Chapter 78

Supplies!

I don't know what those things are, but Ji Yang has already arranged their "uses" in his mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, she will be able to return with a maximum level of sea area!

Ji Yang agreed, which obviously made Cen Qiu very happy. He was afraid that if he was a step slower, his companions would really die, so he quickly told Cen Qiu the address where they were being held. The group of people wanted to lure Ji Yang out, so as to kill her and get the RV.

But what Ji Yang wanted was jadeite, so after dark, they were assigned by that group of people to move the jadeite.

From this, Cen Qiu knew that they were hiding in an air-raid shelter.

There were a lot of supplies in the air-raid shelter, but Cen Qiu and his team only touched a small part of it. This side mainly contained various top-quality jades. The entrance to the cave was a bit difficult to find, at the foot of a mountain.

The only problem is that there must be someone guarding the air-raid shelter. If you want to get the supplies, you must get rid of the people in the air-raid shelter first.

This might be a little difficult for others, as the other party must have a lot of weapons, but Ji Yang was still somewhat confident. Therefore, after reapplying medicine to Cen Qiu, Ji Yang asked her to show him the way and drove to rescue the people she mentioned.

Cen Qiu and his group were originally an alliance of survivors, and now there are less than fifty people left. Some of them stayed in the garrison, and some came out to trade with Ji Yang.

When they returned after the transaction yesterday, they were held at gunpoint by a group of people. The group killed five people who were unwilling to participate as a warning to others, and some of the remaining people were injured, while others compromised.

The people who compromised went to move the jade, and Cen Qiu was among them.

As expected, the remaining people will stay here.

They were controlled when they were about to reach home. Instead of returning home, they temporarily took shelter from the heat in an underground garage in a nearby community. They only had the supplies they had exchanged from Ji Yang. They would not die from dehydration or the like, but the same could not be said for the injured.

Therefore Cen Qiu was very anxious.

Ji Yang also drove faster and arrived at the community smoothly.

The neighborhood was deserted, and there was no sign that anyone had been there for a long time. She parked the car in front of the entrance of Building 3.

Cen Qiu was still a little afraid of this group of people. Although he knew that most of them were dead, the remaining people had weapons in their hands. He was so nervous that he didn't even feel the pain of his wounds. He whispered, "I don't know if they still have anyone guarding here. You have to be careful..."

"I have a way." Ji Yang suddenly smiled.

Cen Qiu was puzzled and felt that her smile was a bit strange. Then he saw Ji Yang stop the car and go to the carriage. He had a loudspeaker in his hand, opened the window, pointed the loudspeaker at the door, and shouted directly: "Everyone in the building, you have been surrounded! Come out and surrender!"

Cen Qiu:?

Her eyes widened in horror: "Is this even possible?!"

Ji Yang shrugged: "If there is no one, your companions who can still walk will definitely come out. If there are people, there will definitely not be many people left, and they may even be killed directly."

Of course, if they still refuse to come out, she can do something, but some things can still be saved.

Then she shouted twice more: "If you don't come out in three minutes, we will take action!"

Dozens of seconds later, someone timidly popped up and shouted, "We are good people! Don't shoot!"

Cen Qiu's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "It's my companion! Uncle Zhang!!!"

Ji Yang kept his gun ready and used the loudspeaker: "Everyone come out! Put your hands up!"

The man called Uncle Zhang felt relieved when he heard Cen Qiu's voice. He hurriedly said to the person behind him, "Come here quickly! It's the girl who wants to exchange jade with us!"

Then a series of people came out.

The injured were carried and supported, one after another, until they arrived at the door of the apartment building. They obediently raised their hands as Ji Yang requested and did not dare to resist at all.

Cen Qiu looked at them, feeling both happy and sad. He was happy that most of them were still alive, but sad that so many of them died. There were originally 28 people in the transaction, but now there are only 12 left!

This is including hers.

Ji Yang also remembered how many people there were, and frowned when he saw this: "Are there only this many people?"

She remembered that Cen Qiu said that several people were killed, and there should be nearly twenty people.

Shen He, whose thigh was injured, said hurriedly, "Seven of us were killed by that group of people. Six escaped last night. Three of us died of excessive blood loss after being injured. We are the only ones left. After Xiao Qiu escaped last night, they were afraid of being exposed, so they drove away immediately. No one was left behind."

