Chapter 18: Deserts
"Ten days to survive?" All the children were stunned, although Tob said that it was "simple", but after three months of getting along, everyone already knew what the concept of "simple" he was talking about. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoNo one expected that this assessment would not be the kind of pen and ink exam they remembered, but hands-on practice!
Obviously, if you want to survive for ten days, you must master all four courses of foraging!
Soon, someone figured it out.
As long as there is a water source, the limit of the human body's hunger strike is seven to fifteen days, and if the willpower is extremely tenacious, it is possible to live for a month, that is, they only need to find a way to find a water source, and there is hope to pass!
If you're lucky enough to find a little food, you'll be able to survive 10 days!
Thinking about it makes many children feel more confident.
Du Dian frowned slightly, he was not too optimistic in his heart, with Tobu's style, he would never give such a simple test.
"Come with me, kids." At this time, the 'Chrissy' woman standing next to Tobu said with a smile: "Sister will take you to a fun place, I am sure you will like it." ”
Some of the older boys' eyes lit up when they heard her words.
"Line up." Chrissy smiled and turned to lead the way.
All the children lined up in a long procession, led by Chrissy, and soon came to the side of the school yard, where dozens of large black carriages were parked, each of which was the same as the carriage that had brought Dudian here, and could accommodate seven or eight adults, more than ten if it was a child.
"Let's all get in the car." Chrissy pursed her lips and smiled.
The drivers of these carriages were all young men wearing standard soft armor, including the standard soft armor young man who had brought Du Dian over.
"Dean, come here." Macon greeted Dudian in front of a carriage.
Dudian glanced at it and walked over.
In addition to Macon, the other two children who lived in the same room with him were also in the carriage, and apparently, at Macon's call, they were all gathered together, ready to take care of each other in the next test. After all, the people in the same room are the most trustworthy.
"Hey, the curtains here are all sewn." Macon was about to lift the curtain and look out, and immediately noticed this.
Du Di Anxin suddenly felt a little bad, could it be that the venue for this test was ...... Is it outside the giant wall?
……
……
The carriage shook slightly, the clatter of iron hooves trampling on the ground, Du Dian closed his eyes, silently listened and calculated, it had been twenty minutes since he left the school grounds, and at first he could still hear some passers-by talking from outside the carriage, and then the noise outside gradually quieted down, obviously the carriage galloped into a remote place, and there was silence along the way.
The silence lasted for half an hour, and the speed of the carriage gradually stopped.
After completely stabilizing, Du Dian slowly opened his eyes, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, "Twenty-eight turns, three short stops in the middle, it should be checked, and the route should be ...... west."
He remembered the route he had felt before, and the carriage was very fast, so it was very obvious when he turned a corner, and he could feel whether it was a left or right turn.
If that Chrissy knew what was going on in Dudian's mind at the moment, she would be dumbfounded, although it was not difficult to do this, and if you were careful, other children could do it. However, from the moment they entered the carriage, the psychological oppression caused by the black enclosed environment, as well as the pressure brought by the first test, made all the children full of apprehension and worry in their hearts, how could they still have the heart to calm down and pay attention to these, this is definitely a terrible calm that borders on cruelty!
Most importantly, this calmness appears in a child!
With a click, the carriage was pulled away, and Dudian immediately knew that this time it was not an inspection, but a final destination!
All the children sped down from the carriages, looking eagerly at the place where they were about to survive for ten days, and the next moment, all the children froze.
In front of me, it turned out to be ...... A desert!
That's right, a desert with only grains of sand!!
Survive in the desert for ten days?!
All the kids want to squirt blood.
Dudian jumped down from the carriage and saw this endless hot and dry desert, and couldn't help but sigh deeply, sure enough, the "simple" that Tob said could never be so "simple"!
"Kids!" Chrissy clapped her palms to attract the attention of all the children, and a charming smile appeared on her face, "Next, you are going to survive here, if anyone can't hold on, just draw an X sign on the ground and they will be rescued." Of course, while getting rescued, it also means elimination, and it also means that you must be paid by your own family for special training during this period, I believe that you already know this cost, if you don't want your own family to go bankrupt, just cheer up! ”
Speaking of this, she blinked her eyes and said, "Good luck to you, by the way, this first test is the easiest." With that, he turned and jumped onto a black horse nearly three meters high, this black horse had pure hair, and it was the same breed of horse that Dudian had seen pulling carts for hunters.
Obviously, this also represents Chrissy's identity, most likely a hunter!
Dudian squinted his eyes and watched quietly as Chrissy whipped off her horse, and the rest of the carriages turned around and galloped away in formation, kicking up a cloud of sand and dust that gradually disappeared from the vision of all the children.
For a time, there were only more than 300 children left in this huge desert.
"This, how to live this!"
"This is pure murder!!"
"I knew it wasn't that simple......"
After Chrissy and the others left with the carriage, the children present immediately shouted indignantly.
"Everyone! Everybody! A tall boy with a sturdy physique in the crowd shouted: "We must unite and find the water source first, as long as we find the water source, we will be able to live, and the strength of unity is great!" "Obviously, the kid adapted very quickly.
When the other children heard his words, they stopped complaining, some responded to his words, and some began to think about how to survive in the next ten days, and in the previous three months of special training, everyone learned not to reason with Tobu, because you use your mouth, and the other party uses your fist!
"Dean, let's go with them." Macon told Dudian that since the first day of drying the bed, and in the days that followed, he had become accustomed to consulting Dudian, and that in their room, although he was the most appealing, the most authoritative was undoubtedly Dudian.
"No, the four of us will do it together." Dudian shook his head without thinking.
Macon was stunned and said, "Why? ”
The other two children are also full of puzzlement, unity is powerful, this is the absolute truth, and the content of the course is also: in a bad environment, we must unite to have hope of survival!
However, the prestige that Dudian had built up over the past three months did not immediately question it.
"If there are many people, it is easy to find water, but this is a desert, not a jungle and a swamp, and water is scarce here, and even if it is found, it can only meet the needs of some people, and it will inevitably collapse due to the uneven distribution of resources." Dudian said directly.
Macon and the other two children were stunned and immediately came to their senses.
"Let's go, we've wasted a lot of time." Dudian looked, found a direction, and walked first.
