Chapter 98 Another Use of Brain Core
The zombies wandering in the darkness were attracted by the sound of the bus and the breath of living people, and gradually surged. Unable to catch up with the car, the surging zombies slowly calmed down and returned to their previous dazed wandering state.
Occasionally, a few blind zombies would block the front of the car. Guozi would step on the accelerator and crash into them. "If we keep pretending to be zombies like this, this car will be scrapped. It would be much better if we had a tank!"
Tian Yao teased Guozi, "Do you want me to turn into Ma Liang, the magic brush, and draw you a tank?"
Guozi said with a grin, "Do you know how many wheels a tank has? What if you draw a bicycle and ask me to hit zombies with it? I won't do it!"
"I can draw a crane. It's powerful. It can hang zombies high up so they won't bite people," Lin Bo said. "The crane is too big. You can't operate it!"
"This baby is so cute!" Ye Xiaofang sat down near Lin Bo and took out some candy from her pocket: "Here you go!"
"Thank you, sister!" Lin Bo took the candy and put it in his small schoolbag.
Except for two middle-aged uncles and Lin Bo, the rest of the people in the car were about the same age. After a while, the atmosphere became very harmonious. When the four new people learned that Yang Zhijiang, who looked lonely, had lost his son today, everyone became much quieter.
Guozi parked the car at the gas station and filled up the gas skillfully.
Others took the opportunity to get off the bus and walk around.
Duan Lei stood beside Tian Yao and asked in a low voice: "Is there any way to collect some gasoline or something? These are necessities."
"There's no other way. We can only collect a few dozen kilograms. We might as well plan ahead where the gas stations are," Tian Yao shook her head helplessly. "Space is limited. Even if we use a truck, we can't load much. Driving a tanker with just a few of us is out of the question. We're too scattered to look after it."
"Then there's nothing I can do. I also..." Duan Lei stopped talking in time. Tian Yao only mentioned Guozi's spatial ability, but didn't reveal him. Tian Yao herself and Lin Bo's spatial ability were reserved for those four people. "I can only feel deeply regretful."
"What a pity!" Tian Yao said, "Do you know how many gas stations there are in a city? As long as we have drivers, we'll have no shortage of cars or gas!"
Duan Lei said jokingly: "I can ride a tricycle, I can take you shopping, go back to my parents' home!"
This brat teased her whenever he had the chance. Tian Yao glared at him, "Little brat, don't you remember what I said?"
"Remember, I'm giving others the impression not to target you. You've been targeted by me," Duan Lei said in a calm tone, with an unconcealable smile in his eyes. He didn't need to hide his cunningness in front of Tian Yao.
Tian Yao stopped talking. This was Duan Lei's own behavior, and she couldn't stop him. However, there were no rules in the apocalypse. She immediately rolled her eyes and asked Duan Lei, "Do you think I will be a queen top?"
"Queen, please accept me!" Guozi added oil and came over with a smile: "I am very loyal!"
"Go! Go away!" Duan Lei pushed Guozi away and put his arm around Tian Yao's shoulders domineeringly: "I won't allow it!"
"You go aside too!" Tian Yao slapped Duan Lei's hand away and denied herself. She was not a queen-type person. She didn't have any grand goals. She just wanted to live longer.
As for that little brat Duan Lei—
Tian Yao reached out and twisted Duan Lei's ear: "Little brat, go back to your seat and go to sleep!"
"Yes!" Duan Lei whispered this word into Tian Yao's ear. His lips almost touched Tian Yao's earlobe, and the hot air he exhaled blew gently on Tian Yao's face.
Tian Yao knew her face must have been red. Fortunately, it was late at night and the sky was dark, so no one could see clearly whether her face was red or not.
In the car, Hou Chao was taking a screwdriver and removing the back of a seat: "I'll remove the backrest so people can lie flat on it and feel more comfortable!"
Duan Lei, who got on the car first, also picked up a screwdriver to help: "Good idea, just take down a few, there are not many of us."
Liu Xujiang said: "That's right, just tear down a few of them, I'll lie down first!"
As soon as Tian Yao got on the bus, Duan Lei pulled her to a simple berth he had made with his bag: "Sister Tian Yao, lie down here!"
"I've paved the way for you!"
"What about you?" Tian Yao asked.
"I'll sleep here!" Duan Lei pointed to another simple berth across the aisle from Tian Yao.
Li Zhen walked around the gas station and said, "Everyone, how about sleeping in the car tonight? It's not convenient to drive at night."
"I fully agree!" Ye Xiaofang said, "We're not in a rush to go anywhere anyway, so safety comes first!"
"We found a few zombies, but they're gone now," Wang Qiancheng said as he got into the car. "We can sleep in the gas station."
Ye Xiaofang pointed at the simple sleeper berth and said, "For your future, sleep on this one."
“When I heard about sleeping in a gas station, I felt it was unsafe!”
"Okay, if you all agree, it doesn't matter," Guozi said. "From here, driving down to the nearest village takes about two hours. To get to the next city? A professional driver would probably spend an entire afternoon driving, so for someone like me who doesn't know the way, that's hard to say!"
Yang Zhijiang sat in the car in a daze, watching the first rays of morning glow outside the window. He rubbed his dry and sore eyes and sighed deeply.
Tian Yao handed him a handful of sparkling brain cores: "Uncle Yang, eat this. You'll have superpowers after eating it!"
"I want to try it too!" Wen Qingjiang said.
Yang Zhijiang picked up a blue one and put it in his mouth. Wen Qingjiang picked up a red brain core and put it in his mouth after a moment of hesitation.
Wen Qingjiang said: "I don't seem to have changed!"
"Is this a supernatural power?" Yang Zhijiang raised his hand, and a thin stream of water emerged from his fingers: "What can this do?"
"Huh? Why don't I have it?" Wen Qingjiang turned his hands over and over.
"I guess your chance hasn't come yet." Tian Yao only learned yesterday that brain cores can stimulate people's superpowers. She had no experience in the past and she still has no experience now. "Why don't you ask Nana to try this?"
"Easy!" Wen Qingjiang took a emerald green wood-type brain core from Tian Yao's hand and said, "Just stuff it in!"
Bai Nana was sleeping soundly when Wen Qingjiang opened her mouth and stuffed a brain core into her throat. She was startled awake: "What is that? What is that? What did you give me to eat, you damn mosquito?"
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Wen Qingjiang's face full of smirk, and the others were also looking at her with smiles.
"Good stuff!" Wen Qingjiang said with a smile.
Seeing that Wen Qingjiang didn't say anything, Bai Nana raised her hand to pat him. A thin vine spread out from her hand and lashed towards Wen Qingjiang like a whip.
"Ah, what is this?" Wen Qingjiang, who was hit, had not yet cried out in pain when everyone in the car was awakened by Bai Nana's loud voice.
"Why do you have superpowers but I don't?" Wen Qingjiang was hit by a vine, feeling both painful and helpless.
"Would you like a few more? Perhaps there's a chance or something?" Tian Yao reached out. Wen Qingjiang had chosen the red ones, so she took out a few more red brain cores.
"Forget it, I won't try anymore." Wen Qingjiang looked at the thing in Tian Yao's hand and suppressed the desire to reach out: "I believe more that the fate you said hasn't arrived yet."
Was that just something she said casually? Tian Yao placed two red brain cores in Wen Qingjiang's hands and said, "When you want to try it, try it again!"
