Chapter 1289 Rescue

Noviski took out his phone again, wanting to call for help, but found that there was no signal here.

"That… Young Miss, our satellite positioning is out of order, and the compass is not working well. We have completely lost our direction. How about we go back the way we came? At least there are still tire tracks now…"

The more he spoke, the more embarrassed he became.

He had boasted to the heavens before, but now he had to return in disgrace shortly after entering, which was truly embarrassing.

Feili frowned. Although she didn't want to see this result, losing direction was indeed a very serious problem. If they forced their way forward, not only would they not achieve their goal, but they might also end up somewhere unknown.

She turned back to look at Ye Bufan: "Mr. Ye, what do you think we should do?"

"Since we're here, we can't go back. We'll go in front and proceed in the direction I tell you."

Ye Bufan was not flustered. He pointed his hand to the left front, "This way is south. Just follow this direction."

Generally speaking, the most primitive method is also the most effective. Now that the satellite positioning System and compass are all out of order, using the sun to determine direction becomes the only option.

Of course, this method can only be used by him.

The trees here cover the sky and block out the sun, so others cannot see the direction of the sun at all. Only his Divine Sense can penetrate the obstruction of the trees and see the sun again.

Fortunately, they chose to enter during the day. If it were night, it would probably be a bit troublesome.

"This… this won't do, will it? You said this way is south, what is your basis?"

Noviski's face was full of black lines. He thought to himself, 'You're just a small Dr. Ye, not a wilderness survival expert. What makes you so sure that's south?'

"Just because I said so."

Ye Bufan said with a calm expression.

This kind of thing cannot be explained, and there is no need to explain it.

"Uh… Even the satellite positioning System and compass are not working. How do you tell directions? Who do you think you are? Are you the sun?"

Noviski had never really liked Ye Bufan. There was no other reason; he just felt that such a small Dr. Ye was completely unworthy of such high courtesy from the Lawrence Family.

Both George, the Family Head, and Feili, the Young Miss, were extremely respectful to this person. Why? What virtue and ability does a small Dr. Ye possess?

If he had just followed the team obediently, that would have been fine, but he had to stand out and point fingers. Isn't this setting people up for failure?

Thinking of this, he said to Feili again: "Young Miss, please don't listen to him. If we get lost here, then we are truly (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) done for…"

"Noviski, you are too rude to Dr. Ye."

Before he could finish speaking, Feili's face immediately darkened, interrupting him.

"Remember my words: from now on, you must be more respectful to Dr. Ye than you are to me and my father. Dr. Ye's words are commands; you just need to follow them."

"I…"

Noviski was full of frustration but had nothing to say. Since the Young Miss was angry, he could only obey. If it didn't work out, he would find another way then.

Thinking of this, he drove his car to the front, replacing car number 2, and then proceeded in the direction indicated by Ye Bufan.

The four cars continued to set off. There were no reference points for driving here; they relied entirely on intuition to move forward, and if they deviated from the direction, they would not be corrected immediately.

Driving inside the Death Grand Canyon was a hundred times more difficult than outside. Although these few cars were modified off-road vehicles, their speed still couldn't pick up, even slower than walking.

Noviski drove while sulking. He completely disbelieved that the direction Ye Bufan pointed was correct, secretly hoping that they would drive back to the starting point so he could see where this guy would put his face.

But the result disappointed him. The convoy proceeded very smoothly, with no abnormal situations occurring.

After driving for over an hour, an open space appeared ahead, and everyone finally saw the bright sunshine in the sky again.

Noviski immediately got out of the car and determined the direction based on the sun. The result was that Ye Bufan was absolutely right; they were indeed heading south, without any deviation.

"This is truly strange. How did that kid know?"

He was full of doubts. Even the satellite positioning System wasn't working, so how could the other party identify the direction?

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out the reason, finally concluding that it was just a lucky guess.

After a brief stop, the group continued to advance. After about two hours of travel, someone suddenly pointed ahead and shouted: "Look, there seems to be someone over there."

Everyone was startled. How could there be anyone in such a desolate place?

Following the direction of his finger, about five or six hundred meters away, they indeed saw a figure lying on the ground. From a distance, it looked like a woman.

Feili said: "Dr. Ye, let's go take a look. She seems to have fainted."

"Okay."

Ye Bufan nodded, and Noviski drove the car over.

Upon approaching, they found that it was indeed a woman, lying face down on the ground, wearing (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) a set of outdoor clothing, with the words "Scientific Expedition" written in English on her back.

"It seems to be a scientific expedition team that came here."

The Death Grand Canyon is famous. Although ordinary people dare not enter, every year there are still some brave scientific expedition teams who venture here for exploration. It now seems that the woman should be in this situation.

Confirming there was no danger, Feili stepped forward and picked up the woman.

Everyone saw the woman's appearance and found that she was a blonde Caucasian beauty. Although she was wearing a loose scientific expedition suit, it still couldn't hide her beautiful figure.

However, she looked a bit chapped and her complexion was very poor, seemingly having been unconscious here for some time.

Noviski said: "Young Miss, in my experience, she just got lost here, lacked food, and fainted from hunger. She'll recover as soon as she gets some food and water."

Feili ignored him. Compared to him, she trusted Ye Bufan's Medical skill more. She turned her head and said: "Dr. Ye, please trouble you to take a look at her."

Ye Bufan walked over and placed his hand on the woman's pulse.

As time passed, he slowly frowned, revealing a thoughtful expression.

"How is it? Dr. Ye, is she very serious?"

Feili asked somewhat nervously.

Even when he treated her father George last time, Ye Bufan only lightly felt his pulse, not showing such seriousness as now.

"It's nothing, just fainted from extreme hunger."

Ye Bufan said, withdrawing his hand.

Just then, Noviski brought food and water from the car. He pouted and said: "I already saw that. There was no need to pretend and take her pulse for so long."

After speaking, he unscrewed a bottle of clear water and poured it into the woman. Soon, the woman slowly opened her eyes.

"Where is this? Am I dead?"

She said weakly.

"No, you're fine. We saved you. You're just hungry now. You'll be fine after eating something."

Noviski said, bringing some energy-boosting sweets to the woman.

The woman seemed extremely hungry as well. She grabbed the food and devoured it, taking a few sips of clear water from time to time.

Soon, she finished everything Noviski had brought, and her spirit improved significantly, with some color returning to her face.

At this moment, the woman seemed like a different person compared to before, looking radiant and infinitely charming, a true beauty.
