Ye Lan looked at the six children who were about to get off the bus, gave them a few more instructions, and then watched them get off.
After observing them for the past few days, Jiang Zhaoyuan had a good idea of Chen Wan and the others' fighting ability. He comforted them, "Don't worry, the children are all capable. We just need to take good care of the house for them. Let's go, take Yangyang to the sunroom to water the plants. I see the vegetables we planted have grown quite a bit."
"Okay, then let's prepare the meal after watering the plants. Let's make pan-fried dumplings. We'll mix two kinds of fillings later, one for Wan Ning." After listening to her husband's words of comfort, Ye Lan thought about it and realized that the children seemed to be more capable than she thought.
Ye Lan had rarely seen zombies when she was at the base, so she was very scared when she saw zombies. Later, she saw Yiyi and Chen Wan seeing zombies as calmly as if they were seeing cabbages. Not only were they not afraid, they even deliberately honked their horns to lure zombies out and drive their cars into them. Ye Lan was used to it now. Seeing the children doing that, she was not afraid of zombies anymore.
On the other side, Chen Wan entered the mall first with a machete. Jiang Wanning and Shen Mingyan were the only ones who felt it was new. It was the first time for them to follow Chen Wan and the others out for an operation. The others were all veterans.
Chen Wan took a look and saw that the supermarket in this mall was built on the first floor, so the view was quite wide. It was morning and the sun was shining brightly, so Chen Wan and the others would not feel dark when they entered the mall, which saved them a lot of effort.
There were only a few scattered zombies in the mall at this moment. When they saw someone at the door, they rushed towards Chen Wan and the others, but they still stopped about ten steps away from them. The zombies were all looking at Shen Mingyan. One of the zombies actually trembled when Shen Mingyan looked at him.
"You can try to use the power of the crystal core to get in touch with them." Yiyi said beside Shen Mingyan. This could be considered as training Shen Mingyan's combat power.
Shen Mingyan concentrated her mental strength and activated the power of her fourth-level crystal core. As expected, she found that she had established some kind of connection with the zombies around her even without speaking, and could even give certain orders to these zombies by relying on pressure.
For example, now, Shen Mingyan asked all the zombies to move away, and these five or six zombies really obediently moved away.
Shen Mingyan asked in surprise: "They seem to be really following my orders?"
"Of course, because of level suppression, the highest level among them is only level 2, and there are also those at level 1 who definitely don't dare to mess with you." Yiyi said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go to the supermarket on the first floor to buy some goods while there is still time.
"I'll try to clear out all the useful things here before dark this afternoon." Chen Wan said with a smile. He didn't know why, but he was always happy every time he went shopping. Maybe it was because filling up a small warehouse brought him a different kind of satisfaction and security.
"You go first, I will take Wan Ning to deal with these zombies." Yiyi waved at Chen Wan and the others, signaling them to go first.
She took out her gun and began to explain it carefully to Jiang Wanning, "This is the magazine. When you change bullets, you can take it out like I did and put it back after changing. This is the safety. You must turn the safety on before shooting. After use, turn the safety off for safety reasons. Your sight can be aligned with this sight to aim at the object you want to hit. Now I will teach you to fire a shot and you can get a feel for it."
Jiang Wanning nodded. Yiyi was usually unreliable when she was in the RV, but she was very reliable at this time.
Yiyi stood behind Jiang Wanning, reached out and held Jiang Wanning's hand holding the gun, aimed at a zombie not far ahead, Yiyi pulled the trigger, and with a "bang" the zombie was hit in the forehead and fell to the ground.
Yiyi released the hand that was holding Jiang Wanning and looked at Jiang Wanning, "You try it."
"Okay." Although Jiang Wanning was no stranger to killing zombies, she was a little nervous this time because she took the initiative to do it.
Jiang Wanning held the gun with both hands, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger, but she was too nervous and her hand was a little unsteady. The first shot hit the metal shelf next to the zombies. With a "bang" sound of metal friction, the six zombies heard the noise and rushed towards Yiyi and the others.
Yiyi calmly took the gun from Jiang Wanning's hand and fired five shots in a row. Five zombies fell to the ground, and only one was left, but it didn't dare to run away. This zombie obviously had intelligence and should be a level 2 zombie.
Yiyi reloaded the gun and quickly handed it to Jiang Wanning. "You can handle the remaining one yourself."
Jiang Wanning took the gun and took a deep breath. He held the gun with both hands and aimed at the zombie and fired. This time the bullet hit the zombie's shoulder, and a stream of smelly purple-black blood spurted out. Jiang Wanning gritted his teeth and fought back. Everyone was very powerful. Even if he didn't have any special abilities or great skills, he had to at least be able to protect himself and not hold everyone back. Fear was the most useless emotion in the apocalypse.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wanning fired several more shots in a row, and finally knocked the zombie to the ground with the fourth shot.
Yiyi could see Jiang Wanning's nervousness and patted her
Jiang Wanning put her hand on his shoulder and comforted him, "It's always like this the first time. It's normal to be nervous. It will be much better next time. Turn off the safety and let's go help carry the things."
Jiang Wanning's forehead was already sweating. She turned on the safety and loaded the pistol as Yiyi said, then followed Yiyi into the supermarket.
Yiyi reached out to hold Jiang Wanning's wrist, but it was cold. Yiyi comforted her, "Once you get over this hurdle, you won't be so nervous next time you shoot. Don't be afraid, you still have me."
She held Jiang Wanning's hand in her own to keep it warm.
