Chapter 110 It's like moral kidnapping

Not wanting to recall the past, Xue Kai quickly changed the subject, "Alright, as long as the five of us are alive, we're going to carry forward the spirit of the baseball club. Besides, we have Sister Sheng now. Sister Sheng is so smart, she's sure to live a long time!"

Liang Yingsheng remained silent, thank you!

It's like moral kidnapping.

The journey back was smooth, but the snowflakes outside were getting bigger and bigger, and the grass and treetops were faintly covered with a layer of silver.

Through the rearview mirror, Liang Yingsheng suddenly noticed Yuan Xuyang sitting in the corner of the last row.

This guy seemed to have said little today, and she almost forgot he was with her.

Looking at that expression, is this, a broken heart?

It has only been half a month since Yuan Xuyang came to Jiangnan Middle School. Has he ever been in love?

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly noticed Yuan Xuyang's gaze. Liang Yingsheng touched the tip of his nose and just frowned.

When they arrived at Jiangnan Middle School, Liang Qiuwen, Zhou Lanxin and Yuan Xuyang's family were already waiting at the gate.

Zhou Lanxin, Grandma Chen, and her daughter-in-law Lin Xiu had red eyes, as if they had just cried.

Seeing the person they had been thinking about return safely, they all went forward to hug him.

"I was so worried, I thought something happened to you guys too."

Zhou Lanxin hugged Liang Yingsheng tightly, her voice choking with sobs: "Is Shengsheng in any danger? We have everything we need. We should not go out on such missions in the future."

Noticing something was wrong, Liang Yingsheng asked in confusion, "Mom and Dad, what's going on? Did something happen?"

Zhou Lanxin sniffed, "Well, the team that went looking for food is back. Except for the comrade who led the team and a college student, the rest were almost killed by zombies. One of them mutated after returning here."

The others were shocked after hearing this, but Liang Yingsheng remained calm. In today's world, going out to find supplies means taking such risks.

The team should be led by Cao Lei.

There were nine people in a car, but only two came back. Except for the family of the deceased, the others did not feel much sadness, and even showed happy expressions when they saw thick clothes.

In the end times, human beings’ ability to empathize has long been exhausted, even if everyone lives in the same shelter.

The snow got heavier, turning from dandruff into obvious snowflakes.

The temperature was still dropping, and several military and police officers asked those who had not prepared winter clothes to line up and receive the clothes first.

The firewood-collecting team had a good harvest, but a cart of firewood was still a drop in the bucket for this shelter that accommodated more than a thousand people.

After discussion, everyone decided to go out to collect firewood tomorrow. Jiangcheng has a flat terrain, and there is only a not particularly high mountain a few kilometers away.

By night, the entire school was covered with snow, the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the temperature had dropped to more than 20 degrees below zero.

The problem of clothes has been temporarily solved, but now we are facing a shortage of bedding.

In the evening, Xue Kai invited Liang Yingsheng and his sister to visit their dormitory. Liang Yingsheng then found out that Xue Kai and his three companions had rented a four-person dormitory with a pack of cigarettes from their collection, and the five of them were sleeping in a crowded room.

Each bed only had a sheet with a thin quilt on top. It was freezing cold outside and the temperature inside was also extremely low. Just looking at Liang Yingsheng made me shiver.

Also invited this time were Sui Yi and Yuan Xuyang.

"Sister Sheng, it's too cold outside. We're going to cook up some leftover instant noodles and have a big meal. You're our teammates now, so let's share some good stuff!"

The third brother echoed, "It's a pity that Brother Du is too busy to come. Sister Sheng will give you the first cup of instant noodles!"

It's really described as a cup because they are served in disposable cups.

It's really sad to watch.

"Don't just stand there and eat quickly. It's so cold outside that it will get cold in a second. The instant noodle soup is hot now. It's so refreshing to drink it!"

Xue Kai finished the instant noodle soup in the cup in one gulp, a satisfied expression on his face, and poured himself another cup.

Liang Yingsheng gave Liang Zhimo a look.

Liang Zhimo understood, "I'll go back and get something, you guys eat first."

Soon, Liang Zhimo came in carrying a black plastic bag. He placed the bag on the worn wooden table, and the sound of cans colliding was heard immediately.

Everyone was a little curious, "Doctor Liang, what did you take?"

"can."

Liang Zhimo took out three cans of food and said, "The medical fees I earned from helping someone with their illness should be good if I cut them up and put them in instant noodle soup."

As soon as they saw the can, Xue Kai and others' eyes turned green, and they watched Liang Zhimo open the can and cut it into small pieces with a knife and put the luncheon meat inside into the pot.

"Gurgle—"

Xue Kai swallowed his saliva, "It really is canned food, canned luncheon meat, Sister Sheng, you and Dr. Liang are simply our reborn parents!"

Perhaps he felt embarrassed not to bring out something, so Yuan Xuyang went back and got a bag of five-spice melon seeds.

He casually and mysteriously provided beer, the kind in cans, only four bottles, and poured some for each person.

As the child ate, tears suddenly welled up in his eyes. He choked up and said, "I'm so touched. Woohoo! If my parents knew I can still eat canned food and drink beer, they would definitely be very happy."

Lao Wu started crying, "My parents, grandparents, and my great-grandparents were all bitten to death. We were on a video call, and I saw with my own eyes that the zombies pounced on them..."

The originally warm atmosphere suddenly became weird.

After all, their parents are still alive, and now the whole family has arrived at the shelter safely. Liang Yingsheng and his sister and Yuan Xuyang have no say, but they casually act as intimate older sisters to comfort them.

"That's good. The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn. Look at us now. We're so moved by eating a bowl of instant noodles. Who knows when we might die of starvation, cold, or anything else? I still want to be one of the first zombies!"

The words may be rough, but the truth is there. After all, they are grown boys. After thinking about it, they felt that it was true.

As expected of someone who studied psychology in college, he can come up with such a mess of theories at will.

Halfway through the meal, a biting cold wind blew, making everyone shiver.

"Boss, can we squeeze our beds together tonight? It's so damn cold, I can't handle it alone."

The quilts were distributed by the shelter. They are very thin and not enough since it is so cold outside.

The resources in the shelter are extremely limited, and it is a great achievement to be able to distribute these to survivors for free.

In fact, it is indeed warmer to put the beds together and sleep in a crowded manner like a large bunk bed.

After finishing the noodle soup in the paper cup, Liang Yingsheng wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "We have a quilt in the car. We found it in a house where someone had died. If you don't mind..."

Before he finished speaking, Xue Kai and the others nodded repeatedly, "No, no, I don't mind. I'm almost dead, who would mind a dead person's things?"

"That's right, we're still counting on the dead's things to save us living people!"

Liang Yingsheng just made up an excuse. The quilt was taken out from the space. It was the bed that Liang Zhimo used when they lived in Fenghuang Community.
