Chapter 716 Captain Bill
After Captain Bill jumped into the water, he immediately swam towards the black girl, Ge'er. In a moment, he swam to her side and helped her swim quickly towards the stern of the boat.
The explorers at the stern of the boat also hurriedly reached out and grabbed Ge'er, and Ge'er was quickly pulled onto the boat.
But Captain Bill had no time to get on the boat. The big crocodile that had just failed to hunt had surfaced again and rushed towards Captain Bill.
At this moment, sailor Achuan had hurriedly taken out a shotgun from the boat, loaded it with bullets, and aimed it into the water.
But the crocodile was too close to Captain Bill, and Achuan couldn't find a chance to shoot.
When Ge'er fell into the water, he dropped his backpack into the water. Captain Bill saw the crocodile rushing towards him, so he grabbed Ge'er's backpack and stuffed it into the crocodile's mouth, then took the opportunity to stab the crocodile's head with the dagger in his hand.
However, due to the shortness of the dagger and the thick skin and flesh of the crocodile, the hit did not cause fatal injuries, but instead made the crocodile become even more violent.
Captain Bill took the opportunity to flip over and jump onto the crocodile's back, trying to control the crocodile, but the crocodile immediately used its ultimate move, the death roll.
Seeing that Achuan was holding the gun but not daring to shoot, Lu Cheng walked over and snatched the shotgun from his hand. Without waiting for Achuan to react, he found the right moment and shot decisively when the crocodile rolled out of the water, hitting the crocodile in the head.
Because Lu Cheng chose the right angle, the bullet passed through the crocodile's head but did not hurt Captain Bill.
The crocodile was shot in the brain and its life was quickly fading away. The strength of its struggle immediately weakened a lot, and Captain Bill took the opportunity to float to the surface.
Lu Cheng casually handed the shotgun back to Achuan, then picked up the long pole beside him and handed it to Captain Bill.
Lu Cheng didn't want to care about the members of the expedition team, but Captain Bill couldn't afford to have any accidents, otherwise there would be no one to lead the way.
Although in the original movie, Captain Bill killed the alligator in the water with just a small dagger, there is no guarantee that this can be done now.
Moreover, according to Lu Cheng's biological detection system, the giant python chasing behind was getting closer and closer. If Captain Bill stayed in the water for a while longer, he might be attacked by the giant python.
Even for Lu Cheng, it would be very troublesome to fight against the giant python over 30 meters long with bare hands underwater.
Soon, Captain Bill grabbed the long pole that Lu Cheng handed over and quickly climbed onto the boat. He looked back at the crocodile that was shot in the head and floating on the water, and couldn't help but say, "Hey, Lu, your shooting skills are really good."
"You are amazing too, being able to fight this kind of crocodile in the water."
Captain Bill looked at the black girl who had just fallen into the water and said, "Hey, how are you?"
"It's okay, it's just my satellite phone that fell into the water."
"That's such a shame."
Ms. Shan looked at Bill and said, "Captain Bill, what you just did was the bravest and stupidest thing I have ever seen."
Bill smiled and said, "You rented my boat, so I have to ensure your safety. Well, stop talking. I think Miss Geer and I need to change our clothes first."
Everyone left, and Lu Cheng stood by the boat, looking at the crocodile corpse floating on the water behind.
The boat continued to move forward, and before it had gone far, everyone was busy preparing lunch at the bow, and no one noticed that the body of the crocodile at the back was suddenly pulled under the water.
At this time, besides Lu Cheng, the only one on the boat who could sense the approaching danger was the monkey "Xiaogang" squatting on the roof of the boat.
After seeing the crocodile disappear, the monkey hurriedly came down from the top of the boat, landed next to Lu Cheng, pulled Lu Cheng's trouser leg, and shouted in panic.
Captain Bill, who had just changed his clothes, came over, picked up the monkey, and touched its head: "Hey, little guy, don't be afraid, I'm fine, right? Mr. Lu, Xiaogang seems to be very kind to you."
"Really? Maybe it's because I gave him a banana before."
"No, I'm afraid it's more than that. Mr. Lu is not a simple adventurer. Ah Chuan has followed me for many years, and he didn't dare to shoot when he encountered the situation just now. But Mr. Lu shot decisively and accurately."
"Everyone has a past that they don't want to talk about. Isn't Mr. Bill the same?"
"That's right, maybe we were once the same kind of people."
Bill Johnson was actually a member of the US Special Forces. He had carried out some special missions, witnessed some things he didn't want to witness, and did some things he didn't want to do. Finally, he left the army, came to Borneo, bought a broken boat, and wanted to escape from his past self.
Moreover, Captain Bill has a Korean tattoo on his arm, which means a new beginning.
From this information, it is not difficult to infer that Bill was once a US soldier stationed in South Korea and should have witnessed some of the ugliness of human nature.
Therefore, after listening to Lu Cheng's words, Bill thought that Lu Cheng was just like himself, who had served in the special forces and was tired of killing, so he went exploring.
Afterwards, everyone prepared food and took out beer to calm the black girl down.
Bill couldn't help but complain: "For a flower, you are taking such a big risk, is it really worth it?"
Gordon Mitchell shook his head: "No, it's not just a flower. It's a magical medicine. Just imagine that in the future, everyone in the world will take a pill of this medicine every day. Even if a pill only costs one dollar, it is a huge number. When I think of this, I am willing to jump into the water and fight a crocodile."
Ah Chuan was a little curious: "How many flowers are needed to save the world?"
Ms. Shan shook her head. “It takes about 50 flowers to make one ounce of medicine.”
Ge Er couldn't help but complain: "Even if there were a football field of flowers, it wouldn't be enough for the experiment. The drug content is too little."
Captain Bill and Achuan both had their eyes on Jack Byron, the leader of the expedition team, but Byron smiled and said, "These are not a problem. As long as we can make a breakthrough in our research, we can grow blood orchids ourselves. Scientific exploration is like this. Before success comes, there will always be many people who come to pour cold water on it."
Lu Cheng didn't say much, just glanced at Jack Byron. This guy could be said to be the villain of the movie. In order to collect the blood orchid, he did not care about the safety of his companions at all. He even bit Gordon Mitchell, his partner of many years, with a poisonous spider after a conflict. Gordon Mitchell was poisoned and paralyzed, and finally swallowed by the giant python.
In the end, Byron even robbed everyone's raft and forced everyone at gunpoint to go through a snake den to collect blood orchids for him.
Of course, this guy's final fate was that he fell into a snake's den with the bag of blood orchids and was swallowed by a group of giant pythons.
At night, it rained heavily again, visibility was very low, the river level was rising, and the current became more turbulent. Most people had rested, but Captain Bill was still in the cabin, looking at the river ahead.
At this time, Jack Byron came into the cab and asked, "Mr. Bill, what's the situation ahead?"
"The situation isn't very good. If we continue to move forward, the risk will be very high. I suggest we turn around and go back to bypass this area. It will only take two or three days longer."
"No, absolutely not. The blood orchid will not bloom for long."
"If you must go on, add another fifty thousand."
"No problem, I'll give you another fifty thousand."
At this time, although Lu Cheng was in the cabin, he heard clearly the conversation between the two people in the cockpit.
Of course, Lu Cheng didn't intend to interfere with the development of the original plot at this time, as long as he could find the blood orchid in the end...
