Chapter 154 Jinjiang Exclusive

“What’s that sound!?”

"Did a monster come in? Are we going to be eaten?"

"I don't want to be eaten, wuwuwu——"

The victims in the cave were in a panic, their eyes were red, their faces were blue, and some were so nervous that they were on the verge of fainting.

The leader took a deep breath and whispered, "You stay here. I'll go out and take a look."

He picked up a stone from the ground as a weapon and walked cautiously towards the cave entrance. He kept looking up into the sky, but he didn't see any trace of the monster.

Did he really leave?

The leader noticed that there were several more large cloth bags at the entrance of the cave than before they came in. One of the bags fell apart, and some of the things inside were scattered on the ground.

It seems to be... brown rice!?

The leader was shocked all over and rushed over to carry back several packages without caring whether the monster was still there.

He quickly looked through the contents of the package and found that there was not only a lot of brown rice, but also some potatoes, dried mushrooms, and a bag of at least four or five pounds of salt!

When the leader found a small package from one of the packages and read the words on it clearly, his pupils trembled and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"How's it going? Is the monster gone?"

As soon as the leader came back, the other victims hurried to ask questions.

The leader didn't say anything, but just asked a few people to go to the cave entrance with him to carry back a few packages.

When the disaster victims saw these things, they were stunned and asked, "What is this?"

The leader, controlling his emotions, said, "It must be something left for us by a monster. There's food and salt in it."

"What!?" The victims were horrified.

Someone murmured, "Could it be that it wasn't a monster, but something sent by God to save us?"

The leader took out the packet that had cheered him up and said, "This looks like medicine. It says it has a fever-reducing effect. I'm going to give it to the unconscious person. There's also some powder for external use on the injured. You can use it if you need it."

After saying this, without waiting for the victims to react, he impatiently took the fever-reducing tablets and walked towards the unconscious patient placed at the back.

Some people subconsciously wanted to stop him, wondering what if those so-called medicines were poisonous.

But when the words came to his lips, he gave up.

Even without medicine, those people probably wouldn't survive, so we might as well give it a try.

What if he really survived?

Especially the relatives who had already despaired could not help but rekindle a glimmer of hope.

As a result of this effort, several people who had high fevers and were unconscious actually miraculously recovered from their fevers and woke up.

The leader's eyes instantly turned red as he looked at the young man who looked 50% like him and opened his eyes.

The relatives of others were even more excited and hugged their loved ones who were still in a daze, crying and laughing.

"Great! The fever is finally gone."

"I thought... Pah!"

Seeing this, the other injured people were happy for them and hurriedly picked up the trauma powder and sprinkled it on the wounds soaked by the rain.

While everyone was rejoicing in the cave, the sound of "clattering" was heard again outside.

The familiar sound aroused a strong shadow in the hearts of the victims, and their expressions became panicked again.

“It’s hail!”

“It’s hailing again!!”

"Don't be afraid, we are in a cave now, and the hail can't hit us."

"Yes, yes, thank goodness we found the cave. We are so lucky."

The victims, who had come to their senses, looked relieved.

The leader didn't think they were lucky.

He thought carefully about the Silver Monster's actions in driving them away. Perhaps the other party didn't want to eat them at all, but was deliberately driving them into the cave?

The purpose is most likely to save them.

The last time it hailstorm hit, more than a dozen people died because they couldn't dodge in time. This time, if it weren't for this cave, no one present might have survived.

The silver-white monster saved their lives!

As for whether the other party had considered that they were illiterate and could not recognize the use of the medicine and missed the opportunity to save people, the leader did not think there was anything wrong.

If you want to get good things, you naturally need to go through certain tests. Otherwise, how can you make it seem like the treasure is hard-earned?

The eldest brother, the chief, was extremely grateful that his father had sold everything he had to send him to a private school.

Otherwise, he might have lost his only relative today.

The leader told the others his speculation.

After hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense. Their fear of the monster disappeared, and was replaced by endless gratitude.

He could even predict hailstorms in advance and left them food and life-saving medicine. What kind of monster is this? He is clearly a Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!

