Chapter 131: Almost Dead
Chapter 131: Almost Dead
After saying goodbye to Lao Zhao, Lin Lin drove us home.
In the car, I taught Song Jue that if he wanted to join us now, he had to be obedient and not do anything sneaky anymore. We still needed an observation period.
Song Jue nodded and agreed: You will be my boss from now on and I will listen to you.
You have to work hard, otherwise who will support you?
I work hard.
He looked funny and cute, with big eyes, long eyelashes and a young face. I felt like I was seeing a boy walking out of a comic book, and I couldn't help but love him.
Suddenly, Lin Lin, who was driving, stopped the car.
I looked at him curiously and asked why he stopped the car?
Lin Lin pointed to a large pile of rubble in front and said that he saw some good things in there, which were sparkling.
We may not believe what others say, but Lin Lin’s eyes must be sharp. If he says there is, then there must be!
It's still early, so we can go home in a little while. Let's discuss it with Lin Lin and Song Jue and let them go down and take a look.
Leaving Bian Hui in the car, she will have the ability to protect herself. If anything happens, Bian Hui will not be in danger. Besides, it is not appropriate for a girl like her to follow us to do such rough work.
Afraid that she would be bored, I took out a book and handed it to her to help her pass the time, but I also reminded her not to let her guard down, as this was not the base and there were all kinds of bad guys outside.
After instructing Bian Hui, we headed towards the ruins.
Tell Song Jue to defend himself immediately if he encounters danger. In fact, I think Song Jue's ability is really strong. He can conjure up a shield, sword, bow and crossbow out of thin air. It's just that the child is not very proficient in his ability now, and he needs further practice when he returns home.
But I am also worried that this child has such strong abilities that he will definitely be a good murderer and robber, and I wonder if he will become a bad person in the future. After all, we have not been in contact for a long time, so I can only supervise him closely.
This ruin is also a reinforced concrete structure, and the previous floors were not low, so no one has come to dig it up. Only when you get closer can you see that this was originally a machinery processing plant.
The three of us got out of the car and headed straight for the ruins. When we got closer, I realized that it was an agricultural machinery sales company.
You can see its former glory, but now it has become a pile of ruins.
Because this building is made of reinforced concrete, no one can dig it open. Judging from the extent of the collapse, the agricultural machinery inside is probably scrapped.
In the past, when we encountered such ruins, Lin Lin and I were helpless, because the large pieces of concrete rubble were mixed with steel bars, so I was unable to move the entire brick debris. But now we have Song Jue, and this problem is easily solved!
As long as Song Jue uses his ability to absorb and decompose the steel bars at the joints, he can not only make them into steel plates but also remove the connections between the cement brick walls, so I can move the bricks easily.
When we followed Lin Lin's instructions and opened up the ruins, we saw a lot of farm machinery that had been smashed beyond recognition. Unexpectedly, in another area, which I thought was their warehouse, there were a few wooden containers. After we opened a corner, we found that they were full of floor tiles with metal spiral heads, and several brand new lithium-electric chainsaws!
These might have been made for garden construction in the past, and they were packed but not sent away. I thought this thing was great, and it would be dozens of times more intimidating than a machete as a tool to scare people in the future.
They took away several large wooden boxes in one go, which was a great bargain for us.
At this time, Bian Hui ran over and said that we made too much noise here. Although this road is not a main road, it attracted several people to ask what was going on. She temporarily evaded the question and asked us to be careful.
Bian Hui is right. It's hard not to attract attention if we make such a fuss here in broad daylight. That's enough. Let's go.
Lin Lin said that we haven’t taken the good things he saw yet.
I asked Bian Hui to continue keeping watch, and we followed Lin Lin's instructions and flipped forward for a while. When I put the large piece of concrete into the space and put it aside, this time I found a gap and saw a staircase leading to the basement in front of me!
It turns out that this equipment store is so huge. I asked Song Jue to wait for us upstairs, and Lin Lin and I went to explore downstairs.
This time I had the same feeling as the last time I went to the underground parking lot of Tianhaicheng Commercial Building. I was in this pitch-black underground space again. I took out my flashlight and searched around. Most of the tools here were packaged. After looking through a few, in addition to the ground tools we took away, there were also some aerial tools, such as a huge drone, which might be used for farmers to spray pesticides on the fields. It was still well preserved with the support of a wooden box.
Lin Lin told me to stop looking at that and just follow him. I followed him to a corner that looked like an office. Under Lin Lin's guidance, I found that a brick slab on the ground was movable. I quickly moved the brick slab away, and found a small safe inside!
Although this safe is small, I couldn’t lift it all at once. I had to put it in my space first and then put it on the ground to let Lin Lin see what’s inside.
Lin Lin looked at it for a moment and immediately shouted: Oh my god, Lao Huo, we are rich, there are so many gold bars and money in this box!
He couldn't see much of the other stuff.
We were shocked to find that selling a farm machine could earn so much money. Could this boss be doing something else?
Lin Lin advised me to stop thinking about it and go home first.
When I walked outside, I saw containers of large drones in the underground warehouse. How could I not want them? These things will definitely be useful in the future and I should take a few away. I can't just watch such good things go to waste.
But I made another fatal mistake. After I put several large containers into the space, the bearing point of the basement shifted, and the construction waste above collapsed immediately. In an instant, both of us would be buried alive. In this split second, I immediately pulled Lin Lin into my space lounge and escaped this disaster.
Phew, that was a close call.
Lin Lin blamed: If you keep collecting things like this, I will be killed by you!
After apologizing to him, I won't do that again.
During this period of time, I have studied my space lounge and discovered that I can use it to move around in the outside space. My space lounge is about 40 square meters in area, with a total width of four meters and a length of ten meters. That is to say, I can move up and down a maximum distance of ten meters. This distance is enough to save my life. By observing that there is a weak point in the ruins that is within ten meters, I can also pull Lin Lin out of the warehouse ruins.
After coming out and going back to the collapsed area, I found that the two children were standing stupidly in front of the rubble. Even Song Jue was howling, "Brother, are you dead in there..."
When they saw us alive, their expressions instantly changed from shock and disbelief to surprise, and they jumped towards us with joy. Bian Hui and Song Jue couldn't wait to hug us, and lamented that we had survived the disaster.
Song Jue stuttered in confusion and asked, "Brother Huo...Brother, how did you get out of there? Could it be... could it be that you can teleport?"
Facing his curious eyes, I raised the corners of my mouth slightly and said with a smile: "Haha, well, let's talk about this slowly when we get back."
To be honest, looking at these two children who were so concerned about our safety, I couldn't help but feel deeply moved. In such a dangerous and difficult environment, it was as if I had received the affection from them like their own family.
Tell them that I feel I have gained a lot today and I will celebrate when I get back.
