Natural disasters descended abruptly, and the world underwent massive changes. First came extreme heat, then extreme cold, followed by earthquakes, heavy fog, eternal night, and acid rain, all arri...
While Su Nian and Jing Mo were busy, Shen Biao sat aside.
The person was sitting there, but his eyes were empty and his thoughts had long since wandered off into the sky.
It wasn't until Jing Mo said everything was done that Shen Biao came back to his senses and his eyes fell on Su Nian and Jing Mo.
Looking at Su Nian and Jing Mo, Shen Biao smiled, "Like you two, opening a small shop, you don't make much money, but it's good to be able to make a living and not be tired."
Although his tone was pretending to be relaxed, one could still vaguely hear envy in it.
Jing Mo packed the pancakes and rice balls separately and handed them to Chen Biao, "There are so many ways to live in this world. No matter how you live, as long as you live well the way you like, it's fine."
Shen Biao gave Su Nian his ID card and asked Su Nian to swipe it before taking the things Jing Mo handed over.
"You're right, I envy you guys for living a stable life, but I don't want to live like this.
This guy is running around all day long. It's okay for him to take a break occasionally, but if I were asked to stay in the base all the time, I wouldn't be able to do it."
After Su Nian swiped the ID card, she handed it back to Shen Biao, "Are you leaving the base tomorrow?"
Shen Biao shook his head, “No, I’ll be gone in a moment.”
Hearing this, Su Nian subconsciously looked outside.
It was already dark by this time and the thick fog made it impossible to see anything.
Seeing Su Nian's actions, Shen Biao laughed, "Anyway, the fog is thick, if you want to see the road clearly, you have to turn on the lights. What's the difference between setting off during the day and at night?
That is to say, in the base, everyone still likes to be active during the day and rest at night.
In fact, as long as you leave the base and go to the city, you will find that there is no difference between day and night outside."
Hearing Shen Biao's words, Su Nian subconsciously thought of the thick fog in his previous life.
At that time, there was indeed no distinction between day and night.
Without strong lights, everyone walking in the thick fog couldn't see anything.
They could see nothing, day or night.
In the previous life, starting from the thick fog, for everyone in the place where Su Nian lived, it had entered into complete darkness, and there was no more daytime.
Su Nian looked at Shen Biao with complicated eyes. She was not sure whether Shen Biao meant the same thing.
Su Nian didn't plan to ask, and Shen Biao didn't give Su Nian a chance to ask.
After installing the ID card, Shen Biao laughed happily, "After staying in the base for so many days with good food and drink, it's time to go out for a walk, otherwise my body will be stiff.
When I come back, I'll come to your place for dinner.
Who knows, if you're lucky, you might get some good ingredients. I'll pay you for the processing and you can help cook them."
Jing Mo laughed when he heard that, "Okay."
"Leave."
After leaving these two words, Shen Biao walked out with big strides.
After a while, Shen Biao's figure was completely swallowed by the darkness.
It was not until this time that Su Nian withdrew his gaze.
Looking at the messy operating table, Su Nian chuckled, "Don't look at it anymore. Clean up quickly. It's time to go back, or Sister Feng will be worried."
Usually they would go back at around 1:00 p.m., but today they hadn't returned until dark. Feng Xiuli must be worried.
That is to say, there are no telephones now, and they have no access to the base's network, otherwise they would have started a series of life-threatening calls long ago.
As soon as Su Nian finished speaking, she heard Feng Xiuli's voice.
"Big sister, you're just remembering me now. I'll be anxious!"
For a moment, Su Nian thought he was hallucinating.
But when he looked towards the door and saw Feng Xiuli standing there, he was sure that he was not hallucinating, but Feng Xiuli really came.
"Sister Feng, why are you here?"
Feng Xiuli strode in and started to help clean up, "It's just like what you said, I saw that you haven't returned yet, and I'm worried about you.
I came here once in the afternoon, but seeing you were busy, I didn't come to disturb you.
Seeing that it was getting dark and you hadn't returned yet, I was a little worried, so I came again."
Feng Xiuli came twice in one afternoon.
Su Nian just felt warm in her heart, "Sister Feng, did you come here by bicycle? Put the bicycle in the car later."
"good."
In order to facilitate traveling around the base, Feng Xiuli bought a bicycle.
It was a very old bicycle, and no one knew how many years it had been there. The entire body of the bicycle was covered with traces of time, and there were several holes in the seat.
Before the end of the world, a bicycle like this would not be sold for more than a few dozen dollars if sold second-hand.
But now, it is a means of transportation that many people want to buy but are reluctant to buy.
The price of oil was too expensive, and Feng Xiuli was reluctant to drive every time she went out. Walking was too slow, so she gritted her teeth and spent a few contribution points to buy a bicycle.
There are bicycles in Su Nian's space, but they are all brand new and there is no way to use them now.
I can only wait for a few days, and then take it out openly when I close the stall. Then I can tell Feng Xiuli that I bought it by chance.
There are brand new bicycles for sale at the base, but they are a bit more expensive.
With three people cleaning up together, the process was pretty fast.
Soon the three of them packed up their things, loaded everything they needed to take back into the car, locked the door, and drove back to Hope Yard.
Back in the courtyard, Feng Xiuli took the bicycle off the roof and said, "You've been busy all day, hurry up and pack up, wash up and go to bed! Take it easy in the future and don't be so tired. How much can you two spend? There's no need to work so hard to earn contribution points."
Su Nian smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Sister Feng, don't you know what our personalities are like?
Today I am helping a regular customer prepare some dry food. He is going to scavenge in the city."
When Feng Xiuli heard this, her expression became a little disappointed.
"Five or six days have passed in the blink of an eye. I don't know how Dacheng and the others are doing now, or when they can come back."
Not to mention Feng Xiuli's worry, even Su Nian and Jing Mo were a little worried when they occasionally thought about it.
Wang Dacheng's personality is sometimes quite honest.
Su Nian was worried that he would be soft-hearted and be deceived.
But thinking about the previous confrontation between Wang Dacheng and his men and the survivors of the second base, this worry was reduced a lot.
Wang Dacheng is honest and kind-hearted, but it depends on the person.
He is not a saint!
"Sister Feng, don't worry too much. Brother Wang and the others will probably be back in a day or two."
Feng Xiuli nodded and forced a smile, "Yes, I should be back in two days. You guys should go to bed early, I'm going back too!"
After seeing Feng Xiuli off, Su Nian and Jing Mo didn't rush to eat. They first washed the dishes they brought back.
