021 Bad luck one after another
It was getting dark, and the temperature in the rainforest dropped to the mid-twenties.
The temperature dropped suddenly, I felt a little cool, rubbed my shoulders with both hands, and observed Li Guofeng worriedly.
I was less than a meter away from him, but it was like an insurmountable chasm.
More than half an hour has passed, and Li Guofeng's symptoms are almost certain to be malaria.
Low-grade fever, already in a coma several times in a short period of time.
I rummaged through my fanny pack, but there was nothing to help him.
I reached out and groped around my body, checking for any visible wounds with the faint moonlight and the touch of my palm.
After the check-up, I sprayed some of the little insect repellent spray I had left on every corner of my body.
I moved a few steps to Li Guoduan, reached out and touched his forehead.
"Low temperature ......"
I frowned and said to the sleepy Li Guofeng: "Doctor, hold on a little longer, Wang Wei will be here soon." ”
He looked at me weakly, his pale mouth trembling and said, "Cold, so cold......"
I took off the only T-shirt I had on me and draped it over him, holding my shotgun, and watching around vigilantly.
The rainforest is quiet during the day and comes alive at night.
"Rustling ......"
Suddenly, a small dark shadow passed in front of me.
I saw a pair of glowing green eyes staring at me not far away.
As it got darker, I started to get anxious.
Li Guofeng's face became more and more pale, and the temperature on his forehead was frighteningly high, and he became weaker and weaker.
"Hurry......"
I frowned and whispered, and dragged Li Guofeng against the edge of a relatively thick tree.
"Oh, oh!"
As soon as I leaned against the tree, I heard a rough bark overhead, like a cat's meow.
I was holding a shotgun and saw a one-meter-long black figure standing on a branch with a yellow glow in its eyes.
"Damn, I even ran into a feral cat!"
By the meow alone, I was sure that it was a cat crouching in the tree, but it was too dark to tell what breed it was.
I don't know how many wild beasts there are, and the wild cats overhead are also a certain threat.
You know, there are many types of feral cats, and most of them are carnivores.
Li Guofeng moved his body with difficulty, and said weakly: "You, you go first, it's more dangerous to stay here......"
I looked at him, then at the beast lurking in the grass, shook my head, and said, "Wait." ”
As I spoke, I pulled out some drinking water from my bag, wet my hands, and began to try to physically cool down.
Persistent high fever, I'm afraid that Li Guofeng won't be able to carry Wang Weilai.
But when it gets dark in the woods, we won't be able to see what kind of beast we're facing, and we won't have the strength to fight back.
I briefly dealt with Li Guofeng and decided to transfer the location.
At the very least, by the sea.
"Dr. Li, I'll help you on the shore, you must hold on." I carried Li Guofeng hard, persuading as I walked.
"Okay, me, let's go......"
I took one of Li Guofeng's hands and moved towards the position of the coast.
For a while, the animals in the forest began to move, sparse and extremely noisy.
I dragged Li Guofeng to the shore little by little, and then in the moonlight, I could still see the appearance of the sea.
The raft still didn't show up.
"Damn, what did that kid do?" I couldn't help but curse.
"Sand ......"
As soon as I finished speaking, there was a palpable commotion in the woods not far from me.
"Click."
I hurriedly loaded my shotgun, took a deep breath and stared at the location of the sound.
Approaching was a wild cat, followed by several smaller companions.
The sea breeze is blowing, and the temperature is lower.
I glanced at Li Guofeng, stared at the facial features that had become blurred because of the darkness, gritted my teeth and shouted: "No matter, if you can delay time, just delay!" ”
With that, I stood up and aimed my gun at the wildcat's position.
"Bang!"
There was an abrupt sound in the woods, and a group of wild cats slowly crept into the woods, and a few bright eyes disappeared from my sight.
The effect of deterrence is surprisingly good.
But I knew that the sound of the guns only scared them away temporarily, and even attracted more ferocious beasts.
But Li Guofeng's rapid gasp made me have to make such a decision.
After firing a shot, I quickly loaded my load, crouched down and sat on the sand on the ground, and applied it to his wrist joints and armpits.
The sea breeze at night is relatively large, and the temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius when you soak in the seawater.
It's much worse than ice, but there's only one way to do it right now.
I tried to cool Li Guofeng several times, and the effect improved slightly.
Li Guofeng insisted on not falling asleep, and his state was on the verge of coma.
I hurriedly slapped the sand away from Li Guofeng's joint, and was about to change the sand again, when I vaguely saw a point of light approaching me.
I almost jumped up and shouted, "This way, hurry up!" ”
"It's coming, it's coming!"
I heard Yu Ruo's voice, and I couldn't help but be happy.
Soon the raft docked next to me, accompanied only by Wang Wei.
I carried Li Guofeng onto the raft, and Yu Ruo took out a syringe from the medicine box and injected him.
She put her hand on Li Guofeng's forehead, frowned and said, "Fortunately, it's just a fever period, and the body temperature hasn't risen too significantly, let's go back to the fence first." ”
Wang Wei didn't speak, directly rowed the raft, and returned the same way.
I was lying on the raft, so nervous that I was losing a lot of heat and almost no strength.
"Why are you so slow?" I looked at the sky and couldn't help but complain.
Yu Ruo observed Li Guofeng, fed him a few more pills, and sighed: "The visibility is too low at night, and we have drawn the wrong direction several times. ”
"Go back as fast as you can, there are crocodiles on the other side of the bay, visibility is low at night, and if you don't see the yellow flag, we are in danger."
Yu Ruo swallowed his saliva and whispered: "It won't be so unlucky, if you meet a crocodile at night, and there is a sick ......"
I glanced at Li Guofeng and narrowed my eyes, "Resign yourself to fate." ”
Wang Wei said in a thick voice: "Isn't it just a crocodile?" Give Lao Tzu a knife and kill a good stew! ”
I listened to his somewhat anxious tone and smiled: "Let's think about how to save my life first, night is different from daytime, visibility is relatively low, do you think you can see what is in the sea with this flashlight?" ”
I stretched out my hand and opened the hand brought by Wang Wei and laughed, pressed the flashlight, and shot the light onto the sea, almost unable to see it.
"There is a certain refraction in the sea, in case of a crocodile sneak attack, we can only wait for death!"
With that, I took a sip of water, shook my arms and stood up, and joined the rowing procession.
As the raft entered the bay, I could see a light outside the fence and a plump figure standing in front waving to me.
With a direction, Wang Wei and I rowed hard towards the finish line.
"Whoa......
Suddenly, something black broke through the sea.
I spat on a cold face and ran to the front of the raft with my short knife......
