Chapter 8 Chapter 8 No Water



Chapter 8 Chapter 8 No Water

Can you see it, or can’t you see it…?

Her feelings for Xiao Liang and Lu Suye's feelings for her, even though Lu Suye didn't say it explicitly, she could more or less feel it during the time they spent together.

However, when your heart is completely occupied by one person, you will no longer be able to pay attention to anyone else.

In fact, Jiang Qian also thought about what would happen if the person she met when she first arrived here was Lu Suye.

Then perhaps...her original plan should have succeeded long ago?

No ifs.

"I met him first,"

Looking into Lu Suye's eyes, Jiang Qian spoke with difficulty.

"You're a good man—"

"stop!!"

Before she could finish, Lu Suye interrupted her rudely.

No, it’s so fast??!

He felt he could still be saved.

However, even if he interrupted what Jiang Xi was about to say, he only temporarily postponed the topic.

After all, Jiang Qian had already sentenced him... and all other men in the world to death.

Love is the most unreasonable, tyrannical and overbearing thing in life, but when it comes to him, he has to strictly enforce a first-come, first-served principle?

It's ridiculous.

It was hard to deny that he was a little frustrated, Lu Suye sneered.

"Are you really going to that place in the North District? Do you know it?"

Based on his understanding of the zombie hunter group, it was impossible for Xiao Liang to stay with Jiang Xi all the time. He could guess this without Jiang Xi saying it.

So, when he got off at the survivor station in Furen City, and then Xiao Liang took her to the base, Jiang Qian would be left there alone.

And she would rather go there than accept herself now and let him be her future shield.

It is a great shame and humiliation.

Seeing Lu Suye asked this, Jiang Qian nodded.

But in fact, she knew nothing about the so-called North District Survivor Base, including this world. All her knowledge was pieced together through scattered information and what she saw and heard along the way.

Xiao Liang was a man of few words and wouldn't explain too much to her. She only knew that she would be safe there.

It has been at least seven years since the first case of the zombie crisis was acknowledged by the government.

However, they were all divided into regions, and lines of defense were set up. Humans had resisted and counterattacked.

Until the government can no longer hold on, the world falls into chaos and disorder, and humanity falls completely.

The time in the current state is not as long as seven years, but it is definitely not short.

"It's hard to imagine, how did you survive?"

This has always been the question in Lu Suye's mind.

She had never revealed to anyone that she was not actually from this world, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that she simply did not have the ability to live here alone for so long.

I am afraid that my silence will be seen as a guilty conscience, which will lead to more bizarre speculations.

"I used to..." Jiang Qian lowered her eyes and said softly, "I had a boyfriend."

"We were hiding near Grizzlytown, where there were a lot of lumber mills,"

Since it is a made-up story, it has to be a mixture of truth and falsehood so that there are no loopholes. "...we lived there for a long time."

Her voice brings time back to the distant past and immerses people in it.

——Comes from the basic qualities of an actor.

It’s a pity that the story is warm and beautiful, but the ending is very bleak.

"Not long ago, he used his body to block the zombies so that I could escape..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Ying's eyes were filled with sorrow.

I believe that anyone with empathy will not ask for details.

For example, in the end, her boyfriend was unable to defeat "Join" or died directly.

Lu Suye didn't either, but it wasn't about empathy, he just wanted to verify his own guess -

"Later, you met Xiao Liang?"

"Yes," Jiang Qian continued the part of her story that actually happened here. Even if Lu Suye had called Xiao Liang there, it would still make sense. "At that time, I was besieged by a large group of zombies, and it was Xiao Liang who saved me."

Lu Suye knew everything that happened afterwards.

"Sure enough... it's just as I thought." (gritting teeth)

Lu Suye rolled his eyes in his heart. What kind of luck does that guy have?

Appearing when a woman is most vulnerable and in need of protection the most is the real killer.

