(Looking for recommendations)
The next morning, I left the newly found phone in my suitcase and didn't think much of it.
Because I had been on watch until dawn last night, I fell asleep on the bed after the watch ended. When I woke up, it was already lunchtime.
I came out of the room and saw that Sister Jing and the others had already prepared lunch.
"Xiaonan, you're awake. It's time for dinner. Come on over," Sister Jing said with a smile.
I glanced at the food on the table and was surprised to see white rice. I asked, "Sister Jing, where did you get this white rice?"
Sister Jing laughed and said, "I didn't make this. Xiao Yun found it when she was out wandering around. Then we also found a gas cylinder in another house, so we just used the gas to cook."
"Great! I haven't had rice in ages."
I chuckled, went outside to brush my teeth first, and then came back to eat.
White rice may not have much flavor, but after not eating it for a long time, I always feel a bit nostalgic. A bowl of it is quite satisfying.
Jingjie asked, "What are your plans for this afternoon? Are you going to town?"
I nodded and said, "Let's make some preparations here for the next couple of days. This afternoon, Xiaoyun and I will go to town to see if we can get a car. Our current food will only last for five or six days at most, so it's good to get more food so we can make the long journey and avoid having nothing to eat when we get to the wilderness."
"And I also want to see if there are any tents available. If so, I'll get a few. We'll definitely need them for long treks in the future."
Jingjie received the message: "Okay, then you and Xiaoyun be careful. Fei Lichao and I will look around here and see if we can find anything useful."
"Okay, it's settled then. Xiaoyun and I will be back before 5 p.m., and I'll contact you directly if there are any problems then."
...
Around 1 p.m., Lu Yun and I set off by car to the entrance of the town not far away.
The township clinic is not far away.
As for the entrance to the town, there were still quite a few zombies lingering around. After we parked the car here, the zombies lingering at the town entrance also came closer.
After we got off the bus, I said directly, "Xiaoyun, you take care of these zombies first. I'll go to the clinic and get the rest of the useful stuff. Wait for me here, and don't wander off, okay?"
Lu Yun glanced at me impatiently and said, "Okay, go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
I ran into the clinic.
When I first came to the clinic, I was looking for Sister Jing, so I didn't care about anything here. Now that we've been exiled, the medical supplies here are very important to us. No matter what happens in the future, we'll always catch a cold or get a fever, so medicine is essential.
When I arrived at the pharmacy, I packed all the medicines and medical supplies into my backpack. Since it was just a rural clinic, the medicines there were for common illnesses, so they were very useful to us.
After spending ten minutes checking the entire township clinic and finding nothing else of value, I finally came out.
Lu Yun, who was waiting outside, was getting impatient. She had killed all the zombies at the entrance, and they were all lying on the ground.
At that moment, Lu Yun was sitting in the car, smoking.
I was stunned when I saw her smoking.
A hint of panic flashed in Lu Yun's eyes, but she quickly turned her head away and continued smoking, saying nonchalantly, "Why did you take so long to come out!"
"You smoke?" I asked.
Lu Yun tossed away the cigarette butt she had finished smoking, came up to me, and said with a serious look in her eyes, "You're not allowed to tell my sister that I smoke, understand?"
I nodded with a wry smile.
"Hmph, is everything sorted out inside?" Lu Yun asked with a cold snort.
"It's all settled. Let's go, let's go into town and take a look."
We drove into the town, and as soon as we entered, the number of zombies around us increased. The sound of the car engine perfectly attracted these zombies, and in no time, they had completely surrounded the car, making it impossible for us to move an inch.
I turned off the engine, looked at Lu Yun, and smiled, "It's up to you now."
"What a nuisance." Lu Yun rolled her eyes at me, pulled out two iron bars from behind her, opened the car door and got out. Then, she started walking away, tapping the iron bars. Before long, she had lured away all the zombies around the car.
Instead of continuing to drive the car forward, I got out of the car.
Since we've arrived in the center of town, this should be the most bustling area. There are many shops around, and a tall building stands there, which must contain a large supermarket.
Lu Yun, who had lured the zombies away, returned shortly afterward.
I said, "I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you with something else."
Lu Yun looked at the building in front of her, then looked at me helplessly and said, "So you want me to go inside and find a tent?"
I nodded. "Well, there's nothing we can do. Only you have this skill. If you can't find a tent, bring out more food. It's okay to make a few more trips. Anyway, it's still early."
Lu Yun stared at me and said, "How can you be such a jerk! I'm a girl, can't you just give in to me?"
I raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Why don't you go find a car?"
Lu Yun stared at me, snorted, and decisively turned and went into the building.
I drew the machete from my waist, glanced at the cars parked on the side of the road, and slowly walked over.
Many of the car windows were closed, and there were no owners inside. It would be easy to open these cars by smashing the windows, but what use would I be if the windows were already broken? So there's no point in bringing these cars over.
What I need is a car that will allow me to sleep soundly at night.
As for the so-called lock picking, I don't know how.
I walked along with my machete, killing many zombies and looking at many cars, some of which had zombies inside, but all of them were completely destroyed.
I walked for about a hundred meters but still couldn't find a suitable car.
"Hey, are we really going to smash the car?"
I'm a little hesitant; I really don't want to do this.
"Xiaonan, Xiaonan, are you there?"
Just then, the walkie-talkie hanging on her waist suddenly rang, and Sister Jing's voice came from it.
I picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Sister Jing, what's up?"
Sister Jing said, "You don't need to look for a car anymore. We found one nearby, so come back after you find the tent. Oh, and take plenty of food with you."
"Okay, I understand."
I gave a wry smile. I didn't expect that Sister Jing would find a car first. But that's fine too, I don't have to waste my time here.
I turned around and walked back.
However, at that moment, I suddenly sensed a sense of danger coming from not far away.
call out!
when!
Suddenly, a pebble flew towards me at high speed, but I was a step too slow. The pebble grazed past my eyes and landed on a car next to me.
