Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Chapter 1069 You're finished if you don't have a gun!

While Li Long was busy debugging the dryer, Mo Linsheng encountered the biggest crisis of his life!
Although he carefully selected each person to exchange fritillaria for money, and he might not necessarily agree to exchange some people who actively wanted to exchange fritillaria for money, he eventually encountered someone who needed to repay the karmic debt because of the many things he had done in the mountains.

The two men who had been killed by Morinsheng came to exchange for the fritillaria bulbs. When they saw the jeep wasn't there, one of them was unwilling to come. The two men disagreed on their next steps; one wanted to return to the forest and wait two days for Li Long to arrive before exchanging the bulbs.

The other one, however, was unwilling to wait any longer. He thought that if no one was around, he would carry the fritillaria out of the mountain. If the mountain pass was blocked, he would simply climb over the middle of the mountain and forge a path where none existed.

Anyway, he couldn't stay in these damn mountains any longer.

The two men were arguing when they saw someone in the distance near the wooden house, doing something by the table. They were both excited.

No car? No problem! As long as you have someone, you're all set!

However, when the three of them carried the fritillaria bulbs and hurried to the front of the wooden house, they were dumbfounded.

Mo Linsheng was also thinking of exchanging the wolf meat in his pot for some fritillaria bulbs, since he couldn't finish it all by himself anyway.

The two men thought this person must be someone Li Long had left behind to exchange for fritillaria bulbs, but when they looked at each other, they realized they were enemies!

Mo Linsheng was a little flustered, and the other two were also a little flustered.

When Mo Linsheng was digging for fritillaria bulbs in the forest, these two men tried to steal them from him, but Mo Linsheng robbed them back.

So when the two men saw it was Mo Linsheng, they immediately chickened out. After all, even when they teamed up, they couldn't beat each other, and Mo Linsheng had even injured them and stolen their mother-of-pearl and money.

Mo Linsheng's ruthlessness and recklessness left a very deep impression on the two men, so as soon as they saw that it was Mo Linsheng, the two men immediately wanted to leave.

Mo Linsheng was also panicking. He was not the same as before. The injuries on both legs had not yet healed, and he had several wounds on his body. If he were to face the other party now, let alone two people, even one of them could take him down.

Both sides were wary, which actually stabilized the situation, and neither side took any action.

The two people were also quite embarrassed and didn't know how to speak, so they prepared to leave. Mo Linsheng didn't want to stop them, so he pretended to be tidying up the mother-of-pearls while looking at the case.

He breathed a sigh of relief after everyone left; if a fight had broken out, he would have been the one in trouble.

The two men were worried that Mo Linsheng would beat them up again and take the fritillaria away, but they couldn't run fast with the bag of fritillaria on their backs, so they kept looking back as they left.

As they walked away, one of them suddenly said:
"Huh? That guy, he looks like he's having some kind of leg problem."

"Really?" The other person turned his head and looked over, finding Mo Linsheng standing by the table. He shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything."

"It's a bit inconvenient, though. Could it be that this guy got into a fight and got injured, so he came here to recuperate?" the person who had peeked at him earlier speculated.

"Shall we take a look?" If this guy is really injured, then we can still get revenge.

So another person also wanted to take a look.

The two of them ran into the woods, found a good spot to observe, put the fritillaria bulb down, and then started looking towards the cabin.

At this distance, faces are no longer clearly visible, but the general workings of a person can still be observed.

Sure enough, after a while, seeing that Mo Linsheng was having some difficulty moving around, the two of them immediately became excited.

However, someone brought the fritillaria bulb over at that moment, so the two of them waited patiently.

After a while, the man returned carrying the fritillaria bulbs. He didn't exchange them for money, but he traded some fritillaria bulbs for some wolf meat. When he came back, he was still gnawing on the wolf meat, and it looked quite delicious.

"Let's go, let's rob this guy! First, to get revenge, and second, to get some food!" One of them couldn't wait any longer. He wanted to get some food as soon as possible, and second, he had been seriously injured when he fought Mo Linsheng last time, and the injury was in a critical area.

Therefore, the hatred is quite strong.

