Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368 – Hunting Dogs
The motorcade passed through the forest. The roar of the engine broke the peace in the mountains and startled the birds along the way.
The motorcade clearly knew that it would be difficult for them to be completely stealthy with so many people working together, so they did not try to cover up their movements.
The motorcade’s drivers were not as good as Zhang Heng. However, with the superior performance of the off-road vehicle and a team of engineers, they managed to cut down trees and pave the way to the place where Zhang Heng’s polo had arrived.
The three people in the lead SUV got off and looked at the river in front of them. The man in sunglasses said, “I don’t think his polo can drive through it. This is no longer a problem of driving skills.”
“Then where is his car?”A tanned man asked after looking around.
“He might have been washed down.”Another man pointed in the direction of the waterfall.
“Send someone down to take a look,”the man wearing sunglasses said. “I have a feeling that he should be nearby.”
Fifteen minutes later, the divers who had descended to the waterfall returned and reported that they had indeed seen the wreckage of the car underwater. Hence, the members of the convoy also got out of the car and formed a small team of six, they began to carefully search for traces of human activity in the vicinity.
This time, the three major guilds had made thorough preparations. There were many experts in the convoy who were good at tracking footprints, and they even brought hunting dogs with them.
The dog trainer gave the hunting dogs the items that Zhang Heng had found from the school to sniff out before releasing the hunting dogs. The group soon discovered the cave on the cliff wall.
The man in sunglasses led the two groups into the cave that was slightly lower.

They had been very careful along the way, and it was only after the sniper had aimed at the cave’s entrance that someone poked their head in. In the end, they only saw an old man inside.
The man in sunglasses looked around. After confirming that there was no one else in the cave, he put away the rifle in his hand and swaggered in. At the same time, he said to the old man who was mending his clothes, “Old Man, have you seen a man who is about my height? Well, he doesn’t have any expression on his face. He looks like someone who is not to be trifled with.”
The old man raised his head. His expression was a little confused and a little scared, but he still shook his head.
The man in sunglasses burst out laughing. He walked to the stone table in the middle of the cave and picked up the bottle of multi-vitamin pills, “Don’t tell me you bought this thing online. Even the postal service can’t get in this damn place.”
The two teams that came in with him also searched the cave. Soon, they found more things from the outside, including, but not limited to, a bag of beef jerky and amoxicillin pills, there was also a blanket.
However, one of them returned to the man wearing sunglasses. “I didn’t find any toiletries. It seems that he doesn’t live here.”
The man wearing sunglasses did not say anything when he heard that. He just walked to the old man, squatted down, and smiled, “Father, don’t be afraid. We are not bad people. On the contrary, the person who gave you the thing is the real bad guy. He killed a lot of people and his hands were covered in blood. He ran all the way here to escape the punishment of the law. For the safety of you and your family, we hope that you can cooperate with us and bring this dangerous thug to justice as soon as possible.”

However, the old man still shook his head and pointed at his own mouth.
“Are You Mute?”The man in sunglasses shifted his gaze to the old man’s injured leg. “Or are you under his care and don’t want to Betray Your Savior?”
The man in sunglasses knocked on the wooden board that the old man was facing as he spoke, “How long has it been? Were you injured when you met him?”? “Don’t be fooled by him. Based on our understanding of him, he’s very cunning. Perhaps he’s the one who did this to your leg. Ha, I know what you’re thinking, but believe me, if he wanted to scheme against someone, most ordinary people would die without knowing how he did it.”.
“Don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence? Your leg was injured, and he just happened to appear and save you. So you brought him to your residence, but you didn’t know that you were inviting a wolf into the house.”
The old man kept shaking his head.
The man wearing sunglasses finally lost his patience, but at this moment, another person walked into the cave. “The Hound found another cave. That should be his residence. Do you want to go take a look?”
“Of course.”The man wearing sunglasses stood up and looked away from the old man. “There’s nothing to investigate in this place. Leave a team here to prevent him from sneaking back. The rest of you, follow me.”
The group followed the cliff wall and soon arrived at another cave. This time, the man in sunglasses finally revealed a look of surprise. In fact, he wasn’t the only one.., the other members of the team behind him were also somewhat dumbstruck when they saw the scene in the cave.
“Is he… taking apart his own car?”The man with tanned skin asked in surprise.
“Why did he move the engine and fuel tank here?”? “Yes, even the back seat was taken down to make a bed, and the reading lamp was also used for lighting. He really didn’t let go of any parts that could be used,”another person added.
Other than that, they also found some sharpened branches under a stone wall. It seemed that someone planned to make them into arrows, but they didn’t have time to finish them. One set of clothes, one set of toiletries.., there was half a bottle of mineral water that hadn’t been finished. Other than that, there was nothing else in the cave. It was unbelievably clean.
“He already knows that we’re here,”said the man in sunglasses. He picked up the bottle of mineral water and sniffed it, but found that it actually smelled of peach.
“That’s not surprising. After all, we made quite a commotion when we came. But if that’s the case, is he planning to hide deeper in the mountain and avoid me?”
“It’s fine. As long as he appears in my sight once, he won’t be able to escape again,”the man in sunglasses said confidently.
However, after he finished speaking, he looked at the engine and fuel tank in the cave. He was a little confused. If Zhang Heng was only here to light up the cave, why would he need to go through so much trouble to remove so many things from the car, would he have to go through so much trouble to bring them back?
However, the search had already begun, so there was no time for him to think about such a problem. The man in sunglasses asked someone to bring the hounds in and sniffed the cave’s scent, especially the scent left behind by the clothes, the six hounds soon started Barking and rushed out of the cave one by one.
