Chapter 349 (5000 words)
Hearing this, Darryl turned his eyes to the front again. This is an open space of hundreds of square meters. The rest of the place will be covered by tree canopies more or less, resulting in not enough light. There are no trees here, and under the direct sunlight, The weeds are extremely dense. Although the weather has turned cold, these weeds have not withered, and the most lush places can even reach the height of one person.
But at this time, the grass in this clearing was all sloping around, as if being bent by a thug.
“This is?”
“Helicopter.”
Looking at this familiar scene, Lu Jiayi couldn’t help thinking of something that worried him a lot. Maybe the crm people really found them.
After all, among the forces he was familiar with, they were the only ones who had the strength to send helicopters. What he had to worry about now was, who was taken away, or did Glenn and the others use their weapons to force each other back, and both sides made a step?
Without hesitation for too long, it is impossible to infer what happened based on the current clues. The most important thing now is to find the escaped survivors in order to obtain more information from them.
Suppressing the faint uneasiness in their hearts, the two continued to chase after the traces.
Another half hour passed.
“Shasha…Lu, we found them.”
“Where?”
…
Two hours later, everyone gathered again, and the first thing that caught the eye was Glenn’s thin frame, and he was so recognizable in the hat.
However, Glenn looked very embarrassed at this time, with black and red blood all over his body, a hole was scratched in his leg, his fair thighs were looming, and the rifle hanging around his neck was also crooked, leaning on his back. Rest in an armored vehicle.
The rest of the people also looked miserable. Big with a long bow on his face was covered in black mud. At first glance, he looked more like a walking corpse than a walking corpse.
The survivors in the highland community of more than 50 people are much better, but they are all scared, all of them are pale, and even in this situation, a few women just huddled in the corner with their children and dared not get up. .
However, there were also a few people who looked equally dirty, and one of them was holding a machete. The red and black on the blade told the others that they were all involved in the battle.
Glenn was a little out of strength. He was closing his eyes and pouring a bottle of water into his mouth.
He finally opened his eyes when he heard the footsteps, and the first thing he saw was Lu Jiayi walking towards him.
“You’re fine, that’s great!”
Getting up and hugging Lu Jiayi, Darryl just nodded to him. This level is already a sign of his closeness.
“Lu! Our people were taken away.”
Before he let go, Glenn’s anxious voice could be heard in his ears.
Already mentally prepared for this matter, Lu Jiayi signaled him not to worry and speak slowly.
Glenn also realized that what he said was too general, took two more sips of water, and then slowed down his speech.
“Lu, Leon was taken away. The other party has a helicopter. It’s the person from that organization.”
Lu Jiayi knew exactly who he was talking about, but he still didn’t believe that the crm could find this place. If it was really the behavior of the entire organization, then Glenn and the others probably wouldn’t survive.
“Tell me in detail, when did you meet each other? How many of them are there?”
Glenn struggled to remember what happened last night, and it took him a long time to organize the language.
“Not long after you contacted me last night, we switched roads. After about ten minutes of driving, we suddenly heard something hit the car, and then there was no movement. We drove all the way for twenty minutes, and then the bus The car ran out of gas, and I got out of the car to check and found that the gas tank was leaking.”
Having said this, his expression became a little angry, and it was obvious that they were attacked next.
“Because it was the middle of the night and the line of sight was not good, no one was found even when the infrared device was turned on, and we didn’t know where we were going at the time. I discussed with Leon and planned to take everyone back on foot. We were afraid of the previous attack. Our men came after him.”
“Finally, we decided to walk along the edge of the woods, so that at least it would not be easy to be found. I didn’t expect those people to be waiting in front of us long ago and kidnapped Leon while we were not paying attention. I found it there, but the plane had already taken off, and I only had time to see a shadow.”
“But it’s only those people who use helicopters, aren’t they? We killed a team of them last time, and these people must be here for revenge, Lu, we have to find them as soon as possible!”
After listening, Lu Jiayi couldn’t help but fell into thought.
The last team that solved the crm was just because the other party was chasing them, and after a few people were dealt with, they left almost non-stop, thinking that the other party should not be able to find them.
The most important thing is that Franco, who defected from crm before, said that as far as he knows, the other party has no means of satellite monitoring, at least they can only access satellite phones.
Assuming that it was crm who attacked them this time, it means that their base is likely to have been exposed. With this organization’s skills, it is very likely to kill those forces who dare to resist. Crm pays great attention to confidentiality.
Just the fact that he might know that they exist is already a reason to destroy himself, not to mention the people who killed them.
But the base is safe and sound.
Either they just arrived here and haven’t found themselves yet, or these people are another force, maybe Glenn happened to pass by them, and these people became greedy, but because these people’s luggage was not around, they found that there was no Under any circumstances, they choose to arrest someone, go back and find out before taking action.
If it is the former, then they will usher in the biggest crisis after the apocalyptic outbreak of the ideal town, but if it is the latter, then they will be very safe, because the captured Leon knows nothing about the situation of the ideal town.
