The old man was overjoyed when he saw the sheep running toward him in fear. He already understood that the sheep that had just escaped had been driven back by this magical kitten. Only then did he feel truly relieved.
, knowing that the two people who suddenly appeared in front of them were indeed Chinese soldiers and not bad people.
Not long after, a group of sheep that had scattered around were already being driven towards the old man by the little white cat. A group of goats ran towards the old man in panic, making frightened calls.
Wan Lin saw that the old man's expression had calmed down, and then he asked with a smile: "Uncle, we are an army training in the mountains. Do you live in the small mountain village in front?"
The old man quickly replied: "I live there, and I went out to herd sheep early in the morning. Thank you for meeting you today, otherwise I would have lost a lot of sheep. This is my treasure for food.
Thank you so much!” The old man still doesn’t understand why these sheep suddenly panicked and ran away.
As the old man spoke, he looked at Wan Lin and Lin Zisheng up and down: "Are you doing an exercise? Why didn't you see other troops?"
Wan Lin quickly replied: "Yes, we are conducting an exercise. This is a small-unit exercise. There are not many troops participating. Old man, when you were herding sheep just now, did you see any strangers passing by?" After saying that, he looked a little bit.
Looking at the old man nervously.
When the old man heard his question, he frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "I drove the sheep out before dawn. The sky was gray at that time, and when I drove the sheep out of the village, it was
I vaguely saw three or four people walking in the mountains, not walking very fast."
As he spoke, he lifted his feet and walked a few steps back along the hillside, pointing to the slightly glowing white river in the distance and continued: "By the way, they went upstream from that river. I was still wondering at the time.
, why did someone come out so early, and the upstream direction of the river is deep in the mountains, there is no village at all, I wonder what they are doing?"
After saying that, he looked at Wan Lin and said with a smile: "Hahaha, now it seems that they should also be the ones you practiced. I wonder why they went to that uninhabited mountainous area." Wan Lin was overjoyed when he heard what the old man said.
, he immediately concluded in his heart that what the old man said must be the target of his pursuit, and these extremely vicious criminals were busy running away for their lives and did not enter the village to harm the people.
He quickly smiled and said: "Yes, we are conducting a tracking exercise now and are looking for these people." After that, he looked at the mountains and asked: "Uncle, you are very familiar with this mountainous area, you know
Is there a suitable place for Tibetans?”
When the old man heard his answer, he said with a smile: "Hahaha, you have asked the right person. The old man has lived in this mountainous area all his life. I know the hundreds of square kilometers of mountains and rivers here like the back of my hand."
The old man was very excited when he saw that the two soldiers had a very kind attitude and helped him drive back the lost sheep, so he answered all questions. The old man took Wan Lin and walked a few steps towards the side hillside.
Pointing in the direction of the village in front, he continued: "Look there, our village is on the hillside, and the white light below is the small river I just mentioned. The few people I saw in the morning were walking upstream along the small river.
"
While listening to the old man's introduction, Wan Lin raised his sniper rifle and looked through the scope at the hillsides and rivers in the distance. As he looked, he asked: "Uncle, in the mountainous area upstream of the river, is there any place suitable for stealth?"
?”
"That's a lot." The old man replied, and he raised his finger to point to the rolling mountains in the distance and continued: "The terrain in our mountainous area is very complex. There are many caves in some high mountains, and you can hide in them. There are also geological conditions in some mountains.
The structure is relatively complex, and it often collapses during heavy rains, which is what you call mudslides."
When Wan Lin heard this, his heart moved. He moved his gun and looked towards the small mountain village, and then asked: "Why are the houses in your small mountain village so new? They all seemed to have been built in the past two years." At this time, he stood there.
On the hillside, the small village halfway up the mountainside in the distance was clearly reflected in his scope. The tile-roofed houses built against the mountain indeed looked very new.
The old man smiled and said, "Yes, I have to thank the government for this. We just moved from the mountains upstream two years ago. In recent years, the mountain where our village was originally located has often experienced mudslides, which is very dangerous."
"During a heavy rain the year before last, a family in our village was buried by mud and rocks suddenly washed down from the mountain. Fortunately, there was only one old man in the family at that time, and the rest of the family went to visit relatives, so we were able to avoid it.
The whole family was buried under it. Later, there were several mudslides around our village, so the government mobilized us to move here and built us new houses here. Each of our families only spent a small amount of money.
money."
As the old man spoke, he turned his face and looked towards the mountains in the distance, with a grateful look on his face. Wan Lin raised his gun and observed the mountains in the distance while quietly listening to the old man's narration. At this time, he heard the old man mention
He thought about the old village and asked thoughtfully: "Are there still those old houses?"
The old man replied: "The old house is still there, but no one has lived there for a long time. Last year when I was herding sheep, I went over to take a look. The houses there used to be in disrepair, but now no one lives in them. Most of the houses are in disrepair.
It is dilapidated, some houses and courtyard walls have collapsed."
When the old man said this, he let out a long sigh: "Oh, that's the place where I have lived for almost all my life. I felt really uncomfortable when I saw the dilapidated appearance. I will never dare to go there again."
Wan Lin put down his sniper rifle and turned to look at Lin Zisheng next to him, and both of them nodded secretly. At this time, both of them realized that the old village the old man mentioned should be a place where they could hide.
Lin Zisheng then put down the sniper rifle he was holding, reached out and took out a map from his tactical vest. He raised the map in front of the old man and asked: "Uncle, can you tell me the location of this old village? We are now
It’s at this location.”
The old man lowered his head and glanced at the map held by Lin Zisheng, and replied with a smile: "Hehehe, I don't know how to read your kind of map. Besides, I am old and dim, so I can't see clearly the things marked on your map."
As he said that, he raised his hand to take Zisheng's hand, pointed to the small river in the distance and said: "Do you suspect that those companions have hidden in our old house? You don't need to look at the map, I just tell you. You
Have you seen that little river glowing with white light?"
