Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 681

As everyone walked around the corner, the front suddenly became clearer.

There was a large open space, but the ground was covered with sand, as if it had entered a desert.

From here you can see a stone hill in the distance, with a house built on top of the stone hill.

It's almost noon now, and the field of view is very wide and clear, so you can clearly see that the color of the house is red from a distance.

The name of the inn is the Red Door Inn, which must be the red house.

"Brother, is this considered arrival?" No. 2 couldn't help but sigh when he saw the house in the distance.

Although the house was already in sight, it was at least several kilometers away from where everyone was.

This is probably what Wangshan means.

And the road ahead becomes difficult.

The reason it was difficult to walk was that the sand ahead was very soft, making walking on it very difficult.

There was even quicksand in some places, and I wonder if there would be sand whirlpools that could trap people.

But this is not a problem yet.

"Eight of you must bring the box to the Red Door Inn. If the box cannot enter the Red Door Inn before three o'clock this afternoon, the promotion competition of all eight actors will be declared a failure immediately! No one will advance!"

The female voice from before sounded in the air.

"I...fuck!"

The eight actors' eyes widened together.

That box is not ordinary heavy.

It took four camels to pull the cart just barely.

There was no way to drive a car on the sand in front of them, which meant they had to think of other ways to carry the box across?

For example... lift?

It was impossible to lift it, so everyone gathered together and began to think of a way.

They said they were trying to figure it out together, but except for Li Teng, No. 8, and No. 3, none of the actors seemed very active.

This is not surprising either.

If this box cannot be delivered to the Red Door Inn before three o'clock in the afternoon, all eight actors will be eliminated.

Judging from previous performances, No. 5, No. 8, and No. 3 have a good impression in the minds of the audience, and they are the three actors most promising to advance.

At this time, of course, we should be anxious to think of ways to put in more effort. If others can't think of a good way to express themselves, it's better to maintain a wait-and-see attitude.

"You can try to tie the box with ropes, and then let four camels pull the box forward on the sand." Number 8 came up with an idea.

Others had no better ideas for the time being, so they tried to use No. 8's method to solve the problem.

The first step, of course, is for everyone to work together to lift the box off the car.

As a result, after lifting for a long time, I couldn't even lift the box from the car, let alone the car.

"What's in it? Is it so heavy?"

"Is it gold? A box full of gold?"

"I think it's possible. The eight of us are businessmen! Of course businessmen go out with gold to sell things."

Everyone looked at the box and talked about it.

"Can you be more careful? Now only No. 5 has a certain advantage in the first round, but it's hard to say whether he can maintain his advantage until the end! With three promotion places, did you give up so quickly?

"The eight of us must be stronger than ordinary people. Working together, it is enough to lift this box. You don't use any force at all. Only a few of you can't lift it at all!

"The wasted time belongs to everyone, not just one person. Presumably everyone has experienced at least decades or even hundreds of years in the film and television city before reaching this point. Now the opportunity to advance is in front of you, but it is Are you about to give up?

"After being promoted to a supporting role, the treatment will be very different, and the scripts you participate in will also be very different. Don't you yearn for it at all?"

Number 8 spoke loudly to everyone.

Most people don't contribute, so of course he knows their mentality when he is among them.

Standing up to teach them a lesson at this time can also make him gain favor in front of the audience and think that he is a responsible person.

"Yes, please use your strength. If we eight grown men can't lift this box, won't we make the audience look down upon us? What's more, we're wasting our own opportunities." No. 2 echoed a few words.

"Do your best! Don't be a coward!" No. 3 unprecedentedly did not object to No. 8. Obviously he feels that he still has a good chance. If he gets stuck in the box, he will definitely lose the chance to advance.

"Everyone, please work hard!"

"We need to unite now, the audience bosses are watching us!"

"Yeah! Don't be so demotivated! It's embarrassing!"

After No. 8 said this, everyone else also expressed their intention to work together.

As for who used force and who didn't use force just now, there is no need to investigate for the time being.

After some mobilization on the 8th, slogans were shouted, and the eight people once again worked hard to lift the box together.

Sure enough, after everyone worked together, the box was easily lifted from the car and moved to the ground in front of the car.

Then everyone untied the traction ropes originally tied to the car behind the camels and tied them to the box.

Fortunately, it is a metal box and will not be easily damaged on the stone floor.

