Chapter 3: The First Night
After the simple funeral, it was already time for the sun to set, except for Lao Fan, who wanted to guard the tomb of his beloved wife for a while, and Lao You, who wanted to accompany him, everyone else returned to the cliff. Wang Kunjun asked everyone to sit in a circle, explained to everyone what they had just discussed in the car, and then took out the judgments made and put forward a few opinions for discussion and voting by the whole group. In fact, soon after waking up, the vast majority of people have already thought of the word traversal, after all, they are all young people and are not unfamiliar with this word. It's just that when I really have to face this situation now, the feelings in my heart cannot be expressed in words. In fact, everyone and Lao Fan are in a similar mood now, after all, everyone here may not be able to see their relatives again from now on. Lao Fan is heartbroken to lose his beloved wife, but at least he can bury her with his own hands, and others don't even have this chance. Although today's young people are open, independent, and knowledgeable, once they are allowed to face such a situation, everyone is still silent. Wang Kunjun can understand everyone's feelings, but what needs to be done now is not to sigh, but to find a way to survive in the predicament. So after a moment of silence, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, cheer up, let's solve the problem in front of us first." Only by finding a way to survive can you have the opportunity to think about other things. What's more, we are just guessing based on the situation, whether it is a crossing or not, and further verification is needed. After all, they are all young people, and after a short period of depression just now, everyone has raised their spirits again, and some people have even begun to dream of being the invincible protagonists in the time-traveling novels and achieving a heroic cause.
"Okay, don't look forward to any 'Wang Ba's business' for now, let's vote on the opinions that Kun Jun said just now." Zhang Weixin saw that everyone had recovered and greeted with a smile. Fortunately, several suggestions were very reasonable, and everyone had no opinion and passed unanimously. Now that the resolution was passed, seeing that it was almost dark, everyone took advantage of the afterglow of the sunset to start sorting out all the items that could be used.
After some busyness, the results of the spot check were finally obtained before dark, and all the data were gathered into Wang Kunjun's hands. The biggest, but probably the most useless, of these are the six off-road vehicles, and now that they are on this cliff, the probability of being able to drive down is almost zero; Second, if you really travel to ancient times, that is, you can go down the mountain, and the gasoline on the car will run out and it will become a pile of iron. So after discussion, everyone decided to cover the car with a car cover first, and then make plans when the actual situation was determined. The rest of the items are quite numerous, including:
Accommodation: 12 tents of various types---- including 5 double tents and 7 single tents; Eighteen lighters and five boxes of matches.
Food: 9 boxes and 10 bottles of bottled water (mainly mineral water, with more than 2 boxes of iced green tea and iced black tea, and a case of cola); One hundred and two packs of instant noodles; a box of compressed biscuits; Sixty-five packs of various snacks. In addition, there is a set of high-quality Wuliangye gift boxes (Wang Kunjun brought to see a relative when passing by Baotou, and it is also equipped with a set of exquisite glass wine utensils. But this bottle of wine doesn't seem to be suitable for food.
Weapons: a hand crossbow and 30 crossbow arrows (brought by Zeng Zhilin, originally intended to shoot rabbits on the grassland, is currently the most powerful weapon in the group); an imitation of the Tang horizontal knife (brought by Zeng Zhilin, said to be for self-defense); a pair of nunchucks (brought by Wang Feng, it is said to be to show the identity of the Jeet Kune Do master); a stick (brought by Liang Ziyue); 12 Swiss Army knives (one for almost all men, but I'm afraid they are not very good as weapons); Two aluminum baseball bats (brought by Wang Feng and intended to play baseball on the prairie).
March: three compasses; Telescope III; four volumes of national traffic maps; two volumes of the national administrative map; two tourist maps of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region; A tattered tourist map of Beijing -- Wang Kunjun has been in the car all year round, and it is already a little tattered. In addition, there is a shijie map in his car, which is also half-new, and it is estimated that this guy has plans to travel around shijie. Three GPS receivers (currently of no value).
Medicine: five bottles of berberine; 4 boxes of cold powder; three bottles of safflower oil; two boxes of Yunnan Baiyao; Two bottles of fast-acting heart pills.
Communications: 20 mobile phones - as much as GPS. The six walkie-talkies - the No. 7 car was broken, and Lu Yue said that he could try to repair the parts in the mobile phone, and count it as half for the time being. One short-wave radio station and two hand-held stations -- Lu Yue's car had a short-wave radio station and a handset station, and Wang Kunjun brought a handset station. Five flares -- have the function of communication, and are counted as communication equipment.
There are a number of other carry-on clothes, shoes and hats, etc., which do not need to be counted in detail, they are all counted as personal items. Fortunately, the season you are in now should also belong to the range of early summer, otherwise the cold alone can kill everyone. Everything was sorted out, and the items that should be in the collection -- food, medicines, etc. -- were all managed and distributed by Zhang Weixin, Zeng Zhilin, and Hong Yan, who had a background in accounting, and the weapons, communication equipment, compasses, maps, etc., which should be managed by special personnel, were assigned to the designated personnel, and the second item -- the selection of the team's decision-makers began. Although everyone comes from a modern society, they pay attention to the democratic style. However, in today's environment, in order to prevent everyone from fighting on their own and becoming a plate of scattered sand, it is still necessary to elect several deputies under the leadership of one of them, and it is still necessary to make collective decisions and unify command.
