Lu Yuan was still quietly observing them from a distance.
He didn't know whether these people were good or bad, or where they came from. He could only watch them quietly, wondering what they were up to.
After a while, Lu Yuan finally figured out what these people were doing.
It turns out these people were heading to a no-man's-land.
Lu Yuan had been inquiring about people in this field, but while in prison, he hadn't been able to find out what he needed.
All he knew was that once he got to this place, he could find someone with that skill, but it was quite difficult to find. Unexpectedly, by sheer luck, he encountered someone on the road.
Lu Yuan's face lit up with excitement. He looked around and, after confirming that there was no danger, he quickly ran out of the sand dune.
When they heard someone running towards them from afar, the group of people who were discussing how to fix the car quickly turned around.
When they saw that it was Lu Yuan who came, they all showed expressions of surprise.
They put their hands behind their waists as if they were about to grab their guns. When Lu Yuan saw this, he quickly raised his own hands.
"Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. I'm just passing by. I happen to be without a car. Can I hitch a ride with you? Don't worry, I'm not a bad person."
As Lu Yuan spoke, he moved closer to them.
They saw Lu Yuan approaching them and immediately stopped him.
They were worried that Lu Yuan was not only going to kill them but also to steal their car, so they absolutely could not park the car close enough to Lu Yuan, as that would be too dangerous for them.
It's important to understand how crucial a vehicle would be to a person during a time when they were ruled by aliens.
Then one of the people came over and stopped about ten meters away from Lu Yuan.
He was holding a gun, the muzzle pointed in Lu Yuan's direction.
"What's your name? And show me your ID!"
Lu Yuan had already prepared his identification documents.
This is a forged document; it can only be detected using a machine specially designed by aliens.
Therefore, Lu Yuan's document was convincingly fake.
He tossed his ID over, and the other person picked it up, glanced at it, and asked, "Your name is Lin Hao?"
Lu Yuan nodded quickly.
"That's right, my name is Lin Hao! I came from the mechanics' place near the prison. My car broke down on the way here, and I can't go any further. If I don't leave soon, I might be stuck on this main road. Please, brothers, take me with you! Is there something wrong with your car? I can fix it; I know a bit about mechanics!"
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, the group decided to let him go and see what was going on with their car.
However, their car was an SUV, which was a bit cramped for six people.
However, Lu Yuan didn't care; as long as he was on the bus, anything was fine.
After the apocalypse, everyone's physique was relatively thin. After enduring a year and a half of inhuman torture in prison, Lu Yuan had become emaciated. Even though the back seat could only seat four people, it didn't feel too crowded when he squeezed in with them.
The other party nodded and gestured for Lu Yuan to come over.
However, the gun was still pointed intentionally or unintentionally in Lu Yuan's direction to prevent the other party from destroying his car.
Lu Yuan opened the hood of the car and inspected the area emitting thick smoke. He then determined that in addition to a lack of water, there were some engine problems.
After briefly checking these issues and confirming that there were no other problems, Lu Yuan took the water out of his backpack.
"The water tank is empty, so I'm taking out my own drinking water. Please, since I'm being so sincere, give me a ride in the car!"
When the group saw that Lu Yuan had brought out such precious water, they all swallowed hard.
Lu Yuan knew these people were thirsty, and after hesitating for a long time, he decided to give them some of the water.
After all, Lu Yuan's dimensional space allows him to create anything at will.
Two large cups of water were drained from the bucket, and then the remaining water was poured into the water tank.
After each person took a small sip of the water, they all felt refreshed.
They've been outside for too long and have used up too much oxygen.
So the group quickly ran to the car and tried to start it.
Finding that the car could now run normally and the water temperature had dropped, they happily expressed their gratitude to Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan, sitting in the middle of the back seat, smiled, revealing a set of neat teeth, and said nothing.
The car was repaired, and they sped off towards the no-man's-land.
To enter the no-man's-land, you first need to reach a checkpoint.
The sky was slowly getting dark, and the temperature was starting to drop.
Lu Yuan tightened his clothes, feeling that there were drafts everywhere in the car.
The other people in the car were also shivering from the cold.
"Damn! It's so cold! We need to hurry! Oh, and you in the middle, you need to show your ID; the checkpoint needs it!"
Lu Yuan nodded and handed over his identification from his pocket.
As the other person took the documents, they suddenly asked, "Brother, you're not hiding something from us, are you? If the law enforcement finds out, we'll all be in trouble!"
Lu Yuan understood the implication in their words: they didn't want to get involved and wanted Lu Yuan to go alone to avoid implicating them.
After a moment's thought, Lu Yuan nodded.
"No problem! Thanks a lot! Please put it down over there!"
The other person laughed and then handed over the documents.
"Sorry, brother, it's not that we don't want to help, it's just that this world..."
"Yes, I understand! Thank you!"
"Hey, no need to thank me! We're all Earthlings! Let's help each other out! Um, stop over at that sand ditch up ahead and let Brother Lin get out!"
So the driver stopped the car in front of the sand ditch, and Lu Yuan opened the car door and got out.
A biting wind blew by, carrying sand and dust, making one wonder if the daytime temperature really existed.
The car honked its horn once and then sped off.
Lu Yuan sighed, picked up his identification, and continued walking towards the checkpoint.
Checkpoints usually have rest periods, after which they will no longer accept people to cross the border.
Lu Yuan hurried and finally arrived at the border.
