Chapter 62 Relaxation
After the apocalypse, countless people died of hunger, illness, revenge killings, accidents, and zombies outside the base.
Someone could die every day.
So the disappearance of Hu Kang and his three companions was quickly forgotten and no one paid attention.
The rest of Hu Kang's team also joined other teams of superpowers, got new teammates and leaders, and never met Bai Zhi again.
In Bai Zhi's previous life, when she was in a bad mood, her favorite thing to do was to go on a spontaneous trip
to see the beautiful scenery of the world.
Look at the plateau lake under the golden mountain at sunrise, feel the wind by the sea at dusk, climb the high mountain peaks on top of the white clouds, lie down and look at the starry sky and galaxy in the desert Gobi...
Then you will find that human beings are so insignificant to nature;
the trivialities, love, hate, separation and sorrow that trouble human beings may just be temporary troubles in the long river of time.
Life is only 30,000 days, so there is no need to force the same happiness every day.
After all, when people recall the past, they recall some moments in life.
Some people say that a person's life is lived for these moments.
Once happy, once passionate, once crazy...
In this way, it can be said that it is not in vain to come to this world.
So after Bai Zhi knew Li Chengyi's past and supernatural power, she decided to take him out of the base to relax.
With Li Chengyi's space teleportation and her shapeshifting ability, at least the two of them will have no problem surviving.
As a top-level male protagonist, Li Chengyi's offensive power is also guaranteed. As long as the two of them don't commit suicide, it is still safe to go out for a short period of time.
After making a decision, Bai Zhi began to plan the travel route.
When traveling in the apocalypse, avoiding places where zombies gather is the first priority.
Thinking that Wu Nana, a local of City C, might be more familiar with the surrounding places with good scenery before the apocalypse.
Bai Zhi also went to find Wu Nana alone while Li Chengyi went to the gymnasium to store water.
Wu Nana: "Places with nice scenery? There are many, including the Tiankeng Mountains with karst landforms, the Gallery Canyon underground rivers, and the alpine grasslands and lakes. There are too many zombies in ancient villages and towns now, so I won’t recommend them."
Bai Zhi: "How far are they from the base? Has a rescue team ever been nearby? How is the situation?"
Wu Nana: "I remember the town near the Tiankeng Mountains. A mission team went there last week. The road should be smooth.
"Or because they encountered an interesting thing in the town, and told others about it after returning to the base, which caused controversy, so I remembered it."
Bai Zhi: "Interesting thing that caused controversy? What was it? "
Wu Nana: "They brought back a flyer, saying that a box of mineral water and a box of instant noodles were placed with the flyer.
"They finished eating all the food and brought back the flyer.
"It's a store called 'Hope Convenience Store'. The flyer said that the store has everything you need for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and those water and instant noodles are just the tip of the iceberg. All items can be exchanged for points in the store, and the points can be used to buy supplies.
"Although it's a bit exaggerated to say that a convenience store has everything in order to attract people, I can still understand it.
"But do you know what the most outrageous thing is? Its address is actually in Satellite City, east of Tiankeng Mountain! That place has not been cleaned up at all by zombies!
"How could someone open a store there in the apocalypse! Can they open a store and sell things to zombies?
" "So the box of water and noodles was just a coincidence. It should be before the apocalypse, someone wanted to advertise their convenience store and attract business. So they created a gimmick and put two boxes of things there as free gifts.
" "Doesn't the flyer mention points? Isn't that the membership points card business that our shopping malls and supermarkets handled before the apocalypse? Such a simple thing can be figured out with a little reasoning, but there are still so many people arguing about it."
Wu Nana said, shaking her head in disbelief.
Bai Zhi's melon-eating radar sounded almost instantly.
This plot!
The more she listened, the more it sounded like the kind of post-apocalyptic business quick-travel system stories she had read before the end of the world!
There were all kinds of supplies!
All items could be exchanged for points!
There must be some kind of self-protection barrier that protected the store from zombie attacks, and after earning a certain number of points, the store could be upgraded, and at a certain level, the store could hire the apocalyptic natives as employees!
Bai Zhi confirmed with her again, "Is this 'Hope Convenience Store' in the Satellite City east of Tiankeng Mountain? Does the brochure say where in the city it is located? It might be at the junction of the city and town, where there are few zombies and people live."
Wu Nana shook her head firmly, "No, I asked too, and they said it's in the city center, next to the tallest landmark building, the big clock tower."
After asking about the address, Bai Zhi chatted with Wu Nana for a while, and after Wu Nana finished eating the oden she brought, Bai Zhi went downstairs to meet Li Chengyi.
On the way home, Bai Zhi paid special attention to the conversations of passers-by.
Indeed, some people were discussing this convenience store.
So after dinner in the evening, Bai Zhi told Li Chengyi what she had inquired about during the day, and by the way, she proposed to go to Tiankeng Mountain to see the scenery.
Li Chengyi met her eyes and glanced at her expression, and he knew that she suggested going out because of him.
After thinking about it again, he realized that she wanted to take him out to relax because of Hu Kang's matter. He
sorted out her thoughts in an instant, but did not open his mouth to expose her.
He was naturally very moved and felt sweet inside for her careful care of his mood and her actions of trying every means to make him happy.
It was precisely because of Bai Zhi's sincere and pure heart.
This kind of behavior that expresses care and love is not deliberate, but more touching.
It made him unconsciously indulge in it and not want to lose it.
Regarding the rumors about the convenience store, when Li Chengyi was storing water today, the staff on duty at the water storage department were also discussing this matter, so he also learned about the situation.
In his previous life, he was in City D, and he didn't know whether there was really such a convenience store near City C.
Since Bai Zhi is interested, it would be okay for them to go and take a look at the situation.
At worst, when they get close to the Satellite City, Bai Zhi will turn into a small stone in his pocket, and he can go into the city alone.
After the two reached a consensus to go to Tiankeng Mountain and Satellite City, they began to collect road information to this place.
Since both of them had space, they didn't need to bring too many things, so they put a box of dry food and a large but lightweight quilt in the trunk of the off-road vehicle to hide it from others.
Li Chengyi also received a superpower mission at the mission center to go to Satellite City and check the situation of the convenience store.
Anyway, they will definitely go, so the points earned from this mission can be regarded as a side job.
