Doomsday Grocery Store

Tang Yu’an’s family ran a small grocery store, and every day after school, he would help out by watching over the shop.

That afternoon, his parents had gone out to buy supplies, leaving o...

Chapter 336

Following the instructions of passers-by, Chi Hao came to the bus stop at the entrance of his home and took the Line 6 bus.

This is the last bus of the day.

It used to take him several days to get from Huangcheng to Lanhu Town, but now he can take a long-distance bus and get there in just 12 hours, which means he can reach Lanhu Town at 7 o'clock the next morning.

The buses in Huangcheng Home are much more advanced than the old and dilapidated buses in Qingmu Fort. They are not only clean and tidy, but also have many advanced functions.

He was obviously from the richest fortress in the wasteland, but when he came to the deserted city home this time, he felt like a country bumpkin who came to an international metropolis for the first time, and everything he saw was new to him.

The bus slowly left home and headed towards Jufeng Mountain.

The road can accommodate two buses running parallel to each other, and there are sidewalks on both sides. On both sides of the sidewalks, there is a small sapling at intervals.

The sapling has blue leaves and looks a bit like a blue beech tree.

Although it was already past seven in the evening, it was not yet completely dark, so through the protective barrier one could see the flooded land outside.

Chi Hao even saw huge black shadows swimming in the water.

No matter how many times he watched this scene, it still felt incredible. The world outside the protective barrier was the wasteland he was familiar with!

"Chi Hao? Is it really you?"

At this moment, a female voice came from behind him.

Chi Hao blinked, turned his head and looked over, carefully identifying the woman standing in the aisle. It took him a long time to recognize her: "Gu Xue? Why are you here?"

Gu Xue is also a person with special abilities trained by Qingmu Castle, and they have carried out missions together before.

"Haha, it's a long story."

After Chi Hao reported the situation in the center of the deserted city to Qingmu Fort, Qingmu Fort sent Li Feng and others to investigate the situation of the space cracks and cultivate local forces.

Gu Xue was one of the six-member team, and was from the same family as the deceased Gu Zhenfei.

"Our operation in the deserted city was not going well. Later, Qingmu Fort sent a large force over, but it was of no use."

At that time, the three places of "Huangcheng-Jufeng Mountain-Linhai" had been connected, forming a protective barrier that they could not break through at all.

Although Li Feng and others later tried to use long-range attacks to destroy the fence, the road was specially designed when it was built, so destroying one or two sections of the fence would not affect the protective barriers elsewhere.

This behavior undoubtedly angered the people of Huangcheng Home.

Although there are not many high-level psychics in the deserted city home, there are many guardian beasts raised, and each one is very powerful.

Hearing this, Chi Hao showed a strange expression.

"Is there a four-eyed dog named Yuanbao among them?" He seemed to recall some unpleasant memories.

Gu Xue said: "There is indeed a four-eyed dog, but I don't know if its name is Yuanbao."

Chi Hao nodded.

"We paid a heavy price," said Gu Xue.

"Then what's wrong with you?"

"I escaped successfully." Gu Xue said, "Gu Zhenfei is dead. If I go back to Qingmu Fort, I will definitely not be able to explain to the Gu family, so I just joined the Huangcheng Home."

In fact, when Huangcheng Home was frequently poaching people, Gu Xue wanted to leave, but because she was not sure whether Huangcheng Home would accept people from Qingmu Fort, she did not dare to leave.

Since they were all going to die anyway, there was nothing for her to worry about.

"I didn't expect that the Deserted City Home would really treat us equally and accept us." Gu Xue said with a smile.

"You guys?" Chi Hao raised an eyebrow. "Apart from you, are there any others?"

"Yes, and a few others."

In fact, many of the people with special abilities who are able to be sent abroad are orphans like Chi Hao and Hong Li who have been raised in the fortress since childhood. Some of them have been brainwashed to become loyal tools, but not all of them are like this.