The leader brought everyone to the entrance of the cave where the hail could not reach them, knelt down and kowtowed three times to the outside.

Then, without caring whether the other party could hear him or not, he shouted, "Thank you, Immortal, for saving my life! From now on, if you need anything, we will definitely let you send us orders!"

Lu Xuan had already left the cave at this time, but left a drone for observation, so he, Lu Chen, and the audience in the live broadcast room all saw the victims kowtowing and expressing their gratitude.

Lu Chen knew that they were saved and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

The audience who originally disagreed with saving people felt a little complicated.

They had to admit that the former was indeed more pleasing than being grateful to others from the bottom of their hearts or watching dozens of people who had done nothing wrong being smashed to death on the spot with blood all over their heads.

The amount of food left by Lu Xuan was not too much, but it was enough for more than 30 people to survive until the end of the rainy season.

As for the more brutal extreme cold season that will come later, he left a few extra machetes deep in his bag.

There is plenty of prey nearby, so you can always survive if you work hard.

If they can't survive like this, then we can only say that this is their fate.

Lu Xuan retracted the drone, changed the window parameters from one-way transparent glass back to transparent, and left the area.

·

In the next few days, Lu Xuan took his brother to several places and found many towns or camps where there were surviving victims.

Lu Xuan did not go down to contact any of them, but only recorded the coordinates of these places on the map of the aircraft, keeping them for future use.

Because the audience kept urging him to go down and take a look, on the fourth day Lu Xuan simply turned around and headed for a more remote and less populated area.

Cross the plateau to the barren desert or even the seaside.

The rain had just stopped when they arrived at the sea. A ray of sunlight penetrated through the thick clouds and fell on the sea, making the already beautiful blue ocean even clearer and brighter.

Lu Chen, who was seeing the sea for the first time, stared at the sea with his eyes wide open against the glass window.

This is so beautiful!

[The scenery is nice, comparable to the Tianchi Lake in Yunlu Mountain Range.]

[I think the sea is more beautiful. After all, it is vast and has a stronger visual impact.]

[Unfortunately, the oceans in ancient times were mostly blue, and only occasionally were other colors seen.]

[In this regard, our Star Alliance has more choices. We have seas of all colors, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and even a rainbow sea. That's truly stunning!]

Lu Xuan, who had seen a lot of the world, knew that the scenery before him was indeed a little lacking in interest.

If the weather were better, with blue sky and white clouds, and the sea and sky merging into one, it would be truly breathtakingly beautiful.

When Lu Xuan saw the comment mentioning the Rainbow Sea, he became quite interested in the unique scenery of the Star Alliance.

I don’t know if I’ll have the chance to see it.

"Brother! What is that? Is it a fish?" Lu Chen, who was staring at the sea in a daze, suddenly pointed ahead and shouted excitedly.

When Lu Xuan took a look, he first saw several fish fins on the sea surface, and then he saw the owner of the fins jumping out of the water and leaping into the air.

"Wow! What big fish! They are flying!" Lu Chen opened his mouth in surprise.

Lu Chen said: "That's a dolphin, a mammal, not a fish."

"Eh?" Lu Chen was confused for a moment and asked doubtfully, "Animals? Are there animals in the sea? Won't they drown?"

Lu Xuan: "No."

Lu Xuan's expression paused slightly, and he didn't know how to explain the difference between mammals and fish. The main reason was that this knowledge could not be explained in a few words.

Perhaps he should find an opportunity to give Lu Chen some popular science knowledge about nature.

With an interstellar civilization like him that can connect with highly advanced technology like the Star Alliance, it's impossible for Lu Chen to maintain the cultural level of the ancients, right?

No, before teaching natural knowledge and common sense, shouldn’t we also teach Lu Chen some enlightenment and literacy?

"Brother." Lu Chen continued to stare at the still-jumping dolphins and said shockingly, "Can this animal called a dolphin be eaten?"

Lu Xuan: “……?”

The corner of Lu Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, "I can't eat it."

[Hahahaha, brother, this is not something you can eat.]

