At this moment, Su Han missed Zhong Rui especially - if the two of them were traveling together, at least they could take turns to rest.
"Hello, is anyone there?" a rough male voice sounded.
Su Han opened the tent helplessly and asked in a bad tone, "What's the matter?"
There were two young men standing outside the tent, one was burly and strong, the other was gentle and refined.
Seeing someone coming out, the gentle one asked, "Hello, do you have any water?"
Su Han had a blank expression on her face. She thought, she didn't plan to open a store to do business, so why did everyone come to her asking for exchange? So she answered, "No."
There was an indescribable disappointment on the gentleman's face.
The burly man immediately started grinning, but said to his companion, "I've told you before, it's useless to negotiate with others in a nice way. Once you get serious, the other party will know how to be afraid."
As he spoke, he glanced at Su Han with a threatening look in his eyes.
Su Han silently took out the Desert Eagle from the warehouse and aimed it at the big man.
The big man's expression suddenly froze. He hadn't expected that the other party actually had a gun in his hand, and it was a Desert Eagle! You know, although the Desert Eagle is very heavy, it is famous for its great power! What if the other party hit him on the forehead...
Although the sun was shining brightly, the big man felt a chill rising in his heart.
"You just said, what will happen if it gets serious?" The gentleman looked at his teammates, feeling so depressed that he didn't want to talk.
The big man: "..."
Isn't it okay that he is wrong? ! !
Su Han held up the gun and asked expressionlessly, "Why did you come here?"
The gentleman glared at his teammate first, signaling him to shut up, and then he slowly said, "We are running low on drinking water, and we hope to find someone to exchange with. I just happened to see a tent here from a distance, so I came over to try my luck."
Su Han was extremely depressed.
Why are these people walking around in broad daylight? How come they don’t even have the most basic common sense of survival! If they don’t walk around, they won’t be able to see the tent!
Did she have to fold up the tent to avoid attracting attention? Su Han felt a little desperate.
The gentleman said cautiously, "I am willing to apologize for my companion's rudeness. Please let us go."
As he spoke, he showed a pained look and took out a palm-sized wooden box from his pocket. "This is the most precious spice I own. Please accept it as a small token of my appreciation."
The weather was hot and humid, and Su Han didn't really want to do anything. She took the wooden box, waved her hand, and said disdainfully, "Hurry up and leave."
The two were overjoyed and ran away in a hurry.
Only after they were quite far away did the big man dare to complain quietly, "Why did you give the spices away? They are so valuable!"
The gentleman glared at her, "Whose fault do you think this is? If it weren't for your bad mouth, how could you have ended up like this? Spices are valuable, but are lives important? Saving a life is already great!"
He scolded him so harshly that his friend was completely stunned.
The big man knew he was in the wrong, so he rubbed his nose and dared not speak again.
On the other side, Su Han looked around at the yellow sand, nothing but sand. Then she glanced at her brand new and conspicuous tent, and suddenly she felt extremely heavy-hearted and couldn't help but sigh.
**
It turns out that if a player can survive to the sixth round of the game, his or her level is still high.
After sending away the two people who were almost killed, no one came to the door for three hours. Su Han breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously - the weather was too hot, she was not in the mood to fight, she just wanted to lie quietly in the tent.
If there were too many fools who loved to walk around during the day, she would have to take down the tent and endure the sun's exposure. Fortunately, the tragedy did not happen in the end.
Su Han drank mineral water in small sips, quietly waiting for the arrival of evening.
As the sun sets, the temperature drops sharply.
Su Han kept an eye on the temperature. When it dropped to around 30℃, she packed up the tent and finally decided to head east.
Walking in the desert is a very despairing thing. No matter where you go or how long you walk, all you see is endless sand.
Su Han even occasionally had an illusion - had she really left her original base? Looking around, she felt that the environment had not changed at all.
After walking for half an hour, Su Han sat on the ground, taking sips of water. After resting for ten minutes, she stood up and continued walking.
As the sky gradually darkened, Su Han took out a piece of firewood as long as his arm from his portable storage, made a torch and continued exploring.
After a while, the sky turned completely dark. The north wind was howling, and the cold wind was mixed with sand! Su Han quickly covered his nose with his hands.
When the strong wind finally stopped, she took out her down jacket and cotton pants from her portable storage, wrapped herself tightly, and continued on her way.
For three days, Su Han moved forward firmly towards the east, but the situation did not change at all. The wind and sand were still so strong that he could not see even a plant along the way. He had to provide everything he ate and drank by himself.
Even though Su Han was determined, she couldn't help but wonder, is it necessary for her to move? Or should she just find a random place to camp and just muddle through for 15 days?
