Global Examination

You Huo and Qin Chen got into the cave one after the other, and the people inside all looked over.

Although the sky was gloomy and it was evening, the cave was not completely dark.

Several kerosene lamps were placed on the ground, casting a circle of light, around which the figures sat.

You Huo glanced around.

There are men and women sitting around, except for a few middle-aged people, all of them are young faces.

Unlike the few who just carried people out, they didn't wear uniform clothing, down jackets, jackets, coats, sweaters... They had everything wrapped up, and one even wore a white coat.

A rough count of thirty or so people should be the other 17 groups of candidates.

Right next to the white coat, You Huo saw an acquaintance——

Shu Xue waved at them with sparkling eyes, and patted the empty space beside her, motioning for them to go over.

You Huo nodded and was about to go over, but Qin Chen said, "Wait a moment."

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he brought in a suitcase from outside the cave.

"..."

Candidates were crazy at the time.

The buzzing discussion exploded in an instant.

One examinee didn't hold his throat, and his voice was very clear: "...Is this someone who was dragged here during a business trip? It's been three rounds of exams and you still have a suitcase, no wonder it's the second-to-last one!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone suddenly fell silent.

They introduced themselves early and knew each other clearly.So as soon as You Huo and Qin Jiu came in, everyone in the cave knew that the head giver was coming.

But it's okay to think about it in my heart, but it's embarrassing to say it.

Especially when the two parties passed by, it was really embarrassing to suffocate.

The one who leaked the word was a very young boy, probably similar to Yu Wen, who had curly hair permed with grandma's ashes.

He lowered his head and coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, and whispered to his companion, "It's over, I'm too excited..."

Who knows that You Huo didn't hear it.

And Qin Chen, who was one step behind him, smiled amusedly.

Shu Xue whispered: "I was scared to death, I thought I couldn't follow you! I was very happy when I saw the list just now."

"Oh?" Qin Chen jokingly said, "My fellow group is very upset, look at this green face."

You Huo: "..."

"By the way, let me introduce, this is my companion." Shu Xue pointed to the woman in a white coat beside her, "Her name is Wu Li, she is a brain doctor, you should have seen it in the ranking, she is very powerful. "

You Huo's eyes fell on the white coat again.

Wu Li has a plain face and a thin body, giving people a clean impression in such a chaotic environment.

The only thing that didn't fit her whole body was her hair, which was short and messy, as if it had been cut temporarily.

You Huo just glanced at it without looking too much.

Wu Li is not a lively and enthusiastic person, and she is not good at chatting. When she stares at people, she will give people a sense of serious inquiry.

She looked at You Huo for a moment with this kind of probing gaze, then looked at Qin Chen for a while, nodded and said, "Hello."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two to return their salutes, they withdrew their gazes.

……

Thinking of their rankings, Shu Xue was a little panicked: "By the way, have you heard the exam rules just announced?"

Qin Chen: "It's very clear."

"You should have seen the people who were carried out, right?" Shu Xue's face was not very good, sad and worried: "They are all crew members, there are eight of them in total..."

This represents 0 points in a few hours. If the ranking does not change, the last group of people will be unlucky first.

Shu Xue quietly introduced a circle of people present.

Not far from them, the two unlucky bastards named Fade Chen and Huang Rui had lost their minds and had been in a daze for a long time.

Surprisingly, the young grandma Hui and his whispering companion are now ranked first, with a total score of 42.

Grandma Hui's name is Di Li, and it is said that she has just turned 18, just like Yu Wen.

……

There are also candidate rankings on the stone wall in the cave.

You Huo withdrew his gaze from there, and suddenly asked, "Where's the person?"

Shu Xue was taken aback: "Huh?"

"The captain's crew, those on the merchant ship."

"It's all inside." Shu Xue pointed behind her.

You Huo looked in the direction of her finger.

They just noticed that there is another hole there, which is connected to another space.

A fire was lit inside, and the stone walls shone with light.

But it can be seen that the fire is very weak, as if it will go out at any time.

"The inside is more sheltered from the wind, the place is smaller, and it's a little warmer." Shu Xue said, "The captain and crew are here. We counted 36 people before you came, which is exactly the same as our number. Now... only 28 people are left. .”

"What happened to the 8 people who died? Are they injured or hungry?" You Huo asked.

"I just asked the crew members, there must be all these reasons, cold and hungry, these people have been sick all the time." Shu Xue said.

"The temperature here is too low and too cold. If they can't guarantee their body temperature, they have to rely on food to make up for it. But they have limited food, they are hungry every day, and their resistance is weakened." An examinee analyzed.

