Chapter 3 Mountain Picking
I really don't understand why I can't open the door when I can't see where it is locked.
"Let go, let go, let go."
Lin Luyan squeezed into the crowded crowd and slapped away the rough hands that were trying to pull the door out. "Master, be gentle. If you break the door, you'll have to pay for it."
Even though it's a little broken, a little small, and a little old, it's her precious refuge. What if it's damaged by these ruthless people? She won't be able to afford the compensation!
"I saw they couldn't open it, so I came to try too. This door is really strange. It's obviously not locked, but no matter how hard I try, I can't open it."
The sturdy man touched the back of his head with his fat hand and smiled innocently, the fat on his face shaking violently. "Little girl, you are so worried about this door, so this store is yours?"
The noisy crowd around them quieted down collectively after hearing what the strong man said.
This restaurant that suddenly appeared in the morning was really strange. They had never seen a building built overnight.
A college student who passed by half a minute ago told them that they could transport the complete building here through 3D modeling without laying the foundation.
The old men and women sitting on the stone piles were fanning themselves vigorously with the fans they made, with their legs crossed, their eyes and ears looking in all directions, trying to store all the gossip in the information database in their minds.
I was bored and noticed passers-by taking a few extra glances at the restaurant. I absorbed and organized what I had heard from others and took the initiative to answer their questions:
"I found it in the mountains. No one wanted it there, so someone picked it up and brought it here on a big truck."
Passersby nodded in agreement. Despite their age, the elderly woman possessed a wide range of knowledge. This level of rags must have been picked up from the mountains.
The elderly people who spread the knowledge were quite modest and did not take any credit for themselves. "This was all told to us by a kind young man. As expected of someone who has been to university, he knows a lot."
Word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The small restaurant that appeared overnight was inexplicably given a very reliable but also legitimate reason that seemed amiss.
With everyone's eyes focused on her, Lin Luyan didn't dare to admit in public that the restaurant was hers. She shook her head like a rattle, denying it repeatedly, with a barely perceptible panic flashing in her eyes.
She clearly remembered that the door was not transparent yesterday and she couldn't see what was inside at all. Why did it become like this today?
From her perspective, the tall wooden table at the front desk was very obvious.
The group's focus was entirely on the "lock." To verify another point, Lin Luyan found a quiet, honest, short-haired auntie and leaned over to quietly ask her, "Auntie, what do you think of the layout inside? Does it resemble the restaurant I usually eat at?"
The short-haired aunt seemed to have heard some shocking statement. Her wrinkles appeared densely and her eyes widened. She looked at the small restaurant and then at Lin Luyan, extremely surprised:
"Little girl, are you extremely nearsighted? You need to get glasses. There's clearly nothing in there."
Lin Luyan could only nod dejectedly, her thoughts a little confused, but she didn't show it on her face. She agreed with the stranger and admitted that her eyesight was not good, otherwise she would not have made a mistake.
But she soon figured it out. The moon and stars disappeared for no reason, the sand and snow suddenly fell, and the restaurant that went against common sense all hinted to the humans on the blue planet: the end of the world is coming.
Therefore, what ordinary people see is different from what she sees.
…………
8 hours left until the end of the world.
Lin Luyan learned intensive fighting skills for three days, and gradually gained more confidence and became less worried about the zombies.
When zombies first appeared, they only looked scary but their movements were extremely slow.
If you are brave enough and pay a little attention to dodging, you won't get hurt and can just shoot the enemy in the head and kill them with one shot.
After Grandma Lin passed away, the Lin's Noodle Shop was left to her granddaughter Lin Luyan, who had been with her for twenty years.
After operating in the best location for more than ten years, the noodle shop has made considerable profits. Even though Lin Luyan has stockpiled so many supplies, she still has some spare money.
She went to the best RV rental company in the city and rented a high-end RV for one day for 5,000 yuan.
300-liter fuel tank, 500-liter clean water tank, anti-collision and explosion-proof paint material, steel protective net, high-efficiency solar panels, a through-cabin in the car, and a 2-kilowatt silent generator.
It is simply the perfect means of transportation for the end of the world.
The shabby and deserted little restaurant could not give Lin Luyan enough sense of security.
In case you cannot withstand the increasingly powerful zombie army, it is very necessary to prepare the means of escape as early as possible.
After buying almost all the necessary daily necessities, Lin Luyan looked at the balance in her wallet.
Sixty cents.
Very good, the flowers are clean.
With 17 minutes left until the end of the world, fate continues to spin along the wheel of time. Little do we know that changes and turning points are about to come.
After arranging everything, Lin Luyan tore off the "Temporarily Closed" note posted outside Lin's Noodle House, moved a wooden chair, and sat down by the door.
According to the trajectory of the previous life, in two minutes, that mysterious and vicissitudes voice will appear.
In an instant.
The sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder roared, shaking the entire earth.
Passersby walking on the street felt that something was wrong and looked for places to hide nearby.
I couldn't help but swear. This damn God is getting different every day. Sooner or later, I'm going to have a heart attack from it.
"Hello, humans of Blue Star. It's an honor for you to have your planet included in the Ada Space Cleanup Plan."
"Now you will receive the first and final warm reminder. In fifteen minutes, a large number of zombies will be released onto the Blue Star, and they will spawn at irregular intervals. Find [wahada] as soon as possible and grow stronger together!"
In her previous life, Lin Luyan had also heard these frightening remarks. Although they were meant to be a gentle reminder, the voice was cold and chilling, like that of a ghost seeking revenge.
When she heard this, she was both scared and confused.
What is Yada space, what is wahada.
She had never heard of any of it.
The word "zombie" made her tremble in fear. It turned out that the monsters in the movies could actually appear in the real world.
Lin Luyan, who lived her life again, had a completely different mentality. She understood that wahada was what people later called a refuge, and she was eager for the arrival of zombies.
After all, after killing a zombie, she can successfully activate the restaurant and get stable and lasting protection.
Lin Luyan stretched her muscles and worked hard, concentrating her attention on any movement outside the door. She placed a sharp silver kitchen knife on four layers of cardboard boxes, ready to attack at any time.
Screams, cries, and curses were heard all around, and the shop owners next door had no time to pack their bags and drove away.
