“Alright.” Lu Wuyai frowned.
“Really,” a young woman said. “All I know is that there were several huge explosions all over the world overnight, and then people online said they were nuclear explosions.”
"I don't know if it's true, but then the signal started to drop all over the world, and some messages were intermittent. Later I heard that there was a refuge on the world's highest peak, and almost everyone rushed there."
Lu Wuyai listened quietly, receiving the information while also checking its authenticity.
The woman who spoke didn't have a significant heartbeat, so she was probably telling the truth. But what worried Lu Wuyai was that the heartbeats of several people in the crowd seemed particularly unstable, especially when the woman was shouting. When...
“Tell me about the shelter,” Lu Wuyai suddenly spoke, aiming at a young man with a childlike expression on his face.
Suddenly someone called his name, and the boy's heart began to pound uncontrollably.
At this moment, Lu Wuyai narrowed his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing deep within them. This young man clearly knew something.
At this moment, not only Lu Wuyai, but many survivors looked at each other in bewilderment.
The young man took a deep breath, glanced at Lu Wuyai beside the car, and swallowed hard.
"I, I'm not sure."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wuyai walked towards the boy. Several people nearby tried to stop him, but were beaten unconscious by Lu Wuyai's punches and kicks.
"What do you plan to do?" The women moved closer, looking at Lu Wuyai with some fear. Just now, he had lifted an adult with one hand, but ultimately gave up. The adult was still unconscious.
Unable to dodge, the boy turned to run away, but was pinned to the ground by the general's claws, his mouth full of blood making him feel suffocated.
yes.
The boy was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder and bowels. At his age, facing a general, he made no attempt to hide his inner fear.
Lu Wuyai grabbed the other man's neck, and the intense feeling of suffocation that followed made the boy confront the fear of death.
With a bang.
The boy was thrown onto the hood of the pickup truck, and the loud crash startled everyone else again.
"Explain yourself." Lu Wuyai's deep voice echoed, adding to the gloom of the dim surroundings.
The boy was badly injured from the fall. For a moment, he looked at Lu Wuyai with fear in his eyes.
"I said helplessly, 'Please stop doing this.'"
The boy's legs went weak with fear. More importantly, he had lost control of his bladder and was reeking. He really didn't want to be stared at like a gorilla by so many people.
Lu Wuyai probably knew what the young man was thinking, so he carried him to the nearby forest, with several survivors following closely behind.
“Speak, I’m going to try and fool me.” Lu Wuyai looked at the young man and said, “I know you know something about the First Peak. Say whatever you want.”
Lu Wuyai's words made the young man take a breath, swallow hard, clear his thoughts, and then begin to speak.
“I also heard my father say it once. He told me that I had to reach the world’s highest peak within a year, or something terrible would happen.”
"You probably don't know why there have been so many nuclear explosions in the past year. It's absolutely insane in this day and age." The young man's eyes were filled with fear. Some news stories, even hearsay, reveal their true nature at a glance. Some things simply can't withstand scrutiny.
"What does your father do?" someone suddenly asked.
The young man thought for a moment, then said, "My father is one of the world's top 100 entrepreneurs."
"After the nuclear explosion, our company was requisitioned by the United States. I overheard my father mention that it was used to make parts for certain things."
"That's why I had the opportunity to climb to the world's highest peak at this critical juncture."
"What terrible thing are you talking about?" Lu Wuyai asked.
However, the young man shook his head. He wasn't confident about these questions.
In the following time, many people joined the discussion, focusing on the world's highest peak and the nuclear explosion.
Lu Wuyai stood quietly to the side, not only receiving the news but also observing the psychological changes in some of the survivors. Most of these survivors came from the United States.
There is no doubt that these people are not simple individuals, but even the information they possess is far from the truth.
Finally, Lu Wuyai told them some information about the deserted island, and the transaction was completed.
But just as Lu Wuyai and the others were about to leave, something unexpected happened.