Obviously, the times he saved Jiang Qian before, he was killed in seconds without leaving any trace, which made people despise him.

He didn't understand until now why Jiang Qian was so devoted to Xiao Liang.

So, he stopped trying to persuade her.

But this doesn't mean that he gave up.

"If your boyfriend were still alive..."

His tone was slightly veiled and meaningful. Lu Suye said, "He probably wouldn't want you to go to a place like that in the North District."

If her "ex-boyfriend" were still alive, she would still be living with him in the lumber mill outside Grizzly Town...

But this was the second time Lu Suye mentioned the term [North District Human Survivor Base].

"Why?"

Thinking that this would be where she would live in the future, Jiang Qian had no way of ignoring it.

"Didn't Xiao Liang tell you?"

Lu Suye's expression was surprised for a moment, this was no secret.

"I thought you knew."

Also accepted.

"Know what?"

The curiosity that had been piqued was no longer easy to suppress, and Jiang Ting's eyes were filled with anxiety and worry.

"Because that is where the uninfected human survivors gather."

Lu Suye didn't hide anything and simply revealed everything, "Therefore, all 'creatures' entering must undergo a physical examination at the door to ensure that they are not infected or carrying the zombie virus, so as to avoid threatening the safety of the base."

As Lu Suye finished speaking, Jiang Qian visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought it was something else and it scared her to death.

While calming down, he agreed with the base's approach, "This makes sense."

"Oh……"

Seeing Jiang Xi's serious look, Lu Suye suddenly laughed, blaming him for not explaining it clearly.

He lowered the curve of his mouth and added coldly,

"It's a undress inspection."

Jiang Xi's expression froze on her face for a moment, and her fair and rosy cheeks became increasingly pale as paper.

As if afraid that she was not frightened enough,

"Take off all your clothes,"

"Coat, skirt, socks, underwear and..."

“The kind that doesn’t leave a single thing.”

"Then, the base guards will shine a strong light on the applicant's naked body, carefully examining every inch of skin covering the outermost part of the body."

"By the way, have you ever seen a fat person? The kind of overweight people whose weight is measured in tons. There are actually a lot of them in this land..."

"Because they are too fat, they are pulled down by gravity. The fat on their bodies is like melted fondant cake, piled up layer by layer, which makes it difficult to check."

"But to be on the safe side, the guards in charge of the inspection will peel them off layer by layer, very patiently. No matter which part of the body, which gap inside cannot be seen at a glance, they will peel it open and check--"

“That’s enough!”

Jiang Qian could no longer bear the torture of Lu Suye's slow and detailed description of the details.

People who live in civilized society are ashamed to expose their naked bodies to others, not to mention the strict inspections by the base guards as described by Lu Suye, which make people lose all dignity.

Now, she had just one question.

"There are girls among the garrison, right? It's a same-sex inspection, right?"

This is very important to her.

How could Lu Suye not know?

"Guess?" he asked instead of answering.

"Yes." She didn't guess, she just confirmed it.

Lu Suye: "There are very few women in this world."

Perhaps they think that directly bursting the other person's beautiful fantasy bubble is too cruel.

He blurted out such an ambiguous remark, which led to a bleak story.

It was a response to what Jiang Ying told him about her past.

The number of individuals currently alive is affected by the birth rate and death rate.

It is normal for women to be younger. It is the result of the combined effect of multiple complex factors on the above two probabilities. However, Jiang Ying now seems to have no mood to discuss difficult problems in social sciences and humanities with him.

"Tell me, Lu Suye!" Jiang Qian wanted to hear it from him in person.

"Are there any female defenders in the human survivor base in the North District???"

——"There are even fewer women nowadays."

Lu Suye had already told her the answer, she just didn't want to believe it.

After the zombie crisis broke out, it became less and less...

It's not just women, it also applies to children and the elderly.

The physically absolutely disadvantaged groups are given moral preferential treatment and respect when the country is peaceful and prosperous. Even when disaster strikes, the social consensus is still to protect the interests of these people first and maintain their safety.

