The Farmer Ger in the Apocalypse

Shen Qing was infamous in his village as a fierce ger who no one wanted to marry. After being “kicked out” of his home alongside his mother by his biased grandparents and a father who was desperate...

Chapter 97: The End of the World - Trip to Zizhou 13

Qu Weiwei immediately dragged Li Li away. She didn't do anything before because she saw that Song Kaiji's attitude towards her had softened since he knew his parents were alive. When they first met Zhuang Ye at the service area, Li Li was quite talkative. In addition, Li Aiguo was also present at the moment. Qu Weiwei couldn't figure out Li Aiguo's temper. What if he really cared about his nephews and nieces?

Now that Song Kaiji had spoken, Qu Weiwei was no longer polite.

Li Li was still cursing and swearing at Song Kaiji and Li Aiguo. She said that they were ruthless and heartless, and that they didn't care about family affection... She said all kinds of ugly things. However, after she was dragged away, the car could be started, and Sun Cheng quickly drove away from the foot of the mountain and headed towards Hongcheng.

Li Aiguo slumped in his chair, looking very unhappy. Firstly, the experiences of the past few days made his old body unable to bear it, and secondly, he was still thinking about how to gently explain to Li Li that her parents were in danger so as not to upset the child, but Li Li scolded Song Kaiji like this.

But Zhang Sujuan couldn't stand it. She was a bit cowardly, and didn't like conflicts with others. She even said that before the end of the world, when someone quarreled with her, she would breathe rapidly, tremble all over, and cry incontinence.

But she was not stupid. She knew that her uncle's family was throwing abacus beads at her face every day. In addition, although Li Aiguo was also embarrassed in the past, he also knew what was going on, so she did not fall out with her uncle's family.

But what about now? Her son took so much risk to go in alone to save people, but now Li Li is chasing Song Kaiji and hitting him in the face. Even a clay man still has some temper! Moreover, after experiencing life and death, Zhang Sujuan was also aroused. She dared to kill Yang Sen, and her psychological quality has been trained now, so she doesn't tremble when quarreling. So she said to Li Li with a sullen face: "Li Li, you are so filial, why didn't you go up with your brother to save us just now?"

Li Li was stunned, the curse stuck in her throat, and after a while she said, "I, I don't have any special abilities. The mountain is so dangerous..."

Zhang Sujuan did not give her a chance to explain, and continued: "At that time, our car broke down and we were trapped inside for two days and two nights. Did you and your brother come back to look for us? It's okay for the two of us, but your parents were also in the car at the time. You talk so much about family affection, why didn't you come back? Now you start talking about family affection again, crying and shouting to show your filial piety?"

Li Li's face flushed red after being scolded by her. But she didn't feel guilty, but resentful. She avoided answering Zhang Sujuan's questions, but she didn't dare to scold anymore. Instead, she turned to Li Aiguo and played the sympathy card, saying in a sad voice: "Second Uncle, can you really abandon my father? He is your brother. Second Aunt and Song Kaiji are not of the same blood as us, and they are not of the same mind as us. You are different..."

Li Aiguo sighed deeply. He was not the type who liked to argue with others, or maybe he and Zhang Sujuan had similar temperaments. In the past, he was not blind to the little thoughts of Li Li and the others, but he thought that they were calculating and just lived their lives behind closed doors. No matter what others said, at most they could avoid provoking them.

But at this moment, Li Li's words really chilled his heart: "Yes, they don't have the same blood as us. We are the people of the old Li family."

Zhang Sujuan and Song Kaiji were both stunned and looked at Li Aiguo in surprise.

"I'm your second uncle, your father is my biological brother, it's only natural for me to take care of your father. So now, you and I, plus your brother." He pointed at Li Liang who was tied up like a dumpling, and said to Li Li: "The three of us with the surname Li should get out of the car now and go back to look for him, okay?"

Li Li opened her mouth wide. Of course, that was not what she meant. If she, Li Liang and Li Aiguo went back, wouldn't that be sending them to their deaths? Of course, she wanted Song Kaiji, Qu Weiwei and Tang Wenjie to rescue them. They had such powerful superpowers, why didn't they save her parents!

Song Kaiji realized that filial piety cannot be outsourced, but Li Li still planned to do so.

Li Aiguo had seen through Li Li's thoughts: "Aren't you saying this to provoke me and Kaiji? You also know that his last name is not Li, so what right does he have to control it?"

He was very disappointed with his niece and didn't want to consider her feelings anymore: "It's not that we didn't save you. Your parents are gone. They died as soon as we were caught and taken to the mountain. I have been thinking about how to tell you tactfully so that you wouldn't feel so bad, but you think of Kaiji like this. If they were still here, Kaiji would never have abandoned them when he ran away just now. Believe it or not, think whatever you want. Kaiji is different from you two. He is not my biological son, but he is more filial and conscientious than you two biological children. Just because he dared to go up the mountain to save me, you wouldn't dare to go up the mountain to save your parents!"

Li Li fell to the ground exhausted. On the one hand, she was shocked by the news of her parents' death. On the other hand, she found that her uncle and aunt had changed. She could get away with anything by crying, making trouble, and rolling around.

This trick has obviously always worked for me since I was a child, why has my second uncle changed?

Song Kaiji heaved a sigh of relief. His father had always been a man who could not afford to offend but could afford to avoid, and he had never said harsh words to anyone. This was the first time he had seen the good old man get so angry.

Opportunities are rare and will never come back. Song Kaiji was afraid that his father would be soft-hearted again in a few days, so he hurriedly said, "I haven't settled accounts with you yet, Mom and Dad. You don't know yet, but your car didn't break down. It was Li Liang who provoked the water-type supernatural person in the team. The other person's boyfriend got angry and deliberately did it. The two of them escaped, but you have to suffer this. To put it bluntly, wasn't the death of uncle and aunt caused by Li Liang?"

