In a dark basement, two figures, one large and one small, were hugging each other tightly.
"...Sister, I'm so hungry..."
"Don't worry, someone will come to save us..."
A dry and hoarse voice came out of her mouth, making her think that there was someone else here.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, she realized that it was her own voice.
Yes, I haven't drank water for a long time.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, their father hid a large amount of supplies in this basement, and they and their mother were also hidden here.
Then my father disappeared.
My sister has asked about her father's whereabouts many times, but her mother always used the words "will be back!" "will be back soon!" "Dad will not leave us." Dad is watching from a distance.
Where are we!' and other words to stop him.
But my sister knew that her father might not come back.
Until later, the mother suddenly ran out in a hurry, leaving the two of them alone in the dark basement.
So she took the initiative to take on the responsibility of being a mother, but she also knew that her mother would never come back.
'Where is daddy?'
'Dad is watching us from far away!'
'Why hasn't mom come back yet?'
'I'll be back!'
Gradually these problems disappeared and turned into cravings for food.
'Sister, I'm so hungry...'
'Sister, my throat is so dry...'
From then on, she realized that there was not much food left for the two of them.
Gradually, the two of them stopped talking and just kept cuddling together and supporting each other.
"Sister, will we go to our parents' side?"
When my sister heard the hoarse voice, it took her a while to realize that it was her sister speaking.
It turned out that the other party had long known that his parents would not come back, and he also understood the current situation of the two sisters.
"...Yes, it is a very beautiful place. There are countless small cakes, snacks and candies, as well as countless Cokes and Sprites. There are warm lights and a large grassy area.
,The most important thing is that mom and dad will be waiting for us there, and we will fly kites to our heart's content on that grass..."
Just when the little girl was describing the beautiful picture in her imagination.
A ray of breeze blew on her face, and along with it came a ray of light.
This light is so bright and so warm.
It even made the little girl think that she had arrived at the place she imagined.
"Are you guys okay?"
A gentle voice sounded, awakening the two people who were still in their fantasy.
The elder sister looked at the handsome elder brother in front of her and the can of rice pudding in his hand, and a blush gradually appeared on her face.
"Thank you……"
(Thanks to the benefactor for saving his life, the little girl has nothing to repay, she can only...)
After thinking about it, the older Gu Liang buried his head in his sister's arms.
Ye Xuan looked at the gratitude on the other person's face and his relatively strong figure.
'Very good! We have found another qualified worker and successfully contributed to the cause of clearing zombies.'
Then, he took the two little girls to a temporary camp.
You can vaguely see dozens of people in the camp constantly building something.
And their faces were all numb.
A staff member received them with compassion.
"Don't say anything! My child, just be in peace now that you've come! At least you won't starve to death here."
Big girl:???
…………
Not long after, when Ye Xuan left this small gathering point, the sound of gongs and drums kept coming from behind.
"I can play the suona! Let me play for you a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix, so that we can send Boss Ye off happily!"
"Okay! Let's eat and drink well, everyone! Today is a day worth celebrating!"
"Tonight is unforgettable, tonight is unforgettable..."
Ye Xuan listened to the music coming from behind and could feel their joy.
"This is the power of peace! Only civilization can nourish the flowers of happiness!
You see, how meaningful this is!
In the past, we have not noticed the beauty of this kind of peace and comfort, but after surviving in this troubled world, we can naturally appreciate this kind of fun. Now, just giving them a small piece of pure land can
Make them smile from ear to ear with joy!”
Ye Xuan looked at Xing Yishan who was holding his arm tightly, and tried to twitch his arm.
Well, it's very strong and can't be pulled out at all.
Xing Yishan showed an awkward but polite smile.
When she just heard the music coming from behind, she was worried that Ye Xuan would rush back, so she ran over and hugged the other person's arm and refused to let go.
Fortunately, the other party's mind was a little bigger than she thought.
Well, just a little bit, no more.
After all, ‘Ye Dashan’ is a man who even records how many pieces of bacon the employees have eaten, and then charges them twice! (once for Xing Yishan, and once for the employees)
And now is the time for Xing Yishan to sell herself to pay off her debts.
Xuan Jie opened the map and looked at the locations marked around Qingshui Village.