But when the crisis actually happened, the completely opposite magical realism turned these dogmas into worthless pieces of paper even more useless than the currency issued by the previous government.

At least in America, it doesn't exist.

In the face of a disaster that threatens all of humanity, only the fittest can survive.

Strong.

"You should have read history books, right? You know about those great famines recorded in ancient times, or more recently, wars between nations. And the UN's daily distribution of relief supplies, where only women and children receive a share... Why?"

...After all, only in this way can they survive.

Be left behind.

Part.

The bloody and cruel veil was unveiled so suddenly, without any preparation.

The current state of the world before Jiang Qian, with its order broken and growth rampant, was far worse than she had imagined.

This time, she was in on the action.

However, compared to the apocalyptic chaos she had read about in books before, it was at best a string of numbers that made her scalp tingle, and became a test point to be remembered.

Her gentle path of inquiry made her understand that such a thing was possible.

But during the conversation, it was clearly revealed that Lu Suye knew the rules under these shadows, and the truth built on the sea of ​​blood and mountains of corpses was even more terrifying.

This is a hell of a place that's almost like a Handmaid's World!

"I don't recommend you go,"

Sincerely.

Lu Suye felt that he had said everything he should say, and also said everything he shouldn't say.

Including his bias towards that direction, "How should I put it...?"

He tried to find neutral words to describe it, but when he said it, he couldn't find any "justice".

It's because the butt was crooked from the beginning, which is biased.

"It should be more 'feudal'."

Lu Suye told Jiang Qian that at least she was still a human being in the south, and she would turn back into an object when she got there.

Don't go.

"Of course, this is just my suggestion."

It’s up to her whether to listen or not.

That’s all I have to say.

Xiao Liang came back quietly.

Jiang Qian, who had been looking out the window, didn't notice anything at all, nor did she turn around to look at him as usual, but her eyes were empty and distracted.

This is very abnormal.

In about another hour, we'll be in the city.

The vehicle restarted, but Jiang Qian's mind seemed to be half sucked away. She kept compulsively thinking about what Lu Suye had just said to her.

In fact, before he ended his free speech about the "North District Human Survivor Base", there was one more sentence that deeply hurt Jiang Ting's heart and she could never forget it.

Sounds like a ray of hope,

[At any time, there is always a way out for young and beautiful girls.]

In fact, it plunged her into an even deeper abyss of despair.

The same way out.

Just as Xiao Liang told her before,

She can survive there.

Now she knows.

You can live, but how will you live?

It's hard to say.

-

The car stopped in front of a relatively well-preserved white house in the city center, which was in ruins with only broken walls left.

It can be seen that this place was once very prosperous and lively.

It was originally a hotel, but was later converted into a survivor station.

The contact point of [Foren City],

arrive.

"get off."

Xiao Liang was concise and to the point.

But he soon realized that being too concise wouldn't work.

There will be misunderstandings. — "The one in the back row."

He emphasized the names.

It’s to let Lu Suye get off the car.

"Wow," that's strange.

The fact was just as Xiao Liang had expected. Lu Suye was still not so self-aware. He seemed to be glued to the seat reluctantly, not moving at all.

The roads in the city are so winding, but Xiao Liang can always reach his destination accurately.

"You know the way well, don't you? It's like walking back home."

He solemnly retracted his previous prejudice against Xiao Liang's poor driving skills and even extended an olive branch, "If you ever get tired of your wandering life, would you like me to introduce you to a driver job?"

Lu Suye's eyebrows danced with joy, and he teased, "I have connections, and the salary is definitely generous. I am your introducer..."

Xiao Liang: "..." He tried hard to hold back for a long time before he didn't utter the word "get out" which was on the tip of his tongue.

I thought I would never see him again anyway.