When the two men returned with the fritillaria bulbs on their backs, Mo Linsheng knew he was in trouble.

He had just realized that the two people might be observing him, and he had tried his best to keep his movements natural.

However, his injuries were still quite severe, and his movements were inevitably distorted, which is why he was observed.

When he saw the two men approaching, Mo Linsheng picked up the shovel Li Long had given him and made it clear:
"I'm Mr. Li's agent here. He'll be here in a bit, so you two better behave yourselves!"

His shout didn't scare the two men; instead, it made them laugh.

Clearly, they saw through Mo Linsheng's facade of strength and relaxed. The two men put down their fritillaria bulbs and flanked him from both sides with shovels used for digging fritillaria bulbs. Mo Linsheng knew he was in for trouble this time, so he remained silent. He thought that even if he was beaten, he would still cut off a piece of their flesh!
This time, however, the two were smarter. They circled around Mo Linsheng, looking for weaknesses and not giving him any chance.

Mo Linsheng was already physically limited, so he could only defend. As a result, two people found an opening. One of them moved to Mo Linsheng's side and behind, and suddenly rushed over and kicked him, knocking him down. Then the two of them attacked him together, punching and kicking him, leaving Mo Linsheng covered in injuries.

When Morin hardened up, he remained silent, occasionally putting up a fight. The two men simply tied him up with their clothes, beat him, and then began searching the area.

All the fritillaria bulbs hidden in the shed were found, along with the several hundred yuan that Mo Linsheng was carrying to exchange for the fritillaria bulbs.

"Hey, we're rich now!" one of them exclaimed excitedly. "These fritillaria bulbs alone are worth at least a few thousand yuan! If we take them all, we won't have to suffer like this anymore!"

"You coward! You're satisfied with this little bit of money?" another sneered at him. "Let me tell you, if it's just the two of us staying here, and someone else comes to deliver fritillaria bulbs, we'll just rob them of theirs. Then we'll haul more fritillaria bulbs out, and that'll be real money!"

"How could we dare? What if that Boss Li comes?"

"If they were coming, they would have come sooner! If they haven't come yet, they definitely aren't coming today!" They piled up all the fritillaria bulbs they had found, then went to scoop out the wolf meat from the pot to eat. One of them looked at Mo Linsheng, who was lying on the ground covered in wounds, and kicked him.

Now, all Mo Linsheng can do is hope that someone else will come, whether it's Polati or someone else who comes to exchange for fritillaria. As long as someone comes, he will have a chance to break free.

However, even after the two men had eaten several pieces of wolf meat and were full, no one came over.

He was a little desperate.

After the two finished eating, one of them was still a little worried and wanted to leave as soon as possible, while the other wanted to rest and said he was very sleepy.

As he lay on the ground, Morinson suddenly felt a slight tremor in the ground. He immediately realized what was happening and felt a surge of joy: Polati was riding over on horseback!
After the two finished eating, they leaned against the wooden house to rest. They were a little slow to react, and by the time they sensed someone coming, Polati was already less than 30 meters away from the wooden house.

The two men immediately got up, glanced at Polati who was riding over, and then ran away into the distance!

Polati, experienced as he was, immediately dismounted and roared as he observed the two men's movements. When they tried to run again, he drew his gun, disengaged the safety, chambered a round, and fired in the direction they were running.
"Bah!"

"If you run again, I'll kill you!"

Polati shouted again, and the two men immediately stopped running.

"Run back yourself!" Polati gave the order again, gun in hand.

Those two people wanted to run away, and they knew that if they split up, at least one of them could escape.

But nobody wants to gamble on being the one who survives.

The two slowly walked back, glanced at each other, and knew they were doomed.

When Polati arrived, he saw Morinson, who was tied up and had been beaten black and blue. He quickly undressed him, helped him up, and asked:

"How are you? Are you alright?"

"It's alright." Mo Linsheng felt that he had only suffered superficial injuries. Although it hurt quite a bit, his internal organs should be fine.

Those wounds have reopened, and I have to apply medicine again. It's such a hassle.

On one occasion, his recovery from his injury was delayed by a few days.

