Chapter 31: The Road to Survival

There were three people lying outside the plane, two from the eighth group and one from the sixth group, and it looked like the two groups had an encounter here, just like they did with the fourth group of Earth Snake Zhang.

All three were out of breath. Despite being mentally prepared, Serenity covered her mouth differently.

After Nie Jianfeng probed the pulse of the three people, he hurriedly pushed open the door of the plane, and was suddenly shocked.

In front of the door of the storage room in the cabin lay the third remaining man of the eighth group, and it looked like the eighth group had been completely wiped out, and the door was empty.

"The supplies are all gone. Nie Jianfeng's tone was full of anger.

Bai Maxiao also opened his mouth in surprise when he saw this scene, "How could they ...... Do you know that they came to us to loot supplies?"

Nie Jianfeng ignored him, because this was also a question in his heart. He approached the corpse in front of the door of the storage room, he knew, this was the leader of the eighth group, then he should have hidden the map that their eighth group had gotten.

After a while, they found the exact same map as they got, but what was different was what was written on the back.

"It's a shame that your group wasn't selected as the lucky group like the first, fifth, seventh and eleventh groups, and now you have to find your own water. After Nie Jianfeng read this, he crumpled it into a ball and threw it on the ground.

"I didn't expect the school to play like this, I completely miscalculated!" Nie Jianfeng said with annoyance, slamming his fist on the cabin wall, and the entire plane seemed to shake.

Originally thinking that the other teams would not know that they had water in their hands and travel lightly, they had a list of lucky groups on their map, which made them foolishly throw the precious water at them.

"Now it seems that the eighth and sixth groups were eyeing this place at the same time, and as a result, the eighth group failed, and the two remaining two people in the sixth group looted the supplies. Nie Jianfeng summed up the current situation and felt that they had completely lost all their original advantages.

Cleverness was mistaken by cleverness, and now they are not only out of supplies, but also a day behind.

"What's next?" Tranquility really wanted to abstain, but maybe it was really the same as Nie Jianfeng said, only winning or dying could it end.

"We had to steal supplies from other groups, otherwise we would have survived for three days without water. Nie Jianfeng behaved calmly, as if it was just a game at the moment, and he was not nervous.

"What if we have water and no food?" Hakumashino asked suddenly.

"There's no point in asking. Tranquility pouted, thinking to herself that this guy couldn't help and was talking so much nonsense.

Nie Jianfeng looked at him with a serious face and replied, "If there is water, you can live for more than a week even if you don't eat." ”

Hakuma Xiao laughed, and it was an exaggerated wicked smile, but he showed more like the lewd smile of seeing the flower girl.

Tranquility instantly understood the meaning of his smile, pointed at him in disbelief, and began to stammer, "You...... Could it be ...... You ......"

Bai Maxiao also wants to sell Guanzi again, brew the emotions of the savior, and vent the unhappiness of being a useless rookie who is always ridiculed. However, Nie Jianfeng didn't give him extra time, snatched the bag behind him, ignored his embarrassed shouting, opened it and saw that it was full of cans of pure water.

Tranquility was overjoyed: "You actually brought all the water out!

Bai Ma Xiao puffed up his chest and said proudly, "I heard you tell me how precious water is, so I brought it out, just in case Captain Nie's guess is wrong, leaving us a way to live." "He said it very chicly, but it was actually an afterthought, he just felt purely safe in the desert with water.

Serenity glanced at him contemptuously, but her opinion of him changed slightly. Nie Jianfeng didn't care about his words, took out the water cans and counted them, and carved a horizontal on each can with a dagger.

"It's not a lot of water, but it's enough for the three of us to live until the end of seven days. Pointing to the one-third reference line that had just been carved on the can, he said, "Three people can only drink one can of water and one-third of the other every day." The white horse is still carried by you. ”

"Is it me backing again? Do you know how heavy it weighs?" Hakumashi immediately complained.

Ning Jing said while putting the canned food back in his bag with Nie Jianfeng, "We are responsible for protection, you are responsible for carrying materials, the division of labor is like this, if you are not satisfied, you can change it." ”

Bai Maxiao didn't speak, he knew that he really couldn't help in this team, and being able to help carry things was already considered to be worth the rest of his life.

