Chapter 54: The Storm Rises
The next day, as soon as the sun rose, the camp began to be lively, and Hilton and the people began to measure the humidity of the air.
Yu Zhiqian's face was sullen: "What's the use of this?" ”
After Hilton arranged the machinery, he smiled: "Measure the air humidity, according to the data comparison, to find out some recent changes in the natural environment in the reserve, whether there is a shortage of water, etc., if the data is abnormal, you need to ......"
Yu Zhiqian listened to it ignorantly, worthy of being a professor who publishes papers in SCI Zone 1 every day, he can't understand what he says, think about some PhDs in China, the repetition rate of papers is more than 40%, plagiarism, there has not been a work in SCI Zone 2, and he doesn't even know CNKI, but he is a doctor, which shows how big the gap is.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhiqian felt that it was better for him to simply exercise his body.
After the morning measurements, the convoy began to move on, according to Hilton, to track down a herd of wild animals, some rare animals have GPS on them, and after finding them, they will be examined and some blood samples will be taken so that they can continue their research.
About a few dozen kilometers away in the distance, three white men drove a car, constantly looking at the map, and a green dot on it kept flashing: "This group of guys is about to hit the road after a night's rest, damn it, it's still going in the opposite direction for us!" ”
"Don't worry, Mike, they can't run away!" The driver of the car, while whistling, looked at the surrounding scenery, 200,000 US dollars is not much, and one of the three people does not even have 70,000, but he can't stand this simple task, and in the middle of no man's land, he doesn't know it.
With the same purpose as these three people, there is also a group of black people, but the equipment of this group of people is much more rudimentary, there are no vehicles, they can only walk, not only to avoid the attack of wild beasts, but even to avoid the patrol inspection, but their direction is on the road where Yu Zhiqian and others are traveling, if Yu Zhiqian and others keep advancing, two hours later, it is possible to encounter.
A leading black man, holding something similar to a GPS in his hand, kept looking up at the sky, saying something he didn't understand, and finally, pointing in a direction and motioning for everyone to follow.
The speed of the convoy is getting slower and slower, and the deeper it gets into the reserve, the worse the road becomes, and in many cases, it can't even keep up with the speed of walking, and the convoy has to stop at any time to check the surrounding soil, etc.
Yu Zhiqian smoked a cigarette and watched this group of people work, glad that he didn't study hard back then, otherwise, maybe he was also a doctor, after all, the doctoral dissertation of Peking University is so simple, he will definitely be able to pass, and he may also do this kind of work at that time, it is estimated that he may go crazy.
At noon, when the convoy stopped again to prepare for a break, Yu Zhiqian keenly noticed that a group of small red dots appeared three kilometers away from him, a total of thirty.
"Is it a herd of antelopes or a herd of horses?" Yu Zhiqian frowned, took out his binoculars, stood on the roof of the car, and looked into the distance, high-powered binoculars, you can see far away on the unobstructed plain, but Yu Zhiqian was blocked by trees. (There is a visual distance during the day, so the detection radius is shortened, and there will be energy loss)
"Maybe it's an animal race!" With yesterday's experience, Yu Zhiqian knew that this kind of sudden animal group, many times, is all kinds of wild animals, this is a wildlife sanctuary, there are groups of animals everywhere, this morning, Yu Zhiqian also found a zebra herd composed of about 100 zebras.
After lighting a fire and cooking at noon, after everything was done, nearly half an hour had passed, Yu Zhiqian came to the car with his rice bowl, continued to observe the surrounding situation, and found that the small group of thirty animals had come to within 800 meters of him.
"Coming at us?" Yu Zhiqian felt that things were not as simple as he imagined, so he immediately put down his rice bowl, took out the binoculars again, and looked over, but it was still the damn woods blocking the view, and if he passed through the woods, he was already less than three hundred meters away from Yu Zhiqian and the others.
"Head, what's wrong?"
While eating, John asked curiously, Yu Zhiqian pointed to the woods in the distance: "There is an unknown group of about thirty people over there who are thinking about moving in our direction, if it is an animal, it will only take half an hour to walk less than three kilometers, it feels a little wrong!" ”
"Do you want me to go over and have a look!"
Yu Zhiqian nodded: "Bring the equipment, be careful, and notify me as soon as there is an accident!" ”
"Yes!"
John immediately put down his lunch, picked up his weapon, put on a bulletproof vest, and walked towards the woods in full gear, while Yu Zhiqian also kept observing the situation with a telescope behind him, but the woods were very dense, and it was difficult to find out what was going on.
"Robert, if there is any unexpected situation, you and the professor and the others will immediately retreat to the back and keep the radio on!"
Little Robert had a piece of meat in his mouth, and he didn't know what was going on, so he could only nod his head, indicating that he knew, Yu Zhiqian touched his head and took a deep breath, hoping that it was just a false alarm, but there would be some bad premonitions in his heart.
On the other side, the illegal mercenary team composed of three people was only less than twenty kilometers away from Yu Zhiqian and the others, and the driver turned his head to look at the boss in the back row: "Head, you said that our target this time is a group of professors, and that group of people are rich people, you said that we should kidnap them and squeeze more oil and water out, after all, taking such a big risk, 200,000 US dollars is a bit less!" ”
The boss who takes the lead is nicknamed Vicious Dog, but he likes others to call him Sideburns Dog, there is an obvious scar on his face, he is playing with a titanium dagger in his hand, and a cold light flashes in his eyes: "We want 200,000, I have checked, the professor called Hilton has a little connection with the American Hilton family, and you can listen to my command when the time comes!" After saying that, he licked the dagger with his tongue.
"Good, head! The other party doesn't seem to move, it should be cooking, by the way, we received information before, saying that the scientific expedition team found the security company, and the specific name was not found, but the message sent said that they only had a total of fifteen people and four cars! ”
"Got it!" After saying that, the sideburns closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
In the woods in the distance, the leader of the thirty blacks, looking at the GPS in his hand, was a little excited, and finally he was about to catch up with the target, and there were still 400 meters, as long as he passed through this forest and rushed to the opposite side, 200,000 yuan would be in hand, and the money was really good!
