Chapter 482: A clean and neat counterattack
That silly roe deer was led by Li Long and tied to the slope to eat grass. He washed all these fritillaria and dried them, spreading them out on several carrying poles before they could be put down.
Liu Shanmin looked at those carrying poles and suddenly asked:
"You say if those people digging fritillaria each got a carrying pole, could they also dry fritillaria?"
"That's true. The problem is they don't know how to weave." After Li Long dried the fritillaria, he went to organize the air-dried roe deer meat. After hanging it up, he went to dry the bedding.
Fritillaria couldn't be dried in one day. In the afternoon, Li Long let Liu Shanmin watch here, and he went to Little White Poplar Gully, put down the braised offal, checked the carrying poles, and told Xie Yun Dong.
"It's no problem to put it here." Xie Yun Dong managed these people very carefully, "Everyone knows how much they weave, it won't be lost, and everyone will watch."
"That's the truth, I wouldn't have pulled those carrying poles over if I had known." Li Long smiled and said, "Fine, you guys get busy with yours, I'm going back. Later, I'll come over every day to count and check. Maybe I'll come over every two or three days, just tell everyone well."
"Fine." Xie Yun Dong nodded, Li Long went to greet his older brother again, drove the tractor, and left here.
When the tractor was halfway, the sun had already set, the sunset glow rose, the sky in the west was red, and large and small clouds turned into fire clouds, very beautiful.
Without a mobile phone, it couldn't be recorded, the brilliance was only for a moment, so some people used words to keep these brilliance, for those who couldn't see to imagine.
When Li Long continued to drive the tractor west, he stopped in a gully.
The road he originally drove out was on the grass by the forest, and by the grass was a small creek. When the tractor came and went, it just happened to press over the grass, not entering the forest or the creek.
Now a pine tree lay across the grass, looking like a tree from the side had fallen, blocking the way.
The pine branches weren't thick, the caliber was only twenty centimeters or so, and one person could move it.
Li Long didn't get off the tractor immediately. He looked toward the forest side first, then jumped down.
The tractor didn't turn off. Li Long didn't go to the tree immediately but went to the side of the tractor bucket, looking like he was releasing water.
The two people in the forest were very patient, like cats accustomed to catching mice, knowing when to launch to hit the target in one blow.
After Li Long finished releasing water, he adjusted the posture of the gun, then went to the tractor head, preparing to move the tree away.
In the forest, Lin Xiao Hu and He Yi Ku were one in front and one behind. When Lin Xiao Hu formulated this plan, He Yi Ku took the initiative to propose that he would do the sneak attack alone, and Lin Xiao Hu would only be responsible for watching.
They had already obtained the things they wanted from the last point.
Although the things weren't many, they were all good things. Even Lin Xiao Hu didn't expect that after being disappointed for several days, he found truly valuable things here, mostly hard currency. Even if not discussed by cultural relic value, they could be exchanged for huge wealth.
Enough for them to make a comeback.
This map wasn't obtained in vain, this trip to Tianshan wasn't in vain, and the hard work of these days wasn't in vain.
The things were obtained. According to Lin Xiao Hu's meaning, they should just leave to avoid long nights and many dreams. After all, there were many forest rangers in the mountains, and not a few drifters. Those scattered drifters weren't terrible, but if they were really gathered, two fists couldn't defeat four hands, and they didn't have any handy tools, so they would inevitably suffer.
But He Yi Ku wouldn't. He had been enduring it all along, and had ideas about Li Long and that gun.
Lin Xiao Hu agreed. After observing for two days, he customized such a plan.
Very simple: cut the road, intercept and kill.
He Yi Ku originally thought about sneaking an attack at the wooden cabin at night, but was vetoed by Lin Xiao Hu. Li Long was in the house at the wooden cabin, with the door buckled, so it wasn't easy for them to trick Li Long out.
But here, as long as the road was blocked, Li Long could only move the tree if he wanted to go back. As long as he moved the tree, he had to get off the tractor, which gave them a chance.
Lin Xiao Hu was also at ease with He Yi Ku's skills. He had safely reached Tianshan all the way, and when he met several drifters in the mountains who wanted to make a move, He Yi Ku quickly solved the problem.
