the next day.
Jiang Qiao woke up very early and walked downstairs slowly with dark circles under her eyes. She got up to cook like an old housewife. She wanted to eat something simple in the morning and planned to make a few sandwiches.
I opened the refrigerator and there was nothing inside.
Jiang Qiao's eyes widened. She seemed to have made up her mind. She came to Shi Chuan's door and knocked. "Shi Chuan, are you awake?"
The door opened, and Shi Chuan was wearing his bear pajamas, his eyes still closed. "What are you doing? If you have something to say, just tell me. I'm so sleepy."
Jiang Qiao stood up straight, took a step closer, and asked mysteriously, "Kid, are you full?"
[Ding Dong, your grandma's space has been unlocked. Please check. The space will be closed in 20 minutes. Please seize the time!]
Jiang Qiao's words left Shi Chuan confused. He perked up and opened his eyes. "Jiang Qiao, what are you talking about? It's so early in the morning, where can I go to get enough to eat?"
Jiang Qiao also felt embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do. He had no food left at the moment. Although this sentence was very embarrassing, "It's okay, I said the wrong thing. I meant what you want to eat for breakfast, and I'll make it for you!"
Shi Chuan thought about it. He was eating and drinking for free at someone else's house, so there was nothing to complain about. Although he was a prince, he still had to be polite and decent. "Just do what you want! Don't wake me up so early next time."
Jiang Qiao: "Okay, dear Prince, you are right. I will take my leave now."
The door opposite opened. Pei Yan looked at the two people talking and greeted Jiang Qiao with a smile: "Sister, good morning."
Jiang Qiao also responded with a smile: "Good morning, the meal will be ready soon."
Shi Chuan was unhappy: "Why didn't you say hello to me?"
Pei Yan looked at the same teddy bear pajamas on Jiang Qiao and Shi Chuan, his eyes slightly gloomy, and he still ignored Shi Chuan.
"Sister, are you cooking? I'll help you." Pei Yan's speech was finally less slow.
Jiang Qiao of course agreed, "Okay!"
Shi Chuan couldn't help but mutter: "What do you mean, targeting me?"
Pei Yan just didn't like this man. He had the same aura as him, and he was very repulsed by it.
Jiang Qiao quickly turned a blind eye and pulled Pei Yan downstairs.
Shi Chuan watched the two of them walk down the stairs, feeling uneasy. Why did Pei Yan always look like a green tea girl?
Pei Yan felt the unfriendly gaze behind him, turned around and glanced coldly at Shi Chuan.
Shi Chuan stomped his feet in anger. He knew that Pei Yan was a dead green tea man, saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.
downstairs.
Jiang Qiao wanted to quickly go into the space to get some food out, and she asked Pei Yan to sit in the living room.
Pei Yan was very obedient and peeled an apple for Jiang Qiao in the living room.
Jiang Qiao was thinking about entering the space, and in a flash, she was already in the space. There was a timer in front of her, which showed that there were still fifteen minutes.
Jiang Qiao did what he said. He distributed some of the food and took a few long knives and warm clothes.
The three of them can't stay in the Jiang family for long. The weather is becoming more and more extreme, and the zombies will gradually advance. It won't be long before this place falls. So Jiang Qiao plans to eat the crystal core in the next two days to see if he can awaken his superpowers, and then take Shi Chuan and Pei Yan to the Hongyan base to hide.
At that time, the Hongyan base had just been built and people were needed. Shi Chuan was capable, and Pei Yan... she could keep him. Anyway, the main task was to conquer him. When the time came, she would go on a mission and push Shi Chuan into the zombie tide to obtain the bloodline of awakened power. Then she could develop a vaccine, and all problems would be solved.
——
A deserted ferry crossing, where more than a dozen people live, is considered a shelter.
Their clothes were tattered, and their exposed skin had become black from not being washed for a long time, with scattered pieces of mud stuck to it.
It was a filthy mess here. There were burly men fighting over food, skinny old men coughing, and babies crying...
A thin woman was holding the crying baby, and she was trying to comfort him in panic. The noise would attract zombies, and if she couldn't comfort him, both mother and child would be driven out.
Other people around her had already started to express their opinions, and they all stared at the helpless woman with resentful eyes.
The burly man who had robbed the victim came over, carrying a bloody iron pipe. He spoke fiercely, "I'll give you ten seconds. If you can't appease him, I'll either kill him or you and your son will leave this shelter."
The woman continued to comfort the child while crying, but the baby was so hungry that he couldn't stop crying.
The woman next to him warned: "Girl, throw him away! Otherwise we will all die."
Another thin man echoed: "That's right, you want to die, but we don't!"
"I really don't know what you're thinking. Do you really want us to be buried with you?"
…
These words became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the mother.
She had just given birth to a child when her husband and mother-in-law died, and she was the only one who ran away holding the child.
Her crying, accompanied by the crying of the child, sounded even more vicissitudes of life. She put the baby in the cradle on the ground, snatched the iron pipe from the strong man's hand, stood up tremblingly with the help of the wall, covered her mouth, raised the iron pipe high and smashed it down.
The crying stopped and the red on the iron pipe became brighter.
The strong man took back the iron pipe, picked up the swaddling clothes on the ground and threw them far away.
No one paid any attention to this matter anymore, as if this was the best solution.
Jiang Yanyan, who was in the corner, looked at what had just happened and vomited while leaning against the wall.
Jiang Jiming handed her the last bottle of water and said, "Yan Yan, hold on, we're almost at the base, and we'll be safe then."
Jiang Yanyan took the water and took a sip, "Dad, I miss Mom! If I had known earlier, I should have taken her with me, woooooo~"
Jiang Jiming's expression was not good. "The situation was urgent at the time, and there was nothing we could do. Your mother's death was Jiang Qiao's fault. When we awaken our special powers, are we still worried that we won't be able to help your mother get revenge?"
There is a person with special abilities in this shelter, the sturdy man. His special abilities are earth-related. The day before yesterday, after he killed a zombie, he decided to give it a try. According to what was said in the novel, he actually found a crystal core in the zombie's head.
He ate it that night and had a high fever all night. The next day he awakened his earth-related supernatural powers.
The people here knew the news. Some of them longed for power and wanted to try it, but they were alienated and turned into zombies.
Jiang Jiming didn't dare to try it rashly. He planned to wait until he arrived at the base before making any plans.
