Chapter 8 Stockpiling of Goods
The residents on both sides of the alley also noticed the difference tonight. They secretly looked out through the curtains, and after seeing Ripple bravely killing zombies, they opened their mouths in shock, but no one was willing to lend a helping hand.
Messages were released on television, radio, and Weibo saying that this was a virus attack, asking everyone to stay home and not go out casually. Once the cause is found, the public will be informed.
Everyone was waiting slowly in anxiety and fear. It was the third day of the apocalypse. There was food at home and they could hold on for a while, so watching Wu Lianyi was like watching a murderer.
Just when the edge of the kitchen knife Wu Lianyi was swinging was curling, she finally arrived at the shopping mall. As she expected, the door of the mall was closed.
Only the small houses on one side of the entrance were destroyed. This row of seven small shops all sold snacks and were built on the outside of the first floor.
Wu Lianyi looked at another wave of zombies rushing over and inserted the kitchen knife into her backpack, actually putting it into space. Then she decisively stepped on the isolation pier in front of the mall gate, jumped onto the top of the small shop, and then with another jump, she grabbed the window sill of the floor-to-ceiling glass on the second floor.
She pushed her right foot against the uneven wall, then exerted a little force and climbed her elbows onto the window sill. She then took out a curled-edge kitchen knife from behind her, turned it around, and hit the floor-to-ceiling glass with the handle of the knife.
The "pa pa" sound traveled particularly far in the silent night and attracted more attention. Lianyi had excellent hearing, and when she hit it for the second time with all her strength, she heard a "crack" sound of shattering.
She immediately stopped hitting the glass and moved to a corner of the floor-to-ceiling window. Then, she used all her strength to swing the curled-edge kitchen knife directly towards the crack. With a "crash", the glass shattered completely. The falling glass pierced the head of the zombie wandering below, killing two zombies.
The glass broke, and Wu Lianyi immediately hooked the window sill with her left foot and slowly pushed herself inside.
Suddenly, a blue face came in front of Lianyi. She smelled the fishy smell on the other person after she broke the glass. Moreover, the middle-aged man was wearing a security uniform. He was obviously on night shift. He had been wandering here since he turned into a zombie and he definitely had not eaten anything.
Lianyi had a cold face. When the opponent's fangs approached her neck, she used her left foot and right hand to fix herself on the window sill. Then she pinched the opponent's neck with her left hand, and with a clever force, she pulled the opponent out and threw him into the group of zombies still wandering below.
With a "bang", the zombie security guard knocked down four or five zombies with outstretched claws. After completing his mission, he was completely killed.
Lianyi then climbed into the mall and dragged over two sections of counters from the side to block the broken glass. She did not rush to search for things, but listened for a while. After making sure that there were no other zombies or people, she started to act.
The first place they went to was the large supermarket on the underground floor. There was a complete range of goods here, and they were all daily consumables and indispensable. Wu Lianyi didn't hesitate to take them into the space along with the shelves. These things were placed in rows in the black area.
The fruit and vegetable section, the meat section, the non-staple food section, the beverage section, and the daily chemical products section, as long as her eyes could see, she collected them all. Then she went to the first floor, where there were gold and silver jewelry and high-end cosmetics, all of which she collected.
Then came the women's clothing section on the second floor. Although it was summer now, Lianyi did not mind and collected everything. She collected all the luggage on the third floor, the men's clothing on the fourth floor, the home appliances on the fifth floor, the household goods on the sixth floor, the sportswear on the seventh floor, and the food floor on the eighth floor. She did not miss any of them.
The most important thing was that she saw a decorative long sword hanging on the wall in the member center office in the corner of the seventh floor. The moment the sword was unsheathed, she showed a sincere smile.
This is her natal sword, and it came with her to this doomsday. It is the benefit she fought for for a long time with the group of men in black suits, and it is the only physical object she can bring into the mission world.
"My old friend Lei Yao, we meet again!"
Lianyi smiled and made a sword flower. A cold light flashed on the sword, as if responding to her words. A slight sword sound indicated that the sword was in a good mood.
Lianyi felt that all the supplies in the entire building were not as valuable as her sword. This was a weapon that matched her spiritual roots and was more useful than a curled-edge kitchen knife.
Her consciousness sank into the space and she found that the black space was already half filled. With these things as a foundation, she felt a lot more at ease. She was not going to take the things in the warehouse away, but leave them to the people nearby. One should not be too drastic in anything.
Next, she wanted to get some more weapons and a vehicle for transportation, which should be available in the mall’s underground parking lot.
Lianyi did what she said. Holding the sword in her hand, she walked down the stairs one floor at a time. When she reached the underground parking lot, she heard the unique "wheezing" sound of zombies, as well as a woman's scolding and a man's exclamation.
Lianyi immediately held the sword in his hand and moved quietly towards the sound.
I happened to see a man and a woman being besieged by zombies. The woman was waving a wooden stick in front, while the man was hiding behind the woman, screaming from time to time, which made the zombies chase him even more closely.
Lianyi's mouth twitched when she saw this. The saying "yin is strong and yang is weak" is really not just a saying.
She couldn't bear to watch it, so she drew out her Lei Yao and rushed forward. With one sliding step, she chopped off the heads of two zombies from behind. She also became the target of the zombies. Three zombies immediately surrounded her. She took care of the three zombies in a few moves. Just then, she saw the woman opposite her poking a wooden stick into the head of a zombie.
However, the other zombie's claw was about to grab the woman's arm. The man hiding behind the woman screamed, grabbed the woman's waist, and flashed away. The two were already ten meters away, just avoiding the zombie's attack.
"Speed mutant!"
Wu Lianyi originally wanted to nip the crisis in the bud before these two people attracted more zombies, and then find a means of transportation, but she didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.
The two successfully avoided the claws of the last zombie, but the zombie, having lost its target, rushed towards Ripple.
"you"
Before the woman could finish her words, Lianyi interrupted her by killing the last zombie with a backhand sword.
There was not even a trace of blood on Lianyi's obsidian sword, which made the man and woman on the opposite side look envious. If they had such a powerful weapon, they would not be surrounded by several zombies here.
Lianyi looked around and saw an SUV with a higher chassis. The door was half open and there was blood on the side of the car. The owner was most likely turned into a zombie. Her eyes lit up and she walked over immediately.
The man and woman seemed to have the same goal as her and also walked towards the black SUV.
Lianyi raised an eyebrow and glanced at the other person, and both of them seemed to have discovered the problem.
