Chapter 101 Yellow Feed Bag
Ever since the sun emerged from the horizon, the tents in the shantytown became stuffy and hot, making it impossible for people to stay inside.
But three-year-old Chen Ruihuan did not run away. Instead, he listened to his father and hid in the tent without saying a word.
The malnourished, dry and yellow hair stuck to the little head, and the little lips were dry and cracked.
He carefully unscrewed the lid of a small farmer's water bottle and took a sip of the water inside, but was reluctant to drink more, so he screwed the lid back on and held it in his arms.
Suddenly, two rough male voices were heard outside the tent. Chen Ruihuan quickly opened the pig feed bag on the ground, rolled himself into a small ball, and crawled into the hole covered by the bag.
"Has the guy number 112 not been back for a few days?"
"This... seems like he hasn't been seen for a few days. He must have died outside. But he seemed to be holding a child when he came in. The child might still be in that tent."
The gruff-voiced man's eyes lit up when he heard there was a child, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
The other man scratched his head, chuckled timidly, and replied, "I don't know. I've never seen him bring the child out. I don't even know if the child is still there."
"Go in and take a look! He's been away for two or three days, and he hasn't renewed his lease on food. The tent should have been taken back long ago. Let's leave it empty for him. We're doing charity!"
While making excuses, the two men confidently unzipped the tent and got in.
But as soon as I walked in, I saw that it was completely empty, with bare walls and nothing visible!
The two men walked around the tent cursing but couldn't find anything valuable.
The man with the rough voice was so angry that he kicked the iron can on the ground. It hit the tent cloth and rolled to the ground with a clanging sound.
In the cave, Chen Ruihuan covered his nose and mouth tightly with his dirty little hands. He was trembling with fear, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
"What the hell! There's nothing left, you pauper!"
After kicking the feed bag blanket in the corner to vent his anger, the man with a rough voice stared at the other person with a bad look.
"There's nothing! Didn't you say you had a child?!"
In addition, this person was also annoyed by the "poor man" in front of him, but at this time he did not dare to complain. He could only lower his head and apologize.
He hurriedly pulled the man and asked him to go to the beautiful widow's tent in front to have a good "rest", and only then did he escape a beating.
Then the two men left the tent, the dirty words faded away, and Tent 112 was reported as vacant by the two men.
Chen Ruihuan was still curled up in the cave, motionless, holding tightly to the only remaining bottle of water and two pieces of coarse flour bread in his arms, hot tears falling from his big dark eyes.
"dad……"
The salty tears flowed into his mouth. He licked them ignorantly, quickly suppressed the fear and grievance in his heart, and stopped crying.
There's not much water left in the bottle. Crying will make you thirsty again. If Huanhuan drinks a few more sips of water, there won't be any left when Dad comes back. We have to save some...
He touched the Ultraman beside him, recalled Ultraman's bravery when he encountered suffering, and pulled the corners of his dry mouth as he continued to hold the food and wait for his father whose life or death was uncertain.
However, before poor Chen Ruihuan could feel relieved for even two seconds, a series of footsteps were heard outside again, coming from far away, messy and steady.
Chen Ruihuan's nerves were tense again, and he curled up his body and hid himself.
"Number 112, this is it! It's not bad. Although the conditions are not very good, our tents are either opposite each other or in a townhouse. It's close and convenient. Not bad!"
Li Guangzong's energetic voice rang out at the door of Tent 112, trying to find some advantages in the extremely poor living environment.
Xu Yang didn't respond to him and went straight into tent 112 with his things.
"Come in and take a rest. Aren't you tired of talking?"
Li Guangzong followed him into the tent and angrily muttered to Xu Yang, "Hey, you think I'm too talkative now, but who was the first to ask to stay in the same tent with me? I still think I'm disgusted with you!"
Xu Yang took off his backpack and placed it on the feed bag that was like a mat on the floor. He glanced at Li Guangzong and said, "Xu Shuyao and the other girls will live together. Brother Bohong has to take care of Grandma Yang. The largest room will naturally be given to Brother Mo Xing and Sister Yu to take care of the spiritual treasure. If we don't live together, you can get a separate room. Do you have the money?"
Li Guangzong, a "rich second generation" who had no shortage of money before the end of the world, was now holding a backpack that had just been mostly looted by the inspector. He was so angry that his lips were shaking and he couldn't refute.
"You! I won't talk to you anymore! We're breaking up!!"
He was so angry that he threw his bag together with Xu Yang's backpack and was about to leave angrily.
Xu Yang, whose hearing was enhanced by his supernatural power, suddenly moved his ears and seemed to hear something screaming in pain.
Grabbing Li Guangzong's hand, Li Guangzong looked back triumphantly, his eyes full of 'I will only forgive you if you beg me'.
But Xu Yang ignored him completely and put his index finger in front of his lips to make a 'hush' gesture for silence.
Li Guangzong is not a person who is ignorant of the times. After struggling in the apocalypse for so long, he can quickly adapt his attitude when it is time to be serious.
He immediately reached for the knife at his waist and approached Xu Yang cautiously. Then the two of them, fully armed, slowly approached the corner where the backpacks were piled.
Xu Yang was afraid of alerting the target, so he carefully picked up the backpack and placed it aside. He pointed the sharp tip of the knife at the yellow feed bag on the ground and exchanged glances with Li Guangzong.
The next second, Li Guangzong quickly opened the yellow feed bag!