Xiao Liang was not interested in the fat that Lu Suye mentioned, but it unexpectedly brought Jiang Qian back to her senses.

driver?

She can drive too, so she can be a driver!

"Bang! Bang!"

Just then, there was a knock on the car window near her.

There is a figure outside the window.

The car window was rolled down, and the face of the person outside the window gradually became clear.

He was a handsome man in uniform.

"Wow, a beautiful lady!?"

As soon as he saw Jiang Xi, his eyes widened and he exclaimed in surprise.

However, this natural and undisguised expression of his true feelings made him look very unworldly.

You've never seen a woman before?!

Seeing Jiang Ting's confused look, he himself realized his exaggeration.

It's okay, there are ways to remedy the situation.

Then he said to Xiao Liang who was beside Jiang Qian,

"Big driver!"

As soon as these words came out——

Xiao Liang: “.”

Jiang Xi: “…………”

It's so weird that it actually makes sense.

Maybe this person has a habit of adding an adjective like "big" before the name.

There are more than two people in the car, it doesn’t matter, it’s all the same.

Just apply the formula and you're done.

He was feeling smug, but when his gaze shifted to the back row, the light in his eyes was instantly extinguished.

"big……"

Seeing that sharp and piercing look——

Lin Yuan choked on the spot.

Boss.

He only received a mission from the guild, asking him to rush here as quickly as possible to meet the guests.

But the quest didn't mention that the guild leader would be there too!?

It can be said that the shock Lin Yuan felt when he saw Lu Suye appear in the cramped back seat of the sports car, sharing space with a pile of supplies, was no less than when he first saw Jiang Qian.

In fact, the latter is even more shocking.

No... When has the president ever wronged himself so much? Where is his Big G?

"Big what?"

On the other side, seeing this kid frozen, he was fine before, but when he came to me, he was as if he was suddenly poisoned and mute. The difference was so obvious that anyone could see the clue.

Lu Suye asked coldly, asking him to continue and not stop.

Lin Yuan: “…” First of all, let’s rule out Big G.

Then, he only had half a second to hesitate and think.

The president's expression doesn't look good.

Will he be finished as soon as he returns?

At the critical moment, inspiration struck the sky.

Lin Yuan swore that the next three words he said were the smartest three words he had ever said in his life.

"Handsome guy!" He pointed at Lu Suye.

Lu Suye: "..."

Jiang Xi: “…”

Xiao Liang: "..."

Although the compliments between the same sex were tinged with flattery, because this young man in the hotel butler uniform was so straight that he only had beautiful women in his eyes, not handsome men, and the only thing he addressed to Xiao Liang was just a driver.

As a result, he was willing to praise Lu Suye again, probably because he was frightened.

But there's nothing wrong with shouting like this.

Including Lu Suye who "took the initiative to find fault". On the surface, he looked speechless and looked at a fool, but in his heart, he was still quite benefited.

Calling him like that, he and Jiang Ting sound much more compatible than Jiang Ting and Xiao Liang!

Before closing the car door, Lu Suye looked back at Jiang Xi who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Until now, he still hasn't figured out the next step and what to do to stay with her.

Xiao Liang, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was ready to drive. He didn't want to stay here any longer.

At this moment,

"Do you have any vacant rooms here?"

Jiang Xi asked Lin Yuan.

Outside the car, the two men who had their eyes on him exchanged a brief glance.

"Ah," Lin Yuan woke up from his dream, "Of course, that's for sure."

After receiving a confirmed answer, Jiang Ting turned to Xiao Liang and said,

"I want to stay here for one night..."

This was her strong inner desire, but she suddenly realized, what did her thoughts have to do with Xiao Liang?

So, there was a hint of pleading in her tone, she was asking for his consent.

"May I?"

The voice was so gentle and pitiful that Lin Yuan's heart melted when he heard it.

Being asked by a woman like this, even the most hard-hearted person wouldn't be able to refuse! !

He firmly believes so.

