Chapter 57 Airplane



Earthquake-resistant life-saving capsules are not yet in stock.

As far as she knows, this thing was invented only abroad and has not yet been sold to foreign countries.

The life-saving capsules stored in the space were purchased online; they are portable life-saving capsules specifically designed for use in underground coal mines.

One of them cost her 100,000 yuan. This rescue capsule contains emergency rescue equipment such as compressed air self-rescue devices, resuscitation devices, and fire extinguishers.

It also has a dedicated environmental monitoring system for emergency evacuation. It is self-powered and can withstand explosions and toxic gas, and it is also impact-resistant.

The interior space can accommodate eight adults. It's designed in a rectangular shape, so in the event of an earthquake or volcanic eruption...

It's probably not as good as the oval-shaped life pods she saw online, but there's nothing she can do about it since she can't buy a professional life pod. She'll just have to make do with this for now.

She hoped the earthquake and volcanic eruption would come later, so she could improve her cultivation as much as possible and have better chances of survival in the future.

"Xiao Ning, come and try these dumplings, they're really well made. Sister Wang's skills are much better than mine. You can tell she put a lot of effort into making these dumplings." Aunt Li had already set out the bowls and chopsticks and was calling her over to eat.

"Okay, I'll be right there," Jian Ning replied, watching Jian Anping come out of the house.

"Brother, Xiao Lingfeng and I are going out this afternoon, so you don't need to go. Stay home and fix the glass insulation in the attic. I think the weather is going to change. I'll put the materials in the hallway for you in a bit."

"Can it be that fast? It's not even September yet. But it's good to be cooler. This heat is unbearable."

Jian Anping had never experienced the apocalypse and had no idea how terrible the cold was. If there weren't enough things to keep warm, many people would freeze to death in just six months.

Jian Ning quickly finished her meal, then went out and took a lot of insulation material, placing it in the stairwell. There were quite a few chickens kept in the attic; if they froze to death, there would be no eggs or chicken meat to eat.

Moreover, the vegetables also needed to be kept warm. While waiting for Jian Anping to come out and move things, she brought out quite a few bricks and cement.

“Brother, I don’t think these insulation materials alone are enough. We still need to keep the house warm by fire. This afternoon, you and Uncle Li can build a fire wall in the attic. I have plenty of bricks and tiles, so don’t be stingy.”

"Okay, I got it. Be careful when you go out. Don't come back too late, it's easy for things to go wrong when it's dark, visibility is poor."

"Yes, I know." Jian Ning finished handing over the chores around the house and was about to knock on the door of 1603 when Xiao Lingfeng opened the door and came out.

"This is a list of things I need to find. Take a look and see if there's anything missing."

Jian Ning took the paper and saw that it was covered with writing: alcohol blocks, gas cylinders, kindling, gasoline—a whole page was filled with writing.

"Let's go, let's go to the LPG station first. By the way, can you fly a plane?" Jian Ning was just asking casually, not really thinking he could.

"Yes, I can handle all kinds of aircraft without any problem. I've flown fighter jets." Xiao Lingfeng remained expressionless, his words carrying no hint of boasting.

"You're really amazing. If you can fly, how about we go to the airport and get a plane? A small passenger plane or a helicopter will do, just in case we need it someday."

Jian Ning wasn't just making things up; she had seriously considered it.

When a natural disaster strikes, the fastest thing to escape is undoubtedly the airplane, since all other forms of rail transportation are paralyzed. Only the skies remain unobstructed.

“Okay, let’s go to the airport first, and then come back to find other things.” Xiao Lingfeng quickly agreed to Jian Ning’s suggestion. Although he didn’t know how much Jian Ning could accept, since she had brought it up, there must be no problem.

The two reached an agreement, launched the assault boat, and Xiao Lingfeng headed directly towards the airport.

There were cars floating on the water and collapsed houses and various other obstacles along the waterway, so we didn't drive very fast. It took more than an hour to get near the airport.

The airport is located at a high altitude; from here, you can see the roof of the terminal building and many aircraft tail sections protruding from the runway.

"This plane must have been flooded. I don't know if it can still fly."

Looking at the scene before him, Xiao Lingfeng felt a pang of heartache. These planes were quite valuable, and now that they were submerged in water, they were basically totaled.

"Let's go in and take a look. If we can find an engine that hasn't taken in water, we might be able to repair it and use it. Do you think there are any other planes elsewhere? Are they all parked on the tarmac?"

Jian Ning didn't know much about these things either. She had no problem flying on a sword, but she couldn't understand such a large airplane.

"If we're lucky, there might be a plane under maintenance in the hangar over there, which should be usable. Let's go take a look." Xiao Lingfeng carefully navigated around the runway in the speedboat.

We drove all the way to the back of the airport, where there was a huge building, only a small part of which was submerged in water. From the outside, the doors and windows were undamaged.

"This is it. Let's see how our luck is today." Xiao Lingfeng turned and glanced at Jian Ning, who immediately understood what she meant.

He put his hand on his shoulder and used a wall-penetrating spell, instantly teleporting the two of them, along with the assault boat, into the huge house.

There was no ground, only standing water. However, a brand-new airplane was suspended in mid-air, supported by a frame, and was not soaked at all.

"It seems we're both pretty lucky. I'll go up and check if it can fly. If there aren't any major problems, you can put the plane away."

As Xiao Lingfeng spoke, he drove the assault boat to the bottom of the fuselage, intending to climb up the frame.

"I'll take you up; it'll be faster that way." Jian Ning grasped Xiao Lingfeng's arm, her spiritual energy flowing through her body. The two of them rose into the air and arrived at the airplane cabin door.

"Jian Ning, I've never really understood whether this is martial arts or metaphysics?" Xiao Lingfeng couldn't help but ask.

“You can think of it as a kind of martial art. If you want to learn it, I can teach you. My brother is a bit slow-witted, so it would be too much trouble for him to learn.” Jian Ning said, pursing her lips, clearly disgusted.

"Do we need a formal apprenticeship ceremony? What do you think of this airplane?" Xiao Lingfeng asked these questions very seriously.

"Airplanes don't count. If you really want to become my apprentice, then produce something that can move my heart."

Jian Ning smiled and pulled him into the cabin. Perhaps because it was under maintenance, the cabin door was not closed.
