Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse

Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...

Chapter 833: Fight for It

Li Sikai smiled and waved his hand: "Go ahead and do it."

Bi Qiaoan came over holding An An and asked in a low voice: "Why did you take so long?" From morning to night, the sun was about to set.

Li Sikai looked around and saw no one. He looked at An An again and saw his big eyes rolling around.

Bi Qiaoan understood immediately and sent Anan to Ji Kangyong to wait. After returning, he heard Li Sikai ask: "Are those three people the ones who eat people here?"

"Not only that, the whole area to the east is full of people who have eaten people." Bi Qiaoan did not hide it.

Li Sikai breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice to say, "Everyone over there is dead. It looks like they were infected with some kind of epidemic disease."

Bi Qiaoan was surprised and thought, I just gave him some medicine. Could it be that the symptoms looked like a disease?

But she didn't dare to say anything, she just nodded: "This is retribution."

Li Sikai said, "I'm afraid the disease will spread. We can't delay any longer. Let's leave early tomorrow morning."

Bi Qiaoan nodded and asked, "Okay, do you want to remind them?"

Although she knew that it was most likely not an epidemic, what if there was an accident? Moreover, her gentle and kind personality could not be shattered.

"Let's tell the truth, otherwise, I'm afraid they will stay here and not want to leave." It's true that the road outside is difficult to walk on, and it's also true that there are hidden risks. Not everyone is willing to join the guards at this time.

"By the way, there is a group of skinny people in the south, they..."

Bi Qiaoan thought for a moment and said, "I heard that there was a group of people who didn't want to eat humans, so they ran away. It might be those people."

Li Sikai smiled and said, "Well, I'm glad I didn't help the wrong person."

In the evening, Huo Zhongli called everyone to eat. There was a shortage of tableware here, so everyone shared it.

Li Sikai declined: "We have eaten outside, you guys can eat first."

"Oh, you guys are so nice! Not only do you not eat our rice, you even send us wild vegetables."

"That's right, you are so nice. If we had teammates like you earlier, we wouldn't have to suffer from hunger!"

Li Sikai listened to everyone's praise and felt warm all over, with a surge of faith rushing into his mind. He just didn't know when the space could be upgraded.

He took out a lunch box from his backpack and motioned Bi Qiaoan to hide in the corner to eat.

Bi Qiaoan was not polite, and took it and walked away with An An. The two opened the lunch box and looked at the full white rice, wild vegetables, and eggs inside, and were moved to tears.

She and An An had no shortage of food, but in the past two days, they had been eating candy, chocolate, and dried meat secretly and had not had a proper meal.

"Come on, baby, let's try your Uncle Li's cooking." Bi Qiaoan joked, scooping a spoonful of food with a spoon and feeding it to An An.

The little guy put it in his mouth with saliva drooling, chewed it twice, and looked at Bi Qiaoan with a complicated expression.

"What's wrong, dear?" She looked at the little hamster's puffy cheeks and thought it was so cute that she couldn't help but poke it.

An An pursed her lips and didn't dare to spit it out. After swallowing it with great difficulty, she said, "It's not delicious."

Bi Qiaoan laughed, took a sip to taste it himself, and almost spit it out.

What kind of dark cuisine is this? The rice is undercooked, and the wild vegetables are made into a paste. I don't know how much salt and vinegar are added. It tastes bitter, astringent, salty and sour.

"No wonder they asked me to cook." Bi Qiaoan muttered, then started eating with big mouthfuls.

Baby An An is still young, so he should not eat such strong flavors. She left the eggs for him and ate the rest herself.

After the two of them finished eating, Bi Qiaoan quietly asked An An: "Are you full? Do you want to eat more?"

An An nodded: "I'm still a little hungry."

Bi Qiaoan looked around and saw that the crowd was still far away, so he quickly took out a small bun from the space and covered it with his body so that An An could eat it quickly.

The little guy smiled like a mouse stealing oil. After eating, he exhaled twice and asked his mother to smell it to see if there was any smell.

When the mother and son returned home, it was already completely dark. Li Sikai asked embarrassedly, "Is it not tasty?"

Bi Qiaoan smiled: "It's okay."

"Don't give us face. Among us, only Lao Ji has good skills, but he was the one who did it today. I heard from him that you have good skills, so I'll leave it to you from now on." Li Sikai said with his hands clasped.

Bi Qiaoan nodded: "No problem."

After everyone finished eating, Li Sikai said to everyone with a serious face: "Everyone in the east died suddenly. We suspect that there is an epidemic over there. For everyone's sake, we should leave as soon as possible."

Huo Zhongli asked in disbelief: "Really? Wu Haipeng, is dead?"

"Who is Wu Haipeng?" Li Sikai asked subconsciously, then felt that the question was meaningless, so he said: "There are dozens of bodies over there, and we can't tell their identities."

It was at this moment that he remembered that he had not dealt with the smart bracelet.

But if the person dies, the smart bracelet will be useless. Even if it is picked up by someone, without fingerprints, it is just a jewelry.

"Wu Haipeng is their new boss, and he's very ruthless. But it doesn't matter now." Huo Zhongli scratched his head: "Brother, when are you leaving? Can we follow you?"

Li Sikai was under a lot of pressure from the burning gazes around him. He could only try to explain: "We are not going to the escort team. We need to find someone else."

"Where are you going to look? Brothers will accompany you. If there are few people going out these days, what if someone robs or kidnaps you?"

Huo Zhongli's worries were not unreasonable, but what he was facing were several powerless men.

Li Sikai thanked him gratefully but still declined: "I don't know exactly where it is, but it's definitely far away. If you follow me, it will delay the progress. If possible, you should rush to the escort team as soon as possible. Believe me, there will be advantages if you arrive early."

Huo Zhongli blinked: "Really?"

"That's a must! Just think about it, the city needs to be rebuilt, and reconstruction requires people. Although there are many guards, they all have other work to do. Then the people who rebuild the city must be the residents who come here for refuge.

If you go early, you will have a job, and if you have a job, you will have food. If you do nothing, you will just starve to death. "The guards will not support idlers.

Huo Zhongli nodded. He could infer something from the previous practices of the alliance and the guard.

Although he was unwilling, he didn't dare to waste any more time.

Others were also convinced by Li Sikai's perfect reason. They looked forward to their future life and hoped to regain a better life with their own hands.

"Go to bed early. We'll leave tomorrow. See you again in the future."

"Okay, thanks a lot, brother!"

Being rejected, the male compatriots at the scene didn't have any thoughts. If you have different paths, you can't work together. In this case, don't force it.

But the girls looked at each other and wanted to fight for it again.

"Big brother, can you take me with you? I promise I won't hold you back." Wen Bingxue walked over and said softly.
