Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 336 Viewing the Sea

The sun was shining brightly, and the weather was perfect. Therefore, they encountered no special circumstances on the road, and Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei returned to Yangcai County in Linhai City in just one day.

Moreover, they were very lucky when they arrived here, as the sea was receding and the surging tides formed a surging line between heaven and earth, which was quite spectacular.

Therefore, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei successfully returned to Caiyang Mountain before dark.

As before, they drove the car to the top of the mountain.

However, they walked very slowly on their way to the top of the mountain, looking around aimlessly and even having their dog help them.

—The tide has just receded, and down the mountainside of Caiyang Mountain, there are always some fish, shrimp, turtles and crabs that are unable to return to the sea and are left behind in the mountains.

Judging from the grand gathering of seabirds in and around the mountains, it is certain that the area rich in resources is not only Caiyang Mountain, but also the land that was previously occupied by the sea when the tide came in.

The seabirds sometimes circled in the sky, sometimes swooped down, and some even stayed on the ground, taking over the food that was trapped in the shallows and eating happily.

As a result, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei caught quite a few seabirds.

In addition, we also picked up quite a lot of seafood.

Upon reaching the top of the mountain, the car was completely full, enough for the two Type A new humans to have a hearty meal.

They cooked all the food, stored all the energy in their bodies, and then took a bath.

After emptying the water tank and buckets from the vehicle, they drove down to the pond, filled the vehicle with water, and filled the buckets as well.

Afterwards, they returned to the mountaintop and each drank a cup of water. The water in the pool was sweet, cool, and tasted delicious.

"Ah! This is the taste!"

After finishing his water, Lu Xi'an couldn't help but let out a sigh.

No wonder the Hu father and son traveled all the way to Caiyang Mountain to fetch water and then return to Dongdao Island to make a living from it.

This water is truly wonderful!
“Delicious!”

Yao Wei chimed in.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two lay down to rest.

They found a movie to watch, lay down on the bed and watched it for a while. Suddenly, Yao Wei exclaimed, "This is so nice!"

Lu Xi'an asked, "So you like this movie?"

The movie is a romance film, titled "True Tears," which is quite melancholic and pure love. It tells the story of the innocent and tumultuous youth of young men and women, their joys and sorrows.

Previously, Yao Wei wouldn't have liked watching this type of show, but now she's gradually accepted it and thinks it's not bad to watch such shows sometimes.

Lu Xi'an always felt that Yao Wei was learning some kind of inexplicable knowledge when watching these kinds of movies.

Perhaps Yao Wei learned something useful from this movie, which is why she suddenly said, "That's great."

Lu Xi'an thought to herself that it was fortunate that this was a pure love drama, not some melodramatic romance drama, otherwise, if Yao Wei suddenly learned a line that said, "If I and Gouzi fall into the water at the same time, you save the water first," she would be in a terrible mood.

When the time comes, I'll say I'm a Type A new human and don't need to worry about you, or I'll save the dog first. I wonder if Yao Wei will punch me into the air with an uppercut...

Fortunately, when Yao Wei heard Lu Xi'an's question, she shook her head and replied, "I think it's great that we don't have to leave the car at sea."

Lu Xi'an was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Yes, that's great."

In the battle of Guanhai River, not only were all the new humans in Northern County wiped out, but not a single one of them was killed. From now on, they can rest easy and no longer need to mention the sea, nor do they need to hide and abandon the RV.

It's really great!
Thanks to Luo Ping, if it weren't for his insistence on coming to our aid, Yao Wei and I would probably be lost in the vast ocean right now.

The vast ocean is boundless, and its towering waves are beyond human control. If you encounter a typhoon, you might just perish at sea.

Thanks to everyone at Institute 923!
Lu Xi'an's eyes were on the movie, but his attention was no longer on the screen.

The flickering fluorescent lights inside the RV have unknowingly become a hypnotic light source.

Lu Xi'an gradually fell asleep.

Seeing that Lu Xi'an had fallen asleep, Yao Wei turned off the movie and said to Gouzi, "Gouzi, turn off the lights."

It got dark inside the RV until dawn.

When they woke up the next morning, they were full of energy and felt incredibly strong. They could easily fight Liang Laoda and Xu Ma again.

However, they stuck to their original plan and did not practice Yao Huo and Ye Wenxin's training methods together before the tide came in, but continued to practice as before.

This is no longer the village where the sick have recovered. There are only the two of them here, with no one else around to guard or support them. If they both become exhausted from training and someone suddenly comes knocking on their door, they will be in trouble.

Fungal stones are useful for healing wounds and have some effect on restoring physical strength, but not that much.

Fortunately, after the battle with Boss Liang and Aunt Xu, both of them gained a lot of insights. Now, even if they only train according to the contents of the booklet, they can verify the contents of the battle and have an improvement far beyond what they usually do.

So, you get more experience from fighting against strong opponents.