But unfortunately, Xiao Liang is not a "human" most of the time.

However, there was also a small part of the time when he was rarely human.

"I've been sleeping in the car..." Jiang Qian continued to explain her "delusion" in an attempt to impress Xiao Liang, "My waist hurts and I feel very uncomfortable..."

She got what she wanted.

I managed to get half a day.

That is to say, they will stay here for one night, and tomorrow morning they will set out again and embark on the road to the [North District Human Survivor Base].

However, this time, Lu Suye’s seat in the car was no longer included.

After entering this post station located in an abandoned hotel, Jiang Xi realized that she had been deceived by her own imagination.

The hotel is a four-story building. The exterior appears to be relatively well-preserved, but the interior is severely damaged.

The stairs leading to the third floor were blocked by fallen heavy objects. There was no way to go up without removing the debris blocking the entrance.

But even if it was moved away, it was still a mess. The amount of cleaning work was so huge that they almost wanted to tear it down and rebuild it.

The only rooms here that are barely usable are those on the first and second floors that have been cleaned up and have their doors open.

As for those spaces where the door locks are sealed with glue, no one would be so desperate as to open them.

The air in the corridor on the second floor was filled with a smell of dust, dampness, mold, and an indescribable odor, which made Jiang Qian couldn't help but cover her nose.

Finally, we retreated to the first floor.

Only here, the air is slightly better.

There aren't many rooms on the first floor, and luckily, there's just enough space for each person to stay in one.

Although one of the rooms was filled with hotel debris, it could still be lived in after being cleaned up.

Beside the ice-cracked glass window, the old curtains fluttered in the sultry breeze of the midsummer afternoon.

There is a large wooden bed in the middle of the room, with a faint beige hue.

The cabinet was empty and the wood was not moldy, but the bearings connecting the cabinet door seemed to be rusted, and the slightest shake would make a harsh squeaking noise.

Same thing with the bed.

Jiang Qian closed her eyes and struggled for a long time before accepting this cruel reality. It seemed that the room in this inn was not as comfortable as living in her car...

However, this is also the current situation of most survivor stations. For those who have survived the zombie attack, they are grateful to have a safe place to stay and not have to sleep in the wilderness or in the weeds in the cave. How can they dare to ask for anything else?

This is heaven.

Only a difficult environment can temper a will of steel, and she must try to accept it.

Jiang Xi told herself.

However, the moment she sat on the bed, the mattress, which was obviously sunken, taught her a lesson.

Is this a trampoline?

The sour smell of the sheets that hadn't been washed for who knows how long, the flickering chandelier that seemed to be in a haunted house... all tortured her fragile nerves all the time.

Among the messy footprints on the ground reflected by the dust in the sunlight, there was a new one with crooked plum blossom claws that trembled with every step, tiptoeing.

The light stretched the shadow of the sneaky little creature very long.

It’s dirty, this place is so dirty!

Even Jiang Yongzhuang was a little disgusted, making it difficult for me to move my feet!!

But there is no way, the master is here.

Lick, lick, lick wildly——

They are not recording a prank variety show now, deliberately making the guests live a hard life. No one is restricting Jiang Xi's personal freedom. She can just go back to her relatively clean car.

But she didn't.

I just sat quietly on the bed for a long time.

She needed some time to think now, more than ever.

Help her make a decision that will affect her future.

Standing at the fork in fate, she had to think clearly: did she really want to go to the place where Xiao Liang planned to settle her?

Because once you embark on that path, there is no turning back.

You have to know that Xiao Liang has no feelings for her at all. He is like a cold and ruthless machine that only follows the program in his brain.

If she changed her mind and didn't want to go, he would definitely not send her back to see Lu Suye.

By then... she will be trapped in a miserable situation surrounded by enemies and will be at a loss as to what to do.

And this was the real reason why she wanted to stay at the inn for one night.

Procrastinate and try to figure it out...

