Chapter 46 046: Thief Tree
Because he was worried that the other party would find out the whereabouts of the three of them, the wrapped flashlight only carefully illuminated a little bit of the path under his feet. Wang Tianxiao walked in front, and almost every foot was tested before he settled.
The two younger brothers followed closely behind him, almost stepping on his footsteps and moving slowly.
Moves fairly slowly.
Wang Tianxiao didn't dare to be quick. It's a trivial matter to startle the snake. The most important thing is that they can't figure out the other party's purpose and strength for the time being.
How many people are there, how are they fighting, especially whether they have guns in their hands, and if so, what kind of guns?
These need to be mastered before they can be easily dealt with.
If not, if they are discovered and lose the opportunity, the consequences will be disastrous.
Desperadoes cannot have a heart of benevolence, and they will not let them go just because the few people here are young, or even have a child.
In the deep mountains, it is very easy and possible to kill a person and throw it in the wild to be eaten by carnivores.
Have to find places to watch and see what they're doing.
The three of them groped forward, and Wang Tianxiao became more and more curious as he walked. Although he was not as familiar with Yangziling as the place where he used to work, the general terrain of the mountain was still very clear.
If his memory is correct, there is a cliff a little further on the road, and another village below the mountain. If you want to go down the mountain, there is no way from this direction at all, you have to go around eight or nine kilometers ahead.
Unless you are a legendary martial arts master who can go high and high, you can step on the left foot from the cliff and fall to the bottom of the cliff like a bird.
Since this is the case, what are the illegal loggers doing here?
If you want to go down the mountain, wouldn't it be a long detour?
With suspicion, the three continued to walk for a while, and they could vaguely see four or five figures.
Wang Tianxiao stopped.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Wang Tiancheng asked.
Wang Tianxiao looked around the terrain.
Strictly speaking, the position they are standing now is still below those people, and the figure can be seen because the distance is far enough. If you continue to move forward, it is estimated that you will slowly lose your goal.
Moreover, in the event of an emergency, it is obviously more advantageous for the opponent to be condescending. Therefore, since ancient times, the two armies have always cared about the control of the commanding heights.
Wang Tianxiao weighed the semi-automatic rifle in his hand, feeling much more at ease.
"The old five and the six, the opponent has more people than us, and I don't know if they have a guy in their hands. It is not wise to directly confront them,"
He pointed to two places and said, "Fifth, go over there and find a tree to hide, and Sixth, go over there, and don't act rashly after you pass by. When you hear what I say, you just need to shout the same words. "
"Why? Let's just go up and catch them." Wang Tianxin didn't want to go to such trouble.
Wang Tianxiao looked at his innocent brother with a wry smile and said, "Theft of a few trees is not considered a serious crime, and you don't even need to be detained. After being criticized and educated, you will be released. There is no need to kill them all. If you have formed too deep a relationship with them, just drive them away. "
"That's too cheap for them, isn't it?"
"Then what do you want, catch and shoot?" Wang Tianxiao looked at his younger brother who was prone to extreme behavior, "Look at the thieves all over the street, why did the police release them quickly after they were caught? This is because of guilt Stealing trees is certainly wrong, but it has not yet reached the point where it needs to be sentenced."
Speaking of this, Wang Tianxin naturally understood.
"That's really cheap for them."
I understand it, but my mouth is still not convinced.
"Okay, if you're really interested, study hard. After high school, you can also come to the mountains and work as a forest ranger with me. Then you will punish these people properly."
"Oh well."
Wang Tianxiao saw that Wang Tianxin was also done, so he asked them to take their respective positions, and he also spotted a position and ran up quickly.
He remembered that when he was patrolling the mountain a few days ago, he saw a huge rock nearby, which could be used as a cover. If the opponent has a gun, it may be necessary to use the gun to solve the problem. The bunker is very important.
Following his memory, he found the hidden place, put the gun on the ground, installed the sight and silencer, and looked towards the edge of the cliff through the sight.
56 semi-automatic rifle can be used as a sniper rifle, but it needs to be equipped with an additional scope, otherwise, with the vision of ordinary humans, even if the gun can, people cannot see so far.
Seeing this, he instantly understood what these people wanted to do.
They are going to push the wood directly off the cliff, and then pick it up in the village below.
This perfectly solves the problem of the wood going down the mountain.
It can only be said that the wisdom of the "working" people is infinite. Wang Tianxiao has seen a documentary where some mountain people cut down trees and threw them directly into the river, letting the trees rush down the river to collect them. It is similar to the way these people are doing now. wonderful.
It's just that this kind of thinking is not used on the right path.
Judging from the wood around several people, at least one hundred and eighty trees have been felled.
Trees at this time are still relatively valuable. If it is wood such as pine, cypress and fir, a piece of wood costs four to five hundred yuan, and those woods should be worth several thousand yuan more. If it is retail, it should be able to sell for more than 10,000 yuan.
In the early days, due to steel smelting technology and production capacity constraints, many furniture were all made of wood, and because the cement industry also did not develop, the rafters and beams of the house were also made of wood.
Therefore, there was a great demand for wood in the market, and the price was much higher than the living standard at that time.
For example, Wang Tianxiao planted catalpa trees in a circle outside the backyard of his separated family in his previous life. This kind of wood is not very good wood. After a few years of growth, it has a diameter of about ten centimeters, and one tree can be sold for 300 yuan.
It was just that at that time he thought that the price of wood would continue to rise, and that rare goods could be lived in. However, with the continuous advancement of industrialization, the price of wood has not continued to rise, but has continued to fall.
So much so that when the yard was renovated later, as long as people were willing to dig trees, they would be taken away for free.
Trees in the mountains are valuable, and some people know that, but not many people really have crooked ideas about trees.
The main reason is that it is inconvenient to transport.
Even a tree with a diameter of 10 centimeters is very heavy if it is cut to a length of two or three meters. It is not easy for an ordinary person to carry it.
Even if you can carry it, how can you carry it home? If someone finds it on the road, the name of the thief will be confirmed, and it will become a hat that can never be taken off.
People in this era are still stuck in an ancient education model, and they generally value dignity and face more than anything else. Even if they are poor, their self-esteem cannot be lost.
Stealing is wrong in itself, and it would be embarrassing, and most of them could not accept it.
Wang Tianxiao was thinking, the thief over there had already lifted a tree and rolled it down the cliff, and the second one had also been lifted.
