Chapter 11 Descending the Mountain to Observe
Sentimental fart! Nothing has happened yet!
Secretly scolding herself, Mu Feng bit her tongue and took out her mobile phone from her arms, her mobile phone was covered with a waterproof bag.
"Call home?" Yang Haocheng glanced at the mobile phone in Mu Feng's hand, "No signal, don't waste electricity." He shook his head.
"No, it's for timing." They want to know how fast the water level is rising, and timekeeping is essential.
"Take this," Yang Haocheng handed the flashlight to Mu Feng, "I'll make a marker." With that, he snapped a branch from a nearby tree and took a few more steps down the mountain.
He walked to the water's edge, made a mark on a stick, and stuck it at the edge of the water.
"Be careful!" Mu Feng shouted in a low voice.
On the water not far away, the dorsal fin of some creature shook, and I don't know what it is, it should not look small.
Yang Haocheng reflexively jumped back and squinted at the water for a while, "It's okay, it's big, it shouldn't be able to come here." β
Having said that, he didn't dare to hold it up, so he quickly inserted a wooden stick at the water's edge and retreated to Mu Feng's side.
Mu Feng also turned on the timer after reminding him, and the timer had already begun to be timed at this time.
In fact, their method is not accurate, you can measure it roughly, and the error is still quite large.
But they don't do research either, so they don't need to be that precise, and an error of half an hour to an hour doesn't hurt.
Ten minutes later.
"It's been ten minutes, can you check it out?" Mu Feng squatted on the ground, holding his chin with one hand, looking at the wooden stick in the water.
"Well, almost." Yang Haocheng got up.
"Wait a minute," Mu Feng opened his backpack and took out a metal rod about twenty centimeters from it, "Use this to test first." β
She grabbed the middle of the stick, stretched it out to the front, and pressed a button on itβand with a bang, the metal stick extended to both sides, turning into a self-defense stick of about 1.6 meters.
"I'm pretty well prepared." Yang Haocheng raised his eyebrows.
"That~ yes, who told me that I don't know how to do kung fu," Mu Feng took out a metal stick of about the same length from his bag and unscrewed it - it looked like a slightly curved blade inside, "So I have to work a little more on the tools." β
Standing up, she fixed the blade on the side of the previous mechanical stick, and then broke it, and the stick turned into a sickle with a handle six meters long and a fifteen-centimeter-long blade.
"Wow! Now you can buy this kind of thing outside? This time, Yang Haocheng was also a little uncalm, walked in front of Mu Feng in three steps and two steps, and played with the sickle in his hand.
"It's said that it's an outdoor multi-functional self-defense mechanical stick," Mu Feng pointed to the guy in the other party's hand, "I didn't have any hope, I found hundreds of them in the same city!" β
"It may not have been needed before, but now it's worth it." Yang Haocheng turned around, took two steps forward, stopped and used the sickle in his hand to spy near the wooden stick.
"yes, I should have bought more...... There seems to be something in the water! Mu Feng bought two, and he wanted to say that he would buy a few more, but he saw something near the wooden stick and shook it.
"Well, it looks like a jellyfish." Yang Haocheng didn't look back, and stirred back and forth in the water with a sickle, it was indeed a thing that was close to transparent.
"Oooh! Be careful, though, that thing seems to be poisonous. "Mu Feng doesn't understand marine life, so he can only give advice.
"It's okay, I'm wearing protective gloves." After Yang Haocheng made sure that there was nothing else nearby, he walked over and took the wooden stick back.
The two of them measured the mark on it, and it was about ten centimeters.
"Ten minutes and ten centimeters...... Mu Feng looked at the length measured on his mobile phone.
"Sixty centimeters an hour," Yang Haocheng nodded, "Then it's fine, it's only ten meters a day." β
"Hmmm! And maybe the water level won't rise so high, how can this mountain be more than 300 meters, and it's half high. Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone was a lot more relaxed.
"Yes, there are a lot of areas in the city that are below sea level, and it shouldn't rise to us." Yang Haocheng finally let go of half of his heart.
Finally, I don't have to move to the tree in a short time.
"Then ...... Went back? Mu Feng looked up at Yang Haocheng.
"Let's go."
β¦β¦
Maybe it was because he was relieved, or it could be because there was a powerful person around him, and Mu Feng, who was relaxed, instantly felt that the whole person was too tired. It took me half as long to climb to the top of the mountain.
The time was close to seven o'clock, and the patrol team had changed, and it was no longer Mu Feng's team.
Yang Haocheng went back to find his colleagues, while Mu Feng dragged his heavy steps back to the rest place of their team.
The rain is still falling, the sky is still dark, and you can't see your fingers, even if you sweep away part of the haze in your heart, when Mu Feng looks up at the sky, she still can't help but be depressed.
"You're down?" Zhao Yang and Liu Xuan greeted her, shushing and asking for warmth, but also not forgetting to check her body.
"Well, go check the water level." Mu Feng's heart warmed slightly, and he smiled at them.
"How? You okay? Liu Xuan was a little worried.
"It's okay," Mu Feng shook his head and sat down on the stone, "The sea is halfway up the mountain, but it's not a big problem, the rise speed is not fast, it shouldn't reach us." She pulled the mask down and gave them a reassuring smile.
The other three listened and came over as well.
"It's that high, huh?" Lu Yao's face turned pale.
She was already timid, and even if hearing it wouldn't affect them, she still couldn't help but be afraid.
"The tsunami comes up fast, the tide goes down faster, and it should be fine." The taller boy, Zhou Ming, comforted him. I just don't know if it's for Lu Yao or for myself.
"It's already like this, what can I do, wait for rescue." Xu Fan slumped his shoulders.
"What do you want to do so much, and it's only a serious thing to get through now." Zhao Yang patted them on the shoulder.
"Well, let's do it together!" Lu Yao clenched his fists a little awkwardly.
Their relationship...... Seems so much better than last night?
Is it a delusion?
Mu Feng looked at this, and then at that, with a curious expression.
"By the way, Xiao Mu, where are you?" Zhao Yang suddenly asked Mu Feng, "We all chatted after we came back from the patrol this morning: Brother Liu is from Kyoto, I am from Qizhou, Lu Yao's sister is from Huacheng, Brother Zhou is from Jiangcheng, and Brother Xu is from Shancheng." β
"Huh? I'm from the Great Northwest. Mu Feng looked at the others and smiled wryly.
"Western Regions...... It's far away! Everyone opened their mouths widely, "No wonder your facial features are more three-dimensional than ours." Then they all looked at Mu Feng at the same time.
At this time, Mu Feng's mask was on his chin, and he showed his face in front of them for the first time.
"The family seems to have different ethnic origins." Mu Feng doesn't hide it, there's nothing to say.
"No wonder." Everyone was stunned, and then they all looked at the peaked cap on Mu Feng's head.
"Why, what?" Mu Feng shrank back.
"I'm curious."
"Okay."
Mu Feng took off his hat.
"Huh~ Do you think she looks like that doll in particular, the one that girls play with." Zhao Yang looked at the others, his hands still gesturing.
Liu Xuan: "Barbie? β
Lu Yao: "SD doll? β
"How can it be so exaggerated," Mu Feng looked amused, "It's just that it's not common here, so you think it's special." She shook her head.
Mu Feng is indeed a baby face, coupled with three-dimensional facial features, it is easy to be reminiscent of a porcelain doll, but it is not so exaggerated.
