Chapter 185 The First Excavation Site

The four of them hid in the dense forest on the mountainside, watching the lively scene in the rift valley from a distance, and listened to Jialan's briefing.

"Here is the first excavation site of the Hongri Mountain ruins. An ancient temple ruins were discovered decades ago. Many explorers from the Western Continent came and dug and took. In the end, there was nothing left, so it became a follow-up A preparation camp for those who enter the mountain. Those who came to us for defense tasks before were asked to assemble here to escort their employers into the mountain and excavate the temple relics."

Lu Ye nodded to express his understanding.

Just relying on how they sensed the source of demons, they could confirm that there was indeed a problem in the mountain.

Lu Ye: "So this is just a camp, and they have to continue into the mountains where they are exploring?"

Jialan: "Yes."

Anjie: "Where exactly is it?"

Thorns laughed: "You little fool, you will know if you follow me!"

Anjie blushed and nodded.

At this moment, I saw a group of people coming back from the mountains one after another. Most of them were locals dressed as husbandmen. They were responsible for carrying various equipment and supplies. There were also a small number of people who were armed personnel and wandered around the periphery of the team of civilian husbands. Gun alert.

It didn't take much effort to identify the key figure. A man in neat clothes, black leather boots, a cane, and a hiking hat followed the group with a leisurely look. He had the most armed bodyguards around him.

Then, they discovered that there was a dispute among this huge team.

Several people like civilians were arguing with this man with a cane. They were very excited and waved their hands continuously to express rejection.

The distance was a bit far, so Lu Ye wanted to get closer and listen to what was being said. After studying it with the three girls, Jialan was left to set up a fire point with a sniper rifle at a high place. Anjie left her to coordinate while he and Thorns sneaked in. Get closer and see if you can hear anything.

Before setting off, I also put on the quantum communication headset and did some simple debugging.

There was no problem with the communication between the several people and it was very clear. However, it was a pity that they could not establish contact with this world. Lu Ye was not disappointed at all. This was also expected.

They were about 20 meters away from the thorns and dived down respectively. Both of them were very careful in their movements and tried not to cause the rocks to slide. Fortunately, there were many trees on the mountain and there were a lot of weeds and rotten leaves on the ground, so it was easy to move down. After walking for tens of meters, they didn't stop until they could vaguely hear the conversation below.

This place is located in a rift valley, and speaking loudly will cause echoes in the mountains, which is convenient for them to eavesdrop.

As soon as they were in position, they saw the man with the cane yell angrily, pick up the cane and hit a civilian husband on the body, but the other man did not resist, and even knelt down and begged.

"Baiyan Mountain is a forbidden area that we have guarded for generations. It is a place that is expressly prohibited from setting foot in the True God's decree... Please, Mr. Luo Wen, we really can't go any further... Setting foot in a forbidden area will be punished by the True God. !”

Mr. Rowan slapped his shoulder with the cane again: "You received the money! You must respect the contract!"

Minhu representative: "We can return the money to you..."

Rowan: "Shut up!"

He angrily threw his crutches to the ground and shouted to an armed bodyguard next to him: "You! Go and find a solution! Tomorrow morning, I want the guide and at least twenty folk to accompany me into the mountains with equipment!"

After saying that, he gave up the crutches, walked into the camp angrily, and got into the tent.

A man who looked like a tour guide picked up the crutches and chased after him.

The bodyguard standing there looked at the civilian husband who was kneeling down, thought for a while, and then took out his gun.

Lu Ye frowned. The behavior of this group of people was full of bandits...

If the people don't want to go into the mountains, do they have to kill people?

Seeing the bodyguard pull out a bright silver pistol, he raised his hand and pointed it at Minfu's head.

Lu Ye asked softly into the call: "Do you want to intervene?"

Jialan was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking, and finally replied softly on the channel: "Not recommended."

Lu Ye looked at the situation and tried to understand Jialan's judgment.The opponent's bodyguards are a team of 20 people. From the equipment point of view, they are all field equipment. They are all equipped with bulletproof vests, which are equipped with walkie-talkies, magazines, and even individual grenades. It can be said that the equipment is very sophisticated.

As for firearms, although he is not familiar with the models of firearms, he knows a basic common sense:
The longer the gun, the higher the accuracy and the farther the shooting range; the thicker the barrel, the larger the caliber, and the stronger the firepower.

The bodyguard team in front of them is equipped with typical long guns and short cannons. The dark gun barrels tell you at a glance that they are high-end goods, not comparable to those of the Liberation Organization or the Temple Guard.

It was even much stronger than the three "Langhao" rifles and the "Sand Owl" sniper rifle they had.

Good equipment usually means well-trained, mature tactics, and tacit cooperation...

If the "absolute power" mercenary that Lu Ye killed alone last time was an elite monster, then there is obviously a group of elite monsters in front of him.

If you activate monsters without permission, you can imagine the consequences.

And it is conceivable that if Jialan uses a sniper rifle to save people, they will face a professional counterattack from the opponent. Unless they kill all the opponents, it can only serve as a harassment. When they retreat, whether the opponent wants to kill or keep them is anything. As usual, nothing has changed.

Therefore, it is not a good time to intervene at this time. It will not solve the problem and will expose one's own side.

Lu Ye took a deep breath, remained patient, and continued to observe.

Fortunately, the bodyguard mercenary did not fire. He pointed the gun at the opponent's head and cursed a few times. Finally, he raised the muzzle of the gun and fired a shot into the sky.

Bang!
The sound of gunfire echoed across the valley, shocking people.

"Tomorrow morning, I want twenty civilians to go into the mountains! I'll pay them three times the wages! Sign up voluntarily! If no one comes, then... we'll talk with guns!"

Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief. The other party still focused on intimidation, and there was no real demonstration of murder.

It seems that the other party is not without scruples.

The head of the bodyguard turned around and gave a few instructions, then followed into the tent, and then the mercenary group took action.

Several machine gunners set up armed sentries on key roads, apparently to prevent civilians from escaping.

There were several other gunmen walking up the mountain carrying their luggage.

"They're going to camp overnight and set up sniper posts. We have to go."

After receiving Jialan's reminder, Lu Ye nodded and called to the thorns. The two quickly went back to the high ground and met Anjie and the others to evacuate.

After traveling for almost two kilometers away from the camp, the four of them found a thick tree in the dense forest that required several people to hug each other. They climbed up one by one and planned to spend the night in the tree.

When it came to survival in the wild in the dense forest, Lu Ye and the other three were all laymen, so it was only right to follow Jialan's arrangements in everything.

Watching her apply insect repellent and snake repellent, use ropes to build a net bed on the tree, and set up several warning mechanisms around it. After a while, a temporary tree nest was built in the middle of the branches like magic.

Anjie was amazed when she saw it and told her to teach her how to do it.

Lu Ye tested his strength on the rope net and found it to be very strong.

The thorns have climbed to the branches of the tree and are swaying happily. With her athletic ability, it is estimated that even the monkeys cannot match her.

"Then let's discuss what to do next?"

Jialan had already taken out a map, circled the location of the ruins excavation site, and then pointed to a place more than ten kilometers away to the north:

"I haven't been to Baiyan Mountain, but it's probably in this area."

　The man with crutches sat on the military chair and murmured to himself: "Twenty civilians are just twenty votes, twenty votes...it's just one chapter..."
