Chapter 175 Going to the Market
After all, according to the comics, the ship that was originally scheduled to pick them up has now been discovered by Behemoth and driven to waters far away from the coastline, making it impossible to get close in a short period of time.
However, even if Zhang Chulan and the others could really leave, it would have nothing to do with him.
I must stay on the island!
It’s just a little troublesome to go back, but it’s not impossible.
Zhang Chulan's expression was uncertain, and he could only sigh helplessly in the end, with a hint of unwillingness in his voice.
"I give up, let's get out of here right now."
He quickly turned around and said anxiously to Feng Baobao beside him, "Sister Baoer, you are good at foreign languages. Please contact the captain who sent us and see if there is any other way."
We have to leave quickly, any longer will risk being discovered.
Without thinking too much, Feng Baobao immediately took out her cell phone and skillfully dialed the captain's number.
On the other end of the phone, the captain's voice sounded a little nervous and frustrated.
"I'm sorry, miss, the situation is really dire right now. Behemoth's people have sent out an advance team and are clearing out the outer ships. Our ship has been discovered by them, and since we don't have the status of an observation group, we can't stay there, let alone approach the island. As for when we can pick you up, I'm not sure yet."
After listening to this, Feng Baobao frowned and handed the phone to Zhang Chulan.
Zhang Chulan took the phone, his face became even gloomier, as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
He looked up at Ye Qing, a glimmer of help in his eyes, but it was quickly dispelled by Ye Qing's calm eyes.
"It seems that we are really trapped here."
Zhang Chulan muttered to himself, with a hint of reluctance and helplessness in his voice.
It seems that we can only accept reality and find other ways out.
For a moment, the entire space fell into a brief silence, and everyone was silently thinking about their next plan in their hearts.
The night was as dark as ink, and the sea breeze was a little cool, gently brushing across Zhang Chulan's face, but it could not blow away the irritability in his heart.
"gone!"
Ye Qing said this and walked forward.
Zhang Chulan looked at Ye Qing's back without even turning back, feeling mixed emotions.
"What the hell is this!"
Zhang Chulan couldn't help but curse under his breath, and the sand under his feet rustled as he stepped on it.
Feng Baobao stood beside him with her hands in her pockets. A hint of worry flashed in her eyes, but she also maintained her unique calmness.
"Zhang Chulan, stop scolding and save your energy."
Zhang Chulan sighed and turned to look at Feng Baobao.
"Baby, what sin have we committed? We finally found some clues, but now they're all gone."
Could anything be worse than now?
Feng Baobao shrugged, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "Who knows, maybe this is fate."
Isn’t there an old saying that goes “If it is destined to happen, it will happen eventually; if it is not destined to happen, don’t force it.”
Hearing Zhang Chulan's complaint, Ye Qing, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Zhang Chulan.
"Don't lose heart. Things are not hopeless yet. I remember there was a place marked on the map called 'Market'. There might be supplies we need, or even a way to leave this island."
Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again.
"Brother Qing, are you sure? This island is so mysterious. What if it's a trap?"
Ye Qing shook his head. "No matter what, we have to give it a try. It's better than just sitting here and waiting to die."
What a joke! I can be considered a person with clairvoyance and I know the entire plot very well. How could I make a mistake?
However, Ye Qing could only complain about this in his heart and could not say it in front of everyone.
Otherwise, if he said he had the system in his body, he would either be regarded as a madman or be taken away for research.
He doesn't want to see either of these two outcomes.
After saying that, Ye Qing took another step forward and led everyone forward.
Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao looked at each other and then followed.
In the darkness of the night, the figures of four people appeared and disappeared on the winding path, and the occasional whispers brought by the sea breeze drove away the irritability in everyone's hearts.
As Zhang Chulan walked, he thought to himself, if the market really had supplies and a way to leave, then they might still have a chance of survival.
"Brother Qing, are you sure the direction of the market is correct?"
Zhang Chulan couldn't help but confirm again.
Ye Qing nodded, his tone filled with unquestionable confidence.
"Don't worry, I've studied the map here. Although it's not complete, it's enough for us to find the market."
As we went deeper, the surrounding scenery began to change. The originally sparse trees gradually became denser, and a faint scent of seaweed filled the air.
"We must be being watched."
Just as Lu Lin finished speaking with a hint of worry, the air around them seemed to freeze for a moment, and the sea breeze, with a bit of uneasy restlessness, gently brushed across everyone's cheeks.
Upon hearing this, Barron raised his brows slightly, his eyes swept over the islanders around him with different expressions, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"That's fine. Since they're islanders, it'll be easier. We can find one of them as a guide and easily find the market."
The corners of Lu Lin's mouth twitched involuntarily, and she responded awkwardly but politely.
"Mr. Barron, your method is certainly clever, but... there are so many candidates for the guide that it's difficult to choose."
Haven't you ever considered that the people you meet here might not only be islanders, but also enemies?!
Ye Qing was much more direct, looking directly into the unfriendly gazes hidden in the dark.
"They are hostile to us and we have to tread carefully."
Barron nodded slightly and turned his gaze to a relatively open space in front of him. The terrain there was flat and the view was wide. It seemed to be a good place to deal with the enemy.
"The front is open, and if we really have a conflict with them, there will be enough space to maneuver."
However, things in the world often do not go as we wish.
Before Barron finished speaking, a dazzling light suddenly lit up in the open space ahead, like the first day, instantly illuminating the island shrouded in darkness.
Zhang Chulan couldn't help but swear, his tone full of helplessness and anger at this sudden change.
"What the hell is wrong! What's going on on this island? Can't we just leave it alone for a while?"
Just as everyone was stunned by the sudden light, the pursuers who were chasing them behind them seemed to have seen something terrible and stopped.
Then, he turned around and retreated without hesitation, disappearing into the night.
This scene made Zhang Chulan and the others look at each other in confusion.
