"Have you noticed that the temperature doesn't seem as cold as it used to be tonight?" Gu Yuxin said.
Lu Wuyai nodded. He was out in the world all day long and was very sensitive to changes in temperature.
Ten minutes later, Lu Wuyai sensed that Song Xiaoyou had stopped.
Song Xiaoyou turned to Lu Wuyai and said, "Let's see if it's here."
At this moment, Lu Wuyai turned on his flashlight, looked around, shook his head, and said, "It's not here, but judging by the time, it shouldn't be long."
Gu Yuxin said, "When leaving, the container should be clearly marked."
Lu Wuyai also regretted it. He had been so excited when he first saw that word that he had forgotten many of the details.
Five minutes later, Lu Wuyai turned on his flashlight and finally found the target box.
Looking at the words above, Gu Yuxin frowned: "This only refers to weapons, maybe cold weapons."
Upon hearing this, most people's enthusiasm instantly died down.
“Go open it,” Gu Yuxin said. “It’s already here anyway, and maybe it really is a hot weapon.”
Lu Wuyai nodded, raised his gun, attached a silencer to the muzzle, and began firing.
After the box was opened, Lu Wuyai and the others did not go inside immediately, but waited.
The flashlight swept across the air, and outside the box, the four men saw a neatly arranged wooden crate. What was inside the crate would only be known once it was opened.
"I'll go in first."
At this moment, Lu Wuyai became suspicious. He wondered if the murderer had deliberately shown it to him.
There was a scent of orchids in the container. Lu Wuyai opened a nearby wooden box, glanced inside, and his heart sank.
"This is not a firearm."
"Digital Lu Wuyai said with a hint of helplessness, 'It's a cold weapon. There's a dagger in the box.'"
Although it is a cold weapon, its appearance is rather cold, and its health gauge is very large. At first glance, it appears to be a deadly weapon.
"We've come in too."
After confirming there were no traps, Gu Yuxin and the others entered one after another, but Song Xiaoyou remained at the door, responsible for the safety of the surrounding area.
"Let's see if we have any bows and arrows," Lu Wuyai said.
Bows and crossbows were more suitable for women, and their power within a certain range was even greater than that of bullets.
Soon, the search speed increased, and the temperature outside the container dropped sharply.
"Lu Wuyai, come and take a look." Gu Yuxin's voice suddenly appeared.
Lu Wuyai immediately stopped and walked over, only to find that Gu Yuxin had already made way for him, a look of surprise on his face.
"What's wrong?" Lu Wuyai asked.
"Look, it looks like a gun." Gu Yuxin's words suddenly made everyone feel energetic. Even Song Xiaoyou, who was guarding outside, couldn't help but turn around and take a look.
Lu Wuyai saw a black plastic box appear in front of Gu Yuxin. Inside were five Desert Eagles, and piled up next to them were yellow bullets.
"Get moving!" Lu Wuyai said, his eyes filled with excitement.
The boxes were heavy, and the women probably couldn't carry much of it. Most importantly, Lu Wuyai still had to rely on himself.
There are ten duffel bags in total, and Lu Wuyai can carry a maximum of five. Song Xiaoyou will lead the way, but Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuxin can still carry two duffel bags each.
Half an hour later, Lu Wuyai closed the container door, and the three of them followed Gu Yuxin toward the cabin.
Along the way, the wind picked up significantly, but fortunately it was a tailwind, so the pressure of walking was noticeably reduced.
Back in the cabin, everyone put their bags inside and rushed toward the containers without stopping.
And so, the four men went back and forth loading bullets all night. Fortunately, the box contained not only firearms, but also a considerable number of melee weapons.
At four o'clock in the morning, all the bullets and bombs were removed by Lu Wuyai and his men.
“We have to go again,” Lu Wuyai said. They believed the other party was an assassin who might be proficient in these cold weapons.
Inside the container, Lu Wuyai packed some exquisite crossbows into his backpack and threw the rest of the items onto the ship.
It was just dawn, and the container was empty. Lu Wuyai had even set a trap in the passageway, wondering if the other party would fall into it.