As long as Li Long didn't have a chance to use the gun, he believed He Yi Ku could solve Li Long.
As long as Li Long was solved, letting He Yi Ku lose his obsession, then the two of them could leave easily.
After all, this was in the mountains. Even if the matter was discovered at that time, it would be at least a day later. And investigating such matters in the mountains, it wouldn't be found out without a few days. By then, he and He Yi Ku would have long since gone out of Xinjiang to be at ease.
The plan was just that simple.
"I'm going up, boss." He Yi Ku whispered, moving forward at the same time.
"Hmm, seek to solve the problem in one move, don't leave future troubles!"
Lin Xiao Hu saw Li Long lifting one end of the pine tree there, preparing to move it away, knowing this was the best time, so he whispered.
When He Yi Ku touched forward, Lin Xiao Hu looked at the two bags in the forest; the bags contained the things they had obtained this time.
It didn't matter if that Boss Li died or not, and it didn't matter if He Yi Ku could get the gun or not, as long as these two bags were there, nothing else mattered.
Even if He Yi Ku couldn't handle the person, the two of them could dive into the forest; he thought that Li Long wouldn't dare to dive in when it was about to get dark.
Seeing He Yi Ku had touched the edge of the forest, and that Li Long was still bending over and moving the tree with effort, Lin Xiao Hu felt at ease and walked down. The appearance still had to be done, otherwise, He Yi Ku might have a knot in his heart.
Just as Lin Xiao Hu was about to walk to the edge of the forest, He Yi Ku had already accumulated power, pounced fiercely, and the stick prepared in his hand smashed toward Li Long's head. This was the one-hit kill Lin Xiao Hu mentioned.
Although He Yi Ku was very confident that he could solve Li Long one-on-one, this wasn't a competition, he had to look at the result.
Lin Xiao Hu saw He Yi Ku's action and knew this was stable, so he walked out in big strides, not needing to hide anything.
Then, "Bang", the gun rang!
Li Long already knew this was a trap when he saw the pine tree.
It wasn't easy to turn around here, but he had already discovered it. He could have turned around and left earlier.
However, carrying a gun, Li Long was also bold. Since someone wanted to mess with him, if he didn't catch this person, wouldn't he be worried all the time in the future?
So he intended to take a risk and fish the person out to solve it!
Li Long's advantage was that his hearing and eyesight were stronger than ordinary people, and his strength was also great, so he wasn't afraid of people shooting dark guns nearby. Otherwise, he really wouldn't be afraid.
Those who could shoot dark guns in this forest wouldn't have gone to such trouble to attack.
Lin Xiao Hu and He Yi Ku talked in the forest. Although the voice was small, Li Long heard it all, so he simply followed the plan. Getting off the car to release water was actually using the tractor bucket as cover, opening the gun safety, loading the bullet, adjusting to the most convenient position, and waiting for He Yi Ku to make a move, waiting for Lin Xiao Hu to come out, before raising the gun and pulling the trigger!
The full-power bullet of the 56 semi-automatic rifle immediately made He Yi Ku's accumulated power leak out. His accumulated momentum instantly leaked out like a punctured water bag.
"Plop!"
He Yi Ku fell to the ground with the stick. Li Long's shot hit his shoulder, and he felt like he had been smashed by a hammer, and only then did he feel the huge pain.
The entire right scapula was shattered.
Li Long was actually vaguely prepared when lifting the pine tree, his hand didn't leave the gun much, and he had been thinking about how to shoot the fastest. It was good to be prepared.
Lin Xiao Hu was also stunned when he heard the gunshot. Seeing Li Long knock He Yi Ku down, he turned and ran into the forest!
"Bang bang!"
Li Long didn't warn at all, shooting two shots at Lin Xiao Hu's legs.
At a distance of seven or eight meters, Li Long still had this bit of accuracy. The first shot hit Lin Xiao Hu's calf, and although the second shot missed, Lin Xiao Hu also fell to the ground with a scream following this gunshot.
He Yi Ku was much more manly than him, not making a sound until now, but Lin Xiao Hu was different. The bullet hit the bone, and his sound was tragic.
