Chapter 7 Surviving

Jerome, who was investigating the accident at the scene, passed through the passage made aside by a bunch of students, and walked over. Every year, students suffer casualties during the survival trial. As the organizer of the trial, the temporary supervision committee is not responsible for the casualties of the students. , but in the case of casualties, the school and the parents of the students must also give an explanation - all students who accidentally die during the trial must have an accident investigation report issued by the seven teachers from the three schools of the temporary supervision committee. It can be regarded as an explanation to the school and the student's family. This explanation is very bureaucratic, but it is also necessary. After all, human life is at stake, and teachers and instructors have no responsibility, but the student's family must know how the student died.

After the news of Zhang Tie's accident spread to Wild Wolf Castle, seven teachers and instructors including Captain Colin and Jerome went to the place where Zhang Tie had an accident to inspect the scene.

Jerome is the most expert at judging these clues on the scene. From the place where Zhang Tie dropped the mine basket to the edge of this dark black hole, Jerome walked back and forth twice, and even went to those wild animals in person. The wolf squatted in the grass where the wolf lay in ambush for a long time, and finally Jerome came back with a strange expression.

"How is it, Jerome?" Captain Colin's face darkened slightly. He still remembered Zhang Tie. Among the graduates of this class, Zhang Tie was one of the few who could impress him. Unexpectedly, this guy did have an accident this time, which made Captain Colin feel a little uncomfortable. The death of Zhang Tie reminded Captain Colin that in the past, familiar comrades and friends often left this world after a battle. those days. This made Captain Colin feel bad.

"Terrible, terrible..." Jerome's face was serious.

"Of course it's terrible to encounter such a thing. Within five kilometers around Wild Wolf Castle, there has not been an incident of hordes of wild wolves attacking trial students for more than ten years. During the non-trial period, the defenders of the castle I often raid around the castle, these wolves are scared of being killed, I don’t know why groups of wild wolves appeared so close to the castle this time?” A female teacher who came together looked at the place on the ground. The two wolf corpses shook their heads slightly, "It's a pity, looking at the wounds on the two wild wolf corpses and the dictation of the students who witnessed it, this student named Zhang Tie is a man who can be made, brave and decisive. , witty, one person can kill three wolves, and his strength can also be ranked in the forefront among his peers..."

"I'm not saying this is terrible, I mean that this student named Zhang Tie is terrible..." Jerome shook his head.

Jerome's words attracted the attention of all the teachers.

"What's so scary about this student?" said a teacher.

Jerome smiled lightly, and instead of answering the question, he turned to Captain Colin, "How does this student named Zhang Tie usually perform in school? Is this person your student's recommended student this year?"

"This person's performance in school is very ordinary. In the past three years, he hasn't performed too well. It's just that his brain is easier to use, he is also a little smart, and his temper is not bad..." Wei Wei frowned, although he was a little uncomfortable with Zhe Rom's way of speaking, Captain Colin replied realistically, "By the way, this guy is also very good at escaping and taking advantage of himself. As for the school's recommended students, everyone is optimistic about the number of recommended students in our school this year. Gris and a student named Bulvik, this person's performance in school is not up to the requirements of recommended students, Jerome, I don't know why you ask such a question? By the way, there is also what you just said What does it mean that this student is scary?"

"Such a person is not recommended by your school?" Jerome looked at Captain Colin in surprise, and then smiled, "You can't even look down on such an excellent person. I just checked carefully. I carefully calculated the distance from that piece of grass to this black hole in my heart, do you know what I found?"

"what?"

"The moment the student noticed the seven wolves coming out of the grass,

Just decided to jump down this deep hole to save your life? "

"Is this strange?" A teacher asked with some doubts, "I don't see anything strange here at all. In the case of weak strength, it is human instinct to run away from wild wolves..."

"Of course it's strange..." Jerome said leisurely, "It's human instinct to run away from danger, but it's scary to know how to escape in danger. This black hole is about two hundred meters away from the place where he encountered the wild wolf. It is the only place where he has a chance to get away from the wolf's mouth in this distance among all the surrounding terrain. The escape direction that many people choose in that situation must be to run towards the wild wolf castle or a crowded place, and this The guy ran towards this black hole, and chose an optimal escape route. This is his frightening feature. At the moment of his escape, he already had the possibility of escaping in every direction in his heart, even when he was caught. The time for the pack of wolves to catch up and the distance he can run during this time have all been calculated..."

