Chapter 31
The six contestants who got up early had a simple breakfast and fished in the sea for half a day before they were ready to set off. However, when they announced to the program crew, they fell silent.
"What do you mean?" Feng Shen gritted his teeth and stared at the camera. He had a bad feeling.
The program crew was silent.
"They don't mean that they want us to open it ourselves!" Shi Buxi guessed.
The camera remained silent, but nodded.
Everyone: ...
"I've only played with virtual ships," Tian Lou said with difficulty.
Shi Buxi gave an innocent expression to everyone looking at him.
Everyone understood.
Then Jian Xiaonan and Feng Shen both shook their heads.
"Let me give it a try!" Zong Ziyu said. He had been a soldier for ten years and had experienced almost everything that ran on the ground, flew in the sky, and sailed on the sea. He figured it wouldn't be difficult to understand the three thousand year old ships.
"It seems we don't have to cut down trees to make rafts." Shi Buyi also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Have you thought about this?" Jian Xiaonan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Shi Buxi nodded sincerely.
When Zong Ziyu said he'd test it, he meant it. Fortunately, he had plenty of experience, so he did a simple test run of the ship near the coast for about two hours before setting off.
Although the ferry was self-propelled, someone still had to monitor the ship's line to see if it was drifting. There were six participants in total, and after discussion, Zong Ziyu decided to conduct the initial training, at least to help everyone understand the ship's line diagram, and then they would be divided into groups to monitor the line.
Everyone thought it was okay, so they stayed together in the bridge building to study until it got dark.
"Xiaoxi is in the same group with me. Xiaonan is in the same group with Feng Shen, and Lu Feng is in the same group with Tian Lou. Is that okay?" Zong Ziyu asked.
"Okay." Feng Shen felt like his brain was about to fail and he was hungry. He said, "Tian Lou, go cook!"
"Okay." Tian Lou also stood up groggily. Mr. Zong had said so much and so much, and he couldn't digest it all instantly. But he recorded it and would listen to it a few more times after dinner.
"I understand." Lu Feng said.
Instantly, all the "students" looked at him in disbelief.
"Don't be so self-deprecating. I've heard that people with high mental strength also have high IQs." Jian Xiaonan said seriously, then looked at Tian Lou, "Let's go cook."
After saying that, the two quickly fled the scene.
Feng Shenyuan was also dizzy after hearing this and wanted to run away. But when he heard Lu Feng say that he understood, his competitive spirit surged up. He turned back and said to Zong Ziyu, "Have you finished learning? If not, continue."
"I've finished. Even if I explain it in more depth, you won't understand." Zong Ziyu said, then looked at Shi Buxi, "Do you understand?"
"No." Shi Buyi shook his head and then smiled, "But I recorded it. I'll listen to it slowly."
"Let's listen together!" Feng Shen walked to Shi Buxi's side. He had to listen to the class today.
Shi Buxi didn't care. He replayed Zong Ziyu's teaching until Tian Lou and others brought the food. After eating, he continued to study.
“Beep, beep, beep!”
As Shi Buxi watched the replay and tried to comprehend it, the terminal rang. It was Professor Terrence. The message he sent was very surprising: the vampire's body was completely rotten.
When transporting this body, Professor Terrence used an ultra-low temperature storage cabinet, so it shouldn't have rotted. Then Professor Terrence asked about the situation of the dozens of bodies that had been transported earlier.
Shi Buxi asked him to ask the producer, and the matter was left to the producer to handle that night.
After Professor Terrence received the news, he immediately contacted the producer. Unlike Shi Buxi, this time he did not use information, but direct communication.
"I sent it to the ship station on Blue Star." said the producer.
"You're here?" Professor Terrence was surprised. "Who received you?"
"The military! I don't know anything more than that." said the producer.
"How could there be someone from the military here? There's no one here." Professor Terrence immediately retorted.
"It was indeed a handover with someone from the military. It was the military communication that ordered me to be sent to the ship's station. The person who contacted me was also wearing a military uniform and took out his officer ID. As for his name, I cannot disclose it." said the producer.
"Impossible. There is no one else on Blue Star except your program team, our group of scientific researchers and the special forces team we brought with us." Professor Terrence said sternly.
"So, was that a ghost I saw?" The producer was also angry and shouted, "If you want to know anything else, you can ask the military."
"Which unit do you want me to ask?" Professor Terrence was also angry. This was simply impossible. Wait, he thought of a possibility, "That zombie in white, is it that zombie in white pretending to be him?"
"I'll say it again, the main brain has identified his identity and he is a serving soldier." The producer was also afraid of problems, so he confirmed the other party's identity during the handover.
Professor Terrence still shook his head, it was impossible.
Seeing that he looked distracted, the producer hung up the phone and let him figure it out on his own.
Shi Buxi and the others sailed the ship at sea until noon on the eighth day when they finally saw the port and almost burst into tears. Their oil ran out on the third day, their salt on the fifth, and they had to eat oil-free and salt-free vegetables and fish for two days. Now, the smell of seawater made them want to vomit.
"We're finally here. I love the earth." Feng Shen raised his hands exaggeratedly and bent down. A burst of heat in the air rushed directly to his forehead, "Wow!"
Finally I couldn't help but spit it out.
When the other people saw this, their throats also surged and they took several steps back.
"Drink some water." Shi Buyi calmly handed Feng Shen a bottle of water.
"Xiao Xi is still the best." Feng Shen sighed, took the water and ran away from this terrible disaster scene, then raised his head and drank the water frantically.
"Don't you think it smells bad?" Zong Ziyu asked with an unbearable look on his face.
"It's not bad, it's better than the stench of corpses." Shi Buyi replied. When he was in District 3, he had been harmed a lot. "It's all yellow here, I'm going to be buried."
Shi Buxi looked at the gray and dilapidated city, touched his face, and it was covered with sweat.
"Yes, it does look serious. According to the data, three thousand years ago this was an urban area with a suitable temperature. I think the environment has deteriorated further over the past three thousand years, and desertification has become more serious," Zong Ziyu said solemnly. Compared to District Three, the environment in District Two is even worse.
"If that's the case, we need to prepare enough water." Feng Shen finally finished vomiting and walked over to the two of them and said.
"We had planned to drive for half a month to pass through Area 2 and reach Area 1. Now it seems that we are not sure whether half a month will be enough." Lu Feng was also worried.
"Let's find a car first!" Shi Buxi said. This is the most important thing for them now.
"Yes, let's find a car and supplies first." Zong Ziyu nodded in agreement.
After discussion, the few of them decided to leave Zong Ziyu and Jian Xiaonan to look after the house while the rest of them went to look for supplies.
Before setting off, the other three all took the talisman given by Shi Buxi, two bottles of water, and a vegetable each, ready to eat raw if they got hungry. They absolutely wouldn't take any fish, not even if they were beaten to death.
