The river lying in front of Lin Shuo and the others was not deep, reaching knees at most, but it was very wide, twenty to thirty meters wide.
The river water is very clear, and the pebbles underneath are clearly visible.
The sky was getting dark now, and the mountain that Lin Shuo pointed out before was just across the river.
Looking left and right, the river turns around the valley from the east and leads to the west, with no end in sight.
Lin Shuo sensed that there was nothing he could do when he encountered this kind of river, so he simply waved his hand and crossed the river first.
The river is not deep and can be waded directly.
After the past, the halfway up the mountain can be used to set up camps, and the river can also be used as a water intake.
Just as humans need water, so do animals.
Such a good river, and inaccessible, there will definitely be animals.
At that time, Zhang Jin's ability will be displayed.
According to the autopsy reports provided by Nepal and India, the time of death of the victim in that village was around one o'clock in the morning.
So the white-headed flying corpse also walked the road that Lin Shuo took just now, then passed through the thorn bushes, and dived into the river to disappear.
It was between five and six in the afternoon, so let Zhang go in and ask the nearby animals, and he would definitely not be able to ask anything.
Because animals are alive, they have their own range of activities and can run around.
And their various activities are actually more regular than humans.
When to come to the river to drink water, the time is basically fixed.
Animals that come to drink water at five or six in the afternoon will not know what happens here in the middle of the night.
I know, it must be an animal that came over in the middle of the night.
Moreover, the behavior of drinking water is a very dangerous behavior for animals. Everyone needs to drink water, so it is very likely to encounter natural enemies near the water source.
Therefore, most of the animals that move in groups will have special guards here.
Let Zhang Jin ask when the time comes, and nine out of ten will know the whereabouts of that thing.
So Lin Shuo set up the camp near here, which means he has let this matter go.
Don't worry about anything else for now, just wait.
Stopping on the mountainside, everyone started to get busy.
Lin Shuo was the most leisurely, because Wei Xingshan and Anne always contributed more to the work of setting up camp.
Wei Xingshan was in charge of the big and small things of the camp, such as setting up tents and making bonfires, and he was familiar with the road.
Anne is in charge of the peripheral defense, and is currently setting up the "painting prison".
Zhang Jin went out to hunt. With him here, the work that originally belonged to Lin Shuo was saved.
Cao Yusheng was observing the terrain here, holding a folding fan in his hand, and fanning it slowly.
After walking down the mountain road this time, Patriarch Cao was getting old after all, and sweated a lot, so he fanned the wind to cool off.
Seeing that Anne had started arranging stones outside, the head of the Cao family was very relieved, and nodded repeatedly: "This is not easy. I even learned the 'painting prison'. The Su family really has successors."
Lin Shuo heard the meaning of Xiao Suo in his words, and asked, "I heard that fourth uncle has a son?"
"Cao Mian." Cao Yusheng put away the fan in his hand and said, "Two years younger than you, he is twenty-four this year, and he found a girlfriend in England. He originally came back to let me meet after Chinese New Year, but suddenly changed his mind. Yes, they said they were going to Italy for a trip.
Hey, this kid is not interested in the matter of Liemen.
From our Cao family to my life, the Liemen business is probably over.
Leader, I'm thinking, after next year's peer alliance ceremony, the Cao family should stop occupying the position of the Six Great Families and stop shitting. "
When Lin Shuo heard these words, he felt really uncomfortable.
Lin Shuo admired and even respected Cao Yusheng even if personal relationships were excluded.
Although the vast majority of Liemen's intelligence had been burned fifteen years ago, the intelligence department of the Cao family is still indispensable.
Because the information itself needs to be constantly updated, the old ones are not afraid of being lost, but what about the new ones in the future
Once the Cao family puts down this burden, who will pick it
Who can reassure the leader Lin Shuo
But the reality is that the Cao family does not have any successors, and Cao Yusheng's physical condition is not optimistic. Lin Shuo didn't know it before, but now he passed out in the morning. This is true.
So Lin Shuo didn't know how to answer Cao Yusheng's words.
