Chapter 565: At the end of one's rope

Soon, everyone had only one or two grenades left each.

And the path to that pile of gold eggs had only been blown out for more than half the distance by the grenades everyone threw.

But everyone didn't dare to throw the grenades in their hands anymore, because these 10-plus grenades were originally what everyone wanted to keep for saving their lives or emergencies.

Of course, the most important reason was that even if all ten grenades were thrown, it wouldn't solve the problem at all.

How many landmines were left, they didn't know; where the landmines were, they didn't know.

The most critical problem was how many of those strange and bizarre landmines were left, which was also unknown.

But that pile of gold eggs was right in front of them, yet they could only watch and couldn't get them; what kind of annoying mood was this?

So, looking at the pile of gold eggs in front of them, everyone frowned and fell into a state of stagnation.

It could be seen that everyone was trying hard to think about how to get past this remaining short path of less than 20 meters.

It had to be said that this was simply enough to worry someone to death!

After a long time, Seeing Mu Xueli was heard saying: "Why don't we build a bridge? Build it higher on this side, and directly bridge the middle to that pile of gold."

After Seeing Mu Xueli finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up; it had to be said that this method was still very practical.

Only Wang Li frowned and said:

"The remaining path is at least 15 meters; we put 15-meter trees on this side, and there's no way to exert force. What if we hit something halfway and blow up a landmine?"

Upon hearing Wang Li's words, everyone nodded one after another, and Feng Chengmin also nodded and said: "Yeah, trees over 15 meters aren't small trees; those heavy trees, without someone standing in the middle and someone on the opposite side to receive, are indeed easy to hit the ground. If we hit a landmine, forget it."

After Feng Chengmin finished speaking, everyone fell silent again.

After another long while, Wu Dong looked at the gold not far away and said dejectedly:

"Should have brought more grenades; didn't think we'd run into this kind of thing. It's truly damn frustrating."

He Liang followed up and said:

"Bringing more isn't realistic either; there's no place to carry them on the horses' backs."

Ma Guoqiang also comforted:

"Yeah, those three tents and luggage already used three horses; where would we put those grenades?"

Without taking the bait of the three, Wang Shuai cursed:

"These bastards are truly damn capable of researching; setting up a pile of landmines to guard a pile of gold—who the hell thought of this?"

Zhang Shuya looked at the pile of gold and said helplessly:

"If we could call in a helicopter, it would be perfect; this little thing wouldn't be a thing at all!"

Zhang Shuya's words truly spoke into everyone's hearts.

It was just that this kind of unrealistic talk was just a fantasy; to put it bluntly, it was: "Thinking quite beautifully"! Just as everyone was looking at the gold within reach with dull eyes, yet at the end of their rope, Wang Shuai suddenly sat on the ground and said a bit excitedly:

"As long as you can think of a way for us to get this gold out, I decide..."

Speaking of this, Wang Shuai stopped again; fortunately, Wang Shuai had successfully attracted everyone's attention.

But speaking only half a sentence was the most annoying behavior. So, Zhang Shuya, who was already in a bad mood because she couldn't get the gold, immediately said dissatisfiedly: "If you have something to say, say it; if you have a fart, let it out. Don't just stand there and waste breath; are you sick?"

It had to be said that Zhang Shuya's little temper was truly ignited at a touch, and she didn't care about anyone.

Fortunately, Zhang Shuya also voiced everyone's inner thoughts, so the eyes everyone looked at Wang Shuai with were also in the appearance of "you deserve it."

After being scolded, Wang Shuai didn't care, but looked at everyone and said:

"As long as we can get that gold out, the share Xiao An said he would give me extra, I don't want it; let's split it equally."

It had to be said that this time Wang Shuai was smart and didn't include Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian, giving people the feeling that it was purely a personal act.

And the timing was just right; after all, the current situation was that the gold could be seen, but couldn't be touched or obtained.

Giving people an attitude of "you guys think about it, anyway I'm out of ideas," and also being able to show his urgency to get the gold.

To tell the truth, Wang Shuai's emotional intelligence and IQ were truly very high, and most importantly, he really didn't want to take more.

Because although the situation in front of them seemed unsolvable, everyone knew very well that a way would be thought of sooner or later; could a living person be suffocated by urine? The simplest way, as long as someone was sent back to bring another box of grenades, this problem wouldn't be a problem.

After Wang Shuai finished speaking, Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian immediately had a feeling of relief; it was clear that these two had also figured out some things.

Zhang Shuya was heard saying: "What? Showing off your generosity? I don't want it either, as long as we can get that gold out."

Just as Zhang Shuya finished speaking, Sun Nian immediately said: "And me, and me, let's just split everything equally; why bother with that special treatment?"

After Sun Nian finished speaking, she also looked at Wang An; of course, at this time, not only Sun Nian was looking at Wang An, Zhang Shuya and Wang Shuai were also looking at Wang An.

The meaning of these three was very clear:

"It's your turn to speak; hurry up and round out the image of the three of us!"

Everyone present, except for Wang Li and Seeing Mu Xueli who were too young to understand these human relationships, could be said to have understood what it meant.

Because before everyone decided to remove the hidden sentries, the performance of Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian was truly not good; their utilitarianism was too heavy! At that time, the feeling these two gave people was:

"If I go to risk my life, there must be a reward; otherwise, why should I risk my life?"

Although it was understandable for these two to think this way—after all, if people don't look out for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them—but given the situation of everyone at that time, these two were undoubtedly destroying unity.

Wang An decided decisively to compensate these three in exchange for letting Wang Shuai, Zhang Shuya, and Sun Nian take action.

And at that time, in order to take care of the face of these two, Wang Shuai changed his words temporarily and agreed to the distribution plan Wang An said.

But although everyone agreed one after another, what they were thinking in their hearts was not necessarily the same!

One had to know that everyone's thoughts were different; perhaps some felt there was nothing wrong with doing this, but undoubtedly more people didn't agree.

You contributed, didn't I contribute? Didn't Wang An contribute as the Gold Gang leader? How should these be calculated?

But fortunately, at this time, Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian also figured it out.

So, Wang An said with a smile:

"Yeah, this matter is on me; it's clear that I didn't do a good job as the leader, just messing around all day."
