Chapter 89: Team Building
"Tonight, we're going on an adventure."
As soon as the little meat bun wiped his mouth, Song Yuqing announced with a smile that tonight, all members of God’s Supermarket will have a team building event!
Little Meat Bun yawned and glanced at Song Yuqing.
See? I'm so sleepy.
Song Yuqing rubbed the little meat bun's head and said softly, "Please."
Um!
Little Meat Bun immediately opened his eyes wide and sat up straight.
"Where should we go to take risks?" Looking at the pitch-black darkness outside, Liu Xiaona felt a little timid.
"Gaha Gaha!" Gaha stretched out his fist and hit Liu Xiaona's arm, meaning, what are you afraid of, I'm a high-level zombie here!
Song Yuqing pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
"I want to take you into space and open a door together."
"Is it the door where I can see Sister Qin?" Liu Xiaona became interested.
Song Yuqing shook his head and his voice became a little weaker.
"The place I want to take you to is not a parallel world. I don't know where that door leads to."
"A new door?" Liu Xiaona blinked.
Song Yuqing shook his head again.
"No, that's the door that appeared when I first arrived at God's Supermarket."
That was the door that Song Yuqing opened when she first entered the space. Behind the door, her parents, who had turned into zombies, were gnawing on her head. Blood and brain matter mixed together and stuck to her parents' hands and mouth corners.
Gaha listened attentively to Song Yuqing's story, and with a touch of heartache, she reached out to rub Song Yuqing's head. Gaha didn't quite understand what the term "parents" meant, but she could sense a similar sentiment.
Liu Xiaona wiped her tears and said, "Even children without parents can't bear to hear this story."
The little meat bun touched his own head, then patted Liu Xiaona's head, and finally stood up and rubbed Song Yuqing's arm with his soft fur.
After Liu Xiaona and Gaha finished washing the dishes, Song Yuqing closed the shop door, took Gaha, Xiao Roubao and Liu Xiaona's hands, and walked into the space.
The supplies in the space were piled up in a messy manner, but there was order in the chaos.
The area in front of the small white door was also piled with things. After some effort, they finally moved the things away one by one, clearing the space in front of the white door.
Song Yuqing stared at the white door, feeling uneasy.
"Don't worry, we're with you. If your parents were still alive as zombies, we'd run away immediately."
Song Yuqing chuckled: "Are you afraid that you can't win?"
Liu Xiaona waved her hands repeatedly, deliberately teasing Song Yuqing: "We can't win, we are too weak."
call!
Song Yuqing took a deep breath and slowly reached out to open the white door.
"roar!"
As soon as the door opened, before he could see the world outside clearly, a loud shout made Song Yuqing retract his hand, and even his legs took a few steps back, and his heartbeat slowed down.
Liu Xiaona grinned, looking very proud.
"Liu Xiaona!" Song Yuqing pretended to be angry and nodded at Liu Xiaona.
"Gaha!" Gaha excitedly pointed outside the door and shouted.
Outside the door is a desert, or rather, a desertified city.
In the darkness, the city's outlines were blurred. The once bustling streets were now a sea of sand. It wasn't that the wind and sand had buried them, but rather that the entire city's buildings, along with the dead humans and animals, had been transformed into sand of varying coarseness and fineness.
Song Yuqing took the lead and stepped out of the space. She didn't feel any wind, nor any obvious heat.
"Wow, the desert looks like this. This is the first time I've seen it." Liu Xiaona grabbed a handful of sand from the ground curiously, and her palms felt cold.
Really? And what about ice? Why?
Liu Xiaona thought that the desert should be hot and unbearable.
"The last time I came here, you could still make out the shape of a city."
Song Yuqing took a deep breath. Things and people have changed. This can no longer be called a city ruin. It is called a city relic.
Looking around, there was no one around.
After walking for a while, they simply squatted on the ground to rest.
"It's a deserted place, with no people and no zombies."
"Perhaps, this is the current situation of most cities after the apocalypse."
Dead silence.
Song Yuqing didn't care about the sand falling into his clothes and lay down on his back.
Xiao Roubao and Gaha followed suit and looked at the night sky with Song Yuqing.
"That's the Morning Star, that's Altair, that's Vega, and that's the Big Dipper..." Song Yuqing pointed his fingers to show Xiao Roubao and Gaha.
She was talking nonsense. There was not a single star in the sky, and the only moonlight was leaking out from some crack in the sky.
"Song Yuqing, you might be like me, an orphan for the rest of your life." Liu Xiaona lowered her head and whispered, "Looking at the situation, your zombie parents probably won't be around anymore."
Liu Xiaona didn't mean to say that. He didn't want Song Yuqing to be sad, but he didn't want Song Yuqing to pin his hopes on an impossible fact.
"Yeah." Song Yuqing forced a smile and nodded obediently.
"Lie down for a while, then go back. This team building was such a bummer. I'll take you to other fun places next time."
"No, I won't spoil the fun." Liu Xiaona built a sand castle in her hand.
"Gaha!" Gaha buried his feet in the sand.
Little Meat Bun was blowing hard on his arms, trying to blow out the sand that had gotten stuck in his fur.
In the distance, from the other side of the desert, a person seemed to be approaching. From a distance, he was just a tiny dot.
Is it a human? Or a zombie?
Song Yuqing climbed up and looked at it with wide eyes.
"It seems to be an old man."
"Why is there an old man here?"
"Is there a base nearby?"
"Gah gah." It's possible.
"Haha!" That person is walking towards us, there is no doubt about it!
Song Yuqing, Liu Xiaona, Gaha and Xiao Roubao stood there, waiting for the man to slowly approach.
He was an elderly man with white hair and beard, a thin figure and a pair of bright eyes.
Those eyes were like a child's.
"How come you are here?" The old man stopped five meters away from Song Yuqing.
Song Yuqing, Gaha, Liu Xiaona and Xiao Roubao looked at each other.
"We walked here." Song Yuqing said, and Gaha, Liu Xiaona and Xiao Roubao nodded.
The old man winked at Song Yuqing in a very familiar manner.
"Click~" The old man stretched out his hand, put his index finger against his index finger, and his thumb against his thumb, and used his hand to frame a square and put it in front of his eyes.
"Family portrait!"
Song Yuqing’s first thought when he saw the old man: He’s not a zombie, that’s great!
The second thought: Where have I seen this grandpa before? Deja vu!
My third thought: Humor! Such a naughty boy! No wonder he has those bright, pure eyes.
"Old man, where are you going?" Song Yuqing stepped forward. Little Meat Bun and Gaha, not noticing any danger, followed suit.
The old man was stunned for a long time before he stroked his beard and his eyes curved.
"Let's go to Base Zero."
"Base Zero?!" Song Yuqing and Liu Xiaona were shocked.
"No way? Base Zero is nearby?"
