Chapter 128 Frustration
Li Ziqing moved a very large sofa down from the fourth floor.
The delicate girl easily carried down a large sofa weighing two or three hundred kilograms. It looked very visually shocking, but in the end times, this scene was normal.
It was just that my hands were a little small, there was no good place to hold on to the sofa, and I had to avoid damaging the sofa, so it was still a little difficult to go down the stairs.
A pair of larger hands caught the sofa.
"Let me do it."
"Thank you, Brother Chi."
Chiyou didn't say anything, just smiled back, and then moved the sofa to the lobby on the third floor.
The original layout of the third floor has been changed a lot. Several walls have been demolished, and the sofa is facing the window of the main wall, which is nailed with an iron fence.
Although these things have almost no defensive properties, after all, it is not the beginning of the apocalypse and the zombies' power is not much different from that of ordinary creatures, but people still habitually nail metal things to the windows when building bases.
It's just to seek peace of mind.
"Shouyun, throw the carpet down to me." Jiang Chifeng shouted to the people upstairs, and Li Shouyun walked up the stairs and threw down a rolled-up thick carpet from the fourth floor.
Jiang Chifeng caught it easily and spread it in front of the sofa.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, everyone was lucky enough to have a safe place, and there was no reason to be picky.
But as your strength increases, you can gradually make some modifications to the base to make living more comfortable.
Those who have truly survived the struggle in the apocalypse will actually enjoy it.
This does not depend on the individual character, but on the overall phenomenon.
Just like after a busy day of study and work, I always want to reward myself with a good meal.
It's like being in the painful weight loss process, rewarding yourself with shopping every time you lose a few pounds.
The principle is the same.
In the last days, you don’t know when you will die, so try to live the best you can.
So even though becoming stronger is imminent, everyone is still willing to take some time to transform the base structure after confirming that they will be living here for a long time in the near future.
Everyone was busy in the lobby on the third floor. When the dust had almost settled, Jiang Chifeng took out two cards and tore them open, revealing ice beer and cold drinks inside.
"Cards are really convenient. Even if there is no refrigerator, they will be cool when you take them out directly." Fan Cai took a bottle of cold beer, gulped down half of it, and sighed sincerely.
"Yes, the food is kept fresh and warm. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for us to survive." Jiang Chifeng also took a bottle of beer and tore open two cards at the same time. There were several more hot meals on the simple table that was still steaming.
Three months into the apocalypse, the soil and water sources have long been thoroughly polluted, and the food already available in supermarkets is either expired and contaminated, or has been snatched away.
"It would be great if I had a blank seal card so I could put some stuff in it and take it away." Jiang Yin also picked up a bottle of beer.
"This is similar to the function of a storage belt." Li Ziqing and Zhong Mei took the drinks.
"Compared with other belts, the basic attributes of the storage belt are much worse. If there really is a blank seal card that can replace the function of the belt, the strength of the equipment will be much higher." Li Shouyun picked up two bottles of beer, one for himself and one for Chiyou.
Chiyou rejected the wine that Li Shouyun brought and picked up a bottle of drink instead: "I'd rather drink the drink."
"Come to think of it, Brother Chi doesn't seem to smoke or drink." Jiang Chifeng said vaguely while chewing the food in his mouth.
"I still drink a little, but not after the end of the world." Chiyou took a bowl of rice and said as he opened it, "Alcohol makes the brain dull."
"But after the spirit value is high, the effect of alcohol on the brain will be minimal." Jiang Chifeng could only drink two or three bottles before, but now two or three bottles is just enough to whet his appetite.
"But what if you're drunk and suddenly get attacked, and the other person can weaken your mental state?"
"Ah... no, it can't be such a coincidence." Jiang Chifeng laughed dryly.
"The reason why coincidences are coincidences is because of uncertainty. Even the smallest probability can still happen." Li Shouyun shook his head and put the wine he had just opened aside: "Brother Chi is right. We were careless this time."
Jiang Chi and Fan Cai looked at each other, thought about it, and then put the wine aside.
They stopped drinking either.
"Okay, don't be so careful. It's okay for you to drink a little. At most, you can drink less. Under high pressure, drinking is indeed a good way to release pressure. It's a pity that you can't really get drunk, otherwise it will be too dangerous."
"No one will really get drunk in the end times," Jiang Chifeng said.
"Yes, and a lot of them." Chi You had seen more than one or two idiots, not to mention the drunk ones. He had seen several more stupid ones than this one.
"But once you become poison-resistant, it won't matter if you drink more. Poison resistance has a suppressive effect on alcohol. This is probably because alcohol is classified as a poison."
"Equipment with abnormal resistance is very difficult to obtain. So far, only Shouyun's divine power has such an effect." Jiang Chifeng said helplessly.
"You should be able to obtain it when you reach a higher level. Well, let's eat first, and then we'll go to the dungeon to take a look?" Chiyou changed the subject.
"The most urgent task is definitely to find a stable copy, or at least replenish some level 30 equipment. The situation in the nearby stronghold seems a bit complicated, and I don't know if it can be properly resolved." Li Shouyun said with some concern.
"There will always be a way out. Besides, we don't know the situation yet. Maybe things are not that bad." Jiang Yin continued.
Things are not that bad?
Fan Cai, who had actually been to the entrance of the copy, shook his head.
The guys looked tense and not friendly at all. There must be some restrictions in the dungeon, or some other factors. Things might not go smoothly.
After the meal, everyone simply checked their weapons and props and set off ten minutes later.
Looking at Li Shouyun lying on the railing in a daze, Chiyou walked over, leaned against the railing and asked.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Chi, Brother Chi."
Li Shouyun was a little scared.
"Why are you so absent-minded?"
"Nothing."
Chi You looked at Li Shouyun's melancholy expression and understood immediately: "Are you thinking of Tang Zhou and Zhao Ganghai?"
"…Well, these two always made a noise after dinner before, but now it's become quiet." Li Shouyun sighed, buried his head in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "Brother Chi, do you think I am not suitable to be the captain? If I hadn't always thought about saving people, Tang Zhou and Zhao Ganghai would not have died."
Is it because of the continuous blows that you have become less confident?
It's a pity that the world's will will change Li Shouyun's idea, otherwise a subtle blow would be quite good.
But now, it's useless to attack, so it's better to add some more relationships.
"Maybe, be it kindness or mercy, from the captain's perspective, you are indeed unqualified."
"I…"
"But." Chiyou interrupted Li Shouyun and patted his shoulder: "Look at these people downstairs. They all gathered together because of your kindness. It's not your fault that they died because of kindness. No one will blame you. On the contrary, once your mind changes, those who gathered because of kindness will naturally disperse because of the end of kindness."
"You are indeed unqualified, but you are the most suitable and appropriate one as the captain of all of us. You don't need to change your mind. If you are not strong enough, then become stronger. Do whatever you are needed to do. Hiding away to relieve your worries will not help at all."
Chiyou patted Li Shouyun's shoulder again and then walked down the stairs.
