I was reborn and returned to the age of three and a half. Did my mother also have a heart transplant

They don't even know there are wolves living in the cafeteria now!

That night.

There was no wind, no rain, no moon, only a few distant stars in the sky emitting a faint starlight.

In the night, the rustling sound of footsteps could be heard rhythmically on the small road leading from outside the mountain to Peijia Village.

The movements were quiet but very regular, a bit like a troop marching at night.

But if you look closely, you will find that the other party does not look like a soldier at all.

In this pitch-black night with only a few stars in the sky, they wrapped themselves up with only a pair of eyes showing.

There were more than twenty people, each dressed in black, with a hood on their head and boots on their feet, and they all carried large bags and weapons on their backs.

This doesn't look like a good thing.

Behind them, in a military Jeep dozens of kilometers away, a red dot like a tracker kept flashing on a screen inside an old-fashioned portable box.

"How brave they are! They are planning to escape back to the mountains again."

"Hmph! That's a nice thought. We finally caught them coming out of the mountain. How can we let them run back into the mountain now? Let our people chase them and surround them. We must not let any of them escape and catch them all in one fell swoop!"

"The order has already been issued. The vanguard is already in hot pursuit, but this area is surrounded by mountains, and our tracker has not been discovered yet, so we can still accurately know the direction of their activities. Once the tracker is discovered, or our people fail to intercept them before they enter the mountain, it will be hard to say whether there will be a signal once they enter Shennong Mountain. This mountain has many strange places since ancient times. No one has really been able to set foot in the center for decades. Let alone finding these twenty people, even if there are 20,000 people who escaped in and hid deep, they still can't be found."

"So we can't give them the chance to escape into the mountains again."

The Jeep served as a temporary combat command center. The two leaders in the car were closely watching the moving speed of the red dot on the screen.

"Are there any villages along the way?"

"There is only one village, called Peijia Village. There are about 150 households in the village. It is the most remote village in the entire Luoxia Commune, located at the foot of the mountain. The best route for these desperate criminals to enter the mountain should be behind Peijia Village."

"Because from the map, this forest is connected to several mountains on the Qinhou Mountain side. I suspect that these bandits have found some caves or shortcuts deep in Shennong Mountain that can connect to other mountains. Otherwise, they would not have been able to escape from the back of the mountain. And they may have mastered more than one such route."

"You're right. I thought so too. They were chased and blocked by us for several days. After several desperate resistances, they finally chose to flee to the mountains again today. It shows that they do have their last chance of survival hidden in the mountains."

"We must arrest them this time. The gold mine is not as important as the origins of this group of people. We absolutely need to find out who is behind them. This group of desperate criminals does not have the brains to explore for gold mines, nor do they have the knowledge of safe mining."

When the two talked about this, they fell silent, and their expressions were somewhat solemn.

The orders given to them by their superiors were very firm, and the pressure on them was very great.

"Wait, I remember there was a soldier under your command who retired and his hometown is here?"

Everyone asked this question.

The one being asked was even more silent. He paused for 3 seconds before sighing, "There is one, it's a pity for that kid."

"What's your name? Where is he now?"

"His name is Pei Guochao. He has been transferred to the provincial armed forces department! He is a natural soldier, but it's a pity for this kid. That's it. Everyone has their own choices. The country can't just ask people to contribute and ignore their own needs in life."

"Stop talking nonsense, can you speak human language? If he is such a good material, why didn't you keep him in the team and let him transfer to another job?"

"There were major flaws in the Red Star mission, and all the people who went on the mission together were betrayed. Only this guy was rescued by the daughter of Chen De from the 24th Army by accident, and he also had an affair with Chen De's daughter. The other party's family didn't agree to let him do such dangerous work anymore, and they were afraid that their only daughter would become a widow, so they secretly let him retire from the army while he was injured."

"Although I feel sorry for his talent, everyone has their own aspirations. This incident was indeed a big blow to him. Those who died were all his old partners for many years. After the psychological test, the military medical department also said that he did not pass the psychological test and was indeed not suitable to stay on the front line. In this case, he himself proposed to retire and go home. It is not appropriate for me to be the villain and hold him back."

When the other party heard this, he also fell silent.

"Yeah, this is also - let's not talk about this, what about Pei Guochao, wait, his last name is Pei, what about Peijia Village? It can't be such a coincidence that it is his hometown, right?"

"It really is his hometown. Damn!"

At this time, Pei Guochao's old leader also reacted and couldn't help but swear.

He immediately picked up the radio and said, "Tell those little bastards below that they must stop the people outside Peijia Village and not let them break into the village. It's time to test them."

After a while, a reply came from the intercom: "Received, received! Over!"

The order was passed one by one until it reached the team closest to the group of desperate bandits.

"The commander ordered us to speed up the pursuit and not allow the criminals to enter the village. We must intercept them outside the village."

"Yes!"

At this time, they were at least seven to eight kilometers away from the group of bandits in front, judging from the signals they received. It was actually very difficult to encircle and block them on this dark and complicated mountain road.

At this time, the leading bandit led his men into the woods. If Mo Yan, Lao Zhao and the others were there, they would be able to see that this group of guys took the shortcut through the woods.

It is faster than taking the mountain road, but entering the forest at night carries the risk of getting lost and being attacked by animals, and this group of people don't seem to be worried about this at all.

They seemed to be able to identify the route very accurately, and as soon as they entered the forest, they sprayed a spray on their bodies, which seemed to be a mist to prevent animals from approaching, or to conceal and disguise their own scent.

"Damn! They changed their route! Quickly notify the large group ahead!"

The military also discovered it at the first moment.

But as I said just now, even with the closest distance they were still more than seven kilometers away, it would be even more difficult for them to deal with the bandits if they changed their route.

"Commander, according to the map, the enemy has entered the forest. They are planning to take a shortcut. Could they have discovered us?"

"Probably not. Maybe they just want to save time and get back into the mountains before daybreak."

As a result, just as these words fell, the red flashing signal light on the screen suddenly went out and disappeared.
