The Zombie Empress Builds Infrastructure in the Apocalypse

After Fan Xin was forced to self-destruct, she was reborn back to before the apocalypse descended. Unexpectedly, even after rebirth, she was still a zombie. Unwilling to repeat her previous life...

Chapter 72

Feng San looked at Fan Xin and the others, scratching his head and not daring to go over, feeling very timid.

When he saw Tang Ruan coming out, his eyes lit up and he waved at Tang Ruan vigorously.

Tang Ruan paused and walked towards him.

Looking at Tang Ruan who walked in, her expression was still calm, but Feng San suddenly felt a little hesitant to get close to her. He always felt that her aura was very depressed.

"Boss?" Feng San swallowed and called out cautiously.

Tang Ruan hummed: "What's the matter?"

Feng San pointed to the foundation and said, "The foundation has been dug. Now we are waiting to use the steel bars."

Tang Ruan took a look, took out a pen and paper from his space and asked, "What size rebar do you want? Also, take a look at what else is missing and tell me everything."

Feng San quickly said, "The steel bars need to be 8mm or 25mm in diameter... Then there are the steel pipes... the clips, the iron wires, and the steel wires..."

Although Tang Ruan is a designer, she used to only design drawings and never took care of things on the construction site. The specific operations on the construction site were naturally done by engineers.

But now she has to wear many hats.

She is the designer, engineer, and foreman, and is also responsible for material reporting.

Tang Ruan quickly recorded what Feng San wanted and got busy. She quickly put aside the emotions caused by Tang Rui.

Feng San had been talking a lot and felt a little dry in the mouth. Suddenly, a strong fragrance filled the air. He was stunned for a moment and sniffed hard.

"Wow, it smells so good, is this the smell of barbecue?" As he spoke, saliva fell from his mouth. He quickly sucked it back.

Tang Ruan was disgusted by him and took a step back to distance himself from him.

Seeing Tang Ruan's disgusted look, Feng San quickly wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and looked straight at the direction where the fragrance came from: "Boss, isn't it time to eat yet? No one of us has gone in to cook yet!"

Men and women, young and old, who came from Qingcheng Town all joined in the work. When it was almost time for dinner, a few elderly people would go to the kitchen together to cook.

After Tang Ruan wrote down what he had just requested, he tapped the notebook with the tip of his pen: "That's all?"

Feng San's soul was almost taken away by the fragrance. Not only him, but the other people who were sitting and resting after their work all stood up and looked towards the Manor Hotel. They all seemed to have their souls taken away by the fragrance.

Tang Ruan: “…”

After Fan Xin arranged work for Yu Qinglong and Wang Hong, she also smelled the aroma of roast suckling pig. She turned her head and looked at those people who were staring at the Manor Hotel, smiled, and waved to Tang Ruan.

Tang Ruan walked over quickly: "Boss?"

Fan Xin pointed inside and said, "Let's go to the hotel restaurant for dinner."

Tang Ruan nodded: "Okay."

She turned around and asked Feng San to invite everyone to the restaurant for dinner, and Fan Xin, Sui Jing and the others walked in.

Sui Jing smiled and said, "Did he also make the candied sweet potatoes he gave me before?"

Fan Xin nodded: "Yeah."

Sui Jing touched his chin and said, "His cooking skills are good. He can open a restaurant somewhere like Lin Jidong."

Fan Xin paused, and looked at Sui Jing expressionlessly: "Then what should I eat?"

Sui Jing curved her eyebrows and smiled brightly: "I can do it. I'm also good at cooking. Do you want to try it?"

Fan Xin looked at him suspiciously. Sui Jing had never told him before that he could cook.

"Let's talk about it later." She felt that her appetite had been spoiled by Chen Ping recently. When she came back from Hongyue Mountain, she felt hungry and she would eat anything.

But now, she doesn't really want to eat instant noodles, bread or anything like that.

Shen Ping had a special pill, but he had never been able to awaken his special powers. When they were on the road, Fan Xin helped him to activate his special powers, which made Fan Xin Feichi satisfied. He had fire-type special powers.

As a chef, the fire ability is really useful and makes cooking a lot easier for him.

As you enter the manor hotel, the aroma of roast suckling pig becomes more obvious.

Shen Ping stood at the entrance of the hall and looked at Fan Xin expressionlessly: “Boss, everything is fine.”

Fan Xin nodded: "Send it to the restaurant after it's divided. Xu Yan, find a few zombies to help with the delivery."

Xu Yan quickly arranged for several zombies that looked no different from humans and were relatively good-looking to come and help serve the dishes.

Yu Qinglong tutted his words a few times and said to Wang Hong, "Actually, becoming a zombie isn't bad either. Look how majestic it is when you're at a higher level."

He looked envious, and then was kicked away by Wang Hong.

Plates of roast suckling pig were quickly laid out in the restaurant.

The roasted suckling pig has crispy skin and tender and juicy meat. When you take a bite, you can hear the crispy skin making a slight crackling sound.

"Wow, it's so delicious!" Feng San was eating the roast suckling pig and felt that he had never eaten anything so delicious in his life.

"Hey, I never thought that even in the apocalypse, I still have the chance to eat roast suckling pig."

"Yeah, even before the apocalypse, roast suckling pig was so expensive. My daughter said she wanted to go eat it, so I called to ask, and a roasted suckling pig cost over two thousand! Wow, it's so expensive."

"Haha, did your daughter go eat?"

"Of course I didn't go. It's over 2,000 yuan expensive. Eating a roast suckling pig would cost me half a month's salary."

Chen Ping roasted the suckling pig to perfect temperature, and the old men and women were very satisfied with the meal.