Seeing that someone still didn't know what he was talking about, Jerome simply drew a point on the ground with a branch in his hand, "This point is where Zhang Tie met the wolves..." Surrounding this point, Jerome Jim drew a circle, "This is the maximum movement radius he can run before the pack of wolves overtakes him, about two hundred meters..." After drawing the circle, Jerome clicked on the edge of the circle again. For a moment, "This is the black hole, which is where we are now. This position is the only place on this land within this circle that allows him to escape from the wolf's mouth. Except for this place, at any point within this circle, That guy must have been bitten by those wolves at this moment, leaving only a pile of broken corpses, which is why I said that the terrifying place of this student named Zhang Tie was only in an instant, within such a large area, Before he was overtaken by wolves, there were thousands of possibilities, but he was able to find the only possibility that allowed him to escape, this kind of sharp judgment in the face of danger, this kind of The ability to escape is really terrifying!"

This time, everyone understood. Looking at the two points in the circle Jerome drew on the ground, everyone was slightly shocked, just like Jerome said, starting from that central point , There are indeed countless possibilities of escaping and eventually being caught up by the wolves, but among those countless possibilities, when a person encounters seven wolves, only this one is the only one that has a little hope.

"This...could it be a coincidence?" A teacher hesitated and said, this kind of critical judgment, not to mention students, many teachers may not be able to do it.

"Don't forget, according to those students, this guy was also carrying a pickaxe when he ran away..."

"What does this mean? Isn't it instinctive to carry a weapon when a wolf runs away?"

"His weapon is his dagger, not the pickaxe. The pickaxe is a nuisance when running away. The sole purpose of running away with the pickaxe is to use it for himself when he jumps into the hole. In order to survive, the hole dug by this gold-eating python cannot be completely perpendicular to the ground forever, as long as the slope in the hole decreases, he can use the pickaxe to slow down his falling speed..."

"That is to say, is it possible that Zhang Tie is still alive?" Captain Colin opened his mouth wide, looked at the black hole, then at Jerome, and asked in disbelief.

"It's hard to die for such a guy in my impression, each one's vitality is stronger than that of a cockroach!"

"I'm going down!" said Captain Colin.

"When the rope in the castle arrives, I'll go down with you to have a look..." Jerome stroked his chin with one hand, full of curiosity about Zhang Tie, and under such circumstances, he could calmly move forward. It is really rare for a student to find a chance of life in despair.

The ropes in the Wild Wolf Castle were delivered quickly, and more than 20 students and teachers on duty carried the ropes. These ropes are standard strong ropes purchased by the Black Yancheng military. Wear-resistant, it is no problem to hang things weighing two tons. These ropes are used to connect them, and they are more than 400 meters long.

"This is the longest rope that Wild Wolf Castle can make up. No one knows how deep the hole of this gold-eating python is. If we don't find him after the distance beyond the rope, then there is nothing we can do! Jerome looked at Colin and said.

Captain Colin nodded, "If that's the case, I can only blame this guy for his bad life. We'll just do our best. I won't go down to have a look when I see a student fall into the hole. I can't bear it with my conscience."

After tying one end of the rope to a huge boulder more than 20 meters away from the entrance of the cave, Captain Colin and Jerome each tied a safety buckle to the rope, and then each took a green fluorite glow stick, and then jumped into this dark hole one after the other...

No one dared to be careless in this kind of cave of the gold-devouring python that might be bottomless.

Seeing two people jumping into the hole one after another, the surrounding students all let out an exclamation...

When they went down to more than 20 meters into the cave, all the light in the cave turned into the fluorite glow sticks held by Captain Colin and Jerome. With that high-grade fluorite glow stick, Jerome He kept staring at the wall of the cave. When the first buffer and bend appeared in the cave, Jerome was shocked. He pointed to the fresh mark on the wall, and the giant gold-eating python shot out. In the cave, there will be a circle of strange spiral patterns on the structure of the cave wall. Among these spiral patterns, a straight trace is very obvious, and the degree of newness and oldness is also easy to identify.

"This is the drop point of the pickaxe. This is the trace drawn from the drop point downwards. Did you see that little guy named Zhang Tie used the pickaxe to escape? This brain is too scary... ..." Confirming his guess, Jerome's eyes sparkled, and his interest in Zhang Tie increased by another level.

Captain Colin was also very excited. He didn't expect this guy to be really good at escaping besides his daring words.

The two people who saw the scratches were shocked, and they slid down the rope all the way. The scratches on the cave wall were almost unbroken along the way, ranging from deep to shallow. Those freshly baked scratches were like road signs. Similarly, although there are still some forks in the entrance of the cave, the two of them slid along those scratches towards the place where Zhang Tie fell...

People at the entrance of the cave can't see what's going on inside, they can only watch the rope outside the cave entrance being swallowed by the black hole that opened its mouth like a noodle, 20 meters - 30 meters - 50 meters - -80 meters - 100 meters - 120 meters - 150 meters - 170 meters -

The moods of the people above also became heavy as the rope slid down one by one. How could that man named Zhang Tie still survive at such a deep distance.

The rope finally stopped before 190 meters. After stopping for a few minutes, according to the agreed signal, the lower rope was pulled hard three times in a row, and then the people above pulled the rope together, and the rope was lowered The speed is very slow, but it is much faster to pull up, especially for experts like Captain Colin and Jerome, as long as there is a little leverage, the two of them will come up without any trouble...

