Chapter 118 Strange Old Man
Although he was touched, Lu Xingtang said, "Good people don't pay for their lives, and evil will last for thousands of years. We are a rare evil in a thousand years, so we won't end up like this. Are you hungry? I'll make you some shredded chicken noodles."
Ji Yanmo nuzzled Lu Xingtang's face and said, "Okay."
The moment Lu Xingtang brought Ji Yanmo into the space, his consciousness became busy in the space, and he found that the space had expanded. Except for the space villa and four large warehouses, all other places had expanded. A piece of concrete space appeared, and the cruise ship was placed on the concrete space.
His consciousness swept around the cruise ship, and he found that the Star of Hope sent by the Killer Whale Gang and the diamonds, gold and jewelry sent by the Qingyi Hall had been swallowed up by space.
After Ji Yanmo had eaten, Lu Xingtang sent him to bed, but Ji Yanmo asked Lu Xingtang to sleep with him. Lu Xingtang avoided her eyes. Although she liked Ji Yanmo more and more, sleeping together...should she reward him with a pair of slippers?
Ji Yanmo knocked Lu Xingtang on the head: "What kind of unhealthy images are you thinking about? Don't worry, I won't take you without your consent. At least it will happen naturally."
Seeing that Ji Yanmo was so righteous, Lu Xingtang agreed.
A man who doesn't want to play poker is not a normal man, especially when facing his beloved. However, Ji Yanmo felt that Lu Xingtang was not ready yet, so he still had to restrain himself.
It was the end of the world, and he was afraid of accidentally creating a villain.
He doesn’t stock up on many small umbrellas.
After waking up, they left the space and took out the bicycle tricycle that they had used during the extreme cold period in the imperial capital. It had broken down before, but Ji Yanmo repaired it and it could still be used for a while. They put two days' worth of supplies in the car and dressed very low-key after entering the territory of Hangzhou City because there were too many refugees in the territory of Hangzhou City, all heading to the Shuanglong base, and they did not want to be too conspicuous.
After encountering the refugees, they were constantly being scanned by them, especially their carriage, which was almost stared into holes by pairs of hungry and vicious eyes. Some people even looked at Lu Xingtang with extremely excitement, which caused Lu Xingtang to receive a lot of sympathetic glances.
Two years have passed since the apocalypse, and human nature has long since become extreme and cold-blooded. To survive, even loved ones can be killed, sold, or even eaten!
Lu Xingtang silently opened his backpack and took out a gun from it. The moment he took out the gun, all the bloodthirsty and hungry eyes disappeared instantly.
A group of guys who bully the weak and fear the strong, because of the gun, no one dared to cause trouble for Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo.
But that doesn't mean no one came to them to beg. Just as they stopped to rest, someone came up to them, holding a skinny child, begging: "Kind people, do you have any food? Can you give my child a bite? He's so hungry. He's been living on water for the past two days. Please give him something to eat!"
As he spoke, he knelt down with the child in his arms and kowtowed to them, "Please."
Lu Xingtang took out a pistol from his pocket, pulled the trigger, and pointed it at the man holding the child: "I'll give you a chance to get out!"
The man looked at the black barrel of the gun and said, "I don't want it anymore. My child is not hungry. I won't eat it anymore. I won't eat it anymore!" He quickly got up and ran away with the child in his arms.
When the people nearby saw the gun in Lu Xingtang's hand, they turned their heads silently, and their restless thoughts immediately stopped. They had escaped death and finally arrived in Hangzhou. Seeing that they were not far from the Shuanglong base, they lost their lives. It was too unfair to them for the hardships they had gone through along the way.
Lu Xingtang leaned in Ji Yanmo's arms, "Based on our speed, it will take about half a month to reach the Shuanglong base." This is still a conservative estimate. What if we encounter a natural disaster?
"I don't know if Su Cheng is still alive? Has he entered the Shuanglong base?" After entering the territory of Hangzhou City, it has been eight months since Su Cheng left the imperial capital.
"Once we settle down in Hangzhou, we can go and ask about Su Cheng's situation."
Lu Xingtang did not respond to this topic, but asked softly: "Do you want to enter the Shuanglong base?"
"Aren't you trying to find out if there's anyone else who knows about your dimension? How can you find them without entering the base?" Ji Yanmo's dark eyes darkened. "Are you worried that we'll be recognized by the people at Shuanglong Base?"
"The Sheng brothers have seen us. Once we enter the Shuanglong base, we will definitely be targeted!" Lu Xingtang said in a low voice, "I want to find a suitable place in Hangzhou to stay temporarily, secretly observe the Shuanglong base, and find that person! It would be best if we can't find him!"
Lu Xingtang really didn't want to join the Shuanglong Base, mainly because she was very unhappy about the Shuanglong Base abandoning the base after the acid rain in the previous life, leaving behind refugees and taking supplies and technical personnel to escape. Moreover, the base management was in chaos, and the result of the chaos was that the base could not unite its forces.
"I think... what you said makes a lot of sense! Besides, we don't know much about Shuanglong Base, and we've made enemies with the Sheng brothers. We can't rashly enter Shuanglong Base, otherwise we'll be caught like turtles!" After a pause, Ji Yanmo continued, "I want to live in the mountains with you and experience the ordinary life of working from sunrise to sunset!"
"I agree!" In my previous life, after arriving in Hangzhou and entering the Ssangyong base, Hangzhou's weather returned to normal two years later, while other cities were hit by natural disasters. But two years later, Hangzhou's weather became extreme, destroying the homes that people had worked so hard to build.
Because they had guns, they were relatively safe during the journey. Some people who were extremely hungry ate tree bark and dug tree roots to survive, and went hunting in the mountains. As a result, they did not catch any prey, and the people never returned. When they were found by their families, they were already dead.
One day, Lu Xingtang and his companions passed a remote road section with few refugees. They saw a white-haired old man sitting by the roadside. His clothes were so dirty and greasy that the original color could no longer be seen. He clasped his hands together and begged every passerby, "Please, give me a bite to eat. I've been hungry for seven days. I really can't eat tree roots or weeds. The Guanyin soil I eat gives me a stomachache, and I can't go to the toilet for several days. If anyone has food, please give me a bite, just one bite, as a final farewell to me!"
But the refugees passing by were too busy taking care of themselves to care about the old man. They all left without even looking at him.
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo had donated supplies to the government or soldiers before, but that was for the government, not for the survivors.
Their kindness is only used on GJ or soldiers. These people... they won't even give them a glance, and their life or death has nothing to do with them.
When the old man saw Lu Xingtang and the others pushing the tricycle over, his eyes lit up and he quickly got up from the ground and rushed over. The moment the old man ran over, Ji Yanmo grabbed his shoulders and threw him to the ground. Before he could say anything, the old man started yelling, "I'm already old. If you don't want to give me food, then don't give it. Why did you throw me? No, if you throw me, you must give me food, no matter what it is."
