Chapter 1123 Finally Taking the Lead
Green Fruit Forest, as the name suggests, is a forest full of green fruits.
Green fruit, a plant in the olive family, is astringent in the mouth. After being picked and dried, it is used as medicine. It has certain medicinal value and matures around June every year.
By now, all the green fruits on the trees had been picked.
When Lu Wei brought Xiaorou here, it was probably because of the immature green fruit. There should be a green fruit forest here, and the scenery is indeed good.
This forest is not small.
But with Xiaorou guiding them, they don't need to take the wrong path and go directly to where they have been.
This road is not easy.
It took them nearly an hour to reach the depths of the forest and saw a wooden house that looked to be quite old.
When I opened the fence gate, I saw that the yard was almost overgrown with weeds. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
There's movement!
Luo Yao's ears were so good that he had already heard a faint breathing sound in the house, if no outsiders had been here.
This person should be Lu Wei they are looking for.
"Be careful."
Although the person inside was Lu Wei, Luo Yao still ordered Zhang Xiaozheng and others to be more cautious. After all, Lu Wei was also the target of their arrest. If he resisted and hurt others, it would be troublesome.
"yes."
Instruct two agents to knock on the door with guns drawn.
"anyone there?"
"Get out of the way!" Luo Yao suddenly heard a soft sound coming from inside, which was the sound of the gun being pushed up, and he quickly warned.
Boom, boom!
Two gunshots were heard, and the already dilapidated door was hit with sawdust flying. After hearing the warning, the two agents who stepped forward to open the door immediately dodged to both sides and narrowly escaped death.
"Lu Wei, is that you?" Luo Yao and others squatted down and shouted inside.
No one responded.
Luo Yao gave Zhang Xiaozheng a wink and motioned for him to shout. Lu Wei didn't know him, but he should know Zhang Xiaozheng.
"Lu Wei, I am Zhang Xiaozheng. We can talk about anything you have to do. Why put yourself in this situation? You know, there is only a dead end if you resist. Our people have already surrounded this place!" Zhang Xiaozheng said loudly, "Come out and surrender. At least I will give you a fair trial."
"How do you know this place?" Lu Wei's voice came out from inside. It could be heard that he was obviously a little out of breath, probably because of injury.
"You don't need to worry about this. You can't run away anyway. If you resist stubbornly, you will definitely be dead. If you can come out, honestly explain the situation, and atone for your sins, you may be able to avoid death." Zhang Xiaozheng said.
"Adjutant Zhang, I know it's you, but your words don't count. If the superiors really want that person to operate, what can I do?"
"Then what do you want? To put it bluntly, if you want to die, do you want to die as a Chinese in an upright and dignified way, or do you carry the name of a traitor and not even be able to see your ancestors when you get down there?" Luo Yao came. One sentence.
This sentence touched Lu Wei's heart. Chinese people attach great importance to their ancestors. How miserable it would be if they had no face to see their ancestors.
"Lu Wei, if you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about your girlfriend. You must also know that we were able to find this place because your girlfriend told us. She didn't want to sell out, but she didn't want the baby in her belly. The child meets his biological father before he is born..."
Zhang Xiaozheng saw Luo Yaoyao's eyes bulging out. Why did Deputy Director Luo just open his mouth? Why didn't he know when Nurse Xiaorou was pregnant?
Not to mention Xiaorou, the rightful owner, she also looked at Luo Yao in disbelief with wide-eyed eyes, but did not deny it out loud.
Inside the room, Lu Wei was silent.
Just now he had no face to see his ancestors, so he was still a little hesitant and had reasons to break the pot. But if he really had a child, it would be different. If he had no heirs, he would naturally have nothing to worry about.
But now that there are descendants, it's different.
However, he didn't even know that Xiaorou was pregnant. Why did an outsider know about it before he did? Could it be that he was deceiving him?
"Is Xiaorou here? As long as she personally admits that she is pregnant, I will come out!" Lu Wei thought about it and decided.
"Miss Xiaorou, it's up to you, his life or death depends on your thoughts." Luo Yao turned around and whispered to Xiaorou.
Xiaorou was a little nervous, and kept pinching the corners of her clothes with her fingers. It was obvious that she was also fighting in her heart.