Mo Linsheng staggered to the spring to wash the blood off his body, then found the medicine left by Li Long, applied it to his body, and finally leaned against the table to rest.

The two men returned, and Polati, with a gun in one hand and a riding crop in the other, lashed out at them without warning.
"You bastards dare to hurt people here? Let me tell you, this is my territory, Polati! Li Long isn't here, so this place has to listen to me!"

"You dare to hit someone here! And tie them up? If I hadn't come, were you planning to kill them? Damn it, you two deserve to be beaten to death!"

Mo Linsheng thought it was very likely. He had beaten these two people once before, and they were habitual thieves. Now that he had found so much here, they probably wouldn't leave him alive.

Even if I survived, if no one came in the afternoon, and I was still tied up, I would be bitten by wolves that came attracted by the smell of blood, and I would be dead.

Polati beat the two men until they screamed and howled, but they dared not run. The two men were terrified by the gunfire and dared not fight back.

Polati got tired of fighting, then took a rope from the horse, tied the two men's hands together, and then asked Morinson:

"What are you going to do? Stay here or come back to the forestry team with me? Given your current condition, staying might cause you trouble."

Mo Linsheng thought for a moment, then shook his head. Leaving was definitely out of the question. Even if he got on Polati's horse, the swaying and rocking would likely cause his wounds to bleed again. And there were so many fritillaria bulbs; he couldn't just leave them here.

Seeing this, Pollati shook his head and said:

“In that case… alright then, I’ll make the decision for Li Long this time.”

He walked to the door of the small cabin with his gun, smashed the lock a few times with the butt of his rifle, pushed open the door, and said to Morinson:

"I'll help you move these fritillaria bulbs inside, and then I'll put the lock back on. You can rest here now. Don't make a sound or open the door if anyone comes. Even if wolves come at night, they won't be able to get in, so it's safer."

Morinson was surprised that Polati would do this for him, and was quite grateful, sincerely saying:
"thank you!"

"Alright, alright, you're helping Li Long by collecting fritillaria here. Li Long is my friend, so helping you is helping him too." Polati waved his hand. "Wait a minute, let me move these fritillaria inside first."

The two men who assaulted the victim each had more than ten kilograms of fritillaria bulbs, and with what Mo Linsheng had in exchange, they had nearly two hundred kilograms in total. Although some of them were used for work and some for other purposes, it was still a considerable income.

Polati himself had two bags on his horse. He put the fritillaria bulbs into the house, and also brought in the roll of bedding from the shed. Then he said to Morinson:
“I’ll leave my fritillaria here. When Li Long comes over tomorrow, just tell him it’s mine. Never mind, I’ll come over again tomorrow and just ask him for the money then.”

After Morinson brought in the cooked food he still had and the wolf meat in the pot, Pollati called him out again and demonstrated how to simply restore the door lock so that it would at least look locked from a distance.

“You can just pull it when you come out. When you go in, position the door handle like this and gently pull the door shut, and it will be the same as now,” Polati said as he taught. “Now that you’re injured, even a young man can knock you over, so be careful.”

After Mo Linsheng entered the house, he locked the door again, then mounted his horse, pulled the rope, and dragged the two men back to the forestry team.

Mo Linsheng was relieved. He endured the pain, slowly spread out the bedding, and lay down.

The movement strained his injury, causing his face to contort slightly. Although it hurt a lot, at least he felt at ease.

I don't know when, but I heard footsteps outside. They were a little light and far away, but I could still hear them.

Mo Linsheng gripped the shovel beside the bedding, remaining motionless.

The footsteps paused nearby for a moment, then eventually moved on.

As darkness fell, Mo Linsheng actually felt safer. At least after dark, practically no one came here anymore.

Only then did he dare to get up and move around a little.

Although the wound still hurts after the medication was applied, it has stopped bleeding. Now I just hope that similar situations won't happen again during my recovery.

He felt a little hungry, but he couldn't go out to light a fire and cook something hot.

Fortunately, the food on the shelf was still cooked, and even if it cooled down a bit, it would at least fill my stomach.

He took a piece of naan bread and a piece of wolf meat and started eating.

While eating, I was thinking about other things when I choked and started hiccuping uncontrollably.

