Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Real Nightmare II

There is the sound of running water in my ears, and I can feel this dazzling light even when I close my eyes! Zhang Chengyuan opened his eyes, the sun hung directly above, and he lay on the embankment. Turquoise water is flowing beneath the levee.

"Young people! Very good. You're the first in your group to fall asleep! "The person who spoke was Principal Yu Tao. At this moment, he was already standing beside Zhang Chengyuan.

Zhang Chengyuan hurriedly got up from the ground, and suddenly found that the five partners in the same group were also lying not far from him.

"Hello Principal Yu!" Zhang Chengyuan greeted loudly, "What's wrong with them...... Also, what about the other groups? ”

"You've gone into the dream, they haven't." Major General Yu said kindly, "But young people, the speed of people's thinking nerves in dreams is twenty times faster than in reality. ”

Zhang Chengyuan savored the meaning of this sentence: "That is to say...... It feels like one minute in reality is equivalent to twenty minutes in a dream. If they fall asleep one minute later, they will fall asleep twenty minutes later, right? ”

"I like smart people." Principal Yu smiled slightly, pointed behind him and said, "The contents of this package are for your group." There is a large supply of supplies at the site of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, and the law here is that the closer you get to the plant, the higher the magnitude of the radiation, and the farther you get from the plant, the more mutated giant rats there are. ”

"What about the other groups?"

"Take the site of the Chenobyl nuclear power plant as the center of the circle, draw a circle with a radius of ten kilometers, and your six groups are arranged clockwise on the sixth part of the circle, and you are the third group, in the direction of four o'clock at the site, understand?"

"Understood!" A map had already appeared in Zhang Chengyuan's mind.

"Good! Remember, the scope of the examination room is a circle with the ruins as the center, and a radius of fifteen kilometers, and you can walk five kilometers further to the periphery at most to reach the end of the dream realm. The first person in each group to enter the dream realm is the leader of the group, and your group depends on you. Someone from the other group woke up and stopped talking. Good luck young man! ”

"Thank you, Headmaster!" Before Zhang Chengyuan finished speaking, Yu Tao had already disappeared out of thin air.

Although he knew that he was in a dream, Zhang Chengyuan was still shocked.

Lifting the black cloth covering the supplies, Zhang Chengyuan began to count the items. Three bows, three long sticks, two sharp knives, a lighter, a bundle of rope, a latitude and longitude numerical indicator, an analogue Geiger-Miller counter, and a medical box.

Zhang Chengyuan opened the medical box and counted the items in the medical box: a roll of bandages, a can of analgesic aerosol, a 30ml bottle of iodine wine, 8 million units of 20 grams of penicillin, and six injections marked with English that Zhang Chengyuan could not understand.

Looking at the contents of the medical box, I gasped, as if asking myself, "Are you ready to get hurt?" ”

He pinched himself, and the pain was no different from when he was awake, and it didn't seem unreal because it was in a dream.

The five companions were still lying on the embankment, and none of them had yet entered the dream. Zhang Chengyuan couldn't help but gaze at Ruan Xiyue silently, the way she was asleep was also so charming.

A gust of wind blew, and Zhang Chengyuan shivered.

"No, I'm taking the exam, I want to be serious!" Zhang Chengyuan scolded himself in his heart.

He stood on the embankment and looked around. The river flows from northwest to southeast, and when you look in the direction of the current, you will reach the mouth of the river in less than a kilometer. And the direction of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is to the northwest.

"In this way, the river water is the thermal cycle wastewater that flows from the nuclear power plant. If you go down the river, it should be a nuclear power plant. "A kilometre away on the northeast bank of the river there is a building, presumably the Chernobyl family quarter, and on the southwest bank of the river there are endless woods.

"En..." Wei Hengyi let out a vague sound, opened his sparse sleepy eyes, and sat up from the embankment. Wei Hengyi was the second of the three groups to wake up.

Zhang Chengyuan relayed Principal Yu's words to him, and Wei Hengyi listened carefully.

After listening to Zhang Chengyuan's narration, Wei Hengyi got up to check the supplies.

"Where's the arrow?" Wei Hengyi asked a key question in the first sentence.

"No ......" Zhang Chengyuan only reacted at this time, there were only bows and no arrows in the supplies.

Wei Hengyi looked at the large woods behind him and said, "Give me a knife, I'll cut some branches, you wait for them here." ”

Wei Hengyi took a knife and left.

Ruan Xiyue exhaled Ruolan, leaned slightly, and sat up from the ground. A pair of clear eyes opened, looking at this dream, and after looking around, she stopped her gaze on Zhang Chengyuan.

Looking at Ruan Xiyue's gaze, Zhang Chengyuan could feel his heart beating more and more violently. After entering middle school, the two have never had such a chance to be alone and look at each other.

But Zhang Chengyuan knew that now was a critical moment, he gritted his teeth, restrained his emotions, and seriously introduced the situation in the dream to Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue listened silently, and her clear eyes always looked at Zhang Chengyuan. When Zhang Chengyuan's voice stopped, Ruan Xiyue also sensed the embarrassment of the atmosphere of the two being alone, she turned her face sideways and stripped her hair and said, "Give me a knife, and I'll also go cut some branches." ”

"No need!" Wei Hengyi came back with a large bundle of branches at this time and said, "It's enough for us to cut for a while." ”

Wei Hengyi and Zhang Chengyuan each took a knife and began to cut branches. Measure the appropriate length, cut it, then split it into a suitable cross-section, and finally round and sharpen it......