I guess because they saw that there were only a bunch of old, weak and sick people left, they didn't care and didn't even take the supplies.

Seeing their sincerity, Ji Yang glanced at Cen Qiu and said, "It's your turn."

Cen Qiu nodded quickly, took the medicine box beside him and got out of the car.

The sun was very strong, and she felt sore all over as soon as she went out. She quickly ran two steps and breathed a sigh of relief when she entered the shadow of the building: "Uncle Zhang, Brother Chen, is there anyone else in here?!"

"No, after you ran away yesterday, they were furious and left one by one. They didn't care about us at all." Uncle Zhang explained hurriedly and looked at the RV again: "What's going on?"

Chen He said: "We all thought you were dead, but you are lucky, little girl."

Cen Qiu grinned and opened the medicine box: "I went to inform someone and met a noble person. That sister saved me and killed all the bad guys. I begged her to come and save you. Hurry, apply medicine, pull out the bullet and the wound will heal!"

When everyone heard this, they relaxed. The injured showed a look of surprise, and their fear turned into a feeling of survival: "I, I thought I was dead!"

"Quick, apply the medicine first!"

"I'll take care of the wound!"

"Clean the wound first, otherwise it will easily get infected. Where's the alcohol..."

After so long, they have all learned how to treat wounds. The medicine box contains alcohol, iodine, gauze, and scalpels. They divided the work and cooperated with each other, and soon the wounds of the most seriously injured people were treated.

The alcohol was running low. Cen Qiu just shook the empty bottle when she heard a noise coming from the car. She subconsciously looked over and saw Ji Yang open the window and shouted, "Continue."

Then an unopened bottle of medical alcohol was thrown over.

Cen Qiu's eyes became hot, he wiped them quickly and continued to work.

——

Those who were seriously injured had actually died after this night.

The rest were slightly injured, with no fatal injuries, so it was relatively easy to treat the wounds. In just an hour, Cen Qiu returned to the car, still holding the medicine box in his hands like a treasure, and it took him a while to put it down.

Ji Yang took a look and said nothing. He turned the car around and headed towards the air-raid shelter as she said.

The distance was not far. The traces of the vehicles of the group that attacked Ji Yang at night were still on the road. Once on the main road, one could basically see the traces of their vehicles. Following the tire marks, they went around several forest paths until Cen Qiu pointed to a faint black spot and said, "That's over there. That's the entrance to the cave!"

Ji Yang followed her direction and noticed it.

But the distance was not close enough to see the specific situation over there, so I took out a small telescope. The distance was not far, but it was enough for here.

With a telescope, you can clearly see the entrance of the air-raid shelter.

She had been to a similar air-raid shelter in her previous life. When it was extremely hot, the air-raid shelter was a great place to rest during the day, but not everyone could find an air-raid shelter. She remembered that in her previous life there was a private base that lived in an air-raid shelter.

However, through the telescope, this air-raid shelter was very similar to what I remembered, and there was no one guarding the entrance.

Ji Yang didn't dare to go over rashly. He didn't know how many people were left behind here, and they must have a lot of weapons. It was equivalent to challenging the enemy's lair alone, and it would not be easy to deal with.

She thought about it and turned the car around quickly.

Cen Qiu was dumbfounded: "Sister, what are you doing? Don't you want that batch of supplies?"

She felt a little guilty. If Ji Yang didn't want it, she would not be able to pay back the huge amount of medicine she had used. She felt relieved only when Ji Yang got the supplies.

Ji Yang shook his head: "I'll send you back first."

It's inconvenient to have other people around, getting in the way.

Cen Qiu was even more moved when she heard this. She said that this sister was a good person. Not only was she generous in exchanging supplies for them, but she was also thinking about her safety at this time. She was right to stop the group of greedy companions from bargaining with Ji Yang, and it was right for her to come over and inform Ji Yang this time.

When she first reported the news, she just watched her companions die or get injured. Even if that group of people did not take action at this time, they would die from wound infections and other conditions within two days.

If they were allowed to continue with this plan, the kind sister would die, but the bad guys would not be punished and would be able to leave with the RV and supplies.

She was unwilling to give up, and she happened to have a gun in her hand, which had not been discovered by anyone, so she thought of fighting to the death.

But he didn't want to fight for a way out for himself and his injured companions!