"That is to say, to ensure that they survive to return to the voyage, they must first find fire and then find food?"

"Correct."

"No, look for medicine first."

Wu Li spoke suddenly.

"what?"

Wu Li said: "The crew members have wounds on their bodies, which were caused by the attack of wild beasts."

Shu Xue exclaimed in a low voice: "What? There are wild beasts here?"

Everyone glanced warily at the entrance of the cave.

"I don't know." Wu Li said sternly: "But the few who died should be based on infection. They were cold and hungry, and the wounds could not recover for a long time. The rest of the crew members were similar, and none of them had no medicine. Can't survive."

The white coat on her body strengthened the convincing force of these words.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, paralyzed: "Fire and food can still find a way, where can I find medicine?"

Grandma Hui Dili suddenly said: "There are in merchant ships."

Everyone was stunned: "What?"

Di Li said: "From 1596 to 98, a Dutch captain... called Barents, if I remember correctly, was trapped in a certain area in the Arctic Circle. A total of 18 people including the captain and the crew survived on an isolated island. For 8 months, I obtained food by hunting, and the fur was just enough to be used as clothes. When the fuel was used up, the deck on the ship was dismantled and set on fire to keep warm. It is said that there were food, clothes and medicine in the cargo, but they did not touch them. In the end, they all died Eight crew members were recruited, and finally the goods were delivered to the destination in good condition in the spring.”

Before everyone could react, he sniffed again and said, "The questions I did on the sophomore exam paper."

Also just after the college entrance examination, Di Li and Yu Wen fully proved the diversity of species.

He still remembers the question in the second year of high school, and Yu Wen only popped out "Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing".

"I thought of that question as soon as I came here." Di Li said: "But it shouldn't be exactly the same. First of all, the number of people is different. In the original question, 8 people died in the end, so I can't say for sure here. So there are people in the merchant ship. No, I have to check it out."

"some."

A voice with a jerky accent answered.

You Huo followed the sound and looked over.

It was the crew member who had just carried the body out.

They had already dealt with their companions and came back one after another.

One of the men with a crew cut has an Asian face and speaks Chinese when he opens his mouth.

He coughed a few times, fixed his eyes on Di Li, and said with a cold expression, "We have medicine in the ship, but it's all cargo, and no one can touch it."

Di Li: "We don't want to move either, but it's to save you! If you don't take medicine, you won't survive, don't you hear?"

The crew-cut man: "So what if you don't survive? You are insulting us."

Di Li: "..."

You are threatening us...

While speaking, other crew members also gathered around.

All the dark heads were directed at Di Li.

Di Li's companion tried to ease the atmosphere: "No, it's your merchant ship after all, why would we move around at will. It's just that you are too worried."

Several crew members whispered a few words, matching their expressions, like a warning.

"what did they say?"

The crew-haired man said with a straight face: "They said, we never privately use any goods, not even a single needle. This is a rule passed down from generation to generation. Whoever destroys it is against the entire merchant fleet. We are not afraid of a duel."

"..."

Everyone's faces were full of excitement, thinking that whoever steps on the horse wants to fight with you, who dares, if you accidentally kill one, you will have to pay.

"Okay, okay, don't destroy, whoever destroys us will be in a hurry!" Everyone comforted.

The flat-headed man fired two shots, and his strength was exhausted.With lowered eyes, he waved to the crew and said, "Go, go in first."

He should be a first mate, at least the crew listened to him.

Line up to drill the narrow opening.

The crew-cut man was at the end of the line, and he couldn't help emphasizing to everyone: "We will go to check the goods every morning and evening. If there is one missing, I will find you. Those medicines are scarce in the first place, and we remember everything clearly. Chu, don’t expect to fool them. To move them, first step over our corpses.”

Everyone: "..."

During the stalemate, two "clicks, clicks" suddenly sounded in the cave.

Everyone scanned around and found the source of the sound——

Qin Chen opened the very conspicuous suitcase, picked and picked out a box from inside.

"Fortunately, I made up some things before I came."

He bent down, put the box in front of Wu Li, and pushed two long and thin fingers forward half an inch, making a "please" gesture.

Wu Li froze for a moment, then opened the box.

Everyone craned their necks curiously to look inside.

There were three boxes of medicines neatly stacked inside the box, anti-inflammatory, disinfectant, and fever-reducing medicines, and a bottle of vitamins was stuffed next to it.

Everyone: "..."

