Lu Yun was naturally very satisfied when Director Meng said this, but she knew very well that smuggling snake venom on board and sending two living people on board should not be confused. To be on the safe side, she had to have something more secure, A more detailed plan.
So, she frowned and said, "Oh, your method is good, but the snake venom must be placed in the freezer, otherwise it will lose its activity soon, and it will have no value by then."
Director Meng took two puffs of cigarette and said, "What you said makes sense. In that case, let's just take the freezer with us."
"Take it away together? How can such a big machine be moved so blatantly?" Lu Yun asked doubtfully.
Director Meng smiled slightly and said: "Hahaha, the so-called mountain people have their own tricks, so you don't have to worry about it. In short, I have a way to safely send the freezer and the snake venom to the ship without being discovered."
Lu Yun was still a little worried and asked, "If it's true or false, don't brag."
Director Meng then explained: "It's raining so hard now, and people in the base are panicking. No one dares to go against me at this juncture. After all, if the island runs out of food, something big will happen." "
"So?" Lu Yun asked.
"So, even if someone has doubts, they don't dare to do anything to me." Director Meng put on a smoke ring, "I have already thought about it, I have stayed in this place where no one can shit, and now it is time to leave Well, when I finish making this money, I will resign and you come with me, how about it?"
Director Meng looked at Lu Yun attentively. It could be seen that although Director Meng was a thief and had a low character, he still had deep affection for Lu Yun.
Lu Yun was a little surprised at first, and then felt a little disappointed, but he soon laughed, "Okay, as long as this is done, I will go back with you."
After receiving Lu Yun's answer, Director Meng could no longer sit still. He picked up Lu Yun and said excitedly: "Great, I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Yun, when I go back, I will marry you. We Never separate again!"
Lu Yunze just nodded lightly, then pushed him away and said, "Let's settle the matter in front of us first."
Director Meng thought that Lu Yun was testing him, and immediately expressed his position: "Yun, don't worry, this matter is on my shoulders. No matter what, I will get it done."
Seeing that Director Meng was so serious, Lu Yun felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, let's wait for your good news. The ship will arrive at three o'clock tomorrow. You can be more hidden while it's still dark."
"Okay, I will be careful and won't let anyone take advantage of me." Director Meng said confidently.
That night, it still rained heavily.
This is what the people on Snake Island want to see most, because with rain, the snakes on the island will not die of thirst.
However, the rain was so heavy that the island could not bear it.
The waves in the sea kept hitting the beach, and the strong winds ravaged the few buildings on the island, making everyone feel panicked.
Because of this, the patrols at the base had to temporarily stop the search.
At two fifty, some lights suddenly appeared on the sea. The bright light rose and fell on the stormy sea, approaching very slowly.
I stood by the window and looked anxiously, "Sister Lu, the ship seems to be coming."
Lu Yun calmly admired his manicure and said, "I came on time."
"Then what should we do next?" Wang Mengyao asked.
"Director Meng's method is good, but it is too risky. With Lao Wan's personality, it is impossible not to conduct a search." Lu Yun said calmly, "But it's okay, let him do the search. , as long as he can't find it, then he has no reason to be worried."
I'm beginning to admire this woman a little now. She can still remain so calm at this time.
"Sister Lu is right, but how should we get on the boat?" I asked.
Lu Yun glanced at me and said: "Don't worry, I have already thought of a way for you. While Lao Wang's attention is on the dock, you two go from behind the base through the dense forest, and I will arrange a meeting at the abandoned dock. The ship is waiting for you.”
"Abandoned dock?" I looked at Lu Yun doubtfully, "Where is that place? Is it far away?"
Wang Mengyao replied: "It's not far, it's not far. That place is very hidden and has been abandoned for many years. However, you have to go through a dense forest to get there. Although it is only a few hundred meters, but..."
"There are snakes." Lu Yun said simply.
I couldn't help but be surprised, "There is a snake, that's not..."
"Although it's a bit more dangerous, it's still safer than the dock." Lu Yun said, "Don't worry, I've walked that road many times, and I didn't die either."
Wang Mengyao was still a little worried and said: "Sister Yun, the snakes don't care who they are. They entered the dense forest rashly. I'm worried..."
"Okay, okay, I'm worried about this and that, so how can I do this?" Lu Yun said impatiently: "Since you have chosen to do it, you must be prepared to take risks. I have already prepared them for you. Snake repellent spray and field work clothes, as for whether you go or not, it’s up to you.”
