Ambush and killing

Not far away came the cries of owl cubs, echoing in the quiet forest, causing He Boqiang's back to bristle with sweat.

He carefully pushed open a clump of thorny trees, bypassed the large group of owls from a distance, and ran to a place where the owls could no longer be heard crying before taking a breath.

When Suldak complained about going out on patrol and duty, it was difficult to encounter wild animals in the forest area. However, he had just entered the dense forest west of the forest and unexpectedly encountered this powerful land fierce bird.

The large group of owls gathered in the forest and were feeding on a spotted deer. In the hierarchical family of owls, family status determined the order of feeding. Perhaps the young were eager to break this order while waiting, but after being severely repaired by the mother owl, the crying would slowly subside.

The forest is densely covered with branches and leaves, and the sunlight is not seen in the forest all year round. Many tree leaves fall on the ground and slowly decay. The decaying soil is exceptionally soft, and many branches are buried in the soil. These branches are like zombie arms buried only in the decaying leaves. If one is not careful, they will stumble and fall on these dead branches.

Some damp decaying trees are covered in dense black fungus, many roots are surrounded by light brown moss, various oily yellow mushrooms on top, and light yellow ferns. If you can identify edible fungi and wild vegetables, you don't need to go too far to gather a large basket.

This forest farm is very large, and walking far along the mountain slope, you can still see huge tree stumps. He Boqiang identified the direction and hurried all the way, but unfortunately, he couldn't find the passage of the supply line hidden in the valley. Along the way, he met various small animals in the forest, and those animals were not too afraid of people. Even a leopard cat chased He Boqiang all the way from the tree, constantly making protest calls, it's like He Boqiang invaded its territory.

He Boqiang crossed the forest farm and then crossed a shallow stream. He couldn't find any forest paths ahead and could only search aimlessly along the river and stream.

In the dense forest, except for the chirping of some birds and the rustling of leaves, no other sounds can be heard.

Not far ahead, he saw some blood stains left on the rocks on the riverbank. He Boqiang thought it was left by Jeronan and was about to come forward to carefully examine it. Suddenly, he heard a strange cry of 'chirping in the air' and happened to see several strange looking indigenous people surrounded by a huge stone by the river, only wrapped in animal skins and banana leaves, eating a white scale fish.

A few wooden spears were placed on the rocky beach by the stream. In addition to the wooden spears, there were also several wooden bows on the beach. However, it seemed that the range of this rough wooden bow was very limited, but there were no signs of battle around it. It seemed that Suldak and Sam were not at war with these indigenous people.

Quickly, the bloody fish was eaten up by the indigenous people, and the seven indigenous people were not in a hurry to leave. Instead, they took off their animal skins and 'plopped' into the stream. He Boqiang groped around and did not find any trace of the second team, so he did not disturb these seven indigenous people and continued to explore the depths of the dense forest.

Just when He Boqiang suspected that he was lost, he finally discovered a forest path in the dense forest. Although the path was not too wide, there were still some traces of ruts on the road. Although it had become blurred by the rain, the footprints on the side were clearly visible.

It can be seen that these footprints are all left by the iron boots of the infantry battalion soldiers. After running so far, he still couldn't find the soldiers of the second team. The boiling blood in He Boqiang's body gradually cooled down. After calming down, He Boqiang began to think about how many indigenous people he could deal with with with his own strength.

He paused in place for a moment and suddenly felt a dazzling light shake him.

He Boqiang didn't turn his head to check, but quickly hid behind a tree.

Just as he was hiding behind the tree, the feather arrow silently shot from the right rear and 'poop' nailed to the tree trunk.

If it weren't for just being vigilant and hiding behind the tree in time, it is estimated that this red tailed feather arrow has already been inserted behind him, and a cold sweat suddenly emerged from He Boqiang's head.

Following the direction of the feather arrow, the figure in the densely covered area flashed, and the dark figure quickly hid in the forest.

Unexpectedly, it was an indigenous person following behind. He Boqiang did not pursue the indigenous person, but carefully pulled out the red tailed arrow from the tree trunk. This is a feather arrow made of polished white bone, and the feather at the tail of the arrow is a very beautiful red feather. He Boqiang cannot distinguish which bird's feather is.

The arrows of the bone arrow are somewhat stained, looking like they have been smeared with some poison.

Continuing to explore along the path in the forest, the indigenous person always followed behind He Boqiang and would shoot a cold arrow at He Boqiang whenever there was a chance. However, he refused to engage in direct conflict with He Boqiang. After each shot of a feather arrow, he quickly fled into the dense forest, giving He Boqiang no opportunity to take advantage of it.

With such a tail following behind him, He Boqiang's spirit needs to always maintain a high level of tension, which can easily make people feel tired.

He Boqiang carefully observed the surroundings and found a slightly wider area along the forest path. From a distance, he saw the indigenous person flashing past the dense forest. The indigenous person was wearing clothes woven from branches, holding a wooden bow in his hand, and carrying a pot of red-tailed arrows behind his back. He reached out his hand with great agility.

He chased after the indigenous person and arrived at the place where they were hiding. The indigenous person had already fled, but the sense of danger never disappeared. He Boqiang stayed in place for a moment, and three red tailed arrows shot from his side. He Boqiang exclaimed and fell to the ground.

After a while, there was a rustling sound coming from the bushes. The bushes trembled a few times, and a young indigenous man dressed in leaves emerged from inside. He held a wooden bow in his hand and approached He Boqiang cautiously, with a red-tailed bone arrow attached to it.

At a distance of ten meters from He Boqiang, the young indigenous stopped and pointed his bow and arrow at He Boqiang from afar, ready to add another arrow.

Just as he pulled out his bow and arrow, He Boqiang jumped up from the ground and threw the Roman sword in his hand directly.

The Roman sword made a piercing sound and steadily penetrated the young indigenous man's chest. The heavy Roman sword broke open the indigenous man's sternum without any hindrance, and with great force, the indigenous man took three steps back and firmly nailed it to a sturdy tree.

The young indigenous people spat blood out of their mouths and tightly grasped the handle of the Roman sword with both hands. Unfortunately, they exhausted their strength but could not pull it out.

Blood gurgled in his chest, and He Boqiang walked awkwardly over, looking coldly at the young indigenous man. He pulled out the Roman sword that had been inserted into his chest and cut his throat, causing the young indigenous man to fall softly to the ground.