You Huo glanced at it: "I have a lot of experience, so it's generally not good?"

"Before going to the rest area, 922 yelled at me for the shopping list. Of course I don't need it, and he doesn't know the others, so he might be just in case for you."

Qin Chen betrayed his subordinates without hesitation.

You Huo: "..."

On the sea, in the brightly lit cabin.

922 sneezed eight times in a row.

154 took out a few tissues to wipe his face, and asked disgustedly: "Can I go on deck if I'm sick? The air in the cabin is blocked, do you know it will be contagious?"

922: "No, I'm not sick. I think someone is missing me."

154 rolled his eyes: "The ghost is thinking."

"Speaking of ghosts..." 922 frowned, as if he had swallowed a pumpkin: "There is that plague god in this exam, do you think he will come again?"

154 thought for a while and said, "No way, the boss is here. If I'm not mistaken, they should be in the same group, can they still foul when they are in the same group as the proctor?"

922: "Oh... also."

第40章心疼监考┃监考官154、922、078、021正在赶来的路上。

When candidates first entered the arena, the crew always looked pale when they were uninvited guests.

Of course, living in an isolated island for 8 months, it is impossible to have flesh color.

Now because candidates take the initiative to send medicine, their attitude has changed significantly.

To express their gratitude, the crew decided to share the fire with the candidates.So, everyone moved into the cave inside.

……

This stone cave is indeed small, and once the examinee enters, it fills up the remaining space.

The crew-haired man pressed his lips and "hush": "The captain has stayed up at night for a long time, try to keep your voice as low as possible so as not to wake him up."

He pointed to a figure in the corner.

It was a middle-aged man, curled up in a position far from the fire, leaving the close proximity to the other crew members.

He faced the fire, frowning and fell asleep.The firelight didn't change the pale complexion, but made his sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones more obvious.

"Captain?" Di Li asked curiously, "Is your name Barents?"

A group of crew members looked at him strangely.

"What's wrong?" Di Li was a little flustered, and added: "I just—"

Before the words fell, a young crew member said in surprise: "How do you know? Are you a wizard?"

Di Li was very proud, showing his two canine teeth and said, "I am a werewolf."

The crew-haired man said slowly, "Werewolf? Oh, I don't know if it's true or not...Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's a witch or a werewolf, it's better to be careful. It's okay on the island, but if you go out, you will be caught and burned to death."

"..."

Di Li's mouth hardened into laughter at that moment.

……

Wu Li did a simple inspection of all the crew members. A total of 14 people had wounds, including the crew cut man and Captain Barents.

When this lady is doing business, she hates being surrounded by people.

But for the sake of medicine, she made an exception for You Huo and Qin Chen.

Because she needs someone to hold down this group of feudal remnants with a foreign flavor.

Such as anti-inflammatory drugs.

This medicine is an injection, a box of 12 bottles, with a free injection.There is no condition to tie one for another, and can only use fire to sterilize.

When Wu Li screwed on the needle, several crew members retreated in turn, muttering suspiciously.In the end, before taking two steps back, You Huo pressed against his heels, and immediately looked desperate.

"What are you doing?" Wu Li asked with a straight face.

The crew members looked like she was not here to save people, but to kill people.

The first mate with a flat head explained: "They said that your medical skills are too strange. A normal doctor would not hold this thing to drink water."

Wu Li gave the hand that pushed the bubble a pause: "... Zishui?"

Ping Tou keenly sensed her displeasure, and immediately added: "It's just a description, don't take it seriously."

Wu Li still had a straight face: "What do their normal doctors do? Let me hear."

The crew chattered and gestured, and even uttered onomatopoeic words of "pa——pa——".

Flat head briefly summarizes: "Generally there will be a thin stick this long, which is used to whip the patient."

Wu Li: "..."

"Rely on what?" Shu Xue didn't hear clearly.

Qin Chen was more succinct: "Suck to death."

Shu Xue: "..."

You confused irony: "How can you generalize like that?"

Qin Chen laughed and said, "Thank you."

The crew gestured again.

The first officer with a flat head continued to explain: "Or bloodletting is also a good way, and many doctors will choose to do so."

"..."

Dr. Wu really couldn't stand this kind of foreign fart, so he said to You Huo and Qin Chen, "Help me control it, I'm afraid I can't do it alone, thank you."

Just as Shu Xue was about to take a step forward, Wu Li said with eyes behind her back, "Sit back for me."

"..." The fake pregnant woman was about to suffocate to death.

