Chapter 42 Getting Out of Trouble
In order to improve efficiency, after Zhang Xiaofan dug out the soil, he pushed the soil behind him with his hands and feet, and the people behind him were loading the soil into the backpack, and then the people outside pulled it out with ropes.
Maybe it was because of the relationship with Longbao, Zhang Xiaofan felt that he had inexhaustible strength all over his body, and kept digging forward, and a large amount of soil quickly piled up behind him, even if he kept changing people behind him, he couldn't keep up with Zhang Xiaofan's speed.
As he continued to dig forward, the soil dug out by Zhang Xiaofan became more and more wet, and even water droplets gradually seeped out.
There are more and more water droplets, gradually turning into a stream, Zhang Xiaofan digging more and more easily, he only needs to mix the dug soil and water a little to become muddy, and then push back with his hand and kick it behind him.
This time it was hard for the people behind him, he couldn't shovel it with a shovel, he couldn't hold it with his hands, and finally he simply scooped it up with his hat and put it in his backpack.
As we dug forward, the excavated soil gathered more and more, and the space became narrower and narrower, and the drainage canal after two collapses was already low on oxygen, but even less.
Zhang Xiaofan also felt that he was getting more and more out of breath, but the instinct to survive made him still grit his teeth and persevere.
The movement behind him became smaller and smaller, until it disappeared completely, and now Zhang Xiaofan couldn't care about these at all, and still dug forward with all his might, he was now half of his body in the mud, like a mud monkey.
The mud behind him had gradually filled the back, and Zhang Xiaofan was now huddled in a small tunnel, the accumulated rainwater emitting a disgusting stench. It makes the already scarce oxygen smell even worse.
became more and more out of breath, Zhang Xiaofan's consciousness became more and more confused, and his instinct to survive made him not stop, still digging mechanically.
Just before Zhang Xiaofan's consciousness fell into silence completely, he only felt that his front was suddenly empty, and then a cold river hit, and finally he seemed to faintly hear a cry of surprise behind him, and he completely fainted.
Zhang Xiaofan woke up again and was about to stand up in the car he was driving when he heard a sound of surprise; "You're awake!"
Then Zhang Xiaofan was helped up, and after being poured a large bowl of water first, Zhang Xiaofan had the energy to look at the people around him.
He was now in a moving armored car. Zhang Xiaofan was lying flat in the center of the vehicle, and there were two soldiers sitting next to him and Jiang Xiaobai.
It was Hu Guoting's female assistant who helped her up, Zhang Xiaofan remembered that her surname seemed to be Xu, a middle-aged man in his thirties, and when he got up, he saw Jiang Xiaobai sitting opposite him excitedly.
Jiang Xiaobai said; "Brother Xiaofan, you are too amazing, I didn't expect the last person to dig through the tunnel!"
From Jiang Xiaobai's babbling words, Zhang Xiaofan realized that he had finally dug the drainage canal at the last moment, and the rainwater accumulated on the other side of the canal slanted to almost fill the entire cave.
The suffocating man in the cave was stirred up by the icy rain, and he also came to his senses. After that, things were simple, everyone crawled out of the mud-covered cave one by one, and brought Zhang Xiaofan out with him when they saw him in a coma.
After getting out of the cave, they passed through a long drainage canal, and everyone waited in the drainage canal until it was dark before they dared to come out, perhaps most of the dinosaurs in the vicinity were attracted to the other side of the drain, they didn't even meet a single dreadmill here, and hurriedly walked outside to find the vehicle, and quickly got into the car and ran away without a trace.
It can be seen from Jiang Xiaobai's excited expression that his admiration for Zhang Xiaofan is beyond words, he said; "Brother Fan, do you know? In the end, you dug five meters, five meters! If it weren't for you, we'd all die in it. β
Zhang Xiaofan had finally fallen into a semi-comatose state, and he couldn't remember many things clearly, but from the admiring expressions of others, it could be seen that Jiang Xiaobai's words were almost the same even if there was moisture.
Seeing the blanket on his body, Zhang Xiaofan realized that he was naked and was confused, Jiang Xiaobai said again: "Don't look at it, we took off your clothes for you, your clothes have already become mud, I can't wear them, I threw them for you." β
Listening to Jiang Xiaobai's babbling words, Zhang Xiaofan felt a little tired, turned over and fell asleep.
When they woke up again, it was already dawn, and the vehicle had already traveled more than half the way, and it had come to the range of their regular activities.
The crops have long been harvested, and the newly planted corn seedlings have grown green shoots, so it is relatively safe. The vehicle stopped to cook, in order to rescue these experts, everyone has been eating compressed food for the past few days, and now most of the task has been completed, if conditions allow, Zhang Xiaofan does not mind that everyone eats better.
