Seeing Wang Bin gazing at the city below with a heavy heart, the others were puzzled, wondering why he was like this.
"Sister Miao, what's wrong with Brother Wang?" Guan Xiaoyue asked cautiously.
"He's considering whether or not to move to the city," Officer Miao said after a moment's thought.
"Ah, go into the city? If you want to, just go. Why think so much?"
"You don't even think about it. There are so many of us. If we go into the city, we might encounter danger."
"Then let's not go into the city!"
“If we don’t go into the city, where will we get our food? You don’t think our food just appears out of thin air, do you? It’s all obtained by Wang Bin through the exchange of gold and jewelry.”
"Oh, I see!"
While Officer Miao and Guan Xiaoyue were chatting, everyone listened quietly. It was truly a dilemma.
Entering the city might be dangerous, but without entering the city, how could they exchange gold and jewelry for food?
"Sister Miao, you've already told Brother Wang that we'll go into the city with him to look for gold."
“Abao is right. Everything we have now was given to us by Uncle Wang. What’s wrong with us going into the city with him and taking a little risk? Besides, we’re not newbies, and we have guns. What are we afraid of?”
"Xiao Miao, you should talk to Wang Bin. We can protect ourselves, so tell him not to worry."
"Yes, Master!"
Actually, for Officer Miao, being able to help Wang Bin was a very happy thing, after all, he had done so much for them. However, this matter concerned everyone's safety, so she couldn't make a decision for everyone arbitrarily. Now, hearing everyone's words, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, gave everyone a grateful smile, and walked towards Wang Bin.
"Wang Bin, are you still thinking about this?"
"Okay, I've decided. We'll take a detour. Safety comes first for everyone."
As he said these words, Wang Bin felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his chest, and he felt completely relieved.
Gold is important, but human life is also important. Besides, he has always valued loyalty and friendship. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given You Hongfei and Li Xingping, who had helped him, 1 million yuan as soon as he left, and later gave them shares to open a shop together and bought them sports cars.
For him, money is important, but friends and brotherhood are even more important.
With his current funds and gold, it would be easy for him to live a life of luxury in the real world.
Currently, all we need to do is find a gathering place where everyone's safety is guaranteed, and then we can exchange food for gold.
Officer Miao was surprised that Wang Bin would suggest taking a detour, and his goodwill towards Wang Bin immediately rose to another level.
"It's alright, we've already discussed it, and everyone supports you going into the city. We'll all help you collect the gold." Officer Miao smiled faintly and placed his hand on Wang Bin's arm.
"Ah!" Wang Bin was very surprised when he heard this. He turned around and looked at everyone, only to find that everyone was looking at him and laughing.
"But it's dangerous for everyone to go into the city together like this!"
"It's a bit dangerous. How about this, we'll find a place to settle them down first, and Uncle Li can protect them. Xiaoyue and I will go into the city with you to scout out the situation. Do you think my idea is okay?"
"Hmm, that's a good idea. Let's go down the mountain tomorrow and find a place for Uncle Li and the others to stay. The three of us will go to the city to find out more before making a decision."
"Um!"
After the two finished their discussion, they strode towards everyone, and Wang Bin told them the result of their discussion.
Originally, A Bao and Xiao Nan wanted to go into the city with them, but Wang Bin stopped them. After all, they were still young, and if they left, the only one who could actually shoot would be Li Chengping, who was not mobile.
After this period of training, A Bao and Xiao Nan's marksmanship has improved significantly. Staying behind can help Uncle Li with defense. As long as they don't encounter a large group of zombies or many armed people, they should be able to hold the line without any problems.
After the tents were set up, everyone started making dinner. After dinner, Wang Bin took out a guitar from his system space and said with a smile, "Would you like to hear some guitar music?"
"think!"
"Wow, Uncle Wang, I want to hear it! I want to hear it!"
"Brother Wang, you're amazing! You can even play the guitar!"
"Wang Bin, you're amazing!"
"I'm telling you beforehand, I've only been learning for two years, so please don't scold me if I don't play well!"
"Of course you can, just play it!"
Wang Bin hummed in agreement, gently strummed the guitar to test the sound, and after finding no problems, began to play.
Wang Bin played the classic "Hotel California," and soon everyone was immersed in the sound of the guitar, carefully feeling everything that the song was trying to express.
Apart from Wang Bin, only Officer Miao knew a little about music. But as the saying goes, music knows no borders. Although they couldn't understand Wang Bin's English, they could all feel that the melody of the piece was beautiful, yet also a little melancholic.
Slowly, slowly, everyone became immersed in Wang Bin's guitar playing. Apart from Wang Bin's performance, the only other sound was the occasional crackling of the campfire.
The song was so long that people lost track of time. When Wang Bin finally stopped, he realized that everyone was staring blankly ahead, seemingly lost in thought.
Wang Bin originally just wanted to show off his playing skills by playing the classic song "Hotel California," but he didn't expect that this song would evoke everyone's memories, and he felt a little regretful.
People are struggling to survive in this apocalyptic world, so we should give them more joy.
"Shall I play another cheerful tune for everyone?"
"Ah, um!" Officer Miao originally wanted to ask what the piece of music was called, but seeing everyone's expressions, he understood Wang Bin's intention, so he just hummed in response and didn't say anything more.
Next, Wang Bin played several songs with good melodies, including "The Moon Represents My Heart" and "Descendants of the Dragon," which captivated the audience.
Especially A Bao and Wang Nan, who ran over and sat next to Wang Bin, asking him to teach them to play. Wang Bin smiled faintly and agreed. Anyway, he was just killing time, and it would be a bit awkward not to do something late at night.
Time passed slowly, the stars in the sky twinkled and then gradually faded. What a beautiful night this would have been if it weren't for the zombies.
Even though everyone was staying on the mountaintop, two people were still assigned to stand guard. In order to allow Wang Bin and the other two to get a good rest, Li Chengping volunteered to take the second half of the night shift. Wang Bin appreciated his kindness and then took out a large pack of Chongjiu liquor from his system space and handed it to him.
"Ah, Wang Bin, I still had more than half left last time!"
"It's okay, just keep smoking, I have more here!"
"Thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chengping immediately accepted with a smile.
In the real world, Wang Bin would definitely owe Li Chengping a favor by smoking less for his health, but this is the apocalypse, and he wouldn't do that. Nobody knows what the future holds, so smoking is a kind of solace.