"Well, I know. I'm just not used to it, but I will try my best and won't hold anyone back." Jiang Wanning looked at Yiyi.
Yiyi took advantage of the fact that no one was around and leaned over to kiss the side of Jiang Wanning's face. "I'm not holding you back. I've done a great job. Don't be unhappy."
Jiang Wanning's ears turned red after being kissed by Yiyi. She reached out to push the person who was holding her back: "You're still outside. You're annoying."
"Okay, then let's kiss each other again when we're done today and back in the RV." Yiyi smiled, trying to make Jiang Wanning happy.
Jiang Wanning's ears turned red as she broke away from Yiyi and ran to find Jiang Yanxin and the others.
The shopping mall in this small county town was basically not damaged, and many supplies were intact, especially those that came in packages.
The first place they cleared was the food area. Chen Wan and a few others worked in pairs to pack things into large bags. Jiang Wanning and Yiyi also came to help.
Chen Wan threw all the packaged foods such as black fungus, white fungus, vermicelli, etc. on a row of shelves into her bag. She also found several large bags of seaweed and put them all into her bag. These things can be eaten after soaking them at home. They can at least supplement some vitamins and are much more nutritious than eating noodles or something like that all day.
Jiang Yanxin was shopping in the sauce packet area. A row of shelves on the wall were filled with various seasonings, barbecue seasonings, curry, pickled fish, hot pot, malatang seasonings, and other seasoning packets you can think of. All of them were put into the bags. These things might be difficult to eat in a few years. Thinking of this, Jiang Yanxin put all the salt and sea salt on the shelf into the big bag.
Yiyi and Jiang Wanning started to move flour and rice together. Although it was August and the weather was very hot, fortunately most of the rice and rice were vacuum packed and not easy to get worms. Yiyi felt that moving like this was not enough, so she found a large cart for moving goods from the warehouse. She pulled out two carts by herself, and Jiang Wanning pulled out one. In this way, Chen Wan and the others moved these
Things are much more convenient.
Chen Wan and her colleagues first carried the heavy objects in boxes, and then placed the bagged loose items on top of the boxes, so that they could carry more items at a time.
Qin Ke and Shen Mingyan loaded all the corn oil, peanut oil, rapeseed oil, sesame oil, and olive oil onto the truck bucket by bucket.
Yiyi and Jiang Wanning carried the rice and flour together. Soon the rice and flour on the cart were neatly piled up like a small mountain. Yiyi and Jiang Wanning had already started pulling the cart towards the RV.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin were carrying grains, boxes of condiments and other things. It was very likely that soy sauce and vinegar would become luxury goods in the end times in a few years.
Everyone was moving things around the grain and oil area, and it took them seven or eight trips to move all the packaged items away. There were also some bulk rice, flour, sugar and other things that Chen Wan didn't dare take. After all, it had been several months, and if these things were contaminated with the zombie virus, it would be a waste of time.
I had placed those steel parts for Yanyan before, so there was a lot of space left in the compressed space. After upgrading it once, there was even more space to store things.
After Chen Wan and the others cleared the grain and oil area, they moved to the daily necessities area. Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin were responsible for carrying things like toilet paper, sanitary napkins, and tissues; Qin Ke and Shen Mingyan put all the toiletries on the cart; Yiyi and Jiang Wanning were carrying things like laundry detergent and toothpaste. There weren't many of these things on the shelves, so they cleared out the area after just a few trips back and forth.
Next is the area for snacks, milk, and beverages. There are quite a few biscuits and bagged potato chips with a long shelf life that are still edible. Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin put the items on the cart as soon as they see that the packaging is intact.
Yiyi and the others went to the other side to carry yogurt and milk with a longer shelf life. They also found a lot of bottled milk powder, instant milk tea, lotus root powder and other things, and took them all away.
Qin Ke and Shen Mingyan carried the mineral water one by one onto the cart. They also carried some fruit juice and other things. In the end times, it might be difficult to find these carbonated drinks and fruit juices in the future.
Chen Wan and her friends didn't have much stuff, so after they finished moving, they went to Qin Ke to help move drinks and other things. However, there were so many drinks that they couldn't move them all, and they also had to leave room for clothes, quilts and other things. In the end, they had to pick out some of their favorite drinks to move.
After five or six more trips of delivery, Chen Wan and the others started the final sweep. Yiyi and the others threw all the women's and men's underwear in the supermarket into the cart, and threw the rest of the clothes on as well. They also put some consumables such as face towels and small hand towels on the cart as soon as they saw them.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin took five or six kettles, as well as some brand new cutting boards, basins, cups, chopsticks, and sets of bowls.
Qin Ke and her friends found a lot of pajamas from the clothing section of the supermarket, and also bought a lot of plush toys for Zizi.
It took several people more than four hours just to move the goods in the supermarket. They didn't even have time to eat lunch. In the end, Ye Lan prepared the meal and asked them to eat first, and then she called Chen Wan and the others back.
Ye Lan looked at the expressions of the others and quickly poured water for Chen Wan and the others. "Hurry up and sit down to eat and rest. The supplies are in there and can't be taken away. You guys don't need to work so hard and tire yourselves out. You're all sweating profusely."
Chen Wan smiled and said, "It's okay, Mom. We're not tired. As long as there's something to move, we'll be happy. We'll continue after dinner."
A few of them went to the bathroom to clean up briefly before going out to eat. The juice they had just brought back was placed on the table, and a full cup was placed in front of the baby. The little guy took a bite of the beef pan-fried bun and a sip of juice, eating happily, his little face was full of joy.
