Chapter 786: Fifty-year-old sister-in-law (19)
The leading soldier stuffed a kraft paper-like thing into his comrade's arms, pushed him hard, put the empty pistol into his holster, ducked behind a boulder, and, together with another teammate, dug into the comrade's arms. He gathered a pile of rocks and prepared to intercept the bandits and buy more time for his comrades who were escorting the intelligence.
The bandits who were catching up were disrupted by the rocks flying towards them, and missed the best opportunity to pursue. They were so angry that they fired at the boulders.
“Get out of here!”
The leader of the bandit walked into the forest step by step with his gun raised.
“Let’s just take it! You know you have no bullets, why are you still resisting? Damn it! I had already evacuated, it’s all you lingering bugs! Why don’t you get out and kowtow to me and confess!”
"boom!"
What answered him was a sharp flying stone, which almost hit him on the head.
…”
“Fuck! I can’t help but shed tears when I see the coffin!”
His ferocious face stared at the boulder sinisterly, with a sneer on his lips, he aimed at the hole of his gun, and approached the boulder step by step.
"I can't leave, so don't even think about going back to make meritorious deeds! Just capture him without any effort!"
Zhao Gang's back was pressed against the back of the boulder, and cold sweat fell from his forehead.
He closed his eyes and said to his comrades in a breathy voice: "Cheng Zi, I'll count one, two, three. You go, I'll cover..."
"Shut up."
Cheng Shaojin mouthed two words in reply.
Looking at the tree trunk opposite with solemn eyes, he listened carefully to the footsteps of the enemy, mentally calculating the distance between the two sides, and assessing when he would have the highest success rate of rushing out to seize the gun from the opponent's hand and avoiding the enemy's fire.
At this moment, an almost inaudible sound broke through the air passing above his head.
The next second, the screams of the bandit leader were heard, followed by the thud of heavy objects hitting the ground.
Then there was another sound of breaking through the air.
Cheng Shaojin counted two seconds silently in his mind, and sure enough, there was another scream from behind the forest.
Zhao Gang also noticed it, and his eyes shone with joy: "The organization has sent people to support us!"
“Well, let’s go!”
The two of them took advantage of the cover of the bushes, and when the enemy was disrupted by the sudden hidden weapon, they left the boulder, rushed out to pick up two guns, and regained the initiative in their own hands.
After a fierce battle, the two of them defeated the many with less, and captured three machine guns, ten pistols, and two alive.
"Cheng Zi, are you from the organization?" Zhao Gang escorted the two survivors out of the forest, looking around as he walked.
Cheng Shaojin was also wondering.
In his hand were several hidden weapons used to seal the throats of enemy bandits with one sword, but they were not the slingshot stones he had seen, but a sharp wolf tooth, ground very smooth and white, as if it had just come from a wolf not long ago. It was pulled out from the mouth and polished.
Could it be that the hunters from a nearby village rescued them?
Cheng Shaojin rubbed the wolf fang thoughtfully in his eyes, then put the wolf fang into his pocket, and together with his comrades, escorted the captured enemy bandits alive out of the forest.
After they left, Xu Yin slowly exhaled a breath, put the homemade slingshot and the few remaining wolf fangs that were used to entertain children in some small worlds into the system warehouse, and slid down from the tree.
It’s a good thing I kept it, otherwise I wouldn’t know what to use as slingshot bullets for a while. He dusted off his clothes, took out his watch and looked at the time. He had been out for a while. If he didn't go back, the captain should be worried.
Although we couldn’t find wild beehives and honey locusts, it was still a good thing.
Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. This is much more meaningful than finding a beehive.
As Xu Yin ran back, she pulled out a few pieces of wild beehives with honey that she had stored in the system warehouse.
There was also a small half basket full of acacias.
I found that there were still a few honey locust saplings in the warehouse that I had stocked up for some time. After thinking about it, I took one out. Wouldn’t planting one in the patio solve the problem of sustainable development?
Unexpectedly, I was lucky and bumped into a rabbit when I was going down the mountain. The rabbit ran too fast and bumped into Xu Yin.
“Captain! Look! Is the harvest okay?”
Xu Yin trotted down the mountain, letting Captain Fu, who had been waiting anxiously, breathe a sigh of relief.
“I can’t wait to find you.”
He looked Xu Yin up and down to make sure she was fine, and then he had time to look at the trophies she brought back.
“Yo! We also caught a rabbit? It’s quite fat!”
"It's quite fat. I bumped into it myself." Xu Yin said happily, "Captain, I see there are a lot of hares in this mountain, and there must be pheasants. We can organize a two-day trip when we have time. It would also be good to have a picnic on the spot. "
Now she no longer lives in one room, but four people share the same room. She can no longer open a small stove for herself every now and then like before. It is not easy to eat some meat.
Captain Fu was a little moved after hearing this, but a round trip was too time-consuming. They were here to reclaim wasteland, so how could they have time for a picnic?
“We’ll talk about it later, we’ll talk about it later.”
Looking back, there was some discussion, Xu Yin pursed her lips and was happy.
With the wild beehives and honey locusts that Xu Yin "recovered", the method of trapping mosquitoes and flies was put on the agenda.
The honey that came with the hive was reluctant to be used to trap mosquitoes and flies. Captain Fu took a spoon, scraped off the honey and put it in a glass jar. It was used as medical supplies for the team. If anyone suffered from heatstroke or hypoglycemia, come to the team doctor to prescribe some. Mix honey with water and drink.
The honeycomb after scraping off the honey is still sticky, which is perfect for catching flies that like sweet things.
As for mosquitoes, close the doors and windows at night, put a large wooden basin in front of the window, and add some soapy water rubbed with acacia into the basin. The next day, there will be some dead mosquitoes in the basin.
The eggs laid by mosquitoes cannot survive in alkali-containing water, thus achieving the effect of killing mosquitoes.
The Yuanshan Reclamation Team was clearing land and growing vegetables while responding to the organization’s call to actively eliminate mosquitoes and flies. Their days were busy and fulfilling.
Other reclamation teams have entered a period of weakness as they work on monotonous reclamation day after day.
Disputes often occur among the team members: either the female compatriots are arguing over trivial matters, or several male compatriots like a female comrade in the team at the same time, competing to express themselves like male peacocks with their tails open, and their thoughts are all on After chasing the target, I have no intention of reclaiming wasteland.
The captains of each team became mediators. At one time, they acted as friends of women, and earnestly advised the female compatriots not to break the friendship over trivial matters. At another time, they had to brainwash the male compatriots, lest they patronize the person they were talking to and forget the purpose of coming here... They were so distressed that their hair was broken. It's almost gone.
Every time we meet in the auditorium, I see Captain Fu coming and leaving in a hurry, listening and recording with all his attention during the meeting, and I can't help but grab him and vomit:
"Lao Fu, is your team really worrying? Why can't these girls and boys understand and listen to the truth? If you work hard now, you will have a job when you go back. If you don't work hard now, your hard work these past few years will be in vain... "
Fu Rongxing was confused: "What are you worrying about? What should I worry about?"
…”