Knocking both people down, Li Long felt slightly relieved, entered the forest, dragged Lin Xiao Hu out like a dead dog, and placed him beside He Yi Ku.
"Why attack me?" Li Long pointed the gun at Lin Xiao Hu and asked.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..." Lin Xiao Hu knew this person really dared to shoot, he hurriedly shouted, "We originally just wanted to find someone to rob some money, and then leave here... really didn't intend to target anyone specifically..."
If Li Long hadn't heard their conversation earlier, he might have really believed it.
"Bang!" Li Long shot Lin Xiao Hu's knee—with current medical conditions, even if this person could come out of prison in the future, he would be useless. This place, now it couldn't be cured. "Not speaking well, this is the price." Li Long snorted coldly, stopped caring about Lin Xiao Hu, and aimed the gun at He Yi Ku:
"He won't say, you say! Why rob me?"
"Wanted your gun." He Yi Ku admitted very straightforwardly, "Of course you are also quite rich, also wanted to rob your money, you guessed right, we were targeting you, come at me for anything, don't touch my boss!" He Yi Ku was still very horizontal at this time.
"Bang!" Li Long didn't spare him either, shooting his left knee: "Fine, fulfill you!"
The grudge was already formed. Li Long didn't intend to kill, but didn't want the other party to have a good time either. He found a rope, tied the hands of the two people. Lin Xiao Hu was still screaming there, Li Long said impatiently:
"You'd better shut up, otherwise I don't mind breaking your other leg!"
This sentence was particularly effective. At that time, Lin Xiao Hu didn't dare to open his mouth.
Li Long rudely threw the two people onto the tractor bucket, turned the tractor head, and drove toward the outside of the mountain.
Matters in the mountains were managed by the Forestry Team. The Forestry Team had a police station. Li Long knew the place. This matter was clear, and the two people had confessions, so Li Long wasn't afraid of the two people retracting their confessions.
Moreover, he was considered an extra-budgetary employee of the Forestry Team. Such matters, even if the sky broke, the Forestry Team police station wouldn't favor outsiders. Moreover, this was Northern Xinjiang. Some people's hands were long, but they couldn't reach here.
And Li Long had also thought about it. In 1983, a relatively special matter was about to start. When it spread to Northern Xinjiang, he thought these two people, it should be considered malicious robbery, right? Should be...
Fine, just like this.
After sorting out the matter, Li Long felt relieved. He drove the tractor, and it took more than an hour to reach the Forestry Team police station.
!.
The police station had an agency similar to a police station at the Forestry Team settlement in the mountainous area, with one person on duty. When the tractor drove over, several Forestry Team people came over to look.
Didn't expect Bolati to be there too. He heard Li Long's tractor and ran over.
"Li Long, what's wrong?" Li Long just got off the car, before he could speak to the police station people, Bolati asked first.
Li Long was his friend. Coming here, he, the landlord, naturally had to ask and help.
The police of the police station also came out, rubbing his eyes and looking at Li Long.
"I am an extra-budgetary forest ranger of our Forestry Team." Li Long took out the proof he rarely used to show that person, and also explained to Bolati:
"These two people ambushed me in the mountains, wanting to kill me and rob me. Fortunately, I was carrying a gun, otherwise, I would have been killed by the two of them."
Li Long emphasized the matter of killing and robbing. That police station cadre was immediately excited.
"What? Kill you? Rob you?" Bolati's voice suddenly became loud, "Are they looking for death?" Saying that, he went up to hit people, but seeing so much blood in the tractor bucket, he was a bit embarrassed.
"It's okay, I was carrying a gun, and my reaction was fast. I hit them, and after I asked, I brought them over. This one is called..."
"You can just call him Mustafa." Bolati patted the young policeman and smiled:
"One of our own."
Li Long said what he knew first, including that these two had exchanged things with him before, had been secretly observing him in the forest these two days, and including He Yi Ku's testimony just now, emphasizing that they wanted to rob his gun and his money.
This Mustafa was really excited, immediately starting to take notes. There was no phone here, he hurriedly finished recording, and then went to interrogate people.
