Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!

Chapter 1062: Untitled

There wasn’t a problem if it was plainly walking for 15 days. But, this area was filled with poisonous snakes and terrestrial leeches. Not only that, but you might also meet people who were exchanging drugs for money! Principal Chen said that exchanges of firearms always happened in this area. Sometimes, border guards might appear here too.

She hadn’t met any transactions or border guards but she met many poisonous snakes and terrestrial leeches!

Leeches were especially common during the monsoon season. She covered her body tightly but she was still bitten twice on her neck. By the time she felt the pain, the leeches had already finished sucking her blood. When she flicked them off, the black and slippery terrestrial leeches were at least two times bigger than normal water leeches. Their bodies were round from sucking her blood.

She used her military dagger to slit the terrestrial leeches. She was still able to see the two parts of the bodies twisting around as the blood got washed away by rainwater.

After taking care of the terrestrial leeches, there were still poisonous snakes. It was easy to evade these kinds of snakes but once you meet them, you would naturally jump in fright. As she stared at the python that entangled itself around the old vines, Ye Jian still had to take note of her surroundings. After the rain stopped, the python left the old vines and slid away.

In the rainforest, humans could become python’s food.

The rain continued falling. After keeping her tarpaulin, Ye Jian wiped her traces away and hurried on her journey with her compass.

At 4 pm, the barking of dogs was heard not far away. Ye Jian climbed up a tree with her hands without any hesitation. She climbed all the way up and breathed softly to prevent the dog from finding her.

Dogs had an extremely sensitive sense of smell. When Ye Jian heard the barks coming nearer, her heart skipped a beat. She wasn’t afraid of police sniffer dogs. She was afraid that she would meet drug dealers who brought dogs along to hide from the border guards.

She didn’t remain on one tree. Ye Jian carefully maintained her balance as she stepped on the tree branches. Then, she slowly moved forward and jumped onto the tree in front of her. Since she was above, even if the dog was able to sense her smell, she had time to escape.

Very soon, a group of people wearing camouflage uniforms entered her vision. The lights were too dim and it was raining so the mist in the rainforest was thick. Thus, Ye Jian was unable to predict if the people wearing the camouflage uniforms were border guards or other people.

“Leader Liu, the smell has disappeared,” someone said in a low voice as he took out a piece of cloth to let the sniffer dog smell. After some time, the man who spoke said, “This isn’t right. The smell isn’t right.

That wasn’t right, the person they were chasing wasn’t the same.

“Wrong target.”

“Go towards the south. This is the north.”

Ye Jian hid behind the trees in the rainforest. She only managed to listen to them speaking for a short moment before the sniffer dog barked again and went towards the north.

Dodging this kind of specially trained dog was a skill Special Forces soldiers needed to have. Ye Jian didn’t make any movements as she hid on the tree for at least an hour. She waited until she couldn’t hear the dog’s barking anymore before she switched on her weak flashlight and opened her map.

She needed to know her current location. Just now, based on what she heard from the border guards, they should be chasing a target. Her presence caused the sniffer dog to lose its focus and follow the wrong target.

After seeing her location, Ye Jian put the map back into the waterproof pouch. She bit the shiny military dagger and jumped down from the tree quickly.

At 5 pm, the rainforest had already started to turn dark. There wasn’t even a glimpse of light. Ye Jian used her luminous compass to walk in the right direction. She still needed to walk for four hours.
