Chapter 071 Zombie Apocalypse 9
Wu Xuan finally learned from the people in front and behind her in the queue that the person selling low-level food was a third-level space-ability user who was specially recruited by Team Liang to join the welfare base.
She also saw that those who left from the right passage were carrying bags of food!
Boxes of instant noodles, soft bread, ten or twenty kilograms of rice and flour...
There are fruits! Apples, pears, oranges, lemons...
Some people forgot to bring bags or baskets, so they took off their clothes to wrap them up. Accidentally, a palm-sized lollipop fell out, attracting a lot of attention.
Lollipop!
Only 10 crystal cores!
If you break it up and save it, it can last for three months!
Wu Xuan could hardly breathe. She only had thirty crystal cores in her hand and could not buy so many things!
Does he have enough in stock?
Will they be sold out tonight?
Wu Xuan saw that there were not many people queuing behind her, so she gritted her teeth and ran back.
Like her, there are many people who just wait and see at first, and then run home to empty their crystal core deposits.
Xie Yunsui sat on a chair provided by someone unknown, and the light was illuminated by a candle provided by an unknown stall owner. He just had to sit there and wait for everyone to line up with crystal cores in their hands to buy supplies.
Some people have fewer crystal cores, only one or two hundred, and the first thing they ask is what the cheapest thing is.
Some people bring their families with them and have a lot of crystal cores, thousands or even tens of thousands, and there are also special crystal cores. They tell Xie Yunsui what they want like making a wish, and Xie Yunsui will give it to them based on their wishes.
Throughout the first half of the night, Xie Yunsui made a net profit of more than 300,000 crystal cores, and more than 80% of the people in the base made a trip.
Perhaps they had no more crystal cores left, and as midnight approached, the people in the queue gradually left.
Many people in the base who had stockpiled rice, flour, grain and oil at home chose to cook and have a big meal.
Because everyone has exchanged food to a greater or lesser extent, they are not afraid of being coveted by others.
Various fragrances wafted over the entire base, and dots of fire were lit, creating a New Year's atmosphere.
"Hello, I have some gold, silver, and jewelry here. Can I exchange them for some food?"
Xie Yunsui looked in the candlelight and saw that it was a girl. He had seen her twice tonight.
The first time she came, she brought her mother with her and spent two or three thousand crystal cores to buy a lot of food to take home.
The second time she brought her brother, she spent another seven or eight hundred crystal cores.
Now that everyone has left, she actually came back with her brother.
Wu Xuan was also a little embarrassed. In the apocalypse, gold, silver and jewelry had long lost their value, and currency was just a piece of waste paper. The main reason she came here was because she was nervous. She always had a bad feeling that this kind of large-scale sale of supplies would probably never happen again in the future.
Moreover, all the crystal cores brought back by my family and my brother's team have been used up.
One hundred kilograms of rice, fifty kilograms of noodles, two boxes of purified water, twenty cans of meat, ten cans of fruit, five apples, scattered hot pot base, eight-treasure porridge, candied fruit, pickled cucumbers... Most importantly, their family bought two boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs and a bottle of vitamins, and her brother also bought her two lollipops.
These supplies may seem like a lot, but they won’t last long.
In the future, supplies will become increasingly scarce unless large-scale plant production is resumed.
Wu Xuan regretted not saving more crystal cores. After much thought, she found all the gold, silver and jewelry she had brought with her when she escaped, and planned to ask, just in case it might be useful.
"These are all top-quality materials, with excellent water content. They may not be clear now, but these gold ingots are solid..."
Xie Yunsui knew that any jewelry that could be taken away during the doomsday escape must be the most valuable.
"What do you want to change?"
"Seeds, do you have any seeds here?"
In exchange for twenty bags of vegetable seeds and ten kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes as a gift, Xie Yunsui accepted all their gold, silver and jewelry.
Walking up to the dozing Wei Cheng, Xie Yunsui gently woke him up: "Thank you for your hard work."
Wei Cheng suddenly woke up: "It's okay, it's okay... Is it over?"
"Um."
Xie Yunsui gave him a bowl of still-hot vegetable noodles and asked with concern, "Are Captain Liang and the others awake?"
"No, the doctor said it might take until tomorrow morning." Wei Cheng took the noodles and found they were still warm. He was slightly surprised: "Is this also from the early days of the apocalypse?"
"Luckily, I made a batch and kept it while the water and electricity were still available."
Wei Cheng lifted the lid with satisfaction and smelled it. It had the fresh smell of noodles and the vegetables were fragrant too!
He ate while leading the way: "Brother is not awake yet, I will take you to our dormitory. There is an empty room. If you want to live alone, we have a small apartment next to it for you."
Xie Yunsui didn't refuse: "I'm a light sleeper, let's live in the apartment."
"Okay."
It’s just a small request, even if the eldest brother is here, he will probably satisfy him.
This is a treasure!
"You sold so much tonight, it won't affect you, right?" Wei Cheng inquired.
"No, I was lucky. I cleared out three large supermarkets."
Wei Cheng's eyes flickered slightly: "I still have a lot of crystal cores here, can I..."
