Chapter 70:
Two days later, Dr. Yan and the maid Wen Lan brought three young workers to the entrance of a strange canyon.
Although it looks far less safe than a city or a village, and looks full of primitive atmosphere from the outside, judging from the car prints at the entrance of this canyon and the traces of frequent traffic, it is very likely that this is what they are looking for. sanctuary.
Because at this stage, the natural disaster they are facing is the storm.
And such a very deep canyon is the most likely place to avoid storms from an environmental point of view.
Judging from the empty sound inside the canyon, it seems that there is a lot of space here, and there are already a lot of people inside.
The maid and several workers have now completely regarded Dr. Yan as the backbone. When they saw the scene here, they simultaneously set their eyes on Dr. Yan and asked in a low voice, “Do you want to go in?”
Dr. Yan nodded: “I’ve already come here, I can’t turn around and go back.”
He said in a gentle tone: “I know you don’t trust those people very much, but we have no better choice now. We can’t support it for too long.”
At the same time, Dr. Yan also assured Wen Lan that as long as they found anything wrong, they would turn around and leave immediately.
Wen Lan and several workers nodded and agreed, with mixed feelings, watching their car keep driving forward under the driving of Dr. Yan.
After about half an hour, they passed the rough road and finally entered the deepest part of the canyon.
At the same time, they also bumped into the guards here, and saw a pile of tents being **** in the open space in the depths, as well as various parked vehicles.
It was obvious that this place was indeed a refuge.
Dr. Yan and the others were very cooperative, so after being screened and agreeing to the regulations, they were successfully taken in by this shelter.
In the days that followed, they lived fairly well in the shelter.
It was also after being taken in and checked in that Dr. Yan and the others gradually found out about this place. They knew that a team of about ten people found it at the beginning. They noticed that although there was a storm passing from above, it was unexpectedly not correct. This canyon has no impact whatsoever.
Therefore, they also regarded this place as a place of refuge and temporarily stationed here.
There are trees and water in this place, and even some edible wild vegetables and mushrooms can be dug up. Although there is no way to compare with modern cities, it is undoubtedly the safest place when the storm may raging at any time.
And as more and more people discovered this place and joined it, this place gradually became a sanctuary with hundreds of people.
The leader of the shelter is a retired soldier. Because of his rich experience in wild survival and strong enough combat power, he is very respected in the crowd.
And in the shelter, every once in a while, they will arrange for people to drive out of the city to find supplies and bring them back to share with everyone.
It can be said that on the earth that has been riddled with holes, it is already a very rare pure land.
However, during this time here, Dr. Yan and Wen Lan also discovered other complicated things.
That is, in this refuge, they met the original owner of the manor family, that is, Xia Feishi’s father, that Mr. Xia, as well as his current wife and son.
And I don’t know if it’s because he provided a lot of resources for the refuge, so in this refuge, he obviously has a good position, and even can live in the two best tents in the refuge, and the refuge. The chief of the institute enjoyed the same standard of food.
What was even more concerning was that Dr. Yan found that Mr. Xia seemed to have seen them too.
In the past few days, whenever they walked out of the room, or when Dr. Yan and Wen Lan came out of the tent, they could feel the eyes of Mr. Xia and the young master Xia Cui watching them silently.
Dr. Yan and Wen Lan knew this well, but they kept silent in tacit understanding.
Until that night, Mr. Xia probably really couldn’t control his emotions. He finally found the tent where Dr. Yan and the others were, and opened the curtain and walked in.
In this canyon, due to limited resources, Dr. Yan and the others could only squeeze several big men into the same tent, while the maid Wen Lan slept alone there. Now suddenly someone walked in, and the already cramped tent instantly became more crowded.
Dr. Yan looked at Mr. Xia who came in, and his demeanor didn’t change much.
It was as if he had already guessed that this person would come.
Mr. Xia looked a little hesitant. He pointed to the ground in front of Dr. Yan, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, “Can I sit here?”
Dr. Yan was noncommittal and just said softly, “Master Xia.”
Hearing Dr. Yan shouting like this, the other three workers sitting beside him looked at each other and asked in surprise, “Dr. Yan, do you know this person? Do you know the people around the leader?”
Dr. Yan glanced at them helplessly and made them shut up.
After everyone shut up, Dr. Yan finally explained: “I used to work for him for a long time.”
But now they are no longer an employment relationship, and since they left the manor, they have been cleared.
Therefore, facing this Mr. Xia again, there is no need for him to be respectful to the other party.