"However, don't worry, leader." Cao Yusheng lowered his voice, and said, "As long as I, Cao Yusheng, are alive, there will always be an intelligence agency serving you Lin Shuo. Although the Cao family can't count on it, they can I observed Nianqiu for a while, and this girl is a good material.
Thoughtful, steady, and loyal enough to you.
Slowly, I will hand over the things in my hands to her.
She will be the head of the Su family in the future, and at the same time a good helper of your Lin family. It is very suitable for the Cao family to let her handle this matter. "
"Fourth Uncle." Lin Shuo reminded, "It's useless for you to suppress your throat like this. Her ears can't be hidden."
"I know, just let her hear it." Cao Yusheng unfolded the folding fan he was holding with a "snap", and shook it slowly.
Anne is also back now, with a pretty face just like the clouds in the sky now, it is red and glowing.
The evening glow travels thousands of miles, and it looks like the weather will be fine tomorrow.
Anne seemed to be in a good mood. She sat down in front of Lin Shuo and Cao Yusheng, with countless charms on her brows and eyes, and began to prepare dinner for everyone.
Wei Xingshan had already lit the bonfire. Before going to bed, Anne would leave a hole in the "painting prison", which was equivalent to a flashing invisible door. Wei Xingshan went out along this door to find enough firewood for the bonfire.
Anne set up a pot on the bonfire, filled half a pot of water, poured in a large bag of dehydrated vegetables, and added some salt.
It is a kind of enjoyment to have a sip of steaming vegetable soup after walking down the mountain road one day.
Of course, vegetable soup is far from enough in terms of calories, but Lin Shuo is not in a hurry, because Zhang Jin has been away from the camp for an hour, and he should be back with his prey soon.
In the end, after waiting for a few minutes, Lin Shuo could smell something from a distance. The things that Zhang Jin hunted this time seemed unusual.
I saw Wei Xingshan hurried back to the camp, panting, with a complicated expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Old Lin, if you talk about Zhang Jin, you really didn't love him in vain. You really have the same way as you." Wei Xingshan said, "Go down the mountain and have a look. The things he hunted are barely returned by dragging them on the ground. Okay, but to carry it up the mountain, the two of us are really not strong enough."
When Lin Shuo heard this, he thought badly, and immediately got up and walked down the mountain.
As a result, he was still on the mountain, and he saw a big guy lying down the mountain from a distance.
"Look, it's really the same way as you, right?" Wei Xingshan said, "The things we hunted are too big, dead heavy."
Lin Shuo saw the things below the mountain clearly, covered his forehead with one hand, and said, "It's over, this kid, I can't do without a word."
"What's wrong?" Wei Xingshan asked.
Cao Yusheng, who came up behind him, said, "This thing is called Indian rhinoceros, and there are only about 3,000 of them in existence today. It belongs to the endangered and rare protected animals. Xiao Wei, do you know why there are so few of these things now?"
"Why?" Wei Xingshan asked.
"It is the largest single-horned rhinoceros in the world. The horn on the bridge of its nose is a valuable thing, so poaching is rampant." Cao Yusheng said, "I told others this afternoon that we were not poachers. Well, this time it’s considered solid.”
"Everyone has stolen goods." Lin Shuo sighed.
"Then... what should we do then?" Wei Xingshan was stunned.
Zhang Jin, who was at the bottom of the mountain, was quite excited when he saw the person coming from the middle of the mountain. He was bouncing around and waving at the same time. It seemed that he was asking for credit in front of Lin Shuo.
In front of my uncle, I hunted such a big guy and showed my face!
"Hey, this old Zhang family, at least in terms of hunting skills, can be regarded as successors." Cao Yusheng sighed and asked Lin Shuo, "Boss, how did this matter end?"
"How else can it end?" Lin Shuo rolled his eyes and pointed to the rhinoceros lying at the foot of the mountain. "It's dead, why don't we set up a monument for it? It's better to eat it up and destroy the corpse."
"That makes sense." Cao Yusheng nodded.
"Have you finished eating?" Wei Xingshan asked.
Lin Shuo looked at this rhinoceros, good guy, a grown male rhinoceros weighs more than three tons and nearly four tons.
Lin Shuo wiped his mouth with a helpless expression:
"try your best."