Xie Yunsui was quite easy to talk to: "What do you want? I'll give you half price."
He really knows how to behave!
He looks quite capable and easy to talk to. How did Big Brother find this person?
Wei Cheng happily spent money to buy a lot of wine. He liked this kind of wine before the end of the world, but it was a pity that the wine was hard to come by.
He exchanged all his savings for wine, but not for food. After all, this third-level space ability user would be their teammate in the future. Why would he still worry about food?
That night, Wei Cheng opened two cans of beer as a base, mixed the white and red beer together, and drank them all in one go.
The next day, when Liang Hongyu slapped him twice and woke him up, asking him where Xie Yunsui had gone, he was still too drunk to speak: "Ah? Ah... next door, next door to him..."
Liang Hongyu searched the next door, the next door, and the entire base, but could not find any trace of Xie Yunsui.
"Brother!" someone rushed in and said, "Lin Qi sent someone over here. He said all the materials for developing bombs in the lab are gone!"
Liang Hongyu:!!!
After finishing his work, Xie Yunsui went straight back to the convenience store along the passage of Wanjie Shop without even spending the night at the West District Base.
The two new shop assistants slept between two shelves on the first floor, covering themselves with their coats.
They found that the store was super safe. There were so many Venus flytraps outside, but not a single one dared to stick its trap in, so they slept on the floor with confidence.
Xie Yunsui didn't disturb them and went upstairs to his nominal bedroom.
The income tonight was quite good, and Xie Yunsui planned to use all the zombie crystal cores he obtained tonight to feed Xiao Wan.
As soon as he entered the Wanjie Shop, Xie Yunsui keenly noticed that Xiao Wan's energy consumption rate was slowing down.
Specifically, the energy previously dropped by 10 points per second, but now it has become 9 points.
"Xiao Wan?" Xie Yunsui tried to call the Wanjie Shop.
After waiting for a while without any response, he transformed the 300,000 zombie crystal cores he had collected tonight into energy supplements, replenishing 30 million energies at once.
Perhaps sensing that there was sufficient energy, there was finally some response from the Wanjie Shop.
The current world is collapsing
collapse?
"Oh, I know that!" The little bee flew over: "The second shop owner said that when development reaches a certain level, the world will evolve."
"But evolution requires opportunity, and not every world has this opportunity."
"Also, sometimes, evolution isn't a good thing. Some worlds evolve smoothly, complementing the world's creatures and eventually evolving successfully. This is rare."
This reminded Xie Yunsui of the first deserted island world, where there was also a world shock.
The opportunity in the deserted island world is Xie Yunsui, because of his arrival, every seed pit can be planted with ginseng that possesses energy.
Ginseng absorbs energy from the earth, and mature ginseng feeds energy back to the world, which is how it can evolve.
However, when Xie Yunsui encountered the world evolution for the first time, he didn't quite understand it, and in panic, the evolution of the deserted island world failed. After making up for it, the evolution was successful.
"Most evolving worlds will eventually collapse." Little Bee played back Fairy Wei Ling's words while petting the cat. She spoke calmly, "Because the creatures in this world don't understand evolution, they will regard every change as a disaster. They don't have the ability to deal with it."
"A disaster?" Xie Yunsui forced an ugly smile.
In the face of any world-class disaster, living beings are helpless.
He was originally one of the helpless creatures, and only when he was in it did he know how difficult it was.
Until it is bound by the Wanjie Shop.
Xie Yunsui suddenly realized that the Wanjie Shop's continuous energy expenditure might be an attempt to prevent the world from collapsing.
The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.
Originally, Liang Hongyu would bring an unexpected and devastating blow to the Central District tonight.
Those mutated green plants occupied the entire Area C, and no living creatures survived except them.
More than 200,000 people were consumed at one time. It’s not that only this many people can be consumed, but that this is the only number of people in Area C at present.
What happens next? Will the mutated plants take over even more territory, until they wipe out all life?
Xie Yunsui felt a little regretful that he had only beaten Liang Hongyu.
It’s better to make it into a puppet!
There is still no trace of Xiaoxi, but Xie Yunsui doesn't have that much time to look for her. He has to find a way to deal with the green forest in the central area.
With such a "C Zone Scavenger" around, Xiaoxi's safety is even more unsafe.
He looked up Liang Hongyu's life experience again and carefully examined the movements of the Venus flytraps and pitcher plants when the bomb exploded.
According to experience, these green plants should have a "leader".
If an attack would lead to a counterattack, then the Venus flytraps that Xie Yunsui had eliminated these days should have occupied Area C long ago.
Unless he was dealing with an insignificant "little brother".
The distribution of the bombs is very regular. The explosion area of one bomb is only this large. After several adjustments, Liang Hongyu decided that the explosion areas of the five bombs had almost no overlap.
The area is so vast that it is difficult to tell where the main body is at first glance.
When the Venus flytraps and pitcher plants decided to strike back, Xie Yunsui noticed that they seemed to be flourishing from the convenience store...
No, it’s the apartment building next to the convenience store!
