Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world

"rock?"

Yu Feng asked subconsciously.

"Yes, it's a rock."

Maya took a deep breath and slowly said:
“There was indeed another organization here before. There used to be a village near this rainforest where we are now, but the villagers were taken away by the previous organization.”

"This organization called Rock is the same organization that changed its name because they changed their leader. The current leader is called Eagle, I think."

As soon as Maya finished speaking, Lin Beichen and Yu Feng frowned simultaneously.

Lin Beichen had briefly told Yu Feng about what had happened before, so the two of them naturally knew that the venomous snake had followed the man called Eagle.

While it's not quite like releasing venomous snakes back into their dens, the nature of the act is similar.

This is no longer something that Lin Beichen and his partner can decide.

If they wanted to capture Viper and bring him back to China, they would inevitably have to confront the organization called Rock head-on. For Lin Beichen and his companion to complete the mission with just the two of them was nothing short of a pipe dream.

"That……"

Do you know where they are hiding?

Yu Feng asked while stuffing a strip of meat into his mouth.

This was entirely Yu Feng's subconscious action.

"Not far, less than ten miles from that village."

“In this rainforest, there used to be many hunters, not just my master and me, but they were all captured by them later.”

"Even my master and I are doing everything we can to avoid them. If they catch us, then..."

Maya stopped speaking halfway through her sentence.

Lin Beichen could clearly sense a hint of sadness in her voice, suggesting that she had some inexplicable connection with this organization called Rock.

According to Lin Beichen's guess, if the organization called Rock wanted to grow stronger, it would need to recruit people. In Myanmar, it was not uncommon for such organizations to conscript men.

They probably captured hunters because hunters make a living in the rainforest, many of them know how to shoot, and they've all seen blood. With a little training, they can be excellent war machines, which is exactly what they want.

"In my opinion, what they do earns them much more money than you hunters. Don't you want a better life?"

It was Yu Feng who spoke. Clearly, this kid had remembered the interrogation method again. He insisted on asking questions about things that others didn't want to talk about.

"They will kill people."

"We become hunters simply to survive, not to make money that goes against our conscience."

This time, it was Ma Li who spoke.

Maya had already shut her mouth, clearly because Yu Feng had touched a nerve.

“Maya’s parents were also hunters, but the place she originally lived was closer to the Rock Organization. Her parents were among the first to be captured and were killed for resisting.”

Ma Li continued coldly.

"sorry."……

Even if Yu Feng was slow-witted, he realized at this moment that he had asked a question he shouldn't have, and spoke apologetically.

"fine."

Maya raised her hand to wipe her face, her voice tinged with laughter, but Lin Beichen could hear a tremor hidden in that laughter.

Lin Beichen understood that this was just a facade of strength on her part, after all, Yu Feng had reopened the wounds in her heart.

"The fugitive we were chasing has been captured by their people. If possible, we would appreciate it if you could point us to his exact location."

Lin Beichen asked sincerely with a smile.

Are you sure you can wipe them out?

"There are hundreds of them, and they have weapons like mortars and individual rocket launchers!"

"You have to understand, our Myanmar government has no power to manage these people. We can only let them grow stronger. As long as they don't go too far, no one will care."

As soon as Lin Beichen finished speaking, Ma Li poured cold water on their enthusiasm.

Individual rocket launcher.

Lin Beichen frowned slightly.

This is enough to show that the opponent's power has become so great that he and Yu Feng cannot contend with it.

However, they currently have no communication equipment such as radios.

When they crossed that river before, they basically left all their electronic devices behind where they swam across.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng hesitated to think too deeply about what the other party meant by "excessive".

In Myanmar, these illegal organizations are extremely brazen, a level of arrogance that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary Chinese citizens.

They committed all sorts of evil deeds, burning, killing, looting, and doing whatever they pleased.

"This isn't the first time our country has helped your country wipe out these organizations."

When Lin Beichen mentioned this, he felt no pride, only sorrow.

It is a tragedy and a wound of our times that a country needs the assistance of its neighboring countries for basic domestic security and counter-terrorism work.

After hearing this, Ma Li fell silent, and for a moment, only the hurried footsteps of the group remained.

What are your needs right now?

After walking for more than ten minutes, Maya suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Beichen and Yu Feng.

