257, Jungle City
At the base of the unknown mountain fruit, there is a small black rhizome, which looks fine, but it is too smooth to the touch, and the texture is even less like a plant.
Ye Yuan tried to dig out the rhizome, but found that there was a wire dragging behind it, and that rhizome turned out to be a miniature camera!
This discovery is simply appalling, you must know that this is an uninhabited desert island, why there are such cameras, and drag signal lines, this is obviously artificial.
Ye Yuan felt that the entire uninhabited island was strange, there should be many secrets hidden in it, and even the entire cruise ship was shipwrecked here.
Ye Yuan didn't tell anyone about the camera's discovery, and then under the arrangement of Liao Fang and Wu Chengzhong, more than 400 people climbed over a large dense forest and finally walked out of the jungle.
As the field of vision widened, everyone noticed that a section of the highway appeared in front of them, and modern buildings were faintly visible at the end of the road!
Everyone was stunned, originally thinking that this was a small island with no people, but in the middle of the jungle, there were traces of human buildings, so it was still inhabited here.
There will be hope that people will have contact with the outside world, and they will no longer have to eat wild fruits and sleep in caves.
The surprised, completely forgetting the previous rules, rushed over, and let out a vented cheer to welcome their hope of survival.
When most people approached these buildings, they found that this was a relatively developed city, with not only buildings, but also shopping malls and hospitals, but they were empty inside, and everything was dusty, and it looked as if it hadn't been inhabited for several years.
Liao Fang and Wu Chengzhong took everyone to explore the city for a long time, and found that this was really a dead city, there was no half a human figure in it, and there were not even traces of anyone living in it, but the food and goods were very complete, but whether the food was expired or whether the goods could be used was still uncertain.
"It's all a three-nothing product, but the flashlight can be used, and it doesn't look like it's been abandoned for a long time. Ye Yuan was looking for items in a larger shopping mall and found that many electrical appliances could be used.
"But these snacks are moldy, and many of them can't be eaten. Guan Xiao was searching for food, and he seemed a little depressed.
"These mineral waters are similar, there are floating objects on them, so I shouldn't be able to drink them. Ning Haiyue put down the mineral water bottle on the back shelf, also a little regretful.
In this no-man's land, before they figured out the situation, they still ate and drank, in addition to those wild fruits, the most important thing was water and food, but it seems that God still played a cruel joke on them.
After some exploration, everyone took some of the available supplies, packed them in their travel bags, and gathered together in the square in the center of the city.
After half a day of exploration, they only explored a small half of the city, but found that there are all kinds of commercial buildings and buildings, but there are no residential areas and residential buildings, but there are many factories and warehouses, which look like a super-large industrial area.
As the weather gradually darkened, Liao Fang suggested that everyone go to the large supermarket on the fifth floor first, eat something and rest for the night, and continue to explore the next day, he believes that a modern city like this must have a large number of communication facilities, if you can contact the outside world, it will be easy to do.
Everyone rested on the spot on three floors, and the blankets, mats, and even quilts in the supermarket were occupied, and many people did not get them, so they could only use towels to get closer.
As for the food, only the canned food is edible, but it doesn't taste so good, but it's better than nothing. The water can only be made with those barreled water, and it smells bad, but it is better than dying of thirst, and some of them are prepared to replace them with wild fruits.
As night fell, there were more than a dozen children in the crowd, playing around with flashlights from the supermarket, playing their favorite roles. Despite the journey of life and death, once it was safe to do so, the children began to play to their heart's content.
Except for the sound in the supermarket, the whole city outside was eerily silent, and the sound of that strange bird looming in the air was very uncomfortable to listen to.
After eating, the unwilling crowd continued to fiddle with their phones and try to connect to the signal, but it was all in vain, there was still no signal here, and the emergency number did not work.
It was nearly midnight, and most of the people were asleep, except for a woman of about forty years of age, walking back and forth, shouting the child's nickname, and it was clear that her child did not seem to have returned to her.
The woman anxiously inquired about the others, and except for a few who were still helping to figure out a solution, most of the travelers were very impatient, and they just wanted to get some rest.
The woman's interruption made several of the travelers impatient and began to drive the woman away, some of them scolding.
At this moment, Guan Xiao was sorting out electronic equipment such as flashlights and walkie-talkies, and when she saw the woman's anxious look, she couldn't help but step forward to comfort her.
"Sister, I've looked for it in the supermarket, I want to go outside to find my Yangyang, can you help me?" The woman was also sick and rushed to the doctor, in such a strange place, it was a bit difficult to ask a stranger to help find her son.
Guan Xiao seemed to be able to understand the mother's feelings, and agreed without hesitation, took out two flashlights and went out.
At this time, Ye Yuan and Ning Haiyue came to her side and said, "Let's go find it together." ”
Seeing that Ye Yuan and the others were going out, Liao Fang stood up from the blanket and came to them and whispered: "It's not safe outside, if you can't go out, don't go out." Don't let one person hurt you all. ”
Ye Yuan glanced at Liao Fang deeply when he heard this, but replied lightly: "Thank you for reminding, but everyone is on the same boat, so help if you can." ”
Ye Yuan, Ning Haiyue, and Guan Xiao walked out of the supermarket with the woman.
The night outside was very dark, the starlight and moonlight in the sky seemed to be obscured by the clouds, and the only light that could be illuminated was the flashlight in their hands.
After a simple exchange, Ye Yuan and the others knew that the woman's name was Xi Shuangyu, and her son's name was He Shengyang, who was only seven years old this year, and would be in elementary school after the summer vacation, and it was a coincidence that both their mother and son were from Xinhai and lived near Haidian.
This cruise is a graduation gift from my mother to my son, and I am afraid that I will not have so much time to travel after elementary school. I just didn't expect this cruise to turn out like this.
The four of them went all the way to the depths of the street, since they didn't find it in the supermarket, the most likely thing the child was outside, and for his age, it should be around here.
However, after looking for a kilometer along the street, there was still no trace of the child, and the child could not enter those closed factories and warehouses, which is strange.
Just when they were aimless, there was a strange cry in the sky, and the four of them looked up, only to see the strange bird in the woods hovering above their heads again, and when they saw that they had been discovered, they immediately swooped down and attacked them.
Xi Shuangyu naturally hugged his head and exclaimed, while Ye Yuan and Ning Haiyue were on the left and right, and the chains and fingers were shot at the same time, repelling several flying birds.
Just when Ye Yuan wanted to say that it was okay, he heard the howl of a beast in the alley on the left.
Ye Yuan and Ning Haiyue glanced at each other, and motioned for Ning Haiyue to escort the two women to follow slowly, while he rushed away.
Bypassing the factory, I saw a monster appear above a pile of discarded materials, a monster with two heads!