Prepare the remaining supplies, it is already sunset and moonrise, Nie Jianfeng decided to stay here today and wait for sunrise before continuing to set off.

Since they had been exposed, the airplane was not safe as a stronghold, so they traveled another kilometer and set up camp in the desert.

It was said that it was camped, but in fact it did not even raise the fire, and each of them put their sleeping bags and rested on the spot.

Nie Jianfeng took out a can of water, "Today is the first day, we only drink one can." As he spoke, he opened the can, took a slight sip and handed it to Tranquility.

"Alternate vigils, two hours each. The first shift was me, then Serenity, Hakuba. ”

"Do you still have to keep vigil?" Bai Maxiao frowned, he had only read novels and TV, and it was his turn for the first time, but he felt very tired when he thought about it, and sat for two hours without sleep in the middle of the night.

"Do you know how many members of the student council are nocturnal animals? Nights are more dangerous than daytime. Nie Jianfeng's unquestionable tone not only gave people a sense of security, but also gave people an invisible sense of oppression, and did not give people a chance to protest at all, "And even if we are lucky enough not to encounter a sneak attack by another group, in the desert, the terrain and climate are very unstable, and we will not know if we are buried in the yellow sand, and we need to have a night watchman watching." ”

Tranquility looked at the can of water that she had received, hesitated for a moment, and gave it to Bai Mashio, "You drink first, and give me the rest." ”

"Then you don't have to drink. Bai Maxiao took it and put on a posture of wanting to drink it all in one go, staring at Tranquility out of the corner of his eye, ready to dodge her attack at any time.

But she didn't seem to mean to attack, as if she acquiesced in his actions. His heart warmed, and he only took a small sip and handed it to her, "I'm done." ”

Tranquility didn't take it, "Drink a little more, and hold on until tomorrow night." ”

"Tomorrow night...... "Hakumashi hesitated and took another sip. The crisp pure water slid through his dry mouth, and the pleasure of the water tempted him to drink it all, but he restrained himself and left the majority for her.

Tranquility took a sip of it, then poured the rest into the palm of her hand, rubbed her hands a few times and wiped it on her face, washing away the blood stains on her face and hands.

Bai Maxiao complained, "Women are really troublesome, and they have to waste water to bathe you." ”

"It's not a bath! Besides, I'm using my own share, you don't care about me!" Tranquility snorted and slipped into her sleeping bag, ignoring him.

Hakuba Shino was bored with himself and got into his sleeping bag. This strange place in the desert is hot to death during the day, but shivering with cold at night, and you have to wear tight clothes and wrap sleeping bags when you sleep, which is like laying on the road in winter.

"Take off your coat and go back to sleep. Nie Jianfeng reminded, "Otherwise, you will catch a cold when you change shifts." ”

It makes sense, take off your clothes and go to bed again, you can put them on again when you get out of the warm quilt, and if you sleep with your clothes on, you can only freeze.

After a day of walking today, so many things happened, and after a while, the two of them fell asleep.

Nie Jianfeng sat not far away, and when he was quiet alone, he habitually reached into the inner pocket of his shirt close to his heart, but he couldn't touch the bracelet. He was a little disappointed - he couldn't bring personal belongings with him when he participated in GSG, and the same was true for the bracelet.

His eyes gradually dimmed, and the thoughts in his heart were more than usual.

I don't know if I'll ever see you again.

But you don't remember me anymore.

If you never get the chance to meet again, you won't be disappointed.

Recalling the past, the first time I met her, her delicate and cowardly appearance deeply touched him, just like him before. Then she gradually changed, brave, decisive, and cheerful, just like he is nowβ€”maybe not cheerful.

However, all this is gone, she will no longer remember him, and she will return to the little girl she used to be, everything is like a dream.

A dream that ended because of Hakuba Shino.

The girl's appearance came to him, and he could feel her pat him on the shoulder as she had done before. He turned his head and saw her long seaweed-like hair and melon seed face like a bright moon, but the next second, she turned into a short-haired baby face.

Nie Jianfeng settled down, only to find that it was tranquility.

"It's time for a shift change. She thought it was strange that when he looked back at her, first the gentle eyes that caused her hormones to explode, then to an indifferent face, and the hormones that exploded instantly turned to cholesterol.

Without too many words, Nie Jianfeng silently entered the sleeping bag.