Is that place really as hellish as Lu Suye described?

-

"Why is it you?"

On the street outside the house, two men stood in the middle so unscrupulously.

There is no fear of being hit because there are no cars on the road.

There would be no one driving, as previous intelligence showed that Foren was a deserted city.

After the original guide at the post station received the order and left...

Lu Suye was still extremely surprised to see himself here, and Lin Yuan could guess it to some extent, just like when he met the president.

It can be said that two people who shouldn't have met here met.

But there's nothing we can do about it. The task came too quickly and too suddenly.

Who made——

"I'm the fastest!" Lin Yuan spread his hands.

The helpless main color reveals a subtle sense of Versailles.

Generally speaking, men will not say that they are fast unless they are really fast.

The special ability is speed. It can’t be compared to the speed of an airplane, but it is at least the acceleration of a high-speed train.

Therefore, it seems that he is the only guild member who can arrive at this place within the specified time and replace the original staff in the post station.

This also explains why the staffing standard for the post station was to have at least a team, but eventually it became just one person.

Because nothing else can catch up!

Jiang Xi looks silly and probably doesn't suspect anything.

But it’s not necessarily the case for Xiao Liang.

He might agree to stay with us for this reason.

However, considering that his target was Jiang Qian, Lu Suye was too lazy to explore the inner world of this cold-blooded zombie hunter.

Based on years of experience, he knew that interacting with this group was a torture in itself, and he had no interest in it at all.

As long as he doesn't make things difficult for me, I won't provoke him.

However, he soon forgot this.

"Is Si Mu here?"

Si Mu was the original candidate that Lu Suye wanted to arrange to be the insider in the guild.

Compared to the Lin Yuan in front of me, I don't know how many times more suitable it is...

"Yes."

But in the end, he was defeated because he was not as fast as him, so he was replaced by him.

Lin Yuan nodded.

When he set out, Si Mu was still in the guild.

"Let them go..."

At this time, Lu Suye obviously had a new plan, but his brain suddenly got stuck and he couldn't remember the place name.

Oh, I remember now——

"Grizzly Town."

"Huh?" Lin Yuan was a little surprised.

There? A worthless neutral place.

Lu Suye always gave orders without explanation.

"Okay!" Lin Yuan received it.

"Did you bring anything?"

Lu Suye finally understood why he always felt something was wrong with him recently.

"oh oh!"

Lin Yuan reacted quickly and took out a square paper box from his trouser pocket.

Fortunately, I put this in my pocket when I changed clothes.

This is the most important task.

He tore open the outer packaging, opened it, and handed it over.

I only brought some things with me, but no lighter.

Hiss——

Bright sparks danced and rolled, igniting the white cylinder held between the man's fingers, which looked so slender against the backdrop of his thick knuckles.

"Stationmaster?"

Suddenly, a gentle female voice sounded.

The direction Lin Yuan looked in made his eyes inevitably light up.

This is a typical sign of seeing a beautiful woman.

Without any warning, a foreign object was stuffed into his slightly opened mouth.

"And Lu Suye?"

Jiang Qian witnessed the whole process with her own eyes. She just watched Lu Suye quickly stuff the cigarette with green mist in it into Lin Yuan's mouth.

"I ordered it for him." Lu Suye said calmly.

Lin Yuan: “…”

"Yeah." He held the cigarette in his hand and, in order to cooperate with the boss, he grinned in an awkward yet polite smile.

(Thank you so much.)

Lu Suye also laughed.

(Poor him, he hasn't even taken half a puff yet, and you've got it all.)

Lin Yuan: “…”

(Boss, you know I don’t smoke.)

Since she came, only their facial expressions changed, but there was no sound at all. Jiang Qian always felt that something was strange, but she couldn't put her finger on it for a while.

never mind.

"There seems to be no water in the bathroom?"

Jiang Qian said to Lin Yuan, "I just tried turning on the faucet..."

