"Okay, we finally met, let's not separate..." Li Wanting replied without thinking, her eyes darkened, and then said: "It's safer for our two teams to merge. You don't know, today
I was already frightened. That gang of bad guys sneaked into our camp. At that time, three of Lao Yang’s men died. Unfortunately, a colleague of mine was also shot to death..."
Ning Xiaofan saw her sad expression and sighed: "Actually, I didn't know about these dangers before I came here. If I had known earlier, I probably wouldn't have come here. And you, you really shouldn't have come here."
Muddy water.
"Yeah, who knew this would happen. I didn't know that these phenomena would happen when entering the sinkhole until I arrived at the base. At that time, we were asked to sign a life-and-death contract. You said, we came even if we didn't go down into the sinkhole.
Fortunately, although it is a bit more dangerous this time, the value of the investigation is quite high..." As Li Wanting spoke, her expression became happy again: "Have you seen the environment here and this giant...
Creatures, this is something you can never see outside..."
Ning Xiaofan saw her happy face and nodded secretly. Even though these experts and scholars were powerless, their spiritual attitude towards scientific research was really admirable.
While thinking, Ning Xiaofan looked apologetic and said: "Teacher Li, there is something I have to tell you. I hope you will be with us personally. As for the others, I have no intention of joining them."
"I hate it, how many times have I told you, I have to call you Sister Ting, even Teacher Li, Teacher Li doesn't mind her..." Li Wanting scolded her at first, then felt that something was wrong: "What did you say? You mean, as long as
Am I staying with you and not bringing anyone else with me?"
Ning Xiaofan smiled bitterly and said, "That's what I mean. Your team leader named Wang has too much arrogance and I can't afford to serve him."
"You're talking about the guy named Wang. Let me tell you, that guy is annoying to death. Just ignore him. Professor Zhao and I have long disliked him. If it weren't for Xin'ao's sponsorship, we wouldn't
I didn't even bother to tell him... Also, you can ignore the guy named Wang, but don't ignore me and Professor Zhao. Lao Yang is also good. In order to protect us, he lost three of his men. If you just
Take me away, I'm sorry
Ning Xiaofan had a slight headache when he heard what she said. Fortunately, he heard what she meant. The guy named Wang was not popular with others. In this case, she didn't need to worry about him. She only needed to take care of Teacher Li and the people she recognized.
.
Ning Xiaofan made a decision, nodded and said: "Let's go and say hello to the people you trust. If you are willing to come with us, just go together. If you don't want to, don't force it."
After hearing his statement, Li Wanting said happily: "Okay, then I'll talk to them later."
"Also, you have to tell them that the road is not safe and they must follow our arrangements. Otherwise, we won't be able to lead this team."
"I know, don't worry, I will make them agree." Li Wanting agreed without any hesitation.
Ning Xiaofan felt very happy when he saw Li Wanting agreeing readily. He was very reasonable, unlike the guy named Wang who wanted to seize the leadership of the team without even being able to distinguish the form.
At this time, Wang Zhipeng, who had been watching with cold eyes, did not expect that Ning Xiaofan actually knew Li Wanting. Seeing the two of them chatting happily, Wang Zhipeng's expression suddenly turned gloomy.
And when Li Wanting contacted several experts and scholars from Jiangnan University, as well as Yang Hai and others, and agreed to follow Ning Xiaofan's team and agree to follow his arrangements, Wang Zhipeng's expression became so dark that he almost cried out.
Full of jealousy.
However, this guy was also quite thick-skinned. Seeing that he could not compete for the dominant position, he would be alone if he persisted, so he quickly found a way out for himself and expressed his willingness to cooperate with Ning Xiaofan to integrate the team.
Ning Xiaofan knew that this guy named Wang was extremely dissatisfied with him, but because he was a member of the Xin'ao Group and could not get things done, he did not expel this guy from the team.
Professor Zhao and others were busy taking pictures of the giant lizard and taking blood samples. It would take a while, so Ning Xiaofan called Lao Wang, Xiao Shanzi and others to join them.
After checking the time, it was already past noon. Ning Xiaofan called Yang Hai and others over, arranged for security, and arranged for Hou San and Chen Biao to go nearby to explore the temporary camp.
Ning Xiaofan still underestimated Professor Zhao and others' obsession with novel things. Several people were studying the giant lizard's body seemingly endlessly. If Ning Xiaofan hadn't couldn't help but urge him, it is estimated that these people
We still have to keep studying this.
Fortunately, Professor Zhao and others were reasonable. After hearing Ning Xiaofan's urging, they knew that this place was not a place for research, so they began to pack up the research equipment without finishing their thoughts.