Fan Xin was sitting in a hotel private room with a whole roasted suckling pig in front of her.

She picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and passed it to Sui Jing's mouth: "Try it?"

Sui Jing lowered his head and took a bite of the pork: "Well, it's not bad, but not as good as mine."

Fan Xin squinted at him and asked, "You really can?"

Suijing nodded: "Yeah."

Suddenly, Fan Xin felt a strange mental force penetrating into the subspace.

Her face turned cold, and she quickly moved the things in the subspace back to the main space, then stared at the strange mental power.

At this time, in a base in a county town far away from S City.

"Brother Yuan, there's nothing inside." The man with gold-rimmed glasses held a transparent leaf in his hand. The leaf had a perfect and beautiful shape, and a faint golden color flowed on it.

A mutant eagle was resting on Yuan Qi's shoulder. The eagle's body did not grow larger, but instead shrank greatly, only the size of an adult's palm.

But the sharp claws grabbing Yuan Qi's shoulders, the fierce black eyes, and the long and sharp beak all proved that it was indeed an eagle.

Yuan Qi reached out and took the leaf, looking at the man with gold-rimmed glasses: "Is there really a space inside?"

The man with gold-rimmed glasses pushed his glasses up on his nose and nodded: "It's a space, it's gray and hazy inside, and the area is quite large. Although there's nothing there, it's not bad to be able to get a space this time."

Yuan Qi laughed: "It's a pity that they ran away."

The man with gold-rimmed glasses was also very regretful: "I thought they would definitely hide the things in the space, but I didn't expect that they would actually leave the things outside when they came back."

Yuan Qi leaned back in his chair and thought. Hiding the things somewhere else and coming back with an empty space, this just didn't make sense.

Everyone knows that things are safest when kept in space.

But he couldn't figure out the reason.

Yuan Qi handed the leaf to the man with the gold-rimmed glasses and said, "Such a large space is perfect for use when we go to the Zun County granary this time. By the way, have you arranged for everyone going to Zun County?"

The man with gold-rimmed glasses nodded: "Well, it's arranged. Brother Yuan, are you going too?"

Yuan Qi stood up and stretched his arms and legs: "It's time to go out for a walk. If you don't exercise, you'll get rusty."

As night fell, in the jungle outside the city, Bai Wenrou curled up on the ground, holding her stomach.

"How are you?" Pan Yuan wanted to see Bai Wenrou's wound, but Bai Wenrou held her stomach tightly and refused to let go.

Off to the side, Wei Nan's face no longer had the lovely smile it once had. Leaning against a tree, he said calmly, "Yuan Qi's lightning ability can directly shatter a tree into dust. It's a good thing she didn't get chopped into ash right away."

"You're the one who was chopped into ashes! Your whole family was chopped into ashes!" Baoer roared angrily, his body swelling up.

Wei Nan choked and stared at Baoer gloomily.

"Anan, shut up." Pan Yuan frowned. She looked at Tang Su, who was squatting beside her, wondering what he was thinking. "What should we do now? She seems very uncomfortable."

"I, I'm fine--" Bai Wenrou didn't dare to move at all. Her entire chest and stomach were in terrible pain, as if her whole body was scalded by boiling oil.

Although other parts of her body hurt, the hair was still intact and could cover it up. But the hair on her stomach was gone, leaving only a bloody mess.

This was the first time Bai Wenrou suffered such a serious injury. The pain was even more excruciating than when Song Yang injected her with the drug.

She bit her lips tightly, not daring to make a sound. Fortunately, her body was covered with hair, so they couldn't see how bad her face looked.

"Sister." Baoer approached Bai Wenrou cautiously, tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't dare to touch Bai Wenrou. Although Bai Wenrou didn't cry or shout, she felt that Bai Wenrou must be in great pain now.

"Sister, Bao'er will treat you." Before Bao'er could finish, Bai Wenrou suddenly yelled, "No!"

Her voice was so shrill and terrifying that it startled everyone.

Bai Wenrou was trembling all over, gritting her teeth and saying, "No, do you hear me, Baoer, no! I'm fine, I'll be fine in a moment, I'll be fine in a moment."

Tang Su frowned, stood up and walked over, tears streaming down his face. He looked at Bao'er, a little bewildered, and said, "Bao'er, can you cure your sister?"

"I said no!" Bai Wenrou, who was curled up on the ground, had red eyes. She suddenly sat up from the ground and looked at Tang Su fiercely: "Bao'er can't treat it, she can't!"

Wei Nan's eyes flickered between Bao'er and Bai Wenrou. He sneered and looked down at his toes.

Pan Yuan didn't understand why Bai Wenrou reacted so strongly, but from her and Baoer's reactions, it could be seen that Baoer must have the ability to heal others.

But she didn't understand why Bai Wenrou insisted on not letting Baoer treat her when she was obviously seriously injured.

Bai Wenrou held onto the tree next to her and stood up tremblingly. As she stood up, a strong smell of burning and blood came over her body.

"Bao'er, sister told you, you promised sister, right?"

Baoer wiped her tears and nodded: "But, but sister, you are injured..."

Bai Wenrou took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound normal: "Sister, I'm fine, really, I'll be fine in a while. Look, Sister can even stand up now."

Tang Su was silent for a moment and did not continue to ask about the treatment.

He rubbed his brows and said, "Rest for a while. When you feel better, we'll go back."

The space has been lost, and he has to go back now. He doesn’t know how to explain to Fan Xin when the time comes.

"What about you? What are you planning to do?" Tang Su looked at Pan Yuan and Wei Nan.

Pan Yuan glanced at Bai Wenrou, who was standing unsteadily, and walked over to support her: "Where are you going? I'll take you there first and then we'll leave."
