Chapter 6: The Heartthrob Cannon Fodder in the Apocalyptic Literature 5
They laughed as they watched the girl running back and forth like a hardworking squirrel, packing up the things she wanted to take away.
Seeing the girl feeling distressed because she had too much to pack, Qi Yan comforted her: "It's okay, it's not much. I have a lot of space. When the time comes, you can just put all your things in it."
Nan Qiao's eyes lit up, and she thanked Qi Yan again, then continued to pack her things. It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening when Nan Qiao finally packed up her things, and then Qi Yan put them all into the space.
Seeing the girl sweating from exhaustion but still very excited, Qi Yan asked her to sit on the sofa and rest. He then asked Lu Feng and Yan Chuanhao to get a bucket of hot water and put it in the girl's bedroom bathroom.
"Don't be busy. The things have been packed. Go take a shower first, and then go to rest." Qi Yan said softly with some heartache: "We will leave early tomorrow morning." He originally wanted to help the girl pack, but thinking that girls have too many private things, he let her pack by herself.
"Well, okay, then you should go to bed early too. Good night." The girl was sweating profusely, and her rosy face was filled with excitement.
She has been in poor health since childhood, so she rarely travels far. This is her first time, and she is still a little excited.
As the girl went upstairs, the three boys gathered together downstairs.
"What's the weather like tomorrow?" Lu Feng asked Qi Yan, who was the best at electronic communication among the three of them.
"That's good. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be sunny tomorrow." Qi Yan took out the mobile tablet he had used in the car before.
That’s not bad. If it continues to rain tomorrow, it will be difficult to travel.
Before the end of the world, if you wanted to drive from Province S to City B on the highway, it would only take a day and a half.
But the post-apocalypse was different. After the apocalypse, mutant plants appeared, and most highways had been occupied by mutant plants. There were also countless zombies on the road, so they were not sure how long it would take to arrive.
"Has the car been modified?" Qi Yan looked at the map on the tablet, selected the road with the least possibility of danger, and asked Yan Chuanhao. Yan Chuanhao was born into a military and political family and studied mechanical modification. He could modify an ordinary car into a solid one.
"It has been modified. The glass has been replaced with bulletproof glass." Yan Chuanhao nodded, indicating that he had finished dealing with the car.
They don't have to worry about gasoline. Qi Yan has collected gasoline from several gas stations along the way, so the reserves are more than sufficient.
The three boys carefully confirmed their preparations once again. The journey to the survivor base in City B was not an easy one, and none of them wanted to let the girl suffer.
"Ayan, please put the ingredients in the kitchen later. I will make breakfast for Qiao Qiao tomorrow morning." After the final discussion, when everyone was about to go back to their rooms to rest, Lu Feng patted his head and said.
Qi Yan nodded and casually took out a bag of supplies and placed them in the kitchen.
Nan Qiao slept soundly all night without any dreams and woke up at around seven o'clock the next morning.
After washing up and having breakfast with the three boys, she put on her backpack and hat and prepared to set off.
Tian Hao and the others also packed their things. Almost every one of them carried a large backpack, each of which was stuffed bulging with things. They were waiting outside the villa early in the morning.
Seeing them come out, the group of classmates greeted them warmly.
Nan Qiao also smiled and waved, responding: "Good morning, everyone." The beauty smiled, and the sunlight shone on her fair face, which was beautiful beyond words.
The boys' faces were still dark red, and their eyes were still dodging, not daring to look directly at the girl in front of them whose skin seemed to be glowing.
The girls were different, they stared at the unparalleled beauty with green eyes, woooo, if it weren't for those three people eyeing them covetously, they would have gone after the beauty long ago.
Who wouldn’t like such a peerless beauty?
Tian Hao walked up to Qi Yan and the other two hesitantly, pointing to where the car was parked, and said doubtfully, "Brother Qi, your car seems to be gone. Could it have been driven away by some survivors nearby?"
Qi Yan shook his head after hearing this and explained, "I put it away last night. We don't plan to drive that car any further."
He walked to a relatively open space and waved his hand. A black, obviously modified, and extremely sturdy-looking RV appeared in the open space. He turned around and said with a smile, "We plan to drive off in this car."
Everyone stared at the RV in a daze, their eyes full of envy. The RV can be said to be a small mobile house with a bed and a bathroom inside. It is a hundred times more comfortable than an ordinary car.
"Okay, Qiao Qiao, stop looking. Let's get in the car and you can see enough." Lu Feng looked at the girl who was still in a daze with amusement and spoke softly.
Nan Qiao got into the car and observed everything in the car with shining eyes.
