Just after six o'clock the next day, Zhuang Rui got up from the bed, walked out of the wooden house, and was immediately attracted by the scenery outside.

At this moment, a glimmer of light appeared on the horizon. At the foot of the mountain, white mist was everywhere, shrouding the entire Savage Mountain in the morning mist. The milky white fog was flowing and receding. Through the gaps in the clouds, the dark blue mist could be seen.

Mountain peaks and trees are looming.

After about ten minutes, the fog gradually dissipated, the sky was blue, and you could see the undulating mountains of Savage Mountain, the rugged mountain road, and the clouds and mist on the mountain, which looked so mysterious.

Someone in the mine protection team has already gotten up to make breakfast. The rising smoke is intertwined with the fog that has not yet dispersed, giving it a sense of farm life.

"What? What are you looking at? Brother, you can't go deep into Savage Mountain. Just look around and see if there are any animals to fight..."

While Zhuang Rui was looking at Savage Mountain, Hu Rong walked up to him and saw Zhuang Rui wearing a camouflage uniform and a pair of high-top field boots. He didn't know what Zhuang Rui was thinking.

Hu Rong's eyes were bloodshot at the moment. He almost didn't sleep all night yesterday and his mood was extremely complicated. With the capital injection promised by Zhuang Rui, the pressure on him was relieved a lot, but at the same time it put a big stone in his heart.

If it turns out to be an abandoned mine, Zhuang Rui will also be harmed.

"Don't worry, Brother Hu, let's just go around the perimeter and get over the gun addiction. It's illegal to hold a gun in the country..."

Zhuang Rui said nonchalantly that after he returned to the cabin last night, he had a chat with Peng Fei and realized that now was the best time to go into the mountains. If it were the rainy season, he would not be able to walk in the mountains at all.

And now is the time when the temperature is the lowest in Myanmar. Although some tropical poisonous snakes do not need to hibernate, their activity time will be greatly reduced. They will not take the initiative to attack humans when they are not attacked.

"Okay, I have plenty of bullets here. I guarantee that you won't want to fight anymore. Go eat first..."

Hu Rong patted Zhuang Rui on the shoulder and took him to have breakfast. Peng Fei was already waiting there. When he saw Zhuang Rui coming over, he filled a bowl of porridge and handed it to Zhuang Rui.

The dish that goes with the meal is pickled radish strips. Zhuang Rui often ate this when he was a child. In winter, radish and cabbage were basically the only vegetables at home. Zhuang's mother would cut the radish into strips and pickle them with salt.

Then it is dried in the sun and crunchy in the mouth.

After drinking three large bowls of porridge and eating two sesame balls, Zhuang Rui stopped. This was what Peng Fei specially told him. He must eat and drink enough, because there are many uncertain factors after entering the mountain.

It goes as smoothly as they thought, and maintaining physical strength is a basic condition for survival in the forest.

"Brother, since you don't want Zhu Banpo to accompany you, then let a few of them follow you..."

After breakfast, Hu Rong was ready to go up the mountain, but before going up the mountain, he had to make arrangements for Zhuang Rui's hunting. If Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei were allowed to go alone, he would definitely not be at ease.

"Boss Zhuang, I haven't hunted for a long time..."

The "rice cook" looked at Zhuang Rui with a resentful look on her face. She arranged the fingers of her right hand into an orchid shape and nodded at Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui was so frightened that he quickly took a few steps back and almost didn't finish the meal he had just eaten.

Spit it out.

"What's wrong..."

Zhuang Rui cursed secretly in his heart. He wanted to pay this man and let him go back to Thailand and have it cut off.

"His name is Zhang Guojun, he is Chinese. Please call him big brother and listen to him more. This forest is no joke. How many people have gone in and never come out again..."

Hu Rong introduced a burly man wearing dark green camouflage uniform to Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui knew that this man was the captain of the mine protection team. He had chatted with him while drinking yesterday. He was a man with three wives.

host.

"Dajun, I leave Zhuang Rui to you. We must ensure the safety of both of them. If anything happens, I will settle the score with you..."