Hou San and Chen Biao have already found a temporary camp, which is not far from here. While waiting for Professor Zhao and others, Ning Xiaofan has sent Lao Wang and Xiao Shanzi to set up camp in advance. After Ning Xiaofan arrives,
The two teams briefly integrated and when they arrived at the temporary camp, simple tents had been set up and lunch had been cooked.
When they arrived at the temporary camp, Ning Xiaofan realized that they were in big trouble this time. Li Wanting's team encountered a sneak attack in the morning. When everyone fled for their lives, except for the research equipment that Professor Zhao and others regarded as life-threatening, some of them were not lost.
All the logistical supplies were lost in bits and pieces in the campsite. Li Wanting's backpack was also left in the tent.
Li Wanting's team lost its logistical supplies, tents, backpacks and other odds and ends. The problem was that they only brought a small part of the water and rations they carried with them. According to the remaining route and time, they would definitely not be able to make it to the grotto.
What's more, God knows what else will happen that will delay it.
It’s really difficult to deal with this situation. If this team is short of water and food, then they have to squeeze out rations from Ning Xiaofan’s team, and the rations Ning Xiaofan and his team bring are only enough for their own team.
Even if there is a little leftover, it is far from enough to feed the extra mouths.
Otherwise, how about parting ways with this team?
Ning Xiaofan is not an indecisive person. The reality is so cruel. The journey ahead is not ordinary difficult. If he doesn't work hard, he might even get into trouble for his team.
What's more, just when Ning Xiaofan learned about the predicament of Li Wanting's team, Fatty, Hou San and others were all like human beings, so they naturally noticed it. Immediately, Fatty secretly told Ning Xiaofan through the headset that they were going to
Get rid of these burdens.
Of course, no matter how cruel Ning Xiaofan was, he would not leave Li Wanting alone. When Professor Zhao and others were not paying attention, he pulled Li Wanting aside and expressed his thoughts.
"No, no, no, Xiaofan, you can't do this. If you leave Professor Zhao and the others behind, I won't go with you." This time, Li Wanting's attitude was very firm.
Ning Xiaofan had a headache and said with a bitter smile: "My aunt, please be more sensible. Why don't you understand? I've made it very clear to you. If I take Professor Zhao and the others, they will have enough food."
It’s not enough. By then, we’ll have to starve together. I don’t think about myself, but I also have to think about my team members. Besides, the guys under me already know about this situation, and Fatty just informed him secretly.
I won’t allow me to bring those burdens with me anymore.”
Ning Xiaofan was telling the truth. With the character of Fatty and his gang, if he insisted on bringing Professor Zhao and others with him, those guys wouldn't mind abandoning him as the team leader.
"Isn't it just food? Don't worry, we won't waste much food from you. Don't forget what Professor Zhao and the others do. We have discovered a lot of edible things, such as the mushrooms growing here. Although they glow,
But it does not affect consumption..."
"What? The mushrooms here are edible?" Ning Xiaofan was stunned for a moment. Along the way, he actually found some glowing mushrooms. They were nice and beautiful, but he didn't know if they were poisonous or not.
"Of course, there are ferns, and... and meat. After we entered this luminous forest, we also found some small animals, including luminous rabbits, deer, and birds... Not to mention
When talking about whether those small animals are edible, let’s talk about the giant monster. Professor Zhao and his colleagues found through slice analysis that the giant monster’s meat does not contain toxins and is completely edible.”
When Li Wanting said this, she looked directly at Ning Xiaofan with a pair of watery eyes and said: "Xiaofan, there are so many edible things in this glowing forest, are you still worried about being hungry?"
After hearing what she said, Ning Xiaofan touched his chin and said, "If that's the case, I don't have to worry. In this case, you can tell Professor Zhao to collect some mushrooms, which will be useful for lunch later."
"Humph, you want us to try the poison." Li Wanting glared at him angrily.
Ning Xiaofan smiled coquettishly: "It's better to give it a try, otherwise, I won't be able to explain to Fatty and the others...
"Just wait." Li Wanting stamped her feet, turned around and left angrily.
Ning Xiaofan looked at her resentful back and shook his head, with a bitter smile on his lips. Alas, Sister Ting was offended now.
"Xiaofan, didn't you make sense?"
Suddenly, the fat man's words came from behind him. Ning Xiaofan was startled and turned around to see that the fat man had quietly approached him at some point.
How could this guy with such a huge tonnage walk without making a sound? Ning Xiaofan was puzzled and said angrily: "I told you, don't be so sneaky, okay? You're scary, you'll scare people to death."
"Tch, what do you mean by being sneaky? Fatty, I am very sunny." The fat man rolled his little eyes at first, and then said: "Tell me, what are your plans? Can't bear to leave that girl? I'll say it first,
I have no problem with you taking that girl with you, but the others will be exempted. I can't afford it."
