Chapter 32 Tapping Potential
Yan Jiucheng immediately half-squatted, Xuanlin understood when he saw it, he also immediately half-squatted, the hands of the two people were folded, and Lao Hang stepped on it with one foot.
An invisible tacit understanding appeared on the three of them.
The old hanger stepped on their wrapped arms, and then kicked on a person's shoulder, climbing high and looking into the distance.
Not far away, at most thirty meters away, two elephants with a baby elephant walked slowly and stopped under two large trees nearby, one of which was perhaps a little itchy, rubbing its body against the trunk.
Presumably, it was also because of this that the birds resting on the trees were disturbed.
Also, only elephants can invade the territory of male lions with impunity.
"A few wild elephants, dragging their families with their mouths. Lao Hang breathed a sigh of relief, and the cat bent his waist and pointed to the distance: "Keep going, don't make a sound." ”
"Wild elephants are very aggressive. Xuan Lin followed closely behind Lao Jiao, and the three of them walked quickly, with the cat on their waists, and it was not too much to describe it as fleeing in embarrassment.
"It's only thirty meters away from us, and it's scary. Lao Hang was a little afraid and pointed to the flock of frightened birds in the sky: "If it weren't for the reminder of these birds, it would have been difficult for the three elephants to come very close to us before we knew, fortunately, we were lucky, this group of birds saved us." ”
The elephant's footsteps are so light that they are bulky, but when they walk on the soft grass, they can almost be described as silent.
In the distance, the three elephants walked leisurely and leisurely, compared to the human beings who were like frightened birds, one strong and one weak.
"It's okay, the elephant has bad eyesight and a very sensitive sense of smell, and we are so far apart...... It should be safe. The old hanging squinted and looked, at this angle can see the elephant, only to see the elephant casually drooping its ears, casually shaking its nose, and there is no attack when there will be fluttering ears, rolling up the nose and other actions, more and more relieved, said: "They did not find us, in case they dodge, rush over, we can avoid the moment they approach the left or right sharp turn." ”
Lao Hang said it easily.
Dodging a frontal attack from an elephant and making a sharp turn is a good way to dodge it, after all, elephants have poor eyesight, and they are likely to be unable to see clearly when you make a sharp turn and rush straight past you.
But don't forget, it also has a long nose...... Oh no, before you can make a sharp turn, you get hooked by a long nose.
At this time, the three of them felt the footsteps of the Grim Reaper approaching and getting farther away, and they were more and more grateful to the flock of birds flying away in the sky.
The distance to the ruined building was getting closer, and the sky was darkening.
As it gets dark, the sense of danger grows stronger.
"Let's go, we're going to get everything we need to make the fire before it gets dark. The old crane took the lead and ran, and in the distance there was only a little red sun left before it fell into the horizon, and the distant fire clouds looked as if they had burned all the way to the swamp, and the water and grass rippled like fire.
Very beautiful sunset.
It is impossible to see such a beautiful sunset in the city.
The endless grasslands, burned red by the sun, like satin, and some high mountains in the distance, the air is full of the smell of nature.
In the distance, the grass that floated with the wind was like a rolling wave.
Yan Jiucheng glanced back.
His heart moved, he had seen this scene in the movies, in the wild survival shows he liked to watch, and in the animal world.
But it's all through the screen and the personal experience is still different.
Yan Jiucheng especially likes to watch films about survival in the wild, and has imagined countless times how to do it if he has the opportunity to come to such a place, and I remember that I fantasized about it last week.
Unexpectedly, just a week later, the fantasy actually became a reality.
I actually appeared in such a wild field full of fierce beasts, followed by two brothers who I never thought I would know before, and I also have the identity of a reporter for national television.
It all came too suddenly, like the red and boundless aquatic plants in front of us, rippling with the wind. Yan Jiucheng even wondered if if there was a camera to capture all this now, would he win an international award for journalist photography.
An endless fiery red grassland, a half-set sunset, a few leisurely elephants and three cats fleeing for their lives.
Yan Jiucheng was a little sorry, there should be a shot, if this scene is filmed......
As he thought, he looked around.
Gu Miqing: They should have set up a camera to observe, right?
He looked like a reporter instinctively to the most suitable place to place the camera, looked around, and his eyes fell on a large tree not far away, and then looked at the big tree where the lion was infested.
