"Brothers, grab your weapons, call everyone out and let's attack together."
Upon seeing this, Shen Zhijie quickly called out, "Brother, which gang are you from? I've never seen you before."
The man leading the dinghy had a sinister look in his eyes and spoke in a nasty tone: "Have you heard of the Sky Wolf Team?"
"We are the Wanderers, a small squad of the Sirius team."
"If you know what's good for you, hurry up and move the supplies onto our ship so I don't have to do anything."
Whatever the homeless man has his eye on, we must get it today.
"Hmph, they're ignoring them? Very well, brothers, let's get started."
Seeing the enemy rowing towards them, Shen Xi shouted, "Prepare for battle!"
Jiang Yao took out her Hou Dao (a type of Chinese sword), and Shen Zhijie and the others also took out steel pipes or other cold weapons. Seeing that their opponents were all armed with cold weapons, the wanderers smugly took out their only shotgun.
Although shotguns are not very powerful, they have the advantage of a wide area of effect.
Seeing that the other party had a shotgun, Shen Xi and the others exchanged glances and came up with a plan.
"What, scared?"
"If you had behaved just now, I wouldn't have needed to use a gun."
Seeing that Xiao Mu and Shen Zhijie had no intention of drawing their guns, Jiang Yao could only slowly lower her weapon as well.
Just as the homeless man lowered his guard, Xiao Mu made his move. He quickly grabbed the hand of the man with the shotgun, and in a push and pull, shook him into the water, then took the shotgun and handed it to Jiang Yao.
Seeing that Xiao Mu had dealt with the man with the shotgun, the others picked up their weapons and began to fight back. Jiang Yao picked up her shotgun, pointed it at the homeless man, and shouted, "Get down!" Then she fired a shot with a bang, hitting the homeless man's raft.
Because the distance wasn't properly controlled, the damage and hit rate were greatly reduced, leaving no choice but to use the Hou Dao for close combat.
Upon seeing Jiang Yao fire her gun, the leader of the homeless men roared, "Take down these men first, leave this woman here..."
"yes...."
Seeing that the other side had more people, Jiang Yao swung her Hou Dao at the attackers, her attack swift, ruthless, and accurate.
Hearing the commotion behind him, Xiao Mu turned around, drew his gun, and fired repeatedly, hitting his target every time.
Xiao Mu's continuous firing caused the homeless to retreat in fear, wanting to escape.
Seeing this, the leader seized the opportunity and suddenly rushed out, swinging his short knife at Jiang Yao. Xiao Mu kicked him in the chest, knocking him down onto the boat. He then turned around, raised his gun, and fired a shot at the leader, hitting him in the head.
Shen Zhijie, Shen Xi, and Zhou Bin fired several shots in succession, killing seven people in one go. The remaining people, seeing that things were not going well, prepared to escape by boat or swimming.
With their only shotgun stolen, the wanderers were destined to fail.
Because of the long journey and the delays along the way, the supplies were received by the military upon arrival. The person receiving the supplies was an old acquaintance of Xiao Mu and Shen Zhijie.
The group nodded to each other as a greeting.
Jiang Yao saw all of this but didn't ask any further questions.
Because they completed the mission, they were also unexpectedly rewarded with a shotgun, and everyone was overjoyed.
Most importantly, upon completion of the mission, the official team will give each person a box of luncheon meat as a thank you.
When we arrived at the shelter at 10 a.m., the people at the shelter were quite envious of the supplies as everyone carried them back to their lodgings.
After all, with such a long period of natural disaster, let alone having enough to eat, people haven't even seen meat in a long time.
Upon reaching the ninth floor, Jiang Xue saw the boxes with the words "luncheon meat" on them being held by Xiao Mu, Shen Zhijie, and Jiang Yao, and a flame ignited in her eyes.
Jiang Xue: This is meat!
Jiang Xue: If it weren't for Jiang Yao, I would be the one with Xiao Mu now.
Jiang Xue: Then all this luncheon meat belongs to him, right?
Jiang Yao returned home safely after a night of excitement. The first thing she did upon arriving home was to take out the brown sugar ginger water she had prepared in advance and deliver it to Xiao Mu's house next door.
Then I'll take a hot bath.
Lying in bed listening to the rain pattering outside, Jiang Yao was exhausted from the intense stress of the past few days and fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
When Jiang Yao woke up in the morning, she first went to the balcony to check on the cabbage and cucumbers she had planted a few days ago; the seeds had already sprouted.
Gently remove the thin layer of soil from the sweet potato. Seeing that the sweet potato in the flowerpot has successfully rooted, find a flowerpot of similar size in your storage space and begin planting...
After several days of hard work, Jiang Yao decided to treat herself to a pork rib hot pot and a spicy stir-fry today.
Having nothing to do, Shen Zhijie came over for a visit and said, "Jiang Yao, what did you make? It smells so good!"
"I'm thinking of eating here today and not leaving, you don't mind, do you?" After saying that, she sniffed a few more times.
"Shen Zhijie, are you a dog?"
"I can find it just by smelling it. I'm about to deliver it to you and Xiao Mu when it's ready."
"You can take it yourself in a bit!" he said, turning and heading to the kitchen.
Shen Zhijie watched Jiang Yao's retreating figure and said, "I think I should come to your house for a visit sometime. Look, I'm just in time to catch you having a good meal."
There was another knock at the door.
Shen Zhijie opened the door and saw Xiao Mu. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, "No need to go through the trouble of taking it back."
"Everyone's here now, just waiting for the food to be cooked and ready to eat."
Xiao Mu was taken aback for a moment, then frowned slightly. "When did you become so greedy?"
In the stairwell, Jiang Xue munched on compressed biscuits, staring at Jiang Yao's front door with resentment and jealousy in her eyes.
The floodwaters are still rising, and the stairwells are now filled with people. Despair is on everyone's faces, and the sounds of complaints and crying fill the stairwells.
Due to the humid weather, people have developed red papules of varying degrees, and some have scratched them so badly that they have broken open and become infected.
Jiang Xue recently developed the same symptoms. At first, everyone thought it was some kind of infectious disease and avoided each other, afraid that they would also get infected.
Even if someone walks past him, he will be met with glares and curses.
Jiang Xue's rash started to increase, so she had no choice but to knock on Jiang Yao's door.
Jiang Yao opened the door and saw Jiang Xue. She frowned slightly. "Is there something you need?"
Jiang Xue covered her face and looked at Jiang Yao, "Sister Yao Yao, can you help me?"
"I don't know if I've been infected, but now I'm getting red bumps all over my body, even on my face."
"I don't want to be disfigured, please help me!" he said, reaching out to grab Jiang Yao's hand.
Seeing Jiang Xue crying and pulling at the door, preventing her from closing it, Jiang Yao had no choice but to tell her that it was just eczema.
Just then, Jiang Sheng came downstairs and saw Jiang Xue crying and pulling at Jiang Yao's door. He thought Jiang Yao had bullied Jiang Xue, so he went up and shouted at her.
After learning the truth, Jiang Xue could only cry helplessly, which pained Jiang Sheng greatly. When he saw the red rash on Jiang Xue's face, he looked at her as if she had some kind of infectious disease and told her in a panic, "Take good care of yourself, your mother is still waiting for me!"
After saying that, he turned and left, as if there were some raging monster behind him.
