~14 min read 2,712 words

A group of four people who liked outdoor hiking came from the capital, inquired about the mountain patrol team's mountain entry service, but didn't want to participate at all. After just asking about the route, the four of them prepared and entered the mountains.

They were roughly moving along the safe route found by the mountain patrol team, but people have misfortunes. Along the way, the four of them ran into a truck carrying unknown cargo, with four people on the truck. Seeing their outdoor attire, they looked rich at a glance, so they made a temporary decision and grabbed the four of them.

After waiting for a small hillside, the four struggled fiercely, and finally, one person successfully ran away and luckily ran into the team led by He Qingyuan and Old Han with a tour group entering the mountains, escaping from death.

He Qingyuan, of course, couldn't abandon those tourists to save people, so he could only let Old Han take people back to report the news and let Duojie decide.

After listening to the account of the tourist who luckily escaped, Duojie ordered: "Zha Cuo, Dongzhiba, Reporter Shao..."

"Leader, I want to follow the action! Close-range shooting and recording!" Shao Yunfei raised his hand in a hurry, afraid that if he said it a second late, he would be abandoned and not allowed to follow into the mountains.

Duojie was silent for a while, looked at Wang Yan on the side, and after the latter smiled and nodded, Duojie then said: "Okay, you follow, but obey orders in all actions. And Bai Ju too; this counts as your first time following into the mountains, don't act on your own."

"Yes!" Bai Ju grinned, very happy. However, seeing Shao Yunfei next to her also grinning foolishly at her, she glared at him in disgust.

"That's it, hurry up and pack, we're entering the mountains now. Dongzhiba, you drive this comrade to the county hospital; he was beaten not lightly, get it treated. Also, go and tell the public security side, let them send some more manpower..."

Following Duojie's orders, everyone prepared to set off in an orderly manner.

Although the mountain patrol team had indeed relaxed a bit during the previous crackdown on poaching, with the increase in foreign tourists and the increase in many illegal hikers, plus Duojie's sense of worry, the mountain patrol team returned to its original state.

The supplies for the trip were always prepared sufficiently, ensuring that they could operate in Bolamula for half a month. Personal items were also packed daily, capable of acting at the first moment.

After checking the cars and firearms, the members of the mountain patrol team drove four cars out directly. This was considering that they might not only need to rescue the three tourists who were caught but also that there might be other people caught or more criminals.

"Oh my, it's really good. I've been looking forward to it all day, and finally, I can enter the mountains." Sitting in the passenger seat, Shao Yunfei took pictures outside with his camera, "Previously, I was only on the periphery, but this time I've come so deep, it feels different all of a sudden."

Bai Ju was driving in the driver's seat: "Can you roll up the window when you're not shooting? It's all dust; aren't you choking?"

"Oh, sorry," Shao Yunfei hurriedly rolled up the car window, turned his head back and said apologetically, "This is my first time entering the mountains; I'm really too excited. Wang Yan, do you think we'll have to have a gunfight with them later?"

He deliberately didn't look at Bai Ju and talked to Wang Yan sitting in the back row, just to annoy Bai Ju.

Sure enough, Bai Ju glared at him and gave a huff of annoyance.

Wang Yan in the back row sat with his arms crossed: "Everyone has courage when holding a gun; no one will raise their hands to surrender without firing a shot."

"Report, leader! I apply to fire two shots!"

"Fire two shots? You can't even hold the gun steady; it's purely a waste of bullets!" Bai Ju said, "You just honestly obey orders and listen to commands; don't think about those things."

"Our mountain patrol team isn't that poor, right? I can't even fire two shots to try? I've even been to the army to interview before, and they let me fire two shots when they were target practicing."

"It's been two days; you two should save some energy. You're talking until your mouths are dry; how much extra water did you drink? In the no-man's land, do I need to tell you how important water is?"

Shao Yunfei was thick-skinned and smiled cheekily: "Then leader, can I fire two shots?"

Wang Yan grabbed the gun next to him and handed it to him: "It's empty here; if you're willing to fire, you can fire a few shots to see. Shooting people is out of the question; after all, there are victims. If you shoot someone to death, how wronged would they be? Will you pay with your life?"

