"The sky has fallen and the earth has caved in!"
The sky was gloomy, filled with the mournful cries of blood.
With a roar, the earth trembled violently.
Everyone staggered and rolled on the ground. Even more terrifying, sinkholes appeared in the ground, and those who had been at each other's throats just moments before were swallowed up as there was no way to escape.
The people on the Ping'an City side were all frightened by this situation, but Cheng Shanshan remained coldly watching the other side from beginning to end. This earthquake was exactly the same as before, except that she was on the opposite bank at the time.
The sight of rivers of blood and corpses strewn across the fields was the worst nightmare she had ever had in a long time.
After things calmed down, Bai took her hand, her voice trembling slightly, and asked, "Shanshan, does this mean everything is alright now?"
"Yes, yes, it's because even God couldn't stand those people bullying us women, so He took them all away."
"That's great, scum should go to hell."
"Sisters, we don't need to be afraid anymore."
"..."
She really wanted to say that everything was alright.
But I really can't say it.
Because she knew that after the earthquake came the plague, and after the plague came the zombies!
That will be the true beginning of hell on earth...
Seeing that she didn't speak, Bai thought she was injured: "Shanshan, what's wrong?" As she spoke, she quickly and carefully checked her body.
Cheng Shanshan waved her hand: "I'm fine." Then she stood up and looked around: "Is everyone alright?"
"without."
The group responded with a single word.
Then they looked at each other and all stood up and knelt down in front of Cheng Shanshan: "We are deeply grateful and need no thanks. Shanshan, you will be our benefactor from now on. No matter what, we will remember this kindness."
They are not heartless.
I just have absolutely no idea what to do.
This time, they witnessed firsthand how Cheng Shanshan saved them, even risking her own life.
Cheng Shanshan quickly told them to get up: "There's no need for that, everyone."
"No, we have to kowtow to you."
"Yes, yes, if it weren't for you, Ping An City would be gone, and we would all be gone too."
In fact, Cheng Shanshan doesn't need this kind of gratitude. After all, she feels that she is a selfish person at heart, and everything she does now is mostly for herself.
But seeing everyone like this now still touches my heart.
As she watched the noise fade into silence across the street, she vaguely saw a tall figure carrying a petite woman on his back. They glanced in her direction and made a throat-slitting gesture.
...
That night.
After this ordeal, the city has temporarily returned to peace.
However, to prevent the other party from making a comeback, she decided to plan carefully.
Bai brought in a bowl of hot soup: "Shanshan, this is the egg I secretly hid before. I added some bok choy to make this soup for you. Drink some while it's hot to replenish your energy."
"Thank you, Mother."
Cheng Shanshan put down her pen.
After eating something warm, I definitely felt much better.
Looking at her, Bai Shi's eyes were full of worry: "You've been busy day and night these past few days, and you've lost weight. If Xiao Huo saw this, he would be just as heartbroken as I am."
"he……"
Cheng Shanshan's heart tightened.
I guess they're having a tough time, right?
Bai sighed, "When will this ever end?"
"It will be alright."
Cheng Shanshan's words were not only directed at the Bai family.
At the same time, she was telling herself that she had to get things back on track!
The next morning, she summoned everyone and, after roughly counting the number of people, divided them into three groups: one group was responsible for three meals a day, another group was responsible for cultivating the fields every day, and of course, she specially selected some strong-looking people to be in charge of guard duty.
After this incident, everyone cooperated very well.
After glancing at it, she asked, "I need three people to lead and direct these three things to go smoothly. Do you have any good candidates?"
"command?"
"To put it simply, of these three things I'm talking about, who is the most capable?"
"If it's cooking, Liu Mei."
"In terms of farming strength, Tiger Girl is undoubtedly the best."
"If it's for duty, how about Night Owl Yun Chen?"
"Liu Mei, Hu Niu, Yun Chen."
Cheng Shanshan glanced at them, full of curiosity: "Which three are they?"
"I."
A burly woman stepped forward.
She didn't look very old, but she was incredibly strong. She raised her chin and said, "Tiger Girl is me, I am Tiger Girl. I can do everything, whether it's farming or anything else. Just give me anything."
"I am Liu Mei." Liu Mei was a middle-aged woman with a smile on her face. "Oh dear, you all suddenly pushed me forward, which makes me a little embarrassed. Actually, I don't know much, but I used to cook for hundreds of people in the kitchens of several large houses. If you don't mind, I'm willing to take on the task."
"Yun Chen".
Concise and to the point.
Cheng Shanshan looked over.
She was a woman with a very clean-cut appearance, her face as pale as if it had no color in it.
As she looked over, Yun Chen also happened to be looking at her, and the two of them locked eyes and fell silent.
After a moment, she smiled slightly: "Yun Chen looks very capable."
"Of course she's amazing. Don't let her thin and weak appearance fool you. She used to run a security escort agency in the capital. She's been traveling all over the country for years and is now invincible. She only came back because of the disaster outside."
“There was a village bully here who led a group of henchmen to bully a young girl. Yun Chen took on more than a dozen strong men and beat them all to the ground.”
"Yes, yes, that time left a deep impression on me."
These people's words made Cheng Shanshan re-examine Yun Chen. She found it hard to believe that such a thin appearance could hide such great strength, and she couldn't help but admire him.
Yun Chen looked at her, his voice somewhat cold: "Let's make this clear beforehand. I can lead the team to defend the city, but I must set the rules, and the people must listen to me."
Cheng Shanshan smiled faintly: "That's natural."
"Alright then."
Yun Chen agreed.
Now we have a kitchen, farming, and guards.
To make it more formal, she even made a detailed plan.
After staying up all night, she was the first to find Yun Chen.
Cheng Shanshan presented the plan to her: "Yun Chen, what do you think of this?"
Yun Chen didn't look at her, but frowned and asked, "Why are you asking me?"
"Maybe it's just a connection at first sight?"
Cheng Shanshan looked at her with a smile on her face: "Maybe it's because they know you're a very capable person, so you're the first person they thought of asking."
She has been lonely for too long.
I really need a partner.
Clearly, Yun Chen in front of her is the best choice. If she can be with him, the road ahead will be smoother.
