Chapter 25 Salvaging Supermarket Supplies

Chapter 25 Salvaging Supermarket Supplies

Gu Luan had just packed up and was ready to go out when she received a message from Bai Yue, asking her if she wanted to go out together to look for supplies.

Gu Luan asked Zhang Yan and the others for their opinions, and after getting their agreement, decided to take Bai Yue with them.

Bai Yueren is a good person. He has another rubber boat. One more rubber boat means a lot more supplies.

Although Gu Luan has no shortage of supplies, who would complain about having too much?

The four of them gathered downstairs of Building 3. Bai Yue sat on the rubber boat and greeted them happily.

The four of them didn't waste any time and the three rubber boats left the community.

Many people in the community watched with envy.

Ever since I found out that Gu Luan, Zhang Yan and the other two were murderers, I didn't dare to borrow anything from them.

Only Bai Yue's rubber boat was still someone's favorite.

The fifth-floor supermarket in the small county town is not far from Jiayuan Community and it only takes a short while to get there.

It has been more than half a month since the end of the world, and there are already quite a few people outside.

Some paddled rubber boats, while others made their own water tools.

Seeing that Gu Luan and his three companions actually had three rubber boats, they all looked at him with envy.

"arrive."

Bai Yue compared the building and confirmed that the building under water was the supermarket.

Through the muddy flood, only the edges and corners of the buildings can be vaguely seen.

Gu Luan and Zhang Yan began to put on diving equipment and carry oxygen tanks.

She and Zhang Yan both carried 12-liter oxygen cylinders.

It can last about 40 minutes underwater at a depth of about 20 meters, and must come up to rest every once in a while.

"Sister Gu, you have to be careful."

"Sister, Brother Zhang, please be careful."

Bai Yue and Tan Tao tied ropes for the two of them respectively to avoid any accidents.

Gu Luan and Zhang Yan looked at each other, then jumped into the muddy water and swam quickly towards the supermarket under the illumination of the searchlight.

When he arrived at the destination, Zhang Yan took out a hammer and hit the glass outside the supermarket hard.

After a while, the glass shattered and Gu Luan and Zhang Yan swam in.

All items in the supermarket are suspended on the water.

Zhang Yan and Gu Luan took net bags and looked for food that was well packaged.

Gu Luan was in the snack area, and she nimbly grabbed the snacks in the water and put them into the net bag.

Zhang Yan went to the fast food area and found a lot of soy milk powder and sesame paste in addition to instant noodles.

After about ten minutes, the two filled the large net bag and swam towards the surface together.

Seeing the two people floating up, Bai Yue and Tan Tao hurriedly took the things and put them aside.

"Sister Gu, can you still hold on?"

Bai Yue was a little worried. It was so cold underwater and Gu Luan was a girl, so she was afraid she couldn't bear it.

Gu Luan made an OK gesture and went into the water again with Zhang Yan.

Most of the things in the supermarket were rotten due to water.

Gu Luan and Zhang Yan still found a lot of useful things, including food and daily necessities.

In addition to snacks, I also found some vacuum-packed rice, cooking oil, soy sauce and vinegar...

Neither of them spared any opportunity to take advantage of anything that was not broken.

Gu Luan was still storing soaked rice and other soaked but still usable things into the underwater space.

When food is scarce, soaked rice can still be eaten as long as it is not completely rotten.

When she came up the second time, Bai Yue embarrassedly asked Gu Luan to help her get some female products, and she was willing to go back and exchange them for food.

The three rubber boats were filled with things salvaged by Gu Luan and Zhang Yan.

With the help of Bai Yue and Tan Tao, the two climbed onto the rubber boat.

"You found so many things, can you give us some?"

Several rubber boats slowly approached Gu Luan and his companions. Everyone's eyes lit up as they stared at the food on the rubber boats.

"Get out of here. If you come over here again, the knife in my hand won't recognize you."

Tan Tao fiercely raised the machete he got on the mountain last time and swung it hard, threatening anyone who approached.

"You are so heartless. Everyone is short of food. What's wrong with you giving us some of your food?"

"Yeah, I don't know if it can be saved."

