Snow started to fall again.
When snowflakes fall on the ground, there is a sound, but ordinary people cannot hear it.
When Anne was eight years old, in order to practice listening to Xueluo's voice, she was taken by her mentor Miao Guangqi to spend two months in Alaska under the blizzard.
Along with her, there was also a little girl of the same age. The instructor said it was a child of a friend's family. Anne couldn't remember her name now.
That is also a little girl carved in jade, but her writing and manners are not flattering.
In Alaska, she snatched Anne's doll and tore it apart in front of Anne.
For this reason, Miao Guangqi beat up the little girl severely.
Since then, Anne has never seen her again.
Thinking about it now, this is actually very strange, because the trip to Alaska was not a trip, but a training.
Why does a child from a friend's family stay with Anne and her mentor
Unlike Lin Shuo who mainly focuses on olfactory memory, Anne focuses on auditory memory.
These past events were originally buried in the depths of Anne's memory, and they would not be remembered at ordinary times.
But tonight, when Anne walked inseparably beside Lin Shuo, surrounded by darkness, only the sound of wind and falling snow could be heard, this memory was awakened.
The same voice is in the ear, and the same reliable people are around.
But she quickly suppressed these thoughts, because she knew that the reason why Lin Shuo dared to go out at night was because her hearing was different from ordinary people.
Here is a barren mountain, without any light pollution, and when the clouds cover the sky, you can't see your fingers.
Lin Shuo's sense of smell couldn't be used because of the wind direction, and Anne's hearing was especially critical.
As for Zhang Jin who was traveling with him, this kid is a boring guy, even if he knows about the situation, he can't inform others.
So Anne didn't dare to be distracted at this time, but listened carefully to the movement around her.
Here is a dense forest in the valley, with snow on the branches above and tree trunks below. Moving forward rapidly in this almost absolutely dark environment, the three of them relied on their own abilities.
Anne naturally relies on hearing, the movement of snowflakes falling on the branches is different from the movement of snowflakes falling on the ground.
Here is a dense forest, the wind is not strong, the snowflakes fall almost vertically, where the snowflakes can fall on the ground, that is the gap in the dense forest.
Lin Shuo relied on his sense of smell.
In the coniferous forest here, the resin secreted from the tree trunks is a very good combustion accelerant, and at the same time the smell is strong, like a lighthouse on a dark reef.
Zhang Jin, on the other hand, saves more effort.
He rides a white wolf.
The night vision ability of wolves is not comparable to that of humans. This level of darkness is not a problem for white wolves.
The three of them shuttled through the dense forest in a team, without the two hind legs of Wei Xingshan and Di Lan, the speed was very fast.
The one who is currently leading the way among the three is Anne.
She has been using the secret technique "Listening to the Mountain" to lock the positions of the three people.
Originally, Anne's listening distance limit was five miles, and that required listening to the ground from time to time.
If only relying on the sound coming from the air, Anne's monitoring range would not be so wide.
Fortunately, the three men rode horses.
People are consciously quiet, horses are not.
Regardless of the sound of horseshoes or snorting, the movement is very loud and will reveal its owner.
After a while, Anne slowed down.
The two sides are already very close.
Even though he was facing the wind, at this distance, Lin Shuo could smell the smell of horse manure in front of him.
However, there is only the smell of horse manure, but no human smell.
Lin Shuo hastened a few steps, rushed to Anne and Bai Lang, and stopped them with his own body.
"He's not here." Lin Shuo whispered.
"Run?" Anne asked.
"Maybe." Lin Shuo was noncommittal, and felt a little strange.
These three people have been following all day, but they disappeared at night. There are two situations.
Either he really ran away, or there was fraud in it.
Lin Shuo wasn't worried about diverting the tiger away from the mountain, because Anne had already set up a painting prison at the camp, and Wei Xingshan still had night vision devices and a big spy.
In Lin Shuo's eyes, Wei Xingshan is a scum in close combat, but once he has a gun in his hand and his mind is not distracted, he is also a killer.
In this case, he couldn't lose the camp.
And it's not far from the camp, so if Wei Xingshan fired a shot, Lin Shuo would know about it.
What Lin Shuo is worried about right now is that there is something wrong in the woods.
People are not here, what if there is a trap
The opponents are the Nie family, so it is a must to make a trap.
If there were hunters from the Cao family by his side, Lin Shuo would naturally not be afraid, but the two hunters beside him, one surnamed Su and the other surnamed Zhang, were not as good at trapping as he was.
Taking them tonight is to surprise the opponent and let them practice their hands by the way.
Lin Shuo had already noticed that Anne was better after the battle in the Outer Xing'an Mountains. In Zhang Jin's eyes, there was no trace of fierceness.
But in the current situation, Lin Shuo had to be cautious when the other party's behavior was unexpected.
The two young hunters around him are unique from each family.
Don't talk about personal relationships, just talk about justice, if one of these two dies, the six families of Liemen will lose one family.
As the leader of the hunting gate, Lin Shuo stood at the edge of the forest in front of him, in a dilemma, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
In the current situation, he became Sima Yi, and was sung by others as an empty city plan.
