The big man's attitude was careless, and he spoke casually. After he finished speaking, he walked to the SUV and reached out to open the door.
Steve stopped him and said, "Wait, sir, I think there's a lack of communication between us. Do you need help? Your motorcycle is broken? "
The big man said impatiently, "Yes, our motorcycle is broken, so we're going the same way as you. You're going south anyway, right?"
Steve was not a stingy man, nor was he indifferent. He was happy to help people who needed help on such a deserted island, but the big man's attitude made him unhappy.
The other side seemed to take their help for granted, and not only did they show no gratitude, but it seemed that if Steve did not help, they would lose their temper.
This made Steve unhappy. He said, "We're going south, but why do we have to go the same way? I don't know who you are yet … "
"We're Americans. We're compatriots," the big man interrupted him. The big guy interrupted him. "We Americans are in the Soviet Union's territory. We should help each other. We're not robbing you. We're just hitching a ride."
"Dillydallying like a sissy," someone beside him complained.
Steve frowned and said, "Hitching a ride should have the attitude of a hitchhiker. What do you mean now?"
The big man also frowned and said, "Do we have to be grateful to you for hitching a ride? Who doesn't need help when they're out there? Besides, we're compatriots. Isn't it natural to help each other? "
Li Du, who was watching from the window, was amused. How could there be anything in the world that was natural?
Someone came up to play the good cop. He stopped the big man and smiled apologetically at Steve, saying, "Sorry, my buddy has a bad temper and doesn't speak nicely. Please understand that we uneducated people always speak like that."
Steve asked, "What are you doing here? Why are you on a mountain bike in a place like this? "
The man laughed and said, "We came here to play, but there was something wrong with the motorcycle."
Steve said, "What's wrong with the motorcycle? Maybe we can help you fix it. "
Hearing his persistent questioning, the big man became impatient. He patted the window and said, "Hey, open the door and let us in. Why are you asking so many questions? Are you policemen? "
Li Du, who was in the car, was stunned. This was the first time he had seen such rude and unreasonable people. Who did they think they were? Become God? Humans' food and clothing?
Steve looked at the big man coldly and said, "We are not the police, but this is our car. We have permission to use it."
The burly man chuckled and said, "But if you want to use the car, you have to get our permission first!"
He pulled up his clothes and drew a gun from his belt, a shotgun with a sawed-off barrel.
He took out his gun and knocked on the hood of the car. "Come on, get out of the car. Give us three cars."
Seeing him pull out his gun without saying a word, Li Du asked in surprise, "What kind of world is this? Is Russia's security that bad? "
Since arriving in Siberia, he had seen more armed men in the past two months than he had seen in the United States in two years!
The driver said casually, "How normal is that? If you go to the Rocky Mountains or the Alaskan wilderness, you will find that people there carry guns with them. There is no police or army here. How can people not carry weapons to protect themselves? "
After the big man pulled out his shotgun, the others also pulled out their guns, shotguns, semi-automatic rifles, and some with submachine guns.
Seeing this, Steve immediately shrank back into the car, and the car window rolled up.
The windows of the cars behind them rolled down, and rifles were stretched out.
In addition to Brother Wolf's M4A1, Steve and Ford's bodyguards were armed with Russian-style rifles, which they had only been equipped with when they entered Severnaya Zemlya. They were all AK-9 assault rifles, the standard weapon of the Russian Army.
More than a dozen rifles were stretched out together, and the big men were stunned.
They were used to running wild in the wilderness, and the people they usually saw, even if they were armed, were at most carrying an old shotgun. They had more men and more guns, and they had always had the advantage.
However, this time they met a tough opponent. They had more guns than they did, and they had heavy SUVs to rely on. They could attack and defend. Even if they had ten times the number of men, it would be useless.
The big man spat and scolded, "F * ck, you win."
He put away his gun and said, "Help us fix our motorcycles, and we won't rob your car."
Li Du did not know how this guy's brain worked. His words and actions were like that of a retard.
Steve couldn't help but laugh. "Do you guys think you're emperors? Get out of the way, or I'll kill you! "
The big man was tough. He came up and punched the window and shouted, "Come and try, if you have the guts, come and try!"
Steve stopped talking nonsense. He lowered the window, took out a pistol, stuffed it in, and pulled the trigger. Bang, bang, bang!
The big men were shocked and quickly lay down to find cover, thinking that they were going to exchange fire.
Steve waved his hand, and the bodyguard who was driving stepped on the gas and drove away.
The motorcade rumbled away. When Li Du's car passed by the big men, the driver stepped on the brakes, changed gears, and slammed on the accelerator. The huge wheels spun quickly on the ground, splashing a lot of mud on the big men.
The big men were so angry that they fired.
However, they did not dare to aim their guns at the car. They only dared to vent their frustration and anger at the sky.
These people were rude and unreasonable, but they were not stupid or willing to die. They knew the firepower of the motorcade and knew that if there was a conflict, no one on their side would be able to leave here alive.
Although his side had won the skirmish, Li Du still felt displeased.
At this moment, he missed his hometown. Although it was not as developed as it was, it was much safer. These places were too chaotic, and there was no guarantee of life. What was the use of having money?
In the past, when he watched European and American movies and TV series, he saw that families in rural areas would always have guns. Usually, when people came to visit, they would bring guns to greet them.
However, after his experience in Siberia and Severnaya Zemlya, he felt that this was not an exaggeration. Never come to such a place without a gun!
They did not go directly to the polar forest area, but stayed in the middle of the eastern region, then set up camp and went south to search for meteorites.
After setting up camp, Li Du thought about it and suggested that they contact the veterans first and then bring the helicopter over. Their main force was behind.
They were not afraid of the veterans, but they were afraid of an insignificant conflict. If the veterans really misunderstood that they had something to do with the Red Devils because of the helicopter, it would be too unfair.