Lu Xi'an couldn't help but think this to himself.

For the next two weeks, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei maintained this exercise routine. Apart from that, they spent their time eating, drinking, relieving themselves, finding food, and entertaining themselves to pass the time.

These forms of enjoyment include, but are not limited to, watching movies, watching TV series, admiring the moon and stars at night, and getting up early to watch the sunrise.

They would also go to the county town to hunt for treasures, but the things in the county town had long been soaked in seawater and were basically unusable.

Perhaps the few usable ones were all snapped up by Xuan Xiaocao's people.

After all, Xuan Xiaocao's people used to come here regularly after the tide receded. Half a month passed in a flash. In the following days, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei couldn't predict when the tide would come back, so they stayed on the mountaintop and didn't go down.

On this day, a rumbling sound came from afar. Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei heard it early on, so they had a premonition. They got out of the car and stood on the edge of the cliff, looking east.

A grayish-white waterline rises rapidly from the distance, carrying towering waves that come from the horizon and cut through the originally azure sky.

The waterline rose higher and higher, getting closer and closer. In a short while, it had already overflowed the tidal dam outside Yangcai County and then surged into the county town.

The sea was torn apart by the city's buildings, some standing and some collapsing, and then the waves surged and piled up, the dampness even rising to the top of Caiyang Mountain, and a rain fell on Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei's heads.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei had no choice but to get back into the car and look out the window for a while.

The rain has stopped, and a rainbow appears in the distance, blending seamlessly with the vast ocean, a magnificent and beautiful sight.

"How spectacular!"

Lu Xian couldn't help but sigh.

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded in response.

The last time they saw the tide, they rushed up the mountain and didn't have time to look closely. Now that they've seen it from beginning to end, they feel that the arrival of the sea is also an extremely beautiful sight.

It possesses a breathtaking, awe-inspiring beauty that sweeps across the land.

The two got out of the car again, smelled the damp, salty sea breeze, and gazed into the distance.

The sun was nowhere to be seen on the horizon; the sky was a hazy gray, as if the water lines that had previously invaded the sky had spread out, filling the whole world with a misty vapor.

Do you think we'll see a mirage again this time?

Lu Xian asked.

"do not know."

Yao Wei shook her head and answered, then added, "Although I really want to see more, if there isn't any, seeing a rainbow would be enough."

"Too."

Lu Xi'an smiled slightly and said, "With such a beautiful rainbow to see, what more could I ask for?"

They didn't see a mirage after all. It seems that mirages are not a guaranteed phenomenon after the tide comes in; they were lucky to see one last time.

However, since they couldn't see Hu Dong and his son Hu Xiaodong in the mirage, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei could only stay there and wait to see when the two would arrive.

Lu Xi'an had anticipated that the father and son would definitely come. They had already established the Tan Shui business on Dongdao Island as a regular practice and a large-scale operation, so why would they be willing to give it up so easily?

"Let's take turns keeping watch here."

Lu Xian said.

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded, having no objection to Lu Xi'an's suggestion.

However, she made a request, saying, "I'll go first."

Lu Xi'an let her go first, while he returned to his car, tidied up the interior, and washed and hung up the clothes he had changed out of over the past two days.

Just as Lu Xi'an finished hanging up the clothes and was about to get out of the car to change Yao Wei, she suddenly noticed many red dots appearing on the Resonance Gene Scanner map, which had been open the whole time.

one two three four……

Lu Xi'an was silently counting the number of red dots in his mind when he suddenly heard the dog's voice reporting through the RV's speakers: "Ten new humans have been discovered in the southwest direction. Please be aware."

Lu Xi'an's heart skipped a beat.

ten...

Including Lu Laoshu and Dao, Luo Ping and his group should have exactly ten people on this trip.

Come to think of it, it seems that Luo Ping and the others haven't been seen going back for the past two weeks.

Furthermore, the routes of those red dots are indeed on a road within the Jiangbei City area outside Yangcai County in the west, heading north, and they are located precisely at the edge of the Resonance Gene Scanner map.

Lu Xi'an got out of the car again and went to the edge of the western cliff to take a look. The distance was really far, but from such a high vantage point, he could still make out the six tiny cars in the field of vision, lined up in a long, serpentine formation, moving northward.

Although those cars were extremely small, Lu Xi'an, a Type A new human, could still see them clearly; they were Luo Ping's cars.

How come you already have a car? It took you half a month to get back.
Lu Xi'an couldn't understand it, but he still got into the car and honked the horn as a way of greeting Luo Ping and the others.

Luo Ping couldn't hear it, but there were Type A new humans among them who could hear it.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei then heard the horn, which was Luo Ping and the others responding.

Yao Wei turned her head to the east and looked to the west.

"It's Luo Ping and the others."

Lu Xi'an smiled at Yao Wei and said, "They came from Binghao Village."

Yao Wei pointed to the sea to the east and said, "We've come this way too."
