The Hummer drove slowly along the rugged mountain stream road.
Lingxi and Leng Yue's departure left Ye Feng, Xiaoxiao, and Qiao Ying feeling a bit melancholic, so none of them spoke much, making the atmosphere somewhat heavy.
After all, Lingxi and Leng Yue used to be good at livening up the mood. Qiao Ying was clearly more introverted and didn't talk much. Coupled with the fact that she hadn't known Ye Feng and Xiaoxiao for long, she spoke even less...
"Sister Qiao Ying, here, some of your favorite red wine!"
Xiaoxiao had clearly also noticed the somber atmosphere inside the Hummer. After a thorough search, she found a bottle of 20-year-old red wine and handed it to Qiao Ying.
Because of their previous interactions, Xiaoxiao knew that unlike Lingxi, who liked donuts, Qiao Ying had a special fondness for red wine, especially aged ones, that she had tried for the first time.
"Oh, okay!~"
Seeing the red wine Xiaoxiao handed over, Qiao Ying's face lit up with joy. She immediately took it, uncorked it, and began to drink it in large gulps.
"Holy cow... Qiao Ying, do you want some snacks to go with it..."
As he spoke, Ye Feng's hand flashed with light, and several bags of drunken peanuts and beef jerky appeared in front of Qiao Ying.
"Oh, no need, I'm fine drinking this by itself!"
Qiao Ying waved her hand, clearly not interested in snacks, and continued to drink the red wine heartily.
"This woman... is she treating wine like plain water..."
Ye Feng was somewhat speechless.
"Brother, why do you need peanuts and stuff with drinks?"
"Isn't it better to drink it alone?"
At this moment, Xiaoxiao, who had just opened a bottle of ice-cold cola, spoke up, sounding quite puzzled.
Because Ye Feng had not allowed Xiaoxiao to drink alcohol, except for the time he drank Lafite 82 with Lingxi, Xiaoxiao had always considered wine to be a type of beverage, and therefore didn't quite understand the concept of snacks to accompany it...
After all, most beverages are sweet or sour, while accompanying snacks are mostly salty or spicy. Mixing the two was not to Xiaoxiao's taste...
"Uh... you'll understand when you grow up a bit more~"
Ye Feng really didn't know how to explain it to Xiaoxiao.
"Crack~!"
"Boom~ Crackle~!"
The Hummer drove for a while, the sky grew darker, and finally, lightning flashed, thunder boomed, and then, a torrential downpour began.
"Let's rest for a while~"
Because the rain was so heavy, the spray and impact of the water created a hazy mist, reducing visibility. Ye Feng stopped the Hummer, and the three of them, holding umbrellas, walked to a nearby hillside with higher terrain.
Ye Feng's Tang saber continuously slashed, digging out a cave for the three of them to shelter from the rain.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such heavy rain~"
Xiaoxiao stood at the cave entrance and watched for a while. She immediately took out paper and a pen and started drawing.
Ye Feng, on the other hand, took out a rattan chair, sat on it, and leisurely admired the pouring rain outside.
Qiao Ying also sat on a rattan chair, looking at Xiaoxiao, then at Ye Feng, her eyes full of curiosity...
...
Three hours later,
The torrential rain showed no signs of abating.
"Whoosh!~ Whoosh!~"
Suddenly, the howling of strong winds could be heard from the sky.
"Brother, look quickly, a tornado!"
Xiaoxiao's startled cry followed immediately.
Ye Feng was also amazed, as a huge waterspout had suddenly appeared in the sky for some unknown reason...
"Splash~!"
"Pfft~ Plop~ Splash~"
The waterspout quickly swept past the cave where Ye Feng and the other two were. A large amount of rocks, trees, and other debris fell near the cave...
"Holy cow... there are even sharks..."
Ye Feng saw several great white sharks struggling in front of the cave and was speechless.
Immediately, he quickly walked out of the cave and caught the great white sharks brought by the tornado. One great white shark opened its sharp fangs and bit Ye Feng's waist, but it had no effect on him.
Before long, Ye Feng and Qiao Ying had set up a barbecue grill, preparing to roast shark meat... As for the shark fins, Ye Feng had already put them in a pot to make soup...
...
Half an hour later,
"Here, shark fin soup!"
Ye Feng served a bowl of shark fin soup to Xiaoxiao and Qiao Ying, and happily ate some himself.
"Ah~! Ah~!"
Just as Ye Feng, Xiaoxiao, and Qiao Ying were happily drinking the delicious shark fin soup and eating the aromatic roasted shark, two screams suddenly came from outside the cave.
"Plop~ Plop~"
Immediately after, two figures fell heavily to the ground, splashing a lot of mud and water.
"Brother, it's people... someone fell from the sky..." kan Shu Wu. Xa
Xiaoxiao looked at the outside of the cave with great surprise.
Outside the cave, the two figures struggled up from the mud puddle, groaning. After looking around, their gazes fell on Ye Feng and the other two in the cave.
"People..."
Ye Feng frowned slightly and walked to the entrance of the cave.
Looking at the two people outside the cave, covered in mud and water, their eyes filled with panic, Ye Feng, for some inexplicable reason, asked, "Do you know where this is?"
"Where... where?"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, the two people who had inexplicably fallen from the sky looked around and then shook their heads in unison.
"Ea... Earth?"
One of the taller men ventured, his tone somewhat uncertain.
"Earth?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng was very surprised.
He had asked the two people outside where they were because Zi Ying Su had told him before that if he wanted to know the truth of this world, he could just find a local and ask. That's why he had asked casually, not really expecting any useful information...
He never expected the answer to be so surprising...
"Brother... Brother, did we get blown to an alien planet by the tornado..."
The shorter man nudged the taller man next to him with his elbow, his voice filled with panic.
"Don't talk nonsense... how could a tornado send us to an alien planet..."
The taller man whispered. kan δん
"But... normal people wouldn't be surprised to hear 'Earth', right? And it should be us asking the person in the cave where this place is, how did it become them asking us..."
"They were surprised to hear 'Earth', and seemed to not know this place..."
"Now that you mention it, it's quite possible..."
"Brother... do you think he's staring at us so intently, maybe he wants to eat us? There's a grill in the cave too... for roasting and eating..."
...
While Ye Feng was contemplating Zi Ying Su's words and the nature of this world, the two men outside the cave began to discuss in hushed tones.
"Hey, you guys..."
"Ah! Run!"
"He really wants to eat us!"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, the faces of the two men turned pale with fright. They immediately turned and fled rapidly into the pouring rain.
"Whoosh~ Whoosh!~"
"Bang~ Boom~ Clatter~ Crash~"
Just as Ye Feng was about to chase after them to ask questions, a large pile of things fell from the sky – it was a wooden boat, with various weapons and supplies on it.
"Ye Feng, what's wrong?"
At this moment, Qiao Ying walked over, looking at Ye Feng with a puzzled expression.
"Uh... Qiao Ying... where is this place?"
Ye Feng turned his head and asked slowly.