Ji Yang had no idea about the disgusting thoughts in Cen Qiu's mind. She simply felt that Cen Qiu's presence was a bit annoying. After sending him back to the community, it was almost noon. Before she got off the car, Ji Yang asked her to wait.

Cen Qiu didn't understand.

Ji Yang took out various alcohols, iodine and other common medicines from the cabinet, put some in, and filled up the medicine box that Cen Qiu was reluctant to let go of just now, and then handed it to her: "These are for you."

Cen Qiu:!

She hugged him flatteredly: "Really give it to me? So much?"

Ji Yang nodded: "Go down, I'm leaving."

Upon hearing this, Cen Qiu did not dare to delay and got out of the car quickly. However, when she entered the hot air, she felt a little reluctant to leave.

When she turned around, the car door was closed, and the car, which had not been turned off, started again, quickly drove out of the community and disappeared from her sight.

Cen Qiu: "..."

This sister is a nice person, but a little cold.

The intense heat at noon made her afraid to stay any longer, so she hurried back to the corridor. She felt dizzy from the sun and quickly drank some water. She had been in an air-conditioned place for a long time and could not stand such a temperature at all. The weather was too terrible.

——

Halfway through the journey, Ji Yang stopped the car to have lunch.

Without outsiders around, she quickly put a bucket of ice on the passenger seat. Air conditioning alone was not enough when the front windshield was directly exposed to the sun. Adding ice cubes could not only cool it down but also humidify it.

He slowly came to the air-raid shelter again. This time, Ji Yang got a little closer, but still stopped the car at some distance.

The sun was high in the sky at this time, and the midday sun was a bit too strong for her. Although she could bear it, she didn't want to be so tired, so she simply took a nap. Two hours later, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. After taking Xixi and some important supplies away, Ji Yang got out of the car fully armed.

The car was parked here, so she went there alone.

Otherwise, the noise of driving might alert the snake.

But when she arrived at the entrance of the air-raid shelter, Ji Yang hesitated again. Based on Cen Qiu's words alone, she had no way of judging how many people were inside, let alone how many weapons there were. She had space, but it would be very dangerous if she was exposed, unless she was sure that the enemy was dead.

But she needed jade for the air-raid shelter.

Ji Yang thought about it, put on a gas mask, and then approached carefully. She didn't hear any movement inside for the time being, so she went in. The air-raid shelter was very large. She had only walked ten meters deep when she could feel the obvious coolness that made her body feel much more comfortable.

She tried to move as quietly as possible, and although the progress was slow, she didn't make any noise and everything went smoothly.

She heard snoring more than 20 meters after the air-raid shelter entrance.

The air-raid shelters in each place are different, some are similar to tunnels, some are shelters, and there will be a spacious open space in the middle. Because it is a single passage, even if it is spacious, it will still be very loud if there is any movement.

Not sure where the other person is, but snoring, it actually works in her favor.

Ji Yang relaxed for a few seconds, then cheered himself up and continued to move forward.

We walked about another twenty meters.

The snoring was getting closer.

Originally Ji Yang was planning to use tear gas, but now it seems that it is not necessary for the time being. She replaced the shotgun in her hand with a tranquilizer gun, carefully identified the other party's position with her ears, and then approached carefully. She saw a man about ten meters ahead, snoring loudly with a pistol in his arms. Listening carefully, she found that there was actually more than one snoring, but the other two were obviously farther away.

I guess there's only one person here.

Ji Yang calmed himself down and took action quickly.

With a "click".

The other party seemed to have not reacted yet. He shuddered and shook all over, and then struggled to open his eyes. However, after he opened his eyes, the anesthesia had already taken effect. His eyes lost focus and he finally lowered his head again.

Ji Yang slowly exhaled a breath, walked over, and cut the man's neck with a knife. Blood spurted out. She quickly stepped back and saw a storage room behind the man.

This should be the place where jade is stored that Cen Qiu mentioned.

Ji Yang only took a quick glance and, as expected, all he saw were various large and good-quality jade stones. They were probably too heavy, so they were placed in the place closest to the exit. Other good things were still inside.

She was not in a hurry to take action to get rid of the others. Everything here was hers. If she couldn't get rid of them, and so many things disappeared out of thin air, it would be hard to say what would happen.

She continued to move toward the source of the sound.

But this time my luck wasn't so good.

