The old man raised his hand and pushed the small granules of Bupleurum chinense back into Hua Mi's hand.

"No need for change. Actually, we should give you more money, but we're old and don't carry much cash with us."

They have all their cash in the bank, but now there's no cell phone signal and no internet, so the elderly couple can't withdraw their life savings.

That's why I felt so ashamed and only gave Hua Mi 20 yuan.

The old woman next to the old man reached out and grasped Hua Mi's wrist, lowering her voice to say...

"Hurry up, good boy, hurry up and go."

She was just a young girl, completely unaware of the wickedness of human nature. Look at all those menacing people around her; everyone was hungry and couldn't get past the obstacles ahead.

At this moment, a young woman selling supplies appeared, and the consequences were predictable.

But it was too late for Hua Mi to leave at this point; she was surrounded by people.

People who were originally waiting in line to go over the obstacle course gathered around.

Even though Hua Mi only brought out a few oranges, everyone wanted to try their luck; maybe they could buy an orange too?

Someone took out a hundred-yuan bill and asked in a low voice,

"Do you have any other supplies to sell? I have money, and I don't need you to give me change."

One person asked a question, and a large group of people gathered around, all asking the same question at once.

"I have cash here, can you sell me some supplies?"

"I have electricity, my phone has power. As long as you can give me a signal, I can transfer money to you."

"I"

Surrounded by the crowd, Hua Mi calmly said...

"No rush, those of you with cash can line up first. I also have self-heating hot pots here."

As she spoke, she pulled a self-heating hot pot (dark wasabi flavor) from her raincoat, and held a bottle of mineral water in her other hand.

"We have this, with bottled water, both together for 69.9, I'll sell it to you if you pay."

"I have a hundred dollars, here you go, here you go!!!"

The man who squeezed to the front stuffed a hundred-yuan bill into Hua Mi's hand, almost snatching her self-heating hot pot and bottled water.

He didn't even mention giving change; he just grabbed the self-heating hot pot and bottled water and ran off.

A group of people shouted, "Me too! Me too!"

"Give me some, give me some."

These people, like a large flock of sparrows, gathered around Hua Mi.

Hua Mi didn't hesitate either, constantly taking out self-heating hot pot (dark wasabi flavor) and mineral water from her raincoat.

Thanks to her raincoat, which looked particularly large, the sky was dark enough, the surrounding environment was chaotic enough, and people were panicked enough.

So no one found it strange that Hua Mi kept taking out supplies.

Just as emotions were starting to spiral out of control, the commotion finally caught the attention of the group that had set up the obstacles.

A group of men rushed out from behind the barriers, wielding sticks, and began beating the survivors who had gathered around Hua Mi.

They attacked mercilessly, showing no mercy whatsoever.

For a time, the area outside the barrier was in complete chaos, filled with all sorts of wailing and howling.

This is exactly the effect Hua Mi wanted.

One of the survivors finally couldn't hold back any longer and shouted angrily.

"Who are you people? Why are you setting up roadblocks here? We just want to go to Xiangcheng and B City to buy some supplies!"

"Life is already so hard, and you still want to exploit us? Who gave you that right?"

Many people have questioned this issue, but because no one took the lead, no one was willing to be the first to stand up and rebel.

But now there are people selling supplies outside the barriers, and you can buy them with cash, without having to go to Xiangcheng or Bcheng.

The survivors saw hope.

What people fear most is having hope. Once hope is there, and then it is shattered, when despair overwhelms them, their humanity is prone to collapse!

The group that set up the obstacles beat the survivors with punches, kicks, and sticks, finally igniting their anger.

It's hard to say who started the counterattack, but all the women, children, and elderly people who were not physically capable huddled by the roadside.

Try to stay in a safe area as much as possible.

Along the entire road, people were fighting each other; anyone carrying a stick was beaten.

"Who gave you permission to set up these obstacles? What right do you have to set up obstacles on this highway?"

“The garrison commander of Xiangcheng did not say anything about blocking the road. Those of you who block the road will be shot.”

Hua Mi shouted, urging the survivors to fight back, and she took advantage of the chaos to enter the obstacle.

There were still a few men inside the barrier, who were preparing to go out and control the situation outside when they saw a woman crawl in!

My aunt's husband was tied to the roof of the car and was shouting loudly.

"Miss Hua, run! Don't worry about us, it's them!"

Before she could finish speaking, Hua Mi had already pulled out her steel bar and, in a few swift moves, knocked out all the people who had set up the obstacles.

She deliberately controlled her strength, not aiming for the man's head, but only subduing him before grabbing him by the collar and throwing him over the obstacle.

"Go now, go and receive the wrath of the survivors!"

In no time, Hua Mi had dealt with all the men who came to attack her from within the obstacle.

She climbed onto the roof of the vehicle, untied her team of clearing crew members, and counted them.

"Where is Grandpa Ten?"

"Here, here!"

Seventh Uncle ran to a corner and carried Tenth Grandpa, who had been beaten half to death, out on his back.

At first, their clearing team was the first to resist the group that set up roadblocks, but because they were all elderly people in their fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties, they were no match for those strong and powerful young people.
