Sitting in the car, Chang Ning could still remember how far he had traveled by feeling at first.
However, they were obviously on guard against his move, as they drove like a drunk driver: sometimes turning left, sometimes turning right.
In the end, Chang Ning was driven around so much that he got motion sick. He couldn't remember this situation, so he could only rush back based on his ability when he got there.
The car drove for who knows how long before it finally stopped.
"Comrade, we've arrived."
"okay!"
Chang Ning pulled off his blindfold and squinted his eyes to adjust to the less dazzling sunlight.
The sun had not yet risen above the horizon when we left, but now it is completely in the sky.
After watching the car leave, the first thing Chang Ning confirmed was where exactly he was sent.
Looking at the endless plains and the continuous mountain peaks in the distance, plus the information revealed in the previous conversation with Captain Li.
Chang Ning guessed that he should have been sent to the Kekexili Nature Reserve in Qinghai. (The actual location is not allowed to be written, so I have to use pinyin)
"No wonder the high school team wanted to equip me with a pistol loaded with live ammunition, so that I could fight with poachers."
The protected area at this point in time is not the same as before Chang Ning crossed. Now is the time when poaching activities are rampant.
"Let's take a step and see."
Chang Ning put his backpack on his back and walked on the wet ground to the creek to scoop out a pot of water.
The water in the stream is crystal clear and there seems to be nothing dirty. In this nature reserve, you are not allowed to eat and drink casually.
For example, this stream looks very clean now, but who can guarantee that there are no dead animals in its upper reaches.
So if you can drink boiled water in the wild, don’t drink raw water, otherwise diarrhea will make you doubt your life.
This place is so out of the way that even if there is an accident, there is no time to rescue.
Breathe the fresh air; look at the breathtaking scenery; listen to the calls of unknown animals. If you ignore the poaching gangs that will appear from nowhere, this place is simply paradise on earth!
"It shouldn't be so unlucky. Those poaching gangs are all going after wild protected animals. It doesn't seem like there are any animals nearby."
Chang Ning comforted himself that he was not afraid of fighting, but he had not yet reached the point where he could face death calmly.
The poaching gang must be a group of people. Captain Li said that this group of people had automatic weapons in their hands. There were no bunkers on the plain. He only had a pistol in his hand.
The combat environment is extremely harsh for Chang Ning. No matter how strong he is, he is still made of flesh and blood, and he will bleed to death if he is attacked by an automatic rifle.
Thinking of this, Chang Ning wanted to give his system a bad review.
Other people's systems make the host not be a human being from the beginning. In a hail of bullets, he can kill seven in and seven out like Zhao Zilong, but his experience bar system requires the host to learn knowledge on his own.
The better thing about the plains than the mountains and forests is that the field of vision is wide. After determining the direction, just move towards the goal. The shortcoming is also obvious, that is, there are very few reference objects.
Chang Ning felt a lot more relieved after knowing that he was in a nature reserve.
Because the high school team asked them to memorize the maps of the world's mainstream countries during previous training, the map of China was a key part of the inspection.
Knowing his position, Chang Ning can rely on the knowledge taught by the high school team in the training camp to return to the armed police border station.
Although Captain Li did not tell Chang Ning the name and location of their outpost, Chang Ning could probably calculate a vague location based on the time it took them to send him to the mission location.
Because the soldier who sent him was a thief and let himself go while driving on the road, Chang Ning was unable to accurately calculate the location of the outpost.
Fortunately, he still has a map. In the original plot, the high school team would "kindly" give everyone in the rookie team A a map, and Chang Ning's place is no exception.
Chang Ning took out the map given to him by the high school team from his pocket. When he opened it, Chang Ning showed an expression as expected.
The map is similar to a child's doodle, but it's not bad, at least it has the direction of the outpost marked on it.
Tan Ren
"Why in the West?"
The outpost marked on the map was to the west of Changning, and the direction he had previously estimated was east.
If the good guy didn't have a map, he wouldn't know where he would end up.
"That soldier is a talent!"
Chang Ning remembered the honest and innocent smile of the soldier who sent him here, and now he remembered it.
That's not honest and innocent, it's simply full of bad intentions.
This man was so shabby that Chang Ning felt that if he didn't communicate with him after returning home, he would be sorry for giving him a lift.
"Let's go on our way, we still have five days to spend here."
Essential elements for survival in the wild: fresh water, food, fire and shelter.
Chang Ning doesn't have to worry about fresh water and food in the nature reserve. A coyote can outrun a rabbit and he can do it with his physical fitness.
Fire and shelter are now an issue, as the area is a haven for wildlife and frequented by large predators.
Without a fire source and shelter, Chang Ning felt that he would turn into an animal's daddy in his sleep at night.
It's spring now, and you can tell from the humidity in the air and land that it's rained recently, making it much more difficult to find combustibles.
He is still on the plains, and if he wants to find shelter, he has to go to the snow-covered mountains in the distance.
If you are lucky, Chang Ning can find an abandoned animal cave somewhere, and you can barely deal with it for a night.
But as the saying goes, looking at the mountains is a dead horse. Looking at the mountains so close, who knows how far away they are.
Chang Ning took inventory of his supplies: a kettle filled with stream water, a bundle of ropes, a tactical dagger, a spare set of clothes, and finally a Type 92 pistol that was kept at the bottom of the box to protect his life.
There was no fire starter, no compressed biscuits. Of course, the high school team wouldn't let him bring these two things, otherwise "wandering in the jungle" would turn into a jungle picnic.
Chang Ning mentally sorted out what he had to accomplish now.
It was still early, so the search for shelter was at the back of the queue. Food is the most important thing for the people, so Chang Ning must get some food to satisfy his hunger.
Food resources are relatively abundant in the reserve, and Chang Ning can also collect combustibles while hunting. Doing both at the same time saves time and improves efficiency.
No matter how good the hunter is, he can't catch the prey without any help. Chang Ning is lucky, he has a dagger and a bundle of rope.
Chang Ning can make a simple trap using the rope and the vegetation resources in the reserve.
The skill of setting traps has been explained to Chang Ning whether in the reconnaissance company or the training camp.
Although Chang Ning is not the best at setting traps in the rookie A team, he can still do it.
As for the effect, only God knows, and he didn't have the chance to practice it in the training camp.
Chang Ning hurried along the west direction, and when passing by a meadow, he took a special look.
I found that there were ravines in some places that seemed to have been pressed down by something for a long time.
In a place like this, those ravines are obviously animal paths passed by some small animals.
Generally speaking, the routes that animals take are fixed, and setting traps on animal paths has a high probability of yielding results.
Chang Ning first cut a small section of the rope with a dagger, and then fixed the branches collected from the bushes to make a small trap. As long as an animal walked through here, it would be caught by the rope.
After doing this, Chang Ning started on the road again. This meadow was not far from the foot of the mountain.
He must find suitable shelter and successfully build a fire before dark.
