Tang Tang fell silent upon hearing this. This... was truly unacceptable. She had family and friends who loved her, so how could she bear to leave someone alone? She wasn't that rebellious.

His eyes dimmed. "Well, it's hard to have everything in life. I'm fine the way I am now. I really shouldn't expect anything else."

"Brother Su, can you leave me your contact information?"

Su Chen shook his head and refused: "No, this fate will end once we leave the island. It is not appropriate to get involved too much. People like us in the Taoist sect have peculiar fates."

"For ordinary people, it's not good to have too much contact with us. You should return to your normal life."

"... Yeah, I understand. Thank you, Brother Su."

"Okay, you can eat."

The two of them ate slowly. After Tang Tang calmed down, she concentrated on enjoying the food. As she put the food in her mouth, her eyes lit up: "Hmm, it tastes even better when cooked with this firewood."

Su Chen nodded. He thought so too. He wondered what kind of tree this was. It could actually grow vines on it.

Others also started to eat one after another. With enough food and water, the panic among the people was not so serious. They just waited. There was no other way anyway.

Several days passed in a row, and as time went on, everyone got used to this monotonous life. They worked during the day and rested on the plane at night. After eating, they would work without thinking too much.

The body is tired, but the mind is relaxed.

It rained on the seventh day, and everyone could only wait in the cabin. Those with solar cells could play with their mobile phones to pass the time, while the others sat together and chatted.

"Hey, you guys said that if no one rescues us, we can just stay here forever. That seems pretty good."

"...Dude, I think you're crazy. Have you ever considered what to do if you get sick? How will you get food, clothing, shelter, and transportation? And there's no prey in the woods."

"We can't live on seafood forever. Besides, we have relatives here. We can't be trapped in this hellish place forever. I hope they can find us soon."

"Yeah, I'm just sighing. It's definitely better to go out. This place is too isolated. It's nowhere near as convenient as civilized society."

"Well, it's convenient for me to go back and be a cow or a horse."

"Tsk tsk, if you don't want to be a slave, go to a big city and work hard for ten years, then go home with the money and live there for the rest of your life. As long as you don't have a mortgage, car loan, or children to support."

"Having half of your life's burdens lifted instantly is not it? You choose your life after all. It's only a few decades away anyway. As long as you don't regret it, whatever happens is fine."

Tang Tang sat in the corner playing games, listening to the sound of raindrops outside, and her mood unconsciously relaxed.

I don’t know how much time passed before the signal on the phone flashed away.

Huh? I must have seen it wrong.

Tang Tang immediately turned off the mobile game and stared at the signal carefully. When her eyes were about to get sore, the signal flashed again and her eyes lit up instantly.

The signal began to recover little by little. That was great! I quickly got up and ran to find Su Chen, excitedly saying, "Brother Su, my phone just had a signal, but it flickered for a moment."

Su Chen looked over and said directly: "It will be soon. Rescue will arrive in two days. Don't worry."

"Brother Su, you know when the rescue will come, right? Oh, you see, I was stupid. You are a Taoist priest, so you can definitely calculate it. Then we can go home in two days, right?"

Tang Tang smiled brightly: "That's great, I can go home soon. When I get home, I will ask my mom to make me braised pork and my dad to make lionfish."

"Brother Su, have you ever eaten lionfish?"

"It's even better than squirrel fish. If you break the fish into strips and spread them out, it's as delicious as lion's head. I love my dad making this dish the most."

Su Chen pursed his lips and smiled when he heard this: "Your father runs a restaurant, isn't this your family's signature dish? But I've never eaten it. If I have a chance, I'll go to your house to try it."

Tang Tang said enthusiastically, "Okay, you're always welcome to our house. You know where our restaurant is, right?"