"Then forget it," Shao Yunfei pushed the gun back, avoiding it, "I've fired just for the sake of firing before; I couldn't hit the target at a hundred meters. I forgot about the victims."

"Then you really are a good reporter for the people," Bai Ju said with full sarcasm.

Shao Yunfei knew he was in the wrong, didn't argue anymore, and turned to ask about other things.

Bai Ju, of course, was impatient, and she didn't know that much about the mountains. Wang Yan was relatively patient, roughly telling Shao Yunfei about the things he had experienced and knew.

Shao Yunfei spoke quite well; it was about maintaining the exposure of Mazhi County, which could allow Mazhi County to develop toward the better more quickly. Just like what Mazhi County is experiencing now, how many people have come? It has already made the whole county earn money.

After all, Mazhi County only has a total of more than 40,000 people. With hundreds or thousands of tourists coming to consume and circulate in the county, one yuan can be magnified into five or six yuan.

So Wang Yan was willing to talk to Shao Yunfei about these things, let him play a role, and ensure the exposure of Mazhi County...

The sun was about to set, and everyone set up camp under the sunset.

Wang Yan was still doing the work of a chef, trying to make the bland food taste better.

Shao Yunfei drank meat soup: "If it were on the plains, it would be hot by now, but we still have to wear thick clothes at night here."

Duojie smiled: "Reporter Shao is adapting very quickly."

"Didn't I come along a few times before? It's just that there wasn't a clear mountain patrol goal like this time, and Wang Yan, this great killing god, also came along. I feel a bit excited, as if a gunfight is about to start."

Shao Yunfei said, "Then when will we be able to find people?"

"It depends on luck," Sangba said, "I told you before, Bolamula is so big, how can we find people? We can only search in their possible range. If we can find some traces, it would be good; we can follow and track them. If there are no footprints, we have to keep circling in the mountains until our supplies are insufficient and we have to withdraw."

"Then looking at it this way, those three tourists are probably in bad luck," Shao Yunfei lamented.

Bai Ju glared: "Can you stop being so discouraged?"

Duojie waved his hand, still smiling: "If no one had escaped, it would be hard to say. Now that someone has run out, those three tourists will definitely be fine."

Shao Yunfei reacted for a moment, then gave a long 'oh': "I was wondering why you didn't seem anxious; so that's how it is."

"How is it?" Bai Ju hadn't used her brain yet and asked, taking the conversation.

"Think about it. One tourist escaped and was saved by the mountain patrol team. After that, our mountain patrol team will definitely come. If these criminals killed the people, wouldn't that be adding crime to crime?"

"And most importantly, there's Wang Yan. He's a famous killing god. If we find them and they don't beat us, they can still bargain with us based on those three tourists; otherwise, they would definitely die."

Shao Yunfei said, "They want money; if they can ask for their lives, they definitely don't want to die."

"Okay, I didn't expect your brain to turn quite fast. Actually, I knew all of this; I was just testing you," Bai Ju smiled awkwardly, not admitting that her brain speed was slow.

Shao Yunfei laughed triumphantly, then turned his head to look at Wang Yan on the side: "Wang Yan, your name can now stop children from crying at night."

"Look at what you're saying; who would use me to scare children for no reason? It should be using poachers to scare them."

Wang Yan waved his hand with a smile, "I am a decent good person. Although I did kill quite a few people, I didn't mean to. It was entirely emergency avoidance."

"Actually, if possible, I don't want to kill those people. After all, they have the greatest value if they are alive; we can get some money. But if they are killed, we still have to pay for gasoline to cremate them; it's purely losing money."

"You calculate accounts like this?" Shao Yunfei's eyes widened.

"Are you referring to me being able to back down for money?" Wang Yan laughed, "What's impossible? What we need to solve is the problem, and solving the problem requires money. Poachers can come up with money, can let us continue to do things better, and solve problems better. Letting them live is no big deal."

"Unless they are guilty of heinous crimes, we should still give people a chance to turn over a new leaf. Look at that group of people who surrounded and killed us before; the most serious one was only sentenced to life imprisonment. And that wasn't because they surrounded and killed us, but because other things were found out during the trial, and they were sentenced for multiple crimes together."

