Chapter 66 - reward

The noise outside the building is filled with the roaring of zombies, the running of zombies, and various sounds from obstacles being trampled by zombies.

Wei Xuan quietly came to the window, before he had time to carefully look at the situation outside, suddenly a burst of flames erupted behind a few relatively short houses in the street not far away.

With the firework effect and performance sound effect caused by the burst of fire, the nearby zombies were excited again. Even Du Hang, who came to watch the fun with Wei Xuan, couldn’t help but increase his growl excitedly—of course, he called “gui yell”, but no matter how loudly he yelled, he would not abandon the person in front of him and rush out to chase after him. behind someone else’s back.

With a dignified expression, Wei Xuan pulled Du Hang behind him and squatted down together, covering his mouth with his hand. Sure enough, just like before, because of Wei Xuan’s hand covering it, Du Hang closed his mouth very obediently, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally bite him, and his growling voice was also suppressed in a low voice.

The people outside are really supernatural beings again. Could it be that I was really lucky to meet a team that went to the city to do missions?

Wei Xuan scratched his hair speechlessly, and saw another series of fireballs rising into the sky on the street over there, illuminating the nearby streets vaguely, like a series of small suns, very dazzling and bright.

Fortunately, the distance between the string of fireballs is getting farther and farther, and they have already left in another direction.

Although I don’t know how many people came here, whether they were people from the base who went to the city to do missions or survivors in the city, Wei Xuan finally felt a little relieved after seeing this scene, and his heart was slightly relaxed: ” It seems that I still have to look at the almanac when I go out in the future…”

Otherwise, it is really a headache to encounter such a thing when you go out.

The early morning sun poured in from the unblocked window, Wei Xuan looked a little tired, he didn’t sleep very well in the second half of the night, first he was woken up by the fireball, and then because the rope around his waist was too tight No matter how he slept, he couldn’t sleep well, and as a result, he was half asleep and half awake until the early morning. It’s no wonder his complexion is so good at this time.

Fortunately, the people who fired the fireball last night seemed to be just passing by, and it didn’t take long for them to disappear completely. However, because of the appearance of those people, the number of zombies on the nearby streets seemed to be less than yesterday.

However, these did not affect Wei Xuan’s travel plan for today. Since those people had already left, as long as he acted carefully, he could continue to go deep into the city at his own pace to find what he was looking for.

After carefully observing the situation outside in several different rooms on the third floor, Wei Xuan carefully pulled Du Hang out together.

The street looked much cleaner than the previous day, but there were still a lot of zombies wandering around on the street. After making sure there was nothing wrong, Wei Xuan took Du Hang all the way to the center of the city with relative peace of mind. After a few blocks, he resumed the mode of growing things while walking, and walked slowly towards the commercial street.

In the city, the closer to the center of the city, the more prosperous it is, but the houses people live in are smaller, and even the houses are all old buildings decades ago. However, there are shops everywhere, and every few steps you can find a place where a small shop collects food. In the end times, it is a more livable place—provided there is a way to avoid the pursuit of zombies.

Wei Xuan is not interested in visiting ordinary shops, and there is no need to collect all kinds of ingredients and seasonings, so he just walks and looks around, and goes in when he encounters a larger supermarket. However, what makes him feel a little toothache is —He has already transferred three large supermarkets that he marked in advance, but he has not gained anything at all!

It’s not that those supermarkets really don’t have what he needs, but even if there is, it’s completely gone now…

Compared with the mess in the large supermarket near Wei Xuan’s current residence, the downtown area and the large supermarket visited by Wei Xuan this time can be described as appalling.

The population density in the urban center is higher, so the number of zombies is denser than the surrounding area. However, the number of people who survived in the early days of the end of the world is also quite a lot.

In the normal world before the apocalypse, most people would read novels more or less. Even if some people have never read apocalyptic novels, they still know that when a disaster strikes, they must first save their own lives, and then collect food and water to save themselves or wait for rescue. this important matter. Therefore, almost all survivors will go around the place where they can collect food as soon as they are relatively safe.

As a result, even if all the items in these large supermarkets in the city center have been taken away long ago, there will still be wave after wave of visits from survivors who do not give up.

Even if some supermarkets have “empty” written on the walls outside the gates to remind people who come later, some people still don’t give up, or they don’t see it at all, or suspect that it is a lie deliberately written by someone to deceive people who come later. , Still rushing forward one after another to rush inside.

