Reborn with a Cell Phone 2007

A man was crawling by the Yaochi Lake, wearing the high-altitude cold-proof training uniform that was very familiar to Hidden Wolf and Hidden Owl.

Hidden Wolf put down the telescope and walked over, but halfway through he saw the man suddenly stand up, holding a rifle in his arms, looking at them with vigilant eyes.

The man was wearing a military helmet, with his entire face covered tightly. The only thing exposed was a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle, as if staring at its prey.

Seeing Hidden Wolf approaching step by step, the man turned the gun and pointed it at him.

Hidden Wolf quickly raised his hands to prove that he had no ill intentions: "We are one people, we are one people, brother, are you left behind? Do you need help?"

Before Hidden Wolf could finish his words, the man turned around and ran away. Hidden Wolf chased him for a distance, but saw that the man was getting farther and farther away, and his figure disappeared into the wilderness. So he had to return empty-handed.

Yin Xiao laughed at him: "There are people you, Brother Wolf, can't catch up with. Are you lacking exercise recently?"

Hidden Wolf shrugged calmly: "There are always people better than you. The army produces many talented people every year. It's nothing strange."

No one took this little episode seriously. Yin Xiao guessed that the soldier was a new recruit who had fallen behind in special training and was refusing to let them help because he wanted to save face.

"It's common that every year there are one or two troublemakers among the new recruits who do stupid things that shock the entire armed forces, and then become historical material for education for every subsequent class. At that time, there was an idiot in our company..." Yin Xiao drove the car and picked out interesting military stories that were not confidential to tell them.

Yinlang, who had been on guard for the second half of the night, leaned on the co-pilot seat to catch up on his sleep, while Ji Shumiao and the other two listened with great interest.

After a day's journey, they were no longer as excited as they were at the beginning and had become much calmer.

The off-road vehicle crossed a 5,000-meter pass and entered the most difficult section of Death Valley. The altitude was decreasing, but there was no road at all.

Yinlang had woken up a long time ago and took turns driving with Yinxiao. Yinxiao sat in the passenger seat to help observe the road conditions and was no longer as relaxed and happy as he had been at the beginning.

They groped their way forward in the deep valley along the riverbed washed by the Nalingler River. During the journey, they changed tires three times as all of them were punctured by sharp stones.

The road ahead is uncertain, and carcasses of wild wolves and various animals can be seen everywhere along the way.

It was during this bumpy journey that Ji Shumiao fell asleep leaning on Lang Ge's shoulder.

She was dreaming again, but she didn't dream of whales. Instead, she dreamed of a group of tall, hunched-backed figures standing in front of her.

bang——

The SUV suddenly stopped, Ji Shumiao was awakened, and grabbed Lang Ge's sleeve in panic.

"It's okay, it's just a flat tire." Brother Lang patted her hand to comfort her.

Fortunately, they brought enough spare tires. Langge and Xiaoyu got out of the car to help change the tires, and Ji Shumiao also got out of the car to take a breath.

The scene before him was no longer a deep valley, but an endless wasteland. Ji Shumiao gazed at the distant skyline, and a strong sense of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart.

"Are you scared?" Yin Xiao asked with concern, "I see you didn't get enough rest. Your complexion is much worse than yesterday."

Ji Shumiao shook his head, thought about it and nodded: "A little bit."

"It's okay. We are only 300 kilometers away from Mangya City. What can happen?" Yin Xiao smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm here."

"Sister, please be close to me." Ji Shumiao imitated Tongtong and hugged Yinxiao's arm tightly, "Sister is so awesome~ How can I be as awesome as you~"

"Don't give me that." Yin Xiao said this, but the expression on his face clearly showed that he bought it.

After changing the tire, they set off again.

This time Ji Shumiao didn't sleep. He took Xiaoyu's SLR to look at the photos he had taken in the past two days. When he saw the most recent photo, Ji Shumiao paused - it was exactly the same as the scenery outside the window at this moment.

But this photo was taken an hour ago.

They got lost.

Ji Shumiao glanced at Yinlang in the driver's seat calmly. The two people sitting in the front row discovered the problem earlier than her. Their navigation had failed.

The two looked at each other and tacitly chose not to tell them. Yin Xiao secretly took out a compass to check, only to find that the compass needle was spinning wildly.

Xiaoyu, who had been observing the scenery outside the window, also noticed the problem and asked cautiously: "Are we... lost?"

Yin Xiao sighed helplessly, picked up the spinning compass and showed it to them: "It's being disturbed by the special magnetic field of Kunlun Mountain."

Hidden Wolf stopped the car and said, "Don't go any further, or we'll get into trouble if we go further and further away."

The sky was clear blue at the moment, and the skyline was studded with white clouds, but the sun was not visible and there was no way to tell the direction.

Hidden Wolf and Hidden Owl had also encountered this situation when they were doing special training in Kunlun Mountains, and it usually only lasted for a few hours.

At worst, they have sufficient supplies and equipment, so spending the night here is not a problem.

I didn't tell Ji Shumiao and the others at first because I was afraid they would panic, but who would have thought that all three of them were so calm.

Brother Lang: "When traveling, there are always unexpected emergencies. When we decided on this route, we were mentally prepared."

Xiaoyu rested his chin on his hand and thought: "We are just lost. We haven't encountered mysterious creatures like in novels, entered mysterious caves by mistake, met hermits who taught us peerless magic skills..."

Hidden Wolf couldn't help but pour cold water on him: "You're dreaming, forget it. If you had it, we would have found it out long ago."

Xiaoyu pouted unhappily, but dared not be angry or say anything.

The five of them chatted and ate some food, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and pleasant.

Two hours later, navigation still hadn't been restored.

Ji Shumiao felt uneasy. Amid the concerned gazes and inquiries of the crowd, he whispered, "I want to pee."

There are three urgent matters in life, and in case of emergency, one should take temporary measures.

The structure of the human body is so amazing. It would have been fine if Ji Shumiao didn't say it. Once she said it, other people would have this need to some extent.

Five people got out of the car. Yinlang took Xiaoyu and Langge to the other side. Ji Shumiao followed Yinxiao and walked about seventy or eighty meters. They found a small mound and took care of their physiological needs. Then the two walked back side by side.

The sudden change happened at this moment. In an instant, dark clouds gathered, strong winds blew, and yellow sand filled the sky, blocking out the sun. They couldn't even see the off-road vehicle dozens of meters away.

"What..." Ji Shumiao's mouth was full of sand as soon as she opened it. The strong wind made it almost impossible for her to stand.

Yinxiao grabbed her forearm and said, "Don't talk, keep your head down and follow me."

Her grip caused Ji Shumiao some pain, but Ji Shumiao said nothing.

If it weren't for the pain in her forearm, she wouldn't be able to tell whether she was dreaming or not.

It took the two of them some time to get back to the car. Yinxiao pressed the car horn immediately and did not let go. Yinlang and the other two followed the sound of the horn and returned to the car soon.

Hidden Wolf cursed: "I met a ghost in broad daylight."

Should I stay where I am or drive forward recklessly?

Just as they were hesitating, the strong wind died down a little, and a tall figure suddenly appeared in the yellow sand before them. He was hunched over, his body pressed against the bumper of the off-road vehicle, and he raised his rifle...

Ji Shumiao saw the black muzzle of the gun, and that was all he could see.

bang——
