Courtyard House: My Long and Hard Body Makes Me Play with All the Women in the Courtyard

Su Ting slowly lowered the gun in his hand, squatted down, and asked gently, "Little friend, what are you doing here all by yourself? Aren't you afraid of getting lost?"

The little girl grinned, revealing two front teeth, one of which was missing.

“My home is nearby. My mom said there are a lot of bad people around lately and she doesn’t want me to go out to play… But I saw someone hiding in the woods, so I couldn’t resist sneaking a peek.”

“That’s really risky. Do you know how dangerous this is?” Li Wei added from the side.

Just then, the enemy appeared to be regrouping and preparing to launch another attack.

Su Ting looked up at the reddish sunlight on the horizon. "We must leave here quickly. Little girl, could you take us to a more secluded place to hide for a while?"

The little girl nodded: "I know a good place, come with me!" With that, she ran into the denser depths of the nearby jungle.

Chapter 338 Rapid Evacuation!

Su Ting and the others quickly followed the little girl, trying to keep their steps light to avoid attracting the enemy's attention. Lin Tao followed while constantly checking the equipment in his hands.

"This road looks more secluded; hopefully, it will allow us to escape safely," Li Wei whispered to Su Ting beside him.

"I hope so. We must ensure the children's safety no matter what." Su Ting's eyes were incredibly resolute, as if no difficulty could deter his determination to protect everyone.

Suddenly, another burst of rapid gunfire rang out in the distance, and everyone's heartbeats instantly quickened.

"They've caught up again!" Lin Tao's voice carried a hint of anxiety. "The smoke device is ready! It can be used at any time."

"Wait, don't use it yet," Su Ting quickly replied. "Wait until the enemy gets closer before releasing it to create maximum chaos. Follow the girl for now."

The little girl wandering through the dense woods seemed completely unaware of the tense scene unfolding outside. She would occasionally turn back to look at the adults and give them an innocent smile.

After passing through a particularly dense thicket of bushes, we finally came across the entrance to a small, naturally formed cave. Although small, it was sufficient for temporarily evading a search.

"Uncles, this is a great hiding place!" the girl announced proudly.

"Well done, thank you." Su Ting bent down and gently patted her head as a form of praise, then ordered the team members to enter the small space one by one.

Just as everyone was getting into position, the commotion outside grew louder, indicating the enemy was clearly closing in. "Captain Su, what do we do?"

Li Wei asked anxiously. At this moment, Su Ting calmly commanded, "Everyone take cover and prepare to deal with any emergencies. Lin Tao, prepare the smoke cover."

With a soft sound, a thick cloud of gray gas began to spread, quickly enveloping the entire area. "Take this opportunity to evacuate quickly!" Su Ting shouted the order.

Taking advantage of the thick fog, the group, led by the little girl, continued to venture deeper into the fog.

A few sporadic gunshots could be heard along the way, but they did not pose a direct threat to them due to obstructed visibility.

After an unknown amount of time, the surrounding environment gradually opened up—they had reached the edge of a small village at the end of the valley.

"Wow, we really escaped!" Lin Tao said breathlessly, his sweat-covered face filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.

However, Su Ting dared not let his guard down. "We still need to find an opportunity to contact the base and request further support. And we need to confirm whether this village is safe."

Just as they were discussing their next move, an old man carrying a hunting bow appeared in their line of sight. "Where did you outsiders come from?" the old man asked warily.

Su Ting quickly stepped forward to explain the situation, stating that he and his companions were being hunted, and that they needed his help.

Upon hearing this, the old hunter's attitude softened. "Come in, I can provide you with a place to stay temporarily."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to follow the kind elder into the village—

"Wait!" The girl's clear voice suddenly drew everyone's attention back.

It turned out to be the little girl who had led everyone to escape here earlier. She was clutching a dirty handkerchief in her hand. "This is for Uncle as a souvenir~" she said, handing the handkerchief to Su Ting.

The moment Su Ting received the handkerchief, she couldn't help but smile. "Thank you, little sister. I'll definitely come back to visit you sometime."

Chapter 339 Inspecting the Interior of the House

Su Ting took the handkerchief, gently folded it, and put it in his pocket. His eyes were filled with warmth and gratitude. "We will never forget your help, little sister."

The little girl nodded, her eyes shining: "I believe the uncles will be safe!"

“Let’s go,” Su Ting said, turning to his team. “We need to settle in as soon as possible and discuss our next steps.”

The old hunter led them into a wooden hut in the village. The hut was simple but clean, with a large table in the center, surrounded by several chairs and a bench.

"This is where I live. You can rest here for now." The old hunter pointed to a few chairs and told them to sit down.

Su Ting said gratefully, "Thank you so much for taking us in. What we need most right now is a quiet place to plan our next move."

Li Wei sat down, looking somewhat tired: "Captain, what do we do now? Our communication equipment has been damaged."

"We need to repair the communication equipment first and then contact the base," Lin Tao added.

