The coldness in Gu Yan's eyes gradually dissipated.
His eyes were bright and clear as he looked at her calmly.
Shen Jing raised her hand expressionlessly, but couldn't bring herself to hit him in the cheek.
Her heart was pounding wildly at that moment...
It wasn't the anger I felt the previous two times, but rather a strange emotion.
I also feel a little...heartbroken.
Are you kidding me? Is she really going to make the same mistake that all women make?
Feeling sorry for a man will only slow her down the speed at which she draws her sword!
However, she ultimately chose to flee. When Gu Yan gazed at her, Shen Jing had the illusion of being gently cherished. This illusion could also be, as Murphy's Law suggests, the misconception that someone likes you.
There's no other explanation but that it's a misunderstanding.
The crazy big shot is just like in his past life, casually teasing his prey!
She actually felt sorry for the big shot in the apocalypse, and even misunderstood that he liked her.
It's so inappropriate!
This matter must be stopped here!
Shen Jing glared at Gu Yan, then quickly ran back to the fishing spot.
She took the bag from Sister Chen and said casually, "You can make it into preserved fish, so it can last longer."
Even if the ice and snow melt, those fish will be well preserved, but Shen Jing didn't say this aloud.
People still harbor illusions about the disaster, always thinking that spring will come after the snow melts, but what they don't know is that there is no spring anymore!
Sister Chen looked at Shen Jing with suspicion, but when she looked behind her, she didn't see Gu Yan's figure.
She wondered to herself if the couple had a fight.
"Steamed fish is great! Steaming is a common way to cook it, and you can also stir-fry it with dried radish or winter bamboo shoots!" Sister Chen talked about food with great expertise. "It's a pity that dried radish is hard to find these days!"
Shen Jing's space is indeed there; she has collected a lot of different kinds of dried goods.
Unfortunately, she has virtually no talent for cooking.
However, I can cooperate with Sister Chen; I have to choose between contributing resources and contributing manpower.
"Once we've cleaned all the fish, we can haul in the nets for the rest," Huang Yue interrupted them, knowing that if they continued, he'd be drooling with envy. "If only we could find more fishing nets, we could dig a few more ice holes tomorrow!"
Making empty promises is not as good as taking concrete actions; Huang Yue is eager to make a fortune.
We collected more than 60 live fish, and more than 20 of them were half-dead.
It's definitely not comparable to the kind of winter fishing before the apocalypse, where hundreds of thousands of kilograms were caught in a single net.
But everyone present was quite satisfied.
Xie Zhizhou cautiously surveyed his surroundings through binoculars, then suddenly stared intently in one direction with a tense expression.
After confirming that he wasn't mistaken, he warned, "Someone's coming."
Shen Jing used her supernatural ability to probe in the direction Xie Zhizhou pointed, and sure enough, she saw dozens of people approaching menacingly.
After her ability was upgraded, her detection range expanded to more than one kilometer.
Moreover, everything within a radius of her is within the range of her supernatural abilities.
Xie Zhizhou and Sister Chen each took a stun gun.
Huang Yue still used a wrench, but he also had a wooden gun given to him by his comrades, which he used to save his life!
Shen Jing turned around and took out a crossbow from her backpack.
This is a new weapon she conceived after advancing her superpowers, designed to complement her ranged attacks. Regarding the idea of using a gun, she and Huang Yue shared a similar sentiment: don't reveal all your cards at once!
"It should be the group from the west of the city." Huang Yue put the ice-breaking tools aside; he couldn't let them take them again!
"It's fine to leave the fishing nets there for now; they definitely know what we're doing here."
"Yes, just leave it there." Huang Yue nodded.
Looking at the pile of bags, Sister Chen felt resentful: "Are they going to steal them again?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the people over there had already gathered around.
A dozen or so tall, adult men, each carrying a gun, shouted, "Oh, you actually dare to come here? You're tired of living, aren't you! And you caught so many fish... I suggest you go find somewhere cool to stay!"
"Holy crap, they even have stun guns and crossbows!"
The leader just now laughed smugly, "Like it? Go ahead and take that girl down, and the crossbow will be yours!"
"Hahaha! Big brother is brilliant! I'll take care of this girl!"
This man laughed arrogantly, and his muscular physique was no less impressive than Huang Yue's; it was obvious to anyone with eyes that he was no ordinary fighter.
Moreover, he chose Shen Jing, rather than Huang Yue, who also appeared to have similar martial prowess.
Those are the kind of scoundrels who routinely bully the weak; they love seeing the vulnerable cry and beg for mercy!
These people were talking openly and unrestrainedly right in front of them, as if they were already dividing up the spoils.
Sister Chen's legs were trembling; she had almost lost her life when her son was kidnapped last time. When she heard the man pointing at Chen Jing, she was terrified!
Shen Jing put her hand on Sister Chen's shoulder. "Don't be afraid."
"That's right, that's right, don't be afraid, your brother is very gentle and considerate."
The burly man let out a lewd laugh, slowly approaching Shen Jing with a gun in hand, his eyes brimming with sadistic desire.
Just as he was about to reach out and grab Shen Jing, the leader spoke up: "Stop right now!"
The man looked at his older brother in confusion, not understanding what was going on, but the next second he was shot and killed by the leader!
The bullet even grazed Shen Jing's side!
Shen Jing picked up the gun from the ground and pointed it at the group of people, "Looks like your eldest brother's aim isn't very good?"
Everyone was shocked. What was going on?
Did the big brother really miss?
But he clearly wouldn't make that kind of mistake, and he didn't need to shoot Shen Jing first.
The dozen or so men looked at each other in bewilderment. One of them stood excitedly in front of the leader and demanded, "Big Brother, why did you kill Ah Hu!"
This group is visibly beginning to disintegrate from within.
Those who died were people who were like brothers to us.
Although brotherhood is worthless in the apocalypse, who knows who the eldest brother will miss next?
Huang Yue and Shen Jing exchanged a glance, then pulled Sister Chen back.
Xie Zhizhou was still unwilling to leave, but after being slapped by Shen Jing, he obediently took a few steps back.
"Brother! Explain yourself!" The agitated Ah Long was the cousin of the man from earlier.
After saying this, he was shot by the leader!
Another one died... and the boss didn't hesitate or explain at all.
These people started to panic. The leader had relatives in the command post in the west of the city, and they usually relied on him for support.
But that doesn't mean we should just stand there and let him kill us!
"Big brother! Stop!"
"Help...don't kill me..."
The leader, as if possessed, indiscriminately fired at his underlings who dared to resist. These men, who usually bullied others, never imagined they would one day be killed by their boss.
The cries of agony rose and fell, and some people began to think about hiding with Shen Jing and the others, at least to find a human shield!
But it was as if he was halfway through a curse; he had only gone halfway when he found himself unable to walk any further!
Shen Jing pointed a peanut at the man's head and rewarded him with one.
She smiled and waved to the person who had fallen.
"Bye-Bye."
