Under the cold moonlight, a figure wearing a pilot's one-piece combat uniform, a leather flight cap and goggles was lying on the top of the dune with a shotgun with a sock on the muzzle, poking at the scene secretly with the help of a telescope.
looked at the pedestrians walking under the sand dunes.
When Wei Ran caught up with Felix and others, they had already buried the gold bricks. At this time, Laon was dragging the paralyzed navigator Maurice with a chair.
A dozen meters behind the two of them, Felix was dragging crucial drinking water and a few cans alone on another long chair. On his shoulder, there was also a submachine gun.
The navigator, the only one who didn't have to go on the road himself, was also busy. From time to time, he would glance at the pointer of the AK39 compass on his wrist. As long as the direction was slightly off, he would signal the Leon, who was used as a camel, to change its direction.
direction.
Felix, who was walking at the end, would glance at the same compass fixed on the cuff of his combat uniform from time to time. However, the direction pointed by the navigator Maurice had been moving unswervingly towards true north.
"This navigator is also a smart man..." On the top of the dune, Wei Ran muttered to himself and put the heavy British compass into his pocket.
It was obvious that if they just kept going north, they would eventually reach the southern shore of the Mediterranean, but that would certainly not be the closest to where they could get help.
The navigator Morris's purpose in doing this is understandable. He is also trying to save his life. He can only go north under his guidance and make a turn when he is about to be parallel to the position where he can get help.
Even while traveling, using his professional skills to subtly shift the direction and finally point to the destination, this may be his only chance to survive.
Who he was guarding against by doing this, the answer is obvious, no matter whether Felix's reappearance saved him or Leon who was about to kill him, this man who had his face covered with a turban from beginning to end, abandoned the plane before it needed to make an emergency landing.
It is an indisputable fact that everyone parachuted to escape alone.
Similarly, because of Felix's appearance, the navigator and Leon, who were originally in an antagonistic state, stood in the same boat.
Now, because Leon's weapons have been confiscated, not only is Leon no longer a threat to Maurice, but he must rely on Morris. And Morris, who is paralyzed in his lower limbs, also lacks mobility and must rely on Leon to survive.
However, the premise of all this is based on the premise that Felix, who makes him wary, is on the side. If Felix is not there, in order to control Leon, he may not even have a chance to rest for a moment before being rescued.
.
Maurice could see this tripartite situation clearly, Laon could see it clearly, and Felix could see it even more clearly.
But at the same time, the three of them also knew that the remaining supplies might not be enough for all of them to get out of this desert together.
"The first one to be abandoned should be Laian, right?" On the cold sand dune, Wei Ran murmured to himself and made a judgment.
Without Laon, the remaining two people can still cooperate. Of course, if Laon wants to replace Felix, he must at least grab enough weapons for confrontation.
But Leon's greed has long been noticed by navigator Maurice. If the former really plans to have more weapons, the latter may choose to form an alliance with Felix in an instant.
"This doesn't seem like a good time to join them."
Wei Ran decided to wait. It was only the first night. If he chose to join the three people at this time, he would probably be cleared out by them in an instant. After all, with not much water and food, he could no longer afford the fourth person.
Appear.
Thinking of this, Wei Ran climbed up carefully, picked up the shotgun beside him, picked up the net bag containing two coconuts and a box of German cans, and hung it on the barrel, like a fake pilot who had run away from home.
, separated by the distance between two sand dunes, Youzaiyouzai and Felix and others continued to move towards the due north at the same speed.
That night, the two parties walked in the desert all night across the continuous sand dunes. It was not until the sun jumped out of the hiding dunes again that Felix and others stopped behind the shadow of a sand dune.
At the same time, Wei Ran, who had deliberately distanced himself from them before the sun rose, also hid behind a sand dune almost a kilometer away.
The reason why he wanted to hide so far away was naturally to prevent the overly cautious Felix from discovering his presence when he used a telescope to check the footprints behind him, and also so that he could rest peacefully and not have a restless night's sleep.
Sure enough, just when Weiyan took off his one-piece flight suit due to the rise in temperature, Felix also borrowed the telescope from Laiang's neck and climbed onto the sand dune where he was staying to start looking around, while Morris used
The submachine gun was pointed at Leon.