Dolphins are so cute, but instead of wanting to cuddle with them, you only want to eat them?

[He had a pitiful face, but spoke such cruel words, like the whispers of a devil.]

[I'm reminded of the three classic questions from ancient times: Can I eat this? Does it taste good? How do I eat it?]

As the old saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. In a plane where there is no shortage of natural food, this question is not a problem.

Lu Chen said "Oh" in disappointment, and looked at the dolphin with reluctance, as if he had missed some delicious food.

Lu Xuan said: "...Although dolphins cannot be eaten, there are many edible fish in the sea."

So, don’t watch it, it’s really not edible and it doesn’t taste good.

Lu Xuan's gaze swept towards the bottomless ocean. With his excellent eyesight, he had already seen many small schools of fish in the sea.

There are a lot of river fish in his space. In addition to some dried sea fish and dried kelp bought in the city to satisfy his craving for seafood, he hasn't eaten freshly caught seafood since entering the apocalypse.

Now that we're here, we can't just leave to see the scenery, right?

Lu Xuan gave the intelligent system new flight instructions and said to Lu Chen, "Let's go. I'll take you down to catch some other delicious fish. We can bring them back for your sister and brother-in-law to taste."

Lu Chen clenched his fist excitedly: "Okay! Let's go catch some fish!"

The two brothers quickly moved from the aircraft to the fishing boat.

Lu Xuan checked the area where the fish were located on the radar, and after finding the right place, he threw the largest fishing net in his hand into the sea.

·

"Lu Xuan is back——!"

When everyone saw the aircraft gradually descending in the sky, their eyes suddenly lit up.

As soon as Lu Xuan and Lu Chen got off the aircraft, they were surrounded by a group of people.

"You're finally back! Did you encounter any danger outside?"

"Have you come across anything new? Tell us about it."

"Have you seen other disaster victims?"

"You've been out for a few days. What's your harvest?"

A group of little kids also pulled Lu Chen aside to ask him about his experiences going out in the past few days.

Lu Xuan didn't rush to answer, but asked, "Was there any damage on the day of the hail?"

Li Jing said with a smile: "We made preparations in advance, and not a single seedling in the field was lost."

Zhang Chengming said proudly, "We've already learned our lesson once. How can we let those damn hailstorms destroy our crops again?"

Ji Xiuling, who was listening outside with other female relatives, had a complicated expression, but was mostly relieved.

Not long after, the village chief, Lei Yan and Lu Qing, who were on the boat, received the news and rushed over.

Without waiting for them to ask questions, Lu Xuan said, "I recorded a lot of videos on the way. If you want to know something, you might as well see it with your own eyes." Then he put away the aircraft and signaled everyone to go back to the boat.

·

Boat No. 2, inside the restaurant.

The villagers who did not go out were having Lu Xuan use projection equipment to play the images recorded by the aircraft recorder for them.

Herds of cattle and horses roam the endless green grasslands;

It seems like there is no end to the barren desert, and you have to face the excitement of sandstorms while walking;

The ocean, calm and beautiful when the rain stops, raises the horror of raging waves when the downpour comes;

The villagers, who were initially muttering to each other, became quieter as they watched, their expressions changing with the scenery, revealing unprecedented shock.

Although the ubiquitous rain was annoying to watch, the majesty of nature revealed in the video did not diminish the huge impact on the villagers' hearts.

So spectacular!

At this moment, all the villagers clearly realized a fact.

It turns out the world is so big!

It turns out that there are so many magnificent scenery in this world that they have never seen in their lives!

It was beyond their understanding and refreshed their three perspectives.

After watching the video, Zhang Chengming and others were unable to recover from the stimulation brought by the video for a long time.

In the middle, they also saw Lu Xuan hunting and the episode of saving people.

Without Lu Xuan's much explanation, the villagers knew what he and Lu Chen had experienced in the past few days, and they also had an idea of what new supplies he had obtained.

When Li Tuo, Xiong Mao and others, who were engrossed in the content, asked if there was more, Lu Xuan said, "A lot. I left the equipment here. You can watch it anytime you want."

