However, the feeling of depression was still hard to dissipate. Yu Baowen couldn't help but glance at his friend and thought, look at his mental quality! He couldn't find a stable source of drinking water, but he remained calm and composed, and was obviously very confident in his own strength.

However, what she didn't know was that Su Han's confidence came entirely from the sufficient supply reserves... If there were only three days of rations, she would definitely be more anxious than anyone else! She would want to do everything she could to fill the warehouse!

Su Han didn't know what her temporary teammates were thinking. She looked around and suddenly felt something: "After living in the city for a long time, people often don't realize how dependent they are on infrastructure. They subconsciously think that many things in life exist for granted and cannot disappear."

"Only when disaster strikes will they realize that nothing is taken for granted."

"Government services actually provide considerable convenience. Without them, people's lives would be very inconvenient."

“People will only realize their mistakes after a disaster occurs and they suffer. If you give warnings in advance, you may be laughed at for worrying about nothing,” Yu Baowen said seriously.

Su Han turned his head and found that his friend seemed to be a man with a story.

Yu Baowen shrugged and said indifferently, "I have always been aware of potential dangers, and I always have a go-bag ready at home, but I have been laughed at by people around me more than once. I don't understand why, they just don't understand the principle of taking precautions in advance."

Go-bag, a tactical backpack, is filled with various supplies needed for escape. Once an emergency occurs, you can just put on the backpack and run away.

Su Han thought to herself that there are still many survivalists in the world, such as her and Yu Baowen.

"If a disaster strikes unexpectedly, those who laughed at you will look stupid. If you live peacefully for decades and nothing happens, others will think your behavior is stupid." Su Han sighed, "Most people in this world are always used to being result-oriented. If the result is good, everything is good. But we make so many preparations just to avoid being at a loss when an accident happens."

"That's right!" Yu Baowen felt like he had found a soulmate, and immediately said indignantly, "It's like buying insurance to prevent accidents. Does buying insurance mean you're hoping something bad will happen to you? Of course not! The real purpose is to prevent yourself from having no solution when something bad happens!"

After all, accidents cannot be controlled by human will.

After she said this, Yu Baowen realized that she was too emotional. She calmed down, tried to maintain a calm tone, and explained, "There are too many people like this around me, and it's hard to explain to them. It's rare to meet someone who understands, and I feel a little excited."

"I understand." Su Han smiled, and then reminded, "Take a rest, and we'll go out to find a lake together later."

"Okay." Yu Baowen agreed readily.

**

After eating and drinking and having a good rest, the two walked out of the room and began to look for the location of the lake.

It was not easy to find the exact place you wanted to go in such a large instance without a map. Therefore, in order to avoid getting lost, the two of them marked the way as they walked.

Unexpectedly, after walking two streets, a young man came up to me cheerfully and asked, "What do you two need?"

Su Han looked the visitor up and down and asked expressionlessly, "What do you have?"

The young man puffed out his chest and said proudly, "News, food, drinking water, fuel, daily necessities, there is nothing I can't get you, except what you can't think of!"

Yu Baowen and Su Han looked at each other - if someone could point out the location of the lake directly, there would be no need to search for it anymore.

Yu Baowen was about to reach into his pocket but was stopped.

Su Han took out a lighter with the least fuel from his personal storage and said nonchalantly, "I choose the news. Where is the lake or river? The reward is this lighter in your hand."

The young man's eyes lit up surprisingly. He suppressed his ecstasy and said confidently, "You finally asked the right person! I know this place very well!"

Then he pointed casually, "The nearest lake is in that direction. Just walk for ten minutes and you'll see it."

"Thanks." Su Han threw the lighter over.

"Welcome next time." The young man took it swiftly, smiling from ear to ear.

The two continued to move forward.

Yu Baowen deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "Why did you stop me from paying the bill?"

Su Han said casually, "In this instance, lighters and bleach are more valuable than we thought. The lighter in your hand is brand new and too eye-catching. The one I just threw over only has 1/3 of the fuel left, so it's not likely to cause trouble."

"Okay." Since it was for safety reasons, Yu Baowen had no reason not to agree.

After walking for a while, she realized something was wrong. "When I met the water carrier, he didn't come from this direction."

"For safety's sake, they deliberately went around in circles, right?" Su Han said casually, "That guy just now couldn't have cheated us for a lighter with 1/3 of the fuel, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, five young men appeared in front of him and blocked his way.

Looking back, I saw that the road I came from was blocked by three young men. The one leading them was the young man who had just been asked for directions.

Yu Baowen, "..."

Su Han, "..."

I never thought that there are such poor people in the world! Even if I take out a second-hand lighter, I will be targeted!

The young man grinned, his expression grim, "My main job is to be a middleman, and my secondary job is to be a robber. If you know what's good for you, hand over the things in your backpack, and I can spare your life."

Su Han said quickly and hastily, "We'll run separately later!"

As she spoke, she took out a second-hand lighter without hesitation and threw it into the bushes in the distance.

"Lighter!" someone screamed. The look of grief and anguish was as if a jade disk had been thrown to the ground and was about to be smashed to pieces.

"Let's go." Su Han growled.