Because Changchang has to act in the field, so there are field ingredients in the car, and there is no shortage of various condiments, first take out a simple cooking utensils and set them up, light the fire, and then set up a large pot to heat up the various cans brought from the base, and then find some wild vegetables from the field next to them to make a soup, and after a while, a hearty meal will be ready.
Eating steaming canned pork belly and taking a sip of wild vegetable soup from time to time, Mo Guoting let out a satisfied moan, compared with yesterday, he could lose his life at any time, Mo Guoti felt like a world away.
Jiang Xiaobai ate two canned pork belly in a row, and after drinking a big bowl of wild vegetable soup, he lay on the ground with a big grin; "It's comfortable, it's so comfortable, I really want to lie here and not leave."
Zhao Weidong, who was sitting on a high place, looked a little funny, he looked around nervously, while eating the things in his hand quickly, perhaps as an evolutionary cause, his meal volume was much larger than that of ordinary people, there were still five empty canned food boxes around him, and he had already drunk two large bowls of wild vegetable soup but still had no intention of stopping.
According to his understanding, this group of people is really crazy, in this situation, this group of people dare to have a picnic outside, they are too bold. However, I saw that the nearby fertile fields were all in order. Without the slightest deserted appearance, Zhao Weidong also had to admire Zhang Xiaofan for being a talent, you must know that even the large-scale cultivation of fertile land in Yanjing City is not very much, and most of the sources of grain also rely on the reserves of the grain depot in advance.
Zhang Xiaofan came to Xu Yuan in a newly changed military uniform, and looking at the woman's gobbling appearance, it could be seen that her life in Yanjing City was not good.
Perhaps seeing Zhang Xiaofan's expression, Xu Yuan said embarrassedly; "I'm smiling, it's been a long time since I've had a full meal."
Zhang Xiaofan said; "It doesn't matter. Even if you eat, we still have no shortage of food, how is the situation in Yanjing City? β
Xu Yuan sighed and said; "What else? That's it! After saying that, he opened the conversation.
It turns out that since' After the northern defense line was breached, Yanjing City, as the heart of Huaxia Kingdom, bore the brunt of the next target of the dinosaur, although Yanjing City has deep walls and tight defenses, and the most elite soldiers of Huaxia are all stationed here, and there is no shortage of all kinds of war materials, but no one can guarantee that there will be no other accidents, under the strong leadership of some high-level people in Huaxia, some of the latest scientific research achievements have been transferred to other places, which is also one of the reasons why Xu Yuan followed Hu Guoting to the Northwest Theater, of course, it is also inseparable from the high-level efforts of other theatersγ
Under the current situation, Huaxia does not support idlers, and those who have lost the ability to work, unless they have military exploits, no one will care about you even if they die on the street. Although Yanjing City is safe for the time being, but for a long time, many materials have already been rationed, Xu Yuan has four old people to feed, two children are waiting to be fed, and her husband has already died on the battlefield, although he is a relatively good scientist, and he also works in a better scientific research institute in Huaxia, but it is also difficult to feed seven people with one person's salary, which is also one of the reasons why she took the initiative to come, after she came here, Yanjing City can get a job, and the Northwest Theater has a subsidy, which is equivalent to one person receiving two wages, It was a great improvement for her embarrassment.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan's heart moved slightly, and he pretended to say casually; "Is it difficult to extract the Evolution Fluid?"
Xu Yuan did not doubt that he was there, and said; "It's not difficult, the most difficult thing about other extraction fluids is that the raw materials are difficult to find, and the recipe is ready-made, as long as there are raw materials. I can do it on my own. β
Zhang Xiaofan's heart involuntarily jumped twice and said; "Would you be willing if I asked you to come and work at my base? Of course, the salary is three times that of what you are now. β
Xu Yuan was pleasantly surprised; "Really?" But immediately the expression of surprise flashed; "We were directly sent to the Northwest Theater by the Huaxia military, and it is not up to us to have the final say."
Zhang Xiaofan said; "As long as you agree, I'll take care of the rest."
Xu Yuan said busily; "I agree, I agree."
In fact, Xu Yuan's promise to Zhang Xiaofan was also well thought out, first of all, Zhang Xiaofan, as the supreme head of the base, was able to take the lead in personally coming to rescue them, and he was at the forefront of everything along the way, whether it was leading them to highlight the encirclement of the dinosaurs, or taking the risk of injecting the evolution liquid, without exception, he rushed to the forefront. Not even for him desperately digging holes in the drains, and now they're already dead there.
As for Zhang Xiaofan's indifference to her, Xu Yuan shook her head with a wry smile, not to mention that Zhang Xiaofan is the supreme commander of a base, and there is naturally no shortage of beauties in the base, just looking at herself as a mother of two children, the heavy pressure of life has long made her no longer beautiful, and her thirties look older than others' forty years old. Even if she fell in love with herself, she had been lonely and widowed for a long time, and she could get Zhang Xiaofan's favor, Xu Yuan couldn't ask for it, so Xu Yuan almost immediately agreed.