The videos just played were condensed. If you really want to watch all the content from the past five days, one day is not enough.

"Let's take a look!" Li Tuo said excitedly, "I have to watch all the content! Especially the part about the sea, I love it so much!"

Xiong Mao said excitedly, "I love the grassland! There's so much prey there! Cows, sheep, horses, and donkeys. Catching just one is enough to feed us for several months."

After others recovered a little, they joined the discussion.

In addition to discussing the scenery, many people also discussed the disaster victims that Lu Xuan drove away and rescued.

The video clearly recorded the sound of those people shouting "monster". Everyone felt sympathy for their miserable situation and couldn't help laughing.

Li Tie, Wu Cheng, Ge Yuan and others were also deeply impressed by the animals on the grassland.

Especially the Mustang.

Before the disaster, a cow was not cheap, and a horse was even more expensive. No family in the surrounding villages could afford a horse.

But there are so many wild, ownerless wild horses on the grassland!

Ge Yuan has served in the military and has a much greater interest in horses than others. When he saw the handsome wild horse king in the video, he couldn't take his eyes off him.

I just feel that if I can own such a horse, my life will be worth it.

Just as the thought came to mind, Miao Jinfeng heard Lu Xuan ask, "Ah Xuan, will the horse meat you got be sold at the grocery store? I've never eaten horse meat before, so I don't know what it tastes like."

Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Let's go tomorrow."

Ge Yuan: "..."

·

Back to ship No. 1.

Lu Xuan briefly told Lu Qing and Lei Yan about his gains.

In addition to the herds of cattle and horses he encountered on the first day, he later encountered herds of bison of different breeds and eventually obtained forty cattle.

Lu Xuan only took the time to deal with about ten of these cows when he found a place to rest at night, and he would continue to deal with the rest tomorrow.

The final amount of beef, beef bones and other beef products that can be obtained is estimated to reach 50,000 kilograms.

Since I had no preference for horse meat, I didn’t hunt any more of the ones I came across later, and the only one I prepared was the one I ate on the first day.

In addition, there are donkeys, wild sheep, and deer, all of which were not dealt with because the space was tightened.

Lu Xuan: "Tomorrow morning I will pick up one each and send it to the grocery store for the villagers to exchange."

Lu Qing said firmly, "What about the fish in the sea? You should have caught some too, right?"

Knowing his brother well, he knew that since they had gone to the beach, it was impossible for him to return empty-handed.

Lu Xuan smiled lightly: "I did catch quite a lot, probably around 20,000 to 30,000 kilograms."

Lu Qing and Lei Yan's eyes widened instantly, and they cried out in disbelief, "How could there be so many!?"

Lu Xuan: "The fish resources in the sea are much richer than those in rivers and lakes. As long as you find the right fish school, you can easily catch thousands of kilograms of fish with a single net."

Twenty to thirty thousand kilograms were just the harvest from six attempts to cast nets in different sea areas.

If he was willing to stay at the beach for a few more days and cast his nets more often, he could catch not only 20,000 or 30,000 kilograms, but even 200,000 or 300,000 kilograms.

Lu Xuan took out some of the fish he had caught and showed them to Lu Qing and Lei Yan.

Before, the only kind of dried sea fish he bought in the city was white pomfret.

This time he caught more types of fish, including white pomfret, mackerel, sardines, sea bass, etc.

Among them, the Spanish mackerel and sea bass are relatively large, while the other fish are of average size, probably because they are not in season.

But it's still edible.

There are also some scattered fish, shrimps and even some octopuses mixed in with the fish school, which can also be used to change the taste.

Lu Xuan took out a handful of fresh kelp and said, "I also got a lot of kelp and sea cabbage in the shallow sea area."

Lu Qing's eyes lit up, "What a good thing!"

The little kelp Lu Xuan brought back from the provincial capital last time had already been eaten up by making soup or mixing with cold dishes.

When she had a river fish feast a few days ago, she missed the taste of kelp in her heart, but she didn’t expect that Lu Xuan would bring back new ones in just a few days!

