Chapter 942: Eerie
After distributing the food, everyone sat around the fire, tasting the meager fruits and wild vegetables while exchanging their experiences.
Although the food was scarce, everyone's mood seemed to be slightly better.
After all, in this sinister environment, they had at least found a glimmer of hope for survival.
Ding Xiaoyu shared her experience of finding a fruit tree: "When I saw that fruit tree, I felt like it was a pie falling from the sky."
Chu Tian also smiled and said: "That's right, this food is really too important for us."
Chen Zihao sighed with emotion: "It's really moving that everyone can be united under such difficult conditions."
In the dead of night, the fire in the shack was still flickering, but it couldn't dispel the cold atmosphere filling the house.
The passengers huddled together tightly, hoping to find a trace of warmth from each other's body heat.
Suddenly, a piercing scream tore through the silence of the night.
Everyone was startled awake from their sleep, looking at each other with terrified faces.
Chu Tian stood up quickly: "Who screamed? What happened?"
Ding Xiaoyu pointed to the corner of the shack with trembling hands: "Over there... the driver over there... he... he hanged himself!"
Everyone was terrified, standing up from the ground one after another and gathering in that terrifying corner.
The driver's body swayed on the noose, his face pale, his eyes wide open, as if telling of his despair at the moment of death.
Chen Zihao said in a panic: "Quick, is there anyone who knows how to untie a rope? Untie him quickly!"
The older hunter shook his head nervously: "I'm afraid it's already too late; he's already dead."
The shack was filled with sounds of mourning, and the passengers felt sorrow and confusion over the driver's death.
They couldn't help but start guessing why the driver would choose such a way to leave this world.
Ding Xiaoyu muttered: "Maybe he felt guilty because he couldn't take us to our destination and couldn't bear it in his heart."
Chu Tian clenched his fists: "Regardless, we cannot let the driver's death go to waste. We must continue looking for a way out; we cannot let this accident erase our hope."
Chen Zihao took a deep breath: "Chu Tian is right. We must be united, support each other, and get through this difficulty together."
Everyone expressed their agreement, and they decided to hold a simple funeral for the driver the next morning and then continue looking for a way out.

The night was already deep, but the people in the shack could no longer fall asleep.
They sat around the fire with heavy hearts, praying silently, hoping that this disaster would pass soon and they could regain their freedom.
The sun rose, and the morning light shone through the window onto the floor of the shack.

The fear of the passengers from last night had subsided, and they hoped today would be a new beginning.
Chu Tian rubbed his eyes and stretched: "Is everyone up? We should hold a funeral for the driver."
Chen Zihao nodded: "Right, let's try our best to arrange a decent funeral for him."
Everyone walked toward the corner, intending to carry the driver's body outside.
However, when they arrived at the corner, they discovered that the driver's body was gone.
Ding Xiaoyu screamed: "What's going on? Where did the driver's body go?"
The passengers looked at each other, confused and puzzled.
The atmosphere in the shack became tense again.
Chu Tian frowned: "This is really too strange. We clearly saw him hang himself last night." ===== CHAPTER 943 =====
