Chapter 74 Chapter 74 I couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted
Everyone's attention was drawn to the dolphin that suddenly appeared in the camera, and they didn't notice that Chang Ruijia's expression looked a little strange for a moment.
However, as the rope tied to the GoPro was slowly carried away from the scene by the waves, even if they wanted to see the outcome of the final fight between the two monster fish, there was no way, and everyone's attention began to shift back.
"It's definitely the giant squid Chang Ruijia saw before," Lu Baian said thoughtfully as he hung up the video chat. "We saw it clearly this time."
"Indeed," Shifang nodded seriously. "It's all tangled up like a bow. If it weren't for the squid, it wouldn't be that flexible."
"Brother Yu," Lu Baian looked directly at Yu Jianyi, who was standing aside, wondering what he was thinking. "Do you have any ideas?"
Yes, yes, after hearing Lu Baian's words, the few people who were about to respond to Lu Baian's joke suddenly became energetic. The main purpose of their second use of GoPro was to let Yu Jianyi come up with a better solution to this monster fish.
However, the highly anticipated Yu Jianyi didn't directly confirm anything. He nodded slightly and said seriously, "It's a bit of a dead end at the moment, but I'm not sure if there's a solution. We need some time for experimentation and preparation."
"No problem," Lu Baian said, understanding Yu Jianyi's cautiousness. He wouldn't easily say anything about something so promising without first experiencing a few more experiments himself. "The monster fish underwater shouldn't experience any major changes in the short term. We still have time."
"Okay, then I'll go back and take advantage of the time to experiment with my ideas." Yu Jianyi didn't even want to stay any longer, so he picked up the oar and said goodbye to Lu Baian.
He knew that these people might discuss something else, but it didn't matter much to him. Without finding a way to strictly protect himself, he would not easily hand his life over to anyone. He would not make any changes whether he participated in the discussion or not.
For him, this exchange meeting was already a complete success, and the rest was the concern of the other people.
Fortunately, they all understood what Yu Jianyi was thinking, and Lu Baian had no intention of stopping him. He just watched his back disappear in the crowd in the distance.
"Brother Yu is still so anxious," Zhang Rui said helplessly, looking at Yu Jianyi's back. But then he looked at Chang Ruijia, who had fallen into deep thought after playing with her phone. "Little Sister Chang, I saw that you seemed to want to interrupt Brother Lu just now. Is there something wrong?"
Seeing the eyes that were looking at her along with Zhang Rui's words, Chang Ruijia pondered for a moment and said, "Lu Baian was wrong about one thing. The changes in the underwater monsters have already occurred."
"What?!"
The others were unexpectedly surprised by Chang Ruijia's words, especially Lu Baian, who had just vowed to comfort Yu Jianyi. He felt like he was slapped in the face in an instant.
But it is also true that since the monsters appeared under the sea, they immediately surrounded the largest cable for the safety of the people.
He neither easily angered the monsters under the sea nor hastily arranged for people to leave the market. He was still a little slow in sensing the danger in the sea.
But Lu Baian wasn't the type to care about face. When he knew Chang Ruijia had more information, he immediately looked at her humbly, "What happened? Did you encounter anything on your way back?"
Chang Ruijia nodded and told others with a serious face about the incident of the monster fish jumping out of the sea.
No one expected things to develop to this extent. When they heard about the monster's huge size after it leaped out of the sea, they couldn't help but gasp.
This is something I really can't let go of easily.
"It's okay. It shouldn't matter much if Big Brother Yu doesn't know about this kind of thing." Lu Baian thought about it and said quickly, "If we need to go out later, it should be our responsibility. Big Brother Yu just needs to focus on studying the giant squid."
"Although it may seem irresponsible to say this," Lu Baian paused, his eyes sweeping over the others, "however, we can't act as saviors right now. We can only deal with matters within our capabilities. Our most important thing is to deal with the monster fish under the sea."
"Right," Shifang said hurriedly, "The sea is in turmoil. We should take care of our own little piece of land first. It's good enough to ensure that our own lives are not threatened."
Although Zhang Rui didn't say anything, looking at her expression of approval, it seemed that she also agreed with what Shi Fang said this time.
Chang Ruijia's words sounded a wake-up call in the hearts of several people present. Even though their abilities have increased to varying degrees, the dangers on the sea cannot be easily resolved by them. It will only become more and more dangerous. They should not be easily fooled by the temporary stability in front of them.
