Stockpiling in the Apocalypse: Supplies Forging a Legend of Survival

When the convoy set out, everyone was full of complacency. But now, on the way back, the convoy seemed lifeless.

The private car owners who came along to do the mission thought they could pick up some benefits by following at the back of the team.

But now, instead of getting any benefits, they had lost their relatives and friends.

In contrast, Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan, who had suffered no losses and even gained a lot, became the targets of public criticism.

When they stopped to rest at noon, Liu Ruyan noticed that many people were looking at her.

However, Liu Ruyan didn't care at all.

Only incompetent people would not reflect on themselves and instead focus their attention on others.

Before the end of the world, guns were indeed controlled weapons. But now, as long as you had supplies and managed to find some connections, it wasn't difficult to get a gun.

They chose to go out of the base to do the mission, and it was a mission to hunt wild animals. If they didn't prepare handy weapons in advance just in case, who could they blame for the situation they were in now?

Liu Ruyan took care of her personal needs and walked out from behind the abandoned house.

She hadn't walked far when a person suddenly appeared in front of her.

Although this person was wrapped up tightly and his face couldn't even be seen, Liu Ruyan immediately guessed his identity.

"Xie Pengfei?"

Being recognized by Liu Ruyan right away, Xie Pengfei was a bit stunned. But soon, he sneered and said,

"You could recognize me at once. You should know that I would come to seek revenge on you, right?"

Liu Ruyan shook her head. "No, I just think that if someone comes to act stupid in front of me, that person should be you."

"You!"

Xie Pengfei was choked with anger, and his eyes looking at Liu Ruyan became fierce. "Bitch, since you are so ungrateful, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xie Pengfei was obviously very confident in his abilities and rushed directly towards Liu Ruyan.

Wearing thick clothes had a great impact on movement.

When the legs and feet couldn't stretch out freely, the combat effectiveness would also drop significantly.

Xie Pengfei dared to come to Liu Ruyan to shout threats, relying on the natural advantage of being a man.

After all, generally speaking, women were no match for men in terms of physical strength and stamina.

However, this was not an ordinary situation.

Every fist or leg that Xie Pengfei threw at Liu Ruyan could be easily dodged by her.

After a few rounds, Liu Ruyan lost interest.

She had thought that Xie Pengfei dared to come to her because he was really capable.

She didn't expect that he only had some showy but useless martial arts skills.

Liu Ruyan took advantage of bending down to pull out the dagger tied to her leg.

This dagger was extremely sharp, able to cut hair by blowing on it.

Seeing Liu Ruyan take out the knife, Xie Pengfei opened his mouth to curse. But just as he opened his mouth and before he could make a sound, he felt a chill in his throat.

Liu Ruyan held the dagger and quickly slashed it across Xie Pengfei's neck.

Liu Ruyan used great force. The dagger directly cut through the layers of clothes, slashed Xie Pengfei's skin, and cut his throat.

Because it was too cold and there were clothes in the way, no blood spurted out.

Liu Ruyan watched Xie Pengfei's body fall into the snow, slowly cleaned the knife with blood, put it back into the scabbard, and then walked away step by step.

As soon as she got back to the car, Zhang Yuan looked at her with concern.

"Why did it take you so long?"

Liu Ruyan chuckled. "I ran into Xie Pengfei."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan wasn't nervous. He just asked in a calm tone, "Did you kill him?"

"Yes. He insisted on being a tragic couple with Guan Hui. Then I could only help him fulfill his wish."

There were many paths in this world. Xie Pengfei insisted on choosing this dead end. Besides helping him fulfill his wish, Liu Ruyan had no other choice.

Kong Rui only gave them twenty minutes to rest.

Twenty minutes passed in a flash. After they took care of their personal needs, they got back into their cars respectively. Kong Rui gave the order to set off.

In a private car, Tingting found that Xie Pengfei hadn't come back for a long time and had a guess in her mind. Her body was shaking even more violently.

The person next to her saw Tingting shaking and asked curiously what was wrong with her.

Tingting shook her head repeatedly but didn't say a word.

Seeing that Tingting didn't want to talk, that person didn't ask any more questions.

The convoy set off again. This time, they wouldn't stop until they got back to the base.

Tingting turned her head and took a look out of the car window.

Xie Pengfei didn't show up.

Thinking of what Xie Pengfei had told her before, that he would deal with Liu Ruyan before getting back to the base, Tingting couldn't help feeling scared.

Xie Pengfei didn't deal with Liu Ruyan but instead lost his own life.

That Liu Ruyan was really terrifying!

Fortunately, they were about to get back to the base. After getting back to the base, she wouldn't have to see Liu Ruyan again.

Thinking like this, Tingting gradually became less scared.

Liu Ruyan didn't know that someone was terribly afraid of her.

At this time, Liu Ruyan was driving.

There were snowplows from the base clearing the way in front, so the road was much easier to travel on.

However, because the convoy was long, the driving speed was relatively slow.

By the time they got back to the base, it was already dark.

After entering the base, the convoy dispersed. The private cars went in different directions.

Liu Ruyan drove the car directly back to the small building where they lived.

First, she parked the car downstairs, moved all the things in the car upstairs, and then Zhang Yuan drove the car to the parking lot.

Because they had been using the air conditioner all the time, the gasoline they brought was almost used up, and only one-third was left in the tank.

Gasoline indeed wouldn't freeze into ice, but it could be stolen.

Even though there wasn't much left, Zhang Yuan still pumped out the gasoline, carried the oil drum, and walked back.

When Zhang Yuan was walking upstairs, he passed the fifth floor. There was a door on the fifth floor that wasn't closed tightly, and voices came out through the crack of the door.

"Guan Hui is dead, and Xie Pengfei is missing. Do we still want to live here?"

"Before, it was Guan Hui who proposed to rent this house. Xie Pengfei paid one-third of the rent. Now that both of them are gone, can we afford this house?"

"I think we'd better go back to live in the collective dormitory."

"But so many survivors have come to the base. It's probably even more crowded there."

"Even so, we still have to go back. Otherwise, in the future, we won't even be able to squeeze in."

Zhang Yuan didn't continue listening and continued walking upstairs.

When he got home, Zhang Yuan took out a range hood, carried it, and went to Liu Ruyan's door.

Knock, knock, knock.

Liu Ruyan in the bedroom heard the knock on the door and knew that Zhang Yuan was back.

She came to the door and opened it, and saw a cylindrical range hood standing beside Zhang Yuan.

"What's this?"

"Didn't I tell you before? I have a very useful range hood. I said I'd give you one when we got back. You can try it in a while.

The usage is very simple. Just plug it in, turn on the switch, and adjust the gear according to your own needs."
