Chapter 391 I Really Want to Press You Against the Wall
The snake demon stabbed its tongue and agreed, "There's no way Google Maps could have made such a huge mistake. The town is gone... There's no guarantee that the straight-line distance is still 200 kilometers."
The monkey objected vehemently:
"Are we going to walk another 15 kilometers back to the canal? That would waste half a day, and we have no supplies now so we have to find food!
Also, it's too dangerous over there. The salvage operation will take days. They're definitely the ones who are here. They've had supplies stolen from over twenty ships. If we get caught, just imagine their fury. The entire canal is full of their ships. It's even more dangerous for us to go along the river, and there are helicopter patrols constantly. What if we get caught?"
Yes, do we have to go back and walk such a long way just for a possible judgment? Now we are all hungry.
"If we go another 15 kilometers, we can be 100% sure that we will return to Luxor by the original route. But can you guarantee that we will reach Luxor after another 200 kilometers? If we can't reach Luxor after another kilometer, we will be trapped."
Jingshu added, "Lao Yang encountered this exact same situation last year. He had already reached Wucheng but couldn't get through, wasting over a month. Aren't you afraid of being delayed for ten days or half a month again? That would be even more time-consuming than just going back the way you came! And you don't have enough supplies. If you get stuck in the mountains, you might not even survive."
This isn't a pre-apocalyptic survival game with abundant oases and creatures. This is the apocalypse! In the darkness, it's hard to even find an edible bug!
"If we go back, there are no towns around the upper reaches of the canal, and the U.S. is sparsely populated, so it's even more impossible to rob supplies and cars. If we take your route, we will 100% be walking, and we won't meet anyone, rob supplies, or get a car, and we will also be in danger of our lives. It's at least a waste. But if we take this route, even if there may be deviations, there are still six or seven towns ahead, and we will definitely meet people and cars, right? And it's safer." Monkey stood up and argued.
Jingshu narrowed her eyes and looked at the huge mountain. Based on her experience, she was sure that this was at least a horizontal intersection of large plates, which meant that not only would she have to climb the mountain but she would also encounter many dangers.
The great migration at the end of the world, the earth's crust changed the whole world. From Wucheng to Hainan, China, we have encountered such situations countless times. If it were not for the tyrant's divine foresight and decisiveness, it would be impossible for only half of the people to die.
Of course, this is also a lesson learned through blood and tears. Even though she is so powerful now, she is still shrouded in the shadow of this mountain.
After the third year in the apocalypse, it is better to go back than to think about walking through this suddenly appeared mountain. Not only are there many invading dark species, but it is also full of various dangers.
"Then let's split up." Jing Shu licked her lips, took out a bottle of mineral water from her package and gulped it down before continuing, "You guys keep going forward, and I'll go back and walk along the canal. That's it."
The monkey snorted, and while stroking Ah Huang, who was sticking out his tongue from exhaustion, he said, "Then we'll split up into two groups."
Tank dropped the heavy baggage and weapons onto the ground with a clang. "First of all, we're a team and can't act alone. Secondly, this is a mission. Since Lao Yang has split the team into two groups, there can't be a third group. As the temporary captain, I must protect the safety of all of you. Since there's a disagreement, let's vote."
Lingling raised her hand: "I'm standing by Mirror. Mirror has been very accurate in understanding the situation and the danger these days."
Xiao Hei cried and said, "I choose the monkey. I really don't want to walk, my God!"
The snake demon moved closer to Jingshu and said, "I trust the mirror's judgment."
Everyone turned their attention to Tank, who hesitated and said, "As the temporary captain, I must first consider everyone's safety. I have to say that Monkey's suggestion is indeed safer than Mirror's. I support Monkey."
...So it's a draw?
What should I do then?
Jing Shu showed a dangerous look. She clenched her fists and said impatiently, "If that's the case, then let's have a fight. Whoever has the bigger fist will be the boss."
The monkey was so scared that he immediately took two steps back. If he had just boarded the plane that day, he would definitely teach this girl a lesson.
As a human being, but after so many days, he realized that this woman was very capable! She was not just a support, she was simply a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex with an all-round positioning!
Tank coughed. "How about flipping a coin? Anyone object?"
All right, there is no objection to flipping a coin. When no one can convince anyone else, we can only leave it to fate. Only Jingshu frowned. She didn't like to leave it to fate!
The snake demon threw the coin, which spun wildly and then fell to the ground with a bang. Jingshu squinted her eyes and looked carefully. Even if she used all her strength to concentrate, she still couldn't see the front or the back. It seemed that she could only guess.
"Front view." Jingshu said lightly.
The monkey shrugged, "Then I'll do the opposite."
The snake demon moved his hand away, and the light hit the coin, slowly revealing the back of the coin.
Jingshu picked up her luggage and continued to walk forward. The fat chicken had to shake its claws to keep up with Jingshu. The monkey laughed and said, "Let's go, Huang."
The teammates also continued to move forward. This time the plan was to keep going forward, straight to Luxor, carjacking cars if they saw any, robbing people if they saw any, climbing over mountains if they saw any, and not turning back!
Jingshu clenched her fists. She was wrong. If she had shown her immense strength earlier, she could have slapped these cute yet brainless teammates against the wall.
Maybe we shouldn't play coin tossing today and just leave it to fate. She said she would turn back and she would leave, just like a tyrant who said what she meant and didn't go back on her word. Although some people might not accept it and say that she was cruel and undemocratic, they dared not refute her. Anyone who tried to refute her would be rubbed against the wall.
This way you can at least avoid a lot of dangers and make you feel better.
For the last time, Jingshu told herself that from now on she would change her attitude towards things.
Jingshu looked at the mountain, as if she could see the rolling hills behind it. "It's really fate, we can't defeat God's will."
Jingshu and her group went into the mountains. The temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly. Everyone could not help but wrap themselves tightly in their wet clothes and stamp their feet from time to time. Only Jingshu felt a little hot even though she was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket.
The mountain is bare, with a few black dead trees occasionally. Even a quiet cough seems to echo. There are no animals or birds in the mountain, but occasionally one or two creepy cries can be heard.
The road changed from flat and hard land to huge rocks. The group walked for more than an hour, but still felt that they had not entered the mountains, even though the mountains were right in front of them.
