Then, the woman spoke mysteriously to the people around her in a low voice.
"I'm going to tell you a huge secret, and you absolutely mustn't tell anyone about this, understand?"
Upon hearing his words, the people around him all showed disdain.
"Hey Aunt Chen, stop spreading these alarmist rumors, okay? What do you mean don't tell others? If you know, why did you tell us?"
"That's right, that's right. As long as you don't tell, this secret won't get out of the camp. Once it's in your mouth, nothing is a secret anymore."
"Haha, Aunt Chen, just tell us already, stop keeping us in suspense. It's always the same old little things, we've heard them so many times before, they're nothing new anymore."
Hearing the disdainful looks on everyone's faces, the woman immediately became displeased.
"What do you mean? What do you mean? You're saying my information isn't accurate enough? Fine, then I'll tell you a shocking secret. This matter concerns Mr. Lu Yuan."
Upon hearing her words, everyone in the crowd couldn't help but look around.
After all, there are many stories about Lu Yuan circulating among humans, but not many of them are actually true, and now Lu Yuan has become a god in their hearts.
Therefore, they are very interested in anything related to Lu Yuan.
When the woman said that news about Lu Yuan had spread, everyone perked up their ears.
Seeing everyone's reaction, the woman immediately crossed her arms smugly: "Oh, you all seem quite interested. What did I just say? Didn't you say you weren't interested and didn't want to hear it?"
The people next to him shook their heads helplessly.
"Sigh, forget it, everyone, just forget about it and don't listen. Waking someone up in the middle of the night without explaining why, honestly, don't come to us next time."
Everyone seemed to have figured out the woman's attitude, and one by one they put their arms around each other's shoulders and were about to turn and leave.
Sure enough, before they even got up, the woman was already starting to lose her composure.
"What do you mean? What do you mean? I haven't even finished speaking, and you're already leaving. That's incredibly disrespectful!"
After saying that, she slammed the things in her hand onto the table and then said softly.
"I'm telling you, I saw Mr. Lu in Zone 3 today. He was busy doing something there! You absolutely mustn't tell anyone about this. I suspect there's something going on between him and Xiao Shan!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened, and they looked at each other with disbelief.
"Don't talk nonsense. Anyone with eyes can see how good the relationship is between Mr. Lu and Miss Xiaoshan. If you spread rumors here, we'll report you!"
"Exactly, they're a perfect couple, why are you always trying to sow discord? What's the point? Are you just envious that they found a man?"
"Aunt Chen, stop gossiping behind people's backs. How can you say such things? If word gets out, it will affect our entire camp. Honestly, you always bring up the most sensitive topics. You dare to spread all sorts of gossip!"
Everyone was clearly a little angry, after all, Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan really seemed like a perfect couple to them.
Moreover, Lu Yuan is now helping them through their difficulties, even to the point of falling out with his own father. Where else can you find such a good person?
They were getting quite annoyed that the woman was gossiping behind their backs.
Seeing everyone's reaction, the woman quickly said, "Oh dear! What are you all doing! Is this what I meant? I meant, what are they up to? When did I say they were arguing? You've misunderstood!"
Everyone turned around upon hearing this.
"Aunt Chen, is this for real?"
"Of course it's true! I swear on my honor!"
The woman, fearing they wouldn't believe her, immediately raised her hand.
In this apocalyptic era, with nothing much to do, people often use their personal integrity as collateral to engage in other frivolous activities.
It seems that this is the only way to pass the time when they are bored.
Lu Yuan was unaware that his family's situation had become the most pressing concern for everyone in the entire camp.
After all, everyone hopes that one day they can live a better life, so the condition of Lu Yuan's family is related to their life in the camp.
Then, the woman recounted everything she had discovered, and everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.
"What do you mean? You mean Lu Yuan specifically set up some treasure in that place?"
The woman shook her head: "They didn't say, and judging from Xiaoshan's expression, it seems they don't intend to admit it! Luckily, I saw it! Otherwise, we wouldn't even have a witness!"
After saying that, the woman pointed to herself with a confident expression, as if afraid that if she were to get involved in something in the future, others would forget her contribution.
After exchanging glances, they immediately made a decision.
"Let's all go take a look tomorrow! If it's treasure that Mr. Lu found, let's keep quiet!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Nothing happened that night. It seemed that the people in the camp did not sleep well. They worked too long during the day and their sleeping environment at night was not good.
Therefore, basically everyone is worried about cannibals appearing nearby at night.
Fortunately, there are very few ghouls to be seen in the camp now, but everyone is still a little worried.
Some started work, while others moved things.
Long lines formed again in front of the porridge stalls inside the camp, with people carrying their own bowls to get their food.
Aunt Chen and her group are now eager to go to Zone 3 to see what's going on.
So after getting their food, they didn't eat and headed straight for Zone 3.
There weren't many people in Zone 3 at this time, so the camp was quiet.
Taking advantage of this moment, the group of more than a dozen people sneaked over to the place Aunt Chen had mentioned yesterday.
Aunt Chen pointed to a spot in the distance and said...
"Look! That's it! I saw it clearly last night!"
The group of people looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
There doesn't seem to be anything special about that place.
If there's anything particularly special about it, it's probably that there are a lot of fallen leaves on the ground.