It's no wonder Su Han was hit. It's easy to feel desperate when walking in the desert. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. There's nothing wrong with the direction we're heading, but there's no change no matter how we walk.
Su Han sat down expressionlessly, took a short rest, and thought about life.
At this moment, a panicked female voice sounded, "Is there anyone here? Help!"
Su Han was startled, then quickly realized that there was someone! Alive!
Su Han, who hadn't seen a living creature for two days, was quite excited and walked over in the direction of the sound.
I saw a 25-year-old girl trapped in the quicksand, her legs down had been swallowed up. Her face was full of anxiety and panic, she was almost crying.
Su Han knew that quicksand was sand that had been infiltrated with water. Because the friction between the sand particles was reduced, a semi-liquid, unbearable mixture of sand and water was formed.
"Calm down! Don't move! Let me think of a solution." Su Han quickly started thinking about countermeasures.
However, the girl trapped in the quicksand saw that someone finally came over but did not come to help immediately, so she thought that the other party did not want to interfere at all.
She was terrified, so she struggled desperately and kicked her legs hard, trying to loosen the sand around her by shaking it. But she was sinking faster and the sand soon engulfed her knees.
"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you not to move?" Su Han was quite annoyed. "Moving around will only accelerate the sedimentation of the clay and increase the viscosity of the quicksand. You will sink deeper and deeper!"
The girl was very scared and complained in a crying voice, "You are not going to help, why are you pretending to be worried?"
Su Han was speechless. There was a way to help others. Wasn't she thinking about strategy? She couldn't just focus on helping others and end up not saving the person but getting herself into trouble, right?
"Calm down and listen to me." Su Han took a deep breath and said slowly, "I've read the information. It is said that after falling into quicksand, the trapped person is generally unable to move. Even a strong man would find it difficult to pull someone out of the quicksand in one go."
"That is to say, there is no way to pull you up unless a crane is used."
"So, you have to save yourself."
Then, Su Han slowly said, "Don't struggle violently in the quicksand. Instead, patiently and gently move your feet back and forth to loosen the 'mortar'. This way, the sand won't stick to you."
"Also spread your limbs as far as possible. The larger the surface area of your body in contact with the sand, the greater the buoyancy you will get, and the easier it will be to escape."
"Be patient and be gentle, and you can get out of this situation."
The girl subconsciously did what Su Han said.
Gradually, the sand seemed to loosen.
Su Han showed a look of joy, but heard the trapped girl wailing loudly, "Liar!! There's no way out!"
Su Han, "..."
Didn't you say you should be patient? It's only been a few minutes?
The trapped girl was anxious and scared, and couldn't help struggling. Then the newly loosened sand became more sticky again, and the girl slid down again.
Su Han's face turned cold. She felt that she shouldn't have come here just now. She could only save herself, but this person was looking at her eagerly, expecting her to do something to save him.
"I'll say it one last time. Don't struggle violently. Instead, be patient and gently move your feet back and forth." Su Han's face was full of indifference. He said in a deep voice, "If you fall into quicksand, you can only save yourself. No one else can help you. If you can't get out, it must be your fault."
After saying that, she turned and left without hesitation, never looking back at the trapped person.
The trapped girl looked desperate. Finally someone passed by, but that person did not help her... She was doomed!
Thinking of this, she simply gave up struggling and lay on the quicksand like a corpse, occasionally falling down, just to try her best.
Unexpectedly, half an hour later, she was out of danger.
The trapped girl: "..."
What that person said turned out to be true.
Thinking about how she had just insisted that the other party was cold-blooded and heartless and did not help, the girl's face turned red.
She wanted to thank him, but the person who taught her how to save herself had disappeared in the vast desert.
**
At the same time, Su Han's mood was very mixed.
On the one hand, she saw nothing but sand everywhere, and she wanted to find a real person to chat with. But on the other hand, she felt that there were many strange guys among the players, and it seemed that there was nothing to talk about with them.
With a little distress, Su Han continued to move eastward.
However, after walking for twenty minutes, she was surprised to find several cacti not far away!
Finding a cactus in the desert is actually equivalent to finding clean water resources. So Su Han didn't care about anything else and hurried over.
If you look closely, you will see that the cactus has thorns as long as fingers, which looks quite scary.
But Su Han was not afraid at all. She took out her Tang sword, cleaved the upper part of the cactus skillfully, and ate the tender and juicy stem meat to quench her thirst and satisfy her hunger.
After a hearty meal, she dug up some more stem meat to take with her and continued on her journey.
Looking at the golden desert, Su Han suddenly felt a sense of desolation. She always felt that the possibility of meeting friends in this game was zero...