What’s more, because of Xia Feishi’s relationship, Dr. Yan didn’t want to have any interaction with him.
The maid Wenlan also thinks this way. She is sitting up now. She has not fallen asleep. Now she is wrapped in a quilt and looks at Mr. Xia faintly, as if she saw the scene where they turned and left when the disaster happened.
Mr. Xia was horrified by their gazes for no reason, he forced a bitter smile at the two of them, pursed his dry lips, and then said: “The purpose of my visit this time, I think You should have guessed it, I just want to know, Fei Shi is now…”
“Mr. Xia.” Dr. Yan cut off Mr. Xia’s words coldly, and then said to him with a cold attitude: “Since you chose to leave him and leave the manor, you are no longer qualified to ask him any more. Anyway, it has nothing to do with you.”
Mr. Xia’s lips trembled invisibly, and his face seemed to be pale, but there was a shy red at the base of his ears.
He was eager to defend himself: “The situation at that time was too urgent, and there were other things that had to be done by me, and in the situation at the time of Yi Fei, I took him away from the manor with a medical environment, which was tantamount to taking him. to die…”
Wen Lan interrupted Mr. Xia softly: “But you never thought that if you don’t take him away, he will die too.”
She fixedly looked at Mr. Xia and emphasized again: “I heard that almost no one can survive where the storm passed.”
Mr. Xia usually has a decent appearance, but now in this tent, they stripped off his Sven coat in front of his face, and the embarrassment under the coat was uncontrollably exposed in front of people.
Mr. Xia wanted to smile bitterly, but no matter how he raised his mouth, he couldn’t bring it into a smile. He slowly fell to the ground, shook his head and said hoarsely: “Tell me what happened to him, I am indeed not a good father, but I Really, really want to know about his situation. I can still talk in this shelter right now. I have a lot of supplies. The leaders here will also listen to some of my words. Tell me where Feishi is. , I can give him a good environment and let him live well.”
This Mr. Xia obviously felt regretful in his inner torment after he left Xia Feishi.
But that doesn’t seem to be sympathetic.
Wen Lan’s eyes were red and swollen, he couldn’t help lowering his head and buried his face between his knees.
Dr. Yan was silent, his expression was very cold, and the three workers who were following him were puzzled and couldn’t understand what was going on.
Mr. Xia has probably never asked anyone with such an attitude in his life. He murmured for a while, looking lost, and even his mind was in a trance.
Seeing his appearance, Dr. Yan took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it between his fingers for a while without smoking it.
At this time, even tobacco is a very precious resource.
Dr. Yan stared at the cigarette for a while, and finally said indifferently: “You are saying this now, just because after solving the problems of survival and status, you want to solve the problem of your own conscience. You just abandoned it. Now you are starting to feel uneasy, that’s why you want to bring the young master back. But if the crisis comes again at this time, and you have to choose between the young master and your interests, you will eventually leave the young master. .”
He raised his eyes amusedly and said to Mr. Xia, “So why do you need to ask again?”
Mr. Xia was slightly shaken by Dr. Yan’s words, he raised his head, his face was tense and he couldn’t make a sound.
And Dr. Yan’s expression gradually darkened, and finally said in a low voice, “Besides, the young master is no longer here.”
Lost traces, disappeared for half a month, and dragged her body in that condition.
Even Doctor Yan and the others always had the best expectations, but there was no doubt that he himself could not deceive himself like this. In such a harsh environment, Xia Feishi had no way to survive.
Unless something miraculous happens.
Dr. Yan said this in a cold tone.
After hearing what he said, Mr. Xia was finally stunned. He stared at Dr. Yan’s expression, and then looked at Wen Lan blankly, waiting to see from their expressions and eyes that they were not lying. After that, Dr. Yan finally stood up staggeringly, opened the tent curtain again and walked out.
Someone in the tent sighed softly.
This was a short episode. For Dr. Yan and Wen Lan, the arrival of Mr. Xia did not change their lives at all.
But as they remained in the shelter for two more days, a new storm emerged.
The sky above this area does not know why there are so many raging winds, but at this time, they have no way to resist except to avoid.
Before the storm came, the team in charge of testing had issued an early warning to everyone in the canyon. Everyone began to run deep into the canyon, put away their tents, and then fled to the deepest huge rock cave.
This storm seems to be stronger than ever, and it is vaguely unusual.
But what surprised them was that when they found the storm, they also found that on the road not far away…
It seems that a group of lions, tigers and leopards are running towards this side.
