In her previous life, Qiao Yu thought Jiang Zhan was mentally unstable; she feared and loathed him. Yet, Jiang Zhan endured endless torture to save her, protecting her until his very last breath.
Chapter 118: Cellar Sweeping
When Qiao Yu and his companions returned, the Lin family and Fang Lin were waiting for them at the door.
"Boss Qiao, are you guys okay?" Lin Yingjie came forward immediately after seeing Qiao Yu and the others.
The fire was so big just now that even with Qiao Yu's previous instructions, they were still worried.
Qiao Yu shook his head. "It's okay. Don't worry, everyone, go back and rest. There's no danger anymore."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
The dose of anesthetic that Cheng Sinian and Yu Qingchuan gave to the survivors was not large.
They were all doctors, and they controlled the dosage of the medicine very well, which not only prevented these people from disrupting their battles, but also saved the amount of medicine to the greatest extent.
So when the sky just started to brighten, those people woke up one after another.
Some sharp-eyed people quickly noticed the charred area at the entrance of the village and also noticed the unusual quietness in the village.
But even so, no one escaped. They even continued to build the house step by step.
——These people who have been enslaved and abused for a long time have long lost the courage to resist.
After Qiao Yu got up and listened to Luo Zhenzhen's explanation of the situation, he didn't show any emotion and just nodded, "I understand. Let's leave it at that for now."
Anyway, they have an important thing to do tomorrow, so it’s not a bad idea for them to maintain the status quo for the time being.
Qiao Yu's prison cell in the northwest corner has not been opened for the time being.
Let's wait a little longer.
Wait until they finish their main performance tomorrow, and then we’ll consider how to deal with these people.
After breakfast, Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan went to find Liu Da first.
After one night, Liu Da was able to speak again.
When he opened the door and saw Jiang Zhan, he immediately kowtowed and knelt respectfully to greet them.
Qiao Yu scratched his eyebrows silently.
Now Jiang Zhan’s image in Liu Da’s mind is probably the same as that of an ancient “tyrant”, right?
Qiao Yu chuckled in his heart, but soon remembered the topic of today and asked Liu Da, "Does Yin Zhixiong have any storage room or treasure house?"
After the expansion of Yushu Space, a lot of space was left empty. Qiao Yu had suffered too much hardship in his previous life, which made him a complete miser and hoarder. He wanted to fill the gaps in space whenever he saw them.
Nanliu Village has the support of Yin Ji and has captured so many survivors. It has developed to such a scale, so there must be a lot of money to be made!
Sure enough, when Liu Dayi heard this, he immediately nodded, climbed up using his hands and feet, and indicated that he could take them there.
Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan followed Liu Da to the house where Yin Zhixiong lived.
Qiao Yu and his team did not clean up the bodies of those people last night, and they had already begun to rot slightly.
After the end of the world, whether it is humans, animals or plants, they will quickly decay after death.
Seeing such a bloody scene during the day is obviously more shocking.
As soon as Liu Dagang entered the door, his steps became unnaturally stiff and his body began to tremble slightly.
But he didn't dare to stop, for fear that Jiang Zhan would be unhappy and turn him into a "human scorpion" as well.
Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan followed Liu Da through the courtyard, twisting and turning until they finally entered a small, unassuming house with solar panels on the roof. Inside the house was a cellar.
Qiao Yu looked down at the steel door under his feet.
There is a large stainless steel lock hanging on it.
"This is Yin Zhixiong's warehouse, but the keys to this lock are kept by Yin Zhixiong himself... I really don't know where they are..." Liu Da spoke tremblingly, as if he was afraid that Qiao Yu would force him to hand over the keys.
Fortunately, Qiao Yu did not embarrass him, but just nodded and said, "I understand. You can go back first."
"Yes, yes!" Liu Da bowed to the two of them, then turned around and ran as if he had been pardoned.
After Liu Da left, Qiao Yu lowered his head and began to study the lock again.
She was too lazy to look for the key and simply placed her hand on the lock. The crystal clear ice quickly wrapped around the lock.
The cold air emanating from Qiao Yu's palm became increasingly cold, causing the temperature in the room to drop lower and lower.
When he felt the steel lock in his palm loosen, Qiao Yu clenched his palm, and the big steel lock was instantly crushed into pieces in his hand.
Jiang Zhan pulled Qiao Yu behind him, away from him, and used the wind blade to push the door handle, opening the door.
The first thing that catches your eye is a long staircase.
The two walked down the stairs. The further down they went, the darker the light became.
But just when the two reached the last step, there was a sudden "click" sound under their feet, and then all the wall lamps in the cellar lit up.
"Wow!" Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows, "That's pretty advanced!"
When Jiang Zhan heard her happy laughter, a soft smile appeared on his face.
Qiao Yu looked up and saw a long corridor in front of him, and on both sides of the corridor were rooms made of steel plates.
Qiao Yu counted and found that there were sixteen rooms in total.
The doors of these rooms are all locked.
But Qiao Yu didn't mind the trouble and enthusiastically pulled Jiang Zhan to "treasure hunt" room by room.
It’s like opening a blind box, there’s an indescribable sense of surprise.
These rooms are not very big, only about ten square meters each, but they are packed with things.
Qiao Yu started from the innermost room and opened four rooms in a row, all of which were filled with rice and noodles.
Qiao Yu curled his lips, his excitement slightly diminishing. "Could this entire cellar be filled with food?"
However, although he expressed some disgust, Qiao Yu still put all the food into the space.
Qiao Yu had to admit that Yin Zhixiong was quite good at storing food.
After the end of the world, the air was very humid, and ordinary breathable grain bags were simply unable to store food.
Yin Zhixiong packed the food in a steel box, and all the food inside the box was packed in sealed bags.
Very well preserved.
However, looking at these grains, Qiao Yu felt that Yin Zhixiong deserved to be killed.
——They have so much food, but they insist on eating human flesh.
The fifth and sixth rooms finally contained not food, but a large amount of condiments, including all kinds of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
The seventh room contained canned food, ham, self-heating hot pot, and self-heating rice. Qiao Yu also found a lot of candy, potato chips, and instant noodles.
The eighth, ninth, and tenth rooms were filled with boxes of mineral water, as well as some juices, beverages, and the like.
Of the remaining six rooms, three were used to store clothes and various equipment, while the other three were filled with large barrels of gasoline.
Qiao Yu happily cleared out all the rooms one by one.
I even hummed a song happily.
Although these things can't even fill up one of Yushu's spaces, buying them in large quantities like this can still make people very happy!
Especially the feeling of getting something for free is comparable to winning five million on a scratch-off lottery ticket!