"Alright, there's no need to discuss anything further." Seeing that the others seemed to have fallen into a slump, Lu Baian temporarily interrupted their thoughts. "Everyone should return to their posts, be more vigilant in your hearts, and ensure the safety of your subordinates."
After putting away the cables around him, Lu Baian fell behind everyone and walked slowly with Chang Ruijia.
"Thank you for traveling such a long distance to bring us such important news. Unfortunately, we seem to be a little disappointing and haven't been able to bring you more useful information yet."
Lu Baian thought, seeing how eagerly she rushed back to start the meeting, he should know what Chang Ruijia was trying to know from them, but unfortunately, because of their cowardice, they were unable to bring her more information.
Chang Ruijia waved her hand tiredly and didn't say much about Lu Baian's obvious apology.
Although she rushed back as quickly as possible in order to exchange goods between the markets, sometimes there might be other things that are more valuable than a piece of news.
For example, a friendship that I never tried to expect.
On her way back from outside, she had encountered many gathering places. However, in the face of this sudden incident, not all markets could remain peaceful.
It’s not because of anything else, but just that when something unexpected happens, not many people can focus on the safety of the entire group.
The people who were still under the sea suddenly lost their lives. The people on the sea not only did not take any action, but took advantage of the chaos to reap the "trophies", making the area that had been gradually settled into a mess again. Even the bloodstains on the sea surface greatly attracted the attention of the monster fish.
If Chang Ruijia had not been pushing at a very fast speed, the difficulties and obstacles she encountered along the way would have prolonged her entire journey infinitely.
However, the moment she stepped into the maximum radiation range of Lu Baian's communicator, the group chat page that had been silent for several days was filled with line after line of huge reminder words...
Every one of them reflected the concern of several people for her, which made her feel a little soft-hearted even if she was thinking about the exchange of interests.
As long as her personal interests were not involved, she thought she should try to get along with them more harmoniously.
"I'll find a way to contact the people in the other gathering areas as soon as possible." Seeing Chang Ruijia's tired appearance, Lu Baian hesitated for a moment, not wanting to disturb her rest any longer, and said quickly, "The information you brought us is enough. With this most basic information, we must at least bring back something for you."
Chang Ruijia wanted to tell him not to be so stubborn and not to send his own people out to take risks before finding a sufficiently reliable way to save their lives. She had seen too many such things along the way.
Unexpectedly, before she could open her mouth, Lu Baian had already hurriedly caught up with the people playing in front of the stone archway. The distance between the two of them kept getting closer, and I don’t know if they were discussing something.
Looking at the distance between the two of them, Chang Ruijia didn't say anything. She couldn't let go of the anxiety she had felt along the way even with Xiao Yi's protection.
Now she had returned to the safety of the market, and she had been downloading two more GoPros in a row. Her relaxed mind almost made her unable to open her eyes, and the fatigue of the past few days suddenly flooded her heart.
Never mind, they wouldn't make such a hasty decision about the development of the market. After thinking about it, Chang Ruijia got up and rushed back to the settlement area. If there were no special circumstances this time, she would definitely sleep well for a few days and nights.
Since she left the settlement, it seemed that the entire settlement had begun to look very different. Chang Ruijia couldn't help but wonder when she accidentally glanced at it as she passed by the gate of the settlement.
But she didn't have time to pay attention to these things now. She hurried back to a corner that was originally reserved for her, directly lowered the protective cable around the bed, and then dived into the tent.
She slept so soundly that she felt as if she had forgotten something. However, the strong sleepiness came over her all of a sudden and she had no time to remember anything.
However, in her dream, she always felt as if someone was making something noise next to her, but the sound did not last long. It seemed as if someone around her reminded her of something, and then the sound suddenly subsided.
The brows that were about to frown relaxed instantly, Chang Ruijia hugged her small blanket tightly and rubbed it, and once again went for a date with Zhou Gong.
When she regained consciousness, Chang Ruijia felt her mind was in such a mess that she had no idea what year it was. She glanced around the blackout tent but couldn't tell what time it was.
However, there seemed to be some rustling sounds around the tent, so it shouldn't be the middle of the night when there's no one around.
When she finally relaxed her sleepy eyes and crawled out of the tent, she was stunned by the grand scene in front of her as soon as she looked up.
She didn't know when, but the floating object docking areas around her bed, which had long been moved out, had changed their appearance, and were even different from before she went into the tent to rest.
"Sister Chang, have you had a good rest?" Zhong Yuan, who happened to be supervising nearby, looked at Chang Ruijia who came out and said with a smile.
