Film and Television: Starting with Crazy Racing, We Become Stronger Through Hilarious Antics
Chapter 47 Non-combat Attrition
On the vast grassland, Zhang Hui and his companions struggled to move forward.
After the battle at the water source, only six of them remained. To make matters worse, Qi Shuanghu from Class One started having diarrhea shortly after drinking the water.
His condition greatly worried Wu Liuyi; if he continued like this, he would definitely be in danger of dehydration. Without daring to delay, after Qi Shuanghu became too weak, the others took turns supporting him as they walked forward.
They reached a shallow pit, and finally, unable to hold on any longer, they lay down to rest. Wu Liuyi was so exhausted that he was panting and unable to speak.
"We've probably gone more than halfway, right?" A comrade from another regiment asked uncertainly, looking around.
"If we're heading in the right direction, we should be halfway there," Zhang Hui replied to him as he kept watch over the surroundings.
"Why are all the landmarks here the same? I still recommend the 7 o'clock direction." Saying that, he walked over to Wu Liuyi and said, "Come on, let's change the handle."
"This can't go on any longer." After replying, Wu Liuyi continued to Zhang Hui, "He's not going to make it. If this continues, he'll become severely dehydrated, and there won't be any way to save him."
Zhang Hui looked back and felt a pang of reluctance, but there was nothing he could do.
I was just about to use my points to buy him water in the [System Shop] when I saw Xu Sanduo about to open his own rations.
"Xu Sanduo, you'd better save your breath. He's dehydrated, not hungry." Seeing that he was still moving around, Zhang Hui went up and snatched his rations, scolding him, "This little bit of stuff won't save his life! What he needs now is an IV drip to replenish glucose, saline, and electrolytes."
"Don't you know that feeding him haphazardly is killing him? Do you want to kill him because of your good intentions?" After saying that, he threw his food rations into Wu Liuyi's arms. "You take care of it for him for now."
"I don't care, we can't make decisions for him!" Xu Sanduo said stubbornly, and then made a move to grab the rations.
Zhang Hui was so angry he was panting. He couldn't stand Xu Sanduo's inappropriate behavior and pushed him. "Xu Sanduo!! Do you want to kill him? Is this how you say 'never give up'? If he were awake, he would have given up on himself."
The remaining three also knew what to do, but none of them could bring themselves to say it, making this dilemma even more agonizing.
Zhang Hui stared at Wu Liuyi and said to him, "You take your men and go first. I'll fire the signal flare. Although the competition rules state that the medical rescue team won't pursue us, I can't completely trust what Yuan Lang said."
Upon hearing this, Wu Liuyi hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, stood up, and growled, "Let's go! Let's set off!"
Two other people from the other group followed suit. Zhang Hui went over and tugged at Xu Sanduo, cursing in a low voice, "Get out! Get out now!" Only then did Xu Sanduo get up and leave.
Seeing that they had all left, Zhang Hui secretly took out the bottled purified water he had just bought from the [System Shop] and fed it to his child.
He wasn't sure when the ambulance would arrive, nor whether Qi Shuanghu could hold on until then, so he dared not buy any medicine to feed him. He could only use 1 point to buy bottled water, and even then, he only took out one bottle, wasting the rest because he didn't take them out.
After blocking other people's view and feeding the unconscious comrade water, Zhang Hui received a reward.
[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 1 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]
He was only trying to save people, so he didn't really care about the reward. Zhang Hui disassembled his distress flare, placed it next to Qi Shuanghu, glanced at him twice, and then turned and left.
They all lay prone behind a distant embankment, waiting until the smoke from the distress grenades had almost dissipated before they saw the ambulance speeding towards them. Only after Qi Shuanghu was lifted into the ambulance did Wu Liuyi ask Zhang Hui, "You used your own distress grenades?"
"I don't need it!" Zhang Hui said casually. "None of the three of us need it!" After watching Qi Shuanghu being safely taken away, the remaining five continued on their way.
Night soon fell on the grassland.
This time, a disagreement arose regarding the direction of advance. One person in the group firmly believed that it was the 7 o'clock direction, while Xu Sanduo insisted that it was the 4 o'clock direction.
Zhang Hui decided not to embarrass himself by taking out that old-fashioned compass. He knew that Xu Sanduo was a human navigator with an excellent sense of direction.
Finally, Zhang Hui, Xu Sanduo, and Wu Liuyi chose the 4 o'clock direction. The other two soldiers, one together, decided to go in the 7 o'clock direction.
Unsurprisingly, Zhang Hui and Wu Liuyi were taken by Xu Sanduo to the location of the Fifth Squad on the grassland. After stepping onto the road that Xu Sanduo had repaired, Zhang Hui couldn't help but praise him, which made Xu Sanduo feel somewhat flattered.
As the three advanced, they concealed themselves below the steps. Listening to Xue Lin's conversation with his comrades inside the room, Zhang Hui smiled and raised an eyebrow at Wu Liuyi, indicating that they could get a good rest tonight!
After Xue Lin reluctantly entered the barracks, the three continued walking. Zhang Hui asked Xu Sanduo to lead them to the rooftop. He didn't want to spend the night in the kitchen; he was extremely hungry and couldn't resist any temptation.
Finally, the group reached the top floor of the building. Just in case, Zhang Hui had them climb onto the roof using half of the railing, so that even if someone came up, they wouldn't be immediately noticed.
"Only here do I finally feel a little safe!" Zhang Hui said relaxedly, leaning against his backpack and lying on the roof.
Upon hearing his reflections, Wu Liuyi and Xu Sanduo both laughed. Before closing his eyes, Zhang Hui heard the system's voice.
[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 6 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]
Zhang Hui slept soundly for four hours, probably due to the system's cheat code. He was in deep sleep for those four hours, which restored most of his strength.
As for his stomach, he was so hungry that he couldn't feel it anymore.
Hearing that the Fifth Platoon camp was quiet, Zhang Hui judged that it must be around three or four in the morning. Thinking about the end time, he quickly woke up Xu Sanduo and Wu Liuyi, and they set off again.
Walking slowly across the grassland under the moonlight, Zhang Hui, carrying a heavy load and holding a gun, stumbled and fell.
After he fell, he used the momentum to crawl forward a couple of times, peering out to explore the terrain on the other side of the slope. He then saw a small pond, and on the other side was a pine forest.
Zhang Hui excitedly turned around, startling Wu Liuyi and Xu Sanduo, who quickly lay down to hide.
Even knowing the plot would lead them to the location, Zhang Hui couldn't help but get excited when they actually arrived. "We're here! We're here! The stronghold we're looking for is right here!"
Wu Liuyi and Xu Sanduo also quickly crawled forward. After finally finding their destination after much hardship, Wu Liuyi was overjoyed.
Xu Sanduo was a little slow to react, but after climbing up and seeing it with his own eyes, he widened his eyes and grinned, showing his big teeth.
Zhang Hui lay down beside them, saying, "Right? Hill, pond, pine forest!"
"Wu Liuyi, Xu Sanduo, we're about to succeed! The pine forest... our spot is over there in the pine forest. We can't let each other down in these crucial moments!" Zhang Hui continued to encourage them excitedly.
After saying that, they stepped back. They needed to find a suitable observation position, as they couldn't see the target camp from here.
