Chapter 318 Desert Exploration and Danger
Richard took out a large package from behind the camel, and when he picked it up, some slight metal collision sounds were heard.
"What is this?" Su Yun raised his eyebrows in surprise, and had a vague guess in his heart.
Sure enough, then he saw Richard open the package, revealing a rolled-up cowhide inside. He pulled the cowhide apart, and rows of black pistols were hung on the cowhide.
"Gun?" Carlos whistled and was surprised.
Facing the surprised expressions of everyone, Richard said, "Yes."
"This is what I prepared specially for you to use for self-defense."
He was also afraid of the pyramids, or there would be dangers on the road. Having a pistol is at least a little safer.
Listening to his words, everyone was surprised and soon calmed down.
Although Egypt prohibits guns, with the ability of boss Richard, it is not a problem to get a gun.
Soon, everyone came forward to take a pistol and a few magazines, even Su Yun was no exception.
He raised the gun and looked around, with a little novelty on his face.
Richard, who was standing by, saw his look and
suddenly realized what was going on. He couldn't help but smile, "Kid, you don't know how to use a gun, do you?" As his voice fell, the people around him stopped checking their guns and looked at Su Yun in surprise. When they noticed his age, they all laughed.
"Kids are just kids." Professor Luca raised his mouth in a good mood.
Geniuses are indeed just normal people. No matter how talented they are, they can't get rid of the limitations of age.
Others thought about it and felt much more comfortable.
Tam, one of the bodyguards, smiled and said, "If you want to learn, I can teach you!"
Others also smiled and spoke.
Among the bodyguards, a man in his thirties named Sean said disdainfully, "You should save your energy. Let me, a sharpshooter, teach him!"
"Humph, do you have the ability to compete?" Someone was immediately dissatisfied.
"Let's compete!" Sean's face was full of confidence. He didn't believe that their gun skills were as good as his.
"Okay!"
After making a decision, they looked at Richard to ask for the employer's opinion.
Richard thought about it and thought it would be a good idea to let them get used to the pistol, so he nodded in agreement.
Everyone stopped at a relatively flat sandy ground. After getting off the camels, the bodyguards tore off a small piece of cloth half the size of a palm.
It was placed 20 meters away and fixed on a small pile of sand dunes.
"Everyone shoots one shot. Whoever hits the first one wins!" Sean said.
Others had no objection.
"I'll go first!" Tam came out excitedly.
Standing in front of the horizontal line drawn on the sand, he held the pistol in his right hand, carefully aimed at the cloth strip, and quickly pressed the trigger.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
Did it hit?
Sand exploded half a meter away from the cloth strip.
A 40-year-old strong man with a full beard laughed, "Haha, Tam, you are really useless, let me do it!"
Kyle pushed the unwilling Tam away and stood in front of the horizontal line himself.
Bang!
As he fired the gun, the smile on his face froze, and sand also splashed from near the cloth strip.
"Ha..." Tam laughed.
"I'll do it..."
As the tests went on one by one, except for Sean who hadn't taken the test yet, everyone else had a Waterloo.
"I'm not used to the gun!" Tam yelled in defense.
"Yes, yes!" The others quickly agreed.
Emma and the others were watching with amusement.
"It's my turn." Sean sneered and strode to the horizontal line.
Tam's bodyguards held their breath and felt a little nervous.
Don't hit it, don't hit it!
Under their gaze, Sean slowly pressed the wrench.
Bang!
With a bang, a small sand dune with a cloth strip in the distance suddenly splashed a stream of sand.
Everyone's face changed, and Sean's face was happy.
But when they walked over and took a closer look, they found that they didn't hit the cloth strip at all, but only shot on the small sand dune, but it was only half a palm away from the cloth strip.
Sean's face fell, and the other seven bodyguards showed joy on their faces.
"Mistake, I will definitely hit it next time!" Sean said unwillingly.
The others suddenly jumped, thinking that if they tried again, they might actually win. Some smart ones were already thinking about how to cancel the competition.
But before the others stopped playing, Carlos suddenly looked at Su Yun and said with a smile, "They have finished their try, do you want to try it, little guy?"
"Me?" Su Yun was slightly stunned.
Hearing this, everyone immediately looked in his direction.