Lin Xiao Hu and He Yi Ku were almost shaken to death, now only thinking about finishing speaking as soon as possible and then having someone treat them, so they confessed readily.
The facts were clear, the evidence was solid, and Li Long was fine here.
People were carried down. There was a barefoot doctor at the Forestry Team settlement, who came over and roughly stopped the bleeding for the two people, and dug out the bullets. No matter what, Li Long was one of their own, and these people could still distinguish how to treat enemies.
Moreover, after Bolati emphasized and publicized that Li Long was the person who exchanged wine and food for him, these people's attitude toward Li Long was even more enthusiastic.
And that Mustafa was really police material, associating it with the previous matter of Hamiti being robbed. After asking and bluffing, these two admitted it.
Now it's good, it turned out to be continuous crimes!
Bolati let Li Long rest well here. Li Long was still thinking about the wooden cabin side. After Mustafa said he was fine here, he drove the tractor and left.
These two criminals were settled here first, and he would take these two to the county early tomorrow morning.
Li Long felt relieved.
Driving the tractor back to the place blocked by the pine tree, Li Long stopped. He remembered the words of the tall, thin man Tang Hongsheng and sneaked into the pine forest.
It was dark, Li Long could barely see a little bit at night, and soon, he saw the two bags placed in the forest.
Stepping forward to lift them, they were really not light.
It seemed these two people had a good harvest!
When Li Long returned to the wooden cabin, it was completely dark. Liu Shanmin saw Li Long return and breathed a sigh of relief.
He had also heard the gunshot earlier and had some guesses. Li Long hadn't returned for so long after the gunshot, Liu Shanmin was also quite worried. Now seeing Li Long return, he felt relieved.
"Met two robbers on the road, let me send them to the Forestry Team." Li Long explained, "Should be able to sleep at ease tonight."
"You mean... it was those two?" Liu Shanmin understood in seconds.
"Hmm, it was those two, the two the tall, thin man was afraid of."
"Heh, meeting you is considered their bad luck." Liu Shanmin was completely relieved.
Then he sniffed:
"In your tractor bucket..."
"Their blood. I accidentally counterattacked, considered legitimate defense, right? Hit their legs." Li Long smiled and said.
"You even know legitimate defense?" Liu Shanmin was even more interested in Li Long this time, "There really aren't many people who know this these days."
"I like reading books." Li Long explained, then said:
"Fine, you rest, I'll wash the tractor bucket and it'll be fine."
Having blood, especially human blood in the tractor bucket, wasn't a good thing. Li Long took a bucket to the spring to get water, washed the tractor bucket well, the bloody smell faded a lot, but it wasn't gone. He took a small broom to sweep the tractor bucket, washed it with two more buckets of water, felt it was about the same, and only then returned to the house.
Liu Shanmin also retreated to the shed.
At night, two figures came to the forest opposite to look here.
Boss Deng looked at the wooden cabin and said viciously:
"Damn it, I can't handle the Forestry Team, can't I handle you?"
"Boss Deng, what do you intend to do?" The person beside asked, "Let's just vent our anger, don't make it too big."
"Rest assured, I won't make it too big." Boss Deng pointed to the carrying poles outside Li Long's wooden cabin and said:
"These carrying poles together aren't cheap. We'll set fire to burn these things, I don't believe he won't feel heartache? Causing us to lose so much, if we don't retaliate, I can't swallow this breath!"
"Fine, I'll follow you!"
The two people slowly touched toward the carrying poles, dragging a few handfuls of dry grass, intending to ignite them when they got to the carrying poles.
Anyway, they wouldn't do anything else, just ignite and run. It was estimated that the people in the house were sleeping dead and wouldn't discover it at all, and it would be too late when they discovered it.
Just at this time, a wolf howl suddenly came from not far away!
When Boss Deng looked back belatedly, three gray wolves had already surrounded the two of them in a fan shape!
Damn it, how could there be wolves here in the middle of the night!
"Ah—help!"
The startled scream directly woke up Liu Shanmin in the shed outside and Li Long in the house. Li Long subconsciously took the gun and came to the door.
