Chapter 1326 Towards South (1/2)

Li Du decided to stay on.

Although staying there was a little boring, these days there was no cold snap, so the weather was good.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.

He did not enjoy the city as much as Hans did, and he did not find life dull in the wild northern islands with Sophie and the little ones.

At times, they would hang out on the moors together. Occasionally, Li Du would drive a mountain bike across the moors. The land here was wide, with a beautiful, pristine environment. He could speed as much as he wanted without bothering anyone.

After a while spent in such a place, Li Du felt that his cardiopulmonary function was strengthened a lot, and the unpolluted environment was clearly good for his health.

By June, the entire northeastern part of the island had been scoured with no results, except for two meteorites Li Du had previously found. The others did not find anything.

Steve decided to go south, while they kept going north until then. The southeast had not been searched.

Upon learning of his decision, Li Du shook his head. ”No, the southern region is the tundra belt. Let's not go there. There is a bunch of old madmen in that area.”

”Old madmen? What are you talking about?” Steve asked in surprise.

Li Du explained about the old men he had met on his arrival, and Steve thought for a moment and said, ”Oh, I know who you're talking about, the old rangers of the island. You must mean them.”

”Are they rangers? Why are they so rude? Scolding us and shooting at us!” Li Du said.

Steve scratched his head. ”How did that happen? We came from the tundra belt, and we met some old rangers and they were very friendly.”

Big Ford frowned. ”Couldn't have anything to do with you being Chinese, Li, could it?”

”I don't think it had anything to do with racism. They were ready to hit the helicopter before I got off it,” said Li Du.

When Li Du thought of the helicopter that was knocked by the truck, he could not help but shake his head. Those old people were too tough.

Big Ford made a bewildered gesture. ”But we've met them, and they were very friendly. We've even traded in some animal skins and charcoal and some groceries…”

Steve interrupted him and looked at Li Du. ”Wait. You say they drove their car into your helicopter and clashed with you?”

”Yes.”

Steve said, ”What if they went specifically for the helicopter?”

Li Du turned his head to look at the large helicopter that stood next to the camp. It was painted red all over and stood out in the wilderness.

Red was the protective and lucky color of the Blodwen family, from which their ”red devil” nickname originated.

Steve added, ”If you think about the incident when Blodwen attacked us, you can surmise that perhaps the locals knew what was going on here. Maybe the Blodwens had been here before and had a conflict with the rangers.”

Big Ford nodded. ”It's possible. That would explain why they prefer not to come much to the east of the island.”

Li Du did not think about it before, but now he felt that it was possible.

”We'd better search the southeastern area,” Steve said. ”How about this? Let's drive over and see what's going on.”