The first task now is to find out who the other party is.
“Rick, Darryl, big, you come with me, Michonne, you are responsible for taking everyone back to the base, pay attention on the way.”
“I’ll go with you”
Glenn ate a little something, and now he has recovered a lot. He has been worried about Leon’s safety. Seeing that Lu Jiayi obviously wanted to go back, he also stood up and wanted to go there together.
Seeing his firm attitude, Lu Jiayi did not stop him. As soon as the five people got into the car, they saw that Wells had brought people over from a distance, and a dozen cars drove over in a hurry. After picking up these people, they left quickly.
Saying goodbye to the large group, the five drove all the way down the road to Glenn where they were attacked.
The car drove very fast, and it only took ten minutes to come to the vicinity.
“I can’t remember well, it’s probably around here. I remember the crashing sound that I heard after driving for a while after an intersection.”
Glenn tried hard to recall what happened last night, but in the darkness outside, there were not many details he could remember.
Seeing this, Lu Jiayi simply accelerated forward, and within a minute, he saw the intersection.
“It’s here, this is the intersection, and I paid attention to this sign at the time.”
Now that the reference has been found, it’s easy to talk about it next, and it took almost no effort to find the place where they were ambushed.
“Follow me and Daryl, and watch your surroundings.”
After walking into the woods, Lu Jiayi and Daryl separated from left to right, and found some clues in an open space in the woods with almost no effort.
Atlanta has a humid tropical climate. Even in winter, there are very few particularly cold times every year. The average temperature throughout the year is around 17 or 18 degrees, and there is plenty of rain, so it is not particularly cold in winter.
This also allowed the Atlanta Anniversary to be covered with a lot of vegetation, with trees all growing unusually tall over the years.
The dense canopy blocked the sunlight like an umbrella, and the five of them walked forward cautiously. Glenn and Big held a stick they didn’t know where to pick up in their left and right hands, and kept fiddling with the bushes on both sides.
“Hiss.”
Darryl, who had been exploring the road ahead, suddenly stopped and stared at a place for a long time before making a hissing sound behind him.
Lu Jiayi was the first to lean over. Sure enough, he saw a string of inconspicuous traces of human activities on the ground, so he squatted down to take a look.
“There are at least three people, there are traces on both sides, let’s look forward.”
Following the intermittent traces all the way, the five walked in the woods for a full hour.
Finally, the emperor pays off.
It turned out to be a wooden house.
It seems to be a forester’s wooden house. The whole is built with whole logs. It is more like an enlarged version of the wilderness survival shelter than a house.
The house had no windows, and the roof was paved with grass blades. If it weren’t for the fact that there were two clothes hanging outside the house, several people would have wondered if anyone really lived here.
Lu Jiayi found a relatively hidden recess, which was still a few hundred meters away from the wooden house, and instructed a few people to sit there and rest quietly. He himself found another place that was more conducive to observation.
I heard Franco say that crm soldiers will be equipped with thermal imaging equipment. Although they will not use it all the time, they must be guarded.
He set up the monitoring equipment at the first time, and found some bushes and made a camouflage with twigs, only a pair of eyes were exposed on one face.
“Let me see how holy you are.”
He shrank his body to hide himself more thoroughly, but his eyes didn’t leave the wooden house for a second.
I just observed the surrounding environment roughly, but now I finally calm down, Lu Jiayi also carefully looked at the situation around the wooden house.
Through the binoculars, the details of the wooden house can be seen at a glance. Only now did Lu Jiayi notice that the logs on which the wooden house was built looked very new. In order to guard against the walking dead in the woods, these people arranged a circle around the wooden house to reject horses, leaving only the main entrance. There was a very small entrance, and a wooden box more than one meter high was blocked there, just to seal the entrance.
Refuse was trapped in a few walking corpses, and the spikes were deeply stuck in their bones, making them unable to move, and as these mindless guys struggled unconsciously, those spikes got deeper and deeper. The bodies of two have even been pierced, and thick wooden spikes protruded from the back.
There is a clearing out outside the yard, with an area of three or four hundred square meters. There is a dilapidated car parked in the corner of the open space. Everything looks so ordinary, even if I follow him all the way. I can’t believe there will be a group of people living here, and they have also captured Leon.
At most, I think this is a survival hut built by someone who likes to hunt before the end of the world.
But in addition, the wooden house can be said to be very simple. If the actual situation is only what he sees, the number of people on the other side will not exceed seven or eight, which is the limit.
It was after ten o’clock in the morning, and he didn’t feel sleepy at all after he hadn’t slept all night. Instead, he felt more and more excited.
In an instant, he seemed to be back when he was on a mission. Back then, when he was on an investigation mission, it was common for him to lie in a hidden spot for a few days and nights. Since he traveled to The Walking Dead, he rarely encountered such a situation that required him to take action himself. Well, for the most part, killing some walking corpses isn’t challenging at all.
