Chapter 15: Taking Their Territory
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Chang Yuan entered the forest, he did not head towards the lake. Instead, he returned to the beach.
After yesterday’s heavy rain and the strong tides, a lot of things would be brought to the beach by the waves.
As a science stream student, Chang Yuan was very familiar with nature knowledge and physics. Otherwise, he wouldn’t become a technician.
As expected, when he came to the beach, he saw that it was full of garbage…
There were all kinds of things, but they were all small.
Among them, there were mostly scallops, some big crabs, some big lobsters, and some small octopuses.
However, the shells were all black, as if they were burnt.
Chang Yuan remembered that the lightning kept striking the sea yesterday. It seemed that this group of seafood must have been struck by the lightning. They were electrocuted and washed up on the shore.
Chang Yuan’s luck was not bad. He found a lifeboat. Although it was already damaged, it still had many uses.
He used a rope to shape the lifeboat into a bag and filled it with a lot of seafood.
While picking up some useful things, Chang Yuan also saw a familiar box. Wasn’t this a toolbox?
He opened it and saw that everything was in place. It was a spare toolbox from the plane.
Chang Yuan was ecstatic. He finally had tools to utilize his skills. As he thought about it, he took out his phone that had been switched off for two days.
He could fix his phone easily. However, without a handy tool, no matter how skilled he was, he couldn’t fix the phone.
Now, the heaven had sent him a perfect toolbox.
Chang Yuan carried the toolbox on his back. After finished searching for a while, he walked back along the beach with a big bag of food.
Suddenly, Chang Yuan saw a person lying on the beach where the waves had receded. Chang Yuan quickly stepped forward and looked at it. It was a dead body.
This dead body was wearing the captain’s clothes. Chang Yuan let out a long sigh.
So many people had survived, but the captain was dead.
The captain’s body had been soaked in seawater for two to three days. It had become extremely swollen. Chang Yuan pinched his nose and extended his hand to search through the captain’s clothes.
He took out a captain’s certificate and a wireless walkie-talkie.
This wireless walkie-talkie was a top-notch treasure. With this thing, they could use a satellite phone, which was much better than a smart phone.
The talkie-walkies were used on airplanes, and they were very advanced.
Chang Yuan pressed it for a long time, but there was no response. He turned it upside down, and a stream of water flowed out from it.
It seemed that it had been soaked in the water for too long, and the internal parts were spoiled.
Even so, Chang Yuan was very excited and put the walkie-talkie into his pocket.
He even took off the captain’s belt. This was a crocodile leather belt. It was much better than his fake leather one that only cost a few dollars.
He found that there was a Swiss Army knife attached to the belt. It was as long as a forearm and had a leather sheath. Luckily, it was still intact and extremely sharp.
It seemed that this captain was a ruthless person. He did not forget to bring a knife when he flew the plane.
With this Swiss Army knife, Chang Yuan could retire his fruit knife.
After packing the things, Chang Yuan returned to the forest and picked some wild Fiery Thorn Fruits.
However, Chang Yuan realized that these fruits seemed to have decreased by a lot. He knew very well which trees he picked those fruits from. There were indeed lesser fruits on other trees.
He made an assumption, could it be that Auntie Wang and her group picked these fruits?
Chang Yuan could not think of anyone else other than them.
Looking at the sky, it was already noon. He had unknowingly been busy for the whole morning. He was in an extremely good mood after returning with a full load.
In the past, Chang Yuan worked with a fixed salary and lived in a high-cost first-tier city. A seafood barbecue would cost his entire month’s food money. He could only afford to eat lobster and other seafood at the cheap buffet.
He did not expect that his life was even more comfortable after being stranded on a deserted island.
Humming a tune along the way, he returned to the cave halfway up the mountain.
However, a few nervous screams suddenly came from the cave.
“Don’t come any closer, I’ll beat you if you come any closer!”
The voice was Zhuo Qianqian. Chang Yuan looked up from the bottom of the mountain. He found that Zhuo Qianqian, Qiao Yuran, and Tong Wei were standing at the edge of the stands above the cave.
In front of the three of them was Xiao Gu.
“Hahaha, go ahead and scream. It’s useless even if you scream your throat out!” Xiao Gu narrowed his eyes and looked like a villain. “From now on, your place is ours, and the three of you will be our slaves!”
Qiao Yuran hid behind Zhuo Qianqian and stuck her head out to curse, “You’re the slave. You’re one of Director Zhang’s lackeys!”
Xiao Gu was furious when he heard it. “Bullsh*t! If you don’t want to live, then go to hell!”
Xiao Gu held a stone in his hand and was about to throw it at the three women.
The three women had been forced to the edge of the cliff. If they took another step back, they would fall and smashed into pieces.
Chang Yuan suddenly shouted angrily, “Sc*mbag Gu, if you dare to make a move, I’ll kill him!”
Just as Xiao Gu was confronting the three women, Chang Yuan had already put down his bag and sneaked behind Director Zhang with the Swiss Army knife in his hand.
Previously, Director Zhang was standing with another young man who was brawny but looked a bit dumb. At that time, Director Zhang was commenting on the benefits of this cave with satisfaction.
He was talking about how good it was to live here, to shelter from the wind and rain, to have the back of a high mountain facing the lake and the sea, and to have a wide vision to the island. It was a treasure land.
The brawny man was dumbfounded when he heard that, but he nodded his head in agreement.
Suddenly, Chang Yuan bent down and grabbed Director Zhang’s neck with one hand while the two of them were talking. The Swiss Army knife was directly placed on the artery of the Director Zhang’s neck.
“You… Young man, it’s a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding! Let go of me!”
Director Zhang was extremely nervous. With the knife placed on his neck, his legs were shaking so much that he could not stand properly.
On the viewing platform above the cave, Xiao Gu was stunned when he heard Chang Yuan’s threat.
“Xiao Gu, you monster, who told you to bully women? You’re despicable! You’re a monster! Get down from there!” Director Zhang shouted at Xiao Gu angrily.
Director Zhang’s reaction confused Xiao Gu, and he revealed a puzzled look.
“D*mn it, it was you who told me to threaten these three beautiful women. Didn’t you say that you wanted these three women to be your slaves? You are really quick on betraying your subordinate, you piece of sh*t!” Xiao Gu cursed in his heart
Director Zhang was trying his best to make eye contact with Xiao Gu. Xiao Gu received the message and raised his eyebrows.
He thought to himself, “I can’t offend Director Zhang. After we’re saved from this island, I still have to rely on Director Zhang to make a fortune.”
Immediately after, Xiao Gu shrewdly admitted defeat. “Oh, it’s my fault. I’m a monster! I’ll come down right away!”
Because of the commotion, the people inside the cave also ran out..
