Chapter 77 Encountering an old friend on the road (1)
After resting under the rocks for three days, Zheng Xiao and Hei Lang embarked on the journey again.
Although he only rested for three days, Hei Lang's injuries have improved greatly and he has regained his energy. This made Zheng Xiao have to admire Hei Lang's strong recovery ability.
Animals are much stronger than humans in some aspects. The reason why humans rule the world is because humans have creative abilities and thinking that they do not have, which they can never match.
Ever since the wolf incident, the black wolf and Zheng Xiao have become very close. It seems to like being with Zheng Xiao very much and always follows him inseparably, as if it has an extra tail.
Zheng Xiao also likes the black wolf very much, because when he sees it, it reminds him of the purebred black back he raised in the past, which makes him feel more comforted.
After traveling to this era, he didn't know if he would have the chance to return to that era, so many things could only remain in his memory.
Poof -, the black wolf jumped out of the bushes, holding a pheasant in its mouth. I really don’t know how it caught this flying pheasant, but there were no prey it caught along the way.
They had caught everything from hares to pheasants. Once they even brought back a black bear cub, which shocked Zheng Xiao.
It was that time that they were chased for four to five miles by a violent black bear whose child had been stolen. They finally managed to escape, but they were already half-dead from exhaustion and almost vomited blood.
Zheng Xiao was lighting a fire next to the stone. When he saw the black wolf bringing back a pheasant, he immediately smiled and said, "Looks like lunch is in order."
He skillfully disembowelled the pheasant, removed the feathers, and wrapped it in mud. Of course, the seasonings were already put into the chicken belly, and finally he put it on the fire and started grilling.
The black wolf lay beside him, staring intently at the roasted chicken on the fire, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth. He liked Zheng Xiao's roasted mountain food the most, the taste was so sweet.
Zheng Xiao didn't care much about this. The regular field training he carried out in the past allowed him to adapt to any harsh environment, so his principle was that as long as he was full, it didn't matter what he ate.
The fire used dry wood found in the forest. These pine trees are rich in grease and are very easy to burn. The wood licked by the flames made a crisp sound and exploded from time to time.
The mud shell on the outside of the pheasant has become hard, and the color has also changed. It is estimated that in a few moments, the black wolf will melt the pheasant with his eyes. The long tail is swaying left and right, and the photo is taken.
There was a soft snapping sound on the stone.
At this time, Zheng Xiao and Hei Lang raised their heads almost at the same time and turned to look into the woods in the distance. Although there was nothing there, it could be seen from the expressions of one person and one wolf that they must have discovered something.
What.
"It's strange. I haven't seen a single person in the past few days. Why is there any movement over there? Could it be that the wolves that retreated are chasing me again?" Zheng Xiao thought as he quickly doused the fire with water.
He took out the dead and almost cooked pheasant, threw it behind a stone and hid it. He and Hei Lang stood up and ducked behind a big stone.
As the two people left, calm returned to the rocks, and the ashes of the fire were washed into the stream by Zheng Xiao, leaving nothing on the rocks.
Hiding behind the rocks, Zheng Xiao and Hei Lang looked out carefully. The location they chose was very good. Not only could they have an overview of the entire space outside the forest, but it was also very hidden and difficult to be discovered.
The woods were quiet and there was still no movement at all. One person and one wolf were waiting patiently. They knew that they heard correctly and the target would definitely appear.
After about four or five minutes, a group of birds in the woods flew up into the sky with a huff and puff, and then hovered on top of the woods. It seemed that they were frightened.
"Coming!" Zheng Xiao's eyes lit up, and he saw a figure appearing on the edge of the woods.
This is a group of Japanese soldiers. They are wearing military uniforms, holding 38 big caps in their hands, and plaster flags hanging on their shining bayonets. They all have fierce looks on their faces. It can be seen that they are all veterans.
In the middle of their team, more than a dozen people were tied up in a string with ropes and were stumbling forward. Their clothes were all in tatters, and some of them had blood stains on their bodies and faces. They were probably killed by the Japanese.
call taxi.
Among this group of people, a girl in a white dress caught Zheng Xiao's eyes, and he was immediately shocked, "Isn't this the group of people Lin Shaofeng and the others protected? How did they fall into the hands of the Japanese?"
Zheng Xiao was deeply impressed by this girl in white. He could tell that Lin Shaofeng took special care of her and sent two soldiers to protect her. From this, he could tell that her identity was extraordinary.
Unexpectedly, this group of people protected by dozens of soldiers fell into the hands of the Japanese!
Looking at the people captured by the Japanese, Zheng Xiao pondered and planned how to rescue these people.
There are probably more than twenty Japanese in this group, and they seem to be specially used to escort these people. They are experienced and vigilant. It may not be that easy to kill them silently.
Zheng Xiao believes that given time, he has a hundred ways to kill these devils one by one, but now time does not allow it at all, and he must rescue these people as soon as possible.
"What should we do?" Zheng Xiao frowned and thought.
The Japanese escorted the people slowly to the stream. They first sent people to look around and found nothing unusual, and then stopped on a rock about seventy or eighty meters away from Zheng Xiao and the others.
Two Japs went to the stream to fetch water and filled the military kettles, while the remaining Japs began to rest. They arranged for six Japs to be on guard, and the guards were very tight.
Zheng Xiao became a little anxious. He touched his hand subconsciously and suddenly remembered something. He was so happy that he almost shouted, "By the way, I can do this."
Opening his backpack, Zheng Xiao took out an injection of potion from it, and then poured it into two captured military kettles, which were already filled with clean water and were originally used by Zheng Xiao as a spare.
Now, he will use these two kettles to solve the problem of these devils.
While he was doing this, the black wolf lay aside and watched his movements quietly. After he finished, it suddenly jumped up, rushed out of the hiding place, and tiptoed behind the two devils.
That posture is exactly like that of a fox stealing a chicken...
Zheng Xiao was stunned and thought to himself, "Is this guy a wolf? He is even more of a thief than a fox."
He originally planned to sneak attack the two Japs himself and then pour the two bottles of water into their kettles. Unexpectedly, Hei Lang guessed his intention and took the initiative to attract the Japs' attention.
In this way, his chances of success are much greater!
