Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 254 Father and Son, Brother

After hearing this, Liu Ziyun nodded understandingly.

"Indeed, the time to throw out the garbage is not right, so what you have to look at is his attitude towards this issue and judge based on that, right?"

"It's too fake after all, isn't it?" Tang Jiumin paused and continued. "We can try to infer from his purpose or results. Unreasonable things often mean they are reasonable, remember?"

As he listened, Liu Ziyun's eyes lit up, and something suddenly flashed in his mind.

"I figured it out!"

"Although some loopholes will be exposed, it is obviously more important to greet us in advance, or if he does not come out to greet us, it may cause more significant consequences than this loophole."

"Pa bang bang", Tang Jiumin applauded and praised.

"It's very good, and the direction is right. This will have some serious consequences, a consequence more serious than the occurrence of a vulnerability, but what are these consequences?"

Hearing this, Liu Ziyun rubbed his chin and began to think.

Yes, what are the consequences?
Just the next second, an impatient voice interrupted his thinking.

"Captain Tang, Officer Liu, when should we set off? It's already dawn."

After hearing the sound, Liu Ziyun turned around and looked.

I saw Zeng Xuebin, with a pair of bloodshot eyes, panting and rushing towards here. His whole body was shaky, as if he would fall to the ground at any time.

Seeing the anxious and haggard look on the visitor's face, Liu Ziyun had no choice but to put down what he was thinking about.

"Teacher Zeng, you look so weak, why not rest, I can go by myself."

However, Zeng Xuebin, who came early, shook his head.

"These are my students and they have to be responsible."

"Officer Liu, please hurry up. Every time we say another word, Liu Yuxuan will be more dangerous, won't he?"

Although he said this, Liu Ziyun still hesitated when facing the weak teacher.

But then, when he saw from the corner of his eye that the three students behind him had packed their things, he knew that the other party was already ready.

Finally, he nodded solemnly and agreed: "Don't worry, Teacher Zeng, we have already figured out the search and rescue route and can set off immediately."

After saying that, the man looked at Tang Jiumin aside.

"Go rescue your people and leave the rest to me."

Tang Jiumin waved his hand, signaling the latter to leave in peace.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ziyun immediately took out the road map, opened it and glanced at it a few times, and then left the auditorium with the anxious Zeng Xuebin and other students.

Not long after they left, the newcomers who had been relaxing outside for a while also returned to the auditorium one after another.

Everyone gathered in front of the largest table, waiting to be grouped and arranged.

After all, two people have died now, and no one thinks they can complete the task alone like before.

Upon seeing this, Tang Jiumin also came to the table.

However, before he could be divided into groups, someone had already volunteered.

That is Hao Gang, Hao Tie, and Wei Jianye.

As early as last night, they had already decided to act together.

Even, according to Wei Jianye's wish, he can leave when the old man goes out.

But Hao Gang was determined and wanted to say hello to the old people in the group.

At the very least, apply in front of these newcomers.

Sure enough, such an application is just a formality.

Tang Jiumin didn't hesitate for a second and nodded towards the three of them.

As a result, Hao Gang was so suspicious that Tang Jiumin might have known about it earlier.
However, the latter naturally couldn't hear these words.

Because there were about ten people left in the auditorium, the grouping matter fell solely on him without Liu Ziyun.

After a few minutes of discussion and research.

The remaining people were divided into two groups.

Group [-]: Tang Jiumin, Zhang Tiandao, Wang Kui, Lu Si, Yu Jiaojiao, Song Shude, Xiao Rongxiang

Group [-]: Ye Feim, Cheng Zhi, Lu Ping, Zhao Guangcai, Liang Kewei, Pu Daqing, E Sihui

The results came out. Facing Tang Jiumin, almost no one among the newcomers dared to say no.

And the man's eyes swept over their faces, and he continued to make arrangements on the map.

"In one group, Zhang Tiandao and I will lead a search along the stone path on the left side of the auditorium."

"Group [-], Yefim, Cheng Zhi, and Starving Ghost are not completely healed from their injuries. Please be careful and search along the path on the right rear."

"Remember what we said at the beginning, to return before 12 noon, and start taking action now."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone divided into two groups and walked out of the auditorium under the leadership of the old man.

Under Tang Jiumin's plan, their destination was quite clear.

One group's itinerary included a clinic and a slaughterhouse, familiar places of Song Shude and Lu Si respectively.

The second group includes a farmer with a pond, a locksmith, etc.

Although these residents are a bit far away, they match the occupations of the two groups of people as much as possible.

It is also for them to have relevant people to explain when they enter certain places.

However, compared to these two groups, it takes a lot of time to reach the destination.

Hao Gang, Hao Tie, and Wei Jianye, these three are obviously much faster.

After all, two hunters and one veteran, even if one of them is a little flashy, he has gone through a lot of training.

The three people's physical strength and leg strength are much better than those two groups.

