Meng Haisheng rushed out of the tent decisively with a loaded gun.
He saw his teammates, who were supposed to be guarding the campfire, rolling on the ground and firing two shots into the dark. He was hit in the chest by a bullet. Fortunately, he was wearing a bulletproof vest, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"Everyone be careful, the enemy is hiding at ten o'clock and twelve o'clock, and the guns they use are all modified AKs."
In this dark night, the enemy is secretly spying, and they are exposed in the light.
Meng Haisheng just came out of the tent and heard dense gunfire beside his ears while crouching. A bullet even fell at his feet.
He reacted quickly and rolled over and hid on the other side of the tent.
At this time, someone quickly threw out two flares.
The enemy who was hiding in the dark was instantly exposed.
Meng Haisheng was about to shoot, and suddenly heard two muffled sounds, and the enemy fell down silently.
There is no doubt that this was Lin Jinyan's teammates who took action.
"Haisheng, let's hide behind the tent and don't cause trouble for the eldest brother."
Lin Jinhui pulled Meng Haisheng and said in a low voice.
Meng Haisheng smiled bitterly. He never thought that his strength would become a burden.
The flares had just gone out, and two new flares broke through the night sky.
Meng Haisheng was pressed tightly against the side of the tent by Lin Jinhui, and various gunshots rang in his ears from time to time.
The gunshots on their side were dull, while those on the enemy side were crisp. This made it easy for Meng Haisheng to tell who was who.
He struggled to push Lin Jinhui away and wanted to help Lin Jinyan, but as soon as he took out the gun and stuck his head out from behind the tent, the gunshots stopped abruptly.
Lin Jinyan and a few others walked out carefully from behind the tent and the rocks, holding a strong flashlight in their hands to illuminate the dark forest.
Several men in black down jackets quickly surrounded them from the dark.
Just one minute later, someone turned on a flashlight in the dark and shook it in the air.
"It's safe now, everyone come out and deal with the battlefield."
Lin Jinyan gave an order, and all the people who were hiding showed up and came forward to help check whether there were any lurking enemies around.
Lin Jinyan's team moved quickly, and before Meng Haisheng had time to take action, they dragged five bodies out of the forest.
These people were wearing thick sheepskin coats and looked like people from the Snow Country.
Someone quickly searched the five bodies and found two useful things: a map and a worn-out notebook.
The map was drawn quite roughly, but several key marks were very clear.
The notebook looked a bit old, and the people recorded on it were different.
Meng Haisheng studied it with the guide and could barely translate the content.
The notebook recorded the process of some people coming to Nanyis Snow Mountain to find the tomb of the medicinal material merchant in the past sixty years.
The vast Nanyis Snow Mountain was almost walked by these people. They left a lot of clues, but they never found the tomb of the medicinal material merchant.
It is said that this group of people bought this map from an antique dealer. According to legend, one of the craftsmen who built the tomb for the medicinal material merchant survived. He specially drew this map so that his descendants could dig for treasure.
However, from Meng Haisheng's point of view, this map is more like a tomb robber's drawing.
He didn't understand why the tomb robbers found the tomb but didn't do it, but drew this map.
"Brother, how do we deal with these bodies?" Meng Haisheng frowned and looked at the bodies not far away.
I'm afraid they can't rest here tonight.
"The group of snow wolves has been following us. Throw the bodies farther away in a while. We don't need to deal with them. The snow wolves will help us clean them up."
Meng Haisheng suddenly realized that the snow wolves mentioned by the guide before were very smart. They were waiting here.
In recent years, explorers who have entered the mountains to search for treasures have been endless, fierce battles have broken out from time to time, and casualties are also commonplace.
Snow wolves followed these teams cleverly and always got a hearty meal easily. They were really smart.
Soon, Lin Jinyan's team members dragged the body a hundred meters away with strong flashlights.
Not long after they left, pairs of green eyes appeared in the darkness, staring at the prey.
Sparse dragging sounds came faintly from the darkness, making people feel a chill from their backs.
"Everyone go back to the tent to rest. We have to continue the journey tomorrow. Those on duty should stay alert."
The team member who was originally on duty was replaced. His bulletproof vest was almost pierced by a bullet. At this moment, he was still in shock. It would be too much to let him be on duty again.
The next day, after discussion, everyone decided to look for the tomb of the herbal medicine merchant according to the marks on the map to see if they could find anything.
The closer you go to the top of the snow mountain, the sparser the vegetation around you is. The pine forestIt gradually became sparse.
Lin Jinhui slowed down his pace, his eyes always on the surrounding snow-covered land.
His experience told him that the black frost snow lotus loves this kind of fertile soil.
"Everyone pay attention to observe and see if there are any black frost snow lotus. The altitude we are at now, both the climate and the soil, are very suitable for the growth of black frost snow lotus."
Lin Jinhui reminded everyone.
Everyone responded and scattered, hoping to have the opportunity to find the legendary black frost snow lotus.
Meng Haisheng studied the map and felt that they should have entered the third marked area on the map.
"Brother, come and see if our current pine forest is the same as described on the mark."
Meng Haisheng called Lin Jinyan.
"This map is too abstract, I can't see it. If you think it is, then it's about the same."
Meng Haisheng laughed dumbly, unable to refute Lin Jinyan's words.
The pine forest is vast and boundless. Meng Haisheng and others wandered in the forest for two days, but they could not get out and did not find a black frost snow lotus.
Exhausted, Meng Haisheng saw a huge rock in the distance and planned to rest there for a while before continuing on his way.
Just as Meng Haisheng approached the rock, a small green leaf caught his eye.
He put on his backpack and walked forward quickly.
On one side of the rock, two snow lotuses swayed in the cold wind.
Meng Haisheng rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking he had seen it wrong.
After repeated confirmation, he indeed found that the edges of the two snow lotuses had ink-colored lace. He shouted excitedly, "Second brother, come and see, I found two black frost snow lotuses!"
Lin Jinhui, who was walking in front, was refreshed and ran over quickly.
"Haisheng, you are so lucky. You found two black frost snow lotuses at once."
Lin Jinhui was also shocked.
He took out the small shovel he carried with him and carefully dug out the two black frost snow lotuses.
Everyone gathered together and witnessed the beauty of this rare plant. For a moment, everyone was in joy.
"This is the legendary Black Frost Snow Lotus, it's so rare!" someone exclaimed.
Meng Haisheng carefully put away the two Black Frost Snow Lotuses, feeling extremely excited.
He believed that it must be a blessing from heaven to find such a precious plant in this vast snow-capped mountain.