I thought for a moment and realized that almost everyone on the island had been bitten by a snake, but they were used to it. Some people are even used to the seclusion of life on Snake Island, where they feel they can't live without the hustle and bustle of scientific research. So, I nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it!"
"Li Rui..." Wang Mengyao looked at me worriedly.
I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry, Sister Lu has thought it through very carefully. We will be fine. However, I also have something to tell you."
"Ask me?" Wang Mengyao asked doubtfully.
"Wang Long knows our relationship. Regardless of whether he can catch me this time, he will definitely focus on you next time."
"You mean, he will blackmail me?"
I nodded and said: "This is obvious, but due to his identity, he will not come openly unless he jumps over the wall in a hurry. So, after we leave, you must be more careful."
After a pause, I turned to look at Lu Yun and said, "Sister Lu, can I entrust Mengyao to you?"
Lu Yun glanced at me jokingly and said with a smile: "Li Rui, you are really pushing your limits. Why should I take care of Mengyao for you? I don't owe you anything."
"You don't owe me anything, but we are also revolutionary comrades now, so I can only take the liberty to speak to you."
Lu Yun rolled his eyes at me and said: "Okay, what a bullshit comrade, isn't it because I have something in your hands that you dare to be so arrogant. Lao Wang doesn't dare to do anything to Mengyao. Although he is sanctimonious, But he can’t do anything like jumping over a wall in a hurry, so you should take care of yourself. Don’t get to Dalian and become a wanted criminal before you get ashore. Then it’s not worth it for us, Mengyao, to be widowed for you at such a young age.”
"Sister Yun, what are you talking about!" Wang Mengyao glanced at her with a blushing face.
I sighed and said, "We say goodbye, but I don't know when we will meet again. Take care of yourselves."
I looked at my watch and saw that it was almost time. If I didn't leave, it would be dawn.
Xu Miaofeng was awake at this time, but it was still difficult to move. I put her in field work clothes, put on the equipment, said goodbye to Wang Mengyao and the others, and then sneaked out of the base with Xu Miaofeng.
When we first left, unloading had already begun at the dock, and Director Meng was also arranging for manpower to load some supplies onto the ship. He thought everything was going well, but unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin showed up halfway. Lao Wang took the manpower that had been prepared and boarded the ship directly, asking for unpacking and inspection. For a while, the two parties became tense.
Without the big trouble of Lao Wang, Xu Miaofeng and I were able to leave the base smoothly.
"How are you?" I supported the weak Xu Miaofeng and walked slowly through the dense forest.
Xu Miaofeng shook her head, "I can't die."
"Keep on holding on, we'll be there soon." I took every step carefully, fearing that something would suddenly appear under my feet.
The risk factor on this road is quite high. Due to the heavy rain, the vipers have come out of the soil one after another. Now is their carnival season.
During the long-term lack of food, the vipers on Snake Island evolved to become more and more venomous. The main food of vipers is birds and mice, but because mice are so smart, vipers eat more birds. But snakes cannot fly, and vipers are very lazy. Their favorite thing to do is to lie motionless in the grass or on branches to save energy. So how do they catch birds?
The answer is all venom. When the spring and autumn hunting season enters, vipers will crawl to places where birds like to gather and wait motionless for the birds to come to their door automatically. By sensing the temperature, the viper can judge how far away the bird is, then quietly face the bird, attack and bite suddenly, inject venom into the bird's body, wait until the bird stops struggling, and then slowly enjoy it.
Therefore, the vipers here are five times more venomous than the venomous snakes related to them on the mainland. Only 0.1 grams of venom is needed to bring down 1,000 rabbits and 30,000 pigeons. This is a lethal dose that humans cannot bear.
And the more venomous the viper, the higher the chance of survival. Because they must obtain enough food during the limited hunting period so as not to wake up hungry during aestivation and hibernation.
"Are you afraid?" Xu Miaofeng suddenly asked.
I was stunned for a moment and said: "There are 20,000 vipers on this island, which means that every few steps you take, you will encounter poisonous snakes. We are in a snake den now. Do you think I am afraid?"
Moreover, these vipers are natural camouflers, and their colors are similar to the surrounding environment. If they stray into it accidentally, they will bite you.
"Afraid, why are you still taking this road?"
"If we don't leave, we won't even have a way."
"Li Rui, I didn't expect that the person who risked his life for me in the end would be you."
"Haha, don't sigh too much at this time. It's not because of you. I really have no choice. In short, it's better for us to leave here alive than anything else."
"You still plan to come back, right?"
"Yes, I must come back."