When the crew members heard that they wanted to control, they all wanted to slip away.

The other candidates didn't sit still and stopped around.

They were persuading them earnestly, when they saw Qin Chen pull out the commonly used leather rope, tie a knot in the blink of an eye, and put it on the hands of a crew member.

He is extremely proficient, with a knot in three seconds, and a row can be tied in the blink of an eye.

They counted 7 of them, and they just formed a bunch and gave them to Dr. Wu.

Just when he was about to set the 8th one, a slender hand came across.

It is wandering confusion.

The big man put his five fingers together to form a knife, and with one knife and one head, he knocked out the other crew members with precision.The first mate and translator with a crew cut was left alone.

Flathead was dumbfounded.

Wu Li looked at the group of people and the people on the ground, and her face could hardly be tensed.

She sighed, debridement and injection one by one.

……

You Huo noticed that the crew members had strange wounds.

Some were torn apart, and some left a long bloody scar on their backs or arms.The congestion persisted for a long time, and then it began to turn blue and black, which was shocking.

These are not the scratches of the beast's claws, let alone the bite marks.

But isn't this kind of ice and snow like polar bears and arctic wolves?

What beast of prey would leave such a wound?

You Huo asked him while the flat head was not dizzy.

He sighed and said, "I don't know, neither of us."

"What do you mean?"

"This matter actually started recently..." Pingtou said.

Recently means about ten days ago.

They encountered a tide of fish under the ice that day, took the opportunity to catch a batch, and ate their fill.

This was a rare lucky day on the isolated island. After eating, they gathered around the fire to keep warm, and talked about things worth looking forward to to encourage each other.

In the end, for some reason, they all fell asleep while chatting.

When they woke up suddenly, the fire was extinguished somehow, and the cave was completely dark.

They heard a scream, right next to the crew chief mate.

"Fortunately, my hands are always faster than my brain. At that time, my first reaction was to grab some." The flat-headed man said, "It was luck, too. I just grabbed his ankle. He was being dragged out of the hole by something." Go, it’s so powerful anyway. It’s useless for me to greet a group of people to follow behind, and almost dragged us out together.”

This thrill continued until the fire was lit again.

The force pulling them suddenly loosened, and they fell into a bunch of dogs eating mud.

"The next day, the place where I was strangled became like this." Pingtou sighed and said: "We didn't dare to put out the fire during the day, as long as there were people, there must be a fire, so we took turns to watch the night. Sometimes Still can't stop it."

"We later discovered that the bigger the fireball, the safer it is, so the amount of fuel and firewood was directly doubled, and the more we used, the more we used."

"The fuel ran out, so I had to dismantle a part of the deck to burn it. It was enough to last until the snow melted. When this incident disturbed it, the fire would be cut off today."

"No." Wu Li interrupted: "The fire can't be broken for a minute."

Everyone looked at her.

She said: "Injections and medicine are not a panacea. The body temperature must be guaranteed. If the fire is extinguished, the temperature in the cave will drop in a few minutes, and the medicine will be useless. Not only must there be a fire, but it must be bigger. If there is more firewood, it is best to light both the inner and outer caves to ensure a healthy temperature.”

"I understand the principles, but it's a bit difficult to implement." A candidate said: "When I came here, I roughly turned around. The island is almost full of stones."

"It's really not possible, we still have to rely on merchant ships." Di Li was too impressed with the exam questions, always thinking about the wood of merchant ships.

Pingtou was in a hurry: "No! The cargo cannot be moved! If it really moved, we would have no face to go back. The captain said that he jumped into the sea to apologize for losing the cargo. I have an idea with him."

Everyone: "..."

Di Li quickly said: "Don't move the cargo, I know that your cargo is more important than your life. I have been writing about this subjective topic for a year. I mean dismantling the deck!"

"The deck can't be dismantled anymore." Pingtou said: "If it is dismantled again, the ship will be useless, and the wind and rain will not be able to stop it. The cargo will still suffer, and eventually it will jump into the sea."

Di Li: "..."

Why do you have so many causes of death?

"Not even one?" Everyone tried to bargain.

Pingtou said: "No, and it's not enough to burn."

……

In the cave, the fist-sized flames swayed slightly, and became smaller than before.

"No, it's really going to be turned off." Although Di Li was young, he took the number one ranking after all, and felt that he was the destined candidate representative.

He patted his buttocks and stood up, saying: "How about this, some people will go to the island to look for it, see if they can find some branches. The other people will follow this uncle—"

short hair:"……"

"—Brother, go to the merchant ship and have a look again. What if there is still a fish that slipped through the net? One piece is one piece."