Several men and women with yellow skin approached, hoping Lu Wuyai would take them away. Their words seemed to indicate that they had no hope of being rescued.
Several women looked at Lu Wuyai with bright eyes.
"Hmph," Su Xi grabbed Lu Wuyai and urged him to drive faster.
After a while, the green van started moving, carrying the other women, and headed deeper into the forest.
Around the cabin, the survivors stood silently for a moment, then began moving belongings from the cargo hold into the cabin. Whispers continued.
Here, Lu Wuyai was driving a green pickup truck. He had gained a lot tonight; it was time to go home.
Finally, at five o'clock in the morning, the group returned safely to the tomb.
As soon as Lu Wuyai entered, he found that Gu Yuxin was already leaning against the cave entrance, fast asleep.
"Wake up." Lu Wuyai tried to shake Gu Yuxin awake, but found that she was sleeping too deeply and could not wake up at all.
With no other choice, Lu Wuyai could only pick up Gu Yuxin and put her in the carriage to rest.
Back in the cave, the other women had already brought supplies and put away their Segways in the original planned location.
Now, there are many wooden shelves in the tomb chamber. In addition to displaying the herbs that Gu Yuxin usually grows, there are also a large amount of supplies collected in the past two days.
It was already very late tonight, and no one wasted time organizing supplies. After closing the tomb door, everyone lay down on their beds, exhausted, and quickly fell asleep.
As for Lu Wuyai, he calmed down before going to sleep. After looking at the tiger's picture for a while, he lay on the bed, like a sleeping tiger.
By the afternoon, Lu Wuyai, parched, got up, left the cave, jumped into the pool, and took a good bath.
It was already dusk when Lu Wuyai came out. He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling completely relaxed.
But when he looked up and around, he saw a large amount of black smoke rising from the forest, drifting in from different directions.
This discovery piqued Lu Wuyai's curiosity, so he ran back to the cave, grabbed a drone, and controlled it to fly towards the column of smoke.
The nearest plume of smoke was only a few hundred meters from the cave. As the drone flew overhead, Lu Wuyai could clearly see the scene below.
"It was a big fire." Lu Wuyai was secretly shocked. Nothing like this had happened on the deserted island last year.
There are flames in many parts of the forest now. The black smoke rising ahead is a byproduct of the fires being extinguished.
"If a fire were to break out, given the size of the deserted island, it would be a disaster for everyone."
It is said that water and fire are merciless. At this moment, Lu Wuyai felt somewhat uneasy.
After flying around the forest, Lu Wuyai found no new flames. As for the places further away, he couldn't concern himself with them for the time being.
Soon, dusk fell, and Lu Wuyai returned to the cave to prepare for his nighttime journey.
On their first two nights, they reaped a good harvest, including a green pickup truck and a large quantity of gasoline. This was enough to keep them on the desert island for a while.
Tonight, they're going to find a new plane and harvest another batch of supplies.
As dusk fell, Lu Wuyai closed the door to the underground cave and led the others in the direction they had taken the previous night.
The plane crash sites were all in the same area. At 9 p.m., Lu Wuyai quickly located a new plane using a drone.
It was a cliff in a rather unusual location. Lu Wuyai chose this spot because he felt that the location of the emergency landing plane was rarely visited.
“This is too dangerous. If you’re not careful, you could fall off the cliff,” Su Xi said, not wanting Lu Wuyai to take the risk.
Lu Wuyai shook his head. The plane wasn't very big. From the drone's view, the cargo hold was intact; it seemed no one had opened it.
“We had a lot of vehicles when we came out this time. If we can open the cargo hold of this plane and successfully transport the supplies in, we won’t have to worry for a long time.” Looking at the images projected by the drone, Lu Wuyai had already made a decision in his mind.
Seeing that Lu Wuyai had made up his mind, Tang Xin knew that no matter how he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.