Everyone wasn't nervous, even if they hadn't seen the shadows of those three tourists, it didn't stop everyone from chatting and laughing together.

After all, they were tourists who entered by themselves and had nothing to do with the members of the mountain patrol team, so they couldn't empathize with their joys and sorrows. Unless it was someone the mountain patrol team was familiar with or their own relatives, everyone might be anxious and unable to sleep well.

So everyone followed their own rhythm, driving and patrolling with the best expectations, doing their best and leaving the rest to fate.

In the end, they were all adults and had to be responsible for their own choices. The county specifically arranged for people to distribute leaflets and preach to foreign tourists, on one hand, to promote the Bolamula tourism service of the mountain patrol team, and on the other hand, to dissuade tourists from illegally entering Bolamula.

This is not contradictory. After all, the dangers in Bolamula have been clearly stated by the propaganda officers over and over again. But they still formed groups privately and crossed illegally. Who can be blamed if problems arise?

But words can't be said too absolutely. After all, reality tells us that as long as people are shameless, then everything can be blamed...

Just like this, the mountain patrol team wandered in the mountains for four days. When it was the afternoon of the fourth day, on the vast plateau, three figures suddenly appeared.

"Go over and take a look."

Duojie ordered, and Sangba turned the direction and drove over.

The three cars behind followed, and in a while, they arrived nearby.

These three people were very miserable, with bruised noses and swollen faces, cracked lips, pale complexions, and dirty bodies. They were carrying large backpacks, and they were all dazed, swaying.

Seeing a car coming from afar, the three seemed to have seen a savior. One rushed forward a few steps and jumped and waved wildly, one knelt on the ground staggering, and one simply lay down. The three of them were several meters apart.

The four cars stopped one after another, and Duojie and the others got out of the car.

"You are from the capital... know..."

"It's us! It's us!" The three nodded like chickens pecking at rice, their words quite choked with sobs.

It happened to be evening, so they simply set up camp and got a hot meal for the three of them.

It was also while eating that the three told about their encounter these past few days.

It turned out that after the other person ran away, the three were beaten hard again and then pulled to a place. There was a camp of dozens of people, and there were more than twenty people holding guns, who were said to be gold panners.

When they got there, the three thought they would also be arranged to be black laborers panning for gold. As a result, they weren't. I don't know what happened, but after a while, the four people who tied them up were beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and the packages and clothes they had taken away were all returned to the three of them. They were blindfolded again and driven out.

The car drove a considerable distance, and that group of people pulled the three of them off the car, pointed to a direction and said that that was the route for the mountain patrol team to take people into the mountains for fun, and they would definitely see people in three to five days, and then they disappeared.

Duojie comforted the three, said some polite words, asked about the situation of those people in more detail, and then tentatively asked a key question: "You all like wilderness survival, so identifying directions should be something you can do, right?"

One person was quite clever: "Leader, you don't want us to point the way for you, do you?"

"Illegal mining is an illegal criminal act, not to mention that they also kidnapped and robbed you. It's simply a heinous criminal gang. We absolutely won't let them go and must resolutely crack down on them. Don't worry, you just point to a rough location. Tomorrow morning, we will send you out first."

Fortunately, the three of them had some professionalism. Although they couldn't directly lock the location, based on the map provided by the mountain patrol team, plus their incredibly profound memory, they still locked the rough range.

"There's about two more days of travel." Duojie raised his head and scanned the circle, and finally, his eyes fell on Wang Yan.

Wang Yan simply said: "Tomorrow morning, Old Han will drive them out; four people can also push the car. We will go directly over and wipe them out."

His team status is quite high, and Duojie respects him very much, and is not afraid of Wang Yan seizing his power. Because the changes in the mountain patrol team and the changes in the county were all brought about by Wang Yan's own strength. The members of the mountain patrol team often discussed privately that talent is just different.

Duojie nodded: "Let's do it this way."

Others had no opinions, and the matter was settled. Everyone was still eating and sleeping as usual, not caring at all.

Instead, it was Shao Yunfei, the reporter, who was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He interviewed the three tourists and asked very carefully, and then tossed and turned in the tent, and was scolded by Bai Ju again.

The next day, after breakfast, they acted according to the plan formulated yesterday and went directly to kill that group of gold panners...
