Chapter 137 Hostage on the Verge of a Gun



Watching the news on TV, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh. Although the second flood was not as severe as the first, it would take away more warmth.

Although the weather is not very cold now, with temperatures hovering around ten degrees Celsius, the temperature will drop to around zero degrees Celsius again when the second flood comes. At that time, people generally do not have enough clothes to keep warm.

During this period, a large number of people will freeze to death because they are far from their hometowns and cannot find much space to keep warm. They can only perish in the cold and desolate flood disaster.

Lu Yuan, who had locked himself in his room, entered the dimensional space. The little silkworm he had nurtured had now multiplied into thousands of silkworms after several months of breeding.

Lu Yuan collects the silkworm cocoons every time they spin their cocoons. Although there aren't many now, there are still a few kilograms, which is definitely not enough to make clothes.

Lu Yuan has stored seeds and cotton in the dimensional space, but he doesn't need them for the time being. After all, he has prepared a lot of cotton clothes for his family, so even if the temperature drops below zero, his family will have enough. There's no need to think too much about planting cotton for now.

Lu Yuan took out his ruler again to measure it. It had grown a little taller than last month. Although the golden fruit tree grew very slowly, Lu Yuan believed that the tree would definitely continue to grow, and it might even bear two fruits at once in the future.

Lu Yuan has harvested several hundred kilograms of fish from the pond. The pond is now 180 square meters in size, and he can catch a large number of fish every time. There is never a time when the net is empty. If fishing enthusiasts saw this, they would definitely love it.

Then he started shearing the goats and harvested another batch of wool. However, the goat wool wasn't very long, and after shearing it a few times, he only managed to get a basketful. Looking at the few bald goats, Lu Yuan had a plan to get a few sheep from outside, but he didn't know if sheep were extinct now.

After leaving the dimensional space, Lu Yuan arrived at Huang Huahua's house. Kong Hanting is now living with her. Although there are not many people in Zone 3, the living space is even smaller. In order to take care of each other, Huang Huahua took her in.

Lu Yuan knocked on the door, and Kong Hanting, who was wearing an ill-fitting long-sleeved T-shirt, opened the door. When she saw Lu Yuan, her expression was a mixture of surprise and delight.

"Hmm? You've arrived! Please come in!"

Lu Yuan glanced inside, then looked at the other person's sleeves, which were rolled up high.

"Oh, I'm doing laundry now. The rain has made the clothes a bit moldy, so I want to wash them to get rid of the dampness."

Lu Yuan nodded and went inside. Huang Huahua was cooking porridge at the time. When she saw Lu Yuan, she greeted him but didn't say anything more.

Lu Yuan sat on a small stool, picked up a cup of tea, took a small sip, and asked softly.

"Could you draw me a topographical map of that manor?"

Kong Hanting was surprised when she heard Lu Yuan's words. She quickly nodded and glanced at Huang Huahua, who hadn't noticed her. So she found some paper and pen.

As she recalled and wrote, she quickly sketched out a simple map on the paper.

"Because I was locked in a dark room for so long, I don't know much about what was going on inside. And from my memory, I know that this was how they used to regulate people."

The second floor was where wealthy people lived, and it also stored food and weapons. On the first floor, around the corner, was their warehouse, containing a considerable amount of food and various other supplies.

"The bodyguards live near the warehouse. It seems they have infrared detectors there. If anyone gets close, an alarm will be triggered automatically. The approximate location seems to be around here!"

The other party drew several lines on the paper to indicate that there was an infrared detection device there, warning Lu Yuan to be careful.

Lu Yuan took the simple blueprints, glanced at them, and a crude image formed in his mind.

"Okay, that's settled then. I'll be going now. Don't tell anyone else about this."

The other person nodded, and then whispered something before Lu Yuan left.

"You have to be very careful. They have guns there. I really advise you not to go. It's too dangerous for them. Did you leave something there?"

Seemingly realizing she had said too much, the other person quickly shut up and said softly, "Well... I wish you safety!"

Lu Yuan nodded and then left the room.

After he left, Huang Huahua peeked out from the kitchen and looked at the dazed Kong Hanting. A hint of sympathy flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say much. She just sighed softly when she looked at Kong Hanting.

Lu Yuan took the blueprints and memorized the map. After returning home and having dinner that evening, Lu Yuan disguised himself again, but this time he did not choose Da Huang.

The main reason was that the dog's personality was too violent; it would rush forward at the drop of a hat and sometimes wouldn't listen to his commands, which was worrying. Therefore, Lu Yuan chose to go to the manor alone.

When they were about 200 meters away from the manor, Lu Yuan quietly hid in front of a collapsed building and took out his binoculars to look inside.

Sure enough, the security measures in the manor were much stronger than yesterday. The sentries that were originally placed in the rooms were now guarding outside the gate. I don't know where they got a few more vicious dogs from. These big dogs were panting with their red tongues hanging out, and they were in particularly good condition. They were much stronger than the dogs that were on the verge of death that we encountered yesterday.
