"Okay, but I reckon there are people living over there, so let's get the supplies downstairs and not go up."

Xiao Lingfeng has exceptionally good eyesight; he saw a figure moving around in the supermarket window when he came over.

They've amassed quite a lot of stuff; it's really eye-catching. They should keep a low profile and make a fortune quietly.

Jian Ning had no objections, and the two of them pulled the large swimming pool through the water without any effort.

We arrived at the supermarket quickly, and the doors were open. The first floor was almost empty, with the shelves bare.

Jian Ning went over and pried open all the cabinets; sure enough, there were things inside.

"Let's take them separately. Leave the cat litter here for now, and we'll take it together when we leave."

"Okay, I'll go see if there's anything else that can be used as a boat." Xiao Lingfeng went straight up the stairs to the second floor.

This floor mainly sells clothes, shoes, and bags, and of course, there are a few counters selling gold jewelry.

These valuable items were all locked in the cabinet, which benefited Jian Ning, who was very interested in collecting these glittering things.

They forcibly pried open the cabinets and stuffed everything into the storage space. Then they went straight to the third floor. This floor was full of small appliances, cell phones, computers, and televisions. All of these things were soaking in water.

Jian Ning picked out the items that were sealed in plastic and hadn't gotten wet, and was searching for treasures when she suddenly heard splashing sounds coming from the stairs in the distance.

I quickly crouched down behind the counter and saw two people swimming down in diving suits.

It seems Xiao Lingfeng was right; there really are people in this supermarket. Perhaps quite a few.

Seeing that their equipment was quite complete, I shouldn't have gone without a wetsuit to save time. Walking in the water like that would definitely scare anyone who saw it.

Without disturbing the two people,

Instead, she used a teleportation talisman to appear directly next to Xiao Lingfeng, who was filling a large bag with canned fish. He was startled by Jian Ning's sudden appearance.

"How did you get here? You didn't make a sound!"

"Stop talking, someone's coming down. They're probably after the food on the second floor. Let's hurry, it might be dangerous if we run into them." Jian Ning pulled Xiao Lingfeng along, helping him carry the bags, and the two quickly headed out.

In that instant she stepped outside, Jian Ning waved her hand, and half the shelves behind her were empty. She didn't take it all; she left about half for the others. If she was careful, it should be enough for them.

On the way back, they walked directly on the water, which was much faster than the way they came. Seeing that Jian Ning and the others had brought back so much stuff again…

The residents inside also opened their doors and ran out. There wasn't much food left in the house; they had heard yesterday that gold could be exchanged for food, so none of them came empty-handed.

Jian Ning was very generous; she would give a little something to anyone who wanted to exchange their food. Of course, the profit was huge. Before the two of them even went upstairs, apart from the cat litter, there was practically nothing left of the other food.

He left some canned fish and some potato chips and snacks that wouldn't fill you up. Xiao Lingfeng said that Tian Tian liked to eat them.

Carrying the cat litter upstairs, Jian Ning grabbed a handful of gold jewelry from her pocket and stuffed it into Xiao Lingfeng's arms.

"I found all of these on the first floor, here's half for you," Xiao Lingfeng said, not standing on ceremony with her today, taking half of the cat litter. After all, there are three people in the family who need it. This might not even be enough.

Jian Ning piled the remaining cat litter at the door and used the walkie-talkie to call Jian Anping to come out and move things.

Li Mengyao followed her out: "Xiao Ning, next time we go out, I'll go with you. It's unreasonable for your brother and me to stay home and let a young girl like you go out and organize supplies."

"We'll see. For now, we should have enough at home. I'll find you a few diving suits later so you can come along."

Jian Ning didn't intend to raise them all like flowers in a greenhouse. In the apocalypse, they had to adapt on their own. If they were separated for some reason in the future, they would have no one to rely on but themselves.

Jian Anping left her ten bags of cat litter and took the rest into her own house.

Aunt Li was stewing chicken at home. As soon as Jian Ning opened the door, a rich aroma wafted out, and she immediately felt hungry. Instead of going home, she sat in the living room, munching on an apple while waiting for dinner.

Suddenly, he stopped chewing and looked out the window in surprise. The rain of the past two days had stopped and the sky was clear, but now he could see dark clouds in the distance, moving rapidly and obscuring the sky.

The sunlight was blocked, and the room immediately became dark.

"Is it going to rain? Is this weather never going to stop?" Jian Anping, who was standing nearby, walked to the window and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, he exclaimed in surprise:

"My God! How come there are so many bugs?"

Jian Ning, holding the apple in her hand, quickly walked over. In just a short while, the windowpane was covered with countless wriggling worms, some even with wings. It looked particularly disgusting.

"Oh dear! These are locusts! They only appear in years of great disaster. Wherever they fly, nothing grows. Quickly, check if all the windows are closed!" Aunt Li shouted loudly from the kitchen.

"The skylight upstairs is open!" Jian Anping suddenly remembered and quickly ran upstairs. Jian Ning followed closely behind, pulling out a handful of nails from her spatial storage. These were particularly useful as concealed weapons.

When I got upstairs, I saw that there were already a hundred or so huge locusts flying around everywhere. Luckily, the door leading downstairs was closed, otherwise they would definitely have flown downstairs.

Jian Anping first went to close the skylight, and when he turned around, he saw that the floor of the room was covered with the corpses of locusts. Each one had iron nails stuck in its body. Some nails even had two or three locusts stuck on them.

They were so surprised that their mouths dropped open!

"Brother, I'm leaving the cleanup to you. Just make sure the sunroof is closed properly next time. Who knows what might get in next time!"

Jian Ning clapped her hands, calmly turned around and went downstairs.

At this moment, piercing screams echoed from downstairs. No one dared to open the door and go out to see. Just from the sounds, one could tell what kind of suffering these people were enduring.

It took more than an hour for the locust army to fly over.

"Jian Ning, Jian Ning, are you alright?" Cao Xue's terrified voice came through the walkie-talkie at that moment.

"It's fine, what's up?" Jian Ning's answer was crisp and efficient.

"That was terrifying! Those were locusts, weren't they? I saw them bite the person downstairs down to a skeleton. That person was paddling a big basin out to look for something."

"They're still in the water downstairs. Jian Ning, what's wrong with this world? Is this really the end of the world?" Cao Xue's voice was trembling with tears; it seemed that what she had just witnessed had truly frightened her.

"Don't go looking, try to stay indoors, Cao Xue. Whether you admit it or not, the apocalypse has indeed come." Jian Ning paused for a moment before stating the fact.
