Shen Muyu didn't know what her mindset was when she got off the car; perhaps she was genuinely hoping a man would pounce on her.
Indirect killing and direct killing are ultimately different. This was the first time Shen Muyu had truly felt a life slip through her fingers, and the disgust she felt was overwhelming.
However, Shen Muyu didn't vomit for too long. After she leaned into the car and drank a few sips of purified water, she saw Da Bai's concerned gaze.
Shen Muyu rubbed Da Bai's head and walked towards the man's body.
The man's face still showed a shocked expression, his eyes fixed on the screen, creating an indescribable eeriness in the atmosphere.
Shen Muyu closed his eyes and then searched his body.
Shen Muyu rummaged through his pocket and found his car's core, a very important item that almost everyone carries close to their body.
When Shen Muyu got hold of the car's core, it suddenly emitted a blinding green light, and Shen Muyu instinctively covered his eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself surrounded by piles of things, and the car's core had lost its luster, turning into a very ordinary stone.
Shen Muyu tried to open it but couldn't. It seemed that this thing could only be used by the car owner. However, she was happy that she could get the item out.
Shen Muyu casually stuffed the grayed-out car core into her pocket and began looking through the things around her. However, she didn't notice that the grayed-out car core suddenly regained its luster when it touched Shen Muyu's core, as if it had been reactivated.
The items that were exposed nearby were mostly basic materials like wood blocks; there was no fuel or iron, so they must have just been used up.
None of these are anything special. The most eye-catching thing is the huge pig next to me, which looks ridiculously big, as if it has been fed with feed. However, it looks very delicious with its white and tender appearance.
Shen Muyu simply raised his hand and put it into his backpack, planning to see how to disassemble it later that night.
After sorting and packing the basic materials into his backpack, Shen Muyu picked up the three blueprints on the ground.
It was a bit disappointing; the blueprints were all very ordinary, consisting of manufacturing blueprints for nails, wire, and wooden tables.
Although disappointed, Shen Muyu didn't mind; having blueprints was better than having none.
As Shen Muyu was about to get up, she saw what the man was holding in his hand: a pieced-together stick.
The bottom part appears to be a chopstick, while the top part is an iron nail wrapped with wire, the tip of which has been deliberately sharpened.
Shen Muyu shook his head and walked towards his car, wanting to see if there was anything useful inside.
The front of the car was badly damaged, but the back was unaffected, and Shen Muyu easily opened the rear door.
This car is just a regular SUV. It seems that the man removed the back seats himself. There are many resource boxes inside, almost all of them made of wood, with only two being bronze.
Shen Muyu opened them all and looked inside. Finding nothing inside, she put them all into her backpack, leaving the back row completely empty.
Walking to the open car door, Shen Muyu glanced inside and saw a silver resource box placed on the passenger seat.
Shen Muyu's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached in to pick up the resource box and place it on the driver's seat.
The lock on the box had been opened, but the contents were still inside. It must have been something the man found at the fork in the road, and he didn't take it all out in order to have more time to create distance between himself and Shen Muyu.
Inside were some snacks and basic supplies, but what really caught the eye were a black cuboid and a bag of strawberries.
This black thing is a lifesaver! The air in the tunnel has been getting increasingly polluted these past two days, with a strange sulfurous smell and a bit irritating to the throat.
However, Shen Muyu's car was a basic version, without any internal or external air circulation. This is finally the case.
Moreover, Shen Muyu saw in its detailed information that it would automatically start even when the car was turned off, so she would no longer have to sleep with the windows open at night.
After rummaging through the glove box, Shen Muyu happily carried the silver box back to his car.
She threw the box into the back of the car, started the engine, and drove away.
After walking for a long time, Xiao A suddenly made Shen Muyu stop.
"Master, there are resource boxes on the mountainside next to us."
"Huh?" Shen Muyu looked to the side with some confusion, but saw nothing but a stone wall.
"It's on the platform in the stone wall," Xiao A explained again.
The tunnel walls are not regular curves; there are many protruding rocks or a series of platforms. If you really want to call this tunnel a cave, it's just that the ground is flatter.
Shen Muyu got out of the car with an axe in his hand, and Da Bai followed him out.
The platform on the stone wall protruded quite a bit, and Shen Muyu only saw a silver figure on it after changing her position. If it weren't for Xiao A, she would have definitely missed it.
"How am I supposed to get this down?" Shen Muyu was at a loss, looking at the resource box with its tricky angle.
She had no means of retrieving it from a distance. Was she supposed to use a wire to hook it bit by bit? But that wire was very thin; how long would it take to bend it before she could use it?
At this moment, Da Bai suddenly barked twice. Shen Muyu looked at it, and Da Bai had a smug expression on its face, as if it had been handed over to it.
Before Shen Muyu could react, Da Bai jumped onto the roof of the car, and then, using the roof as leverage, leaped onto the platform on the stone wall.
"Woof woof!" Big White shook its head, signaling Shen Muyu to move away. This time, Shen Muyu reacted quickly and retreated a lot to the side.
Seeing this, Big White walked behind the resource box and pushed it forward, causing the resource box to fall down with a bang and travel a long distance through the tunnel.
"Big White, how are you so amazing!" Shen Muyu praised Big White without reservation as he patted its big head after it jumped down.
Big White squinted its eyes, thoroughly enjoying itself, its tail wagging incessantly behind it.
After playing around for a while, Shen Muyu walked to the box, chopped off the lock with an axe, and carefully lifted the lid.
This time, Big White didn't bark again, as if there were no living creatures inside.
There wasn't much in the box, just a blueprint, a few pieces of glass, and two bags next to it.
Shen Muyu glanced at them one by one and realized that she was being shallow; fewer items meant more refined ones!
