Chapter 21 All are young children
Just as he was searching carefully in the darkness, the two soldiers opposite him exclaimed. Lei Zhenyun hurriedly brought his gun to them. When he got here and took a closer look, he found a Japanese corpse on the ground, but his head was not on his neck, but was thrown aside and smashed like a rotten watermelon.
When Lei Zhenyun carefully looked at the wound in the light, he suddenly felt disgusted. There was no neat incision on the Japanese army's neck, and it seemed like something had pulled off the head. Not only was the wound seriously uneven, but there were also many tendon blood vessels coming out of the cavity in a twisted manner.
One soldier turned around and vomited a few times in disgust. Another soldier said, "How could he die like this?"
Finally, the soldier overturned the body with a gun barrel and said in horror: "Is this... taken down?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other two soldiers looked up in panic and looked around. Lei Zhenyun knew in his heart that this might be the hand of the human-shaped monster he encountered. But if he told this, he was afraid that he would scare these people, so he smiled and said, "What did he pull it down? This was when he accidentally jammed his neck when he went down the tree, and the down force brought his head down."
The three soldiers looked at each other. They didn't believe what Lei Zhenyun said, but they couldn't think of what was going on. One soldier hesitated and said, "Then is this head flattened?"
It's really impossible to say that this is really a perfect match. Could it be that an elephant suddenly appeared and stepped on the Japanese head? Not to mention that it was someone else, even Lei Zhenyun himself wouldn't believe it. Such a big living creature appeared from where?
But apart from the elephant, he really couldn't think of anything that could stomp the head like this, so he had to deal with it: "Even if there was something to stomp the head, it would definitely not be a carnivore, otherwise he would have taken the devil away long ago. As long as we don't mess with the grass, it won't mess with us. Search for this Japanese soldier, clean it up, and we will go back to fetch water."
If the explanation is not understood, I can only use the words to make them feel at ease. However, this is good, which can make them more careful. The Japanese have already scattered ambush here and may not be able to encounter them any more. I have to think of a way, otherwise when Lin Xiu and Veronica pass by, they might be shot by them.
But it is not easy to search them out. Even a dozen people can't withstand this loss. The best way is to find another way to go. The Japanese soldiers are now distributed around the roads stepped on by the Expeditionary Force. As long as they are far enough, they will be much safer. After all, the Japanese don't have the idleness to set up ambush in places where no one goes.
Before going to bed, Lei Zhenyun picked a few handfuls of herbs that smoked mosquitoes and covered them in the fire. The soldiers in this squad were really heartbroken. They might not have had a good sleep for many days. As soon as the insects crawled and mosquito bites were gone, they all fell asleep. Even the alert sentries began to wilt.
How could this work? But Lei Zhenyun knew that he had slept for a whole night last night so he was so energetic, so he had to get up and replace a sentry. It would be better to keep an eye on him for a while. He was not at ease with it.
He squatted on the ground with a gun in his arms. While he was alert, he was planning the route he would take after dawn. The best way was to lead these people to start climbing the mountain. Now he was walking in a low-lying position at the bottom of the valley. This place was easier to walk on than above, but there were more mosquitoes and miasma, and if there was heavy rain, it would still be dangerous.
Thinking of this, Lei Zhenyun felt a sudden heart. Since he entered the Wild Man Mountain, the sky above his head could no longer be seen, and it was even more impossible to tell whether it was a shady or a sunny person. If he encountered an outbreak of mountain torrents, he would be all over.
My ability in the mountains and forests has really deteriorated. In the past, I could have a clear idea of the humidity on the stones and wood, but now I can't grasp it correctly. No, I have to go up to the tree to see. If it really rains heavily, I will be in danger soon.
The goal was to climb to that height, and it was not easy to climb to that height. After all, no matter how thin he was, he was much heavier than things like birds and squirrels. After greeting the sentries, Lei Zhenyun climbed up a big tree with barefoots.
A sentry looked at Lei Zhenyun in shock and murmured: "Are our squad leader named Lei changed from a monkey?"
But the deputy Ma Ban came out of nowhere and whispered: "Don't say this to the sir, be more energetic, don't let the Japanese touch it."
After he was trained, Ma Ban deputy stood at the sentry position with a gun. The sentry looked at Ma Ban and said, "Part mate, your sentry is there."
Deputy Ma Ban said impatiently: "I can see it over there, so I'll stand here."
The sentry knew that this was the deputy Ma Ban was afraid of not daring to go by himself, so he wanted to tease him a few words, but seeing that he looked like he was red-headed and had no courage, so he had to swallow the words into his stomach.
In fact, the deputy Ma Ban guarded the tree that Lei Zhenyun went up. The others were still second. The mission assigned by the superiors would not be completed without Lei Zhenyun. Although he had no combat experience, he was a lie, and the orders from the superiors were even bigger than those of the mountain. The deputy Ma Ban started to figure out how to block the gun for Lei Zhenyun at critical moments.
Lei Zhenyun on the tree is in trouble now. He is not familiar with the upper part of the tree, so when he climbs to two-thirds, he can no longer find a place for him to step down. All the branches that can be touched cannot resist his weight, and he must fall down after climbing up.
He had no choice but to cut off a branch with a knife, trying to cut it into a stick and push the leaves away to look at the night sky outside. But he had just finished cutting the branch, but he heard a mess below, and then he heard someone shouting, "Wolf, wolf..." Then there was a gunshot.
Lei Zhenyun was stunned when he heard this. Wolves? Are there such stupid wolves? There should be wolves in this forest, but wolves are not crowded in this tropical rainforest in summer, because the food here is easy to find, and there is no need to catch prey that is too big, and there is no need to gather in groups at all.
It should be a dog, the kind of wild dog I have seen. They are not afraid of people or fire. This must be because they feel that people are asleep and no one pays attention. They come to the soldiers' fields to pick up garbage and eat them.
What else can I shoot in this situation? They are too brave, so they are not afraid of gunfire to attract the Japanese?
No, I have to move immediately. After quickly getting down the tree, he ran to the half-light and half-dark fire pit. He used soil covers to extinguish the fire and said, "Don't shoot, let's pack up."
These soldiers had been awakened by the exclamation and gunfire, and were following the one who was leading the charge to shoot randomly. When they heard Lei Zhenyun's order, they immediately began to pack their luggage. A soldier said with lingering fear: "Don't wait for dawn to leave?"