As they left the container, everyone's steps relaxed slightly.
"Tell me, is there a second container? Are there weapons inside?" Lu Wuyai suddenly asked.
"Don't jinx me. Do you think thermal weapons are cabbages?" Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes, her good mood vanishing instantly.
However, with so many firearms at your disposal, you must carefully consider how to use them. Storing them in containers is definitely not the safest option.
So after returning to the cabin, everyone began to discuss how to distribute these firearms.
Without a doubt, this place has the most bullets and guns. In addition, there are some RPG rocket launchers and boxes of artillery shells.
"Put them in some containers so you can pick them up and use them at any time." Lu Wuyai finally made up his mind and packed these thermal weapons into specific containers in batches.
With a bang.
Just then, Lu Wuyai heard several roars in the wind, guessing that the traps left in front of the containers had been triggered.
Hearing this roar, Lu Wuyai's lips curled into a slight smile. It seemed that this time, a few more people might die on the other side.
"Don't go out." Seeing that Lu Wuyai was about to leave again, Gu Yuxin stopped him in time.
He had been busy all night, without eating or sleeping. No one could stand it, but Lu Wuyai still insisted on going out to take a look.
Ten minutes later, Lu Wuyai arrived at the high-rise building where the container was located and looked down at the bloodstains on the ice crystals on the ground. It was a mark that could not be erased.
The bodies had not yet been disposed of. Lu Wuyai counted them and found that there were four bodies in total, and one was still alive, crawling on the ground.
Lu Wuyai looked around, but no one had come out yet. He even saw that the cargo hold entrances and exits were open, and the metal plates swayed in the strong wind, making a banging sound.
“I won’t keep killing them.” Lu Wuyai’s eyes widened, and he quickly saw that the person crawling on the ground had gradually stopped moving. He must be dead.
After hesitating for a while, Lu Wuyai jumped off the container and looked at the corpse on the ground, feeling a sense of relief.
He walked toward the lying corpse; it had been crawling just moments before, but now it was lifeless.
Just as Lu Wuyai was about to leave, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar, sharp edge out of the corner of his eye. He instinctively ducked to avoid it, then felt something flash across his scalp.
Lu Wuyai felt a chill run down his spine; he then realized those were iron needles. He had just experienced the same thing a few days ago.
The next second, the lying "corpse" suddenly stood up and ran forward.
Lu Wuyai realized what was happening and gave chase until he saw the other person jump off the cruise ship and quickly disappear along the anchor chain.
"He really switched jobs." Lu Wuyai gasped, but he hadn't expected the other party to be so decisive and choose to jump ship directly.
Lu Wuyai observed the area near the boat for another five minutes, just in case the other party returned.
Five minutes later, Lu Wuyai did not leave immediately. Instead, he hid in a gap in a container near the side of the ship, his eyes still fixed on the anchor.
Lu Wuyai stayed until the insulating effect of the thermal clothing wore off before leaving.
After changing into warm clothes, Lu Wuyai went to the cargo hold, but he wasn't in a hurry to get down. If there were other people outside, and the iron door closed after he got down, he would be finished.
So he closed the cargo hold entrance from the outside, then went back inside and brought Gu Yuxin and Jin Xilu out, since only a few people were awake inside for the time being.
Back at the cargo hold entrance, two women were guarding outside. Lu Wuyai walked straight down the ladder.
The cargo hold is quite deep, so even now it's a bit dark.
Lu Wuyai turned on his flashlight and carefully observed the area for a while. He found some food and fresh water. In addition, there were backpacks and suitcases, which clearly belonged to those people.
Because he was worried about the others, Lu Wuyai moved very carefully, keeping his body close to the cargo hold.
However, the cargo hold is too big, and you can't find anything for a while.
However, Lu Wuyai did not see any survivors along the way, so there should be no survivors.
Lu Wuyai threw the other person's backpack and suitcase out, intending to take them back to the cabin for a closer look.
At some point, Lu Wuyai looked back around. He wondered if he had misheard. There seemed to have been some noise just now.
