Chapter 431 Big Trouble
The village chief here is called Jacob and his daughter is called Sophia.
She is a girl with some freckles, but very cute and smart.
Her girlish innocence gradually began to blossom towards Luke, and she would think of all kinds of excuses to come to see Luke every day.
Luke naturally knew what the girl wanted, but he still rejected her.
The village elder father saw his daughter return home disappointed, and after trying to persuade her, he came to find Luke.
It's not about questioning Luke, but about questioning him.
"What is your purpose in coming back?"
Luke put down his carpentry and sighed.
"I just want to find a quiet place to live for a while, that's all."
Jacob looked at Luke deeply for a while, and seeing that Luke was very sincere, he finally nodded.
"Since you want to live here, live well and don't show off everywhere."
Luke could naturally tell that this was the complaint of an old father.
He smiled and spread his hands.
They didn't say anything, but they both knew it.
What kind of personality does Sofia have? She is a person who dares to love and hate, and does whatever she thinks of immediately.
How could a father not know what kind of personality his daughter has?
This is just the old father trying to get back at his daughter's expense.
There was no choice but to accept it.
On the other side of the valley near the village is an abandoned Soviet-era building complex.
This was originally a mine, but was later abandoned.
Although Siberia is very cold, the resources here are still very rich.
There really is everything in the mountains...
The indigenous people here are also very enthusiastic, such as the bear that stands more than 2 meters tall...
People in the village still follow the old way of hunting, with bow and arrow.
But there are also some old-fashioned double-barreled shotguns.
Normally, bows and arrows are used, and hunting rifles are only used in emergencies. After all, this old-fashioned hunting rifle does not have many bullets.
Today is the day for collective collection in the village.
There are many fruits and mushrooms that can be collected at the foot of the snow mountain.
The women carried baskets, backpacks and food.
The men were armed with bows and shotguns.
Because Luke came back from outside, he was well equipped, but no one said anything.
Today Luke is carrying a Mosin-Nagant rifle.
His appearance looks a little more delicate, and everyone thinks it's because he takes good care of himself.
But this is Luke's modified one.
The internal parts have been optimized again using special metals.
The wooden buttstock is also made of magical materials. It is light, strong, and not easily deformed by moisture.
To this end, Luke also specially modified the muzzle so that it could be equipped with a silencer.
Whether it is a jungle or a forest, the best weapon for hunting is actually a bow and arrow or a crossbow.
Its advantage is that it makes little noise and is not likely to scare other prey.
The troublesome thing is that it will be troublesome if you encounter a large wild beast close to you.
Sofia is also dressed as a hunter today.
Carrying a bow and arrow.
Even though Luke rejected her, Sophia was a stubborn girl.
Her outfit today is also very special, making her look particularly capable and heroic.
This is a big event in the village, and young men and women all dress up.
Sophia is the daughter of the village chief and has a strong tomboyish personality.
Although she is very beautiful, all the boys in the village who pursued her have been defeated by her...
So, no one in the village pursued her.
Finally, someone came who we don’t know her background about, so why not catch her quickly?
The other girls and guys are helping Sofia create opportunities...
Hurry up and take this little witch away, warrior...
Luke was dressed very "ordinary" today.
No one in the village recognized the high-end custom-made goods he was wearing and thought they were street stall goods.
Just normal outdoor adventure outfit with a cowboy hat.
After walking for a long time with the main group, chatting and laughing, we arrived at another valley.
The scenery here is indeed beautiful.
The sky is blue, very blue, without a single cloud.
The snow-capped mountains can be clearly seen in the distance.
This forest benefits from the nourishment of the snow-capped mountains and is rich in resources.
Many young people split into groups and went hunting around.
Finally, only Luke and Sofia were left.
In addition to the bow and arrow, Sophia's equipment also includes a dagger, which can be considered a short knife, slightly longer than an ordinary dagger.
Luke has seen it, and it is actually the modified bayonet of the Mosin Nagant.
Following Sofia, the two walked towards the forest.
"Won't it be heavy for you to carry such a big backpack?"
Luke always carries a mountaineering bag, which is a little smaller than a professional mountaineering bag. It is not big, but not small either.
Luke smiled and shook his head.
He reached into the backpack at the back and finally pulled out a quick-draw holster with a pistol inside.
Hand it to Sophia.
"Take it. If a wild animal suddenly appears in the forest, you will be safer with this."
Sophia happily took the gun Luke handed over.
A very exquisite pistol, modified by Luke based on the PPK.
It is slightly larger than the original because it uses the 7.62 caliber Tokarev pistol bullet.
That is the same bullet as the 54 Black Star.
This type of bullet is easy to find in Russia.
It's very powerful, and the gun only has a 6-round magazine capacity, but it's enough for emergencies.
Because of its small and exquisite appearance, it sells very well even in the United States and is very popular among ladies.
However, the caliber sold in the United States is the original 0.32ACP bullet.
Sofia happily buckled the holster onto her outer belt.
Looking at Luke's handsome face, he blushed and took out a knife from his arms.
With a scabbard, it is slender but delicate, less than 20 cm long.
Luke stared at the dagger in shock.
He took the dagger with the girl's body scent and took a closer look.
Wow, it’s an antique. The handle is made of ivory and has a few gems on it.
Luke looked at Sophia, who was blushing a little.
And gave her back the dagger.
"This is too expensive."
Sophia didn't reach out to take it, but just looked at Luke blankly.
"When lovers give each other tokens of love, there is no distinction between the value of the gifts. This... this is my heart."
Luke naturally understood and smiled bitterly.
"Sophia, I will leave here eventually. I came here just to be alone..."
"Who is Jingjing?"
Wrong, try again...
"I don't care, I'll go wherever you go."
Luke sighed inwardly. This was the most troublesome thing, okay...
If you stay quietly in the village, you might still have a chance...
He shook his head and said to Sophia with a serious face:
"My identity is somewhat special. You can't stay with me forever. It's inconvenient."
Sophia lowered her head, bit her lip, and thought for a long time.
"Then I will wait for you in the village until you come back. I think your work will be done one day."
Luke looked up to the sky and sighed.
The hardest thing to bear is the kindness of a beautiful woman.
"I am a wild horse, but you, my girl, have no grassland in your home..."
Sophia looked at Luke, bit her lip, and tears welled up in her blue eyes.
Sophia turned around and ran away crying...ran away...
With a sigh, Luke followed her from a distance. Even though he refused, he would never let anything happen to her.
Not long after they walked, Luke received an urgent message from Lilith.
"Boss, according to the news from the drone, a large number of armed men have entered your area."
"The big trouble has finally arrived..."