"If they're monitoring, there's definitely a camera on that big tree on the lion's side, and it's ...... along the way. Yan Jiucheng looked at a tree more than ten meters away from this road.
"Jiucheng, let's go! What are you doing in a daze!" the old hanger shouted, stretching out his hand and dragging Yan Jiucheng, who was standing in place.
Gu Miqing looked at the screen, Yan Jiucheng on the screen was facing the camera, and the camera was closer, as if looking at her.
"In the end, he is a journalist, and the lens is very sensitive. The old man smiled approvingly.
On the screen, Yan Jiucheng's face was extremely dirty, but his eyes were very clear, and his young face seemed to be looking directly at Gu Miqing through the screen.
After discovering the camera, a smug smile appeared on his lips.
This made Gu Miqing a little uncomfortable.
She subconsciously stretched out her hand and touched her neck, picked up the pen and wrote something, and said, "He is too proud and impetuous." ”
Seeing that it is getting closer and closer to the abandoned building.
"Damn it!" the old man cursed, and the three of them stopped abruptly.
A lake about 30 meters wide appeared in front of me, and the lake surrounded the ruined building.
If you want to walk to the ruined building, you have to wade across the lake to get there.
And in the lake, there are a few hippos lying quietly......
Hippopotamus, but the big guy that the lions don't dare to mess with.
Not to mention humans.
"It's terrible. Yan Jiucheng looked in the direction of the sun, and in five minutes at most, the light would disappear, and the land would sink into darkness.
"They deliberately made it difficult for us. Xuan Lin said as he stretched out his hand and pointed to the woods in the distance: "If we had chosen to go to the woods in the first place, we wouldn't have had to make such a big detour, and we wouldn't have to walk at night." ”
Under the circumstances, everyone would have chosen a ruined building instead of a woods as a base for the night.
"Yes, I didn't think of this floor at the time!How could they build a ruined building for us to hide?!" the old hanger slapped his thigh in frustration.
"There's no time to delay, should we get the fire first or run to the woods in the dark?" Yan Jiucheng's face also changed.
After a scorching day of rest, at night, these predators are ready to forage.
And from here to the woods, it takes at least half an hour.
If there is a ditch on the road, it will take an hour.
For an hour, the three of them were exposed to the grass without any shelter without any weapons, and although they did not necessarily encounter a fierce beast, once a fierce beast infested nearby, they would inevitably be targeted.
As the sun went down, the whole grassland and marshland were plunged into darkness, and the woods in the distance were even darker.
The moon has not yet fully climbed up, and the light is not strong.
"Anyway, stay away from this puddle first, it's probably a drinking spot for all the animals in the neighborhood, it's too dangerous. Lao Hang looked around.
The grassland is plunged into darkness very quickly, much faster than in the city.
It was as if the sun had gone down in an instant, and the whole earth was dark.
A few people can't see far, which is basically equivalent to feeling blind.
"It's ...... that's bright." Xuan Lin overshadowed his eyes and pointed in the direction of the woods, and at half the distance to the woods, a few bright little white dots were very dazzling.
"I can't see the eyes of a wolf or any other animal. Lao Hang gasped, squatted down, and lowered his voice: "Don't make a sound, we can't see clearly now, but they can see clearly." ”
This is equal to one in the light and one in the dark.
It takes about 40 minutes for humans to adapt to night vision in the dark, and 20 minutes to half an hour for those who are more adaptable. This is weaker than other animals.
With a black eye, the three of them were tightly back to back, and under the stars, they looked particularly small.
"It's almost over. The old man looked up at the screen.
Gu Miqing looked at the vital signs of the three of them again, and nodded: "The data is almost done, there are still a few small tests, and it can be over, we don't have time, and it doesn't take too many days in the field." ”
"Who is suitable to be the captain?" the old man looked up, "Is the conclusion out?" ”
Gu Miqing frowned slightly, lowered her head and looked at the information in her hand, which was densely packed with words written by her.
"Who is suitable to be the captain...... Gu Miqing flipped through the paper, took the pen and calculated: "Among these three, I see ......"
"Gu Miqing. Suddenly, Yan Jiucheng's voice came, clear, and suddenly, as if talking face-to-face, startled Gu Miqing.
She looked up at the screen, startled.
Then, she looked embarrassed, and her face turned red as soon as she brushed the ground.