Just when Lin Shuo was about to retreat, Zhang Jin rushed out suddenly.
Zhang Jin took this action, and the white wolf also ran in.
"Hey!" Anne let out a soft cry when she saw this, but her feet seemed to have taken root, she remained motionless, waiting for Lin Shuo's order.
"Go in!" Just as Lin Shuo finished speaking, he was already in the forest.
…
This forest was much smaller than the one that Lin Shuo and the others passed through just now. As soon as Lin Shuo entered, he quickly found Zhang Jin and his white wolf.
We were able to find it so quickly because the snow stopped and a new moon broke through the clouds, and the light was much better than before. The second reason is that Zhang Jin's commotion is so loud that it's hard to find it.
In front of the white wolf, a horse was startled.
The horse was tied to a tree pole and couldn't run away. There was such a big wolf in front of it that it was so frightened that it stood up frequently and neighed continuously.
The big white wolf stood in front of the horse for a while, then seemed to feel a little innocent, turned around and put his head into Lin Shuo's arms, and rubbed his forehead against Lin Shuo's chest.
Lin Shuo had just arrived at this moment, and he also knew that there was nothing else in the forest except this horse.
He put the hanging heart back into his stomach, smiled helplessly, and stroked the thick fur on the white wolf's neck.
At this time, Zhang Jin took a step forward.
This step made Anne, who arrived later, feel tight.
The horse is startled now, and the startled horse will kick people.
Zhang Jin took this step, and the horse could make the boy fly away with just a flick of its hooves.
The power of a horse cannot be underestimated.
If Lin Shuo suffered like this, Anne would not be too worried, because his muscles are too strong.
After all, there is a gap between Zhang Jin and Lin Shuo, so it may not be all right.
Just when Anne raised her heart to her throat, Zhang Jin stretched out his hand, gently pressed it on the horse's forehead, and began to mutter to himself:
"Where did you get your horse from?"
"Don't be afraid, my white wolf will not hurt you."
"Did they drop you?"
"Don't be sad, look, I have something delicious here."
While talking, Zhang Jin took out a cloth bag from his bosom, grabbed a handful of something from it, and fed it to the horse.
As Zhang Jin's words kept ringing, the horse seemed to be hypnotized, and it stopped making fuss, and quietly ate what Zhang Jin gave it.
Soon, Zhang Jin had his arms around the horse's neck. While chewing, the horse leaned its head closer to Zhang Jin's face.
Just now the swords were on the verge of breaking out, but all of a sudden, Zhang Jin and this horse were as good as buddies.
Anne was stunned, and it took a while to recover. She pointed to Zhang Jin and said to Lin Shuo, "He...he...did he just talk?"
"Yeah." Lin Shuo nodded, "He's talking, you're stuttering."
"No." Anne quickly shook her head, "No, can he talk?"
"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded, "There is no one who can't speak."
"But he didn't before."
"In fact, he will." Lin Shuo looked at Zhang Jin who was making out with the horse, and a trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes, "But we have to separate objects. He can't speak to people, but he has always been talkative to animals since he was a child." tuberculosis."
"What's wrong with this?"
"Ghost knows. Fortunately, he can talk to animals, so the Zhang family's unique skill will not be lost." Lin Shuo sighed, and then glanced at Anne, "The Zhang family can communicate with animals. You don't know, do you?"
Anne shook her head, indicating that she really didn't know.
"What did your mentor teach you?" Lin Shuo shook his head, then seemed to remember something, and said to Zhang Jin, "Zhang Jin, you rushed in just now, it's not right!"
Zhang Jin turned his head, pointed at the horse and blushed: "Horse...horse...horse..."
"Okay." Lin Shuo waved his hand, "I know what you mean, you just came in to save the horse when you found out that the horse was trapped, right
You child, your mind is still too simple, sometimes kindness can harm others.
What if someone uses this horse as bait to lure you in
If so, you don't even know how you died.
So, everything should be decided before action, don't rush to your forehead, just ignore everything.
Don't forget, you are the hunter of the Zhang family, and you will lead the hunting team. If you don't change your temperament, you will harm others and yourself in the future.
Also..."
After Lin Shuo spoke slowly and leisurely for such a long paragraph, Zhang Jin finally choked out the second half of his sentence: "There is something on it!"
The young man has been brewing these four words for a long time, but he spit them out very crisply, and they came out in no time.
But Lin Shuo didn't understand: "What?"
"He said..." Anne understood, "I have something right away."
"What?" Lin Shuo asked.
Zhang Jin groped the horse with both hands, and took out a book.
Lin Shuo was scolding him. This young man was thin-skinned, so he didn't hand the book directly to Lin Shuo, but handed it to Anne beside him.
Anne took the book, looked at the cover, and found that it was too dark to read the words clearly.
So she walked a few steps outside the forest, and finally saw clearly by the moonlight in the sky.
"What kind of book is this?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Zhang Guohua's Notes." Anne finally read it out, and suddenly looked up at Zhang Jin, "Xiao Jin, this is your grandfather's stuff!"
