Live Wilderness Challenge

Chen Xu looked happy, and hurried to the lake.

However, just when he was about to take out the kettle and get water, suddenly, he stopped as if someone had tapped his acupoints.

In this regard, many viewers are a little puzzled:

"Did I get stuck, or Master Xu didn't move?"

"Master Xu won't find anything again, will he?"

"Could it be possible that a herd of hippos is coming this time?"

"23333, why does something happen every time Lord Xu fetches water?"

"Welcome everyone to watch the large-scale African documentary live broadcast: "Those Things About Fetching Water", host: sad reminder Xu!"

Facing the taunting barrage from the audience, Chen Xu looked serious. He pointed to the lake and said, "You are right, there is something wrong with this lake. I wonder if you have seen the ripples on the water?"

Through the telephoto close-up of the drone, many people posted the barrage of "1".

"The rippling ripples are different from the water flow. They emanate from the bottom of the lake, which means that there must be some kind of creature in this lake. Among them, the most common one in Africa is the crocodile!"

Crocodile?

Many viewers were taken aback. For those who have seen the animal world, they have seen the scary scene of animals drinking water being bitten into the water by a crocodile.

2.1 kilometers behind Chen Xu.

After the pickup truck parked nearby, Yuri immediately took people around to confirm the footprints.

"found it!"

Suddenly, Yuri pointed to a large number of fold marks under a rock, "This is definitely left by man, and the marks are very obvious. I think this should be the kid's camp last night!"

"No fire...no trace of food..."

Terrence frowned slightly, "The program team said that he only carried basic survival tools, not food and water. Could it be that he didn't eat last night? Does he still have the strength to run?"

"It's probably because I'm afraid of attracting attention by starting a fire!"

David Bo squinted his eyes and looked at the north, "This kid is very cautious. Of course, it is not ruled out that he eats starchy plants to supplement energy."

"Captain, this footprint is the latest. There are obvious signs of eversion on the soil. It must not exceed an hour. There is also a trace of a poisonous snake at least two meters long around. He should have just fought with a poisonous snake this morning. !"

At this time, Yuri pointed to a footprint again, which was left by Chen Xu and the black mamba chasing each other in the morning.

"black Mamba?"

The corner of David Bo's mouth curled up, "Interesting, since it's less than an hour, it means we're very close, everyone get in the car immediately, and hurry up!"

Chapter 579

beside the lake.

as predicted.

Not long after Chen Xu finished speaking, a pair of eyes slowly floated up from the ripples near the shore.

Although most of its body is still submerged in the water, the audience can still tell from the translucent water that it is a huge dark green crocodile.

It is about three meters long, very fat, with four rows of pimple-like protrusions on its back, a pair of golden animal pupils, cruel and cold-blooded, like a killer waiting for "food" to approach, and then Instant save.

"Fuck, there really are crocodiles!"

"Fortunately, Master Xu saw it. If it was close to the shore, it would probably be bitten down directly."

"Death Gaze!"

"Crocodile: I'll just take a look, don't talk."

The audience could not have imagined that Master Xu could really conclude that the crocodile was discovered with just a single ripple. This kind of awareness is really terrifying!

"It's not the first time I've told you about crocodiles. They are extremely aggressive, and their attack speed is very fast. The instant crawling speed is much higher than that of humans, let alone it is in the water now, attacking and fleeing. , more flexible!"

"We don't need to provoke it just to get water, and the black cobra troops are chasing me now, we can't waste any more time because of a crocodile."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu slowly withdrew from the river, turned around to the northwest along the edge of the lake.

However, after arriving in the north.

He suddenly discovered that in front of him was a large piece of grassland, which was the largest grassland he had seen since he came to Kruger.

Pieces of wild grass, half a person's height, mixed with yellow and green, like hair, grow densely on the ground, and because of the drought, there will be a few open spaces from time to time. If you look down from a high place, you will feel a little "bald". .

Chen Xu grinned, and spat, "It's a shame that you came to such a flat area and escaped here, isn't it a living target!"

"Moreover, every time I run one, it will overwhelm a large amount of weeds and form a very obvious trace. They don't even need to get out of the car to look at it, just drive directly and chase them all the way!"

After turning around for a while, he shook his head and said, "No, I can't just run away like this, I have to find a way to cover up my tracks, otherwise, the other party doesn't even need to send out snipers, just drive the car and use a rifle at the same time, and they can kill me." I swept it down!"

After saying this, Chen Xu ran directly into the grassland.

Now, there is not much time left for him. After yesterday's test, the two sides believe that the anti-poaching force has formulated an updated hunting plan based on his escape style.

Therefore, he must leave the grassland as soon as possible.

"I have a very simple method, which is to run out of a route first, then back up, and then run in the direction of my goal again. An obtuse angle will be formed between the two routes."

"Because the scouts don't know which route is real, or none of them is real, this will bring them a huge fan-shaped search area and spread their hands. This is called anti-tracking, yes One of the land compulsory subjects of the US Navy SEALs!"

Although Chen Xu's skill group was chosen by Huaxia's Siberian Tiger Special Forces, his lv4 escape and escape master represented the world's most advanced escape skills.

Of course, he remembered this little trick of the SEALs very clearly.

After that, he started to run wildly along the northeast direction. After running for about 400 meters, he stopped, then turned his back again, backed up with both feet, and returned the same way.

Many people don't understand why Master Xu ran back backwards.

His explanation is very simple, because the backward direction of the footprints is the same as the direction of the running footprints.

On the contrary, if you don't do this, if the other party finds out that this route is actually running over and back, then the route will naturally become false, and the fan-shaped area will be in vain.

The whole process took Chen Xu about 2 minutes, mainly because the speed of regressing back was much slower.

