A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

The soldiers nodded their heads when they heard this, expressing their agreement with Bai Ye's opinion. They knew that now was not the time for speculation and discussion, but for action and determination. So they packed their bags again and followed Bai Ye on his way.

However, the explosion of the cruise ship had a great psychological impact on them. They began to be more alert to the surrounding environment, fearing that something unexpected would happen again. Bai Ye also strengthened the team's vigilance, and he sent several soldiers to explore the way ahead to ensure that their route was safe.

They passed through one forest after another and crossed one stream after another. The scenery on the road was constantly changing, but their mood was still restless. The explosion of the cruise ship was like a huge rock pressing on their hearts, making them feel heavy and uneasy.

Bai Ye saw it all and was anxious. He knew that if the soldiers' fear and anxiety could not be eliminated as soon as possible, their morale would be seriously affected. So he began to talk to the soldiers, encouraging them to face difficulties bravely and not be defeated by fear.

As the soldiers listened to Bai Ye's words, a warm feeling gradually welled up in their hearts. They knew that Bai Ye was their leader and their support. As long as Bai Ye was there, they had the confidence to overcome all difficulties and challenges.

In this way, they continued to move forward. Although the road was long and full of unknowns, they no longer felt lonely and afraid. Because they knew that as long as they united as one and moved forward courageously, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

However, the cruise ship's explosion remains an unsolved mystery. It hangs over the soldiers' minds like a shadow, making them unable to completely let go. They began to speculate on various possible reasons, some believing that someone deliberately sabotaged it, and some believing that there were hidden dangers in the cruise ship itself.

Bai Ye has been thinking about this problem. He knows that if they can't find the real reason why the cruise ship exploded, they can't completely eliminate the soldiers' doubts and fears. So he decided to send a team back to the wreckage of the cruise ship to investigate.

The team, composed of several experienced soldiers, carefully returned to the wreckage of the cruise ship with the necessary equipment and tools, and began to carefully search every corner for possible clues and evidence.

After a lot of hard work and searching, the team finally found the reason why the cruise ship exploded. It turned out that someone had installed a time bomb in the control room of the cruise ship. The bomb automatically detonated after the set time, causing the cruise ship to explode.

The team reported this discovery to Bai Ye. Bai Ye was furious when he heard this. He knew that this time bomb must have been deliberately installed by someone in order to disrupt their schedule and plan.

However, now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Bai Ye quickly calmed down and began to think about countermeasures. He knew that the appearance of this time bomb meant that their itinerary had been exposed and someone might be secretly monitoring them.

Therefore, Bai Ye decided to change the original route and choose a more hidden and safer road to continue moving forward. He also strengthened the team's vigilance and precautions to ensure their safety.

The soldiers listened to Bai Ye's arrangements, and although they felt a little uneasy and confused, they still chose to trust and obey. They knew that Bai Ye was their leader and support, and only by following Bai Ye could they move towards a better future.

In this way, Bai Ye led the soldiers to continue to move forward. They passed through one forest and one mountain after another, and experienced countless difficulties and challenges. However, they always maintained firm beliefs and tenacious perseverance and moved forward courageously.

Although the explosion of the cruise ship brought them a great shock and loss, it also strengthened their faith and determination. They know that only by moving forward and striving continuously can they move towards a better future. And Bai Ye is always by their side, leading them to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.

Bai Ye led the soldiers through the dense jungle for a long time and finally came to a hidden cave. The entrance of the cave was covered by vines and weeds. If they hadn't searched carefully, it would be difficult to find that there was a place to hide here.

Bai Ye signaled the soldiers to stop, and he carefully walked to the front of the cave, pushed aside the vines, and looked inside. The cave was pitch black, and he could not see anything. He frowned, but then took out a flashlight from his backpack and turned it on.

The beam illuminated a part of the cave, and Bai Ye walked in carefully. The soldiers followed closely behind, keeping alert. They knew that in this unknown environment, any danger could be lurking.

