Wei Lun couldn't help but smile. It turned out that the Qin family father and daughter had gone to find their treasure vault. Good heavens, how many gold bars must that be?
A smile crept onto his lips as he asked with a grin, "Where are the gold bars? Did you bring them back?"
"Uh... no."
Qin Jiayou stammered, "Although I went to inspect the bank branch this time, there were a huge number of zombies at the entrance, and I could only see the shadow of the vault door from afar. This time, I came back to find some people to go with me. Only by breaking through the zombie siege and cracking the vault's password can we possibly get the gold bars."
It's impossible to blow open the vault door; its thickness is utterly hopeless. Even if you blasted it open with a tank, you could only create a dent at most. You have to use a password to enter. Moreover, the vault door is powered by pre-disaster carbon nanotube power, so it's impossible for it to run out of power. It has stored at least ten years' worth of power inside.
"Why not bring back some gold bars?"
Wei Lun was puzzled. Since they had gone all the way there, wouldn't it be a win-win situation to bring some back as well? Could it be that the environment had been destroyed and the vault had become ruins?
"Boss, there are too many zombies, and we can't get into the vault without the password."
Upon hearing Qin Jiayou's words, Wei Lun immediately felt deflated. It turned out that after all that effort, they had only found the location of the outlet, but in reality, they couldn't get in at all.
Just as Wei Lun was frowning and getting anxious,
Qin Mutong said mysteriously, "Honey, if someone inside this tent can open the vault door, who do you think it would be?"
Wei Lun glanced inside and saw that there were three people in the tent. Qin Jiayou seemed unable to open it, and he knew he couldn't open it either.
"Mu Tong, you're not going to tell me you can open the vault door, are you?" Wei Lun looked at Qin Mu Tong's clear, bright eyes with suspicion.
Qin Mutong coughed lightly twice: "Don't underestimate me! I'm extremely important!"
When Qin Mutong interned at a bank branch, she was specifically responsible for counting the bank's fixed assets and inventory. Her fingerprints could pass through the smart system of the vault door. In the past, there were cameras all over the bank, and no one would open the vault door to steal things, but now the bank is in a state of unmanaged operation.
"Really? Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and move the gold away!"
Wei Lun couldn't sit still any longer. Upon hearing this good news, he wished he could fly to the vault immediately and lie down on the gold to take a nap!
"Boss, we can't get in... there are too many zombies."
Qin Jiayou had been there before and knew the situation there. The bank branch was located in the center of the town. Because of its convenient location, there were a lot of zombies roaming around. If you didn't bring enough people with you, you would be killed before you even got close to the vault.
"Should we recall Zeng Guangtian? Leave one person at the construction site, and we'll go and come back quickly, okay?"
Wei Lun had made up his mind. He absolutely couldn't let such a good opportunity slip by. He had the password to open the vault, a small guard, and the space in the black jade pendant. He figured it would be easy for him to store all the gold bars.
"This should be enough to hold out for about ten minutes, but it will be very difficult to take all the gold away in ten minutes!"
Qin Jiayou was unaware that Wei Lun possessed a black jade pendant, which would allow him to collect the gold in a mere second. This was why he was worried that he wouldn't be able to collect it all in ten minutes. Furthermore, he had already used up a lot of bullets, and he would need to replenish his ammunition after defeating the zombies in the bank.
Wei Lun took out a gun, handed 200 rounds of ammunition to Qin Mutong, and 200 rounds of ammunition to Qin Jiayou.
He smiled and said, "Girl, take this too. Come with us. It'll help you practice your marksmanship and also serve as a self-defense tool."
Qin Mutong touched the automatic rifle, a hint of determination appearing in her eyes. She was fearless on the battlefield if Wei Lun needed her; a heroic figure seemed to emanate from her.
Wei Lun then instructed Qin Jiayou to go to the construction site and notify Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, and Zhu Guanjun to return and assemble.
After receiving the order, Qin Jiayou immediately set off for the construction site. He ignored the zombies along the way as long as they didn't target him, his goal being to get back to the site as quickly as possible.
Inside the tent, Wei Lun brought out the abundant food he had brought this time. As usual, there was a self-heating hot pot, as well as chocolate, wafers, potato chips, cola, and fresh pork, which made Qin Mutong feel even more secure.
It seems that Wei Lun is a person who will never lack food. There are not only vegetables but also meat, and the taste is just like before the disaster, making people linger.
Just as Mu Tong was briefly lost in thought, Wei Lun embraced Qin Mu Tong. A passionate lovemaking ensued, the two figures lingering for a long time.
This was a time just for the two of them, filled with adoration in their eyes, the clean floor littered with a mess of clothes.
...
About two hours later, Zeng Guangtian drove his truck back to the base.
Qin Jiayou, Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, and Zhu Guanjun, armed to the teeth, rushed toward the tent, while Du Kun was left behind at the construction site for defense.
"Mu Tong, will you regret being with me?"
Wei Lun felt a strange sense of guilt, as if he had won Qin Mutong's heart too easily. Unlike in modern times, where one not only needs to pursue someone but also spend a lot of money, with Qin Mutong, the two of them naturally came together. Does love really exist in the apocalypse? Wei Lun doubted this.
"Husband, as long as you don't leave me or abandon me, I will never regret it, because you gave me a new life and gave me hope for this world."
Qin Mutong lowered her head and said that in her heart, Wei Lun was everything to her. Because of Wei Lun, she had the expectation of happiness. Every time, she could wait for her lover with the mentality of a wife waiting for her husband to return home. In this apocalyptic world where human life was as worthless as grass, she actually felt a sense of security and a very beautiful feeling.
As the two chatted, Qin Jiayou went into the tent.
"Boss, everything is ready! Shall we depart?"
The four of them came back together, but considering that the boss and Mu Tong were inside, only the boss's father-in-law, who was closest to him, could go in. They weren't stupid; how could they go in when a man and a woman were alone in a room?
"Alright, let's go!"
Wei Lun stood up, and Qin Mutong followed him out. All six of them sat on the truck. Zeng Guangtian and his two companions sat in the front row, while Wei Lun and the Qin family father and daughter sat in the second row. They set off for the bank branch.
Along the way, they alerted many zombies, but they were not as fast as the car. Even when a few zombies blocked their way, Zeng Guangtian's truck rammed them to pieces.
About half an hour later, they finally arrived near the town's bank branch. Everyone held their automatic rifles tightly and stood ready. A major battle was about to break out!