The others were older than him, giving way to him a bit.

What's more, what this kid said made sense, so everyone split up to follow suit.

Wu Li stayed to take care of the wounded.

Shu Xue prepared ten excuses in her heart and planned to go out together.

She wanted to follow You Huo and Qin Chen to see if there was anything that needed help.After all, these two knew that she was not a real pregnant woman, so they didn't have to restrain themselves.

Who would have thought that the two big bosses would stand at the end of the team without any haste, and stopped Shu Xue before leaving the cave.

You Huo said, "I'll go around alone."

Qin Chen glanced at him and said, "Coincidentally, me too."

You Huo let out an "oh", and raised his chin towards the entrance of the cave: "It's a different road, you can go."

Qin Chen touched his cheeks with the tip of his tongue, narrowed his eyes after thinking for two seconds and said, "Okay."

After Qin Chen left, You Huo turned his head.

Shu Xue asked softly: "Are you sure you don't need to help? Finding firewood in this situation is a hassle. You are all busy, so I can't sit still. But if it's inconvenient, I'd better go back and accompany Wu Li."

You Huo said: "It's not troublesome, at most it's a bit irregular."

Shu Xue: "..."

He waved his hand, turned his head and left, and when he came to the entrance of the cave, he turned back and said, "You can stay here, then let him watch someone's suitcase."

After finishing speaking, he added: "Eat a lot."

Shu Xue: "...Oh."

……

In the twilight, the small boats used by the system to pick up and drop off candidates parked neatly in a circle, separated by a short distance from the three merchant ships in the question.

According to the examination rules announced at the beginning, when the examination is successfully completed, these system-configured boats will set sail again and take each group of candidates out of the examination room.

Other than that, no one should be here.

But at this moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared on the deck of one of the system ships.

He had just climbed up from the rope ladder, and bent over to pick and choose by the helm, looking for hand tools.

It was You Huo who just said that he wanted to go around alone.

He was looking for the long iron hook he had used to get on the boat.

In my impression, I lost it here, but somehow I can't find it.

You Huo turned around, lost his patience, turned over a dagger slightly longer than his hand, and planned to do something.

He touched the seam of the deck with his finger, and raised the blade to pry it.As a result, there was a sudden crackling sound in the cabin.

anyone?

You Huo froze for a moment, frowned, walked to the stairs, and moved the trap with his feet.

He thought he would see the old captain who stayed behind, but instead he saw Qin Chen...

The opponent held the missing long iron hook in one hand, and threw away a pried wooden board with the other.

With a bang, the planks fell to the side, where a small pile was already there.

When Qin Chen heard the movement above his head, he twirled the long hook in his hand, put it on his shoulder, raised his head and said, "What a coincidence, top student, are you also visiting the system's boat?"

You Huo: "..."

He cast his eyes down for a moment, then crouched by the trapdoor, dagger in hand.

"Do you still remember that you are an invigilator?" He asked Qin Chen across the tall wooden stairs.

Qin Chen laughed: "Yes, I have a little impression. But right now, I look more like your accomplice, what do you think?"

You Huo watched condescendingly for a while, then finally turned his head and hummed: "All right."

……

After half an hour.

Di Li and the others returned to the cave in batches, bringing their trophies: two bundles of wet branches, and three decks for life extension.

Gone.

This is clearly not far off.

When everyone was depressed, the examinee who was closest to the entrance of the cave suddenly stood up.

"What's wrong?" Everyone tensed up.

"I heard voices... wait, I'll go and have a look!" the examinee said and got out.

In less than half a minute, he ran back again.

"Fuck me..."

When he entered the door, he said a foul word, and then took two big breaths.

"What's the matter? Stop panting and say it!"

"The penultimate two!"

"Ok?"

"Come back with a big pile of dry lumber, right at the door!"

"A lot of them? How is it possible? Where did they come from?" Before Di Li could finish his question, the person had already flown out.

The moment he flew out, he heard the candidate say: "It was pried on the boat! They dismantled the system boat!"

Di Li: "..."

What? ? ?

More than 30 examinees came out of the cave in a hurry, and were immediately surprised by the pile of wood at the entrance of the cave, which was half the height of a person.

Before they could close their mouths, the dead rabbit outside the cave lied:

[Candidates You Huo and Qin Zhu violated the rules and dismantled the system ships, and the invigilator has been notified.Invigilators 154, 922, 078, and 021 are on their way. 】
