By the time Xiao Yichen and his group arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sun was about to set.

The mountains and forests are always more dangerous at night.

For safety, everyone gathered together.

In order to avoid getting lost, marks were placed on the way into the mountain.

We also agreed on what kind of mark to make if we get lost.

Always carry matches with you.

If you really get lost, there is a way to deal with it.

Several people were holding flashlights.

Zhou Maolin led the way in front.

Xiao Yichen followed closely behind.

Although this forest is not close to Shangwan Village.

But it’s not very far from them.

It's also his territory.

However, the further he walked in, the more confused Xiao Yichen became.

Are you sure there is a cave here?

Are you sure this isn't an enemy trap?

As the surrounding environment becomes more familiar.

Xiao Yichen became more worried.

He is basically as familiar with this place as his own home.

In his impression, there were no caves, tunnels or the like in this place.

Xiao Yichen's face was solemn.

Give Captain Zhang a look to be careful.

However, the lighting was extremely poor at night and Captain Zhang did not notice it.

A few black lines appeared on Xiao Yichen's forehead.

This tacit understanding is too poor.

In desperation, Xiao Yichen had to remind him: "Captain Zhang, please be careful later!"

While Captain Zhang was looking over, he gave him another look.

Thank God, this time, Captain Zhang finally saw it.

After receiving Xiao Yichen's reminder, Captain Zhang's expression became more serious.

While Zhou Maolin wasn't paying attention, he exchanged glances with others.

Everyone was on high alert and ready for action.

Fortunately, there was no movement.

Follow Zhou Maolin to a mountain wall.

Just stop and don't move.

Zhou Maolin pointed to a cliff and said, "This is it."

Everyone looked left and right, but really couldn't see anything.

Some people with hot tempers even want to go up and hit others.

Are you sure this isn't a scam?

Xiao Yichen also looked at the mountain wall.

There was some uncertainty in his eyes.

Is there really a cave here?

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like it!

Unexpectedly, Zhou Maolin first pushed aside some messy weeds, and then, to everyone's surprise, pried open an irregular stone slab.

After opening it, it turned out to be a tunnel.

Deputy Captain Zhao picked up a dead branch, lit it and threw it in. A section of light dropped more than one meter, illuminating a winding passage leading into the mountain.

As the fire grew bigger and the light became clearer, one could clearly see traces of artificial excavation on the walls of the passage.

After a while, the dead branches gradually died out.

The entire passage darkened, and under the eerie moonlight, it looked like a monster with its mouth open.

Want to swallow everyone.

When everyone saw that the dead branches could burn, they concluded that this was the place they could go down.

Fearing an ambush and considering the terrain, it was decided that Xiao Yichen would take three people down first.

The others followed behind at a distance of about several dozen meters.

Zhou Maolin walked in front.

Xiao Yichen followed closely behind.

The entire passage was very narrow, only about one person tall, and Xiao Yichen could barely stand and walk inside.

However, you have to lower your head when you encounter a low place.

The width is only about one meter.

The whole space was dark and damp.

As people entered, a slight strange noise was heard.

Maybe it was the echo of their footsteps.

Or maybe it was the sound of the wind blowing through the cliff face.

The flashlight can only illuminate a small area in front.

Zhou Maolin obediently led the way in front.

No action was taken.

Finally, after walking for a long time, Zhou Maolin stopped and pointed to the rough wooden door nailed with boards in front of him.

"That's it."

Xiao Yichen nodded.

He took out the gun provided by Captain Zhang and pulled the safety.

He walked forward and kicked the wooden door open.

It turned out that the door was not strong at all and broke into pieces immediately.

Xiao Yichen folded his hands, with the gun on top and the flashlight on the bottom.

Look at this space carefully.

Then he suddenly opened fire at a certain place.

The sound of the bullet hitting the flesh came clearly.

Several people rushed to the scene urgently.

Unexpectedly, the person disappeared.

Only a few pools of blood remained on the ground.

Xiao Yichen only had one word: "Chase".

The three of them followed the blood trail and chased out.

Until we entered a village.

Still no one found.

Xiao Yichen saw a house near the foot of the mountain.

A footmark was found next to the single wooden door.

The entire yard and doorway of this family's house are made of mud, with no bricks or cement floors.

So here at the gate, only the middle part is smooth and free of weeds because of the owner's coming in and out and being stepped on.

Near the door on both sides and at the base of the wall.

There are many weeds growing, some lush and some sparse.

Just near the door, a patch of weeds was trampled down.

A little smoother than other places.

Xiao Yichen nodded to several people.

Everyone stood close to the wall and surrounded the place.

Xiao Yichen tried to push it, but the door was locked from the inside.

Rubbing his fingers, Xiao Yichen put away his gun and knocked on the door directly.

"dong dong dong"

The crisp knocking sound was particularly clear against the backdrop of the chirping of various insects.

"Who is it, so late at night?" An old man's hoarse voice came from inside.

Slightly dissatisfied.

Xiao Yichen replied: "Uncle, I went into the mountains to collect firewood. I got lost and have been hungry all day. Can you give me something to eat?"

The old man's hoarse voice came from far away, and he spoke with concern: "Hey, you've been hungry all day, why are you so careless?

You little kids, you just don’t pay attention to safety, you have to be careful when you go up the mountain…”

When he reached the door, he opened it with a creak.

In the dim moonlight, she squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Yichen.

Seeing Xiao Yichen in military uniform, I felt even more distressed.

He quickly invited Xiao Yichen into the house: "Why are you still a PLA comrade? Come in, come in, this is how it is in the mountains. People who often go into the mountains will get lost.

Just wait, I'll find you something to eat. I have some leftover sweet potatoes from the one I cooked tonight. If you don't mind, you can have some too."

Xiao Yichen was also observing the old man.

In his sixties, hunchbacked, with rough skin, dark complexion, and bald head.

The palms are calloused and the fingers are thick.

He was holding a wooden stick in his hand, which looked very old and was shiny black.

It meets the characteristics of an old farmer.

The accent is also authentic local accent.

And he looked calm, not like he was frightened.

Could it be that the man was not discovered after entering the hospital?

No, that person is injured and probably can’t climb over the wall, so he can only go through the door.

There were also bloodstains and footprints at the door.

If they entered secretly, the door should be open.

But when the old man came to open the door just now, the door was clearly closed!

Xiao Yichen attacked instantly, aiming at the old man's neck.

The old man subconsciously took quick action to resist.

The movements are standard and smooth.

This is definitely not a skill that an ordinary farmer can possess.

Although he caught Xiao Yichen's attack, his face looked extremely ugly.

be cheated.

If you want to run away again, there is no chance anymore.

The moment she was distracted, Xiao Yichen grabbed her throat.

After a few seconds, he fainted.

Several people nearby immediately rushed into the courtyard.

I found no one there.

After several searches, bloody clothes were found in a hidden cellar.

After the man fainted, Xiao Yichen also checked on him.

It was discovered that he had been shot in the abdomen.

Well, I finally caught this big fish.

After a sudden interrogation overnight, the clue was brought back to Haishi.

Xiao Yichen caught a big fish here, and a leader of a machinery factory in Hai City felt that he should have caught a small fish and a small shrimp.
