Chapter 173: The Art of Hiding
Pigs have very poor eyesight.
But even so, Li Qing could clearly see the dazzling morning light coming in from the window.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the sunlight shines through the large windows, illuminating the interior of the pig farm.
This was a bad time. In this situation, Li Qing obviously had no way of cutting off the power and turning off the lights.
So, how do you "blind" the enemy?
Just like a failed writer who is seriously stuck in writing but has to keep updating, Li Qing has to face the heavy pressure brought by the dangerous situation while trying his best to think about the next countermeasures.
At this time, Thomas was quickly moving his position.
"what to do…"
The enemy's footsteps were getting closer and closer, just a little bit away from reaching the aisle where he was.
Li Qing's huge body will soon be presented to the enemy without reservation, and what he will face next will be an attack that cannot be avoided at all.
At the same time, there was a group of pigs grunting nearby.
These stupid big guys had just been frightened by the explosion, but now they foolishly forgot about the danger and continued to live their carefree lives.
These calls and the smell on their bodies all became obstacles that interfered with Li Qing's thinking.
And he couldn't control it.
This pig body seems to have the instinct to communicate with its own kind.
Different smells will be automatically converted into information and transmitted to the brain, allowing Li Qing to know which circle of sows are courting, and which circle of boars are in heat...
“Damn it!”
Li Qing tried hard to block out these useless information.
Finally, a smell reached his nose, bringing him enough useful information:
"That's feed, lots and lots of feed..."
"Corn, wheat bran, and cake residues were piled up nearby."
When Li Qing smelled the pig food, his eyes lit up instantly.
Of course, he didn't want to eat, but he thought of a way to make the enemy invisible to him.
So, the moment Thomas saw him, Li Qing suddenly spread out his four hooves and ran.
He moved forward in a circuitous manner along the low concrete wall of the rectangular pigpen , using the concrete wall to block the enemy's sight while crisscrossing the aisles between the pigpens.
"stop!"
Thomas let out a loud shout with a gloomy expression.
Seeing Li Qing trying hard to hide his bulky body in such a funny posture and trying to play hide-and-seek with him with the help of the low concrete wall, he simply gave up the effort to adjust his position.
Thomas leaped directly onto the low concrete wall of a nearby pigpen.
Standing on this concrete wall about one meter high, he immediately had an excellent view of "seeing all the mountains".
“I see you.”
Li Qing's clumsy hiding method no longer worked, Thomas' eyes were already locked on his body through the orange eyepiece.
Then, amid the blank and ignorant gazes of the circle of sows...
Thomas, who was standing on the wall of the pigsty, quickly pulled the trigger and once again shot a metal storm at the pig with a conspicuous blood bar floating above its head.
Sixteen metal bullets shot out in a storm of fire.
They changed direction in the air, condensing into an indestructible spear, and finally hit Li Qing accurately and pierced through his troubled left front leg joint again.
Li Qing's figure staggered suddenly.
But he didn't fall down.
Having anticipated this, he slowed down after hearing the gunshots, and tried hard to keep his body steady after being shot in the front leg.
"The enemy has already opened fire..."
"Perhaps because he was afraid that I would get too close to attack him, he used the double-barreled shotgun, which has the strongest repelling effect."
"Just like I just heard, this kind of gun needs to be reloaded after each shot. In order to prevent me from escaping as much as possible, the enemy's next move is definitely not to stop and reload, but to... throw a grenade!"
Li Qing ran as fast as he could while predicting the enemy's movements in his mind.
And just as he thought, Thomas did not choose to reload and shoot again.
He immediately took out a grenade from his waist, quickly pulled out the pull ring, then locked the target and threw the grenade back with force as it entered the countdown to explosion.
“Here it comes…”
Li Qing smelled the smell of gunpowder coming from mid-air, which was getting closer and stronger.
He was still running forward.
At the same time, a smile appeared on his cute pig face:
"Just in time... I'm almost there."
Li Qing leaped forward and rushed forward with the grenade chasing him from behind.
Standing in front of him was a tall machine, a large feed pellet machine used by pig farms to mix and process feed in batches.
Next to this feed machine is a pile of processed mixed pig feed stacked on the ground like a small hill.
Li Qing ran into him headfirst.
As all pigs dream, he flew into a hill of feed.
At this time, the grenade behind him also caught up.
It exploded like thunder on Li Qing's body and in the pile of feed.
boom!
High-pressure air waves swept out in all directions.
The strong wind swept up the feed mixed with corn and wheat bran, and immediately swept up a thick yellow fog.
"What?!"
Thomas's face changed slightly.
The next moment, a piece of corn kernels catapulted by the blast hit him head-on.
The power of these corn kernels was naturally not strong, but Thomas was already standing on the narrow low wall with difficulty, and his center of gravity was very unstable.
Not only did he suddenly eat a mouthful of pig bran as a result of the explosion, he even staggered backwards and fell into the pigpen, sitting on the stinking, wet ground.
“Pooh, pooh!”
Thomas hurriedly spat out the pig food that had entered his mouth.
Then, surrounded by a circle of sows, he stood up in a miserable state from the dirty and disgusting unknown liquid, quickly raised his gun and looked at the enemy.
At this time, the dust from the exploding grain was still spreading, temporarily blocking the view.
"Where is he?"
Thomas nervously observed the fog where only a vague shadow could be seen.
"rest assured."
The supervisor's reminder sounded in time from the wireless headset.
While Thomas was confronting Li Qing, he had been hiding behind and observing everything that happened on the battlefield.
"Li Qing didn't escape to some other place, otherwise I would have seen it."
"He is hiding in the fog now. Once the fog clears, we will be able to find him."
The supervisor provided Thomas with this crucial intelligence.
"Um."
Thomas nodded and continued to concentrate on observing the fog in front of him.
The fog cleared quickly.
Because the pig farm was very large, the dust and fog stirred up by the explosion quickly diluted into the wide space around it, becoming thin and translucent, and no longer able to help people hide.
In just a few seconds, the scene hidden behind the fog was completely exposed.
"What?!"
Thomas's face froze:
The fog lifted, but the prey was gone.
The eye-catching blood bar never appeared again, and Li Qing just disappeared in the dust and fog that lasted only a few seconds.
All Thomas could see now was the pigsty in ruins after the explosion, and the fat pigs in the pigpens that were frightened by the explosion.
"How is it possible... How could he disappear so quickly?"
Thomas couldn't find the pig with the blood bar on its head no matter what he did.
He quickly asked into the wireless headset:
"Manager, are you sure Li Qing didn't escape to some other place?"
"I'm sure." The supervisor's voice was also a little doubtful: "He definitely didn't escape from the area covered by the fog just now."
"this…"
Thomas looked a little confused:
Since Li Qing didn't escape to some other place, how could he disappear in just a few seconds?
He had such a conspicuous blood bar on his head, which made him completely different from other pigs. It was impossible not to notice him.
Wait... health bar...
Thomas suddenly realized something:
As long as he doesn't use his "stand ability" and doesn't have that health bar, Lee Sin looks no different from any other pig.
That is to say…
Thomas looked at the fat pigs huddled together and grunting, and his expression became very strange:
"Li Qing, are you hiding in these pigs now?"
