Chapter 42 An unexpected surprise
The roar of zombies was heard in the distance. Liang Yingsheng hurried back to the garage and worked together with Liang Zhimo to pull down the rolling door. Feeling uneasy, he took out a cabinet from the space and placed it against the door.
There is a wooden door at the back of the garage. It is not locked. When you push it open, there is a flight of stairs leading directly to the second floor.
He gave a flashlight to Liang Zhimo, and the two of them went upstairs carefully, one in front and the other behind.
The second floor has three bedrooms and a living room. The things in the house are in a mess, and there is a zombie locked in the toilet.
Liang Yingsheng didn't take any action. He watched Liang Zhimo get rid of the zombie. The brother and sister sat on the sofa to rest for a while and continued to search for useful things.
Liang Yingsheng also kept electrical appliances, some solid wood furniture, bedding and pillows, so that he could exchange them for supplies with others when a cold wave comes in the future.
After all, they run a restaurant, so this family has stockpiled a lot of condiments.
Perhaps the looters thought the items were not life-saving and did not take them away.
Liang Yingsheng also found several bags of dog food in the balcony storage cabinet.
Those people are really blind. Although dog food is food for dogs, it has high nutritional value.
Liang Yingsheng knew the brand of these dog foods, which were quite famous, made with pure natural ingredients, mixed with purple sweet potatoes and chicken.
You know, in the simulator, dog food is more valuable than sweet potatoes, and ten kilograms of sweet potatoes can be exchanged for one kilogram of dog food.
Moreover, after the factory was completely scrapped, no one produced this thing, and it would be gone once it was eaten.
After searching all the houses, the two went downstairs, took out wire, tied and locked the wooden door, and then returned to the RV.
Liang Yingsheng took some commonly used items and put them in the RV, filled the refrigerator with food, and prepared the sheets and quilts for the bunk beds. Then he entered the space with Liang Zhimo.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and the two were already starving.
Although the space allowed for cooking, Liang Yingsheng didn't want to eat the prepared food, so he gave Liang Zhimo a Snickers bar to fill his stomach before cooking. He then took his clean clothes and prepared to take a shower.
Liang Zhimo inherited his cooking skills from his father, and the food he cooks is particularly delicious.
Dinner consisted of one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and sauerkraut vermicelli soup.
Liang Yingsheng finished two bowls of soup and felt like he was finally alive. "If there weren't the apocalypse, I strongly suggest you quit your job at the hospital and open a restaurant."
Liang Zhimo couldn't help but expose: "It's convenient for you to come and eat every day, right?"
Liang Yingsheng said without a trace of guilt: "You are my brother, so what if I eat a few meals with you?"
"Sister, you couldn't find a boyfriend before the apocalypse. Now that it's here, won't it be even harder for you to find one?"
Feeling that he was laughing at her, Liang Yingsheng gave a forced smile and said, "Say it again if you dare."
"Ahem, just something that comes to mind."
"Hmph, what kind of man do you want? Do you want a man to have rice and pork to eat? Do you want a man to not have to worry about being bitten by zombies? I don't care if I have to feed him even though he's useless."
Liang Zhimo felt ashamed and secretly felt lucky that he was Liang Yingsheng's biological brother.
"I'll wash the dishes after dinner. The sheep pen isn't strong enough, so go and reinforce it."
Liang Yingsheng ordered.
From now on, this space will be their hometown. They can come in and live here whenever they want, so they have to make it look nice.
"Sister, why don't you stay in the space all the time?"
Liang Yingsheng asked back, "Do you want to live here forever?"
"No, the existence of space is not to make us deserters, but to help us in times of need."
That is an existence that defies the will of heaven and may disappear at any time.
"Everyone is trying to adapt to the end of the world. If we just hide away, we will be completely disconnected from the world and humanity."
Liang Yingsheng smiled and ruffled Liang Zhimo's short hair. "Not bad, you've grown up."
“…”
We are all the same age, you are just a few minutes older than me.
In fact, to be honest, Liang Zhimo is more mature than Liang Yingsheng in some aspects. He is a leader among medical students. From elementary school to university, he has always been among the top three in the class.
Out of habit, he stays awake at all times.
"The end of the world is difficult, and this space is our only support. Your parents are old, so just let them stay here. You need to improve your physical fitness as soon as possible."
If he were to ask himself honestly, Liang Zhimo felt that his health was not that bad, it was just that Liang Yingsheng was too abnormal.
But then again, his sister has been reborn so many times in the simulator, so she must have developed the skill.
After washing the dishes, Liang Yingsheng took a hoe and went to dig the ground. This time she planned to plant some strawberries and watermelons. She had bought a mature pomelo tree before. When she planted it, the pomelo was only the size of a fist, but now it has grown a lot bigger. She estimated that it would be ready to eat in ten days or half a month.
Well, by the way, I pulled the grape vines.
Fruits are vitamins and cannot be lacking.
Liang Zhimo finished his work quickly and came over to help Liang Yingsheng dig the ground and sow seeds.
"I remember there are a lot of wild medicinal herbs on the hill behind the old house. When we get back, let's dig some up and plant them in the ground. The soil in the space is fertile, so we can get twice the result with half the effort no matter what we plant."
Liang Yingsheng had no knowledge of herbal medicine, so he decisively gave such a difficult task to Liang Zhimo alone.
After a busy day, it was not until the early morning that the two of them washed up and went back to their rooms to rest.
Fearing that something might happen outside, Liang Yingsheng got up after six o'clock. After quickly tidying up, Liang Zhimo had already come out of the kitchen with breakfast.
"Sister, how about some buns for lunch? Just put them in the refrigerator in the RV and heat them up in the microwave."
As they were in a hurry to travel, they didn't have much time to cook, so Liang Yingsheng took a few buckets of instant noodles and the two of them returned to the RV.
There are no windows in the garage, but through the gap in the rolling door you can tell that it is already daybreak outside.
Liang Yingsheng held the horsewhip and Liang Zhimo was responsible for opening the door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, a pair of bloody feet suddenly came into view. Fortunately, the two were prepared and were not scared.
The gap in the door was getting bigger and bigger. Liang Yingsheng quickly took out a piece of raw meat and threw it outside. Sure enough, the feet ran away.
Liang Zhimo took the opportunity to quickly open the shutter door. Hearing the noise, he picked up the raw meat that the zombie was gnawing on and pounced on it.
It was dressed in rags, with not an inch of intact skin on its body. Its lips were bitten off, and the flesh at the wound had completely rotted away.
“That’s disgusting.”
Liang Yingsheng couldn't help but complain, and raised his whip and lashed at the zombie the moment it approached him.
The horsewhip was like a sharp blade, splitting the zombie's head in half.
Even though he was used to this scene, Liang Zhimo couldn't help but touch his head.
He had tried the horsewhip before, and although it had been improved, it was not so powerful that it could split a person's head with one whip.
So, how strong is his sister? Did the simulator cause her genetic mutation?
As if seeing through Liang Zhimo's thoughts, Liang Yingsheng said arrogantly: "Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend."
After being reborn so many times and suffering so much, how can I not get some benefits?
“…”
The car continued to move forward. As Liang Yingsheng had thought, the national highway was indeed much safer than the expressway. On the road, one could still encounter fleeing vehicles and survivors on foot.
From time to time, you can also run into zombies eating.
Maybe, ask for a monthly ticket?
