“What you said makes sense. If you treat me badly in the future, I’ll make sure you leave with nothing,” Xu Lin said proudly, raising her chin.
"Brother, this is it. I got lost while looking for food in the mountains, so I went into this cave to spend the night and accidentally triggered a mechanism. It's full of supplies..."
Voices came from the other end of the cave, and Xu Lin and Zhou Pin immediately became serious.
"Where is the mechanism you mentioned? Open it and let us see the supplies."
Voices came from outside again. Xu Lin tugged at Zhou Pin's clothes, glanced outside, and gestured to Zhou Pin what to do.
“Don’t worry, we are currently in a secret chamber of the outer cave. The first time that person came in was an accident, and the second time the mechanism was in another direction. They won’t be able to get in anytime soon,” Zhou Pin said.
"Keep your voice down."
Zhou Pin spoke in a normal voice, which startled Xu Lin so much that she quickly covered his mouth.
"The sounds inside this sealed room cannot be heard outside, but the sounds outside will be amplified."
Is it really that amazing?
“Look at how we talk, the people outside aren’t reacting.”
The people outside were still arguing. One group thought the guide was talking nonsense, while the other group thought he had misremembered the location.
"Should I collect the supplies first?" Xu Lin asked, worried about potential problems.
"Okay, I'll install a camera, then we'll seal off this end of the secret room, go inside and wait for them to leave before coming out."
Neither of them wanted to indiscriminately kill anyone who wasn't in danger. After all, they were compatriots, and the other party had just accidentally discovered a stash of supplies that were unclaimed. Any normal person would want to keep it for themselves, especially in this apocalyptic world.
Of course, neither of them were saints and wouldn't just give away supplies indiscriminately.
People live off the land and water. The Daxing Mountains are rich in resources and less affected by natural disasters, so their people are unlikely to starve. However, there is always struggle for resources, which is why the two chose to go to the base instead of choosing to live in seclusion in the deep mountains.
The two had no shortage of supplies, but what they lacked was a relatively safe environment. The base was under official management, and no matter how the upper echelons fought for power, the lower-level people were not greatly affected. Compared to the outside world, they lived in peace and prosperity.
Getting back to the point, both of them moved very quickly, and the supplies entered the space in an instant. Zhou Pin's pinhole camera was also installed in the cracks in the rocks, and it would definitely not be found without professional detection equipment.
Finally, Xu Lin took out a large rock from her spatial storage to block the entrance, and then filled the gaps with mud to make it as realistic as possible. Mission accomplished, she went into her spatial storage to await further instructions.
Zhou Pin said the mechanism was quite hidden and would take at least an hour to find, so the two decided to take a shower first after entering the space, since they had been rolling around in the mud all day and were covered in dirt.
After showering, Xu Lin applied a hydrating face mask and, having nothing else to do, watched the recording coming from the webcam. Zhou Pin was researching his return route.
The space cannot perceive changes in the outside world, but it can transmit information through cameras. Therefore, to avoid being discovered when entering the space, the two of them always place a camera outside.
Otherwise, if two people suddenly appear out of nowhere when you come out of the space, not only will it scare the people outside to death, but they will also be taken away for dissection and observation.
After Xu Lin finished applying her face mask and washing her face, Zhou Pin was staring at the laptop on the table, watching the footage transmitted by the webcam. The people outside had already found the mechanism and entered the secret room.
"What's going on? I remember this place was full of supplies!"