As we walked, the snoring did become louder, but at the same time there was also the sound of people playing cards.

From the sound, it seemed that they were playing Landlord, and there were only three people playing, chatting at the same time: "Why does it feel a little quiet?"

"I think it's Xiao Liu who's guarding the gate who's up. Maybe the boss and the others are back."

"Why didn't you hear anything?"

"It should be soon, right? We brought so many guys, and some people were used as bait. I heard there's only one woman, how can we not catch her?"

"I heard that the RV was modified to be awesome. It was worth at least 20 to 30 million before the disaster. I must beg the boss to let me ride in it when the time comes!"

"Right! Maybe I can get some sleep. I haven't enjoyed air conditioning in a long time..."

“…”

There were three different tones of chatter, plus two snoring sounds, a total of five people. Fortunately, the number was better than expected, but they were all gathered together...

This is not something that a tranquilizer gun can solve.

Ji Yang quickly replaced the tranquilizer gun with a shotgun, and had two more guns in his hand. Without thinking too much, he quickly pulled out the safety pin and threw it towards the source of the sound in front of him.

Almost instantly, a thick smoke drifted out.

"ah!"

"Fuck, what is this--"

"It hurts, my eyes hurt..."

They reacted quickly, but the smoke spread even faster. Before they could even make any move, two crisp "gurgling" sounds were heard. Someone noticed it sharply and thought to themselves that something was wrong!

Turn around and want to run.

But then, two huge "bang bang" explosions sounded in succession in this space.

The person who wanted to escape was blown away by the explosion behind him that seemed to be very close before he could even take the second step. His mind went blank and he could no longer feel the pain. He fell into darkness.

After the explosion, Ji Yang appeared with a shotgun. The gun had a wide blind spot range and the thick smoke blocked people's vision. She fired directly at the white fog in front of her.

“Puff, puff, puff—”

The sound of the bullet entering the body was accompanied by screams and exclamations.

The whole process takes no more than a minute.

——

After the last scream, the thick fog had dissipated a lot. The ventilation of the air-raid shelter was very good. By now, most of the smoke had disappeared and we could probably see the situation here clearly.

This is an extremely spacious platform.

The area is about the size of a football field.

There are three or four trucks parked on both sides. The piles of supplies on the trucks are astonishing. There are all kinds of food and daily necessities. A quick look shows that military rations take up half of the space. In addition, there are also a lot of supplies on the ground, which are some commonly eaten canned food, instant noodles, and beverages.

There were far more bodies than Ji Yang had expected, filling up almost one-third of the space. In the middle was the rest area with a thin blanket. There were five bodies, all lying on the ground. One of them had a gun in his hand, pointing it in the other direction.

There were some food remnants around them. After being blown away by the grenade, only a few scraps were left. Ji Yang recognized that they were instant noodles.

There were also fragments of broken cans.

After a quick glance around, Ji Yang took out his pistol and shot at their heads one by one.

According to the information Cen Qiu knew, the total number of people in this group was probably only 20 to 30. She was very scared at the time and did not count them carefully, but judging from the circumstances of these two deaths, she estimated that this was the number.

They are very relaxed here, they must have something to rely on.

If it's not the number of people, then it's the weapons.

However, weapons are a bit dangerous. Most people don't dare to rely on weapons at any time and place, so the weapons should be kept not too far from here.

Ji Yang passed through this area, continued forward, and entered the passage again. The place here was much smaller, almost the same size as the entrance.

After walking about fifty meters, I saw another storage room.

This is indeed where all kinds of weapons are stored.

Ji Yang's eyes lit up slightly. This time he didn't hesitate and took it away. Then he continued to move forward. This time he walked all the way to the exit, but he didn't see the storage room. This was the second entrance, but it was mostly blocked, with a hole at the top for ventilation.

Ji Yang stepped out and returned to the spacious area in the middle, and found that there was a fork in the road where the car was blocking the way.

She entered again.

This time, about thirty or forty meters away, there was a storage room filled with various gasoline and diesel.

Ji Yang's eyebrows jumped and he quickly put it away.

Just leave it there casually, no need to worry about it exploding!

After collecting all these, Ji Yang continued to move forward. Very good, the entrance to the cave was also mostly blocked, leaving only a vent. She returned to the place where the jade was placed. This time she did not hesitate and collected them all.

