Chapter 313 Sophia
The first thing that caught my eye was the fireplace inside the room. A faint flame was burning, flickering and emitting a faint light...
There was a person lying on one side of the fireplace... He was wrapped in a thick cotton jacket... He was wearing a hat, and his messy hair covered most of his face, so his features could not be seen clearly.
After Zhao Dongchuan flashed in, he originally wanted to take the initiative... but he didn't expect that there was only one person in the house... lying by the fireplace, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
He slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun and then put it away.
Only then did he slowly begin to observe the situation in the room.
The house was in a mess...all kinds of tables and chairs were dismantled...and there were some broken metal parts on the floor.
The picture frames on the wall were also torn off, leaving broken glass all over the floor!
He walked slowly forward and looked at the fireplace... There were fibers of clothing mixed with charcoal embers... It was all burnt black...
Zhao Dongchuan twitched his nose, sniffed the air, and frowned.
He quickly came to the door, opened it and started ventilating.
If Zhao Dongchuan's guess is correct, the air here contains a lot of carbon monoxide...
If it were normal this wouldn't be a problem, but now the room is sealed, so is that person suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning?
Zhao Dongchuan was thoughtful...
He kept the air ventilated like this for a while, and then came to the tightly wrapped rice dumpling.
He placed his hand under the man's nose and felt his breath.
"Well, there is still a faint breath, not dead yet..."
Zhao Dongchuan said as he brushed the hair away from the man's face.
A pretty and pale little face was revealed.
"what?"
Zhao Dongchuan let out a light exclamation. He had seen someone like this before.
It was the blonde, blue-eyed white chick in the family photo hanging on the wall in the front room.
"It seems this is her home..."
Zhao Dongchuan thought about it... hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a first aid equipment he had prepared earlier from the space - a portable oxygen cylinder.
Put the mask on the woman's face and turn on the switch...
After he was done, Zhao Dongchuan didn't care about her anymore. He had done his best. If it wasn't for the fact that she was a "beautiful girl", it would be a pity for her to die for no reason, he wouldn't have cared.
As the air circulated, the temperature in the house dropped rapidly, but the fire in the fireplace was much brighter than before.
Zhao Dongchuan thought that this was caused by sufficient oxygen and stopped paying attention to it... and started to check the room.
Now that we are here, we can’t leave empty-handed.
How much to get...
……
Soon, Zhao Dongchuan found a lot of jewelry in a wooden table drawer... emerald rings... necklaces inlaid with various gems, and a lot of gem bracelets...
This thing is not valuable here. Food is the most important thing in the Ice Age. However, this is a treasure in Love in the Courtyard or back in the mother world...
Although Zhao Dongchuan already has a lot of treasures, who would complain about having too much money...
Zhao Dongchuan smiled slightly and put all these things into his backpack... When he goes back, he must find a secluded place to hide them... Now that the shuttle channel is still there, he can move some supplies back and forth and become a qualified "merchant between the two worlds"!
As he continued to turn over, some small noises were inevitably produced.
After receiving sufficient oxygen, the blonde white girl slowly regained consciousness, and her eyelids began to tremble...
Zhao Dongchuan then found a very exquisite small Chinese wooden box in a drawer. When he opened it, he saw a simple dragon-shaped jade pendant inside!
"This piece of jade is nice..."
"It feels very smooth..."
Just when he wanted to continue playing, a moaning sound was heard.
Zhao Dongchuan looked back and saw the white girl's eyes slowly opening while trembling.
She was a little confused at first... she was dazed for a while... before she slowly regained consciousness.
She looked at the oxygen mask on her face, a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Soon she realized something was wrong... someone had come in... and seemingly saved her.
"Hey hey...little girl...you're awake!"
Zhao Dongchuan walked over and said with a smile.
"You...you, who are you?"
The little girl asked weakly.
"Um... as for me... you can call me Zhao... I'm a traveler... I just happened to pass by here..."
"A traveler?"
The little girl had a look of disbelief on her face. Although she didn’t know the specific situation, she knew that it would definitely be snowy and icy outside. Traveling in such a difficult place...could this person be seriously ill?
She hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Mr. Zhao, my name is Sophia... Thank you very much for saving me..."
"Hahaha... You're welcome... To be honest, if you were a big, strong man, I might not save you... This can be considered as your chance... You just happened to run into me..."
Sophia's face froze slightly, and she couldn't keep up with Zhao Dongchuan's thoughts for a moment.
"So this means you are after my beauty?"
She secretly complained in her heart but didn't dare to say it out loud.
At this moment, she was like a lamb to be slaughtered, completely without any ability to resist.
"Okay... I won't force anyone... I love winning people over with virtue the most!"
Zhao Dongchuan saw Sophia's strange expression and couldn't help but joke.
"Convince others with virtue?"
Uh, okay, Zhao Dongchuan forgot that Sophia had never seen Stephen Chow’s movies, so naturally she didn’t know the “conquer people with virtue” joke.
"Uh, it's okay... Since you're awake... it's easy... Do you have anything valuable here... Tell me!"
"valuable?"
Sophia felt a little defensive again. It turned out that this man was not only lustful, but also greedy for money...
"Well, I have quite a few jewels in my jewelry box... There is also a secret compartment in the closet, which contains a safe... There is quite a bit of cash and various equity documents, as well as some gold bars..."
As if to gain Zhao Dongchuan's trust, Sophia spoke very thoroughly and did not hide anything.
"You are honest..."
Zhao Dongchuan laughed and opened the secret compartment as Sophia said, and sure enough, he saw the safe...
"password……"
"..."
"Oh, this password is quite interesting..."
Zhao Dongchuan nodded and started rotating the combination... With a "click!" sound, the safe was opened!
There were stacks of US dollars inside... and a lot of document bags... and on the other side was a pile of stacked gold bars.
"Wow, what a good harvest!"
Zhao Dongchuan didn't hesitate and put the US dollars and gold bars into his backpack.
"These...are considered as some interest for saving you..."
"Forehead……"
Sophia was so upset. She realized that this man was a completely shameless and evil-hearted guy. When she just woke up, she thought she had met a "kind-hearted person"!
"Don't think I'm taking advantage of you... Your life is much more valuable than these things...
There is an old saying in the East that goes, "Money is something outside of the body." If you are dead, what does this have to do with you..."
As soon as Zhao Dongchuan saw Sophia's expression, he knew what she was thinking and couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry... you won't suffer any loss..."
"..."
Soon after……
Zhao Dongchuan opened the seasoning bottle and sprinkled some cumin on the wolf meat, which immediately smelled delicious.
He turned up the fire on the gas stove a little, turned the wolf meat over with chopsticks, and continued to roast it.
"Come, try it..."
Zhao Dongchuan skewered a piece of roasted wolf meat on a wooden stick and handed it to Sophia, motioning.
Sophia swallowed, her stomach started to growl, making her look a little embarrassed...
She hadn't eaten for a day...the snacks that were left in the room had already been eaten by her.
"Thank you...Mr. Zhao!"
Sophia reached out to take the skewer and nodded in thanks.
"You're welcome... Chenghui... One skewer and one gold bar! Hehe! I'll keep a record for you!"
"Forehead……"
Sophia's heart tightened and she almost spit out the meat in her mouth.
"..."
It’s so dark... This meat must be made of gold!
She couldn't bear it any longer, her face changed, and she looked at Zhao Dongchuan angrily.