The cave passage was not wide, so they could only line up and move forward slowly. The ground under their feet was uneven, and occasionally gravel and soil would slide down, making slight noises. They walked carefully, fearing to disturb something.

As they went deeper, the scene inside the cave gradually became clearer. They saw that there were many foods hanging on the walls of the cave! These foods were neatly arranged on the stone walls, including canned food, dried fruits, biscuits, etc., and they looked quite fresh.

When the soldiers saw the food, they were surprised. They knew that it was rare to find so much food in such a deserted place. They hurried forward and began to take the food and put it into their backpacks.

Bai Ye also saw these foods, but his expression was not as relaxed as the soldiers. He was full of doubts and uneasiness. Why did these foods appear here? Who put them here?

He looked around, trying to find some clues. However, apart from these foods, there was nothing else unusual in the cave. He frowned, thinking about the source and purpose of these foods.

The soldiers did not notice the strangeness of Bai Ye, they were busy putting the food into their pockets. They knew that these foods were essential for their survival. In this environment full of unknowns and dangers, more food means more security.

Bai Ye watched the soldiers busy working, and mixed emotions surged in his heart. He was happy that the soldiers were able to find these foods, but he was also worried about the source and purpose of these foods.

He walked up to a soldier and whispered, "What do you think happened to the food?" The soldier was stunned for a moment, then shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. He was only concerned with collecting the food and didn't think too much about it.

Bai Ye sighed. He knew he couldn't expect the soldiers to come up with any answers. He had to find out the source and purpose of these foods himself. So he began to observe every corner of the cave more carefully.

However, no matter how he observed, he could not find the source and clues of these foods. He was full of confusion and helplessness. These foods seemed to appear out of thin air and were beyond his comprehension.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly shouted: "Bai Ye, look at this!" Bai Ye looked and saw the soldier holding a strange device in his hand, which looked like some kind of surveillance equipment.

He was startled and walked forward quickly. He took the device and looked at it carefully, and found that it was indeed a monitoring device, and it was still working normally. He had an ominous premonition in his heart, this monitoring device meant that someone was always watching them!

He quickly told the soldiers about this discovery, and the soldiers were all shocked when they heard it. They knew that being monitored meant that their whereabouts had been exposed and they might be attacked at any time.

Bai Ye looked at the terrified expressions of the soldiers, and a sense of responsibility surged in his heart. He knew that as a leader, he had to lead the soldiers through this difficult time. So he began to think about how to deal with it.

He first asked the soldiers to remove the monitoring equipment, and then carefully search every corner of the cave to make sure there were no other monitoring equipment or traps. Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately took action.

After a careful search and investigation, they finally determined that there were no other monitoring devices or traps in the cave. Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not relax his vigilance.

He knew that even if there were no other dangers in the cave, they still couldn't let their guard down because there might be someone outside watching them, ready to attack at any time.

So he began to discuss the next action plan with the soldiers. They decided to rest in the cave for a while to recover their physical and mental strength. Then, they would find a way to leave this place and continue on their way.

The soldiers listened to Bai Ye's arrangements, and although they were somewhat uneasy and confused, they still chose to trust and obey. They knew that in this unknown and dangerous environment, only by following Bai Ye could they have a chance of survival.

In this way, they settled down in the cave. Bai Ye asked the soldiers to take turns to guard the cave to ensure their safety. He himself remained alert and awake at all times, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

The atmosphere in the cave was somewhat depressing and tense, but the soldiers did not show too much panic or anxiety. They knew that only by staying calm and composed could they better cope with the challenges and difficulties ahead.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the cave was silent except for the soldiers' gentle breathing and heartbeats. Bai Ye sat aside, frowning, his heart full of thoughts and worries.

He knew that this cave was not a safe place. Although they had temporarily avoided the danger outside, someone could break in and attack them at any time. He had to find a way to leave this place as soon as possible and lead the soldiers to a safer place.