After exiting the entrance, Lu Wuyai covered the cargo hold with the metal plate and quickly returned to the cabin with these items.
As dusk fell, everyone woke up.
"Take a look when you have time," Lu Wuyai pointed to the backpacks piled in the corner. He was too tired during the day and had almost forgotten about them.
Afterwards, everyone started cooking, and Lu Wuyai opened a bottle of red wine to celebrate the assassin being kicked off the cruise ship.
Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuxin rummaged through their backpacks and found some bottles and jars. They didn't know what they were for, but this was definitely not a good thing.
In addition, there are some sharp weapons, such as hidden arrows, rope weapons that resemble electrical wires, and so on, which can kill without drawing blood.
“I have this in my backpack.” Gu Yuxin rummaged through it and found several things that looked like remote controls, but they had very few buttons and he didn’t know what they were for.
Finally, there was some food and a few walkie-talkies, but the effect was far less than that of the containers.
"Give me all of these." Gu Yuxin collected the bottles, jars, and remote controls.
Over the next few days, the ice crystal storm weakened significantly, especially around noon, and even stopped briefly.
Here, Lu Wuyai and the others continued to collect information on the containers and decided to inspect all the containers in the next few days.
In addition, Gu Yuxin and others began building pulley systems to move as many items as possible off the pulleys.
It is very difficult to do this, but they must try, otherwise these supplies will remain far away from them.
Three days later, Lu Wuyai returned from the bow of the ship, his notebook filled with information about the last container. Everything was clear at a glance.
On one side of the boat, Gu Yuxin was reinforcing the pulley system, which was very fragile due to a lack of welding.
"The two hydraulic forklifts are usable, but we need to figure out how to unload them." Everyone was at a loss and couldn't think of a good solution for the time being.
As for the hydraulic forklift, Lu Wuyai had already used it. It was very convenient and could transport materials from ordinary containers.
However, without a vehicle, not only could they not take these supplies with them, but it also became a major problem for Lu Wuyai and his group to return to Shiqiu.
As time passed, the power of the ice storm weakened, and Lu Wuyai and his companions decided that they had to try no matter what.
On this day, Lu Wuyai opened the container and drove out the hydraulic forklift.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuxin and the others were also extremely busy. They found more than a dozen very long and sturdy hemp ropes in the cabin. When strung together, they formed two ropes hundreds of meters long.
Tie one end of the rope to the side of the boat and drive the other end into the ground with a nail to form a long slope.
Gu Yuxin and the others planned to use the long ramp to push the car to the ground.
Although it felt like it could succeed, no one was sure.
Soon, Lu Wuyai drove over in a forklift, with a black SUV parked on it, which looked very heavy.
Looking at the rope on the ship's side, Lu Wuyai was unsure whether the plan was feasible.
Before placing the car on the rope, Su Xi and the others made a parachute out of rags to control the speed at which the car slid down the rope.
A few minutes later, Yang Guoguan tied a rope around the off-road vehicle and used the barrier on the side of the boat to drive the car away.
The next second, the SUV slid down the slope at incredible speed. This scene made everyone's hearts leap into their throats.
Fortunately, the rag parachute deployed, successfully slowing the descent.
The bulky black SUV, secured by two ropes, slid downwards at an accelerating speed.
Although there is a parachute, it only slows down this acceleration. In fact, mass determines inertia.
Moreover, at this time, the wind would occasionally blow, shaking the ropes and causing the off-road vehicle to slide in an extremely unstable direction. Standing by the boat, Lu Wuyai and the others always felt that the vehicle would deviate from its course and eventually become a pile of scrap metal.
And so, amidst everyone's anxiety, the car landed safely.
Although the landing position wasn't ideal, it was still a success. The car spun 90 degrees, and the left door hit the ground. It doesn't seem to have caused much damage.
Lu Wuyai quickly slid down the rope, landing on the ice for the first time in many days.
He flipped the car over by himself, climbed into the driver's seat, started the vehicle, and found that there seemed to be no problem with it.
