At the beginning, the bamboo shoots were taken away by the mythical beast, and the goddess came to t

For this kind of thing, wasting a little more time may mean that one more life will be lost in the hands of poachers.

Zhang Cheng was obviously very aware of this situation. He didn't even bother to eat. He simply brought some fast food and then led the team to set off.

Not only the white wolf and the cub, but also the big black one also followed.

Soon the car arrived at the bottom of the mountain.

Under the leadership of Bai Lang, everyone moved up the mountain extremely quickly.

Along the way, Lu Chen paid attention to the surrounding environment and wrote down the specific route in his mind.

Then, he saw the drinking stream from the white wolf's mouth.

There are still many traces of animals on the muddy soil beside the stream.

Lu Chen also saw the huge tree in its mouth.

It was a huge magnolia tree standing beside the stream.

It’s the magnolia flowering season.

Pink and white flowers bloom grandly and cover the branches.

Just one glance will make you feel the breath of spring.

Under the trees, the grass is delicious and the fallen flowers are colorful.

Perfect for picnics and naps.

Lu Chen knew about this magnolia tree.

When he was a child, his grandfather once told him that this tree was at least more than 1200 years old.

Going further, we reached a hillside.

Seeing the gnawed green grass and the complex and diverse distribution of cave entrances on the hillside, Lu Chen guessed that this must be what Bai Lang called the rabbit slope.

"Ouch-"

【Rabbit! The nest is better than the rabbit! 】

The little wolf cub held in the mouth of the white wolf once again became a conspicuous bag.

The short limbs and short legs kept tossing in mid-air.

After walking for about ten minutes, the white wolf at the front of the team stopped.

Lu Chen walked forward and saw messy footprints in the grass and a discarded bone.

After picking up the bones and distinguishing them carefully, Lu Chen felt first sad and then angry.

"This is the hind leg of a sika deer. Look here, there are gnawing teeth marks."

Zhang Cheng on the side looked over and recognized the ownership of this bone at a glance.

What made Lu Chen angry was that he recognized...

The teeth marks on the bones do not belong to any wild beast that exists in nature.

It is another kind of extremely terrifying devil that does not survive by killing but takes pleasure in killing.

"These are human teeth marks."

"Those poachers are probably nearby."

Zhang Cheng, who also saw the problem, sighed, his voice low and sad.

Yes.

The teeth marks on the bones were human.

There are obvious signs of roasting on this bone.

Lu Chen's heart was filled with emotions, and he secretly clenched his free left hand.

"Captain Zhang, are there many cases like this?"

"what you mean?"

"Whether you're talking about the presence of poachers or the killing of wildlife."

"My answer is always the same."

"A lot, a lot."

“Sika deer are poached for their antlers and fur, and the meat is generally of no use.”

“So there’s often this kind of thing that’s sorted out on the spot.”

"Some of them will be discarded directly."

"Human greed is the original sin."

"Xiao Lu, there is something else I want to tell you."

Zhang Cheng's eyes fell on the gun carried by Lu Chen.

"The work of the rangers is very hard, and the enemies they face are even more vicious."

“Do you know why we can’t hire anyone?”

"Mainly for two reasons."

"First, it's too hard. I'm exposed to wind and sun every day. I'm far more familiar with the forest than my family."

"The second reason is because of the danger."

"Wear a gun because you want to protect yourself."

"If you want to quit after this operation is over, I will help you tell Deputy Director Chen."

Lu Chen's eyes followed Zhang Cheng's and fell on the gun he had prepared.

"The purpose of taking a gun is not to take a gun, and the purpose of fighting is not to fight."

He smiled and saluted Zhang Cheng, "This is what a veteran said to me when I was serving on the border."

"Although I have retired now, I still want to carry this gun for a while."

Because he raised his hand in salute, the sleeve of Zhang Cheng's right hand naturally slipped down to his elbow.

Showing the scar on his forearm.

After Zhang Cheng's eyes lingered on the scars for a moment, to Lu Chen's surprise, he also raised his wrist and returned the military salute.

"Let's get to know each other again. I am a former scout of the [-]rd Brigade, Charter."

"Captain Zhang, I'm from the confidentiality department."

Lu Chen smiled heartily, his handsome face dazzling in the bright sunshine.

"Good job!"

Zhang Cheng slapped Lu Chen on the shoulder.

"Ouch-"

[I smell it, it’s right in front. 】

As soon as the white wolf finished barking, he was slapped on the forehead.

It's big black.

"Wang~"

The muscular German Shepherd deliberately lowered his voice, and Maomao's face was no longer as funny as when he and Lu Chen were playing around, but instead had a serious look on his face.

[You yelled so loudly, are you afraid that those guys won’t know you took it, right? ! 】

White Wolf: "..."

The sika deer's leg bone was buried carefully by Lu Chen.

Guided by the sense of smell of the two canine creatures, everyone quickly discovered the traces of those guys.

A few people were probably doing repairs, and there were a few ordinary fertilizer bags next to them.

The bright red color can be seen on the bag.

"Brother Zhang, the delivery was pretty good this time. How about we withdraw?"

"Why retreat? I have to find the wolf!"

The man called Brother Zhang is tall and thick.

His left hand was wrapped in a bandage, and he spat hard on the ground as he spoke.

"But we don't have much food to bring, and I'm still a little upset."

Brother Zhang kicked him directly.

"Are you worried about food in the mountains?!"

"I have medicine in my bag, take it yourself!"

"Yes, it turns out that I am a kid who grew up in the city, but I still have to worry about food in the mountains."

The people next to me also started laughing.

"Okay, please keep your voices down."

Brother Zhang stopped him.

"My eyelids have been twitching today, something may have happened."

"All of you, be alert to me."

Lu Chen took a look and saw that there were five people in total, and they were all men.

Except for the leader, Brother Zhang, who looked about forty, the others were all young people in their twenties and thirties.

People are easier to deal with. The key is that there are others besides people.

There were two huge wolf dogs lying next to Brother Zhang, their ears pricked up, obviously always alert to the movements around them.

(The next battle chapter may be a bit awkward. I tried my best, but I’m really not good at it. Sorry)
