Chapter 78 - Stations and Warehouses

After resting at home for two days again, the time passed quickly, September has already come to an end, and the weather in early October is gradually cooling down. However, because it hasn’t rained recently, although the weather outside has cooled down, it’s not so cold yet. Wei Xuan just changed the mat at home, turned off the electric fan, and took out the thick quilt. The only thing he can’t change now is the cold water bag Du Hang, but this is a necessity that he can never change.

“Food, water, blankets, weapons, and the two largest backpacks.” Standing in the room, Wei Xuan made the last inspection. It was getting dark early now, so he needs to see the situation in the room clearly now. Check and confirm the things again, and then go out after a simple “breakfast” meal and a little rest.

After confirming that all the things that need to be carried when going out are not missing, Wei Xuan walked to the table and hurriedly ate the food in front of him, and took out snowflakes to feed Du Hang by the way.

This time he plans to go to the old station first, and after confirming that the things in the old station are all right and getting the amount he needs, he can go to the warehouse street next time. After all, it is not nutritious to always eat potatoes and a single food, so you can take a look at what kinds of canned food are there…

While thinking in his heart, his eyes subconsciously wandered around the room, and he didn’t stop feeding Du Hang in his hands. When he caught sight of the two eye-catching planters in the living room, the word “nutrition” suddenly flashed in his mind.

“Nutrition?” Wei Xuan paused. Although he had added nutrients to the seedling water, the amount of nutrients added was proportioned according to the quota given by the machine itself. Now is the end of the world, and the natural environment has undergone earth-shaking changes, so is the amount of this nutrient sufficient? Or, after the end of the world, the nutrients needed by the seeds are not what humans thought before the end of the world? !

This thought flashed across his mind like lightning, and then Wei Xuan was awakened by Du Hang’s movement – he had already eaten the first snowflake and needed one more, but Wei Xuan kept stretching out his hand and did not make any further movements, so Du Hang was touching Wei Xuan’s fingertips with his lips.

“Ah, do you want snowflakes… snowflakes?”

Seeds, doomsday, withered plants, snowflakes…

Guaixue caused earth-shaking changes in human beings overnight, zombified people and people with supernatural powers.

Plants will wither in the last days, there will be strange snow falling in the last days, and zombies in the last days will take the initiative to eat strange snow…

His eyes stayed on the bag with snowflakes in the other hand, and Wei Xuan felt his heartbeat speed up instantly. After feeding Du Hang the second snowflake, he stood up directly and replaced the original water in the seed machine , with a flake of snow melted into the newly added water, added to the machine.

He wasn’t sure if this method would work, but the seeds in these two machines had been soaking for at least half a month, and they were already going to be thrown away, and they were used for experiments… Isn’t it just right?

The crystal snowflakes melted into the water. Wei Xuan didn’t have time to observe whether the newly added snowflakes could play any role at home. Fortunately, although he was going out this time, the time for going out would not be too long, two or three at most. He will return home in one day, and even if he grows any mutant plants in these short two or three days, it is impossible to endanger the entire room overnight, right?

Take a deep breath and put away the remaining snowflakes. After clearing the tableware, Wei Xuan took advantage of the last glimmer of light before nightfall to put on all the equipment for the two of them, put on the oversized flat backpack, and dragged Du Hang out of the house and out of the community—he had to go to the Bring back those convenience foods that are said to be expiring soon to improve meals!

The dark night is full of stars, and people can vaguely see some things on the street at such a night, so the moonlight and starlight are very convenient for people traveling at this time.

Wei Xuan was one of the people who enjoyed this kind of convenience. Behind him was Du Hang who was being pulled by a rope, and the two walked towards the target with one foot low and the other high.

The old station is located in the southeast of the community from the place where Wei Xuan lives now, and there is a section of the road that overlaps with the place where the crazy woman lives. However, in order to avoid some “accidents” that he does not want to encounter at all, Wei Xuan still prefers to go out far away. But when he walked about half the distance, he began to mutter to himself again—”Isn’t another lunatic living near there?”

Otherwise, how did these two guys know that there is instant rice in that place?

Thinking about it again, he didn’t necessarily think so, because the warehouse area was in the other direction, and maybe that guy from the healing department might bring his zombie girlfriend to live near there.

