Chapter 43 Arrival at the Base (shuhaige.net)



Lin Anran habitually held that big hand, while casually folding various kinds of cars with her other hand.

"Hmm? This car is nice!"

After walking around the RV, Lin Anran was certain that it had been modified; the walls were thicker than the original, and the glass was also thicker.

She casually opened the sturdy iron door of the RV, revealing a fully furnished interior.

A comfortable bed, a spacious kitchen, a bathroom, a relaxation area... and various pots and pans neatly arranged in the cabinets—it seems she has much to thank nature for its bounty.

Ten boxes of instant noodles in various flavors, five boxes of canned goods and compressed biscuits, and ten boxes of bottled water were moved out of the space...

Lin Yu asked, puzzled, "Sis! If you take all your things out and someone sees it, you'll become a target of their jealousy!"

Lin Anran shook her head: "These aren't for us to eat; they're for bribing the people at the base."

"Wow! Sis, you really are my sister! You're so smart! I never thought of that."

Lin's father: "It's already very late. I'll go cook first and then get some rest."

"Eat...eat...hot pot."

Since tasting the spicy hot pot, Jiang Qinian has fallen deeply in love with it. The spicy, fresh, and smooth taste is a feast for the taste buds, especially when paired with a bottle of soda.

He couldn't help but swallow.

fragrant!

Lin's father scoffed disdainfully, "Eat, eat, eat! All you know is how to eat! Don't you know how troublesome it is to wash vegetables?"

"I want to eat it too!" Lin's mother raised her hand timidly.

"Make it! My wife loves it! It's easy! Do you want some barbecue? We're having a BBQ tonight!" Lin's father said obsequiously.

"Yay! I love you, honey~ Muah!"

One of the zombies, now nourished by knowledge, thought: "So it turns out you can touch soft cheeks when you're happy."

Understood!

Lin's father asked Lin Anran to take out the grill and hot pot that he had put in his space. They hadn't been used for so long and needed to be cleaned properly.

Lin Yu joined in the chores. The space was filled with freshly unearthed vegetables, free-range chickens, ducks, fish, and tender lamb and pork, making it feel like Chinese New Year.

In Lin's mother's words, being inside the base is not as carefree as being outside, so they enjoy every moment of happiness they can.

That's why we have the pleasant and relaxing scene we see today.

The front door was locked, a large plush carpet was laid on the floor, and a projector that Lin's father had collected was set up. Snacks, fruits, and drinks were laid out on the table.

Lin's mother sipped her iced cola and ate sunflower seeds with a contented air.

Tuantuan lay on the soft blanket, belly up, her little head tilted as she dozed off.

Big Black was frantically stuffing snacks into his mouth, oblivious to everything else.

Ever since watching "Empresses in the Palace," Jiang Qinian has become obsessed with watching TV. He stays up every night, holding Lin Anran's hand in one hand and a tablet in the other, like a teenager addicted to the internet.

Lin Yu brought over the grilled lamb skewers, one plate with chili peppers and one plate without chili peppers, which was Lin's mother's special dish.

The aroma was irresistible, and Dahei's drool dripped from his mouth.

"Hahahaha! Big Black, don't worry, your food will be here soon!"

Lin Yu put down the plate and immediately ran back to prepare a special dinner for Dahei and Tuantuan.

Lin's mother called out encouragingly to the two hardworking men, "Honey, Xiaoyu, you've worked hard! Enjoy your meal! I want more barbecue!"

"Okay! Honey, just a minute, I'll be right there!"

Lin's father is skilled at grilling meat; the large skewers of meat are handled obediently in his hands, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Because of Lin's mother and Lin Anran's delicate skin, Lin's father didn't allow them into the kitchen, so Lin Yu's cooking skills were also trained to be very good.

"Oh my! My husband and son are amazing! Ranran, your future husband must take good care of you like this, otherwise your mother will be the first to disagree."

Before Lin's mother could finish speaking, the ground suddenly shook, leaving Lin Anran standing there dumbfounded.

The zombie was already standing next to Lin's father, taller than him, and extremely intimidating.

"I...I...come..." Jiang Qinian reached out and snatched the kebab from Lin's father's hand.

Lin Anran had a headache. What was going on now? She didn't even want to watch TV anymore.

"Oh no! No! That's not how you bake it! Look, it's all burnt!"

Lin's father watched helplessly as his grilled meat skewers were engulfed in flames, shouting anxiously, "Brush on the oil!!! Oh dear, give it to me, give it to me, you stand aside and watch."

"Like this, first pay attention to the heat, make sure both sides are grilled evenly, then brush with oil, add cumin..."

"Come on, try again!"

"Yes! That's it! Good! Plate it!"

Over the next night, Jiang Qinian gradually lost himself amidst the constant praise, grilling hundreds of skewers until even Dahei couldn't stay awake any longer and strategically fell asleep.

I was dreaming about eating barbecue, and the whole dog was in a bad mood.

The RV was quite spacious, with a bunk bed at the back. Lin Yu slept on the top bunk, and Lin Anran slept on the bottom bunk.

Jiang Qinian didn't need to sleep anyway, so he sat on the edge of the bed holding the flat-screen TV, rubbing his little hands together.

The sofa is just the right size for Mr. and Mrs. Lin to rest on when folded up.

Dahei and Tuantuan nestled in the passenger and driver's seats, their ears perked up, serving as a warning.

......

The sun had just risen when Big Black began licking each of them's faces to wake them up.

After getting up and quickly washing up, Lin's father made congee with preserved egg and lean pork, as well as chicken leg pancakes, which they all love.

These days feel like a vacation; if it weren't for the apocalypse, he would really like to take his family on a road trip.

It's a pity, they're going into the cage.

As Lin Anran suggested, they switched to a minivan and drove along the way. Although it wasn't as sturdy as an off-road vehicle or a campervan, they didn't encounter many zombies along the way and easily dealt with them.

Around 2 or 3 p.m., they finally arrived at the southern survivor base.

At the entrance of the base, there was a long queue that stretched as far as the eye could see. Every meter along the wall stood well-trained soldiers, and others in civilian clothes patrolled the wall.

If I'm not mistaken, they should be superhumans recruited by the base.

Lin Anran and the others got out of the car, and Lin's father drove the car into the convoy. Everyone who wanted to enter the base had to undergo strict screening.

At the entrance of the base, loudspeakers were blaring.

"Survivors, please line up in order. Those with superpowers should line up on the left, and those without should line up on the right. No one should hide their wounds. Welcome to the Southern Survivor Base!"

After the car was disinfected, the group got in and lined up, but it seemed like it would be a while before it was their turn.

Lin Anran took out five boxes of self-heating hot pot from her spatial storage. "Dry rice isn't being enthusiastic; there's something wrong with your thinking."