Her eyes were filled with hatred and murderous intent, as if she wished she could tear those people to pieces.

"We need devices that can connect us to the outside world, such as telephones."

At this point, Lin Beichen had no intention of being polite to the other party.

If he could inform his superiors as soon as possible, and after communicating with the other party's officials, he and Yu Feng would basically be out of the picture.

It wasn't that Lin Beichen and Yu Feng didn't want to continue managing things here, but given their current physical condition, they were simply too weak to do so, so it was better to leave everything to the rear.

"Telephone?"

Maya paused for a moment, then sighed and said, "Those people have installed signal jammers all around here, and there aren't many places with a signal in the rainforest to begin with..."

Maya didn't finish her sentence, but Lin Beichen and Yu Feng already understood what she meant.

This kind of place is like some mountainous areas in China. Even if there is a cell tower nearby, there is no signal at all if there are one or two mountains in between.

The signal was blocked, mainly due to the mountains and various vegetation in the area.

The situation in the rainforest is only worse; it's perfectly normal to have no signal here.

"Boss."

Yu Feng frowned and looked at Lin Beichen.

He was asking Lin Beichen whether he should part ways with the other party now.

After all, even if they followed the other party to their place, they could only recuperate and would be unable to contact the outside world.

"Let's recover first."

Lin Beichen remained calm in the face of Yu Feng's question.

At times like this, there's no need to overthink it.

Now, his and Yu Feng's primary task is to recover from their injuries.

He and Yu Feng lost contact with headquarters, and someone will definitely be paying attention to this. Even without the intelligence they provided, headquarters won't stand idly by.

"Ah."

“Friends from neighboring countries, you can come with us, but you have to throw away your clothes. These clothes are too conspicuous.”

The old man, who had been silent until now, finally spoke.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng both nodded.

"Then thank you very much, sir."

Lin Beichen smiled and expressed his goodwill.

"No need for thanks. We have a common enemy. If we can really eliminate the Rock Organization, it will be a great thing for us and for the villagers nearby."

The old man smiled and nodded to Lin Beichen and the others.

The group continued on their way until the sky began to lighten, when they finally arrived at a simple wooden hut.

The hut was small and built on two connected large trees.

The room was very simple, with only some dry grass casually thrown on the ground.

Maya and Mali briefly looked around the cabin before lying down on the straw to sleep.

Clearly, this was commonplace for these hunters.

The old man didn't go to sleep. Instead, he took some dried herbs from the wall and chewed them. After a while, he spat them out and said to Lin Beichen, "Friend from the neighboring country, please apply this. It will be very good for your wound."

Lin Beichen did not resist at all and unbuttoned his shirt as the other party asked.

As soon as his shirt was opened, a pungent stench wafted out from Lin Beichen's wound.

Even Lin Beichen himself couldn't help but frown.

It is obvious that the flesh in the wound has become infected, inflamed, and necrotic.

Compared to Lin Beichen's wound, the fang marks left by the python on Yu Feng had already healed completely.

"Boss... I'm afraid we'll have to remove the necrotic tissue before we can apply any medicine to this wound."

As Yu Feng spoke, he couldn't help but swallow hard. This was a kind of pain that most people couldn't bear.

Lin Beichen gritted his teeth and said calmly, "You dig!"

After speaking, Lin Beichen looked around the room, finally picked up a wooden stick from the side, put it in his mouth, and then handed the dagger in his hand to Yu Feng.

Yu Feng looked at Lin Beichen, took a deep breath, and took the dagger with slightly trembling hands.

Seeing this, Lin Beichen rolled his eyes at Yu Feng.

This dagger has been used countless times in the rainforest. To just stab it like that is no different from getting the wound infected again.
Lin Beichen spat out the wooden stick, looked at the old man beside him with some helplessness, and asked, "Sir, do you have a fire?"

The old man nodded and said, "I remember there was a kerosene lamp inside, and there should still be some fuel in it, but you'll have to wait a while."

After saying that, the old man began rummaging through the small hut filled with hay.

Yu Feng scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly; he had been so anxious that he had forgotten about it.

Before long, the old man found a kerosene lamp. However, he didn't start a fire by taking out a lighter as Lin Beichen had expected. Instead, he took out two dark stones from his pocket and kept striking them together.

