sunrise.
Shen Jing used to play games all night long.
What I saw most often was the sunrise in the east, but now it feels completely different.
The moment the sun rises signifies the return of extreme heat, scorching and killing terrestrial creatures.
Shen Jing took out a bottle of mineral water and gulped it down.
She had one foot on the ground and the other on the foot pedal, ready to go at any moment.
The electric scooter was too conspicuous, so I switched to a bicycle and rode westward.
People who knew her before would never believe that someone as lazy as her would do such a thing.
The reason why Yang Mutong was able to accept her refusal to travel with her was this.
Those who know her know that she won't move on easily.
The further you ride, the fewer zombies there are, and instead, all sorts of pedestrians appear.
A group of people were queuing around a large truck.
From a distance, Shen Jing could see that the water being sold was spring water piped down from the mountains, and the people in line were all holding empty bottles. The people selling water seemed to be local villagers, and some people were trying to sneak up the mountain, but they were all stopped by several tall, burly men.
She also took the empty bottle and walked over.
No one was particularly surprised to see Shen Jing fully armed.
After all, almost everyone dresses like this nowadays, to protect against ultraviolet rays and mosquitoes.
However, someone asked Shen Jing, "These are disposable raincoats, right? Do you still have any? Can you sell me one?"
Shen Jing shook her head. "No, you saw that I didn't change it."
The man walked a few steps away in disgust.
Indeed, they all have a smell, but this smell can fool you in a pile of zombies!
Some people spent a thousand yuan to buy a small bottle of spring water.
I felt like I got a great deal after buying it, and I couldn't wait to start drinking it.
Some people also buy water to cook instant noodles.
Some villagers started their own businesses, selling instant noodles, instant noodle containers, and the seasonings inside.
There's nothing they can't do, only things you can't imagine.
But if inflation continues, a thousand dollars might not be enough to buy even a small packet of seasoning.
Wandering through the various "peculiar" smells, Shen Jing suddenly lost her appetite, but she still did as the locals said and bought a small bottle of spring water. Why? Because if she didn't buy some, she might not be able to pass through the village safely.
This can also be considered a toll.
At least they gave us some spring water as a gift.
Many people wore smiles of bittersweet relief, either walking or pushing carts.
Shen Jing lagged a few steps behind, listening to their discussion: "So we've basically embarked on our pilgrimage to the West, right? By the way, is that base real?"
"Who knows? This is the last message I received on my phone."
"I heard it's true that it's not hot over there!"
"Yeah, if it keeps getting this hot, 50 degrees Celsius, I'll be turning into a dried-up corpse..."
"Don't say that. Quite a few people have died from heatstroke, but, well, sigh."
"Becoming a zombie is considered a rebirth, hahaha...ha..."
Amidst the hostile gazes of the crowd, the man finally realized he had made a terrible joke.
He had no choice but to turn his attention to the silent Shen Jing, "Hey, I'm talking to you, why are you following us?"
Shen Jing looked around.
Indeed, they were the ones who set off before noon.
She lowered her eyes, intending to ride her bike past, but unexpectedly the man became enraged.
The man grabbed her and pulled her onto the back seat of the bike, looking at her with a smug expression: "Where did you get this bike? Did you sleep on it?"
"Zhang Jun, don't go so far..."
A girl wanted to speak up for Shen Jing.
But Zhang Jun immediately interrupted her: "Why are you meddling in other people's business! Huang Simiao, you're just a guide!"
Huang Simiao hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Shen Jing before firmly stepping forward and saying, "Since you know I'm the guide, you should know that without my guidance, you might not have been able to reach the Western Base."
Her voice was soft and sweet; you could tell she was a cute girl just by listening to it.
However, her presence was less imposing than others.
The man named Zhang Jun was embarrassed and tried to knock Shen Jing's bicycle to the ground with his strength!
Shen Jing was just too lazy to cause trouble, but she wasn't afraid of trouble.
She immediately took out a stun gun and smashed it hard down on Zhang Jun's head!
The harder they smashed it!
It wasn't until the people around her realized what was happening and tried to pull Shen Jing away.
However, Shen Jing didn't give them a chance to get close at all; a "buzzing" sound of electricity immediately rang out.
"Don't come any closer," she said coldly.
Then he continued to smash the glass into Zhang Jun's eye socket, saying, "Do you think you slept with him?"
"No...no...no!" Zhang Jun immediately slapped himself twice across the face, begging for mercy, "Heroine, I had a foul mouth, please don't hold it against me! Stop hitting me...there's no hospital to see a doctor right now..."
Shen Jing stared at him for a long time.
Seeing that he was truly just a cowardly bully, he slowly let go of his hand.
"Get out of here."
"I'm leaving, right now."
Then Zhang Jun covered his eyes and looked away.
Huang Simiao looked at Shen Jing with some envy and said, "You're so amazing."
“You can do it too.” Shen Jing straightened the bicycle and prepared to continue.
But Huang Simiao seemed to have thought of something and blocked her way: "Are you going to the western base?"
"Um."
Shen Jing yawned; actually, she wanted to find a place to catch up on sleep.
Last night was mostly spent traveling and killing zombies.
Seeing her listless expression, Huang Simiao immediately said, "Why don't you come with us? It'll be good for everyone to have company."
