Han Yi hurried, almost jogging, back to his room.
He slammed the door shut and locked it.
The next second, he appeared at the east entrance of the space.
As soon as he stopped, the scene in front of him made Han Yi's pupils shrink suddenly and his breathing stagnated.
The ground was piled with a wide variety of fresh ingredients.
The air is filled with the fragrance of fruits and vegetables and the unique, light fishy smell of raw meat that carries the vitality. It is so real and so fresh!
At that moment, an indescribable sourness suddenly rushed into his nose, Han Yi's eyes became hot and he almost shed tears.
Fresh... Such fresh food!
He could no longer remember how long it had been since he and the people in the base had seen and eaten such fresh vegetables, fruits and meat!
The end of the world brings not only zombies running rampant, but also extreme and irregular climate changes.
This month there may be thousands of miles of ice and heavy snow, but next month it may be scorching hot and extremely hot. It is not uncommon to experience all four seasons in one day.
In such chaotic weather, it is extremely difficult for crops to survive on a small scale, let alone large-scale planting.
The soil has been polluted, water sources have become unsafe, and the agricultural system that once relied on for survival has completely collapsed.
The base did try to build a constant temperature greenhouse in the early days in an attempt to restore some vegetable supplies.
But the plants in the end times seem to have mutated, growing abnormally slowly, having extremely demanding requirements for the environment, and having pitifully low yields.
Faced with the base's growing population of survivors, that meager output is just a drop in the bucket.
Not to mention ordinary survivors, even for him, the nominal senior commander of the base, it is not a luxury that can be eaten whenever he wants.
More often than not, people rely on canned food and compressed biscuits that are at high risk of expiration and spoilage, as well as the occasional mutated animals hunted, whose meat is dry and may carry unknown viruses.
And now, the supplies Yu Bai sent were so fresh that they seemed to have just been picked from the branches or shipped out of the slaughterhouse...
This is simply... a life-saving rain!
Han Yi took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and looked at the mountain of hope with burning eyes.
With these, the temporary base can at least survive this most difficult period.
It can also allow the new survivors to feel a rare warmth and vitality in the end times.
I watched Han Yi's expression change from shock, ecstasy, to disbelief and bitterness, and then to his eyes slightly red and wet.
Yu Bai was filled with emotion, and finally couldn't help but say: "Han Yi, you can get these at any time in the future, the good days are still to come."
Yu Bai's voice instantly brought Han Yi back to reality from his excitement.
He was startled and subconsciously raised his hand to quickly wipe the corners of his eyes, with a hint of barely perceptible embarrassment in his movements.
The commander of the doomsday base, a tough guy who had fought in mountains of corpses and seas of blood and was used to seeing life and death, actually cried in front of a little girl?
If this gets out, Han Yi will lose all his face!
However, Han Yi is a man who has experienced many ups and downs, and his determination is far beyond that of ordinary people.
After a brief moment of embarrassment, he quickly adjusted his mood, took a deep breath, suppressed the waves in his heart, and his eyes became steady and calm again.
"Ms. Yu, this time... thank you so much. These foods are extremely valuable to the base."
After a pause, a serious look appeared on his face:
"To be honest, the temporary base just received a new batch of survivors these past two days, more than a hundred people."
"I'm afraid the supplies you sent these two times won't last long."
"Could you please help me prepare some more? There's no limit to the variety, the larger the quantity, the better."
"No problem." Yu Bai agreed readily.
Then, she changed the subject: "But you may need to wait for me for two or three days."
Han Yi was a little surprised when he heard this, but he immediately understood: "Okay, no problem. Go ahead and do whatever you want. We can save some money here and hold on for ten days or half a month without any problem."
He knew that Yu Bai was in a world that was not just about him.
Yu Bai hummed softly and took the initiative to explain: "I have to take my eldest brother to the hospital to see his leg injury in the next two days. The sooner he sees the doctor, the better."
"Besides, my second brother is very busy these days, and the family can't spare more manpower for large-scale purchases for the time being."
What Yu Bai meant by being busy was that Yu Nian was busy preparing to open a supermarket for his mother Zhou Fengxia.
Han Yi understood: "As you should, family matters are the most important. Don't worry about it. There's no rush for supplies. We'll wait for your news."
It just so happens that during these few days, he and his teammates can collect another batch of gold.
That thing doesn't exist in the apocalypse, but in Yu Bai's world, it can be exchanged for supplies.
Afterwards, Yu Bai left the space first.
Han Yi walked to the pile of fruits, picked up a bright red apple, put it close to his nose, and took a deep breath of the long-lost, sweet fruity fragrance.
It feels so good... It feels so good to be alive.