Afterwards, he changed to an obtuse angle to the northwest, and then let go of his steps and ran away frantically.

After half an hour.

Black Cobra troops tracked down to the lake.

Yuri looked at the footprints on the mud, nodded and said, "It's that kid's, he was here just now!"

"If I remember correctly, there seems to be frequent crocodile ambushes in this lake, right?"

As the captain, David Bo naturally had a detailed understanding of the topographical maps and the general distribution of animals.

"That's right, it's here. However, judging from the footprints, he doesn't seem to have reached the shore, so he shouldn't have clashed with the crocodile."

Because the shore was very wet and the soil was very soft, Yuri just glanced at it, but there were no footprints at all.

"You don't drink water when you see it?"

Terrence raised his eyebrows, and then shook his head, "No, he probably ran away last night before he had time to get much water, so he should be short of water. The reason why he didn't go to the lake, I think he should I found a crocodile in the lake!"

"This kid, the awareness of reconnaissance is too strong. We have to chase it as soon as possible. The further north we go, the denser the animals in the reserve will be. Then the footprints will be hard to find!"

David Bo frowned slightly, and after speaking, everyone continued to follow the footprints left by Chen Xu.

Another 10 minutes passed.

A group of people came to the prairie.

At this time, the sun had already begun to rise, and the dazzling sunlight illuminated the entire grassland goldenly.

"It seems that even God is helping us. Such an open terrain is also the grassland where traces are most likely to be left. As long as we find traces of his escape and drive all the way to chase him, won't it be easy to catch him?"

A member of the poaching unit grinned.

Unexpectedly, Yuri, who went out to look for traces, turned around and came back with an angry expression on his face: "This kid, you are playing tricks again. I found two footprints in total, and the directions are very different, forming an obtuse angle!"

"what?"

David Bo was stunned for a moment, "Can you tell which one is true and which one is false?"

"It's difficult. Although the grass is easy to leave marks, it's the marks of a piece of grass being trampled on. As for the shoe prints, because of the lush grass, the ones left on the mud are not clear."

"Judging from the traces at the scene, the footprints of the two routes belong to that kid, and there is no problem with the orientation!"

Yuri sighed, a little embarrassed.

David Bo clenched his fists, as the team member said just now, if it wasn't for these two routes, they would have caught that kid long ago with such a good terrain!

"Everyone is divided into three ways, two ways to search along the route, and the other way to search in the fan-shaped area to see if there are other clues, I don't believe it, this kid can't do the clone technique!"

"Counter tracking!"

Terrence narrowed his eyes, "This kid belongs to the SEALs?"

Chapter 5 Eighty The real running man!

After everyone searched for five or six minutes, Terrence felt that something was wrong more and more, and finally, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, and he blurted out.

"SEALs?"

Beside, David Po looked at him with some puzzlement after hearing it.

Terrence nodded, "When I served in the South African Special Forces, I once led a team to simulate a land combat with a reconnaissance unit of the US Navy Seals. The location at that time was at the US Army training base, which was a prairie .”

"When we were tracking them, we encountered this kind of situation. By creating multiple false lines and enlarging the area of ​​traces to cover up the real traces, they called it a counter-tracking method. It is a simple and effective method. Counter-reconnaissance technology.”

"Compared to what you said before, the kid's confusing method in the rock area, this counter-tracking is more strategic. He can not only greatly delay our tracking speed, but also disperse our formation."

While talking, he pointed to the team members who were divided into three teams by David Bo, and said with a smile: "At that time, we were broken up by this method, and then we were caught off guard by the sudden attack of the SEALs. Lost the actual combat match."

David Bo frowned slightly. He was born in urban anti-terrorism. He was good at breakthroughs, sieges, and arrests. He didn't know much about field military operations.

"Terence, do you know how to break this kid's anti-tracking?"

"I didn't know it at first, but after losing the game, we exchanged experience with the seal scout team, and he just answered the counter-tracking method on the grassland..."

So Terence reorganized his memories from seven or eight years ago, and then recounted them.

Not to mention, the implementation method he said was not much different from what Chen Xu said!

"So that's it, it's very simple and very clever!"

David Bo suddenly realized that, as expected of the world-renowned special forces, he could think of such a clever method.

So, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Listen, everyone, give up all trace surveys, change the three teams into two teams, and focus on looking for multiple footprints on the two routes, that is, the superposition of footprints!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, Yuri seemed to have a flash of inspiration.

The next moment, he took out a multifunctional compass from his backpack.

This kind of compass is specially assigned to field troops. It is about the size of half a palm and has a metal tape measure inside.

Afterwards, Yuri measured the lengths of Chen Xu's footprints with a tape measure, and after a comprehensive analysis, he shouted: "The length of that kid's shoes is about 280 mm. If it exceeds 50 mm, there is a high possibility of footprints." Stack!"

This sentence helped the whole team a lot.

Everyone took out their tape measures one after another and began to measure the footprints left by Chen Xu on the grassland. Although the specific footprints could not be seen clearly due to the dense weeds, the size of the shoe prints could still be roughly figured out.

2 minute later.

In the direction of the northeast line, a team member suddenly shouted: "I found it. The shoe print is 320 mm long. There are multiple footprints, and this position has been stepped on more than once!"

"It's here too!"

"Report! I also found something here!"

……

The next moment, under the careful search of everyone, many team members on the northeast route found multiple footprints one after another.

"Sure enough, Terrence, you have been of great help this time!"

Da Weibo grinned, and immediately shouted: "The northeast direction is fake. That kid deliberately ran for a while, and then backed up, so there will be a lot of multiple footprints. Everyone, follow me to the northwest direction!"

"Yes!"

Everyone immediately responded with a shout, then followed him and quickly chased towards the northwest.