Everyone helped push the box from behind, and the camels pulled it in front. Soon the box was dragged to the sand.

Then, something big went wrong.

The sand was very soft and the metal box was heavy. After the camel dragged it for a while, the metal box sank deeper and deeper, and more and more sand piled up in front of it, making it impossible for the camel to drag it any longer.

"Damn it! I'm still waiting to sleep with the landlady. I can see the inn but can't go there!" No. 6 complained.

"I really didn't expect that the difficulty in this round was not how to sleep with the boss lady, but how to get this damn box!" No. 1 also complained.

"We take turns lifting the front half of the box so that the camel can pull it easily." After thinking for a while, No. 8 came up with an idea.

Everyone had no better idea for the time being, so they could only follow No. 8's suggestion and take turns lifting the front part of the box so that the box would not sink into the quicksand when being dragged by the camel.

However, the eight of them were soon exhausted and out of breath and could no longer hold on.

A strong wind carried a large amount of sand and blew them over. Everyone quickly turned around to avoid the wind.

The strong wind blew away all the footprints in the sand, and formed quicksand whirlpools in some places in the distance.

"This can't go on like this! We can't make it to the inn before three o'clock in the afternoon! There must be some better way that we have overlooked." When it was No. 2 and No. 7's turn to carry the box, No. 2 lamented.

"Stop complaining! Hurry up! It will be too late if you continue to delay!" No. 8 urged No. 2.

"I feel that at our current speed, we will never reach the inn at three o'clock. It will take a long time to move a little bit. We should work in groups of four. Someone will be responsible for carrying the box in front, and someone will help push it at the back to speed up." Seven suggested.

Chapter 682

Everyone started operating according to No. 7's suggestion.

The speed has indeed improved a bit, but there is not enough time to rest, and everyone's endurance is problematic.

However, these are minor issues.

Soon a bigger test...or rather a bigger pit dug by the crew took everyone into it.

While everyone was moving forward very hard, several ragged gangsters suddenly rushed out from under the sand, holding long pipes in their mouths and holding sharp knives in their hands! After they rushed out of the quicksand where they were hiding, they immediately opened up the four camels dragging the box with the sharp knives in their hands and killed them on the spot!

The exhausted eight people only reacted after the camel was killed and quickly fought back.

Fortunately, the eight of them were not ordinary people. They were all very skilled. Together, they quickly seriously injured these gangsters.

When they were about to be interrogated, they all bit out the poison in their mouths and died instantly.

Looking at the corpses of the four camels on the ground, everyone really wanted to cry.

Without the camels, this heavy box could only be carried to the Red Gate Inn by manpower.

This is simply an impossible task!

"It's useless to say anything now, everyone should hurry up! Four people are dragging in front, and four people are holding the box. We must arrive at the inn before three o'clock!" No. 8 urged everyone.

He has paid too much for this promotion.

From No. 8's point of view, although there were some hiccups in this promotion match, he felt that he still had certain advantages. Among the eight people, the only ones who were competitive were No. 5 and No. 3, so he definitely You cannot lose this opportunity to advance just because the box cannot be transported to the inn.

Another strong wind blew by, carrying a large amount of sand. Everyone quickly turned around to avoid the strong wind.

"Where's No. 5? Have any of you seen No. 5?" After the strong wind passed, No. 4 suddenly discovered a problem.

Only then did everyone notice that after the melee just now, No. 5 disappeared!

Did he fall to the ground and turn into a corpse?

Everyone checked on the sand and found No. 5's body.

Quicksand appeared where the bodies of several gangsters had been, and one of the gangsters' bodies was mostly swallowed up by the quicksand blown by the strong wind!

"Damn it! Everyone, be careful to avoid the quicksand! If the box is swallowed by the quicksand, it will be in trouble!" No. 8 couldn't help being shocked.

"Could No. 5 be killed and then swallowed by quicksand?"

"There was a chaotic fight just now. The scene was so chaotic that we couldn't even take care of other people."

"He won't be so unlucky, right?"

"It's possible. I remember that he was closest to the gangsters just now."

"They probably died. The number of gangsters is no less than ours. There is no way we won't lose in this battle."

Everyone was talking about it. On the surface, they expressed sympathy for No. 5, but on the inside they were very happy.

The biggest opponent has been eliminated!