Sometimes, Lu Wuyai is a very independent man, especially during this period. As his physical fitness improves, Lu Wuyai becomes more and more confident.
“You don’t need to worry.” Lu Wuyai patted Su Xi’s head, glanced at the plane, and already had an idea.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the cliff in the forest. Looking up, they could see the plane obscured by the moonlight.
At that moment, everyone could clearly see the plane's location. More than half of the fuselage was suspended in the air, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.
Lu Wuyai then took a breath and instructed the others to remove all the rescue ropes and pile them at the tail of the plane.
Later, Lu Wuyai used a lifeline to tie the tail of the plane to a rock on a nearby cliff, creating a relatively stable environment.
"Be careful." Before taking action, Su Xi warned Lu Wuyai repeatedly, while Song Xiaoyou and the others looked at him with concern.
Lu Wuyai nodded, patted the rope around his waist, and said, "Don't worry, even if the plane crashes off a cliff, I still have a lifeline here, don't I?"
To ensure everything went smoothly, Lu Wuyai tied the remaining rescue ropes to a large tree and attached them to himself to prevent any accidents.
In fact, it seems that Lu Wuyai had already taken the best measures.
Soon, Lu Wuyai successfully opened the cargo hold door. As expected, the materials inside immediately poured out, piling up on the cliff and forming a small hill.
But at that moment, as the weight of the cargo hold decreased, the aircraft fuselage, which had been maintaining balance, immediately tilted.
Squeak squeak squeak squeak.
The plane swayed on the cliff, making a tense sound.
Lu Wuyai stood at the entrance, turned around and told Su Xi not to move any supplies for the time being. The aircraft wouldn't make much noise. He planned to go into the cabin to see if there was anything more important.
"Be very careful." Su Xi pulled Lu Wuyai back, her concern warming his heart.
All right.
Previously, the supplies consisted mostly of blankets and clothes, along with a small amount of food. As for other items, they were all piled up deep inside the cargo hold.
Lu Wuyai looked into the dark cargo hold; there was no trace of anything inside.
Soon, Lu Wuyai began throwing boxes marked with red crosses out of the cargo hold. There were never many of these medical supplies, and these items were lightweight and wouldn't affect the aircraft's balance.
An hour later, Lu Wuyai, panting heavily, continued searching for bullets, grenades, and other weapons.
But he soon discovered that the rope was not long enough.
Lu Wuyai thought for a moment and realized that the plane was still stable and nothing would happen. So he untied the rope around his waist and temporarily hung it on a piece of metal on the side of the cargo hold.
This was quite dangerous, but Lu Wuyai was very courageous; he had a sense of urgency to acquire more supplies.
He quickly crept into the deepest part of the cargo hold and found several boxes of bullets and guns. However, judging from their appearance, the guns were not advanced and looked like old-fashioned firearms.
However, Lu Wuyai still took a few bullets and transported them all to the outside world.
"Lu Wuyai, where's the rope on you?" Su Xi's voice suddenly rose a few decibels.
Lu Wuyai stuck out his tongue, ignored Su Xi, and turned to re-enter the cargo hold, which made Su Xi outside furious.
At this moment, the plane started shaking again with a screeching sound.
Su Xi turned pale with fright, and the women next to her were also very nervous.
Inside the cargo hold, Lu Wuyai also felt the shaking of the fuselage. He quickly re-tied the rope around his waist, and his uneasy mood calmed down a little.
Once the ropes were stabilized, Lu Wuyai moved supplies again, but this time, he placed a large amount of supplies at the cargo hold entrance to balance the swaying fuselage.
Two hours later, Lu Wuyai appeared at the cargo hold entrance, and the girls breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the resentment in Su Xi's eyes, Lu Wuyai knew that she was worried about him.
"Move the supplies first, then hurry up," Lu Wuyai said. "Once the supplies at the entrance are reduced, the plane will definitely lose its balance."
That's without a doubt.
