Chapter 36 Strategy
I saw that they were eating deliciously, and suddenly I felt that my stomach was empty, and I reached out and took a loaf of bread.
As soon as I got it in my hand, Chen Ran snatched it from me, and he smiled: "Who kicked me just now?" ”
I smiled awkwardly at him and asked tentatively, "Perhaps, have you heard of the true fragrance theorem?" ”
Unexpectedly, my words caused laughter, Chen Ran covered his stomach and stuffed the bread back into my hand, laughing and telling me not to be polite, eat more.
I tried to squeeze a smile into him and said to him in the gentlest way possible, "Get out." ”
After saying that, I didn't care about them, and ate on my own. I ate several loaves of bread in one sitting, and I felt alive. I took a sip of water and burped contentedly.
Seeing that our state had almost adjusted, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and then said with a serious face: "It's already half past four in the morning, and there are still three hours left before half past seven in the morning, we have to hurry up and get things out before dawn." “
I looked at the limited supplies on the ground and asked Master Fu about the follow-up arrangements.
He first sorted everything, then dismantled the armor shovel, and wrapped the handle underneath with a bandage, and I probably knew what the rotten master was going to do.
I looked at the iron rod he was holding in his hand: "Don't bother, that thing is a piece of iron, and the bandages on it won't burn for long." ”
When the rotten master heard this, he stopped the movements in his hands, and he asked, "What's the matter?" How can you get close to a tree without fire. ”
My eyes were rolling around in thought, and suddenly I saw a first aid kit on the floor, which I remembered contained a large bottle of alcohol.
So I had a better idea. I got up and grabbed the spare bottle of alcohol from my first aid kit, and I picked it up and shook it at them, smugly, "That's a good thing." ”
When the rotten master saw it, he patted his head and shook his head: "I saw it when I was treating Chen Ran's wound just now, so I didn't think about it." ”
I guess the original intention of the rotten master was to make a torch to disperse the lemurs. But I now have other ideas.
I thought about it for a long time, but I still said: "I have two ways now, first, someone rushes in, climbs the tree and cuts the branches.
But the only tools we have at our disposal are shovels and daggers, and whether we can break branches is another matter.
The second is to pour the alcohol on the ground and then light it again, which has the limitation that it doesn't burn for long and can't be moved. ”
I looked at everyone's thoughtful expressions and continued: "For now, I only think about this, and if you have other ideas, you can also put them forward and discuss them together." ”
I looked at the rotten master and asked his opinion first. He didn't speak, but walked towards the ancient tree, stopping when he got closer.
He looked up at the ancient tree, and after about thirty seconds, the rotten master withdrew his gaze and walked towards us.
We were still waiting for the rotten master's answer, and he met my gaze and said to me, "Huaizi, the first way is completely unworkable. ”
I raised an eyebrow and motioned for him to continue. Master Fu sat down and said to us, "I just took a general look, and the branches of the trees closest to us are very thick, and they can't be broken in a moment or a half.
And I have time to climb up and get branches, so why don't I just rush in and get my stuff out. ”
I've made two simple strategies based on the current situation, and there will definitely be loopholes, so I don't care about that.
I've already talked about the loophole of the second approach, so now the situation is that a choice has to be made.
I looked at the way everyone was very entangled, adhering to the purpose of cutting through the mess quickly, I glanced at the crowd: "Let's vote!" ”
Before he said to raise his hand, Chen Ran complained to me first: "No, it's so grand, why aren't you voting leaders." ”
I told him that although I thought it was an exaggeration, it was the quickest way to make a decision.
I pretended to be surprised and looked at Chen Ran, raised my eyebrows and asked, "Could it be that you have any good ideas?" ”
As soon as Chen Ran heard it, he knew that I was deliberately choking him, but he didn't deny it immediately, but glanced left and right with his eyes, looking like he was really trying to figure out a way.
During this period, Lao Jiu seemed to be thinking about something, and the rotten master did not express his position, so he fell into an impasse.
Suddenly, the old wine tugged at the military coat on his body and said, "Why do you have clothes!" You can use clothes to start a fire! ”
Hearing this, Fu Ye's eyes lit up, slapped his thigh, and said excitedly: "Yes, why can you wrap the shovel handle with clothes, and then wrap it around with a bandage a few times on the top, and then pour alcohol, isn't it just a moving torch?" ”
I thought about it for a while, this method is the most reliable at the moment, and as long as you get close to the ancient tree, it will be much easier to do later.
As soon as I said it, I immediately took off my coat.
Since it was winter and we were underground, I was still a little uncomfortable when I first took off my clothes, and I always felt a chill down my spine.
When I saw Lao Jiu sneez, I immediately took off my sweater, and when I took it off, I became bare-chested inside.
Lao Jiu saw the short sleeves I was wearing, and refused to wear the sweater I took off for him, but when he saw that the three of us were persuading, he put it on his body as well.
I first learned to wrap my clothes like a rotten master, and when Chen Ran saw that I was cold, he came over and sat back to back with me, and now I was a lot warmer.
We made four "torches" in the fastest time, and I checked them in my hand, and they were quite weighty, so they should still work.
After doing this, the rotten master told us to put away the other things and prepare for the sprint.
I put on my backpack again, lit the "torch", and waited for the rotten master to give the order.
The rotten master checked their respective things, and after seeing that there was nothing missing, he took the first step towards the ancient tree.
The four of us were in a queue, in order not to let those flying lemurs have a chance, but the last one suffered a little.
As a result, Chen Ran was very honored to be the last person.
As soon as we stepped into the range of the ancient tree, the flying lemurs pounced, but they did not dare to get too close because of the torches in our hands.
There were all the sounds of those things in my ears, and because of the previous example, I patted the old wine on the shoulder and leaned into his ear to say watch out for the screams of these things.
Before, because Chen Ran was in the aisle, I was especially afraid that he would be tricked again this time, so I turned my head and tried to remind him, but I saw that there was nothing around Chen Ran.
It stands to reason that he walked at the end and should be in the most dangerous position, but behind him, there were no lemurs around.
I simply turned my head, walked backwards, opened my eyes wide and asked, "Chen Ran, look behind you." ”
Chen Ran immediately showed a frightened expression, and didn't dare to turn his head for a long time: "Brother Huai, don't scare me?" What's behind me? ”