Sure enough, neither of the two groups reached their destination, so they already searched two nearby homes.

However, fast does not mean effective.

Apart from some scattered daily necessities, they have not gained anything.

In his irritation, Wei Jianye couldn't restrain his craving for cigarettes and started smoking the old-fashioned cigarettes he got from the tobacco farmer.

And Hao Gang, knowing that continuing like this was not an option, set his sights on a large mansion on the map a little further away.

Soon, three people with extremely high mobility rushed to its vicinity.

Just like the map, the mansion covers a huge area and looks like a manor.

Even if you don’t look at the bricks and tiles and the wall eaves decoration, it is definitely a large home.What's more, there is a pair of stone lions placed at its door.

It is obvious that the identity of its owner is far more noble than imagined.

With this magnificent look, if you had hired a professional photographer to bring a camera before your death, you might have been able to take many high-quality photos.

It's a pity that the Qingyan where several people were sitting outside the gate was blackened by the fire for some reason.

This invisibly lowers the aesthetics of the entire door.

However, the three people at this time were not here to take pictures.

Wei Jianye, who was born in the military, carefully searched and found some diesel residue.

Then, they gathered at the gate of the mansion.

Facing the heavy door, Hao Gang was cautious and did not even dare to touch it with his hands. Instead, he picked up the shotgun, put the muzzle of the gun against the iron ring knocking on the door, and pushed in gently.

But with such a little effort, the seemingly heavy wooden door squeaked, a few wisps of dust fell, and opened inwards.

At the door, seeing such ease, Hao Gang couldn't help but show a strange expression on his face, and his eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Out of caution, he immediately looked at Wei Jianye beside him.

As for the latter, feeling the gaze directed at him, he also tightened his grip on the dagger and pistol under tension.

To enter, or not to enter?

I can't die yet.

He also wanted to see his daughter again and tell her that those two beasts were dead.

However, although the previous two houses were extremely safe, the harvest was almost zero.

Go on like this.

Even if it's safe one after another.

What's the point?
Will you live to the point of death without being able to see your daughter?

"No."

A slightly trembling voice made Hao Gang frown.

Being cautious by nature, he thought that the other party was unwilling to take risks, so he planned to take steps back.

However, when the corner of his eye glanced at Wei Jianye, Hao Gang was stunned.

I saw this person who was obviously conflicted just now, and his eyes suddenly became firm.

Not only that, but he nodded vigorously to himself.

"Go in, we have no choice."

Hearing Wei Jianye's answer, Hao Gang frowned slightly.

He quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind and glanced at his trembling brother behind him.

The father became ill due to overwork and was bedridden early, and it was the mother who raised them alone.

As an older brother, I wanted to reduce the burden on my family.

In the second year after his father's death, he ignored his mother's dissuasion and left home.

He was still underage and no one wanted to hire him, so he chose no man's land.

Because only in this way can you have the opportunity to make money.

Only by making money can the fate of mother and brother be changed.

My younger brother can go to school, and my mother can afford medical treatment and medicine.

Fortunately, the no man's land swallowed the lives of many hunters, but chose him.

Although my mother passed away before she could have a happy day.

But my younger brother, after so many years of hard work, successfully went to college.

The elder brother is like a father!

What's more, it was my mother's last instructions!

We must collect enough remnants as soon as possible to let him leave here
"Brother, help me guard the back. I'll take the lead. Xiaotie, you're in the middle."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hao Gang took a deep breath, stepped out with his right foot, and walked directly into the entire house.

Behind him, Wei Jianye pulled Hao Tie in front of him, turned around and stepped backwards to follow him inside.

Three people shot three times, moving forward close together.

After a while, he stepped across the porch and entered the interior.

Contrary to their imagination, this family seemed to be extremely wealthy.

It is similar to a manor with two buildings, one large and one small, and there is even a stable.

This discovery made the three of them slightly surprised and looked around.

The two buildings are both wood and stone structures, with two floors and three floors respectively.

Although it looks very old-fashioned, there is a feeling unique to wealthy people inside and out.

Hao Gang never went to school and didn't know what those decorations were.

He glanced at it for a few times, and finally turned his attention to the stables in the corner.

Before searching for a home, you still need to decide what the outside is like.

Hao Gang was the first to speak: "Let's go over there and search first."

But, it’s so big
It's bigger than my own home in the mountains.

After a little bit of grumbling in their hearts, the three of them arrived near the stables.

As the distance gets closer, the situation inside becomes relatively clear.

Kicking down the door rail, Hao Gang directly gave instructions to the two people behind him:

"One person is responsible for one area. I'll check the warehouse inside and meet up later."

When Wei Jianye heard this, he patted Hao Tie on the shoulder and pointed to the nearest place, then searched the dark place inside.

Hao Tie also looked at the stables around him, with almost an unobstructed view, and quickly checked them one by one.