Tranquility had grown accustomed to his indifference, as if that was what she liked.

But she firmly believes that he must like her.

Remembering the night at the Cat Hotel, it was her happy and unforgettable first night.

She had no doubts.

The cool desert breeze at night was gusting, and although I wore a coat, I was still shivering, and I couldn't help curling up in my knees.

"If only I could make a fire. She thought so, but Nie Jianfeng said that she should pay attention to concealment. She knew that there were many members of the student council who were better at night than during the day, and those who she usually admired were now threatening her life, and she didn't know how to face this change.

The blood on her hands seemed to be washed away, but she knew that the blood had already seeped into her heart through her skin.

The chill hit her, and it wasn't until a coat was draped over her shoulders that it faded slightly.

This familiar smell, she recognized, was Nie Jianfeng's coat, and she was overjoyed in her heart, but when she turned around, she saw a round face.

"Little white horse?" Tranquility's surprised expression stood out with unconcealed disappointment.

Bai Maxiao was very depressed, "Why are you seeing my expression suddenly change like this?"

"No......" Ning Ning lowered her head in embarrassment, and suddenly remembered that her expression seemed to be very similar to Nie Jianfeng just now.

Am I not the person he wants to see?

Such a thought flashed, and for a moment there were mixed feelings, more of a loss, and he said in a strong disguise, "Why didn't you sleep?"

"I'm afraid you're bored. ”

Tranquility smiled slightly, imagining that such words could come out of Nie Jianfeng's mouth...... Shaking his head with a wry smile - he wouldn't say such a thing - at least not to her.

The dark desert, without a trace of firelight, sets off the brightness of the moonlight, under such moonlight, the quiet face is illuminated by the snow white, and the hair blown by the wind beats quietly on the snow white, spontaneously giving birth to an indescribable beauty.

Hakuma looked a little sluggish.

"Why did you stop me when I was leaving today?" asked Tranquility lightly, without her usual vigor or her usual smile, only a melancholy face and a tone that was difficult to capture emotion.

Bai Maxiao thought for a while, "I just think that if I don't stop you, I'll die." It's like ......"

"Autumn snow, is it?" Tranquility sighed, half of her face buried between her knees, "It's better to have someone who likes you than someone you like." ”

Bai Maxiao thought back to this sentence, and when she was figuring out the logical relationship, she suddenly looked at him, "Where I hit you today, does it still hurt?"

Bai Maxiao was not a pampered person, and he had long forgotten the pain at that moment, but it did hurt at the time. He didn't understand why such a petite girl would have so much strength, could it be internal strength?

"It doesn't hurt anymore. However, if she is pregnant and beats someone, the child must also be a violent maniac. Bai Maxiao said thoughtlessly, as if Tranquility's pregnancy was a fact.

"Thank you. The serene smile stunned him, something melted in his heart. "You're not that useless. ”

"That's the best thing you've ever said to me. Hakumason said sincerely.

"Yes? Hopefully not for the last timeβ€”maybe tomorrow we'll all die. She stood up, took off her two coats, handed them to Hakumashio, and rubbed her hands into her sleeping bag as she said it was cold

Suddenly, he felt that his sense of justice exploded, and he had a determination to protect her no matter what, perhaps this is the nature of men.

"You're not going to die, you won't. His tone was full of "I will protect you" promise.

Tranquility didn't look at him, and tightened her sleeping bag, as if she hadn't heard, and had fallen asleep.

Bai Maxiao felt like a fool, judging from her skills, it was more likely that she would protect herself.

Looking at the endless distance, all the things that happened today are vivid, thinking back to the appearance of hugging tranquility today, it can be regarded as a hero saving beauty, and I feel handsome over and over again.

Suddenly, he felt as if something was wrong.

Did he say that he would change shifts with her? She seemed to have just replaced Nie Jianfeng, right?

He turned his head and stared hatefully at the faint snoring that floated from the silence, wondering if she was so sincere when she said "thank you".

Looking at the starry sky, which is clearer and more beautiful than the floating sea, you can almost clearly see the cosmic scene beyond the earth.

They are a point in the vast desert, the desert is a point in the vast earth, but the earth is a point in the vast universe.

However, no matter how small a cell is, it has the right to survive.
