Lu Yuan followed the other person's gaze and saw that the girl in the distance had expectations in her eyes, but also some fear. She wanted to run over and throw herself into her father's arms and cry, but she didn't dare to do so.
Lu Yuan stepped forward and gently patted Shi Quan's shoulder: "Alright, now that you've finished your work, go and get some rest with your daughter!"
After saying that, he gently took a bulging backpack from Xiao Shan's hand and handed it to her: "A few small gifts, please accept them as a token of my appreciation!"
When Shi Quan received the gifts this time, he felt that these things were rightfully his. He looked at Lu Yuan gratefully, wanting to say something, but his trembling lips kept the words from coming out.
He could only bow deeply to Lu Yuan, then grab his backpack and rush to his daughter's side, embracing her tightly. The scene of the father and daughter weeping together brought tears to the eyes of many.
The others inspected the plane again and found no problems. They towed the plane back into the cave and lit a fire inside to prevent it from freezing again.
With Plan A for leaving now completely settled, Lu Yuan and his family were overjoyed, chatting happily as they sat in front of the fire brigade.
"Finally, we can leave this awful place! We need to get going as soon as possible!"
Mr. Lu, in high spirits, puffed on a cigarette and glanced happily toward the back of the mountain.
This time, Lu's mother was very accommodating and didn't discourage him, saying, "Yes, I'll hurry up and prepare our luggage, as well as the food and supplies for the journey. This trip won't be easy!"
Grandpa sighed, hands behind his back, and sat down on a chair nearby: "Shouldn't we be prohibited from bringing pigs, cattle, and sheep on this plane? It's such a waste of these animals. We should have slaughtered them and had a good meal with them!"
Grandma is a sentimental person, and she was somewhat happy today. Although she had never been on an airplane in her life, the harsh environment here made her think of her hometown every day, and this time she couldn't help but shed tears again.
"It's good that you can walk, it's good that you can walk. I hope to go back to my hometown to see what the situation is like there now. Are all our neighbors still alive?"
Grandma successfully brought tears to the eyes of the women in the family again. Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile. They became particularly vulnerable in this environment, and would easily shed tears over some things.
...
Meanwhile, in the eastern area, a team of thirty people had been fully assembled. They were wearing the thickest and warmest clothes in the entire camp, and their backpacks were filled with food and water for the journey.
Sun Tian stood in front of the crowd and glanced at them: "This time I've given you the best things in our camp, so you must not let us down. After dinner tonight, you must set off immediately! You must find me another plane, understand?"
The team members straightened their bodies and shouted at the top of their lungs: "We guarantee to complete the mission!"
The team members were given the most sumptuous dinner in the East Zone camp during the apocalypse.
They devoured their bowls clean like hungry wolves, wiped their mouths with their sleeves, and then waited for orders at the cave entrance.
Sun Tian's eyes held a hint of anticipation as he watched these people deliver their mobilization speech. Just as he was about to issue the order to proceed, another person, wearing a heavy cotton coat and carrying a toolbox, suddenly approached.
"Boss Sun, I request to travel with the team!"
Sun Tian glanced at the other person but couldn't immediately tell who it was. However, he recognized the voice as Chen Yun's.
"Chen Yun? Aren't you being ridiculous? This journey is dangerous; you can't go!"
However, Chen Yun stubbornly refused, looking at the other person with a vengeful expression: "Why can't I go? I'm going this time!"
"But you're the only person here who knows anything about airplanes. If something goes wrong when you go, we might really lose our chance!"
"Hmph, if you send these people there, what if they lose some parts or bring back an even worse plane? Wouldn't that mean they've wasted their time? So this time I'm going with them to find a better transport plane for us!"
Sun Tian smacked his lips, pondered the other person's words for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll allow you to go today, but please be careful!"
In fact, Sun Tian could already sense the other person's resentment, but he felt that if he didn't let him go, this guy would definitely cause trouble for him.
Chen Yun nodded without saying anything more, then slung his backpack over his shoulder and stood to the side of the group, awaiting his orders.
In the cave in the western section, diagonally opposite the eastern section, several people had already changed into heavy cotton-padded clothes and eaten. Then, with a command, they followed and headed towards the entrance of the valley.
Qi Liang stood outside the cave entrance, braving the cold wind, and looked at them with a mixture of anticipation and expectation.
"You absolutely must get the plane here!"
Several deputies standing nearby also looked excited and waved at them. Whether their suicide squad members could see it or not, they didn't know.
Just then, they heard shouts coming from afar. Qi Liang and his deputy turned around and saw that the door to the cave in the eastern district had been opened, and the firelight illuminated the dim cave.
