Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Chapter 34 Safety Rules

On the road, boys and girls drove pickup trucks and sang songs, and they drove into a fork in the road, and as far as they could see, there were dirt roads.

Next to the intersection, there is a crude wooden sign with a charcoal reminder that there is a gas station a mile away.

Harry couldn't help but stop at the intersection: "It looks so simple here."

"No way, there's a traffic jam, we can only take the path." Lucy sighed.

"It's not a big problem. It's fun in the forest." Beth laughed.

Cao Gui frowned, the old beautiful countryside deep in the jungle, this is not a good place.

Harry drove the car into a fork in the road, raising smoke and dust all the way, crossing this dirt road, Cao Gui and the others saw dozens of abandoned vehicles lying on the side of the road, including RVs, Vans, sedans, and pickups like them.

As expected of a country on wheels, the United States has the largest number of cars in the world, and the combination of the second and third in the world may not be as many as him.

Not long after, Cao Gui and the others came to a dilapidated gas station. It would be more appropriate to call it a ruin than a gas station.

The house is made of wooden boards, with unknown black traces all over the wooden walls, and all the metal things are rusty. It looks older than Cao Gui's grandfather.

At the door of the dilapidated wooden house, a dirty old man was sitting, with large patches of brown stains on his face, squinting, sitting lazily in front of the door basking in the sun, holding a bottle of pink drink in his hand .

This bottle of drink looks bright, probably the newest thing in this gas station.

"Hey, sir, do you know that this road can return to the highway?" Cao Gui asked while sitting in the car.

The old man raised his eyes and Cao Gui realized that one of his eyes was big and the other was small, and the top tooth was only a poor front tooth, which was hanging alone on his gum.

This old man... is so ugly that it is a bit scary.

Hearing Cao Gui's question, the old man didn't speak, but pointed to the wall next to him.

Seeing this, Cao Gui opened the car door and went to the wall. There was an old map hanging on it. The map was marked in red. A mountain road was exactly the road that Cao Gui had found on the map before. The map is obviously clearer.

Cao Gui picked up his mobile phone and took a picture of the map, but only then did he realize that his mobile phone had lost signal.

Cao Gui's heart sank slightly, all signs showed that they were entering a situation of isolation and helplessness.

"Goodbye, sir, and good health."

Suppressing the strange thoughts in his heart, Cao Gui greeted the old man, and then returned to the car. As long as he didn't encounter the situation of the loom before, he was still confident in handling it.

The little green goblin looked at the new map brought back by Cao Gui, and drove the car dedicatedly. As long as they passed this mountainous area, they could return to the main road.

The music in the car was played again, and the young people embarked on the journey again. The three girls happily took pictures with their cameras. It was the first time for them to come to such a place without their parents.

Behind him, the old man looked at the passing vehicle and muttered to himself:

"Take care, boys, this is not a place to play adventure games..."

...

"Missing person notice... Zizila...a 22-year-old named Ginny... Zila... a climber..."

In the car, the radio was intermittent, sending out a series of electric sounds, and finally completely quiet.

The girls in the back seat have become exhausted at this moment. It's time to start. They are really excited. After all, it is a scene that they have never seen before. But the problem is, once the excitement is over, it will be replaced by a stereotyped scene, which is very boring. .

Especially after entering the forest path named Xiongshan Road, the sight is full of forests, impenetrable, and even the sunlight is scattered, making it very dark and depressing.

Fortunately, there was a dead deer on the side of the road, which somewhat raised their interest.

However, at this moment, there was a few "bang bang bang bang" sounds, as if something had been caught in the wheel, before Cao Gui and the others got out of the car to check.

The front of the Ford Raptor 150 suddenly sank, then shook violently and lost its balance, and then plunged towards the big tree on the side of the road.

"Oh! Shet!"

"what happens?"

"Put on the brakes!"

The little green goblin didn't react slowly. He stepped on the brakes to the bottom, and stopped the car narrowly, without hitting a tree.

The five of Cao Gui got out of the car wobbly, not understanding the situation.

"Damn it, Harry, what happened just now?" Lucy said very dissatisfied.

"It must have been a flat tire," Gwen said.