They had just made a fool of themselves, and suddenly felt that they urgently needed a worse person to set off, so they all encouraged, "Come on, it's easy!"
"Yeah, maybe you can hit it with one shot?"
"We believe you!"
These rough guys said with a chuckle.
Su Yun raised his eyebrows. He was not going to participate originally, but since these people were so enthusiastic, he would do as they wished.
"Okay." He smiled and walked straight to the horizontal line.
Emma frowned and hesitated to speak.
Seeing that he agreed, she rolled her eyes at those people, thinking that they were bullying a child.
He walked to the horizontal line.
"Is it really easy?" He hesitated before shooting, as if he hoped that they would give him some courage.
"Yes, it's easy, hurry up!" Hearing his words, the rough men laughed dumbly, with expressions of watching a good show on their faces.
It's not so easy to use a gun, it's not as simple as it sounds, they were just teasing the kid before, this requires a lot of practice.
They thought that when the kid made a fool of himself and made a joke, he would know how difficult it was, haha...
Seeing Su Yun pick up the gun and aim, Kyle teased, "Come on, kid, believe in your gun skills!"
"Haha..."
The others couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, Su Yun pulled the trigger.
Bang!
With a bang, everyone looked over quickly, and then they were stunned the next second.
Whether it was Emma who wanted to comfort Su Yun, or Professor Luca who thought that young people were young people.
Even Tam and his people opened their mouths unconsciously at this moment.
They saw that the bullet did not hit the sand as they thought, but instead hit the cloth strip twenty meters away!
"Haha, I was right, you are so lucky!" Kyle laughed awkwardly, sighing in his heart.
After hearing this, the others came back to their senses and breathed a sigh of relief.
Indeed, compared to becoming a sharpshooter just after picking up a gun, the possibility of being lucky is greater.
"You are very lucky..." Tam smiled and was about to praise.
But before he could finish, a series of gunshots rang out.
Bang bang bang!
Su Yun fired three shots very casually with his superhuman intuition and vision.
Everyone looked at the three consecutive sands that exploded on the cloth strip and suddenly fell silent.
"Fuck!"
"Damn it!"
One exclamation after another, or swear words, came out of Tam and his mouth.
What did they see?
Four consecutive shots hit the cloth strip!
This is incredible!
If the first shot can be explained as good luck, then the remaining three shots all hit, which is not explained by good luck, but...
They looked at Su Yun in shock
, and sighed, "It turns out to be really simple."
Everyone: "..."
The expressions on their faces froze, damn simple, they were just joking before, how could it be really that simple!
"You haven't practiced shooting before?" Kyle couldn't help asking.
"Yeah, you're not kidding us, are you?" Tam shouted.
Four shots hit in a row, except that this kid's shooting skills are amazing, there is no other possibility!
Although they were very unwilling, they had to admit that this kid's shooting skills were definitely better than theirs, and even much better!
"No." Su Yun shook his head and told the truth.
However, others expressed disbelief. How could someone become so powerful the first time he held a gun?
Their reason told them that this was impossible!
Su Yun's mouth twitched slightly, and no one believed it if he told the truth.
He had no choice but to shut up.
After he hit four shots in a row, the others who wanted to use him as a foil tacitly chose to end the competition.
This was already a foil to the green leaf, what was the point of continuing the competition? Wouldn't it be embarrassing?
Carlos shook his head with a smile, walked over and picked up the fixed cloth strip.
He subconsciously looked down at the cloth strip, and then he was stunned.
"Hey, Carlos, what are you doing?" Richard saw that he didn't move, and shouted in confusion.
The others were also confused.
Seeing that he didn't answer, everyone was surprised and walked over.
After seeing him look down at the cloth strip, the others also looked over.
Then, they were also stunned.
On the half-palm-sized cloth strip, a line appeared at this time, a line connected by four holes!
"This is..." They opened their mouths.
They knew what this meant!
Subconsciously, they looked at Su Yun sitting on the camel, their faces full of shock.
This is different from the four consecutive shots they thought before. Although they look the same, idiots know the difference between the two.
This is much more exaggerated than being hit by four bullets in a row! This
shows that the opponent's gun skills have reached the level of mastery, and even the title of sharpshooter is worthy of it!
