Xiao Yi hadn't felt this kind of unfamiliar social interaction for a long time. For a moment, he felt a little embarrassed. He took a few steps back and said, "It's okay, it's okay." He tried his best to make his voice sound calmer.
The woman raised her head, revealing a dark face. Although her face was covered with dust and sweat, she could still see her smile. She looked at Xiao Yi and asked curiously, "Is everything okay, big brother? I haven't seen you before."
Xiao Yi was slightly stunned, and then he realized that he hadn't communicated with strangers for a long time. He was used to the loneliness and vigilance in the end times, and used to keeping a distance from people. But now, facing the smile and greeting of this strange woman, he felt an inexplicable intimacy and warmth.
He thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, I just came here not long ago." He lied. He didn't want to explain too much, nor did he want others to know about his past.
The woman didn't seem to care about his answer. She just continued to smile and said, "It's not peaceful here right now. You have to be careful." Her smile revealed a hint of worry and concern.
Xiao Yi nodded, but a wave of emotion surged in his heart. He understood the woman's meaning. In the end times, people's hearts are unpredictable and danger is everywhere. But he also felt the woman's care and kindness, which made him feel a little warm in this strange world.
The woman seemed to have not expected Xiao Yi to respond in this way. She was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Oh, it's all over. Look, you have to live through these sad days." Although her voice was hoarse, it was full of power.
Xiao Yi was deeply moved by her words. Looking at the resilient woman before him, he felt a strong desire for knowledge. He wanted to know how she had managed to survive in this apocalyptic world. What was she thinking about every day?
Xiao Huaixi stopped walking and looked at the woman and asked, "Sister, what are you thinking about every day now?"
The woman was amused by Xiao Yi's words: "Hahaha, what are you thinking about? I'm thinking about whether I can eat enough, whether this damn weather can be more comfortable, and by the way, whether I can go down and fight those bastards to the death."
Xiao Yi was deeply moved by her words. Looking at the resilient woman before him, he felt a strong desire for knowledge. He wanted to know how she had managed to survive in this apocalyptic world. What was she thinking about every day?
So, he asked, "Sister, do you mind if we find a place to chat?"
The woman didn't expect Xiao Yi to make such a request. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, big brother, come and help me carry it. My house is just in front. Come sit for a while."
The woman was not polite and directed Xiao Yi: "Come on, help me carry it."
Xiao Yi took the steel bar that the woman had been carrying and followed her back.
The house they dug was not big and didn't even have any decent supplies.
I entered the room and closed the door. Without the bright sunlight, it was a little cooler.
This elder sister is okay, she has a fire-type ability, which suits her temperament very well.
The woman said straight to the point: "Brother, why do you look so depressed? You are dressed neatly, so you must be living a good life."
Xiao Yi was not stingy. His spatial ability was no secret. He took out two bottles of ice water, handed one to his elder sister and one to himself, and said, "It's okay, but I have lived in the other two bases before. Now I don't know whether I should stay in the base or find a place to hide."
The eldest sister smiled and said, "Oh, you have all these good things. Anyway, don't worry about these things. My husband is gone, I don't even have a child, and everyone who fled with me died. I survived. I haven't done anything cruel, right? It's impossible."
"So, just remember, do whatever makes you happy. If you're happy sleeping at home, then sleep there every day. If you're happy beating up those beasts, then go ahead and beat them up. Everything depends on your own heart."
Xiao Huaixi didn't know what to say for a moment. It seemed that she had gained extremely powerful strength from these simple words.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel shocked when he heard her words. In this apocalyptic world, people are struggling for survival every day, but this elder sister can remain optimistic and tenacious in such an environment, which is not easy.
He looked deeply at the woman: "Sister, you are really amazing."
The woman was amused by his words: "Hahaha, it's nothing great, brother, it's all forced out. In this end times, there are all kinds of people, and all kinds of things are bound to happen. We have to learn to face it and learn to persevere."
Xiao Yi felt a warm feeling in his heart as he listened to her words. He knew that although this apocalypse was cruel, as long as there were people like this elder sister, there was still hope. He decided that he would be like this elder sister, persevering and living on, facing all challenges and difficulties.
So he stood up and bowed deeply to the woman: "Thank you, sister. You gave me hope."
The woman smiled and patted his shoulder. "Don't be so polite, brother. In the end times, it's only natural to help each other. If you have any difficulties, just come to me."
Xiao Yi took out another bag of vegetables and a bag of rice seeds and handed them to the woman: "Thank you, sister, this is a thank you gift."
The woman took it very rudely: "Brother, I don't miss your things, but if you offer it to me, I won't pretend to say no. This makes me happy."
Xiao Yi nodded and turned to leave the woman's residence. He knew that his road was still long, but he had found his direction. He wanted to pass on this tenacity and hope, so that more people could see the dawn of hope in the end times.