The interior of the RV is also spacious, with a glass skylight with a curtain that can be pulled down, a sofa, pillows, and a table similar to a coffee table. Above the sofa is a side window, and the bathroom is in the middle section of the vehicle, near the door. There are beds in the front and back of the vehicle. The back bed is the largest, seemingly wide enough for three or four people. The front bed is smaller, sleeping one or two people. Each bed has a curtain in front, which provides good privacy.
Nan Qiao even saw a small kitchen with an oven, induction cooker and other small kitchen utensils.
The sense of security brought by the RV was so great that for a moment, Nan Qiao almost forgot the sadness of leaving the home where she had lived for so many years, and the excitement of going out occupied her mind again.
She touched here and looked there excitedly, with a happy smile on her face.
When the three boys saw the smile on the girl’s face, they felt satisfied and thought that all the hard work over the past few days was worth it.
When the girl's curiosity was over, a hint of fatigue appeared on her face.
"Go to bed and get some rest first. You slept late last night and got up early today, so you must be tired." Lu Feng, with a keen eye, noticed the tiredness on the girl's face and suggested, "Go and rest first. A Yan, go drive. We'll call you later for dinner."
"Okay, then be careful." The girl yawned and said to them with tears in her eyes. She looked at them with misty eyes, and the boys' hearts were melted.
Nan Qiao slept on the bed in front, which had a mattress, a clean quilt, and a row of cute pillows. She slipped on the bed, drew the curtain, hugged the pillow, and fell asleep.
Seeing that the girl had rested, Qi Yan and Yan Chuanhao went to the front driver's seat. Lu Feng processed the ingredients left by Qi Yan, preparing to make a hearty lunch for the girl who had left home.
…
On a wide highway, iron fences blocked the way. A group of dark-skinned, burly men stood guard in front of the fences, asking for supplies from passing vehicles one by one.
The leader was a man named Liu Wu, who was also big and strong, but looked honest.
Before the apocalypse, he was a farmer in a nearby village. After the apocalypse, he awakened his power, gathered a dozen farmers, cleared the zombies on a section of road, and collected a certain amount of "toll" from passing vehicles.
One of his men saw a group of cars passing by on the road not far away and shouted happily, "Boss, there are cars coming."
Liu Wu, who was smoking, also saw it and said excitedly: "Brothers, a car is coming, cheer up."
The group of men immediately became alert and waited for the team of cars to arrive.
In the RV, Nan Qiao sat on the sofa, opened the window, and looked out at the scenery bored. They had been driving for five days since the day they set out, and they had been staying in the car all the time for five days. She was a little bored.
"Qiao Qiao, is the window open again? Close it, or you might catch a cold again." Qi Yan had just finished dealing with the dishes from lunch, and when he came back he saw the girl open the car window.
After the end of the world, the weather began to change drastically. It was sunny a few days ago, but within two days, a cold wind blew and the temperature dropped suddenly.
The girl woke up from her sleep due to a cold, and the weak girl suddenly had a fever. The three boys, who were always calm, suddenly panicked. Although Qi Yan had medicine in his space, they were not doctors and they were not sure if they could give the girl medicine casually.
In the end, Yan Chuanhao was the first to calm down, remembering that there seemed to be someone in Tian Hao's group who had awakened healing abilities.
They brought the healing psychic to the RV and asked her to treat the girl. They only felt relieved when they felt the temperature on the girl's forehead had dropped.
This incident gave the three of them a great shock, and they took even better care of the girl afterwards.
The girl obediently closed the car window and said to him in a flattering tone: "I was wrong. I was just too stuffy, so I opened the window to get some fresh air. Don't be angry." The heater was on in the RV, and although it was warm, the girl inevitably felt a little stuffy.
"I'm not angry, but your health is important." Qi Yan was somewhat helpless. As soon as the girl acted coquettishly, his heart softened, not only him, but also Lu Feng. Now the only one who could resist her coquettish behavior was Yan Chuanhao.
"I looked at the weather forecast. It might snow in two days. Then we can't stay in the RV. We have to find a place to stay. Then Qiao Qiao can get some fresh air." Qi Yan comforted her. The weather was getting colder and colder. I'm afraid the snow would be quite heavy this time. With the outbreak of the apocalypse and the extreme weather like the cold winter, the possibility of human survival has been reduced again and again.
Qi Yan stroked the girl's hair, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
Nan Qiao obviously thought of it as well, and she fell silent. For a moment, the carriage was silent.
Suddenly, the two felt the car stop. The girl was a little surprised and looked at Qi Yan with a puzzled look.
Qi Yan put away his inner complexities and said softly, "Something might have happened up ahead. You stay in the car, don't open the window, and don't get out. I'll go down and take a look."
Seeing the girl nod, Qi Yan carefully confirmed whether all the windows of the RV were completely closed before getting out of the car with peace of mind.