"This second point has finally been built."
She conveniently put a check mark on one of the red dots.
This tick represents the previous small gathering point.
There is another check mark on the map, which represents the former Qingshui Town.
Ye Xuan stretched his head and took a look.
"There should be several other places that will be built soon!"
After Xuan Jie heard what Ye Xuan said, she took out another map with green circles marked on it.
"Well, after all, there is no need to go to the trouble of Qingshui Town, as long as you plant a circle of plants there."
Ye Xuan looked at the piles of circles surrounding Qingshui Village and felt quite excited. He had a sense of honor that he had accomplished something big.
"After our encirclement is established, Qingshui Village will be safer!"
What they do these days is keep planting plants around Qingshui Village.
Of course, this range may be a little larger than imagined.
Take Qingshui Village as the center of the circle and the distance to Qingshui Town as the radius. Then find a non-standard compass and draw a circle on the map. Then follow this circle and plant a bunch of plants in places with many people.
.
This is Ye Xuan's plan.
It was also named the Cleaning Plan by Ye Xuan.
Of course, at the request of a certain Xing Yishan, Ye Xuan broadened the scope a little bit.
As long as there is a village that is just a little bit close to the circle, they will go there and wander around.
But the price is...
It can only be said that Xing Yishan sold herself very cleanly.
Following the map, everyone quickly arrived at the second location.
Here, a clear circle is formed by plants, and within the circle there are gradually traces of human life.
There is also a pile of supplies piled in the center of the plant. People are constantly taking the parts they need from this pile of supplies.
"Oh, these people finally know that this is a good place! They are finally willing to give it up. It seems that the construction of this place is almost completed. All we need to do is search this place to make sure that no one is missed here.
Already."
When Xuan Jie heard this, she took out the red map and put a check mark on it.
A few people kept approaching the location of the stronghold while talking and laughing.
Just when there were still more than a hundred meters away, several cars appeared at the intersection at an inappropriate time, blocking the entire road section.
In addition, there are many tire breakers on the ground, which can be said to be fully prepared.
Maybe it’s because the nails blew out the tires too many times before! So Xuanjie reacted immediately when she saw these things.
"careful!"
Ye Xuan followed her hand and happened to see the tire breakers, so he stopped.
Of course, with the thickness of Penny's tires, she is not afraid of this short puncture.
Even the cars blocking the road can be knocked out of the way.
"But since someone wants us to stop, let's just enjoy their performance."
Not long after, several people came over and waved their hands to Ye Xuan.
"Let's go! It's forbidden to pass here!"
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and asked patiently:
"Why can't we walk here?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Why are there so many private lands? Just go away!"
Ye Xuan looked at the place surrounded by plants in the distance. It was a square, the kind where aunties and uncles usually jumped around.
"Are you sure? I've never heard of a square having an owner?"
A fat man passing by heard this and immediately stopped the people who were carrying his sedan chair.
"Young man, you have asked the right person this question!"
Ye Xuan turned to look at him.
With just one glance, Ye Xuan knew that this must be a big shot!
Not because he is fat, but because he can actually let four people carry him!
"Hiss! Who are you?"
Ye Xuan took a breath to show respect for the boss.
"Haha, I am the owner of this square! I funded the construction of this place! Not only here, I also have a share in several buildings here. Of course, these are just small achievements that are not worth mentioning.
Before the end of the world, I was just..."
Hiss~
I didn’t expect that this ghost place actually has an owner?
As for the fat man's next words, Ye Xuan didn't listen much. Anyway, they were just some small achievements not worth mentioning.
"Okay! Fatty, stop talking. Stop talking about small achievements that are not worth mentioning!"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the kind smile on the fat man's face suddenly changed and turned into a bit vicious.
"Haha, yes, that's right, those are just small achievements that are not worth mentioning!
Now let’s talk about the current matter! This is my territory, no matter what you want to do, if it’s a dragon, you have to stay with me, if it’s a tiger, you have to stay with me!”
Okay! Since there is an owner of this place, you can just change the place and continue the construction!
I am not such a stubborn person.
"Okay! Since you said this place belongs to you, can I take my own things away?"
Fatty was obviously stunned after hearing Ye Xuan's answer.
