Chapter 489 Hot Pot in the Dark



"You didn't encounter a horde of zombies, did you?"

Bai Xizhu glanced at the bus.

It's alright, the whole car wasn't completely black, so it seems the journey was fairly smooth.

"No, those zombies didn't move at all. Then they went crazy and ate the people who hadn't had time to escape. We drove fast and went this far, but the screams behind us were still very clear!"

Bai Yifan's expression showed lingering fear.

I really don't know what this damn apocalypse has given the world.

Earth, already overcrowded, is a bustling and lively place.

It's lively now, but it's just a zombie carnival.

"It's good that you're alright."

Bai Xizhu, on the other hand, took a detached view of the life and death of ordinary people in the apocalypse, and felt very calm.

The survivors who escaped from the sheep village were already considered very lucky; at least they had a chance to escape.

In the apocalypse, those who are captured by zombies and used as blood bags have virtually no chance of survival.

Glug glug—

The weak, superhuman beings' stomachs rumbled from the roof of the bus.

They had been injected with drugs the whole time, and they hadn't eaten any spinach while running. They were on edge the whole way and were starving.

They sat on the bus, filled with excitement. Once they reached the Yunhua Safe Base, they would truly be safe.

The safe base will not refuse entry to any superhuman. Even if they leave the safe base without any reason, they can continue to carry out missions and collect crystal cores after recovering.

Life seems to be getting better and better.

Not only were the superhumans hungry, but the Bai family and the two old men were also hungry.

"Are you hungry?" Bai Xizhu scratched her head and looked at the superhumans on the bus.

They were all people with superpowers, and the Bai family had saved their lives. In Shanghai, a city where they were unfamiliar with each other, it was not bad to be able to get along with others.

The Bai family aren't stingy people; if they say they're hungry, they can easily treat them to a meal.

Of course, this meal can't be made from grains; it has to be something found on the spot.

"...I'm not hungry."

There was a moment of silence on the roof of the bus, then a weak voice came from above.

The main concern was that the Bai family might think they were good-for-nothings and abandon them.

It was late at night, and it was really unsafe to be with a dozen or so unfamiliar superhumans. It would be troublesome if the Bai family, fearing they had ill intentions, left them on the road.

With their current physical strength, they're barely enough to fill a zombie's teeth.

Glug glug—

The rumbling sound of my stomach started again.

They craned their necks and looked up at the sky, refusing to admit they were hungry.

We can always eat back at the safe base; missing a few meals won't hurt.

It's much better than being captured by zombies!

Bai Xizhu saw through their thoughts and figured they thought their own family wouldn't feed them.

In the apocalypse, survival is already difficult enough, and basically no one will treat others to a meal for free.

"We'll go over there to find Grandpa Wang's car and food in a bit. If you can move, come down and find some firewood!"

After Bai Xizhu finished speaking and greeted her family, she and Leng Yebai headed back towards the Sheep Village.

Knowing that his family is safe is enough; now Grandpa Wang needs to bring his garbage truck back.

The people on the roof of the bus stared blankly in Bai Xizhu's direction for a long time, unable to react.

Aren't there a lot of zombies in the direction of Sheep Village?

Why did they go back again?

Just to find a garbage truck?

And most importantly, are they really going to treat them to a meal?

"How about we go find some firewood?"

A younger superhuman swallowed hard, pressing his finger to his stomach.

During the many days I was locked up, I was never full and had no meat. I became so thin that I looked emaciated.

If they could, they would love to have a hot meal right now.

The superhumans were silent for a moment, then helped each other climb down from the roof of the vehicle and began searching for firewood nearby.

Fearing something might happen, they searched around the bus, worried that the passengers might have missed getting on the bus while they were running.

This is related to their experience. After being imprisoned for so long, they finally regained their freedom, so it's better to be careful, lest they die on the way to the base.

It's not worth the risk.

However, the temptation of the food was too great, so they all got off the bus and went to look for firewood nearby.

Before long, they had gathered a pile of firewood and watched Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai leave.

I'm eagerly waiting.

While waiting, they tore off their clothes and used them as rags to clean the bus.

One water-type ability user can only release about one bowl of water, but fortunately there are several water-type ability users, which is barely enough.

Get to work first, then you'll feel comfortable eating later—make sure to eat a lot.

Seeing the change in their expressions from blank stares to excitement, the Bai family ignored them and instead gave them some clean water from the car.

Two hours later.

As everyone waited with bated breath, a green garbage truck drove towards them.

The green garbage truck was covered in black blood; you could barely tell from the roof that it was once an environmentally friendly garbage truck.

At first glance, everyone thought the garbage truck was too dirty and that no one would pick it up if it were thrown on the road.

Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the garbage truck is covered not only in blood but also in dirt, indicating that it has collided with a significant amount of debris, yet there are no scratches on its surface!