Darryl and the others were wearing walking corpse masks on their heads at this time, and they were also communicating in low voices.
“Glen, you and Rick sleep for a while, and Big and I are on guard first.”
“Forget it, I can’t sleep, let me be vigilant, you and Rick have a rest.”
…
Time passed so slowly. After about an hour, the wooden house in the distance finally moved. Lu Jiayi put away the telescope and put his right eye on the scope of the sniper rifle.
The door of the wooden house was pushed open with a squeak, and a bald man came out with a gun on his back. This man was muscular and wore a gray vest, but he was a little far away, so he couldn’t see his face clearly.
The big man seemed to be very cautious. First, he carefully observed the surroundings until he felt that there was no danger. Then he walked up to a trapped walking corpse on the edge of the yard. This walking corpse was obviously a woman before he died. The long skirt of the base color is whimpering and waving his arms to the big man with effort, opening and closing his mouth.
The big man looked at it for a while, and suddenly he smiled and pulled out a machete. With two swipes, he cut off two waving arms. Then he carefully used the tip of the knife to slash a few times at the corner of the walking corpse’s mouth, and the sharp blade cut through the flesh and blood. The walking corpse who lost his arm still kept opening his mouth to tear off a piece of flesh and blood from the big man, but he opened the wound at the corner of his mouth, looking like a clown from a distance.
The big man’s bad taste was satisfied, and he let out a loud laugh, and then he undid the belt and urinated at the walking corpse.
After solving the personal problem, the big man shivered comfortably and walked into the wooden house again.
There was a sound of footsteps in Lu Jiayi’s earphones, and then he calmed down, as if there was no one in the wooden house.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lu Jiayi gradually felt that something was not right. According to the performance of the person just now, it is impossible to be so quiet, right?
Even if he is the only one in the room, there should be some movement. Is it possible that he will lie down as soon as he enters the room?
Just in case, Lu Jiayi continued to wait for half an hour, and it was noon.
Listening to the various noises collected by the monitoring equipment, but there was no movement in the wooden house, he cautiously retreated.
“How about it?”
As soon as he reached the edge of the dirt slope, Glenn found him, the gun in his hand was put away, and his eyes gleamed with anticipation.
Sighing, Lu Jiayi shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, Glenn thought that he didn’t find it, and his face was disappointed. He really wanted to save Leon, not only because the other party was a doctor, but mainly because this young man had a very good appetite for him, and he was a very optimistic and kind guy.
Seeing that Glenn had misunderstood him, Lu Jiayi sat directly on the ground and explained.
“There is someone in the room, but strangely no sound can be heard.”
“What do you mean? Maybe they fell asleep? Or didn’t speak at all?”
Rick slept for a while, and felt a lot more comfortable. He patted Big, who was still making up his sleep, awake, and said at the same time.
Lu Jiayi also explained in detail what he had seen and heard, and also expressed his doubts.
“Could it be that they haven’t come back yet, and there is only himself here?”
After listening to his words, Daryl frowned and put forward his own guess.
Lu Jiayi nodded when he heard the words.
“It’s not impossible, but I stayed there for almost two hours, but there was no sound in the room. Either the other party was well trained, or it was just what you said.”
“What’s next? Let’s just rush over and catch him.”
Big clenched the longbow in his hand and looked at a few people expectantly.
“No, he has a gun in his hand, and I can see that he is definitely trained to be alert. We will continue to wait. If there is no movement by this time tomorrow, we are considering whether to arrest people directly, otherwise it will only be stunned.”
The five returned to the road, drove the car to another road that was slightly closer to the wooden house, then drove the car along the gap between the trees, and stopped at a place only more than 200 meters away from the wooden house.
Lu Jiayi quickly disguised the car, and then a few people quietly began to stand guard.
The waiting time was the slowest. All five of them didn’t sleep all night, and gradually began to take turns to rest.
Time to come that night.
da da da~
The sound of a helicopter was faintly heard in the sky, and Daryl, who was on duty, woke up a few people immediately.
The sound is getting louder and louder~www.readmtl.com~ But the canopy above the head is too dense, and it is impossible to see the situation in the sky.
Fortunately, after only a few minutes, a few beams of light hit the ground above the open space in the distance, shining a bright snow around the wooden house. The wind pressure brought by the propeller blew the weeds close to the ground, and the wooden house was also bright. There was an orange light, and during the day the big man walked out of the wooden house wearing a coat that couldn’t see the color clearly.
The helicopter stopped steadily in the open space, and then a few people walked down from it. Lu Jiayi observed these people through the telescope. Because of the backlight, many details could not be seen at all. Five people.
After they all walked into the wooden house, the helicopter left, and the surrounding area soon returned to the previous silence. The only difference was that there were many roars of scattered walking corpses all around.
They all walked towards the wooden house, but were stopped by the outskirts, but they still went forward stupidly. struggling.
On the Humvee, all five of them stared intently at the movement in the distance, until the helicopter left, Glenn gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
“Lu, it’s them, I know that helicopter!”