A few minutes later, when the rope was about to be fully pulled back, with a long howl coming from the cave, Captain Colin and Jerome flew out of the cave like two big birds. After landing, all eyes were on the figure tied on his back by Captain Colin.

"Zhang Tie is still alive, he just passed out now..."

Captain Colin yelled excitedly. In the crowd of onlookers, a few guys from the Airplane Brotherhood almost jumped up. All the people who came to see the fun cheered. Like a miracle, a guy fell into a black hole about 200 meters away, and he was still alive. This vitality is stronger than that of a cockroach...

With a "snap", Jerome dropped the corpse of the wild wolf and the mining pick in his hand on the ground, and everyone realized that no matter how many holes fell into this guy, his life was not only harder than that of a cockroach, but he seemed to be a Very powerful guy, he can kill three wolves by himself...

The wolf thrown on the ground was limp, like a child's doll. Jerome rubbed his chin. This piece of iron was even stronger than he thought. Not only did he think of it when he fell into the hole, Using a pickaxe to save his life, even the body of the wild wolf he killed was used by him as a buffer to protect his own body. Without this wolf corpse, at least several bones in Zhang Tie's body would be broken at this moment. And at this moment, apart from the injuries on his legs and some scrapes and bruises on his body, this guy didn't have any broken bones, but just passed out. It's a miracle. Such a student is too rare...

While everyone was cheering, there were two people on the edge of the crowd. When they heard that Zhang Tie was fine, instead of being happy, their expressions changed and they quietly retreated from the crowd.

Because Zhang Tie still had some injuries and was in a coma, Captain Colin decided to take Zhang Tie back to Wild Wolf Castle.

What he saw in that black hole made Captain Colin completely admire the student Zhang Tie. Captain Colin asked himself, at the same age as Zhang Tie, jumping into such a hole by himself would definitely lead to a dead end. It’s a pity that this guy still thought of carrying a mining pick when he ran away. If he didn’t have that mining pick All the way to slow down the momentum of his jump, at the end of the big gentle slope more than 100 meters deep, not a few bones in this guy's body are intact.

From the moment he rescued Zhang Tie and announced that he was still alive, Jerome quietly observed the people watching from the surrounding cordon. Finally, when he reached the crowd, there were two people standing beside them. After quietly leaving with cheers, Jerome narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately remembered the backs of the two people in his heart...

...

Half an hour later, in a place far away from here, in the cave where Gris and others stayed, after hearing the news and events brought by Zuhaier and Ganel who went out to inquire about the news, everyone was stunned. chicken.

"You mean that Zhang Tie is not dead yet, how is that possible, even if the pack of wolves didn't kill him, and he jumped into the black hole hundreds of meters deep, where is his life left? Is this guy made of iron? Is this not dead?" Sharon cried out involuntarily.

"Everyone saw it. Captain Colin and the teacher named Jerome went down to the cave and brought Zhang Tie up. They tied the rope they went down to the cave for about 200 meters, and finally brought Zhang Tie up. Pull it up..." Zu Haier also felt lingering fear when he said this, "That guy is too dead, I really don't know how he survived falling into such a deep hole."

"Damn it!" Thinking that he had spent so much effort and set up such a game, but he still couldn't kill such an ordinary guy, Gris couldn't help becoming angry, "Zu Haier, what do you think now? Can't you think of a way to kill him?"

Zu Haier's face turned slightly pale, "This matter has already attracted the attention of the temporary supervision committee. Once what we did is known, we will not end well, and I feel that the person in charge at the scene Jerome, who was investigating, seems to have discovered something, if we do something against Zhang Tie now, it would be too obvious and too dangerous..."

"You think we'll just leave it at that?" Gries asked unwillingly. Thinking of the experience of being defeated by Zhang Tie twice, Gries felt that it was a great shame in his life.

"This is the only way to do it now. Zhang Tie is too eye-catching now. This incident can be regarded as a lesson for him. As long as you can reach the third-level soldier and get the school's recommended quota, wait until you return to Heiyan City." , it won’t be too late for us to find a way to deal with him, and it would be a small loss if we take such a big risk for him now!”

No matter how unwilling Greis is, he can only agree with Zu Haier at this moment, "Well, let him live for a few more days, and when we return to Black Flame City, we will find a way to deal with him..."

This didn't kill Zhang Tie, and Greese couldn't help feeling a little jealous of Zhang Tie, who he never looked down upon.

Fortunately, this guy named Zhang Tie will never be able to catch up with him, Gris comforted himself, or his father was right, in this world, strength and fists are always respected, as long as he always has the ability to overwhelm that guy, The strength that makes him despair, the fist that makes him have to get down, then one day, he can deal with him as he wants.
