Falling into the Cretaceous

Mike looked at the clean bottled water and really wanted to grab one, but if he did, he would have to go out and explore. If he grabbed water in front of so many people instead of accepting the mission, people would not only see him as a coward, but might even beat him to death.

This is the effect of group supervision.

The same was true for the others; they wanted to drink but didn't dare to take it. This water was like a last meal before death; who the hell would dare to take it?

But as members of the reconnaissance and exploration team, they were still going to explore regardless of whether they took it or not.

Zhou Jian was the first to receive it.

He picked up a bottle and put it in his pocket, but didn't drink it in front of everyone, which would have made some people feel uncomfortable.

Next up was the Korean man.

After picking up the water, the Korean man came to Ning Yan's side.

"Miss Ning, if something happens to me tomorrow, I hope you can take good care of my daughter. You can drink half of this water."

The Korean man handed him the water.

Ning Yan shook her head and pushed the water back.

"You'll be fine. Everyone in the camp is our comrade, and we'll all take care of each other. If you're worried, I promise you I'll take good care of your daughter."

Upon hearing this, the South Korean man nodded excitedly.

He carried his daughter to the side and gave her some water.

Next, the men from the other exploration teams went to get water.

The nine bottles of water were quickly taken.

"If you can't resist now, you can drink a little, but be sure to save most of the water for when you go out tomorrow!" Shen Ye shouted to the nine people who had taken the water. They all took a small sip very carefully.

However, the problems of others have not yet been solved.

Shen Ye pulled out a roll of plastic bags.

This was found by Lin Ruochu in the cabin galley, along with the bread.

There was originally more food, but the kitchen was squeezed into a pancake.

"These food storage bags are very important. I'm giving each of you one now, so please keep them safe. I'll tell you what they're for shortly."

Shen Ye handed the plastic bag to Lin Ruochu.

Lin Ruochu took it and began distributing it.

Before long, fifty plastic bags were distributed, but some people still didn't get any.

"Those who didn't get a plastic bag, except the wounded, come over here."

Shen Ye took a look and found that 3 healthy people had not received the medicine, 28 were injured, and there were two children, a black child and a Korean girl.

"Okay, now I'll tell you what these plastic bags are for. Find some bushes and cover the denser branches and leaves with the bags, making sure they don't get torn. Then tie the bags shut."

Shen Ye glanced at the sky.

"If we tie them up for 24 hours, each bag should be able to collect 100 to 200 milliliters of fresh water. At night, the amount will be relatively small, but this will only keep us alive and will be far from meeting our physiological needs."

"Everything depends on our exploration team returning from the freshwater source!"

Shen Ye said.

"Brother Ye, what do we do if we don't have any bags?"

At this moment, Xiao Liu, who had an injured arm, asked.

Shen Ye knew that he was Zhang Qiming's employee and that he was with that girl, Xiao Wu.

"Don't worry about that. As you can see, there are many ferns in the surrounding woods. The roots of these ferns are edible and contain a lot of water, starch, protein, fat, dietary fiber, and so on. Everyone can dig them up and I will distribute them to everyone."

Shen Ye said.

"Is it fair that some people dig more and others dig less?"

At that moment, someone spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye was somewhat displeased that someone was still being so petty at a time like this.

However, this is indeed a problem.

"Let me tell you this: everyone should dig as much as possible and work as hard as possible. We are a team, and if everyone is thinking about slacking off, this team will perish very quickly. However, in order to improve work efficiency, I must take some measures."

After Shen Ye finished speaking, he looked at Mike.

"Today, the security team was supervising and noticed someone slacking off. They made a note of it, but the point only counts if all three people around the person being penalized agree that they are slacking off."

Mike smiled and nodded in agreement.

He really enjoys doing jobs that give him power.

However, he was also resented by others.

Once the tasks were arranged, the group leaders began assigning tasks: some stayed behind to weave fences, some tied bags, and some dug up fern roots.

A few members of the guard team went to supervise, while the rest stayed at the camp to make spears.

Before we knew it, dusk had fallen.

Strange noises began to emanate from the forest, and no one wanted to leave the camp; everyone stayed around the campfire.

Zhou Jian and his group tore off the feathers from the West Claw Dragon they had killed earlier, propped them up with tree branches, and roasted them over the campfire.

The bonfire was arranged in a grid pattern, and the fire was burning very brightly.

There's enough room for five or six people to sit around a barbecue.

Everyone else went back to their cabins, especially the wounded, who went inside to rest.

Eight of the wounded, including those with broken legs and ribs, and severely swollen legs and chests, were concentrated in the aft section of the cabin. He Yun stayed with them to take care of them.

Taking care of these wounded soldiers was no easy task; their legs were all infected.

Moreover, their situation was not good. They all knew very well that the eight of them would be abandoned sooner or later, so they either cursed or cried in the cabin.

Of the eight people with leg injuries, only three were women.

One of them was the young female model that Shen Ye had saved before. Her leg was also swollen, but she didn't want to complain like these people.

She knew she had to survive!

For this, I'm willing to pay any price!

She used a tree branch as a handrail to leave the cabin.

She knew that people with minor hand injuries had access to antibiotics and disinfectants, and she had to get these medications from them.

Otherwise, I would really have no choice but to wait for death.

She went to the young man named Xiao Liu. She knew that Xiao Liu was close to Zhang Qiming and might be able to get the drugs.

"Hello, my name is Sun Ranran, and I am a model."

Xiao Liu glanced at Sun Ranran and quickly and politely extended his hand.

"Hello, I am Liu Kexue."

"Mr. Liu, could you please get me some antibiotics? Please, I'll do anything for you, just one pill."

Sun Ranran said very directly, and one hand was already on Liu Kexue's neck.

Liu Kexue swallowed hard, but still took a step back.

"I'm sorry... I don't have any extra either. This is what Dr. He allocated..."

Liu Kexue's words disappointed Sun Ranran somewhat.

She couldn't possibly get the drug from someone who was timid and not lustful.

Just then, a middle-aged man not far away noticed that Sun Ranran was looking at him. He smiled at her and waved.

Sun Ranran supported herself and moved over step by step.

The middle-aged man had gray hair and was bald, looking to be around sixty years old. He only had an open fracture of his left upper arm.

He took out a capsule and a white pill from his pocket.

"Here are amoxicillin and ibuprofen. I can get one more within 24 hours."

Sun Ranran's heart raced as she looked at the two life-saving pills.

Ibuprofen reduces swelling and pain, while amoxicillin kills bacteria and reduces the risk of sepsis, which is also a fatal factor.

How can I obtain these two medicines from you?

Sun Ranran asked.

Her gaze met the old man's somewhat lewd eyes.
