In the small tunnel, Chen Jian and Wang Ping were almost moved to tears.
I was also affected by their emotions. Although I had witnessed the wonder of this place before, I still found it hard to believe that I was experiencing it again.
"Brother Sihai, can we take this gun?"
I nodded: "Of course you can, but don't take too much. You understand the concept of inflation, right? Those foreigners aren't very trustworthy."
Chen Jian nodded after hearing my words, rubbing his hands together as he looked at the wall full of guns, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
After more than two hours of struggling, we finally left through the small tunnel.
They can be considered to have returned with a full load.
We took a total of six guns. Besides the three of us, who each had one, I also gave Xiao Qiang one, Bai Wei one, and Mu Ta one. That was enough for us to protect ourselves.
After leaving the small tunnel, Chen Jian still looked like he hadn't had enough.
"I never imagined this deserted island would be even more amazing than I thought, with so many strange and wonderful things. But Brother Sihai, how did you discover this place?"
So I briefly told Chen Jian about my rescue of the wooden pagoda that day.
After listening, Chen Jian nodded: "But I'm really uneasy about leaving such a good place here. What if someone else discovers it by accident?"
Before Chen Jian could finish speaking, Wang Ping sneered, "I think this place might have already been discovered. It's also possible that there are many such places on this deserted island, but we just didn't know about them before. Otherwise, think about where Xiao He and his men got so many guns and ammunition?"
I already knew that Wang Ping was bold and meticulous. In fact, when I first learned that Xiao He and the others were coming to rescue me, I was also very puzzled and surprised.
After all, when Yang Rui and Xiao He separated, they didn't have much equipment left, and even their medicines were running low.
After they left like that, I actually thought that such a group of people might not survive long on such a cruel desert island.
But they had already left, and I had nowhere to look for them. Moreover, our situation was extremely awkward at that time, so that was all I could do.
Now that it's settled, with Wang Ping's analysis, I suddenly wondered if Xiao He and the others had also discovered such a place.
I remained silent because I didn't know how to continue. If Wang Ping's guess was true, then our current situation was not as good as we had imagined.
It's clear that Xiao He and Yang Rui came to this deserted island for something; they have a strong purpose, but we've never known what that purpose is.
Now that they have received ample supplies on this deserted island, under normal circumstances they would not pay any attention to us and should be going about their own business.
But now they are wasting time and even risking their lives to rescue us, which is really inexplicable.
With a gun in his hand, Chen Jian had long since abandoned all his random thoughts. At this moment, Chen Jian's smile stretched almost to his ears.
Seeing the worried looks on Wang Ping and my faces, Chen Jian was quite philosophical: "Oh well, what's done is done anyway. Who cares what Xiao He and Yang Rui are thinking? We have guns and bullets now. If they really want to come and attack us head-on, they might not be able to beat us. Besides, Xiao He and his men haven't come looking for us yet. They've probably been wiped out by those pirates."
Chen Jian's words were somewhat cold, but I had to admit that if that were really the case, then I would be relieved of some of my worries.
After all, I always had a feeling that Xiao He and his group would be a big threat to us in the future.
After loading the guns and ammunition, I concealed the tunnel from the outside once again.
To be honest, I was a little apprehensive. Who knows if this place will still exist next time I come back?
After leaving, we quietly returned to the camp.
But halfway there, they suddenly saw flashes of white light ahead, accompanied by rhythmic metallic clanging sounds.
The metal reflected the moonlight, emitting a dazzling and strange glow, and made a creaking sound when moved around, making it look as if something was in operation.
I suddenly remembered that we had seen a similar scene in the woods before, but I never expected to see it again here.
The situation ahead was unclear, so we immediately stopped and hid in the grass, too afraid to move.
I thought these things would disappear quickly this time too, but to my surprise, the rhythmic sound started and never stopped.
The creaking and groaning sounds continued, and Wang Ping, Chen Jian, and I stayed in the haystack for more than two hours.
Finally, the document couldn't stand it any longer and came over to me, muttering in a low voice, "Brother Sihai, I feel like something's not right with this thing. If it really is some kind of army or people, it can't just stay in one place like that, right? And did you hear how rhythmic their voices are? That means this thing probably has some kind of consciousness. Maybe it's just a machine. Could it be some kind of high-tech product that the pirates brought up?"
Even Wang Ping couldn't stay still any longer. After all, no matter how composed Wang Ping was, lying down for more than two hours was unbearable for anyone.
Moreover, the creaking sound was not far from me, and each sound hit my nerves, making me extremely nervous.
After going through so much, we are all exhausted. We originally planned to go back and get some rest after getting the guns and ammunition, but we are stuck here now, which is really annoying.
After listening to Chen Jian's analysis, Wang Ping gritted his teeth and said, "How about this, you two stay here and I'll go take a look. If it really is some kind of army, I won't be killed by them just because I have a gun. You two can find an opportunity to run away. If it's not an army, then we'll go and see what kind of thing is causing trouble there."
Upon hearing Wang Ping's words, I quickly shook my head: "How about this, let's test the waters with something, otherwise you'll just rush over there rashly. What if you encounter any danger and get injured?"
Chen Jian nodded in agreement: "Didn't you say there's something called a 'pathfinding stone'? We may not have other stones around us, but we have plenty of them. Watch me!"
After saying that, Chen Jian picked up a stone from somewhere and casually threw it at the source of the continuous noise. I didn't even have time to react...