"This arrow...... Is it used to shoot giant rats? Ruan Xiyue sat on the side and asked hesitantly.

"En" Zhang Chengyuan said while sharpening, his mouth promised, with the foundation of carving, he made wooden arrows very quickly, and the first arrow in his hand had been rounded.

"Kill what!" Although Wei Hengyi's hand strength is big, he has never cut wood before, so his movements are slower.

"What if...... What about the students in the other groups? We, we can't kill people! Ruan Xiyue finally asked what she was worried about.

"It's okay, it's a dream. Kill people in your dreams, and you don't break the law. "Wei Hengyi's first arrow is not half done, and Zhang Chengyuan on the side has basically completed it and is opening the tail groove.

"Wei Heyi, I'll sharpen the arrow!" Ruan Xiyue took the initiative to ask, "I have learned carving before, so it's faster!" ”

Zhang Chengyuan looked up at Ruan Xiyue suddenly, she mentioned carving for the first time in three years since the middle school reunion.

Ruan Xiyue looked at Zhang Chengyuan's surprised gaze, she smiled, pressed her index finger to her lips, and motioned to Zhang Chengyuan not to speak.

But this action made Zhang Chengyuan's heart flutter.

Although this action silenced him, it was tantamount to admitting the good memories that the two had had.

Wei Heyi handed the knife to Ruan Xiyue in disbelief, Ruan Xiyue took it with a smile and picked up a branch.

Zhang Chengyuan had just finished making the first arrow and picked up a branch.

Both of them held a branch in their left hand and a knife in their right hand with their backhand, turning the blade towards themselves and peeling the bark with swiftness.

Wei Heyi looked at the two of them with some surprise. Not only are the two of them holding the knife exactly the same, but even the angle of the knife, the speed of cutting, and the occasional switching of the knife holding posture, the pattern of turning the knife in their hands is exactly the same.

Zhang Chengyuan looked at Ruan Xiyue with his spare eyes, his heart was surging, he held the knife in the same posture as he held the carving knife back then, and Ruan Xiyue also used the same technique as him, she must have wanted to tell him that she admitted the memories of the two. But why didn't she say it? Why has she been so indifferent to him in the past three years?

Chen Jiatong and Leng Changhe entered the dream realm almost at the same time, and sat up one after the other.

There were only two knives, Zhang Chengyuan and Ruan Xiyue continued to be busy, and Wei Heyi told the two people who had just woken up about the situation.

What made Zhang Chengyuan a little disappointed was that after Leng Changhe woke up, Ruan Xiyue changed her original method and no longer sharpened the arrow with the same gestures as him.

Leng Changhe listened carefully to Wei Hengyi's narration and nodded from time to time.

But Chen Jiatong looked confused, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling.

"Chen Jiatong, did you hear clearly?" Wei Hengyi asked in a deep voice.

Chen Jiatong came back to his senses at this time, nodded slightly and said, "I probably understand."

"What now?" Leng Changhe said, "We can't just sit here and sharpen arrows, where will we go in a while." ”

"Look at the Geiger Miller counter, how much ionizing radiation is here?" Ruan Xiyue suddenly thought of a key question.

Leng Changhe picked up the watch and read: "802.3." Luckily, not as big as expected"

The partners breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps because it is still 5 kilometers away from Chernobyl, the magnitude of the radiation is not high. Geiger Miller counter is the most familiar instrument for the residents of the city, the magnitude of radiation, they will test every day, the lowest time is more than 500, the highest time, more than 5000, even if the average is 2000. The radiation level of 802.3 is really nothing to them, and they have adapted to living under such radiation levels since childhood.

"If that's the case, if the level of radiation in Chernobyl is tolerated, how about we go get supplies?" Wei Heyi proposed.

"Well, there should be food there. When we've sharpened enough arrows, let's go! "Ruan Xiyue is cutting the third branch.

"Why hasn't Situ Shan woken up yet?" Chen Jiatong looked at Situ Shan, who was still lying next to his partner, and said with half concern and half anxiety.

"We'll set off when we've got enough of the arrows, and I can carry her on my back if she doesn't wake up." Wei Hengyi said.

"What are the other groups supposed to be doing now?" Zhang Chengyuan suddenly stopped what he was doing, looked at everyone and asked.

"I guess they're all making arrows." Ruan Xiyue reasoned.

"Geiger Miller counters are available in every group, what do they do when they see the magnitude of the radiation?" Zhang Chengyuan continued to ask.

"I guess I'm going to try to get something at the nuclear power plant, right?" Leng Changhe continued.

"Do they prepare the arrows or take the things first?" Zhang Chengyuan continued to ask.

"If you have any ideas, just say it, you are the team leader, and you usually have a lot of ideas, we listen to you!" Ruan Xiyue said with certainty.

With Ruan Xiyue's words, Zhang Chengyuan almost put a smile on his face, although he was dreaming, he was still very happy.

"If you want to grab supplies, you have to be fast. Since you're grabbing something, not fighting, what if you don't have arrows? When enough arrows are prepared, and the other groups are also ready with arrows, what do you say will happen when you fall down? Zhang Chengyuan paused and continued, "So I want to take a risk and rush over directly to grab the resources." ”
