Chapter 31: Fireworks in the Night Sky
Li Yifeng's cooking level is very high, and the two chickens called Hua are fragrant and attractive, which makes people appetizing, but it is obviously not enough for five adults to eat two incomplete chickens, but this is difficult for Situ Kong. Because he actually dug out two vacuum-packed ducks from his backpack!
"Situ, you really think you're out for a wild trip, how much food do you have in your bag? You can take out anything in that bag, and I'll call you a robot cat when I see it. Xu Xudong took a bite of the duck leg in his hand and said.
"I still like Totoro compared to that blue robot cat that is afraid of mice." Situ Kong, who was leaning on his backpack, was a little dissatisfied with Xu Xudong's nickname.
"Hey, Totoro isn't just as afraid of mice."
"You're afraid of mice, and your whole family is afraid of mice!"
"No matter how much food is still in Situ's bag, after eating this meal, we still have to find a way to solve the food problem by ourselves starting tomorrow. We can't just rely on the food that Situ carries to complete the 'Soul Gate', and besides, we have to be prepared for some unexpected situations that may arise. Luo Hao interrupted the quarrel between Situ Kong and Xu Xudong and proposed. His proposal was also approved by Zhou Bai.
Shout~!
In the northeast direction of Luo Hao's team, a signal flare flew high into the air with a small tail, and then a pink spark bloomed in the air, and someone pulled the distress baton and chose to give up.
"I didn't expect another team to give up so soon." It seemed to be a pity for the two teams that chose to give up as soon as they entered the jungle, Zhou Bai said with some feelings.
"This is the survival of the fittest in nature, whether it is plants, animals, or people, they are all equal in this primeval jungle. This is their own choice, and we have no right to intervene. Luo Hao stood beside Zhou Bai and said calmly, "Let's discuss the issue of rotating guards next night." ”
The jungle at night is full of dangers, not only to guard against wild animals that go out to feed, but also to guard against poisonous snakes and poisonous insects. Yun Xi is the only woman in the team, she needs special care, she doesn't have to participate in the night watch, and there are five men in the team, according to Luo Hao's opinion, one person takes turns every two hours, which is enough to support until dawn the next day.
There was only one tent, and it was obviously inappropriate for Yun Xi to sleep with a group of men, so Luo Hao used two backpacks to separate a relatively independent place for Yun Xi to rest.
Zhou Bai took out a bottle of lime powder from his backpack and sprinkled it evenly around the tent.
"Looks like we're going to go together." Luo Hao raised a bag of realgar powder in a sealed bag in his hand and said to Zhou Bai.
"When I first joined the army, a comrade-in-arms was bitten by a snake because of his inexperience while camping in the wilderness, and later delayed the time to seek medical treatment and was forced to amputate one of his legs, and received a discharge pay and went home. Eat a trench and grow wise, the same mistake can not be made a second time. ”
Zhou Bai stuffed the bottle back into his backpack and smiled at Luo Hao: "Although the effect of our method is the same, mine is safer than yours." ”
Although realgar is effective in repelling snakes, realgar is poisonous. It has a low melting point, and when heated by charcoal, it will emit white smoke of arsenic trioxide with a garlic flavor, that is, arsenic. Moreover, realgar is not easy to obtain, and even if it is carried, the number is limited, so the easiest and most effective way to prevent snakes in the wild is to sprinkle grass and wood ash around the tent.
"I'll be on the first shift in the evening, and the rest of the people will go and rest first." Luo Hao said to Zhou Bai and the others.
Zhou Bai nodded and was about to get into the tent when a signal flare rose in the jungle in the southeast direction and bloomed a gorgeous flower in the night sky...... In just ten minutes, no less than fifty signal flares had been raised over the jungle.
"What a beautiful night sky fireworks!" Yun Xi raised his head and looked at the pink signal flare shining in the dark blue night sky and said.
……
After Yun Xi and the others entered the tent, more than a dozen signal flares rose into the night sky, but the frequency was not as dense as during dinner. Luo Hao roughly estimated that within less than eight hours of entering the jungle, nearly 100 people had already chosen to give up, accounting for a quarter of the total number, and the elimination rate was almost crazy.
Wild beasts are afraid of fire, so leaving a fire when you sleep at night can effectively prevent the invasion of wild beasts. Luo Hao sat on a section of the trunk of a tree, fiddling with the fire in front of him with the branches in his hand, and a slight "beep" sound broke out from time to time in the fire.
Just as Luo Hao was staring at the fire in a daze, the tent behind him was opened, and Zhou Bai got out of it.
Luo Hao glanced at the time on his watch and said to Zhou Bai: "It's not time for you to be on duty yet." ”
"Can we talk?" Zhou Bai walked on a section of tree trunk next to Luo Hao, threw a piece of firewood into the fire and asked.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"You!"
"Talk about me? I have something to talk about. Luo Hao sneered and continued to stir the fire with the branch in his hand.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should have been a soldier, and you're a special soldier!" Zhou Bai looked at the corners of Luo Hao's mouth and continued: "The conversation tonight is limited to the two of us, so you don't have to rush to deny it. Do you know what it was like to look at me when we first met? Beast! The feeling of danger as a beast ready to tear its prey apart at any moment made me feel uneasy, so I secretly told myself that this was an extremely dangerous fellow. ”
"One look doesn't mean anything. Basketball players will also deliberately train their eyes to look at each other in order to deter their opponents in head-on confrontations. Luo Hao shook his head and denied.
"How do you explain your extensive experience in the wilderness? Also, the fighting technique you used to defeat Wang Yang should be the MCMAP of the US Navy SEALs, right? Zhou Bai said step by step.
"You may say that you are self-taught based on the information on the market, but I can see that you can't use MCMAP as skillfully as you do, at least not to that extent, so I dare say that you must have received rigorous and systematic training. Rich experience in wilderness survival, rigorous and systematic MCMAP training, only elite special forces can achieve both of these things. What troop are you from, Southwest Falcons? Tigers of the Night? The Sword of South China? ”
"It's a shame you don't go to be a detective." Luo Hao changed his direction and admitted Zhou Bai's inference, and said: "I did serve as a soldier, as for which unit I served in, I can't tell you now, maybe you will know in the near future." ”
Zhou Bai nodded and didn't delve into it, after all, everyone has their own secrets that they can't tell.
"When I'm done, it's time to talk about you." Luo Hao glanced at Zhou Bai and asked, "You like Yunxi, right?" ”