"Impossible, this car has been modified and the wheels have been strengthened, so it's impossible to blow out the tires." Harry said angrily.

Cao Gui ignored them and walked straight to the front of the car. It was true that the tire was punctured rather than blown out.

There is a circle of barbed wire wrapped around the wheel, and a row of old police studs are deeply pierced into the tires. Obviously, someone did it on purpose.

Seeing Cao Gui walking to the front, several people also followed Cao Gui to check in front of the car. After seeing the culprit, Lucy suddenly became angry:

"Damn it, whose child is such a bastard, he actually put the bumper on the mountain road."

Cao Gui pulled out the studs, which were covered with dust, and the scratches were clearly visible, and even a few gaps were covered with a trace of wheel shavings.

Obviously, this stud has been used many times, and there are not a few vehicles that have been punctured by it.

"Lucy, children shouldn't have let this place go. Besides, there are virgin forests around here. There are no villages or children." Cao Gui said.

Lucy curled her lips, not taking Cao Gui's words to heart.

"It's useless to talk about it, let's talk about what to do now." Beth said.

"Of course it's fixed, what else is there to say?"

Cao Gui dug out tools and two brand new wheel inner tubes, and fixed the front of the car with a jack.

"Harry, help me with my hands and hand over the tools." Cao Gui said, "Girls, you can move around freely, but don't go far, it's not safe here, don't leave our sight."

"OKOK, I listen to you."

Beth didn't care. She had heard the word insecure many times today.

Gwen nodded silently, and she also noticed that something was wrong. It is very unscientific that the police car studs would appear in the wilderness.

Cao Gui ignored Beth and began to change the tires. Before crossing, he had a car himself, so he still knew the basics of car maintenance.

However, since this is the first time I tried it myself, I didn't do it very well. I worked hard for more than half an hour before I barely changed the first tire.

But the girls couldn't wait any longer. At first, they watched Cao Guiwei with great interest, but within a few minutes, they left one after another.

At this age, they are happy to be active or not, and they are not Mikaela. They are not interested in such things as car maintenance.

Before long, Lucy couldn't sit still:

"Guys, I'll go around and I'll be back in a while."

Upon hearing this, Cao Gui suddenly stopped his work: "Wait, Lucy, it's not safe here, don't wander around!"

"Cao, there is no one here, how can it be unsafe." Lucy said dissatisfied: "I have been waiting here for half an hour, it's too boring."

"I'll just go around for a while, and I'll be back in a while."

Cao Gui frowned, he knew he couldn't press it any longer, otherwise, the conflict would really erupt, after thinking about it, Cao Gui said:

"Then Beth or Gwen, which one of you will accompany Lucy for a while, the two of you can chat and help each other together."

Gwen said, "I'll go with Lucy, and I'll be back with Beth later."

She originally wanted to go with the three girls, but Cao Gui and Harry were both busy, so it would be really bad if no one was watching.

Beth muttered a few words, but she didn't object, and she didn't want to fall out with Cao Gui. Besides, it's only a matter of a while, so Gwen and the others are fine.

As he said that, he was about to turn around and leave, but Cao Gui stopped them again: "Put the gun on."

"Take it!" Lucy said impatiently.

"It's not a pistol, it's this." Cao Gui dug out the M4 and the Winchester M1897.

"Cao, you are exaggerating." Lucy was defeated by him: "This is West Virginia, not Africa."

Gwen also smiled helplessly, she also felt that Cao Gui made a big fuss.

"Then change it."

Cao Gui pulled out the flare gun, compass, and walkie-talkie.

"OK, OK, no problem." Seeing this, Lucy and Gwen didn't object anymore, and they took their things and walked along the mountain road.

"Don't worry." Cao Gui stopped them:

"Remember the safety rules: first, two people must be together at all times and cannot be separated."

"receive."

"Second, pay attention to the compass to determine the direction when you go."

"learn!"

"Third, maintain communication at all times, and use walkie-talkies and flares in case of danger."

"OKOK, I listen to you, can we go?" Lucy said impatiently.

Cao Gui nodded, and then gave Beth another walkie-talkie so they could chat, while he continued to change tires.

But what they didn't notice was that the bush swayed slightly, and a small reflection flashed, as if... a pair of eyes were staring at them.
