Chapter 100: Chasing My Wife
With water and supplies, the 19th floor remained locked up until May 28th, when Min Weihuan knocked on their door to announce the GJ's announcement of the successful base construction, inviting the survivors, deprived of food and water, to seek refuge there. Their official base in the capital wasn't yet fully built, but the gates had been opened to allow survivors to move in and join in the construction. Min Weihuan saw this as a chance to survive, and he wanted to go too.
Lu Xingtang and the other two did not go to the base. If they wanted to go to the base, they would not go looking for water at all, but would just drive away.
Min Weihuan didn't want to leave either, but the imperial capital was extremely hot and there was not a drop of water. If they stayed in the imperial capital, they would die. Instead of dying from lack of water, it would be better to go to the base to see the situation. At least the news coming out of the base was enough to drive them crazy.
The base takes care of everything. As long as you have all your limbs intact, you can live well in the base. Even if you are disabled, as long as you go to the base, there will be work arrangements. GJ will not give up on anyone!
Ever since the news of the base spread, the people in their apartment building and the entire community packed up their luggage and supplies and left the capital overnight, hoping to reach the base as soon as possible.
After confirming that the people on the 19th floor would not go to the base, Min Weihuan did not force it. He used the few supplies at home to exchange some water with Lu Xingtang. He wanted to catch up with the first wave of people going to the base, because the first wave of people going to the base did not have to pay for accommodation supplies, but those who went to the base later had to pay for supplies, three kilograms of supplies per person!
As soon as Min Weihuan and others left, their community and apartment building suddenly became empty and extremely quiet.
On the night that Min Weihuan and others left, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo went out to take a look. Not only in their community, but all the survivors were carrying supplies on their backs or driving towards the official base of the Imperial Capital.
You can indeed get protection from the base by going there, but how long can it last?
In my previous life, the extreme heat lasted for a whole year, without a drop of rain. Jicheng was so close to the imperial capital, so it rained in Jicheng, and the climate gradually stabilized. But the imperial capital? In the second half of the year, the official base in the imperial capital was evacuated!
"If the weather in the imperial capital remains so extreme, we have to leave! They can't keep running back and forth to Jicheng to find water!" Lu Xingtang frowned.
Ji Yanmo thought for a moment and said, "When we have almost used up all the supplies and water, we will leave the imperial capital and temporarily go to Jicheng to survive! When the weather in the imperial capital stabilizes, we will come back!"
Lu Xingtang turned around and looked at their Sunshine Community. They couldn't go back because before the extreme heat ended, there would be an earthquake that would destroy most of the imperial capital. They had returned from Jicheng and had nowhere to go.
The official base of the imperial capital is still under intensive construction. The survivors who entered the official base were quickly assigned jobs. They now earn supplies with their own hands. Water is brought from the south by the base and is in limited supply.
Lu Xingtang and the others were not envious at all. Even though the people in the base worked at night and slept during the day, most people couldn't stand it. Many people would definitely die from heat stroke. It would be safer to curl up on the 19th floor.
A few more days passed, and the people in the apartment building had no water. The building manager had left, and Lu Xingtang and his team were unwilling to sell water to them. They could not stay there any longer, so they packed up their supplies and went to the official base.
This time the building was really deserted, with only their 19th floor left. There were still people living in the other apartment buildings, but when they couldn't find supplies, they would have to leave the community and flee to the official base or other places.
Lu Xingtang stopped going out. Apart from sparring with Ji Yanmo every day, Su Cheng and the others could not see her. They asked her to come out to play cards, but she refused. "Please, think about what I used to do. I was a medical student! I amassed a lot of medical books, and I want to study hard. Besides, it's too hot, I don't want to go out at all."
In addition to studying medicine, she also has to take care of the small animals in the space. The piglets have grown a lot and are becoming more and more hungry. Her consciousness has been busy since entering the space, and she has no time to rest.
After taking care of the little animals, I have to go to work on the black soil. After coming out of the black soil, I have to check the fish pond. I have to check it several times a day because I am worried that the fish will get sick. Although they have been fine since they entered the space fish pond, they still have to be taken good care of.
More importantly, she wanted to keep her distance from Ji Yanmo. He certainly didn't force her. But she always felt an uncontrollable affection from his eyes, enveloping her.
She saw how outstanding Ji Yanmo was: his looks and figure were stunning! He was also aloof and as ruthless and heartless as she was. He also possessed dimensional and supernatural powers, making him a truly formidable figure! His origins and abilities were mysterious, and for now, he was completely devoted to her.
But, this is the end of the world! She dare not easily give herself to others and trust anyone.
Even though she had some feelings for him, these feelings were not enough to make her give her next life and her life to him.
If they had met without the apocalypse, she would definitely be willing to accept him.
Ji Yanmo looked at Lu Xingtang's closed door and sighed helplessly. It was difficult to pry open Lu Xingtang's heart! It seemed that he had really been chasing his wife for a long time, but he would not give up.
The people of the imperial capital basically went to the official base to survive, but the government also wanted to know how many people remained in the imperial capital.
So the government sent people out to check one by one. When they checked Sunshine Community, they were the only ones on the 19th floor who had not left.
From then on, the government would send a bucket of water every day to meet their daily needs, as well as three to five kilograms of food.
A few days later, the water the government sent was crystal clear, much clearer than the first two days. Lu Xingtang asked curiously, "How did the water suddenly become so clear? There's not a single turbidity!"
The water deliveryman said, "We brought this water from Jicheng. Jicheng had three consecutive days of heavy rain from June 8th to June 11th. The rain has soaked the soil thoroughly, and now Jicheng is no longer short of water! Therefore, we in the capital can go to Jicheng to get water, and we don't have to go further away like before!"
"Thank you for your hard work," Lu Xingtang was very grateful. In fact, they asked them to go to the official base, but she didn't want to go. Seeing that she didn't want to go, Ji Yanmo didn't go either, and Su Cheng didn't dare to take the risk of going out.
Two days ago, Su Hao went to the bathroom without bringing his quick-acting heart pills, which caused him to fall ill before he even finished. If Lu Xingtang hadn't lived next door and treated him in time, Su Hao would have died. From that day on, Su Hao was bedridden.
Lu Xingtang said that Su Hao was weak, but as long as he was well taken care of, he would be fine.
Therefore, it was impossible for him to go to the base at this critical moment. If he bumped into Su Hao, it would be a lifelong regret for him.
Yay, chapter 100! So fast~