But soon they were no longer happy.

Four camels were gone, and so was number five. Now it was even harder to carry the boxes. There was no way to get to the inn before three o'clock in the afternoon, so everyone was eliminated together!

What is the difference between hanging up?

"I thought of a way..." No. 3 said and ran forward for some distance.

"What can I do?" Others asked loudly to No. 3, "You just keep talking, why are you running so far?"

"This is the way I came up with, so you have to listen to my arrangements! This box is a trap. Under normal circumstances, we have no way of transporting it to the inn on time, but the plot will never give us an impossible task. .

"So there must be another solution. Now I have thought of a solution. All you have to do is wait and guard the box and don't let other gangsters snatch it away. Then I will use my method to take it away. The box will be delivered to the inn!" No. 3 loudly announced his plan to everyone here.

After hearing what No. 3 said, and how he left everyone and went to the front ready to run away at any moment, No. 8 suddenly woke up...

"You want to run to the inn alone and ask the landlady for help, right?" No. 8 revealed No. 3's unspoken plan on the spot.

"Yes, asking for help from the Red Gate Inn is the right solution! They live in the desert, there must be a better way to transport boxes! I came up with this method, and to be fair, I must implement it! You guys Just keep the box here!" No. 3 proposed to everyone.

The main plot line this time is to sleep with the boss's wife. The one who meets the boss's wife first will definitely have an advantage.

In addition, if this method works, the person who came up with it will gain more favor in front of the audience bosses, thus getting more votes.

Number Three couldn't help but admire his own intelligence.

"Yes, you did come up with the solution first. Go ahead! We will guard the box." No. 8 sighed, and there were audience members watching! Taking credit will damage his impression among the audience bosses.

No. 3 said nothing more, turned around and ran towards the Red Gate Inn.

"Will the method he said work?" No. 2 looked at the direction in which No. 3 disappeared, looking very depressed and unwilling.

After all, the brain is still not as flexible as others! Unexpectedly, such a good idea was overtaken by No. 3.

Not only can you meet and connect with the boss lady earlier, you can also fully demonstrate your talents in front of the audience to get more votes.

But now this good opportunity has eluded them.

"His method should be the real solution to the problem. After he said he thought of the method, I immediately thought of it. Unfortunately, it was still a step too late." No. 8 was also very depressed and unwilling.

"No. 3 is going to get a lot of votes this time! Maybe when he comes here, he will already be having sex with the boss lady." No. 2 continued to sigh.

"If we want to open more, it will be a good thing for us if he can think of a way to move the box to the inn. If the box cannot be delivered to the inn before three o'clock in the afternoon, we will all have to die." No. 8 comforted No. 2. sentence, and at the same time comforting myself.

Number 3 ran wildly in the desert, running wildly in the direction of the Red Gate Inn.

But soon he was out of breath and had to slow down.

Running in the sand consumes too much energy.

Half an hour later, No. 3 finally climbed up the rocky slope exhausted and arrived at the Red Gate Inn.

"I...I want to see your boss lady! I have a big business!" After climbing up the rocky slope, No. 3 tidied up his clothes, straightened his messy hair, and then rushed over to the inn. A man standing in front of the door shouted loudly.

"Huh? A man came over just now and spoke to me in the same way. The boss's wife should have boarded the sand boat with him and set off by now, right?" The clerk looked at No. 3 strangely.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from behind Shipo.

Standing on the rocky slope, No. 3 saw a strangely designed powered sand boat passing under the rocky slope.

The technology tree here is obviously a little crooked.

They used camels and vehicles to transport heavy boxes.

But the Red Gate Inn has a sand boat with such advanced design and such powerful power!

But it’s not surprising if you think about it. Without this kind of sand boat, how could the Red Gate Inn survive in this desert?

At this time, No. 3's attention was obviously not on the magical technology of Shachuan.

But on the bow of the sand ship.

No. 5 and the beautiful proprietress were standing on the bow of a sand boat equipped with sand-proof glass. The two of them were chatting and laughing as the sand boat sailed quickly to where No. 8 and the others were.

The sand rolled up from behind the powered sand boat sprayed No. 3 on the rocky slope all over his body and face.

"Nah! Isn't he dead?" No. 3 spit out the sand in his mouth, his eyes widened, with a look of depression and unwillingness on his face.
