C461 Escape from Death
Mu Qingqing knew that the bag contained fruit prepared by Black Tiger, which would be their source of energy. According to Steve Bewin's way of eating, he wouldn't leave them even a little bit of food.
"Here you go." Mu Qingqing threw her backpack to Black Tiger. It was obvious that he was very tired at the moment.
"You brought us to this damned place. What kind of project are you talking about?" Mu Qingqing interrogated Steve.
"Why are you asking so much about the company?" When Steve Bewin was full, he sat down on the beach to catch his breath.
Mu Qingqing had better stamina than the two of them. Although she was hungry, it did not mean that she lacked the strength.
She walked up to Steve Burwin and grabbed him by the collar, the anger in her eyes clearly visible.
"If it wasn't to save you, I wouldn't have made this trip. You'd better not be messing with me. Otherwise, I don't mind killing this person. " Mu Qingqing's tone was filled with anger. Her skin had started to bubble from being soaked in the sea. Steve Burwen, the perpetrator, had to be punished.
"Tell me, what's your next plan?" Mu Qingqing questioned him.
Black Tiger was eating grapes on a tree. His gaze was fixed on Mu Qingqing's leg. The torn off leg had a deep color. If you looked carefully, it seemed to be soaked in blood. Is she hurt?
Steve Bevan smiled at her. This little girl actually had quite the guts to come and question him.
"Aren't you afraid that my six brothers will take your life?"
Mu Qingqing stood on the beach and slowly thought through the situation. The six people did not die in the wrong way. She gritted her teeth and said, "They were the ones who were heartless first. I was trying to defend myself."
"When I got out of the shark, I understood one thing. Do you want to hear it? " Mu Qingqing asked.
"Tell me about it." Steve Bewin was looking at her with a serious expression. In the dark night, her eyes were shining like black gems.
"What's more terrifying than death is being able to live in despair." Mu Qingqing slowly loosened her grip on his collar and walked towards Black Tiger. She was also hungry and needed to replenish her energy.
She didn't understand what Mu Qingqing said. How could she be in despair? Steve Burwen's smile faded as he was too lazy to stroke his wrinkled shirt.
If he had been lying on the beach all night, he thought, their bodies would have been frozen solid.
Besides, after the shipwreck of the day, the tents were gone, the knives were gone, and the fire was gone. Something edible is hard to find on this island. Their stamina was more than enough. At this point in time, no one could handle a small wild beast.
He dared to use the lives of Mu Qingqing and Black Tiger as the foundation stones, but he was afraid of death.
"Take a break, I'll take you to your destination." Steve Bewin gave an accurate reply.
"I'm warning you, if the two of us die, you can forget about living on." The destination was under the island, Mu Qingqing knew, but she had to pretend she didn't know.
No matter how hard Steve Bewin tried, Black Tiger was the most innocent person in the whole affair. She did not want Black Tiger to lose his life because of his innocence.
The few of them were lying on the beach, eating grapes in the gentle evening breeze. For a moment, the scene was very harmonious.
Mu Qingqing calmed down a lot when she heard the sound of the waves lapping against the shore.
"How did you escape?" Black Tiger turned around and asked Mu Qingqing. He was starting to get curious about Mu Qingqing.
Mu Qingqing gradually became cold. She rubbed her arms and slowly replied, "Just lucky."
Big life?
Black Tiger chuckled and said without holding back, "You have given me a lot of surprises along the way."
"But all I got was shock." Mu Qingqing pursed her lips. She didn't want to tell anyone about the feeling of escaping. If it had been Steve Bewin who had asked, she would not have wanted to answer.
The mere thought of being swallowed and spat out by a shark gave him goosebumps. Those few minutes, it seemed, went on for centuries. She and a school of small fish coexisted in the stomach of a shark. The little fish died, and she was still alive.
The shark's swimming speed was very fast. In just a few minutes, it was enough to bring her out of the sea. The next time it opened its mouth, it sprayed her out, landing in an arc on the sea. What was left for her was only the sound of splashing water beside her ears.
This fall had completely knocked her unconscious. After that, even she didn't know how she managed to muddle her way to this shore.
"Your leg is injured?" Black Tiger asked her in concern.
Mu Qingqing lowered her head to look at the deep imprint on her leg. Actually, it was pitch black, and because it was too dark, it looked like blood.
"No, the squid was sprayed." Mu Qingqing answered helplessly.
Black Tiger smiled, "It's the Ink Fish."
"Who cares what the hell it is, it's not an injury." She came back unharmed. That was already quite good.
"Why did you save him?" When Black Tiger saw Mu Qingqing's actions, he silently respected her. To dare to sacrifice one's life to save another without a premonition, no matter what the character of the saved person is, the actions of the rescuer are great and noble.
