Catastrophe

Chapter 53: lost heavily

"Buzz!"

Zhang Fang drove the hedgehog car all the way and started sprinting along the canyon. After about five minutes, the car rushed out of the front exit with thick tail smoke.

"Flapping!"

With the roar of the engine, a field of wild ducks, geese, and wild swans rose up in the distance, flying around in fright. The world outside the canyon is no longer a simple Gobi. Although it is still relatively desolate, the grass can already be seen on the ground. , where many sporadic tall plants grow, and many animals such as hares and lizards run away.

"You can slow down! Those snakes won't chase after them!" Ning Zhe was about to vomit in the back, and shouted loudly.

"Squeak!"

Hearing the shouts behind, Zhang Fang glanced through the reverse mirror, and sure enough, he found that the snakes in the back were all gathering at the exit of the canyon and circling constantly, provocatively spitting out snake letters, but they didn't chase them out.

"What's going on? Can't those snakes leave the canyon?" Seeing this scene, Ren Jiao's eyes flashed with curiosity.

"Impossible! If they couldn't leave the canyon, how could the giant python attack us on the broken bridge before!" Zhang Fang's eyes froze, and a fierce gleam appeared in his eyes, he took out his pistol and pointed it at Ning Zhe: "Before you You keep saying, you have never been to this Gobi, but you know that snakes can't leave the canyon! Say! Is this your fault?!"

"Please be smarter! If you hadn't helped bring us out before, we would have been buried in the belly of snakes! If I could control them, why should I run with you? What good would it be for me if you died! Ning Zhe pointed to a plant outside the canyon: "Those plants are a kind of herbal medicine, called wild cassia! This plant, impatiens and aesculus, are the plants that snakes are most afraid of! Also, This is the habitat of geese and wild swans, and the feces of these birds contain a sulfur substance. Once the snakes get on it, they will rot and cannot be recovered. When we first came out, there were many hares here. , if these snakes could come out to hunt, they would be extinct long ago!"

"You continue to lead the way, we must meet the captain and the others!" After listening to Ning Zhe's explanation, Zhang Fang looked at the plants in the distance and the bird droppings on the ground, and put the gun away. He was among the mercenaries and was considered a A person with strong military literacy has been in charge of guarding the management center in the fort before. This is the first time he has left the fort. He really has limited understanding of the outside world.

"The wilderness here is vast, where do you want me to find them?" Ning Zhe was brooding about the fact that Ye Peng abandoned them before, and wished those guys would die in this wilderness sooner.

"Don't forget, before we left the fortress this time, the hostages were kept at the guard post! And if we lost contact with the captain, the situation would be even worse! Our car has run out of fuel, so we have to gather with the large army. , I have a chance to wait for rescue!" Zhang Fang narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ning Zhe: "I know you have a way to lead me to find them, don't force me to do something to you!"

"On your own, it's not necessarily our ability." Ren Jiao dismissed Zhang Fang's threat and spoke with a cold gaze.

"Forget it, no matter what, he is also our savior!" Ning Zhe glanced at Zhang Fang, quickly climbed onto the mast of the hedgehog car, and then pointed his finger in one direction: "The hares on the wasteland are very alert, but they also have courage. It's very small, and it will have a defecation reaction after being frightened. There is a lot of rabbit dung on the ground over there, and the convoy should be heading there!"

"Everyone get in the car, sit tight!" Zhang Fang heard the words and sat in the cockpit.

"Wait!" After Ning Zhe waited for Zhang Fang to sit in the car, he narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Before, my friend shot that hedgehog car in the canyon to protect us all, including you! So I hope you can keep this a secret!"

Zhang Fang snorted coldly and looked sideways at a few people: "Why, after killing people, now you know you're afraid?"

"I'm willing to tell you this because you saved our lives, otherwise, killing you is the safest way for us!" Ning Zhe felt the contempt in Zhang Fang's eyes, and followed suit. Eyes raised: "I know that in the eyes of you people, refugees are inferior, but your contempt is not enough for you to deal with so many of us at the same time!"

"Brother Fang, in fact, my brother and the others are good people. They did this to let everyone survive in Shekou, so you can calm down!" Fatty Li saw the stalemate between the two sides and began to join up to act as a peacemaker.

"Don't worry, I won't say it! There are regulations within the mercenaries. Killing teammates is subject to a military court. I won't make such trouble for myself." If he did, I'm afraid it's already another group of people who came out at this moment. When Fatty Li saw that he was injured before, he also gave him medicine, so he was not disgusted by Fatty Li.

After the two sides decided to hide the matter, the hedgehog car went on the road again. About half an hour later, it arrived near a Populus euphratica forest that had been dry for many years, and saw Ye Peng and their team at the edge of the woods.

"Squeak!"

After Zhang Fang stopped the car, he jumped under the car and saluted Ye Peng: "Captain! We were attacked by a group of snakes in the canyon, and the first and second combat groups were wiped out! The third group I'm the only one alive!"

At this moment, more than half of the twelve people on the mercenary's side have been killed or injured, and Ye Peng and Zhang Fang are left with only four people left.

"Don't say these are useless! Where are the supplies? Did you bring them out?" Before Zhang Fang could finish speaking, Gao Shengrong ran to the side of Ning Zhe's car and found that there was nothing in it. Sitting on the ground: "It's over! It's over now! Our fuel, food, and tents are all gone! Captain Ye, I beg you, ask the fortress for help, let's go back!"

It was only then that Ning Zhe remembered that the hedgehog car that was knocked over by Ren Jiao was also dragged at the back, and it contained the materials of the scientific expedition team.

"Do you think I don't want to go back? I just tried to contact the fortress, but I don't know why, the satellite phone has no signal at all in this place!" Ye Peng shouted irritably, then adjusted his mood and looked at Xie Guangkun: "Professor Xie, now our supplies have been left in the canyon, and the satellite phone has lost the signal. The only way is to continue to complete the task, and at the same time find a place with a signal, and ask the fortress for help!"

"Well, that's all." Xie Guangkun nodded helplessly after hearing Ye Peng's response.

Hearing the conversations of several people, Ning Zhe was a little gloating. Before, these guys always felt that they were superior. Whether it was eating or camping, they had to distinguish the refugees from them. Now their food is gone, and they will be next. when hungry.

Since leaving the fortress, everything that everyone has experienced has completely subverted Ye Peng's perception of outside the fortress, but he still remains calm: "Now our supplies are missing, and there is not much energy left, Zhang Fang, let's go. Take the oil from your car and distribute it into the other two cars!"?