Soon, everyone sprang into action, clearing a large area at the entrance to the aircraft's cargo hold and then covering it with a layer of soft branches. After all, some materials are fragile and cannot withstand impact.
Five minutes later, as supplies continued to leave the cargo hold, Lu Wuyai noticed that the plane was tilting noticeably.
Ten minutes later, Lu Wuyai pushed all the supplies out from the entrance.
The next second, he found his body, along with the deck beneath his feet, moving upwards.
A few seconds later, the plane began to slide down the cliff, accompanied by a loud screeching sound.
A rumbling sound.
With a muffled bang, the plane finally turned into a sea of fire, burning in the forest below the cliff.
Looking at the plane wreckage in the forest, Lu Wuyai's tense nerves relaxed.
it hurts.
A sharp pain shot through his ear, causing Lu Wuyai to gasp for breath.
Turning around, he saw Su Xi with an angry expression, pinching his earlobe and scolding him for insisting on untying the ropes.
The other women were also looking at Lu Wuyai, and the worry in their eyes warmed his heart.
After explaining, Su Xi let Lu Wuyai leave.
Call up.
Touching his ear, Lu Wuyai almost burst into tears from the pain.
They then began tidying up the materials piled on the cliff. After working for more than an hour, they resumed driving and headed towards the wreckage of another aircraft.
On the way, Lu Wuyai sat in the back seat of the pickup truck, looking at the scenery outside the window, and seemed to fall into deep thought for a long time.
“Tell me, what was that terrible thing the boy mentioned yesterday?” Lu Wuyai suddenly remembered the confusion he felt last night.
Lu Wuyai's words quieted the atmosphere in the car.
However, Song Xiaoyou was the only one driving in the car. She didn't immediately reply to Lu Wuyai's words.
After a period of silence, Lu Wuyai heard Song Xiaoyou speak.
"Whatever it is, it will only cause more trouble now."
"We can neither leave the deserted island nor climb the so-called highest peak in the world. Some things can only be done one step at a time."
Lu Wuyai sighed, about to say something, when he suddenly realized that Song Xiaoyou's stuttering seemed to have completely disappeared.
"You should rest first. We'll call you when we arrive." Song Xiaoyou turned off the car lights, plunging the surroundings into darkness.
Soon, soft snoring echoed, and Lu Wuyai was truly exhausted.
In the dark forest, a pickup truck slowly drove ahead. Behind it, several hoverboards followed closely, carrying bags of various sizes. They had indeed hauled a lot.
But tonight, it's just the beginning.
Two hours later, Lu Wuyai woke up in the car and looked up to find it empty. He opened the door and stepped outside, only to find an airplane parked not far away. Su Xi and the others were constantly going in and out, moving supplies.
Lu Wuyai ran over and found Jin Xilu still collecting gasoline. Although the plane was severely "dismembered," the fuel tanks and cargo hold were intact.
"Did anyone notice that when the planes we discovered made emergency landings, no matter how severe the damage was, their fuel tanks and cargo holds seemed to have been preserved to some extent?" Kim Seok-rok asked.
The others looked at each other, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true.
Gu Yuxin touched the cargo hold and said, "It's because of the different materials."
Lu Wuyai picked up two pieces of debris from the ground, one from the cargo hold and the other from the ship's hold. They felt completely different to the touch.
“This plane also has some hoverboards and MPVs. The MPVs are very large, which is very important to us.” Gu Yuxin came out of the cargo hold, where a lot of supplies were now loaded onto the MPVs.
A seven-seater MPV is sometimes enough to let them ride together on a deserted island.
No one expected that someone would put such a big car in the cargo hold.
Soon, Lu Wuyai tried to drive the car out, only to discover that it was also powered by solar energy. At this point, it was completely immobile.
“This car is absolutely cutting-edge; I’ve never heard of it before.” She shook her head. She knew nothing about purely solar-powered cars.
