Chapter 85 is just copied.

The old woman was immediately displeased upon hearing this. Just as she was about to speak, the middle-aged man beside her quickly pulled her back, nodding repeatedly, "Okay, okay, we'll take care of the food ourselves, it's just..."

He licked his slightly chapped lips: "We're out of water. Could you give us some?"

If it hadn't rained a little while ago, they would have been unable to hold on long ago due to lack of water.

"Yes, but you will need to pay for certain supplies."

The man thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

The old woman was a little angry, but they had been trapped here for a long time, and if these people didn't take them away, they would die sooner or later.

Just then, she caught a glimpse of a monster writhing with contorted joints out of the corner of her eye, and was immediately startled: "A zombie! It's a zombie!"

"Shut up!"

Su Yimo shouted impatiently, then looked at the middle-aged man: "Keep an eye on your mother. If she screams every time she sees a zombie, don't blame us for throwing you off the bus. You can die if you want, but don't drag us down with you."

After he finished speaking, Pei Yi quickly dealt with the zombie.

The family of four was terrified when they saw the fire that had appeared out of thin air in Pei Yi's hand.

What's this?

Superpowers?

Pei Yi's special ability silenced the family of four.

Even though the little boy kept swallowing as he looked at the snacks in Ling Ran's hand, the old lady didn't say anything. She just held her grandson in her arms and wouldn't let him see them.

However, with four more people, we need to find another car.

Ling Ran does have some, but she wouldn't give them to strangers.

Finding a car was easy; they were everywhere on the streets. Pei Yi quickly found one, but it was out of power. He used his own car to jump-start the other vehicle, and it started up quickly.

"Can you drive?" Pei Yi asked the middle-aged man.

Yes, it will.

"Okay." Pei Yi got out of the driver's seat: "Then you guys drive yourselves and follow us, don't get lost."

The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly.

Next, Ling Ran and the others searched the street again. Apart from some furniture stores, toy stores, and appliance stores that had most of the basic items, they only found some odds and ends in other stores.

Shen Nian Shen didn't take these things, but Ling Ran did, storing all the things that others didn't want into her space.

After searching the streets, the four vehicles left the village.

Pei Yi and the others decided to go back.

Staying out for extended periods is exhausting, both mentally and emotionally. Returning home after completing a task, regrouping, and then venturing out again is a responsible approach to oneself.

On the way back, they stayed overnight in Ning City and unexpectedly found a delivery station in a residential area. There were still many packages waiting for their owners to pick them up. Since there was no danger, the group divided the supplies into three parts.

Pei Yi got one, Ling Ran got one, and Yu Jie got one.

As for the family of four survivors, there were none.

After sorting the packages, they returned the way they came. Since they had cleared out most of the zombies on their way there, they had a smooth journey and encountered nothing.

They successfully returned to the base in the southern province, only to find that the base gate was completely different.

The base has been expanded further out from the main gate. Now, survivors who come to seek refuge can no longer enter after a simple check. Instead, they must be quarantined in the isolation area for 24 hours before they can enter.

Moreover, entry is not free; if you have supplies, you need to hand over half of them.

Looking at the survivors queuing outside, Ling Ran raised an eyebrow. Why has Jiang Huaizhi been making so many moves these past few days?

Ling Ran had no idea that Jiang Huai's rules and regulations were basically copied from others.

Do you not know how to manage it?

What's there to be afraid of? Others have already finished their homework, so just copy it.
