Battlefield Contractor
Chapter 5440: Jungle hunt
In northern Cameroon, the forest is lush, the grass is waist-long, and it is difficult to walk. Lin Rui and others could not find the local guide.
Because the locals are afraid of encountering terrorists, especially with a group of foreigners, if they are intercepted by the terrorists of the Holy Land organization, the consequences will be too serious.
A group of them moved farther and farther in the forest. Sweaty clothes clinging to the body makes people very uncomfortable; the flies in the dense forest are swarms, making them too disturbed and difficult to sleep.
"Why don't we follow the coordinate points on the GPS and directly find the locations marked by them.
And want to go around in this woods? Sergey couldn't help asking.
"Brain is a good thing, good at using it." The actuary walked up Kishi from behind and patted him on the shoulder.
"What do you mean?" Sergey was inexplicable.
"That coordinate location is likely to be the terrorist camp, and it is likely to be their base camp. We did not wait for us to find them before we touched in like this, they might have found us first.
We have to search the periphery carefully. If Nightingale and others have been there a week ago, they will definitely leave a corresponding trace.
For example, cutting trails left by cutting vines with knives, footprints or discarded items, or even excrement that has not been buried.
These are good goals for us to track them.
Once we find the traces left by them, we can follow their trajectory. This increases the possibility of us discovering them. "The actuary explained Kishi.
"It's disgusting. You mean we looked around and found a pile of shit?" Sergey shook his head. "Boss, we don't really want to do this, do we?"
"The actuary is right. We'd better do this. Tracking prey through feces and footprints is the most basic tracking method.
The instructor who taught me tracking in the field taught me a lot. Including the excrement of various animals, all need to be able to be distinguished.
But rest assured, Nightingale and his intelligence team are quite professional. It can be seen that they are very careful to hide the traces, it is difficult to leave such a big flaw. "Lin Rui smiled.
"It's been a whole day and we haven't found anything. Could they not enter the jungle at all? Or they deliberately left no clues." Butler asked.
"I think it should be the latter. Nightingale and the others know very well who they are facing. These terrorists set up camps deep in the jungle because they are all jungle survival masters and combat experts.
And there will be activities around from time to time, so Nightingale must be careful to hide her whereabouts. So as not to be discovered by these people, I went all the way to find them. "Lin Rui replied.
"Ah, **** it!" Kuaima shouted from the side.
"What's the matter?" Lin Rui turned around immediately.
"It's nothing serious. I didn't notice that this plant is thorny. It was accidentally stabbed." Kuaima looked at his stabbed arm.
"What kind of thorns is this? The spikes are really sharp." Kuaoma couldn't help frowning while looking at the spiked plants next to him.
"It's not right to wait." Lin Rui suddenly called him, then looked up at the surroundings. "This is something wrong."
"What?" Kuaima asked, "What do you mean by saying something is wrong? This plant is not poisonous, right?"
"Even if the plant is poisonous, it will only grow on the sap of the tree, not on the spikes." Lin Rui shook his head. "I mean this plant grows in the wrong place.
I have seen this kind of plant. Usually this kind of plant only grows near the water and likes sunlight.
The environment here is obviously different from the characteristics of plant growth. And have you noticed that there are no other similar thorns around. "
Kuaima looked around, "Really not. If there is, I will be more careful so that I won't get stabbed."
Lin Rui walked over immediately and carefully observed the plant.
This plant does not have many leaves, all are long spikes, and the spikes on these plants are also emerald green, it is no wonder that Kuai Ma was stabbed just now.
"Yes. I don't know what the scientific name of this plant is? But these plants really should grow by the water, not in the dense jungle.
Firstly, it is far away from the water source. Secondly, the sunshine in the jungle is too much shaded. This kind of plant is originally a kind of plant that likes the sun. "The actuary explained Kishi.
"As long as there are unusual traces, it is possible to find something." Lin Rui lowered his head and slowly observed the plant, then stretched out his hand and carefully pulled the plant.
As a result, the group of spiked plants moved visibly.
"No, these things don't have roots. Obviously someone pulled them over and put them here deliberately. It may be used as some kind of mark and code." Lin Rui lifted the plant with his hand, and it turned out that the root system below the plant did not grow in the soil. .
He just mentioned it lightly and picked up the plant.
Although it was full of spiked branches and still very resilient, it was obvious that this plant was uprooted and thrown here again.
Lin Rui checked carefully and suddenly smiled. "I found them."
"What, what did you find?" Sergey asked immediately.
"Look at the vine next to it. Can you see anything?" Lin Rui asked.
Sergey frowned, "I don't see what this is? But it seems that there is an oblique incision underneath. It seems to be cut like this by some sharp tool."
"You finally got one thing right. In the rain forest, there is a kind of vine commonly known as water vine, which stores a lot of water during the rainy season.
When you are thirsty in the rainforest, you can cut off the ends of the water cane and drink the water from the water cane. However, this water cane cannot be directly touched in the mouth.
This is because the water cane has a slight toxin, and direct contact with the water cane will cause red, swollen and numb lips.
Judging from the felling of this water vine, someone has taken water here.
And in order to hide the traces, a thorn plant was deliberately pulled out to block it here, so that others could not approach it.
One is to prevent others from discovering this water cane, and the other is to leave a mark for yourself. When there is a shortage of water, you can also come here to fetch water. "Lin Rui said slowly.
"Then how do you know that this water cane is not the extremists in the jungle?" Sergey said unconvinced.
"First of all, those extremists use the jungle as their home. They are familiar with the environment here. They know where there is a clean water source. They don't need to use this method." Lin Rui shook his head, "And if it were them, they wouldn't Need to hide.
Unless it is Nightingale and his team, they have entered the jungle not long ago and are not familiar with the conditions inside the jungle, and they don't know where there is a source of water. That's why they use this method, and they are afraid of being discovered by extremists, leading to exposure.
So after they cut down the water vines, they took advantage of the situation and pulled out a thorn-like plant in other places to block it here. "Lin Rui smiled.
