Chen Zihao nodded: "Let's look around the neighborhood once the rain stops. Hopefully we can find some food."
Chu Tian looked at the other passengers with concern: "Everyone, hang in there. We will definitely find a way to solve this problem."
At this point, an older passenger stepped forward: "I used to be a hunter, I can go and see if there are any animals nearby that I can hunt."
The other passengers expressed their gratitude: "Thank you, we'll go with you."
The older passenger waved his hand: "No need to be polite. I'll lead everyone together once the rain stops."
The group waited anxiously in the hut, hoping the rain would stop, while also worrying about food.
Everyone's stomachs were getting hungrier and hungrier, and their complexions were getting worse and worse.
Finally, the rain gradually subsided, and everyone decided to set off to find food.
Chen Zihao, Chu Tian, Ding Xiaoyu, and the other passengers followed the elderly hunter out of the cabin.
They traversed the muddy roads, carefully searching for fruit trees and wild vegetables in the woods.
Although the rain has subsided, the air remains damp.
They struggled to find food in the dense forest.
After some effort, they finally found a few fruit trees with some small fruits on them.
In addition, they also found some wild vegetables and edible roots and stems.
Although the food was insignificant to them, it was an unexpected bonus in their predicament.
They gathered some fruit and wild vegetables and returned to the cabin full of hope.
Back at the cabin, how to distribute the food became a new problem.
After all, food was limited, and the passengers were already starving.
Chen Zihao suggested, "We can distribute the food according to age, so that the older people and children can eat first."
Chu Tian chimed in, "Yes, their physical condition is relatively poor, and they need more nutrition."
Ding Xiaoyu said, "We also need to consider each person's level of hunger, since some people may be able to endure hunger more."
Everyone expressed their opinions, but there was no clear allocation plan.
At this moment, the older hunter stepped forward and offered a feasible suggestion: "We can first divide the food into several equal portions, and then adjust the distribution according to everyone's needs and circumstances."
The passengers agreed, and they began to divide the fruit and wild vegetables into several equal portions.
Next, they made adjustments based on factors such as age and physical condition, ultimately arriving at a relatively fair distribution plan.
Chapter 550 Weird
After the food was distributed, everyone sat around the fire, enjoying the meager amount of fruit and wild vegetables while sharing their experiences.
Despite the scarcity of food, everyone seemed to be in a slightly better mood.
After all, in this treacherous environment, they at least found a glimmer of hope for survival.
Ding Xiaoyu shared her experience of finding a fruit tree: "When I saw that fruit tree, it felt like a pie had fallen from the sky."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Yes, this food is really important to us."
Chen Zihao exclaimed, "It's truly moving that everyone can unite under such difficult conditions."
In the stillness of the night, the fire inside the hut still flickered, but it could not dispel the chilling atmosphere that permeated the room.
The passengers huddled together, hoping to find some warmth in each other's body heat.
Suddenly, a piercing scream shattered the silence of the night.
Everyone was startled awake from their sleep, staring at each other with horrified expressions.
Chu Tian quickly stood up: "Who screamed? What happened?"
Ding Xiaoyu pointed tremblingly to the corner of the small house: "Over there...that driver over there...he...he hanged himself!"
The crowd was immediately terrified and stood up from the ground, crowding around that horrifying corner.
The driver's body swayed on the rope's buckle, his face pale and his eyes wide open, as if telling of his despair at the moment of his death.
Chen Zihao hurriedly said, "Quick, does anyone know how to untie the ropes? Get him off quickly!"
The older hunter shook his head nervously: "I'm afraid it's too late, he's already dead."
The cabin was filled with sobs as the passengers grieved and bewildered by the driver's death.
They couldn't help but wonder why the driver would choose such a way to leave this world.
Ding Xiaoyu muttered, "Maybe he feels so guilty for not being able to get us to our destination that he can't bear it."
Chu Tian clenched his fist: "No matter what, we can't let the driver's death go to waste. We must continue to look for a way out and not let this accident extinguish our hope."
Chen Zihao took a deep breath: "Chu Tian is right. We must unite, support each other, and overcome this difficult time together."
Everyone agreed, and they decided to hold a simple funeral for the driver the next morning before continuing their search for a way out.

Night had fallen, but the people in the cabin could no longer fall asleep.
They sat around the fire, their hearts heavy, silently praying that the disaster would end soon and that they would regain their freedom.
As the sun rises, the morning light shines through the window and falls on the floor of the small house.

The passengers' fear from last night has subsided, and they hope today will be a fresh start.
Chu Tian rubbed his eyes and stretched: "Is everyone awake? We should hold a funeral for the driver."
Chen Zihao nodded: "Yes, let's do our best to arrange a dignified funeral for him."
The crowd moved to a corner, intending to carry the driver's body outside.
However, when they reached the corner, they discovered that the driver's body was nowhere to be found.
Ding Xiaoyu screamed, "What happened? Where is the driver's body?"
The passengers looked at each other, puzzled.
The atmosphere in the cabin became tense again.
Chu Tian frowned: "This is really strange. We clearly saw him hang himself last night."
Chapter 551 The Resurrected Driver
Chen Zihao shook his head: "We need to be careful, there might be other people here."
A young man broke the silence: "What should we do now? Who dares to go out and look for his body?"
The group looked at each other, none of them daring to leave the hut.
They began to discuss countermeasures, but no one dared to take the first step.
The sky outside the cabin was overcast, and the wind began to pick up.
Suddenly, a loud clap of thunder boomed above the small house, followed by a torrential downpour.
Ding Xiaoyu said nervously, "The rain is too heavy. We'll be in danger if we go out now."
Chu Tian nodded: "We can't take the risk. But we can't stay here forever either."
Chen Zihao also agreed: "We need a plan, a plan that can both protect our safety and find the driver's body."
The group began discussing possible plans, but no one could come up with a suitable solution.
The atmosphere in the cabin grew increasingly oppressive.
Suddenly, the older hunter stood up: "Perhaps we should split up. Some of us will stay in the cabin, and the rest will go out to search for the driver's body."
Chu Tian hesitated for a moment, then said, "That's a good suggestion. We can give it a try."
After some discussion, the passengers decided to split into two groups.
Chu Tian, Chen Zihao, and Ding Xiaoyu led a group of people out.
Just as they were about to leave, the door was suddenly pushed open, and rainwater rushed in through the cracks.
Everyone was stunned when they saw a familiar figure—the driver who had hanged himself the night before.
The young man took a step back in horror, trembling as he said, "This...how is this possible? Weren't you dead?"
The driver slowly walked into the cabin, looking at everyone: "I also thought I was going to die, but when I woke up, I found myself still alive."
Some people were so frightened that they cried, while others silently watched the driver, trying to understand what was going on.
Chu Tian's face was gloomy. He remembered very clearly that the driver had died last night.
He walked up to the driver, his eyes blazing: "What exactly happened to you last night? How could you still be alive?"
The driver looked at Chu Tian and recalled what happened last night: "Last night I felt I had no way out, so I chose to hang myself. But when I lost consciousness, I felt someone untie me from the rope and then give me some kind of medicine... That's how I miraculously survived."