Hu Rong turned around and told Zhang Guojun that in fact, he knew that there was no danger in taking care of small animals outside, otherwise he would not agree to Zhuang Rui's request.

"Brother Hu, don't worry. I've been to Savage Mountain several times. It's okay to wander around outside..."

Zhang Guojun patted his chest and agreed. Although he did not know Zhuang Rui's exact identity, Zhang Guojun could tell from Hu Rong's attitude towards Zhuang Rui and the two professors that Zhuang Rui should be one of his own.

"Okay, bring some food. If you can't come back at noon, don't be hungry. We will go to the mine first..."

Hu Rong would not be in the mood to accompany Zhuang Rui on hunting. He would take two professors to continue exploring the jade veins, hoping to find the veins and get out of the current predicament.

"Mr. Zhuang, take these two guns and carry this cartridge belt on your back. I'll teach you how to use it first..."

After Hu Rong left, Zhang Guojun took two 67% new AK47 submachine guns and two heavy military green bullet belts and handed them to Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei.

"Brother Zhang, just call me Zhuang Rui. We are all our own people. Don't be so quarrelsome. I can use this gun. I have used it before..."

After Zhuang Rui took the gun, he skillfully removed the magazine, pulled the bolt and checked the gun. Zhang Guojun was stunned for a moment, but he knew that there were not many people in China who knew how to play with guns.

"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Zhuang. You two wait a moment, I'm going to explain..."

Zhang Guojun is the captain of the mine protection team. He has to arrange safety work during his day out. Although the security in Myanmar is good, it is in a city where there are no interest disputes. It is hard to say in such a wild ravine.

"Brother Zhuang, can you do it? If not, give me two magazines..."

Peng Fei skillfully carried the cartridge belt on his back. Although he was using an AK47 submachine gun, the cartridge belt was made from the domestic August 1st gun and could hold six bullet clips in total.

Now there are four magazines filled with thirty rounds of bullets inserted into these two bullet belts. They are not light, and they feel heavy when hanging on the chest.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

After Zhuang Rui put on his bullet belt, he jumped a few times on the spot. It didn't seem to affect his activities. In fact, in terms of physical fitness alone, he was probably stronger than Peng Fei. After all, Zhuang Rui often used spiritual energy to help him when he was fine.

Grooming the body is like a massage. The feeling of spiritual energy entering the body is very comfortable.

Counting the magazines carried by the submachine gun, there were a total of five magazines and 150 rounds of 7.62 mm bullets. Hu Rong was very generous. According to his opinion, these bullets were enough for Zhuang Rui to satisfy his gun addiction.

"Brother Zhuang, let's go. If we can hit another big guy today, we will be lucky..."

After Zhang Guojun finished explaining his work, he brought four people over. The other mine protection team members looked at them with envy. You know, hunting in the mountains is a good job, and it is more boring than here.

It's much more comfortable to stand guard.

"Brother Zhang, let me carry this thing..."

Peng Fei saw Zhang Guojun carrying a bag in his hand and knew that it contained food and water. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed the bag in his hand.

"No, no, you are guests. Hey, little brother, are you okay?"

Zhang Guojun was about to refuse, but Peng Fei had already snatched the bag. Zhang Guojun couldn't help but glare at several of his subordinates. He didn't have any eyesight at all, so he didn't ask the guests to carry things.

However, after some hesitation, the bag was still carried on Peng Fei's body, and the group of five people walked along the foot of the mine to the Savage Mountain to the north.

As the old saying goes, "Looking at the mountain is like running to death. Zhuang Rui had never had this experience before, but now he can feel it. Standing in the camp and looking at Savage Mountain, it seemed as if it was right in front of him. However, after walking for nearly an hour, he came here.

To the edge of Savage Mountain.

And the distance traveled in this hour was only four or five miles, and this was despite not going up the mountain and everyone speeding up their pace.

Peng Fei's face became serious at this time, and he realized that his previous calculation was somewhat wrong.