Mu Qingqing's gaze slightly froze. She knew that Steve Burwen could open the submarine's door. If Steve Burwen died, then Mo Xiaohe and the other living subjects would not be able to be saved within a short period of time. Under the circumstances, she had thought a lot. Steve Bewin was the only person she knew who could open the underwater passage. Without him, no one would be able to open the underground passage for a short period of time.
There wasn't much time left for Aunt Qiong. Although the fate of being eaten by a shark was a bit tragic, it still gave Aunt Qiong a chance to live. Without her, there was still Mo Xiaoyun who knew of the plan. With his intelligence, he definitely could find a way to save Mo Xiaohe and then successfully change his blood, using his supernatural ability to save Aunt Qiong. After weighing the pros and cons, she decisively chose to be eaten by a shark.
However, her thoughts were like this. What she replied to Black Tiger was not this kind of honest answer.
"I killed six of his brothers, so I have to compensate him with something." Pausing for a moment, she then added, "He did not choose to call the police, and I have not been executed. If I have to sacrifice one, then I will redeem myself."
Black Tiger grabbed the sand on the beach and let it flow between his fingers. So it was to atone for his sins.
After resting for a few hours, they had no electronic equipment to use and no idea how long it would take.
Mu Qingqing raised her head and looked at the position of the moon. The moon hung high in the sky, so it was probably 12 o'clock in the morning.
Without waiting for her to say anything, Steve Bevin stood up, "Followme."
Finally, they set off again.
Black Tiger helped Mu Qingqing up before following Steve Bewin into the dark and quiet jungle.
Under the moonlight, Glaucous was just barely able to see the road. Steve Bewin broke a stick on the road and walked forward, striking the grass in front of him.
With her eyes closed, Mu Qingqing walked as if she were walking in the daytime. She saw owls perched on trees, bats eyeing in the dark, and all kinds of small animals she could not name.
"Director Shi, the location you chose to travel to is at a place like this. Are there really any customers that are willing to come over and talk to you?" Mu Qingqing felt blisters on her feet and couldn't help but ask Steve Bewin.
"Of course." Steve Bevin raised his eyebrows. This place was chosen by him from thousands of places, so it was definitely safe. No one would be able to find this place.
Lili gritted her teeth and persevered on their journey through the mountains and rivers.
"You are such a money grubber. For this project, you can even give up your life." Mu Qingqing mocked him.
Steve Burwen sneered. It wasn't Mu Qingqing's fault for not understanding. She was a daughter of the Hua Family, and had never worried about money.
After an unknown length of time, they arrived at another beach. Steve Burwen told the two of them to wait while he walked to the other side.
Mu Qingqing closed her eyes to see what he was doing.
Walking up to a thick coconut tree, Steve Burwen dug his fingers into the bark and took out a flashlight.
He stood at the edge of the beach and turned on the flashlight for the submarine under the water.
Mu Qingqing watched him patiently as she memorized the way he sent out the signal.
Steve Burwin approached them with a flashlight, a faint smile on his face. Soon, he would be able to meet his old friend. His mood was a little agitated.2
There was a glimmer of light on the quiet beach. Steve Burwin held the flashlight in his hand and lit up the spot where he was standing.
"Director Shi, can you give me something to eat?" Mu Qingqing asked him arrogantly.
"We'll have something to eat soon." Steve Bewin readily promised.
Black Tiger didn't say anything as he waited for Steve Burwen's next move. He had the least authority here and was only responsible for protecting Mu Qingqing's safety.
After a long while, a black head surfaced from the sea and swam towards them.
Black Tiger saw clearly that the person who came was wearing a Frog's diving suit.
The person wearing the Frog Man diving suit walked towards Steve Burwen and respectfully called out: "Boss."
Steve Bewin was pleased with his attitude and negotiated with him for a while. Pointing in the direction of Mu Qingqing and Black Tiger, he saw that there were three people there.
After confirming the numbers, the man in the Frog diving suit dived into the water again.
Mu Qingqing saw that the man had gone down to find a diving suit. She was looking at the vast ocean with a pair of dark eyes.
"Director Shi, where did this person come from?" Mu Qingqing teased.
However, Steve Burwen had a stern expression on his face as he said to her, "You know about the confidentiality agreement, right?"
"Got it." Mu Qingqing replied.
"Then shut your mouth, don't say a word about this." Steve Bewin said seriously.
Fine, I did a good job of keeping it a secret. Mu Qingqing no longer spoke to distract Steve Bewin's attention.
However, she did not understand why Steve Bewin would bring her here. Because she had entered the core circle?
