Several people checked Nice back and forth, inside and out, and found that he did not receive any serious injuries except for a few abrasions, and everyone sat down and rested for a while.

All four of them were sweating profusely, and according to Ness, he accidentally stepped on a piece of soil, and then fell down, and when he fell down, he somehow became head-on, and then he plunged into this piece of bull's skull, and squeezed his jaw to death, and could not speak.

And his hands and legs were also stuck in the cracks in the ground, unable to move, and at the same time, the large amount of debris he brought in when he fell also buried half of himself, Ness has been trying to use his legs and hands to slowly backwards outward, he used his feet and fingers to slowly clasp the soil in the cracks, but it is of no great use, because the space to move is too small.

However, Nice's efforts were not without results, and more than an hour later, his foot accidentally touched a shotgun that had fallen through a crack in the ground. So it took another ten minutes for Ness to squeeze the shotgun to his hand little by little with his foot, and then fired a shot.

After waiting for a long time and not hearing an answer, he estimated that a few people might not have heard the gunshot, so he hesitated to fire the last shot. It was precisely because of the two gunshots that more debris fell from the cracks in the ground, making his range of motion even smaller.

Ness was afraid that the debris would completely block the cracks in the ground, and that he would suffocate in the cracks. So he didn't dare to move much, and just barely survived by adjusting his breathing.

Thankfully, Nice had worked as a sapper before, and he often did some work such as digging trenches or burrows, so he knew the properties of the soil very well, and it was Nice's right choice that allowed him to win time to be rescued.

At this time, it was almost dark, and this was the first time that the three civil engineers watched the sunset on the grassland. Although watching the sunset here is not as exciting as watching the sunset from the sea, it is also unique. At this time, the grassland is like a green sea, and now part of the sun has been blocked by this green ocean, and it seems that after another ten or twenty minutes, the sky will be completely dark.

Because it is easy to encounter some dangers and get lost when walking at night on the grassland, Ness decided to find a nearby place to sleep, so they set their sights on the hill next to a few people.

By the time the four of them had walked up the hill and chosen a sheltered place for camp, it was already completely dark. Camping on the grasslands and the grass is very different from other places, and there are too many dangers in the plains, and the biggest danger is the wild wolf.

"I said, Brother Nice, let's just camp here, and you don't light a fire or anything, what if the wolf comes? I've heard that the most feared thing about wolves is fire, so why don't we have a bunch of them? Yang Lei asked worriedly.

"Don't be afraid, there are no wild wolves around here. As I told you before, it's not for nothing that this is called a place abandoned by the grasslands. Wolves in the steppes have their own territory, and wolves only operate in their territory unless there are special circumstances. This area is also not part of the territory of any wolf pack.

And over the years, the number of wolves on the steppe has been very small. The kind of scene you imagine of hundreds of wild wolves gathering together is usually only seen in the middle of it. Wolves on the steppe are usually a few to a dozen in a group, led by both male and female wolves. Only in winter, when food is scarce, would a few wolves come together, but even then the size of the pack would be no more than forty or fifty individuals.

Ignition is even more undesirable. Although fire is something that wolves are afraid of, flames can also attract wolves at night, so it's good that you don't make a fire, and if you do, it is really possible to attract them. Because wolves are the same as humans, they also have curiosity, and fire will attract more mosquitoes, you don't have to be afraid, our grassland eagles have their own ways to deal with wild wolves. ”

With that, Ness took out a few small cloth bags from the horse's coat and threw them near the men. According to him, the small cloth bags contained black bear feces that he had gotten.

Generally speaking, herders on the grasslands rarely camp in the wild. If, as is the case now, you have to sleep in the wild as a last resort, then this small cloth bag with black bear feces is the best thing to expel the wolves. Wolves are very afraid of bears, and they avoid them when they smell them from afar.

Next, Ness pulled out a small bottle of lotion with a nozzle on it. He sprayed each of them with liquid from a cosmetic bottle and helped them smooth it out, which was said to prevent mosquito bites.

Although several people were tired, no one had any intention of sleeping. First, the ground here is very hard, and it is very uncomfortable for people to lie down, and secondly, the three of them are also a little worried about encountering wolves, although Nice is confident, but as their first time on the grassland, they are still a little afraid. So a few people chatted all over the world.

"Don't say, Brother Nice, this mosquito repellent potion of yours is really easy to use, not only does it not taste at all, it is not as choking as the toilet water, and the effect is really good, until now I have never been bitten by mosquitoes, and I have not even heard mosquitoes buzzing in my ears. Where did you get this mosquito repellent water? I'll go back and I'll have a few bottles. Yang Lei asked.

"In fact, it is not as amazing as you think, this kind of mosquito repellent water is made by myself, not only effective, but also very cheap, just such a bottle may not even need two cents." Ness replied with a smile, his words arousing the interest of several people.

"The secret recipe is very simple, if you hadn't saved my life today, I wouldn't have told you anything. This is actually vitamin B1 mixed with water, after crushing a few tablets of vitamin B1, pour it into the water, and then shake it well, it is this bottle of mosquito repellent water. ”

They chatted like this, sometimes telling jokes, sometimes telling Nice about the ridiculous things they had encountered. Yang Lei wanted to ask Chen Ziyang about those big jars several times, but thinking back to Chen Ziyang's nervous expression during the day, he didn't want to ask more. Everyone said this, and slowly they all fell asleep one after another.

Yang Lei woke up in the middle of the night, and the temperature difference between morning and evening on the grassland was very large, especially at night. Although Nice chose a sheltered place from the wind and at the same time kept warm with sheepskins, it was still cold.

After Yang Lei woke up, he found Chen Ziyang sitting on a stone in the distance, looking up at the sky with a serious face.