According to Peng Fei's calculations, there is about 20 kilometers of mountain road from here to the location where the treasure is hidden. For him alone, Peng Fei is absolutely sure that he can make a round trip within four or five hours, but with Zhuang Rui

, I’m afraid even a single trip may not be possible in four or five hours.

"Brother Zhuang, if it doesn't work, just don't go. I can sneak over and take a look myself..."

Peng Fei winked at Zhuang Rui, and the two of them hung at the back of the team.

"What's wrong? Didn't we agree to find a time to get rid of them?"

Everyone is curious, and with the submachine gun in his hand and the five magazines full of bullets, Zhuang Rui is full of confidence. Even if he is besieged by a pack of prairie wolves again, he is not afraid now.

In the morning, Zhuang Rui had already discussed with Peng Fei. After entering the jungle, they would find an opportunity to get rid of the people who followed them. Zhuang Rui also knew in his heart that Hu Rong would not let the two of them enter Savage Mountain.

Yes, the legend here is not so beautiful.

"Brother Zhuang, it's almost 40 kilometers to go back and forth from here. Even if I am alone, I'm afraid it will take me a long time. If you follow, then..."

Peng Fei stopped talking, but Zhuang Rui also understood the meaning of his words. Was he afraid that he could not keep up with him? Was he being underestimated?

Zhuang Rui smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's okay, your brother Zhuang used to be a good long-distance runner. The distance of thirty or forty kilometers is no problem..."

Zhuang Rui is not bragging. When he was in college, his best time in the five-kilometer run was 18 minutes and 22 seconds.

His eyes had not changed at that time. Now that he has spiritual energy in his body, he can recover from fatigue at any time. Zhuang Rui does not take the distance of forty kilometers back and forth into his eyes.

"Brother Zhuang, that's not the case. It's difficult to run on this mountain road. I can't increase my speed. Even if I can walk five kilometers an hour, that's pretty good..."

Peng Fei scratched his head a little. He thought the trip was too simple, and he also made a common-sense mistake. The distance on the scale on the map was very different from the actual distance, especially in a mountainous environment.

Many of the reasons why the Kuomintang always lost battles in the past were because of this. The bald Chiang Kai-shek often did this kind of thing. He sat in the war room and pointed at the map, making his troops exhausted.

But Jiang didn't know that in reality, the straight-line distance on the map might contain some mountains or rivers and streams, which were all obstacles that hindered the troops from moving forward quickly.

Including during the Battle of Huaihai, if Chiang did not blow up the Huayuankou and divert the Yellow River into the Yellow Flood Area, it would not be easy for the People's Liberation Army to encircle and annihilate the fully mechanized Huang Baitao and Huang Wei Corps. And these are obviously maps.

What cannot be displayed.

Zhuang Rui was a little stunned by Peng Fei's words. He was not afraid of physical exertion, because it could be replenished with spiritual energy, but walking five kilometers in an hour was a bit too slow. In this case, even if there were no other circumstances,

This round trip will take eight hours.

If he really disappeared in this Savage Mountain for eight hours, I'm afraid Hu Rong would organize people to search the mountain. Thinking of this, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but scratch his head.

"Brother Zhuang, we are entering the mountains now. You two, please follow closely. Do not load the bullets and keep the muzzle of the gun pointed down. If you encounter prey, I will call you..."

Zhang Guojun looked back and saw that Zhuang Rui and the others were already twenty or thirty meters behind. He couldn't help but shook his head. The city man's health just wasn't good. He had just walked a few kilometers and he couldn't hold on any longer.

"Brother Zhang, I understand..." Zhuang Rui replied from afar.

"If I rush there now, I should be able to come back in the evening. I'm sorry, Brother Hu..."

Zhuang Rui looked at his watch and saw that it was not yet 8 o'clock. He made up his mind and whispered to Peng Fei: "Let's leave now and try to get back before dark..."

Although Peng Fei had the intention not to take Zhuang Rui with him, but seeing that he had made up his mind, there was nothing he could do. He nodded and said: "Brother Zhuang, let's talk ugly up front. If you can't keep up with me, then we will

Come back, I'll go alone at night..."