Li Liang's mouth was blocked and he could only stare at Song Kaiji angrily.

Li Aiguo and Zhang Sujuan were very surprised: "So that's how it is!" They still remembered the water-type supernatural being, who was a very good girl, but Li Liang always went to cause trouble for her. Li Aiguo had said something to Li Liang euphemistically a few times, but she didn't listen to him. The eldest brother and his wife spoiled the child and didn't take care of him much.

It can even be said that Li Liang's current temper has not changed much even in the end of the world, and it is all because of his eldest brother and his wife who spoiled him!

Song Kaiji nodded quickly: "I originally thought that if anything happened to you... I would kill Li Liang to pay for your lives. But now that you are rescued, I thought that with his personality, he might get into trouble again. Who knows if this will happen a second time? On the way from Hongcheng Base, we also encountered two or three good small strongholds. Why not leave them there."

After he said that, he quickly stared at Li Aiguo's expression, fearing that his father would say something like "forget it, forget it" again.

Li Aiguo looked at Li Liang and Li Li, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but he also knew that he had to make this decision. This was not before the end of the world, when he earned a lot, so he could just let it go, as it was nothing more than a small loss of money. But now it was the end of the world, and life was at stake. His life was nothing, but his son was still so young, and he couldn't bear to see Song Kaiji make any mistakes.

Besides, after Li Li's incident today, would the two brothers and sisters still be on the same page with them? It would be better to make a decision as soon as possible: "Then let's do this... If you have extra food, leave some for them, otherwise forget it."

This made Song Kaiji overjoyed: "Yes! I'll give them more!" It was not easy for his father to make such a decision. A little thing is nothing!

Li Aiguo regretted it after he finished speaking. How valuable is food in this world? With his ungrateful nephews and nieces and his caring and filial son, Li Aiguo's heart was completely tilted: "...Don't pack too much, just enough for them to eat for two days. There are so many people in this car. They are so old now, they should be able to make a living by themselves."

Li Li was now filled with regret and despair, crying, "Second Uncle, you can't be so cruel. How can we live if you abandon us? Aren't you asking us to die... I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that to cousin Kaiji, but my brother is the only boy in our Li family. You are doing this for this reason. Cousin Kaiji likes boys, and he will definitely not have children in the future. If you leave us here, my brother and I will be filial to you when we have children in the future, and provide for cousin in his old age."

Shen Qing, who was still in Song Kaiji's arms, was startled immediately. Then she remembered that they were in front of the parents. She quickly got out of Song Kaiji's arms uncomfortably and sat further away. Li Aiguo and Zhang Sujuan looked around awkwardly. After all, they were people of the older generation. It was strange to see the children being so affectionate in front of them.

Li Aiguo coughed lightly and said, "It's the end of the world now. We might all die tomorrow. Why would we still want to live in retirement?"

"Your aunt and I are not old-fashioned people. Your brother can like whoever he wants. Whether he wants to have children or not, we both support him." He secretly glanced at Shen Qing. He saw a pretty good-looking child. His son had good taste. He then moved his eyes to the window before Shen Qing noticed.

There were sporadic zombies wandering on the highway, and a faint human scent wafted from passing vehicles. The zombies chased for a few steps but quickly lost their target, and stayed where they were in confusion.

"Since the end of the world, I don't know how many people have died and how many families have been wiped out... Why can't the Li family do well?" Li Aiguo shook his head: "Besides, I didn't care about this in the first place."

They drove for a while, and after they were far away from the factory, they stopped to rest. Driving at night was still too dangerous, mainly to prevent mutant plants from doing something bad. Under the cover of the night, long vines stretched out in the middle of the road, just like the ancient tripwires, which could suddenly overturn the car and drag the flesh and blood inside back to be used as fertilizer.

Song Kaiji stuffed the things in the car into the space again, found clean clothes and food for Zhang Sujuan and Li Aiguo, and asked Qu Weiwei, Ge Bingbing and Chen Jiaqian to take care of the girl who was rescued.

They were hungry every day in the mountains. Human flesh was the "meat" that only those with special powers could eat. The slaves and "sex slaves" ate green paste made from tree bark mixed with unknown plants every day, and they didn't know whether it was poisonous or not. Looking at the steaming buns, the girl instinctively grabbed them and stuffed them into her mouth in a panic, but after taking two bites, she realized that she was worried that others would think she was too rude and ate too much, so she looked around the people in the car with some fear.

Her reaction was seen by the three girls, and the injuries on the girl's body made the other women so distressed that they almost cried: "These beasts!"

Qu Weiwei pushed the food towards the girl again: "Don't be afraid, these are for you to eat."

The girl lowered her head and took another small bite of the bun, still feeling very uneasy. Her name was Yu Le, and she was abducted to the mountain with Zhang Sujuan and the others, and she had some friendship with Zhang Sujuan. So she knew that although Zhang Sujuan looked timid and numb, and didn't dare to talk much to them, she was not a bad person, so she chose to help when Zhang Sujuan took action.

But she had seen Song Kaiji trying to drive Li Li away just now, and was worried that Aunt Zhang's son was not as easy to talk to as Aunt Zhang, and would abandon her and Li Li together. She timidly pulled Qu Weiwei's sleeve and said, "Sister, can you take me to the Hongcheng base? I have relatives and friends there, and I won't rely on you. I can also eat less these days. No, I can not eat."

Qu Weiwei touched her hair distressedly: "Don't worry, our boss is not such a cruel person. You also heard that we want to drive Li Li away because she has her own problems... Just stay in the car and we will take you back to Hongcheng Base."