When Wei Xuan visited several large supermarkets during the day, he was very helpless and found that the concentration of zombies in these supermarkets was much higher than that in the streets outside. The crowds of people there seem to have a sense of sight of a train station during the Spring Festival travel season.

“…Turn around again tomorrow. If we still can’t find what we want, we can just forget it.” In the supermarkets I visited today, not only were almost all the shelves empty, but even all the shelves were empty. All were turned to the ground, and there were signs of intentional smashing and smashing.

Those supermarkets themselves did not seem to have suffered much damage in the earthquake, and there were no bricks or other things falling down inside. So what are the smashed shelves and electrical appliances other than man-made damage? possible?

When Wei Xuan entered those supermarkets, he didn’t need to look deeply to feel chills in his heart—if there was anything left, it must have been trampled on the ground! It is absolutely impossible to have anything intact!

Du Hang obediently followed behind Wei Xuan, walked into the top floor of a shopping mall with him, and found a place to rest in an office.

The shopping mall was also in a mess, much more chaotic than those shopping malls that Wei Xuan had been to before, almost all the clothes and commodities on the shelves were scattered all over the floor, simple earthquakes and wandering zombies could not cause such a mess. Effect.

Leaning in Du Hang’s arms, Wei Xuan tugged the rope tied around his waist twice depressedly, and looked up at Du Hang’s dull face: “This thing is really uncomfortable… If you weren’t so dishonest, Why am I so troublesome to wear it every day? No, I have to change it later, or I won’t even be able to sleep!”

Although I knew that I was afraid that if I accidentally turned into a zombie one day, I might get separated from Du Hang, so I tied a rope like the pair of zombies, but it is really uncomfortable to wear this thing 24 hours a day ! Wei Xuan felt that it would be fine even if he only relaxed and relaxed while sleeping? Just like before.

But who made his zombies too disobedient! Learned to sneak away in the middle of the night!

The honest Du Hang devoted a pair of ears to Wei Xuan’s nagging—he couldn’t understand anyway, and Wei Xuan quickly fell asleep after muttering a few words. Going from supermarket to supermarket during the day and walking on very rough roads is a very exhausting thing, so people who are overtired can easily fall asleep.

In the first two days of going out, Wei Xuan’s luck was really not very good. Apart from planting all the potatoes and carrots and destroying a lot of rations along the way, he got nothing at all.

So on the third day of going out, Wei Xuan, who had no hope at first, suddenly wanted to go to a long-established large bookstore in the center of the city to find out if there were any more suitable recipes and some practical reference books for him. When I was there, I found a boutique flower shop opposite the bookstore.

Wei Xuan, who had no hope at all and thought that he could only find some flower seeds at most, was standing in the small warehouse behind the shop, clutching several bags of seeds in a daze, mouth shut for a long time.

After he finally came to his senses, almost his whole body jumped up, turned around and grabbed Du Hang’s two arms with the hand that was still holding the seed bag, and shook desperately: “Seeds! Seeds! There are vegetable seeds! And there are so many kinds!”

The area of this flower shop is quite large. Apart from the dried flowers in the large barrels at the door, which indicate that there should be some fresh flowers inside, there are also many high-quality bonsai and high-end flowers for sale in this shop. .

Although the seeds that Wei Xuan found in the small warehouse were not many of each kind, there were only three to five bags, and the most was only about ten, but there were so many kinds of them!

From a variety of common and uncommon flower species, to a variety of leafy houseplants and even seeds of various trees. What made Wei Xuan even more excited was that there were actually three full boxes filled with seeds of various vegetables!

In addition to the common seeds such as green onions and coriander, there are also many vegetable seeds that Wei Xuan had never heard of or eaten before the end of the world.

One of the reasons why Wei Xuan felt so lucky today was that even though the store had also experienced the earthquake, the main building was still intact at this time, with no trace of rain leakage at all, and the storage effect of the seeds was obviously very good!

“Take it away, these three boxes have to be taken away! There are also these flowers, at least take one bag back, and see what happens if they mutate so that they can be eaten after they are planted?” Wei Xuan, who suddenly entered a state of excitement, began to quickly count Picking up his booty, he now puts the three boxes of seeds aside, and then starts to seed the other flowers and plants.

Although these seeds are packed in cardboard boxes, the box itself is not very big, and the box is not completely full. Take out these seeds separately and stuff them into the large backpacks they carry with them. The seeds in the two boxes may not be able to fill a backpack!

So there is no pressure at all to bring more seeds from other plants.
