Chapter 147

Separate actions

Fang Xin took out a bottle of electrolyte water and started drinking it in gulps.

The weather is a bit hot now. Drinking water alone will not quench the human body's thirst. The more you drink, the thirstier you will become.

Electrolyte water can replenish the energy needed by the human body without causing dehydration.

Fang Xin and Gou Zi had eaten and drunk their fill and had nothing to do.

Seeing that it was still early, I took the dog for a walk to help digest the food.

I saw a few survivors in the distance, living under the ruins.

They dug a hole in the ruins and people lived in it.

Many people were chewing something dry, and no one knew what it was. Fang Xin couldn't see clearly either.

A few survivors saw Fang Xin leading a yellow dog, but they just took a quick look through the gaps in his hair and then looked away.

They have neither the intention nor the courage to come up and rob, but one look at their attire tells you they are not to be trifled with.

Those who are capable live a good life, but survivors like them who are still wandering outside can only survive in a mediocre way.

So they knew what was going on in their minds. When they saw Fang Xin running away quickly, they didn't dare to get close to him. If they didn't like him, they would be in trouble if they killed him again.

Fang Xin took the dog for a stroll and took a look around.

There are a dozen survivors nearby and there is no danger at all.

There are people living nearby, which means there won't be any mutant bug attacks.

So it should be relatively safe here.

After wandering around for more than twenty minutes, Fang Xin led the dog back.

The survivors breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the man finally leave.

Fang Xin returned to the car and Yu Keke walked up to him.

"It will probably take less than two hours tomorrow to reach the mission location."

"Where is the mission location?"

“It’s a village.”

“How many people are there in the village?”

"I don't know either. They just said that the man was detained there, and we don't know whether he is dead or alive!"

"I hope he's still alive, so our trip won't be in vain."

Fang Xin nodded to show that he understood.

"Okay, go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow."

"Don't you need to keep watch?" Fang Xin asked.

"We'll guard it. It's not your turn today. Wait until we get back."

"That's fine."

After saying this, Coco returned to her tent.

Fang Xin walked around the car to check it again before going inside to sleep.

No words were spoken that night.

The night was peaceful and nothing happened.

I slept very soundly. When I woke up, my ears and eyes were clear and I didn't feel sleepy at all.

Fang Xin got out of the car to stretch his body, while Gou Zi went to solve the "urgent problem."

Several members of Yu Keke's team also came out of the tent one after another.

Seeing Fang Xin's eyes light up, "Xin Xin, what do you want to eat in the morning?"

Fang Xin knew that he was hungry again and wanted to buy some food.

"Baozi, do you want some?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Let's count the points together for you when we get back."

Fang Xin went back to the car and took out twenty buns, all of which were large meat buns with thin skin and large fillings, enough for several people.

Since she had space to produce, she seldom ate the finished products she stockpiled before the apocalypse, so it was just right to sell them to them.

Yu Keke smiled with a grin on his face. He took the bun and ran back.

Fang Xin laughed and said, "Don't bankrupt this family."

Yu Keke and the others quickly set up a pot and prepared to cook some rice porridge. They put the buns on the pot to heat them up and cooked them directly out of the pot.

The four of them kept their eyes on the pot, unwilling to move away, and their mouths kept saliva secreting.

The two dishes yesterday were so delicious, with a lot of oil in them, and they were very satisfying to eat.

Seeing the people in front busying themselves, Fang Xin went back to the car, took out some mushroom and meat dishes, and started eating.

She doesn't even need to heat it up and eats it right away; it's still warm when she takes it out.

When they saw the pot was finally boiling, they couldn't wait to take out their bowls and chopsticks and wait.

Each person had five buns and a bowl of rice porridge.

Yu Keke took a big bite of the bun and squinted her eyes in ecstasy, "Wow, it's really delicious."

The rest of the people were eating so much that they couldn't even open their mouths. They just raised their thumbs and nodded their heads desperately.

Fang Xin ate five big buns in total, a fried dough stick, and finished with a bowl of soy milk.

Fang Xin ate a lot. After all, only when you are full can you have strength. He didn’t know how difficult the mission would be.

Yu Keke patted her belly and said, "Ah, it's really delicious. The points I spent are really worth it."

Tall Li Xiaomei said, "Yes, it's very filling and very satisfying to eat."

Yu Keke stood up and said, "Okay, now that we've eaten and drunk enough, let's pack up quickly because we still have to get going."

After a while, the two cars were on the road again.

After about three hours, we arrived at our destination.

There were a few survivors blocking the way, but they were easily dealt with by Yu Keke's team.

The two cars were parked far away from the village.

You have to walk a mile. After all, you can't enter the village in a blatant manner, nor can you park your car too close, which will arouse suspicion from others.

It was almost noon, and the group decided to take action after dark.

After all, it's easier to get things done after dark.

So they stayed there bored until 6pm.

Feeling that it was about time, several people dressed neatly and put on their night vision goggles.

Dogs don't need night vision goggles because they have very strong eyesight and can see things clearly even in the dark night.

But you still have to dress properly, a combat uniform, even a hat, to protect your little head.

Yu Keke and his team often carry out missions. They are fully equipped and never lose any gear. They are very professional.

When the five people arrived at the village, it was already dark, which was almost as they planned.

Since the end of the world, there are usually few stars and moons at night.

At this time of the night, there is no light at all, the earth is pitch black and extremely quiet, and any movement will be magnified infinitely.

Instead of entering the village through the main road, the few people walked through a section of abandoned houses.

After the earthquake and acid rain, many houses collapsed and turned into ruins.

The ones that are intact now were built later, which can be seen at a glance.

There are about a dozen intact houses here.

Since we don’t know which house the technical talents are in, it’s better for several people to search in groups, which will be faster.

Fang Xin gestured, indicating that they should form groups of two and act separately.

Yu Keke nodded, and the four of them immediately split into two groups.

Fang Xin is naturally in the same group with Gou Zi.

She gestured to a few people, indicating that she should go to the innermost part.

After several people nodded, they began to act.

Fang Xin led the dog around to the innermost part.

The houses here are all built with bricks and stones.

Among the dozen or so intact houses, only a few had lights on.

In the silent night, Fang Xin heard some wailing and groaning of pain.

The sound was so faint that no one else could hear it, but she was very sensitive and caught it.

The dog tilted its little head towards one of the rooms, and it was obvious that it had heard it too.

So she immediately gave up the house in front of her. She didn't hear anything unusual in this house.

She decided to check the room where the sound came from first.