In any case, Gu Xue had no sense of belonging to Qingmu Fort, and her surrender to Huangcheng Home was forced by the situation, but Huangcheng Home did not seem to need her loyalty.

As long as she abides by the rules, she can live in her home, which is ten thousand times easier than the high-pressure environment in the fortress before!

"I don't want to leave here anymore." Gu Xue said, "I just hope that the Shangshen Sect can exist for a long time... By the way, why are you here? Your sister also rebelled against Qingmu Castle, so you..."

Chi Hao nodded, and then told her about the current situation in Qingmu Castle.

"You said the fortress is gone?" Gu Xue heard the news for the first time and couldn't help but look dazed.

"If you want to go back, you should be able to go to the home in the deserted city and find Mr. Li to apply." Chi Hao thought of Lin Zhen's application to go to the alien planet. He felt that if people from the deserted city wanted to go to Qingmu Fort, it should be possible.

"Okay, let me think about it."

When they arrived at the foot of Jufeng Mountain, Gu Xue got off the car.

Chi Hao was sitting on the bus, looking outside through the window, and found that there was a new street at the foot of Jufeng Mountain, with houses built on both sides of the road.

Just by looking at it, you can imagine how bustling it is during the day.

Soon, the bus set off again.

After leaving Jufeng Mountain, the road quickly became desolate. As the night deepened, Chi Hao gradually felt bored and began to close his eyes to rest.

Before he knew it, he fell asleep.

He was suddenly awakened when the sunlight shone through the glass window. He was nervous at first because he was not vigilant enough, but he soon relaxed.

Although there were seven or eight other passengers on the bus, everyone stayed in their seats properly and slept soundly, as if they were not worried about their property or personal safety at all.

Chi Hao also knew the mandatory nature of the overnight stay rules, but when he saw this scene, many emotions still welled up in his heart.

It turns out that in just over a year, the world can undergo such great changes...

At seven o'clock in the morning, the bus arrived at Lanhu Station on time.

Chi Hao got off the bus, and when he noticed the bus stop sign said the next stop was Chifeng Station, he sighed again.

Chifeng Town and Lanhu Town should be hostile forces, right? When he first arrived in Lanhu Town, he was almost labeled a spy because his name contained the word "Chi".

And now, both Lanhu Town and Chifeng Town are open to traffic!

When Chi Hao walked towards Lanhu Town, he found that the guards who were patrolling outside Lanhu Forest were nowhere to be seen.

When he walked into the Blue Hu forest, he saw a small wooden house. Two Blue Hu people were sitting in front of the house. When they saw him, they waved to him.

"First time in Lanhu Town? Come and register."

Chi Hao walked over.

Just like in Huangcheng Home, he received a night accommodation card after registering and paying. After the points in the night accommodation card are cleared, he needs to renew it in time, otherwise he will still be sent out of Lanhu Town.

Of course, it will not be sent out of the protective barrier, because the road the bus is traveling on belongs to the deserted city home.

"Then can I come in?"

"Please."

Chi Hao took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little nervous and uneasy, but of course more excited.

As a result, before he turned around and walked into the Blue Hu forest, the two Blue Hu people who were sitting on the chairs suddenly stood up.

"Lord!"

Chi Hao was stunned, then turned around and looked back.

I saw a thin figure appear under the beautiful and dreamy blue beard tree not far away.

The man stood in the morning sunlight, his lovely blue eyes gazing at him, his lips curved in a slight smile.

Chi Hao couldn't help but stare in amazement and subconsciously moved closer.

The two Blue Hu guards hurried to stop him, but heard their lord say, "Stop, he's a distinguished guest of Blue Hu Town."

It was then that one of the guards noticed the pendant on Chi Hao's chest. Wasn't that the crystal gem of the Blue Hu tree?

As long as you hand over this gem, Lan Hu Town will mobilize the entire clan to help the other party once! This proves that the red-haired young man in front of them is Lan Hu Town’s great benefactor, and Lan Hu Town owes him a huge favor!

The guards' attitude suddenly became respectful.