Lin Beichen shrugged.

In this rainforest, sometimes carrying a lighter is not as practical as using a flint and steel.

The weather in the rainforest is humid, and a lighter may suddenly fail to light, while a flint may not be affected.

"Snapped--!"

A moment later, the old man lit the kerosene lamp with a flint and steel. He handed the lamp to Lin Beichen, then pointed to the wall not far away and said, "Those are herbs. Take them if you need them."

Lin Beichen nodded, and the old man leaned against the wall of the small house in the distance, closing his eyes to rest. Before long, a series of snores could be heard.

Lin Beichen had no time to pay attention to the old man at the moment and told Yu Feng to start treating the wound.

After briefly disinfecting the knife tip over a kerosene lamp, Yu Feng began to cut away the necrotic flesh.

"Zi la——!"

The scalding hot knife tip pierced Lin Beichen's wound, and the warmth, accompanied by excruciating pain, made Lin Beichen involuntarily bite down on the piece of wood in his mouth.

Intense pain surged into Lin Beichen's mind like a tidal wave, and he almost fainted.

Yu Feng moved slowly to carefully remove all the necrotic flesh. He didn't finish cutting a wound no bigger than four fingers until only half the oil in the kerosene lamp remained.

Every minute and every second of that time was torture for Lin Beichen.

After the wound was removed, Yu Feng casually tore off a piece of fabric from the inside of his combat uniform and used it to bandage Lin Beichen's wound.

After doing all this, Lin Beichen finally fell into a deep sleep after an unknown amount of time.

When Lin Beichen awoke again, the sun was already high in the sky. The old man and Maya's group had clearly been waiting for some time. After briefly sharing the smoked meat the old man had offered, the group continued their journey.

It wasn't until dusk that Lin Beichen and Yu Feng were led by the old man to a small cabin in the woods, about ninety square meters in size.

The area around the small house was kept very clean, and there was a small yard with flattened yellow earth on the ground.

Perhaps to prevent snakes and insects from crawling in from the woods, no plants were planted in the yard.

This is where we live.

"I'm going to the village tomorrow to exchange some supplies with everyone. Do you want to come along?"

Maya pointed to the black tiger skin that had just been drying in the yard not far away. She meant to say that she wanted to take the tiger skin to the village to exchange for some reward, but she didn't know how to express it in a way that Lin Beichen and the other person could understand, so she said "exchange".

"Won't our going arouse suspicion?"

Lin Beichen smiled at Maya subconsciously.

Due to their training, Lin Beichen and Yu Feng both have relatively dark skin.

But wouldn't the presence of two unfamiliar faces in such a secluded mountain village arouse suspicion?

Maya smiled and told Lin Beichen and the other person that some unfamiliar faces would occasionally appear in the vicinity.

After all, in this border region where criminal activity is rampant, many people from Lin Beichen's country come here because of the rumors about monthly salaries of tens of thousands. Some of them also go to the nearest village to contact the villagers. This is not unusual.

After a brief discussion, Lin Beichen and Yu Feng agreed to go and take a look together tomorrow.

Silent all night.

Before they knew it, it was the morning of the second day.

Yu Feng and Lin Beichen are both in good physical condition. After two days of recovery, the wound on Lin Beichen's chest has already scabbed over. As long as he doesn't do strenuous exercise, there shouldn't be any accidents.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng followed Maya, walking quickly toward the village she had mentioned.

Lin Beichen felt no strain at all during the journey.

Earlier, Lin Beichen was physically exhausted due to excessive blood loss. Although he is still weak, after two days of rest, walking on this mountain road is relatively easy for him. After all, his previous cross-country weight training was not for nothing.

The village Maya mentioned wasn't far from where she lived. Lin Beichen and Yu Feng arrived near the village in less than two hours.

Looking into the distance, the village was completely obscured by vegetation, and there was no trace of it at all.

It wasn't until he got closer that Lin Beichen could see what the village looked like.

The village is small, with probably fewer than forty households. There is a small river at the entrance of the village, and at this moment, many women are washing clothes by the river.

The villagers saw that Maya was holding a piece of black leather and all turned to look at her from a distance.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng stood beside Maya, naturally attracting the stares of the villagers. (End of Chapter)