"Xiaorou, don't be nervous. A white lie can save a person's future. Which one do you choose?"
Encouraged by many looks, Xiaorou finally opened her mouth: "Brother Wei, it's me, I'm Xiaorou, are you listening?"
"Here, Xiaorou, is it really you?" the person inside asked eagerly, with a hint of joy evident in his tone.
"It's me, Brother Wei, don't do anything stupid. Come out quickly, explain the matter clearly, serve the crime, beg them to show mercy outside the law, and strive for leniency."
"Xiaorou, let me ask you, did they force you to come here?"
"No, Brother Wei, I came with them voluntarily. If you did something wrong, just change it. Why keep making the same mistake again and again?"
"Xiaorou, are you really pregnant with my child?"
As soon as this question was asked, Luo Yao raised his voice. As long as Xiaorou hesitated a little in answering, the other party would notice it.
At this time, Lu Wei was very sensitive and suspicious.
"Yes, I just discovered it too. I haven't had time to tell you yet." Xiaorou didn't hesitate and answered directly.
"Really?" A voice of great joy came from inside the room.
"Really, the inspection report is under the pillow. Didn't you see it when you went back?" Xiaorou asked.
"I, I..." Lu Wei was so excited that he couldn't speak. He was injured at the time and took away the medicine and bandages, so he couldn't care about this.
"Lu Wei, put down your gun now and come out on your own."
"No, I don't dare to go out. Once I go out, I may die. If you dare to come in, just come in." Lu Wei said loudly.
"Okay, we are here, but you have to promise not to do anything drastic, otherwise, don't blame us."
"Don't worry, since I promised you, I won't make a mistake." Lu Wei said feebly.
Luo Yao judged from Lu Wei's voice that he was seriously injured at the moment and was probably still running a fever. Even if he resisted, his combat effectiveness was quite limited.
Open the door and go in again.
There was no gunfire.
Then, a signal was given to enter.
Luo Yao, Zhang Xiaozheng and others slowly put away their weapons and entered the house. As soon as they entered the house, they smelled the smell of blood.
On a bed inside, there was a pale man lying, his lips turned white and chapped due to dehydration.
The gun fell to the ground and was kicked aside by the incoming man.
"Can you still go out when you see me like this?" Lu Wei turned his head slightly and asked with a sad smile.
For possible foreseeable situations, Luo Yao naturally made preparations and had people prepare first-aid kits and carry them with him.
Since Lu Wei might be injured, and this person was so important, how could he be allowed to die so easily?
"Viagra."
"Xiaorou..."
"Stop talking, let's get treatment first. If his injury continues, he will really die," Luo Yao said.
"Oh, okay." Xiaorou held back her tears and started to help.
The military doctor brought by Luo Yao came forward, did a brief inspection, raised his head and said: "The patient has a fever and a suppurating wound. He needs an operation immediately. However, the environment here makes it impossible to perform an operation. The person must be transferred."
"Did we bring a stretcher?"
"Bring it."
"Then transfer immediately."
"Wait a minute, if you can find this place, so can he. If I go out like this now, this is your last chance to kill me." Lu Wei suddenly said.
"who is he?"
"I don't know. He's a very powerful master. My injuries are all thanks to him." Lu Wei said.
"It seems that you have mastered the other party's secret, so they have to kill you to silence you to avoid future troubles." Luo Yao nodded and analyzed and judged.
"What should we do now, Deputy Director Luo?" Zhang Xiaozheng became anxious when he heard this.
"Don't worry, come with me, nothing will happen to you." Luo Yao said, at this time, it was time for his ears to come in handy.
"Yingjie, ask someone to bring the stretcher in and prepare to carry people."
"yes."
"Don't worry. If someone really wants Lu Wei's life, I would like to see who is the mantis and who is the oriole." Luo Yao said confidently.
After briefly treating Lu Wei's wounds, he was given an antipyretic injection, moved from the bed to a stretcher, and fixed with ropes.
"Let's go, don't take the way we came here, we have to take another way." Luo Yao said.
"Well, if someone really ambushed us on the way here, he would not have thought that we would take another route." Zhang Xiaozheng nodded.
There were already a lot of people in their group, but now there was Lu Wei, who had to be carried by someone. The way back would definitely be difficult.