Since it is an inn, it should have all the basic resources for life.

The hotel clearly has electricity, so how come there is no water? How should everyone live?

"No water?"

After hearing what Jiang Qian said, Lu Suye's voice became louder. He also found it difficult to understand.

"Oh... this..."

The leader was right next to me, and suddenly the pressure came up.

Lin Yuan was a little worried. "It must be a broken water pipe. I'll go down and take a look."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

If the water pipe is broken, it can be repaired, preferably before dark.

Jiang Xi turned around and went back.

Behind her—

Lu Suye: "Can you also fix water pipes?"

Lin Yuan kept complaining, but he knew nothing, it was just perfunctory words.

"Water" is a problem that cannot be solved at all. During the previous handover, he found out that the people in the post station had not lived here for a long time. The underground pipes in this area were corroded and broken, and there has been no water for a long time.

Later, they simply moved to another place nearby. Because the conditions in the city of Foren were too harsh, when the handover came, the original group of people were so happy that they left without hesitation and went to the good place provided by their guild.

Time was short and there were too many things to do, so Lin Yuan didn't have time to report to Lu Suye.

Thinking that they were only staying here for one day, it didn't matter, they could just get some temporary water.

So the question is, where to get it?

-

It’s hot, so hot.

In front of the old electric fan, Jiang Xi kept fanning her neck with her hands.

She was not wearing a smock or a coat, only a tight-fitting dress, with her snow-white chest and thighs clearly exposed. She looked very cool, but in the room without air conditioning, all these were illusions.

She was so hot, so hot that she wanted to take off her skirt...

Without the maintenance of the government power plant, the city's power supply would have been cut off long ago. The electricity used by the hotel was all converted from solar panels installed later, which was so weak that it could only maintain the operation of some basic facilities.

The sticky feeling of sweat sticking to her body made her feel like she had jumped into a pool of glue.

Feeling physically uncomfortable wasn't the worst part. The faint smell of sweat mixed with the lotion she had applied on her body became increasingly stronger.

She glanced at the two bottles of water she had brought from the car.

However, after just a brief thought, she quickly dismissed the idea.

These are all drinking water, the most precious necessities of life in the end times.

Wouldn't it be too extravagant to use them to wash the body?

Compared to the girl who used up half a bottle of drinking water just to wash her face, Jiang Ting was surprised that she now had such a high level of awareness.

She seemed to have begun to adapt.

She simply wet a paper towel with water and wiped her arms and neck. As the water evaporated, the heat gradually took away encouraged her.

Her mood seemed to improve a little. She put on a short-sleeved jacket that covered her shoulders and chest, walked out of the room, and wanted to find the stationmaster to ask about the progress of the water pipe repair and see if there was anything she could help with.

Suddenly, I discovered that there were three pillars standing in the hall.

Everyone is here.

"Are you still a man?"

As soon as Jiang Qian came out, she heard Lu Suye "attacking" Xiao Liang.

What... is he a man?

So weird.

What topics are they talking about.

Xiao Liang felt puzzled by Lu Suye's questioning and didn't want to pay any attention to him at all.

Seeing the strange expression on Jiang Ying's face, Lin Yuan immediately explained urgently that they planned to go to a nearby supermarket to collect some supplies.

In fact, in his opinion, two people were enough, but it was obvious that Lu Suye didn't want Xiao Liang to reap the benefits.

So I must call him, we are arguing...

"supermarket!?"

Jiang Yi keenly grasped this key point, "Can I go with you?"

She never went to the supermarket before, and everything was delivered directly to her home.

But today's supermarkets are like treasure houses, full of endless possibilities.

Moreover, it’s free to buy!!

Jiang Qian strongly expressed her desire to go, so how could Lu Suye refuse this opportunity to improve her favor?

Okay, now it doesn’t matter whether Xiao Liang goes or not.

But just as the three of them were about to go out, an absolutely unexpected voice said something even more unexpected.