However, the outside environment is full of unknowns and dangers. They don't know what difficulties and challenges they will encounter, let alone whether they can successfully reach their destination. But no matter what, they can't give up hope and faith.

Bai Ye looked at the soldiers' tired faces and determined eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that these soldiers were his brothers and comrades-in-arms, and they were willing to follow him to face any difficulties and challenges.

He secretly made up his mind to lead the soldiers out of this predicament and towards a better future. No matter what difficulties and challenges they encountered, they would face and overcome them together.

In this way, they spent a long and tense night in the cave. Although the outside world was full of unknowns and dangers, they did not feel lonely or afraid. Because they knew that as long as they united as one and moved forward courageously, nothing could stop them from moving forward. And Bai Ye was always by their side, leading them to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future. However, they still knew nothing about the source of these mysterious foods in the cave and the monitors outside. This unknown was like a heavy cloud, hanging over everyone's heart.

Bai Ye picked up the kettle and took a sip. The clear water moistened his throat and took away a trace of fatigue. He looked around at the soldiers sitting around the fire. Their faces still showed uneasiness about the unknown, but their eyes were shining with determination. He knew that at this time, in addition to material supplies, spiritual encouragement was equally important.

"Everyone," Bai Ye said, his voice was not loud, but loud enough for everyone to hear clearly, "I want to share a story with you, a story about the old man and the sea."

The soldiers looked at each other, obviously not interested in this topic. After all, in such an environment, they were more concerned about how to survive than listening to stories. But out of respect for Bai Ye, they still quieted down and prepared to listen.

"Once upon a time, there was an old fisherman who lived alone in a small house by the sea." Bai Ye narrated slowly, his voice calm and infectious, "Every day, he would go out to sea to fish. Although his catch varied, he never gave up. One day, he encountered a huge fish that he had never seen before. The fish was so huge that it almost dragged his small boat on the sea for several days."

The soldiers' attention was gradually attracted, and they began to imagine the scene, as if they were in the rough sea, facing the unknown challenges with the old man.

"The old man struggled with the big fish for a long time. His hands were worn out by the rope and his body was exhausted from the long hours of work. But he did not give up. He firmly believed that he could defeat the fish and bring back a big fish that his family had never seen before." Bai Ye continued, with a hint of excitement in his voice. "In the end, the old man succeeded in catching the big fish with his tenacious will. Although he was attacked by sharks on the way back and the big fish was eaten to the point that only the skeleton was left, he still returned home with this honor."

At this point in the story, Bai Ye paused, and he looked at the soldiers, and found that there was a hint of thought in their eyes. "This story tells us that no matter how great the difficulties we face, as long as we persevere and never give up, we will always gain something. Just like us now, although the road ahead is unknown and full of dangers, as long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that we cannot overcome."

The soldiers were silent for a while, then nodded, as if they had gained strength from the old man's story. They began to share their views. One soldier said, "Although the old man lost the big fish, his spirit won the respect of everyone." Another soldier added, "Yes, we are now like the old man. Although we don't know what is waiting for us ahead, as long as we don't give up, there will always be hope."

Bai Ye felt relieved when listening to the soldiers' discussion. He knew that this story was not just a simple inspirational story, but also a spiritual inheritance. In this difficult time, they need such spirit to support themselves and keep moving forward.

"Okay, the story is over." Bai Ye stood up and patted the dust off his hands. "What we have to do now is to face the unknown bravely like that old man, and not be afraid of difficulties until we reach our destination."

Upon hearing this, the soldiers stood up, packed their equipment, and prepared to set out again. Their eyes were full of determination and courage, as if they had seen the light of day ahead.

Bai Ye looked at the soldiers' backs, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead would be, as long as they were united, nothing could stop them from moving forward. And the story about the old man and the sea would become a permanent beacon in their hearts, illuminating their way forward.