"Are you still worried about the man who got stuck in the quicksand?" Leon asked after waiting for Felix to come back and taking the telescope handed to him.
"All food and water supplies are in our hands"
Felix poured a small sip from the cup on the kettle and handed it to the navigator. After the other person drank it, he poured the same amount into his own mouth. Then he tightened the lid and said, "If that
It's okay if a person really falls into quicksand. If he is still alive, he will definitely come and snatch the water and food in order to continue to live."
Leon looked around, but in the end he didn't say anything. He lay down on the soft and cold sand, carefully took a sip of water, and then held the tightly screwed water bottle in his arms.
Of course, Wei Ran, who was one kilometer away, had no intention of robbing Felix and others of their supplies. He was busy opening coconuts at this time.
Tear off the thick coconut skin with your teeth, and then use a screwdriver found in the cleaning bag of the shotgun to open a hole in the coconut shell's Tianling cover. All that's left to do is to lie down on the attached
Enjoy fresh, delicious and sugary coconut juice on your flight suit.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wait until the juice inside is sucked clean, and then use the butt of the shotgun to give the coconut shell a hard blow, so that there is no need to waste the coconut meat inside.
Although there was food and drink in the metal book, and there was even a full 20 liters of cold beer, he didn't know what day it was today, let alone how long it would be until he was captured. In this case, naturally,
Yes, you can save a little bit.
After eating the coconut, Wei Ran climbed onto the sand dune again, and carefully looked at the three figures one kilometer away with the help of a telescope, before he came down and lay down on the one-piece flight suit again.
When he was awakened by the intense heat, the watch on the can box one meter away showed that it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. And half of his body had already been exposed to the sun.
After touching the hot sand around him, Wei Ran yawned and got up, dragging his flight suit into the shadows, then holding the can and watch aside, and then closed his eyes again.
As for the three people one kilometer away, they are not worth paying attention to at this time. Unless they no longer want to live, they will continue to move forward at this time.
However, what Wei Ran didn't know was that Laian, one of the three people, really planned to do something at this time.
However, Morris, who was less than ten meters away from him, leaning on the sand dune and writing and drawing on the sand with his fingers, obviously would not agree, and the submachine gun he had been holding tightly in his hand would not agree even more.
.
Looking at the blue sky without even a cloud above his head, Laian finally had no choice but to close his eyes again.
At seven o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was about to finish its day's work, and the temperature in the desert began to drop. Under Felix's distribution, the three people shared the food in a tin can as equally as possible.
One kilometer away, Wei Ran, after putting away his telescope, also ate the remaining coconut, stuffed most of the relatively intact coconut shell and the tin can into a net bag and tied it to his belt.
"We have nine cans left, which can only last us ten days at most."
After drinking the last sip of soup from the can, Felix asked, "Maurice, at our current speed, can we make it back in ten days?"
“It’s hard”
Morris shook his head, "We are still at least 250 kilometers away from the temporary airport. According to our current forward speed, it will take 15 days at the earliest."
Upon hearing this, Laian was the first to become nervous. There was no doubt that he would be the first to be eliminated given the lack of food and water.
However, Felix didn't look at him at all, but stared at Morris and said, "What if we move straight towards the destination?"
Maurice was stunned for a moment, and seeing that Felix had made his intentions clear, he simply replied with the same frankness, "I also want to go back alive."
"Maurice, what should I do so that you can trust me?" Felix looked directly at the former and asked, "Or should I give you all the weapons I have?"
Navigator Morris took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "Let's continue on our way."
"Then let's continue on our way."
While Felix was speaking, he actually took off the compass from his wrist and put it on Morris's other hand. "I will stay away from you later, Morris. If you also want to survive, just
Let’s take less distance.”
Hearing this, Morris did not give any response, but raised his hand towards Lai, who had already picked up the parachute rope, and pointed in the direction seemingly casually.
Laian opened his mouth, resigned to his fate, pulled the chair and took steps. And at the end, Felix waited until the other party had already walked forty or fifty meters, and then he dragged the chair with supplies and followed him.
.
On the top of a sand dune one kilometer away, Wei Ran put away his binoculars as Felix took a step forward, followed him quietly with the shotgun at hand.
