4474 The Other Side 444

Following his example, Hua Jin took out his drinking piece as well, and slowly pumped water into the vest. As water was drawn in, the actor felt the bulletproof vest getting heavier gradually.

“Wow… It’s so heavy!”

Gong Jie warned, “Be careful when you leave later. Don’t step on the animal traps.” Along the way, he discovered a few animal traps that were used to hunt rabbits and deer. They were probably set up by the locals.

This kind of animal trap was the most old-fashioned kind. Generally, the more advanced traps would capture the prey but not cause too much damage. In this way, most of the preys captured would be alive and the meat would be fresh. However, this kind of old-fashioned animal trap was extremely strong once something was caught in it. It was extremely difficult to break free. The prey would die from excessive blood loss. After that, the blood would coagulate and affect the freshness of the meat.

!!

“Got it.” Hua Jin filled the bulletproof vest with water and screwed the valve shut.

Once they had replenishing their supplies, the two of them resumed their journey. After carefully passing through the forest, they came to a vast, open plain without any cover.

Gong Jie grew increasingly nervous and cautious. His experience was that such a plain would be a shortcut to the war zone. The combat personnel would use transport vehicles to transport the soldiers to the battlefield through such plains. Therefore, there would be mines everywhere.

Once a vehicle passed by and detonated the mine, it would almost immediately flip over from the explosion. The power of the mine was not great, but it was enough to blow up a person.

Gong Jie warned the actor, “When you walk, watch your step. If the soil under your feet seems thinner, it means that there might be landmines buried there. Try to stay as far away as possible.”

Hua Jin became tensed at that. “There’s such a thing?”

“Yeah.” Gong Jie pointed to an overturned layer of soil not far away and walked over. “Do you see this pit?”

Hua Jin walked over and saw Gong Jie pulling out a fuse from the pit.

“It’s a mine that’s been detonated. There’s some blood on the side. Looks like it was stepped on.”

“That’s horrendous.” Hua Jin felt a lingering fear. “I don’t even dare to walk anymore.”

Gong Jie said, “Follow close behind me.”

“Alright…” The actor stuck close behind the other man.

“Must you come so close to me?”

“Didn’t you tell me to stay close?”

“But there’s no need to stick to me, right?”

“Uh…” The actor took half a step back.

“Anyway, just be careful!” Holding the FAMAS rifle, Gong Jie affixed the 4x scope and scanned the area, and saw that there weren’t any crouching figures in sight.

Since they were neither wearing the military wear of the government nor those of the anti-government troops, it would be extremely dangerous, no matter which side they might run into.

They would have been in a better position if the war had not completely erupted. However, once there was a full-blown war, they would be shot dead whichever side they ran into. The troops wouldn’t care if they were a civilian or military personnel.

“Give me a weapon too!”

Gong Jie turned around in surprise. “You know how to use a gun?”

“Previously when I acted in war films, the production team organized systematic drills.”

Gong Jie handed him a Desert Eagle. The actor fumbled, cocked the gun, and pulled the trigger.

Unexpectedly, the trigger was lighter than he had imagined! Gong Jie immediately turned around and aimed his gun at the open space next to them. With a bang, a bullet was fired and instantaneously a landmine was detonated.