As for whether there are any traps in these two places… Wei Xuan will definitely check it out first when he gets there, and according to his two contacts with those two people, if such people can set traps for him to fall into If it’s a trick… If he is so stupid, he deserves it even if he dies because of it!

Along the way, bypassing various suspected obstacles and zombies sleeping on the ground, Wei Xuan took Du Hang to the destination of their trip smoothly when the sky was light and dawn was approaching.

The two did not go directly to any warehouse, but instead entered the waiting hall of the old station and waited for dawn.

This station is older than the newly built station in T City a few years ago, but it has not really been suspended. It is just that trains such as bullet trains all stop at the new station, and ordinary express and ordinary trains will also stop here. , so the waiting hall here is actually quite big, and after the new station was built, the so-called old station was also renovated, but the area is not as large as the new station.

After the sky brightened up outside, Wei Xuan first observed the situation in the hall. Compared with the outside, there was not much damage in the already solidly built waiting hall, but some cabinets and chairs were overturned. The ceiling above, the stair lifts, etc. are all intact.

As the sky brightened, the zombies who had been wandering in the waiting hall also got up from the ground one after another. Many zombies in station staff uniforms staggered to the entrance and stopped moving. He seemed to be holding a tool for checking tickets in his hand. A few sanitation staff zombies who were doing sanitation at the station were holding mops and brooms that had long since lost their heads and waved them around.

After confirming that everything inside the station was normal, Wei Xuan carefully observed the situation outside. At this time, the zombies who had “sleeped” all night on the street also climbed up and turned around, facing the gates of several single-family buildings facing the street with their doors open.

“Could it be there?” From a little further away, Wei Xuan noticed that those houses looked a little strange. Those were not shops facing the street, but they had gates that almost occupied the entire wall. So he quickly took out the binoculars and carefully looked at the situation over there.

Some cardboard boxes can be vaguely seen in one of the rooms, and the other does not seem to contain too many things, only the corners of some shelves can be seen. Nothing can be seen at all.

There were only these three strange buildings over there, so after looking around and confirming that there were no other suspicious objects, Wei Xuan began to look at the buildings in other nearby places.

Drawing on the experience of being discovered by a fire-type crazy woman last time, this time he ran directly to the second floor of the waiting hall, held up the binoculars to check and search, and confirmed that even if the distance is farther away, there is nowhere to see the specific situation here No one was found standing at the window in the high-rise buildings or nearby buildings. Then he put away his things in fear, pulled Du Hang and swayed out in the footsteps of zombies.

He wanted to wait until midnight, but when it was so dark, he couldn’t even see what was inside. How could he judge which room contained the things he needed? If you turn on the flashlight in those rooms, it is more likely to expose your existence than going out now!

But if he waited for the dark to pass, and then waited until tomorrow morning to check things… the time would be delayed too much, and the gain outweighed the gain, so he could only take the risk now.

Under tremendous psychological pressure – from the sequelae caused by the crazy woman last time. Wei Xuan dragged Du Hang all the way to the three suspected warehouses. The first room was the room where he had seen some cardboard boxes from a distance. The purpose of this place can be determined—the express delivery point.

Boxes and boxes wrapped in cardboard boxes and special express bags, and all the express mails are affixed with the list of a certain express company. Of course, there may be some of these things that they can use, but they need to be disassembled and checked one by one. , God knows what things can be found after such a busy day?

The things in this room showed signs of being passive, but they were not particularly obvious. There were also several boxes and bags that had been torn apart violently and scattered on the ground, probably opened by someone who had been here before looking for supplies. But just as Wei Xuan guessed, although there are a lot of things here, every time a package is opened is equivalent to a prize draw, who would dare to do this in a place surrounded by zombies?

It is even more impossible for ordinary survivors to do things that even Wei Xuan finds troublesome. So Wei Xuan just glanced at the situation inside and went to the next door.

“…a lot of beer.” In addition to an empty shelf at the entrance of the second room, there are rows and rows of full boxes of a certain brand of glass bottles of beer.

Although this thing will drink less and less after the end of the world, and no one is willing to brew it with food that is already almost extinct, but at least for now, Wei Xuan’s main goal is not these dead things that take up space .

When he reached the gate of the third warehouse, because the door was ajar, there was no other way, Wei Xuan could only bend down and look inside with the feeling that he might be exposed at any time, and then he quickly pulled Du Hang into the room together. Gates — Easy Rice! This is indeed a warehouse for storing instant rice!
