"What if they wait ten days or half a month? Do we have to wait that long? If our families know what's happened to us, I don't know how worried they will be."
"Who has the time to waste here? This is your airline's business, so you should be fully responsible."
Chen Min turned his head to look at him and said coldly, "Are you sure it's the airline's fault? We knew there were terrorists, or did we deliberately put you in danger?"
"If we can't land on the island, then we can only land on the sea. Which one do you think has a higher survival rate? On the island, as long as we pay attention to food and water, there will be plenty of them."
"But if we land on the sea and the plane sinks, we'll just be floating on the sea. It's cold and we'll be hypothermic. How many hours can we hold on?"
Everyone fell silent after hearing this. They all knew in their hearts that if they really landed at sea, they would have died yesterday and would have no time to wait for rescue.
Now on the island, as long as they are careful not to go into the woods, they have food and water. They just have to wait, but they don’t know how long they will have to wait.
Chen Min continued, "Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. Our superiors did receive our distress signal before landing, but there was no signal after landing."
"There's magnetic interference on this island, so our signals can't be transmitted. We can only wait here for the search ships to find us."
"Everyone, please don't be impatient and wait."
When everyone heard this, their eyes dimmed. If that was the case, then they would have to wait. They couldn't look for food every day. Since they couldn't go back to Danshui for a while, they had to start collecting it.
The captain said this in the hope that they could cheer up and face the reality that they couldn't go back for the time being. It was useless to keep urging them, and all they could do now was wait.
"Next we make arrangements for the next step. Everyone needs to take action and start collecting food and storing water, otherwise we will have no food if it rains."
"Everyone stood on the beach. We divided them into groups according to the list. People who were responsible for collecting firewood, food, and water must be present."
"There are also people patrolling and responsible for security. Xiao Zhang, go get the list and we'll start arranging the work."
Everyone sighed inwardly, but said nothing more. Now that there was a leader and a backbone, they just had to listen and wait, hoping that the rescue team would arrive soon.
A loud explosion was heard, and everyone shuddered and subconsciously looked in the direction of the explosion.
"What's that noise? It's an explosion! Who's lighting explosives in the woods? If it starts a fire, it could kill people."
Chen Min soothed him, "Don't panic, everyone. It must be Master Su who is doing something. Otherwise, why do you think the man-eating vine ran away?"
"Don't worry, Master Su knows what's going on. There won't be any accidents. Let's do what we need to do first."
*
A huge explosion sounded deep in the forest, and a deep pit was blown out on the ground. After it was over, Su Chen walked quickly forward, stood at the edge of the pit and looked down.
The intertwined tree roots entangled with each other, and as they moved, the ground began to shake, as if a giant object was trying to uproot it, and trees kept falling all around.
Su Chen dodged back and forth, a broken sword appeared in his hand, his eyes fixed on the tree heart in the pit where the roots were entangled. As long as the tree heart was removed, the tree would die naturally.
The figure flashed and the whole person jumped directly in. He raised his hand to split the layers of entangled tree roots and looked at the green tree heart the size of a watermelon inside.
It looks like a human heart, but it is green like crystal, and you can vaguely see green liquid flowing.
Su Chen's eyes became fierce, and he went straight in. He picked off the tree core with a knife. In an instant, he felt an earthquake and the whole ancient tree began to be uprooted.
The tree roots attacked Su Chen frantically. As soon as he thought about it, the heart of the tree disappeared, but the ancient tree's attack became more and more frantic. Seeing this scene, Su Chen was also confused.
"That's not right. The tree's core is gone, so why is it still moving? Is there something else controlling the ancient tree?"
Many paper people appeared in Su Chen's hands and scattered towards the ancient tree. He began to look for clues. While dodging, he jumped onto the ancient tree and looked down.
Soon the little paper man was found. It turned out that there was something similar to the heart of the tree deep in the roots. It was a heart-shaped stone that looked very ordinary with potholes.
But how could something that could be protected by tree roots be a simple thing? Su Chen stabbed in the direction found by the little paper man, and soon pulled out something that looked like a stone heart.
As the stone heart was pulled out, the ancient tree seemed to have lost its vitality and became motionless in an instant. Then, the vines quickly withered and fell off.
Just like an ordinary dead branch, it only took a few tens of seconds for it to turn from green to withered yellow, and the trunk also aged rapidly and fell to the ground.
Su Chen looked at the falling pieces and dodged hurriedly, fearing that he would be hit directly.
Su Chen couldn't see anything about the stone heart in his hand, so he could only put it away. When he got back, he would ask the people from the Special Department and hand it over to the National Research Laboratory for study.
As long as it is not a monster, he doesn't care. It would be best to hand it over to the country's people. Maybe they can research something out of it.
A towering ancient tree gradually decayed and collapsed before my eyes, like an old man in his twilight years, losing his last vitality.
After everything was over, Su Chen stepped forward and waved his hand to take them away. They would be staying here for ten days or so, and these would be perfect to use as firewood, and it would be better to burn them if they were air-dried.
Looking at the empty space, Su Chen looked back, turned around and quickly left the place. After finding Tang Tang, he asked someone to go down and take them out of the forest.
As soon as the two of them went out, they were discovered.
Everyone looked over at once, their eyes questioning, "Master Su, did you go and get rid of that man-eating vine?"