The evidence is here, and no matter how incredible they feel this time, they have to believe it!
However, what they can't accept the most is that this sharpshooter in their minds is only in his teens...
"Are there really geniuses in this world? The kind favored by God?" Professor Luca couldn't help but doubt himself.
A person who is proficient in ancient Egyptian, has an extraordinary appearance, and now has such a great gun skill, and most importantly, is only in his teens. This is not something that can be achieved by hard work, and only genius is possible!
God favors this kid so much, giving him so many good things?
Professor Luca stared at Su Yun in a daze, and a little jealousy unconsciously arose in his heart.
Everyone got on the camel in silence, and then they immediately talked about it, looking at Su Yun with eyes full of amazement.
Tam controlled the camel and came to Su Yun. After holding it in for a long time, his face became very red, and he said dryly, "I think you should teach me."
Everyone did not laugh at him when they heard it. This kid's gun skills were indeed amazing.
Su Yun had no choice but to tell the truth, "This is really the first time I use a gun. I shoot completely by feeling, and I don't know how to teach you."
Tam and others heard it and expressed their disbelief
. Well, Su Yun had to choose to remain silent.
Time passed quickly.
In the desert, traveling is always a boring thing.
The endless yellow sand, except for a little vegetation, and some animals such as scorpions and lizards, is mostly yellow, which makes people upset.
The sun above their heads became hotter and hotter as they traveled, and the temperature in the desert reached a certain level.
Except for Su Yun, everyone else was sweating and about to take a nap.
As for Su Yun, he actually didn't feel the heat at all, but just to avoid looking different, he had to pretend to be very hot.
He took out a red fruit, ate a few bites, and the juice flowed out instantly.
The sour and sweet taste was like plums, which directly conveyed to his taste buds.
When the others heard the sound, they couldn't help but be speechless for a while, and at the same time they felt a little regretful.
Why didn't they think of it? They should have bought some fruit earlier!
"What kind of fruit is this? Why does it look so strange?" Kyle asked curiously.
Of course, Su Yun couldn't say that this was a divine fruit, so he explained casually, "This is a specialty of Cairo. You haven't seen it before."
Kyle suddenly realized and believed this answer.
"We're almost there!"
Suddenly, Carlos, who had been leading the way in front, showed a look of surprise on his face.
Everyone was startled, and their originally tired spirits were suddenly lifted up and they regained their spirits.
"Be careful, there is a lot of quicksand in this place!" Carlos hurriedly reminded, "Everyone's better get off the camel, otherwise it will be very dangerous!"
"Quicksand?" Everyone was startled.
Carlos explained a little.
They realized that there were many quicksand pits in this place for no apparent reason, and they could fall into them
if they were not careful. Moreover, this quicksand could flow and was not fixed. Maybe there was no quicksand there last time, but this time they would be in trouble!
In other words, even if Carlos knew the way, he had to walk it again carefully.
Everyone looked at the flat sand in front of them, and suddenly felt a little scared. How could they dare to ride on the camels? They got off the ground
quickly. "Boss, where are you going? So dangerous?" James asked in doubt.
"You'll know when you get there." Richard coughed a few times and didn't reveal it.
Tam and the others frowned, but they had to shut up because it was the uncle who paid.
"Should the camel stay here?" Emma suggested.
"No." Carola thought for a while and shook his head, "It may take us a lot of time. There are too many accidents if the camel stays here."
"I'll go in front, and you follow me closely!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a stick that he had prepared long ago and started to lead the way in front.
Carlos would occasionally poke the sand with a stick, and only after confirming that it was not loose would he dare to step on it.
Everyone was a little surprised to see him being so cautious. Generally speaking, if one is mentally prepared for quicksand and knows the method, it should be easy to escape. Why do they have to be so careful?
But soon, they knew the reason.
After only a few steps, Carlos had just stuck the stick into the calm sand, and the next moment a huge change occurred.
Rustle, rustle ~
accompanied by the sound of violent sand flow, everyone was shocked to see that the place sank rapidly, and it collapsed in just a short while!
"My God!"
If someone stepped on it, wouldn't they sink immediately and become a mummy?
What the hell is this place?