Mo Linsheng patted his chest hard, which aggravated his wound and caused him some pain.

It didn't work, the hiccups didn't stop.

Mo Linsheng looked outside.

It was already dark; looking through the paper window, it was pitch black outside.

At this time, the moon didn't seem to have risen yet, and there was no daylight.

He stood up, walked to the door, and hesitated whether to go out and get some water.

It should only be about 20 meters from here to the spring. Even if I'm injured, the round trip shouldn't take more than two minutes.

do you want to go?

Just then, he felt a bloating and pain in his bladder and needed to urinate again.

I can't possibly pee in this room, can I?

It's dark, so it should be fine to go out.

Thinking this, Mo Linsheng tightened his grip on the shovel and slowly opened the door.

The fresh, slightly cool air from outside felt wonderful.

The windows of the wooden house were sealed with paper, and the door was closed, so it felt rather stuffy.

After adjusting for a while, Mo Linsheng was able to see the outside world more clearly.

The case, the stove, and you can faintly sense that the fire under the stove hasn't completely gone out.

There were sounds of insects chirping near the spring, but strangely, there were no frogs or toads. Back in my hometown, a spring like this would usually have frogs.

Mo Linsheng didn't know why he suddenly thought of this. He looked around again and didn't find any living creatures. Then, holding a shovel in one hand and an enamel basin in the other, he slowly walked towards the spring.

Although he found no danger, he tried to walk slowly and make as little noise as possible.

As he walked, Mo Linsheng observed and listened intently, his movements extremely cautious. This was the weakest he had been since entering the mountains; he couldn't withstand even the slightest attack.

When he reached the spring, Morinson breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, he suddenly realized that the hiccups had stopped!

He first went to the side, put water in the grass, then went to the spring, squatted down to wash his hands, scooped up some water and drank a few mouthfuls, then scooped up a basinful, preparing to carry it back to the house.

"Ow—!"

The sudden howling of wolves near the woods startled Mo Linsheng. Without thinking, he grabbed the basin and ran into the house, ignoring his injuries.

If the wolves really catch up with me, I'll only be dead!
He ran back to the cabin, pushed the door open, and crawled inside. He slammed the door shut behind him with a loud bang, and only then did he feel safe against the door.

The enamel basin was only half full of water, but he dared not go out again.

The wolf's howl sounded very close, and then another wolf howl came from outside, sounding even closer.

It seemed to be less than 100 meters away from the wooden house, and could attack at any moment!

After putting down the enamel basin, Mo Linsheng first locked the door, then used an iron shovel to prop it up, only then feeling relieved.

The wound started hurting again. I touched it and it felt sticky; blood was seeping out.

Damn it, my wound is being tortured three times a day, who can stand that?
Lying on the bed, Mo Linsheng no longer wanted to move.

Fortunately, this is much more comfortable than living in the shed; at least I no longer have to worry about wolves coming.

Exhausted, frightened, and injured, Mo Linsheng finally couldn't take it anymore and drifted off to sleep.

When he woke up, it was already broad daylight outside.

Morinson was somewhat disappointed that he didn't hear the sound of a jeep.

Is Boss Li not coming today? How am I going to get through this day?
He still felt pain all over his body, but it was much better than yesterday.

I slowly got up, trying not to aggravate the wound. After getting up, I stretched slowly and it seemed to be much better.

He didn't have a fever, but Mo Linsheng felt he still had to take his medicine. His body was in such a weak state, he had to take good care of himself.

He hesitated for a moment, sensing that the air in the room seemed a bit stuffy, but ultimately opened the door.

With my health improved and this wooden house providing some protection, I'm unlikely to run into someone like yesterday again, right?

Besides, even if I did run into them, as long as it wasn't just two or three, I should still have a fighting chance, right?

As long as the other party isn't reckless, I have a chance.

We can't stay cooped up here forever.

As soon as the door opened, fresh air came in, and Mo Linsheng felt a surge of relief in his lungs. He felt he had done the right thing.

Just as I was reminiscing, I saw two people emerge from the woods in the distance and walk towards us!
He cursed his bad luck; it was too late to close the door now!
