around."
"Yes." Li Jianwei ran towards the largest tree on the left and climbed up the tree nimbly like a monkey. He looked around and found nothing unusual, but only felt the cool mountain breeze.
Li Jianwei slid down and walked to Zhang Dahu: "Nothing happened."
"Let's go, keep moving forward! Be alert!" said Zhang Dahu.
The three of them once again formed a triangular search formation and walked forward.
After walking for a while, Zhang Dahu stopped again. Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui stopped and looked around vigilantly, then quickly approached Zhang Dahu.
"What's wrong? What should we do?"
"Look over there! How about we go to that hill and climb up the big tree to observe?" Zhang Dahu said, pointing to the hill on the left.
"Okay, but I can't find the way to get there," said Jiang Wukui.
"The road is under your feet! Be careful!" Zhang Dahu said as he walked in that direction. He walked into the overgrown grass forest, occasionally chopping off the thorns around him with a dagger. Li Jianwei and Jiang Wukui followed behind him, responsible for vigilance.
After walking for a while, the three found a path leading to the hill. They continued searching along the path in a triangle formation.
The three searched to the top of the hill, and they looked around but still found nothing. It was almost one in the morning.
"Jianwei, climb up that tall tree and observe carefully from above! I don't believe that we can't find out what's going on! Mishima and Kawako must have their own secrets when they came to this place! You stay up there for a longer time and don't miss any suspicious places." Zhang Dahu said.
Li Jianwei responded and climbed up the tree like a monkey. Zhang Dahu gestured to Jiang Wukui, and the two searched below.
Zhang Dahu and his companions below looked around but didn't notice anything. Li Jianwei in the tree also didn't notice anything.
Five minutes later, Li Jianwei was about to slide down the tree. When he was about to slide down, he saw a little light appearing somewhere, and he quickly looked at the glowing place.
The light disappeared after a while. Li Jianwei thought it was the light of a flashlight, but he knew that the place where the light came from was a certain distance away from here. Could it be that the natural big cave was located there?
Li Jianwei slid down the tree and told Zhang Dahu what he had found. Zhang Dahu took out the map again and laid it on the ground, and then took out the compass and quickly marked the location on the map.
"It's getting late! Let's end our reconnaissance tonight!" said Zhang Dahu.
"What did you say? You discovered the situation but didn't move forward?" Jiang Wukui asked in confusion.
"Go back to sleep. As for why, think about it carefully yourself." Zhang Dahu said.
"Let's go back and continue our reconnaissance tomorrow night. When we come, we can go directly towards the big cave." Li Jianwei said.
"I understand! For safety reasons, we can't let them find us," said Jiang Wukui.
"Let's go. We can still sleep for a while if we go back, and then make up for it during the day. We must be in good spirits." Zhang Dahu said, and took a step forward.
The three of them returned home, took a bath and lay down on the bed. They had a very tiring journey and they fell asleep quickly.
It was soon four o'clock in the morning and the evening breeze squeezed into the house, bringing a slight chill.
"ah!"
Jiang Wukui suddenly screamed and sat up, touching his neck with both hands.
"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?" Zhang Dahu quickly sat up and ran over.
"Wu Kui, why do you always have nightmares? I was sleeping so soundly!" Li Jianwei came over, wiped his eyes and said.
"I dreamed of a snake. It was so big! It was wrapped around my neck and spitting out its tongue. It was right in front of me. I was scared to death!" Jiang Wukui wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Whatever you think about during the day, you dream about. What you see at night, you dream about. It's really emotional! When I saw the big snake I killed, I dreamed that it came to take revenge." Zhang Dahu said with a smile.
"If the big snake comes to seek revenge, it should look for you! You were the one who discovered it, so you killed it first." Jiang Wukui said.
"The big snake is targeting its size. Your dart hit the big snake's target very well. Your attack was fatal. Of course it is seeking revenge on you." Li Jianwei said with a smile.
"I was really scared when I heard that !" Jiang Wukui still seemed to be in shock.
"Okay, okay, let's go to bed! I don't plan to eat breakfast and sleep until mid-morning. This is the best time to sleep." Zhang Dahu said.
"I won't have breakfast either. I didn't get enough sleep last night. A nap in the morning is better than taking tonics. Go to bed, Wu Kui, if you want to kiss the beautiful snake, just continue to dream!" Li Jianwei said as he returned to his bed, fell on it and closed his eyes.
"Humph! Morality! Who doesn't know how to sleep? I sleep too." Jiang Wukui said to himself, fell on the bed, pulled the thin sheet over his head, and thought, "I'll continue sleeping when the day breaks."
The three of them slept until mid-morning. After getting up and washing up, they divided the work and started preparing lunch.
During lunch, Zhang Dahu did not mention the night reconnaissance. Jiang Wukui could not help but ask, "Dahu, what do you think of the light Jianwei found last night?"
"How should I know? Ask Jianwei!" Zhang Dahu said as he picked up the dishes and started eating.
"Jianwei, have you ever thought about it? What's going on?"
"I haven't thought about it. You tell us!" Jianwei said and picked up the food and started eating.
"I think someone must have used a flashlight to relieve himself. Although there was moonlight, it was dim and there were snakes in the mountains, so he took the flashlight. But what were they doing in the cave? What ulterior motives did they have? Is this really related to 'Operation Praying Mantis'?" Jiang Wukui said, and saw that Zhang Dahu and the other two were only focused on eating, "You two should analyze it!"
"Your analysis makes sense. Go on, we'll listen." Li Jianwei said as he continued to pick up some food and eat.
Jiang Wukui looked at the bowl that Li Jianwei's chopsticks were reaching for, and he brought the bowl in front of him and said, "You two deliberately let me talk, and you guys eat up all this delicious food?"
Zhang Dahu looked at Jiang Wukui and smiled.
"You are so disloyal to your brother! The rest are all mine!" Jiang Wukui poured the remaining beef slices in the bowl into his own rice bowl.
"Okay, yours. I'll eat the vegetables." Li Jianwei smiled and picked up some vegetables.
"Humph! Of course it's mine. Look, if I don't do something, it will be gone!" Jiang Wukui said as he quickly lowered his head and started eating.
Zhang Dahu and Li Jianwei were full and smiled at each other.
Jiang Wukui picked up the bowl of vegetables and poured the vegetables into the rice bowl.
After finishing his meal, Jiang Wukui looked at his bulging belly and said, "It's good. I'm finally full."
"How come you take a nap when you're so full?" Zhang Dahu said with a smile, looking at his bulging belly.
"Just got up and fell asleep again?" Jiang Wukui said.
"Of course. If you don't sleep well, how can you be energetic tonight?" Li Jianwei said with a smile.
"That's right. I'll take a cold shower later to digest it before going to sleep." Jiang Wukui said.
"I also heard that taking a cold shower helps digestion faster. Wu Kui, you are quite knowledgeable." Li Jianwei said with a smile.
"I'm a fool, okay! You two are also wicked, deliberately teasing me. Let me tell you, when I can't sleep, I will also disturb your sleep!" Jiang Wukui said with a pout.