There are a lot of jades, occupying most of the storage room. A storage room here is about the size of a 15-square-meter room, and these jades are all carefully selected by those people.

After all, there is no need to transport the cheaper goods here and hide them.

Therefore, as soon as he took it in, Ji Yang immediately felt that the sea area had expanded a lot!

This size felt about the same as a pond, but she still measured it and found that it was still a little short. So many jade stones increased the area by 2,100 square meters at once. Currently, the total sea area is 9,400 square meters.

There are still 600 square meters left to reach the full level.

Ji Yang was a little disappointed, but it was already good enough. After all, jade was not their main supply. What was really important was the supplies in the car and the weapons, gasoline and diesel in the two storage rooms.

But the rest of these things...

Ji Yang's mind moved slightly, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the space suddenly appeared in front of him, filling the space directly!

"Gurgle..." A pile of round sweet potatoes rolled down from the "top of the hill" and hit her feet.

Ji Yang silently took two steps back and found that the space had exploded a little. He took away a small part of it and went into the area that had exploded before. In the place blocked by the truck, he did the same thing again and released all the remaining things in the space.

Looking at the hill in front of her, she felt a sense of accomplishment, because she grew this hill!

Although I didn't take care of it myself, I harvested and sowed again and again, and finally accumulated a lot of grain. A small part of it was taken out during the move, and almost the rest is all here.

About eight tons of food.

Adding them together, it is almost all that she has grown in this space over such a long time. I say almost because she left some as seeds.

The food area that was originally full to the point of bursting is now suddenly mostly empty. This is a bit unfriendly to the hoarder, but it doesn’t matter, the space is at hand, and it will be full again in time!

Then he took a look at the place where they stored domestic water. There were several water towers. Ji Yang filled them up and then left the air-raid shelter.

When we reached the cave entrance, we fired a flare into the sky. The red flare exploded in the sky and then fell to the ground, with thick red smoke floating in the air.

This was given to her by Xie Muchi. It's an official enhanced version of the flare, and it can also directly contact part of the official signal. Although the official has now left Yun City, the subsequent cleanup of Yun City is handed over to the taskers of each base. In this case, the people in each base actually don't know each other, and someone is needed to control the situation, so a small team will always be left to protect these taskers.

Otherwise, if most of them died here, it would be a real loss.

These people will definitely be able to see the flare, but I don’t know if they will come over.

Ji Yang hadn't expected that flares would be used for this. She went out alone, and in Xie Muchi's opinion, it was naturally dangerous to carry so many good things with her. But there was one good thing, the gangs in Yun City had been reorganized, and the official army was nearby. If anything happened, the flares could allow the official to come to support as soon as possible.

So he gave her two.

After confirming that the first one she fired was normal and that thick smoke was already floating in the sky, she put on the hood of her thermal suit and quickly walked towards the RV. She got on the RV, quickly turned on the air conditioner, put out several ice buckets, and slipped into the space herself.

After her body recovered, she came out again and adjusted the car body so that the window was facing the air-raid shelter not far away. She took out a telescope and stared at it to prevent anyone else from sneaking in. The sniper rifle was ready, so she would give a warning if anyone came.

The reason she was waiting was that she was not sure whether the officials would show up.

If they didn't show up, she would have collected them all at night, so that they wouldn't be left here to give other bad guys who might sneak over an opportunity. This place is a bit far, and ordinary survivors who rely on their own two legs usually can't walk here in such a hot day.

This wait lasted almost two hours.

I thought it would continue, but Xixi, who was having dinner with Ji Yang, noticed the movement first and immediately became alert. It was not completely dark yet, and Ji Yang looked through the telescope and saw a convoy looming under the cover of the trees.

After about ten minutes, the car was obviously getting closer and the noise was getting louder.

The familiar modified car model above has the following words written on the carriage in red letters: [Changnan Base——]

The car stopped near the flare, and after a while, it drove forward again. When it arrived at the entrance of the air-raid shelter, a group of people got out of the car and carefully went in to check.

After a while, I don’t know if it was Ji Yang’s illusion or if the sound really came.

She heard loud cheers from the other side.

Including the leader who was serious when he got off the car, his mouth was now cracked behind his ears. Then the other team members quickly got off the car and rushed into the air-raid shelter, and there was another round of intense cheers.

It’s like winning the jackpot before a natural disaster!

So beautiful!
