Chapter 34, Latent Investigation
Luo Yong and Luo Jin are about the same age, Luo Yong is twenty-six and Luo Jin is twenty-three. They can almost be said to have grown up together. Naturally, they have a good friendship with each other. In addition, Luo Jin's personality is also very versatile.
, after the two chatted for a while, the depression in Luo Yong's heart obviously dissipated a lot.
At this moment, Luo Jin, who was mid-sentence, suddenly stopped and said, "Wait a minute!"
"What?" Luo Yong subconsciously clenched the two axes in his hands and tensed up his nerves.
Without saying much, Luo Jin quickly took two steps towards the left front with his dexterity, then squatted down and said, "Footprints."
"Footprints?" Luo Yong, who also came up, glanced at the snow, then frowned, "Why didn't I see it?"
"It snowed last night. The footprints were covered a lot, but there was still a very shallow outline left. You can see it if you look carefully." While speaking, Luo Jin's eyes kept looking around.
Scanning, as if looking for some clues.
"Could it be that you left it yesterday?" Even so, Luo Yong's tone became obviously more solemn.
"Impossible." Luo Jin shook his head decisively, "We didn't go here at all yesterday, and this footprint leads in that direction..."
As he spoke, Luo Jin, who had already figured out the direction from the traces left on the snow, quickly pointed in one of the directions, "I'm afraid that people from other tribes came here after we left yesterday."
When Luo Yong heard this, his breathing suddenly became rapid. If he found people from other tribes, it meant that there might be a war, and the opportunity to make contributions was close at hand!
Luo Jin, who seemed to realize something, quickly glanced at Luo Yong, with a hint of speechlessness in his tone, "Hey, don't do anything stupid, act without orders, or act without permission. You will be severely punished, and you haven't earned any credit yet.
Do you just want to be punished first?"
"Uh." Luo Yong's expression froze when he heard this, "Then what do you think we should do?"
"You go back first, meet up with the other wolf warriors, and protect the people you brought here. I'll go over there and have a look."
"Hey, Luo Jin, you just told me not to act without permission, but you are going to act without permission yourself?"
In this regard, Luo Jin said confidently, "What does unauthorized action mean? I am the captain of the reconnaissance team. The clan leader said that if enemies or other tribes are discovered, I have the authority to decide whether to conduct reconnaissance!"
"Then you take me with you." Luo Yong said with a unwillingness to give up.
"Don't make trouble, you have no investigative experience. Besides, you are so big. If I take you there, wouldn't that increase the risk of my exposure?" As he spoke, Luo Jin pushed Luo Yong again, "Hurry back and protect others.
, If something unexpected happens, I will send a signal, and after I determine the location of the enemy tribe, if there is to be a war next, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to show off, why are you anxious?"
After all, Luo Yong was finally persuaded to go back. Luo Jin, relieved, quickly took out a large white fur from the package behind him and put it on his body. This fur was specially made by Luo Ji in the tribe.
They came out and gave them to the reconnaissance team. In the words of their clan leader, this is called protective color. As long as they put on this white fur and lie down on the snow, the enemy will not be able to detect their existence at all if they don't look carefully.
Luo Jin, who was wearing this white fur, lowered his body and slowly followed the footprints left on the snow. During the whole process, he was in a calm mood as he quickly entered the state, and his ears carefully captured the surroundings.
All the sounds were heard, and the eyes kept wandering.
"There's someone!" As a faint sound came, Luo Jin's heart tightened, and he quickly lay down on the ground. With the white fur on his body, he almost blended into the snow.
He carefully observed the surroundings with his wandering eyes, and saw two barbarians walking by dozens of meters away. The other party did not notice Luo Jin, who had the upper hand on the high ground. After seeing the two barbarians walking away, he relaxed slightly.
He took a breath, maintained his posture lying on the snow, and slowly crawled forward for a certain distance with his arms...
"I saw it." Looking from a distance, the opponent's tribe camp was only as big as a fist, but Luo Jin's face was full of solemnity, "I didn't expect that there is a tribe in such a place. This tribe and
The one-way journey of our tribe only takes half a day. If the other party discovers our tribe and launches a sudden attack..."
Thinking of this, Luo Jin's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, "Damn it, it was my mistake. After finding the white radish yesterday, I rushed back to report to the clan leader. Instead, I neglected to explore the surrounding area. I don't know if the other party has any
Notice the footprints we left yesterday, if we had noticed, our existence might have been exposed."
"What should we do? Should we retreat immediately and report the situation here to the clan leader, or should we further investigate the situation of this tribe?" Luo Jin's current position is quite far away from the opponent's tribe, and he can basically only see the outline of a camp.
, nothing else could be seen. This delicate situation put him in a dilemma. His mind was in confusion, and he didn't know what to do.
"Huh--" Luo Jin slowly exhaled a long breath, and forced himself to calm down, "Calm down, calm down! The protective color given to me by the clan leader is very useful, and there is basically snow around here. With the cover of the protective color, I can
It should be no problem to get close to a certain distance. After confirming some basic information, I will immediately find an opportunity to retreat. Well, just do that, it will be absolutely no problem!"
Holding his breath, Luo Jin crawled forward cautiously. During the whole process, he did not choose a straight line, but rather cleverly adopted a detour. While making the detour, he slowly approached, so that he could always keep himself
Taking advantage of the high ground, it can also prevent the traces left on the snow from being easily discovered by barbarians from the other tribe.
The distance got closer and closer, and the tribal camp that was originally only the size of a fist also continued to enlarge in his sight. After he approached a certain subtle distance, the sense of crisis generated by his body's instinct made him stop moving closer.
.
Luo Jin did not doubt his intuition. His intuition had saved him and his reconnaissance team many times during reconnaissance missions. Lying motionless on the snow, he was suppressing his sense of existence and breathing unusually slowly.
A pair of eyes kept scanning the opponent's tribal camp.
It was impossible to confirm the number of warriors and population of the opposing tribe in a short period of time. To do this, he would need at least a full day of lurking observation, but such long-term lurking at close range was too dangerous.
Therefore, he, who is quite clever, quickly thought of a way. He could count the tents. The tents would not run or hide. As long as the number of tents was clearly counted, the approximate number of people in the tribe would be known.
