Although they decided to join the Public Security Department, Lin Dong and his colleagues did not start working immediately.
After all, they had told Lu Yu the prerequisites before agreeing.
They will stay at the base for a few more days to see how things go. If they decide they really want to live there, they will buy a house and then start working.
However, an agreement was made that Lu Yu and the others would wait for Lin Dong and the others for at least twenty days.
In fact, for Lin Dong and his group, the resources they can currently obtain in the Suli Space, whether for food and daily necessities or for points, should be enough for each of them to live for thirty or forty years.
But there are always unexpected events. They can't rely on those inanimate objects. No matter what, having an official job is always a safer bet.
The agreed-upon twenty days passed quickly, and Xu Xiaojie reported to her post on the third day after entering the base.
She came to the base for the stable life and had no interest in going out and working. So after taking up her post, she went straight to Su Li, exchanged some of the supplies she had in Su Li's space for points, and then bought a house.
As for Lin Dong and the others, after a week at the base, they all felt there were no problems. After discussing it, they finally bought houses in the same building in the same community.
Everyone bought a house with a layout of over 80 square meters. The buildings in this community are all less than ten years old, the buildings look very new, and the corridors are very clean. Currently, they are considered to be very good houses in the area!
Su Li stayed at the base with the others for more than 20 days, helping to exchange some of the supplies for points.
Previously in Yucheng, Su Li, Lin Dong, and Qi Zhi received two batches of furniture and beds, as well as household appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators, from the furniture market and the small commodity market respectively.
These things have now found a use.
Huang Keke, Fang Chen, and Xu Xiaojie all used points to buy furniture with Su Li and the other two, and then Su Li and Lin Dongqi split the points equally among the three of them.
Two days before the four of them were about to start work, Su Li finally had enough rest at the base. The group had one last meal together, and early the next morning, Su Li left the base with Xuan Qing.
Perhaps because they knew that Su Li would not leave Tongcheng, and each of them had walkie-talkies at their disposal, there wasn't much of a sense of parting among them.
Although I didn't stay at the base for long, after more than half a month, the sudden transition from the peaceful and tranquil environment inside to the zombie-infested city outside the base still gave me a strange sense of desolation.
Zurich was driving an SUV this time.
Xuanqing squatted on the passenger seat, occasionally standing up and using its front paws to hold onto the side door to look at the situation outside.
Tongcheng is a city with few mountains and much land. The only two mountains are located on the east side of the city, and that's where Zu Li's target is.
These two mountains are not far from the base and can be considered the outer ring of the entire Tongcheng urban area.
There is a paved road between the two mountains. The slope is very steep, but it is the only road for the villagers to go down the mountain.
Zuli's car quickly drove onto the mountain road, and a dozen minutes later, the car stopped in the village.
She opened the car door and got out. After Xuanqing got out as well, she put the car away.
It was around 10 a.m., and the sun was shining brightly overhead, but perhaps because we were on a mountaintop, the cold wind was biting.
Xuanqing jumped onto Su Li's shoulder, scanned the village with its eyes, and its ears twitched: "There are more mutated animals than zombies!"
Su Li chuckled softly, "After all, it's on a mountain, that's for sure."
This is a typical mountain village in northern China, where most of the houses are single-story square-roofed buildings.
It seems that because it is right next to the city, almost every household, despite being single-story houses, is well-decorated.
Su Li led Xuan Qing on a quick tour of the village, collecting dozens of crystal cores along the way. Most of these cores were from mutated human zombies, and most of them were elderly.
Once you leave the village, you can see vast stretches of farmland on the other side.
But by this time, these farmlands had been covered by large swathes of robust, mutated corn.
These corn plants are already as tall as mature poplar trees, and some even have corn cobs the size of gas cylinders hanging from them. Just looking at them makes you worry that the cobs might suddenly fall down at any moment and smash any living thing on the ground into the soil!
Occasionally, the sound of something moving could be heard in the cornfield, along with the rough and unpleasant roars of mutated animals.
Su Li sighed softly, turned and left the edge of the field, walking through the village in the other direction.
The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the more mutated plants you'll find.
Su Li burned almost the entire way, and by the time she reached the edge of the mountaintop, a narrow path, just wide enough for two people, had been burned through behind her.
She stood on a rock at the top of the mountain, the strong mountain wind hitting her face directly. Even though Su Li was wearing a mask, she couldn't help but feel the cold, stinging wind on her face.
Xuanqing, perched on her shoulder, had its back fur bristling in the wind, revealing its snow-white skin underneath.
From Su Li's vantage point at that moment, he could see the entire base below the mountain, as well as a surrounding area!
Even the Qingchuan River, which runs through the entire center of Tongcheng City, can be seen clearly.
"I think this place is nice!"
Xuanqing, perched on Su Li's shoulder, whispered. Su Li walked around the mountaintop twice and nodded, "I also think this place is okay."
The man and the cat exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of satisfaction in each other's eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the mutated plant beside Su Li disappeared instantly, and in its place appeared a three-story Chinese-style villa with white walls and blue tiles.
[Ding—Space Reality Mode has been activated. Experience points consumed. Remaining experience points in the space. One separate storage room (storage area unchanged). One leisure pavilion and one ornamental crabapple tree! Activate Illusion? Please select Yes, No, or your choice.]
The moment the villa appeared, the notification sounds from the space crackled in Su Li's mind. After a while, Su Li shook her head and finally felt that the buzzing in her mind had subsided a little!
She quickly checked the actual condition of the villa she had received.
The style of the villa is not much different from its appearance in the space, but on the left side of the villa, there is an additional two-story wing room!
A sign for a warehouse hung at the entrance of the side room. Su Li went inside and took a look, finding that everything stored in the space was inside.
Emerging from the side room, one finds the ground in front of the main entrance still paved with bluestone bricks.
However, compared to the empty space, there is now a small pavilion in the courtyard, and right next to the pavilion is a clear little pond.
This small pond is the sea in the Zuli space, because the state of the water flow can be changed at will, and it can even be compressed into a small pond and brought out of the space along with the villa!
In addition, on the other side of the pond, there is a crabapple tree that is two stories high!
At this time, the crabapple trees are lush and green, but because it is not yet the flowering season, they are just a patch of green!