Su Ting nodded: "First, I need to ask this old gentleman for a detailed understanding of the environment and surrounding conditions here. Lin Tao, see if you can still fix the communication equipment."

Lin Tao took out a communicator from his backpack and began to carefully inspect it. Li Wei, on the other hand, looked around the inside of the house to make sure there were no hidden risks.

"Sir, is there usually someone patrolling this village?" Su Ting asked.

The old hunter pondered for a moment and replied, "The village is usually very peaceful, but we have a few young men who take turns patrolling the area to ensure safety."

"Can these people be trusted? What if enemy scouts find this place?" Su Ting pressed further.

The old hunter smiled and shook his head: "You don't need to worry about that. The people here are all veterans who have experienced the flames of war, and they are more than capable of dealing with a few scouts."

Hearing this, Su Ting felt a little more at ease. He turned to Lin Tao and asked, "How's the equipment? Can it be repaired?"

Lin Tao looked up and wiped his sweat: "Most of the parts are intact, so there shouldn't be any major problems, it just needs some time."

“Okay, then get it fixed as soon as possible,” Su Ting said, then turned to Li Wei, “Go outside and check on the village’s safety.”

Li Wei nodded and immediately got up and left the room. Only Su Ting, Lin Tao, and the old hunter remained in the room.

“Sir, we still need some supplies, especially food and medical supplies. Do you have any here?” Su Ting asked.

The old hunter nodded: "There is a storage room in the village. I will take you there to get the supplies you need."

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside, the door was pushed open, and Li Wei ran in breathlessly: "Captain, suspicious figures have appeared on the outskirts of the village!"

Su Ting's expression changed: "How many people? What is their equipment?"

"About four or five, armed, they look like an enemy reconnaissance squad," Li Wei reported.

“We must take action; we can’t let them discover the village’s existence.” Su Ting immediately stood up. “Sir, do you have any suggestions?”

The old hunter frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "We can use the traps and ambush points around the village. If set up properly, we can catch them off guard."

Su Ting nodded in agreement: "Then let's proceed according to the old man's suggestion. Lin Tao, continue repairing the equipment; Li Wei, go with the old man to set up the traps; I'll be responsible for guarding the outside."

The group divided their tasks clearly and quickly began their operation. As night fell, the atmosphere in the woods grew even more tense.

Chapter 340 Well-Trained Reconnaissance Soldiers

The night was as dark as ink, and the path outside the village could only be barely discerned by the moonlight.

The old hunter led Li Wei through familiar paths, and the two tacitly set traps at key locations, using seemingly simple but extremely practical materials.

"These traps should last for a while."

The old hunter dusted off his hands and said in a low voice, "But we still can't let our guard down; these people are clearly well-trained scouts."

Li Wei nodded, his gaze unusually sharp in the darkness.

“I will be extra careful. By the way, sir, how do you think they found this place so quickly?”

The old hunter frowned, his tone somewhat heavy.

"This suggests that the enemy may have been lying in ambush nearby for some time, or that some locals have been bribed. In any case, we must eliminate this group of enemies as soon as possible to prevent further intelligence leaks."

When the two returned to the cabin, Lin Tao was still engrossed in repairing the communication equipment. Su Ting stood at the door, vigilantly watching everything outside.

"Is everything arranged?" Su Ting asked.

"Yes, there shouldn't be any major problems," Li Wei replied.

Su Ting nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Lin Tao: "How is it? Is it usable now?"

Lin Tao breathed slightly and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "That's about it. We should be able to contact the base."

“Okay, then immediately send a signal requesting backup and report our situation,” Su Ting instructed.

Lin Tao began to busy himself, typing on the keyboard, trying to re-establish contact with the base. Su Ting walked to the window, looked outside, and felt a vague unease in his heart.

Meanwhile, Li Wei and the old hunter sat down inside the house to rest for a while, ready to be on standby at any time.

"Captain, do you think those enemies will really take the bait?" Li Wei asked.

Su Ting pondered for a moment: "The enemy's scouts are usually experienced and cunning, but tonight's traps are carefully designed and should be effective."

The old hunter added, "As long as they operate at night, the traps will be very effective at confusing them and making them lose their sense of direction."

The air inside grew increasingly heavy, and everyone's heart hung in the balance, anticipating the battle that was about to unfold.

Suddenly, a few faint noises came from outside. Su Ting jumped up and whispered, "They're here!"

The group quickly went on high alert, grabbed their weapons, and cautiously stepped outside. Moonlight illuminated the woods outside the village, and several dark figures could be vaguely seen sneaking towards the village.

"Split up and proceed!" Su Ting gave the order in a low voice.

Li Wei and the old hunter flanked the enemy from both sides, while Su Ting stayed behind to intercept them from the front. Taking advantage of the darkness, they approached the enemy silently.

The first scout had just stepped into a cleverly disguised trap when chaos erupted. His scream pierced the night, alerting the others.