As soon as this proposal came out, everyone agreed, and three deputies were quickly elected to form a so-called three-member leading group, namely: Wang Kunjun, Zhang Weixin, and Zeng Zhilin. As for which leader to choose, everyone is more inclined to choose Wang Kunjun. First, Wang Kunjun has always been the organizer of this car club, with a certain authority and familiarity; Second, he has a very good relationship with everyone in the team and has excellent popularity; Third, he is in the company to do management work, some experience. Among them, Wang Feng is the most active, after all, he is a relative, so he naturally has to raise his hands in favor. As a result, Wang Kunjun himself disagreed, he felt that his performance when he first came here was very immature, and he was not suitable to be the leader of everyone, and he suggested that Zhang Weixin should take on this important responsibility. And Zhang Weixin resolutely did not accept Wang Kunjun's suggestion, he said that when he first came here, everyone's performance was not so good, and he was actually quite nervous at that time, but he was usually a person who does not like to show his feelings, and the expression on his face was more rigid and did not show it. In that case, I am afraid that the people who can be calm and calm can only be found in novels, except for great men. Besides, I have never led anyone before, I don't know how to lead at all, and it's okay to come up with ideas, but I'm afraid that I will make a mess of the team. Later, seeing that Wang Kunjun was still a little pushing, Zhang Weixin used the sentence "the minority obeys the majority" to forcibly end the controversy. As a result, Wang Kunjun, the leader of the leading group, took office with some reluctance. ,
After the discussion was over, and it was getting dark, everyone began to divide the work again, and some people started to cook on the fire - in fact, there was nothing to do, that is, they lit a bonfire, and cooked some instant noodles in the pot that was originally intended for the picnic, and the other part set up tents. Fan Wucheng also came back accompanied by You Yuan, and also participated in the work of setting up tents, and it seems that his mood has become normal. Of course, only he knows what he feels in his heart now, and others are really powerless about it. After everyone had eaten and drunk enough, they were already quite tired physically and mentally, and they all went into the tents to rest. But Wang Kunjun couldn't go to sleep yet, so he called Zhang Weixin, Zeng Zhilin, Zhou Lei, and Liang Ziyue, and several people got into a car to discuss how to explore the surrounding area the next day, and how to determine the current geographical location and era. After research, it was finally determined that early the next morning, a pathfinder team composed of Zhang Weixin, Zeng Zhilin, and Wang Feng set off to explore first with a certain amount of supplies, and to understand the surrounding situation as much as possible.
The first night of coming to the strange land passed peacefully in everyone's sleep, and when everyone was woken up by the cheerful cry of the birds, it was already the time of the rising sun the next day. Everyone got up and got ready for the new day. After breakfast, Zhang Weixin and the other three brought the corresponding provisions, and at the same time hid things that were too modern such as watches, so as not to really travel to ancient times and encounter the ancients who were difficult to explain. Then adjust your psychological state, ready to enter the unknown shijie, and pave a way for the group to survive. Although Zeng Zhilin brought a horizontal knife and Wang Feng brought a nunchuck, exploring in this unknown shijie was still full of dangers, and everyone couldn't help but worry about their safety, but they had to let them go. Zuihou In the worried and expectant eyes of everyone, the three of them walked down the cliff and walked towards the unknown shijie.
After coming to the small river at the bottom of the cliff and determining the direction with a compass, the three of them decided to swim along the river, because in this way they can usually walk out of the mountains and forests and into the plains. The mountain trails, though they are all small hills, are not easy to walk, even along the banks of the river. originally thought that with Zhang Weixin following, the three of them didn't want to go fast, and they had to camp halfway when it got dark. But he had to follow, because the two in front of him basically didn't know anything about history, and if they really crossed over and met an ancient, the two of them might not be able to ask the reason from each other's mouths, so Zhang Da History Teacher could only come together. In order to make him walk a little more neatly, Zeng Zhilin also specially selected a branch for him to use as a crutch. But after walking for a long time, the result was much more unexpected than the three of them, Zhang Weixin not only did not fall behind, but he didn't even mention the request to rest, and the crutch was also waved by him as a snake beating stick. To say that Zeng Zhilin and Wang Feng usually exercise, have good physical fitness, and their legs and feet are neat, it is normal for them not to feel difficult to walk, but Teacher Zhang Da, who usually only cares about teaching and educating people and rarely spends time exercising, does not feel much tired. Although the backpack on his body was the lightest among the three, for him in the past, he was afraid that he would have to climb down tired if he couldn't walk two miles on this rugged mountain road, but now he had walked for almost three hours, and he could still maintain a certain speed, which surprised him. The first two practitioners felt even more refreshed and not tired. In Wang Feng's words, he always feels that he has endless energy. The three of them were strange, and they could only think that this was the impact of the strange travel on their bodies. For now, of course, the impact is pleased.
In this way, the three of them walked for six or seven hours, and it was estimated that they had walked for almost ten kilometers, during which they used their hands to contact the team regularly at the beginning - after three or four kilometers, they could not talk normally because of too many obstacles, but they rested for a while near noon and ate something.
At about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them finally walked out of the mountains and into a relatively flat area. Zeng Zhilin raised the telescope and looked forward, and said excitedly: "Look, there seems to be someone not far ahead!" Hearing this, the other two people hurriedly came up, and Zhang Weixin asked anxiously: "Is it a modern person or an ancient person?" After Zeng Zhilin looked at it for a while, he said a little discouraged: "Although I don't have any knowledge of history and can't tell what dynasty it is, I am definitely not a modern person." As he spoke, he handed the telescope to Zhang Weixin.