This is a solar-powered locomotive. After successfully starting, Lu Wuyai drove the vehicle around the cruise ship and found that there were no problems.
"It's time to unload." Lu Wuyai gestured to everyone on deck, instructing them to airdrop the prepared supplies.
Of all the supplies, they planned to deliver ammunition first, followed by fuel and other consumables.
If they had enough time, the women even planned to move everything away.
"Going home today," Lu Wuyai said with a smile. Since yesterday, the number of ice crystals falling from the sky has gradually decreased. Everyone is eager to go home.
After being on the ship for so long, everyone was already tired of it.
Soon, Lu Wuyai climbed onto the ship and continued to use a forklift to remove other cars from the downstream vessel.
Unfortunately, unloading in this way was still dangerous. Of the five vehicles originally planned, two were scrapped.
"What a pity." Lu Wuyai shook his head.
By noon, the trunks of the three vehicles were loaded with ammunition. Everyone got in and immediately set off towards the long-awaited rocky mountain.
Despite the months-long ice storm, the deserted island's surface did not accumulate large amounts of ice crystals. Cars moved across the ground at extremely high speeds without any obstruction.
That night, before dark, everyone finally arrived at the cave.
The moment the cave was opened, everyone wore a smile, marveling at the joy of finally being able to go home.
"Finally home."
"Su Xi, we're back."
"That makes sense, Xia Qingming."
As we walked through the tunnel, we could hear Rou Rou crying in the distance. The familiar feeling and warm atmosphere put our minds at ease.
But the moment everyone saw Su Xi, they all gaped in surprise and stared at Lu Wuyai in unison.
Lu Wuyai's eyes widened in disbelief; he never expected that Su Xi was pregnant.
“I.” Lu Wuyai was taken aback. When he came to his senses, he immediately stepped forward, looked at the shy Su Xi, and swallowed.
"It's been several months already."
"Four months," Su Xi whispered. She had been pregnant since she was three months along, but her belly was growing quite fast and she had developed a lot of stretch marks.
Lu Wuyai found it hard to explain the feeling. Looking at Su Xi's cheeks, he seemed to have become even more attractive after discovering she was pregnant.
"Lu Wuyai, you're going to be a father." Su Xi exclaimed in surprise, her eyes darting around as she glanced at the three women, Su Xi, Gu Yuxin, and Gu Yuxin, with a hint of anticipation in them.
However, everyone was gathered around Su Xi, looking very curious, and in the end, Su Xi pulled them apart.
"Don't crowd around the pregnant woman, the air quality is bad." Su Xi placed her waist in front of Su Xi.
They looked at each other, then decided to make room. After all, it was a cave, and the air wasn't as fresh as outside.
Lu Wuyai seemed a little nervous, constantly touching Su Xi's stomach through the air.
Gu Yuxin punched Lu Wuyai on the back of the head, telling him to eat quickly and then go out later.
"Where have you been all this time?" Su Xi couldn't help but ask. If she hadn't been taking care of Su Xi for the past few months, she might have even suspected that Lu Wuyai and the others were dead.
Upon hearing Su Xi's question, Su Xi immediately began to chatter on and on. Everyone occasionally added a few words, but the basic meaning was the same.
Su Xi and the others were very surprised to hear that Lu Wuyai and his group had stayed on a cruise ship for more than four months.
“I have to go out later; there are too many supplies in the container,” Lu Wuyai said. He glanced at Su Xi sitting next to him, carefully protecting her stomach.
After they finished eating, Lu Wuyai took Su Xi's hand and led her into her small cubicle. No one else disturbed them.
Under the dim light, Su Xi nestled in Lu Wuyai's arms. Originally, she hadn't missed him that much after being separated for several months, but after becoming pregnant, Su Xi found herself becoming a bit sentimental, which was completely different from her former self.
"I'm a little scared." Su Xi blushed because Lu Wuyai's hands were not behaving properly, always hovering on the edge.
Lu Wuyai gently kissed Su Xi and said, "Is it because of the pregnancy?"