Then, the two of them broke through to where the three people were. At the same time, Su Han threw a second-hand lighter into the bushes. Yu Baowen threw a lighter into the bushes on the other side.

"Stop him quickly! He's a fat sheep!" the young man yelled.

But his companions ignored him and ran away, starting looking for the lighter that had fallen on the ground.

Su Han broke out to the left, and Yu Baowen broke out to the right. The young man wanted to stop both of them, but they were like loaches, running very fast. In the end, he couldn't stop either of them.

Looking back again, the young man suddenly realized that except for himself, no one cared about the two girls who ran away, and everyone was busy looking for a lighter.

He immediately became furious and cursed, "What a bunch of idiots! Those two are fat sheep! Stop them, are you still worried about not having a lighter?"

Someone muttered in a very low voice, "If we find the lighter, why bother robbing people on the road? It's enough to keep us fed and well fed for several days."

After all, if a thrown lighter is found, it can be hidden away and regarded as personal property, but if the person is tied up, there may not be other good things.

"Waste, waste!" The young man jumped up and down, wishing he could beat up the others. But the people were not united, no one listened to his orders, and he could do nothing about it.

Thinking it was too late to chase him, the young man could only accept it. With a sigh, he also came over to search the bushes.

**

On the other side, Su Han and Yu Baowen ran all the way and only dared to stop after running a long way.

Su Han was breathing heavily, feeling that this was the closest he had ever been to death, and he had finally escaped with great difficulty.

Yu Baowen was panting and speaking incoherently, "I never thought that I would almost be eliminated because of a lighter." As she spoke, her face was full of disbelief, as if her three views had been severely hit.

Su Han tried to calm down, his mood was very mixed, "As for me, I have tried my best to avoid attracting attention. Who knew that these people were so unrefined that they could be so greedy when they saw a second-hand lighter."

If I had to describe it, it was probably because I was robbed of ten dollars and almost lost my life because of it...

"The fifth instance was so brutal." Yu Baowen still had lingering fears. "After entering the game, I was chased by people every day. If I wasn't careful, I could lose my life."

Su Han squatted down to rest, feeling very tired. After a while, she was almost done resting, and then she said quietly, "Let's go back." Her tone was particularly vicissitudes.

Yu Baowen didn't want to stay outside any longer, so he quickened his pace and walked back.

In the evening, after eating hot baked potatoes, Su Han curled up in a corner to rest and think about countermeasures.

Gradually, she lost interest in going out to explore. The feeling of being surrounded by eight people was too painful, and she didn't want to experience it a second time. In addition, it was too frustrating to be eliminated because of an accident even though there were plenty of supplies!

Therefore, she was seriously considering what kind of words she could use to successfully persuade Yu Baowen to give up going out. If the two of them really couldn't reach a consensus, she would have no choice but to give up this temporary companion.

Somehow, Su Han suddenly thought of Zhong Rui. She thought, it would be nice if her teammate was Zhong Rui. Anyway, they were both stockpilers and knew each other well, so they could say whatever they wanted to say. Besides, Zhong Rui's portable warehouse was always fuller than hers, so he could definitely understand her frustration!

He thought of several excuses, but all of them seemed inappropriate and were rejected. Gradually, Su Han closed his eyes and his breathing became long and slow.

There was a hint of anxiety between Yu Baowen's eyebrows, and she couldn't calm down. After taking a few deep breaths, she managed to stabilize her emotions and forced herself to fall asleep - there were still many things to do tomorrow, and she had to stay energetic!

At midnight, the sound of rain could be heard outside the house.

Su Han raised his eyelids and continued to sleep as if nothing had happened.

The next second, Yu Baowen opened her eyes and looked out the window in great surprise. When she was sure it was raining outside, she immediately showed her two little canine teeth and stood up impatiently.

In the house, the wooden furniture had been burned as firewood, but there were still some other daily necessities, such as plastic basins and kettles.

Yu Baowen held his breath, tiptoed to find all the plastic basins, and then excitedly went outside to collect the rain water.

The next morning, Su Han woke up and was stunned when he saw several large basins of water placed in the room. "What is this?"

"I collected rainwater. It rained last night and it just stopped this morning." Yu Baowen replied happily.

Su Han was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "Are you going to drink it directly?"

Yu Baowen didn't care, "Rain water is always much cleaner than muddy water."

She read a biography in which a war survivor said: "To get through the hard times, sometimes it is inevitable to drink some green and brown water."

In comparison, the current situation is already very good.

Su Han was completely speechless.

Yu Baowen's behavior was not wrong. Sometimes, in order to survive, you have to grit your teeth and hold on no matter how hard it is. On the other hand, this girl is very tenacious, able to endure hardships and ruthless.

but……

Su Han thought with a dull face, if there was enough clean drinking water, there was no need for her to do this! There were actually quite a few microorganisms in rainwater, and it needed to be disinfected before it could be safely drunk.

If you cannot drink all the drinking water immediately, you must put it in a sealed container. If it is exposed to air for a long time, it will easily become smelly and turn green.

But the two of them were not close enough to each other to open up and talk freely. For a moment, Su Han was tangled.

The author has something to say: Yu Baowen: Some people struggle to survive, while others can pay attention to the quality of life (not happy)

Su Han: I suddenly miss you so much