Luo Yao actually paid attention to whether there was any suspicious person following him along the way, but he didn't gain much.
Maybe it was luck that they were not targeted.
Or maybe the person who wanted to kill Lu Wei had arrived at the Green Fruit Forest in advance, but the Green Fruit Forest was so big that he couldn't find it for a while.
After entering the green fruit forest, his hearing was naturally not as good as in the open area, and there were more interferences in the woods.
Unless he kept stopping and searching carefully with his ears, he would not be able to discover this "possible" enemy.
Luo Yao couldn't tell whether this enemy had come to Qingguo Forest for a while, but this enemy definitely existed.
Otherwise, Lu Wei would not be injured.
Moreover, Lu Wei's existence threatened his safety.
Knowing this, you can never be too prepared, that's enough.
"Everyone, please be vigilant and pay attention to your surroundings and your feet." Luo Yao reminded the people behind him while clearing the way in front.
"yes!"
Keep going.
"Stop!" Luo Yao was walking at the front and suddenly raised his hand to signal the team to stop. Everyone squatted down and hunched over.
"Deputy Director Luo, what's wrong?" Zhang Xiaozheng came over and asked softly.
"Go in that direction." Luo Yao pointed his hand, diverged at an angle in the direction of the original plan, and ordered.
"Walk."
A hundred meters away, a breathing sound was indeed heard. Lu Wei was right. If he walked out of the house, he would really die if there was no one to protect him and rescue him.
It's in a dense forest. If it's in an open area, a hundred meters is the sure-kill distance for a sniper.
In a dense forest, there are many factors that affect shooting accuracy. First of all, there are sight and angle issues, as well as wind, humidity, etc. There may be different environmental factors every few meters, which all affect shooting accuracy.
Of course, the closer the distance, the smaller the impact, and the farther the distance, the greater the impact, and in dense forests, long-distance sniping is simply not feasible.
Because the trees here grow in a disorderly manner, they have a very good blocking effect on the line of sight. Not to mention a hundred meters away, fifty meters is enough.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some talented gunners can carry out long-distance sniping in dense forests, but such masters are very few.
If you meet a master, you will be in trouble today. Even if Luo Yao's marksmanship is not bad, he doesn't have a handy weapon.
He can only try his best to remember this guy's aura. As long as he remembers this person's aura, he will be able to tell it immediately next time he appears.
Right now, it was important to save Lu Wei's life first. Lu Wei could give him the clues he wanted while he was alive. Time was running out, only one day and one night left.
Didn't come after me!
Luo Yao was secretly glad, but also felt a little regretful. If this guy really caught up with him, there might be a chance to set a trap and capture him alive.
Now it seems that it can't be done.
As the distance got further and further away, this person's aura disappeared from Luo Yao's range of perception.
"We're finally out, Adjutant Zhang. Send him to the hospital for surgery immediately." After coming out of the green fruit forest, Luo Yao breathed a sigh of relief and ordered Zhang Xiaozheng.
"Deputy Director Luo, what about you?"
"I'll stay here and try to see if I can catch that guy." Luo Yao said, "Which of you has a rifle, give me one."
"No, Deputy Director Luo, you can't take this risk." Zhang Xiaozheng said sternly.
"Don't worry, I won't go into the forest. I'll just stay outside the forest. Leave a car for me and go back before dark!" Luo Yao ordered.
When we go back now, Lu Wei is going to have an operation, so he probably won't be able to ask questions, so he might as well try and see if he can just wait and see.
Zhang Xiaozheng couldn't defeat Luo Yao, so he left two people and a car with him. Of course, he must have enough weapons and ammunition.
The only fly in the ointment is that it's just a one-shot shot, and there's no scope yet, so I can only make do with it, which is better than nothing.
Luo Yao found a good high point and asked one of them to act as an observer for him, while the other person drove the car into the woods to hide.
I waited until sunset, but no one came out of the woods.
Luo Yao knew that it would be useless to wait any longer. Even if he could wait, he would not have the time to waste it here.
We can only withdraw first.
In fact, not long after Luo Yao led his people to evacuate, a figure walked out of the green fruit forest, carrying a sniper rifle, looking at the direction where Luo Yao was driving away in a car, with a trace of complexity and fear in his eyes.
If Luo Yao hadn't appeared today, he might have taken action.
