The two cars braked suddenly with the harsh sound of tires rubbing against the ground.

A dozen meters ahead, the highway seemed to be split open, and the collapsed road surface formed a hideous rift.

Twisted scrapped cars were piled up into a mountain, and the road was completely blocked.

"Nannan, I need to trouble you!" As soon as Chi Yanzhou finished speaking, Lu Nange raised his hand and waved.

The two cars disappeared out of thin air and were put into her system backpack.

"Let's go!" Chi Yanzhou shouted in a low voice, and several people quickly climbed over the guardrail and jumped off the roadbed.

Inseparable from the scorching heat on the asphalt road, a cool and humid breeze envelops us the moment we step into the woods.

The woods were filled with the damp smell of rotting leaves.

The boys tacitly formed a protective circle, surrounding Lu Nange, Gu Wan and Lu Beiye in the middle.

The woods were eerily quiet.

The chirping of cicadas and birds disappeared, leaving only the rustling of branches and leaves.

Everyone subconsciously held their breath and quickened their pace. The crisp sound of their soles crushing dead branches seemed particularly harsh in the silence.

After half an hour of nervous rushing, we finally got around that section of the road.

Lu Nange raised his hand and waved lightly, and two cars appeared out of thin air on the highway.

Everyone quickly got into the car, the engine roared, and continued to speed towards Ning City.

Ning City is located at a high altitude, so the closer you are to the city, the better preserved the supplies are in the service areas along the way.

Even though the place had been cleared by the survivors, what they could take away was limited.

This is also the reason why Chi Yanzhou and his companions did not choose to return by the same route, but instead took a detour to Ning City.

They planned to stay in Ningcheng for a while, stock up on supplies in Lu Nange's space, and then set off back to Beijing.

***

The car just stopped at the last service area near Ning City.

The roars of zombies came from all directions.

After the black rain, the zombies moved much faster.

Twisted limbs running at incredible angles,

His pitted and ulcerated face was covered with black and red rotten flesh, and his cloudy eyeballs were fixed on their vehicle.

Chi Yanzhou pushed the door open and jumped out, his hands slightly raised and his black eyes narrowed.

"boom--!"

In an instant, the lightning snake exploded with him as the center.

The zombies were instantly chopped to a crisp, and the monsters behind them fell down twitching. The air was filled with the stench of burnt flesh.

Lightning flashed, Chi Yanzhou's body swayed, and he held up the hood of the car with one hand.

"Young Master!" Chi Yi rushed forward.

Chi Yanzhou waved his hands, and the hair on his forehead was soaked with cold sweat.

"Brother Yan, get in the car and take a rest. Leave the cleanup to us!"

During this period of time, the young ladies and gentlemen who had been pampered while raiding for supplies have been trained.

It is a shocking way of plundering, and anyone who sees it will have to praise it as excellent.

After all, wherever they swept, the rats would turn around and run away.

In the service area, Lu Nange was obsessed with collecting gas cylinders in various small shops.

After learning a skill from Chi Yi, she is now a professional in dismantling gas tanks.

When they came out, the service area had already been looted.

In the empty shop, even the footsteps had an eerie echo.

"Look at this steel and glass..." Ji Xian squatted at the entrance of the service area, tapping the glass curtain wall with his fingers.

He Zhuo, Ji Xian and Gu Qi got together to figure out how to dismantle it.

Gu Wan was still strolling around, knocking here and there, afraid that any fish would slip through the net.

Next to the car, Lu Xici and Lu Beiye sat on chairs, watching Lu Nange holding a Tang sword and chewing on the zombies' brains.

The sound of the knife tip picking through the rotten flesh was teeth-grinding, and she enjoyed it very much.

He Zhuo stopped taking down the glass and came over with his nose pinched: "Nannan, what kind of swordsmanship are you practicing?"

"clang——"

Lu Nange used his Tang sword to scrape out a grayish-white crystal core: "In the last novel, zombies have crystal cores in their brains. I dug it out and found that there really is one!"

The crystal core covered with brain matter almost hit He Zhuo's face.

He Zhuo took two steps back, his face turned blue, and he retched.

***

Lu Nange took out a red plastic bucket from the system backpack and threw it on the ground with a "bang".

The red plastic bucket contained rainwater that she had stored in large buckets on the rooftop during the heavy rain period.

As soon as he put on the rubber gloves, Lu Beiye came over.

"Sister, let's pick it up together!"

The brother and sister squatted in front of the pile of zombies and threw the crystal cores into the bucket one by one, like picking wheat ears in harvest season.

"Aye, do you want it?" Lu Nange shook the crystal core stained with brain matter in his hand.

The little boy shook his head, with a smile on his chubby face: "Sister, this is useless to me."

He raised his eyes and looked towards the RV, "But Brother Yanzhou can."

Crash——

Under the flushing of clear water, more than a dozen crystal cores clinked at the bottom of the bucket.

"Try holding it in your palm?" She handed the bucket to Chi Yanzhou who had just got off the car.

The boy lowered his eyes and picked up a crystal core with his bony fingers.

Chi Yanzhou closed his eyes, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his cold and pale face.

The moment my palms closed, the grayish-white crystals turned into fine sand and flowed out from between my fingers.

"Brother Yan, how is it?" He Zhuo's head suddenly popped out from between the two of them.

Chi Yanzhou raised his eyelids and glanced at him, with lightning flashing in his eyes: "My supernatural power has recovered by 30%."

"The novel is not deceiving me!" Lu Nange immediately stuffed the red bucket into his arms, "It's all for you."

"Thank you, Nan Nan!"

The tall and long-legged boy was leaning against the car door, holding a red plastic bucket that was extremely inconsistent with his temperament.

His eyebrows were relaxed and soft, and there was a smile at the corners of his mouth.