Chi Hao also came back to his senses. He coughed lightly, tidied his appearance, and then walked towards Lan Yunqing.

"You came from the Deserted City Home?" Lan Yunqing asked, "Why didn't you tell me? I can give you permission to teleport."

Chi Hao scratched his hair uncomfortably and said, "I wanted to give you a surprise."

Then he took out a paper bag from his personal storage, "Do you want some? These are the sugar-roasted chestnuts I bought at the Deserted City Homestead."

Because it was placed in the portable storage, it was still warm at this time.

Lan Yunqing looked at him and smiled gently.

He shook his head and said, "Come on, I'll take you to Lanhu Town for a walk."

"You really don't want to eat it? I endured it all the way here to bring it to you!"

"You have to peel the shell."

"Okay, I'll peel it for you."

The two guards watched their figures gradually disappear into the distance. They vaguely seemed to see their lord lean forward slightly and take a chestnut from the red-haired young man's hand into his mouth...

By the time they wanted to take a closer look, their figures had completely disappeared in the blue hyacinth forest.

After getting the approval of Old Li, Lin Zhen and Lan Lin finally stepped onto the teleportation array and arrived in the Chinese world.

They are the second group of aliens to come to China to study, in addition to Granny Guo and Kang Kang. The country attaches great importance to them and has special people to lead them and arrange everything for them on the alien planet.

Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi, who were busy clearing out the mutants, also took the time to come and meet the two of them.

However, Lin Zhen had no intention of reminiscing with them. She had already plunged into the ocean of knowledge and forgotten everything else.

Lan Lin was more interested in mutants, so he followed the troops to the disaster area. His powerful abilities also impressed the Chinese people.

Time moves forward slowly and quickly.

Unknowingly, more than half a year had passed in the Chinese world. With the help of several divine messengers and divine beasts from the Ping'an Chamber of Commerce, the mutant species on the land of China were finally cleared out.

The protective barrier erected at the border was also pushed outward to the original border line.

The land that China lost in the end times has finally been completely recovered!

Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi, who have been busy traveling around the country for the past six months, can finally take a break and give themselves a vacation.

"I haven't been to the wasteland for a long time! It should have been almost a year and a half or two years there, right?" Tang Yu'an said.

"more than."

While they were away fighting, Tang Xueyun, who was in charge of the message in the bottle transaction, shook her head and said, "It's been almost five years over there."

Tang Yu'an was stunned. "Ah? So fast! Has the world fusion accelerated again?"

From the original 1:1 to 1:3, and now to 1:10, I’m afraid it won’t be long before it completely becomes 1:30, right?

Thinking of this, Tang Yu'an could no longer sit still.

He quickly pulled Zhou Qi and dragged him towards the teleportation array. After so much time had passed, the wasteland world must have changed a lot!

"I wonder how Grandpa is doing?"

Although they often contacted each other through the message board, Tang Yu'an couldn't help but worry and anxious when he thought that they hadn't been back for five years.

Although they have returned to their original world, the feelings they had for each other before were not fake.

Tang Yu'an truly regards Old Li as his grandfather.

Grandpa Li is already old. After these five years, he must have become even older, right?

Tang Yu'an was worried, but Zhou Qi comforted him, "Grandpa Li is a person with special abilities. His life span is longer than that of ordinary people. He should be fine for the time being."

"I hope so!"

When they arrived at the deserted city home, Tang Yu'an looked at the map and saw that Grandpa Li's light was in Room 501, so he quickly pulled Zhou Qi downstairs to find him.

"Grandpa! We're back... eh?"

After pushing the door open, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi did not see the old figure they remembered. Instead, sitting behind the desk was a middle-aged man with black hair and black eyes, who looked quite majestic and stern.

When Li Changqing saw them, he also stood up unexpectedly.

He showed a kind and gentle smile and said softly, "Xiao An, Xiao Qi, you are finally back!"

The author has something to say:

An An: After not seeing you for half a year, Grandpa Li has become Uncle Li!
