The two walked for another four hours and were quite far from the mountains where they had previously settled. Xu Lin looked back and could vaguely see that the mountains where she had planned to live for a while had lost their former lush greenery.
There are regrets, but life goes on. The end times won't spare you just because you're pitiful; they'll only keep moving forward and wipe you out. So, being melancholic and sentimental is the worst thing you can do.
Shuke and Beta were also released by Xu Lin. After all, having experienced the apocalypse, they should broaden their horizons.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the two left the suburbs and entered the city. This should be a city in the northern province. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, there were ruins everywhere, and the former prosperity could be vaguely seen.
“There’s a highway ahead where we take turns driving, and we walk where we can’t drive,” Zhou Pin said.
Xu Lin took out an SUV from her spatial storage, and Zhou Pin drove it, letting Xu Lin rest first.
Although the ride was bumpier with four wheels, the efficiency was significantly improved. After driving for only 20 minutes, a large rock blocked their path. Xu Lin immediately stored the rock in her spatial storage and continued on her way without stopping.
When they encountered a crack, the two would put the car into their spatial storage, set up an iron plate, walk across, then put the iron plate away and release the car to continue driving; when they encountered an obstacle, they would put the obstacle into their spatial storage. Occasionally, Xu Lin would also conveniently put one or two useful items into her spatial storage.
The two traveled all night and finally reached the mountain. To be precise, it was a mountain range that stretched endlessly.
The two hurried up the mountain. The mountain affected by the earthquake was dangerous and difficult to climb, but fortunately, the mountain was covered with lush vegetation and had suffered relatively little damage from the previous natural disaster. Even so, the two dared not relax their vigilance at all.
They climbed until dark before finding a relatively flat spot to lower the container and rest.
At four o'clock the next morning, just as dawn broke, the two began climbing the mountain and continued until noon. Xu Lin collected all the Chinese medicinal herbs and fruit trees they encountered along the way.
After a quick lunch of boxed food, we continued climbing. Because the earthquake had caused the mountain to become unstable, we almost fell several times.
Fearing danger, Shuke and Beta were each led by a hand by Zhou Pin and Xu Lin. Fortunately, this action saved Xu Lin and Zhou Pin several times.
At nine o'clock in the evening, they finally reached the top of the mountain without any major incidents. Xu Lin immediately took out the container, and the two of them, along with the dog, went into the space through the container. After washing up, they lay down and went to sleep.
I slept until 8 a.m. the next day, and finally got a good rest.
The two took their breakfast out of the space and ate it inside the container. They ate congee with preserved egg and lean pork and hand-pulled pancakes, both of which were their favorites.
After finishing breakfast, the two came out of the container, preparing to collect a batch of goods before the tsunami hit.
They had already seen it on the way up the mountain. The mountain was covered with lush vegetation and had a wide variety of species. It was practically a great place to stock up on supplies in the post-apocalyptic world. If it weren't for the tsunami, the two of them didn't know how long it would have taken before they could set foot on this mountain range.
Having learned from their previous experience, the two first secured the container to the ground, and then stored the surrounding plants, trees, and stones into their space to prevent the container from being destroyed in the event of a disaster.
Zhou Pin used his binoculars to observe the distant sea and predicted that the tsunami would occur in the next day or two.
The two secured the container, and Zhou Pin reinstalled the surveillance system. He then modified the container according to the actual situation, installing water purification equipment, air purification equipment, and a kitchen inside, turning the container into a post-apocalyptic war machine.
It's no exaggeration to say that putting wheels on a shipping container creates a doomsday vehicle.