Gu Luan didn't want to listen to any nonsense, so he raised his crossbow and shot at the young man who was talking the most enthusiastically.

The young man's face turned pale, but it was too late for him to dodge. A large piece of flesh was scraped off his face by the crossbow arrow.

Blood flowed down his cheeks. The young man almost fainted when he saw so much blood on his face.

Gu Luan’s first arrow was a warning. If these people still wanted to steal her things, they could die.

Apparently these people still had some sense and did not dare to provoke Gu Luan and the other three, so they let them leave.

Gu Luan held her thermos cup and motioned Zhang Yan to take out his cup.

Zhang Yan was stunned and handed over his cup, into which Gu Luan had poured half a cup of brown sugar ginger tea.

"Drink it. It's not a good thing to be sick at this time."

Gu Luan drank the ginger tea in the cup in one gulp and spoke softly.

After all, Zhang Yan was his temporary teammate and a nice person, so giving him half a cup of ginger tea was nothing.

Zhang Yan thanked him in surprise and drank the ginger tea in big gulps.

The four of them quickly returned to the community, moved all their belongings to the tenth floor of Building 3, and packed up the rubber boat.

A resident on the eleventh floor heard the noise and secretly peeked over. When he saw the supplies in front of Gu Luan and others, his eyes turned red with jealousy.

They really wanted to rob it, but unfortunately they didn't have the courage.

The four of them quickly divided the things in the corridor.

Bai Yue took a small portion of her food and exchanged it for feminine products with Gu Luan, then left contentedly.

This time when he went out, Gu Luan was given six 10-jin bags of vacuum rice.

Two large bags of snacks, six bags of soy milk powder, five barrels of adult milk powder, and a lot of corn flour, sesame paste and other foods.

The feminine products were exchanged with Bai Yue for a few bags of corn paste.

There are more than ten buckets (bags) of instant noodles in bags and barrels.

There were also twenty-seven bottles of drinks, five barrels of cooking oil, and a lot of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and seasonings.

There were also a lot of water-soaked toilet paper, skin care products, toothpaste, shampoo, etc.

Throwing everything into the space, Gu Luan went to the bathroom to take a hot bath.

After all the busy work, I was already hungry.

Having not eaten instant noodles for a long time, Gu Luan simply cooked a pack of instant noodles, took out a portion of crayfish, and watched a funny variety show.

After eating, Gu Luan took out the things he brought back from the mountain last time.

Hundreds of pounds of bamboo shoots are cut and put into the pot to cook for a while.

Take it out and soak it in water, then drain the water and put it in a space. You can stir-fry it directly when you want to eat it in the future.

As for the dug herbs, Gu Luan found an empty container and put them in it.

The next day, Gu Luan went out alone and drove a rubber boat towards the mountain.

It’s okay anyway, she plans to go to the mountains to dig herbs.

There were a lot of herbs, and Gu Luan dug a small bag of them in a short while. One person's strength was limited, and she was not very satisfied with her progress.

Before the end of the world, she also stockpiled a lot of Chinese medicinal materials in various pharmacies.

But this thing would freeze to death in extreme cold weather, so she hopes to stock up as much as she can now.

"Do you want these things?"

A voice came from behind Gu Luan, with a tentative and cautious tone.

Gu Luan looked back and saw a young woman in her early thirties with a boy about ten years old standing behind her.

Both of them were very thin, especially the young woman, who had many bruises on her face.

Seeing Gu Luan looking at her with a strange expression, the young woman subconsciously raised her hands to cover her face.

The boy stood in front of the young woman and looked at Gu Luan warily.

It seemed that once Gu Luan did something bad, he would go berserk.

"You have?"

Gu Luan asked in a low voice, his eyes returning to normal.

"I have quite a few. I wonder if I can trade some food with you?"

The young woman lowered her head, not daring to meet Gu Luan's eyes.

There was actually a hint of war in her eyes, fearing that Gu Luan was a bad person, but hunger forced her to take a gamble.

Seeing that Gu Luan didn't say anything, the young woman said anxiously, "You don't need too much, a pack of instant noodles will do."

She was trembling slightly, as if she was praying with all her strength.