"It seems that I will be stronger?"

Xiao Liang folded his arms.

Jiang Xi didn't understand, while Lu Suye and Lin Yuan were stunned.

Then, a malicious smile burst out on Lu Suye's face. How come the sun has risen from the west, and this guy is eager to be a driver?

Of course, we can't let him down.

Compared to Lin Yuan and Xiao Liang who looked dissatisfied, who would be stupid enough to arm wrestle with a zombie hunter?

Losing was shameful, and to save Lin Yuan's face, Lu Suye simply let him stay and look after the house.

By the way...

Bring a cat.

Seeing Jiang Yongzhuang rubbing against Lin Yuan's feet obediently, Jiang Qian was surprised and astonished.

It didn't seem to dislike the man.

The last man I didn’t hate was Xiao Liang.

To be precise...the only man I hate right now is Lu Suye.

Fortunately, Lu Suye didn’t care at all whether this stinky cat liked him or not.

Seeing Jiang Yongzhuang and Lin Yuan being quite intimate, he raised his eyebrows.

"It's quite suitable."

This is a wise arrangement of his.

"Okay, I'll take care of it,"

The boss has spoken, and he resigned himself to combing the hair of Jiang Xi's cat and accepting the role of a nanny. Lin Yuan continued to maintain his persona as a kind stationmaster, and carefully instructed,

"Everyone, stay safe! I'll wait for you to come back."

The city map found in the post station clearly marked the city’s landmark buildings.

As the birthplace of Walmart, the largest supermarket chain in the United States, the business premises in the area where the parent company is located are the face of the company. Therefore, this supermarket located in the city center of Florence is the largest and most comprehensive.

Even though the city was looted many times by panicked people at the beginning of the riot, the blockade line was suddenly breached. In a panic, the government, in order to deal with the zombie attack, carried out targeted bombings in the city, killing 800 enemies and losing 1,000 of its own, directly turning many places into ruins of piled up boulders.

Including the several gates in the east, west, south and north of Womafu, they cannot be opened without an excavator. Because of this, the goods stored inside are estimated to be able to support the lives of at least one person in a small town for more than ten years.

However, this does not mean that this large supermarket has become a "tomb with rich burial objects that attracts people's attention" that can only be viewed but not entered.

The people originally stationed at this city post knew a secret passage leading into the supermarket.

At the same time, through the cooperation of resource exchange, it was shared with Lu Suye's guild.

The car stopped far away and there was no way to drive in, so we had to walk.

Looking at the piles of rocks and the uneven road in front of me, as well as the holes in the ground that could be stepped on accidentally.

This is completely different from what she thought!

Jiang Xi began to think of giving up. Was she here to climb the mountain?

Lu Suye was in a hurry to find the entrance and had already left them far behind and disappeared.

The person closest to Jiang Qian at this time was actually Xiao Liang.

But there was only a back view.

Thinking about not being able to rely on others, and also in order not to be left too far behind.

Jiang Xi used all her strength, using both her hands and feet, and finally climbed up a small hill.

The road ahead will be refreshed only when the perspective changes.

Is this a road?!

Jiang Xi's pupils dizzied. After an extremely steep slope, there was a road even more dangerous than the road up the mountain.

Less than half a meter away, a deep chasm stretched to the horizon, like a bloody mouth that had opened up and had not yet closed after an earthquake.

How is she going to get there...

Jiang Qian stood there helplessly. Just one look at the front would make people tremble with fear.

Not far away, the black figure turned around.

Xiao Liang looked over here?

Jiang Xi immediately withdrew her gaze and looked down at her feet.

At least, go down this slope first?

She gritted her teeth and squatted down, lowered her center of gravity, and moved forward cautiously.

Don’t be a burden!

Suddenly, a man's arm appeared in front of me.

Jiang Xi raised her eyes.

He met Xiao Liang's calm gaze.

He stretched out his hand towards her.