Lu Qing said happily, "With so many delicious things, why not have seafood tonight?"

Lu Xuan was thinking this, "Okay."

The Lu family’s dinner that day was indeed a sumptuous seafood feast.

All the fish that Lu Xuan caught were made into at least one dish in different ways. The sea cabbage was used for cold salad, and the kelp was used to make soup with pork ribs and shrimp.

The four members of the Lu family and hundreds of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room enjoyed a delicious meal.

In the evening, Lu Xuan drew the lottery that he had promised to give to the audience, and gave away most of the remaining processed beef and horse meat, including a batch of sea fish, and once again received a large amount of gifts and attention from new fans.

·

The next day, the women in the village came to the grocery store to exchange for new supplies without even having breakfast.

Some people planned to stock up on more beef, while others wanted to try the differences between sea fish and river fish, so they bought a lot of sea fish.

Some men had special feelings about horse meat and bought some with mixed feelings after some hesitation.

The women didn't care whether it was appropriate to eat rich fish and meat so early in the morning, and they used the newly acquired ingredients to prepare today's breakfast.

Many villagers had never eaten seafood in their lives, and were quite surprised after trying it for the first time.

Compared to the delicate taste of river fish, sea fish is relatively more robust, with noticeably firmer meat and a unique flavor that river fish do not have.

The key is that several types of sea fish have far fewer bones than river fish, making them very convenient to eat and very friendly to children who are prone to getting fish bones stuck.

Except for those who don’t like fish, almost everyone raves about seafood.

After dinner, I couldn’t help but go to the grocery store again to buy some sea fish to stock up.

Even families with a small number of people changed at least twenty pieces, and the Li family was even more exaggerated, ordering hundreds of pieces at once.

After more than fifty households had made the change, Lu Xuan’s seafood inventory was reduced by one tenth.

During this process, a small accident happened.

Xiong Mao is actually allergic to seafood.

After eating breakfast, I broke out in a rash and almost fainted.

But this guy likes the taste of seafood more than others, and he was very dissatisfied when he found out that he couldn't eat seafood due to his physique.

"Why can't I eat it? Doesn't Lu Xuan have medicine that can cure this problem? I'll just take the medicine after eating the sea fish!"

After saying that, he went straight to Lu Xuan and exchanged for a hundred sea fish, dozens of kilograms of kelp and sea cabbage, and also bought dozens of anti-allergic drugs.

Livestream audience: [Hahahaha, taking drugs and eating at the same time, really trying hard just to get a bite of food.]

Su Ying was also speechless about this.

But she didn't stop it.

Anyway, she is not the one who suffers, so she can eat it if she likes.

Nowadays, not everyone can eat whatever they want.

Su Ying touched Xiong Dabao, who had added more than one bowl of rice.

Fortunately, my son only inherited the same taste, but did not inherit Xiong Mao's sensitive physique, so he can eat it freely.

…

Two months into the rainy season, the rain has finally started to subside.

Torrential rain and heavy rain gradually turned into drizzle, the frequency of clearing up increased significantly, and the turbulent torrents became calmer.

There is no need to ask Lu Xuan for confirmation, as others already know the answer.

The rainy season is coming to an end.

The morning of the seventh day after returning from an outing.

Lu Xuan stood on the shore and took out a large inflatable object.

The hunting team members who were planning to go hunting in the mountains while the weather was good were wondering, "Lu Xuan, are these also water parks for children?"

Chen Rong stroked his chin and said, "Isn't this just an inflatable platform? It has nothing to do with a water park."

Xiong Mao: "It doesn't look like a kayak. I don't see any paddles. What's the use of this thing?"

Lu Xuan said: "You will know after you see it."

As he spoke, he took out one inflatable platform after another of the same type and placed them into the flood. He connected them together with metal chains and moved forward as he went. To the astonishment of the hunting team and other villagers who were attracted there, he created a water road from the hills to the next mountain in one breath.

Villagers: “!!!”

Is this even possible! ?

The audience in the live broadcast room also wanted to ask: Can you play it like this?! ?