"What's yours?"
Ye Xuan pointed to the circle of plants and said:
"It's just the plants and supplies I planted there."
At this time, the viciousness in Fatty's eyes suddenly subsided, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.
You must know that he can live so comfortably in the apocalypse because he relies on the support of those plants and materials.
If he hadn't discovered it a little late, he would have taken the piece of treasure land to himself with his younger brother, and there was absolutely no way he would have shared the place with anyone else.
But now someone actually jumped out.
Not only are they trying to snatch away the meat from his hands, they are not even planning to leave any soup behind.
He soon calmed down, with a coquettish smile on his face, and said to Ye Xuan:
"Oops! It turns out that this treasure land is thanks to you! I'm actually blind to Mount Tai, and I'm blocking your way! Please come in, please come in, Gouzi, what the hell are you doing?
Please move these broken things away!"
What the fat man said was sincere and there was absolutely no other intention mixed in with it.
Because just now, he made a careful calculation. If Ye Xuan is really capable, then if he has some connections now, he will definitely be on the forefront of the times in the future.
It will go straight to the sky with a bang!
Anyway, Fatty knows his own abilities very well, and he has little chance of surviving in the apocalypse on his own.
It doesn't matter if you are a little less capable, everyone is happy, I call you brother, you call me brother, everyone is happy.
If he is a liar...it would be a good idea to trick him into killing him.
Of course, if there are other changes in the future, let’s talk about it! The most important thing for people is to be flexible.
Ye Xuan looked at the clean road in front of him, narrowed his eyes, and stepped on the accelerator to rush over.
What's there to be afraid of?
Even though the zombie wave is coming, are you still afraid of this few people?
When the fat man saw Ye Xuan put his hands on the heads of the plants and stroked them gently, he knew that he was half right in his bet this time.
You know, he had tried every means before, but he couldn't attract the attention of these plants!
Even after learning that these were plants from Plants vs. Zombies, he went to find a few people to dress up as zombies and dance in front of them...
Ye Xuan listened to the plants talking to him about some of the things that had happened in the past few days, and his face was almost unbearable.
This fat guy... is so naughty!
But now that I'm here, everything must go according to my own plan, and I can't stop following that fat man's routine.
Ye Xuan waved to the fat man, but before he could speak, the fat man ran over.
Ye Xuan:......
You... are so flexible!
"I have requisitioned this place, do you have any objection?"
The fat man nodded quickly to show that he had no objection at all.
Ye Xuan saw that the other party had expressed his position, so he said again:
"In this case, you have to follow my rules from now on. You should go and give instructions to your subordinates first! To avoid any misunderstanding later."
While Fatty kept greeting his men, Ye Xuan kept replanting plants here. Before, he only planted a shallow circle. At most, it was just a circle of land. It couldn't stop the big @ wave of zombies.
attack.
After the fat man finished explaining to his men, he saw plants rising from the ground under Ye Xuan's command.
In an instant, he knew that this thigh was thick and big enough, and he must hug it tightly.
Of course, Ye Xuan's thighs are thick and big, but the hairs on them are also very prickly!
This is something that the survivors at the previous gathering points know best.
Ye Xuan saw that the other party had finished explaining, so he directed the other party to notify the employees to come over for a meeting.
So the fat man panted again and walked towards the employees.
'Damn... zombies!'
Anyway, he would not dare to sit in the sedan in front of Ye Xuan, unless the other person's sedan was more luxurious.
Xuan Jie looked at the fat man's leaving figure and said with emotion:
"It would be great if there were people like this who know current affairs at every gathering point. We would save a lot of trouble."
On the contrary, Xing Yishan on the side had a different view.
"The fewer such fat men, the better. If we hadn't come today, who knows how many people would have died outside his interception circle?"
It seemed that she was still very dissatisfied with the other party's previous behavior of preventing people from entering.
The sum of the two people's attitudes is Ye Xuan's attitude. He is satisfied with the other's understanding of current affairs, but also dissatisfied with the other's new employees who actually want to kill him.
So Ye Xuan abolished this rule in front of everyone and announced that this place belongs to everyone and everyone is eligible to enter.
"Here, I won't criticize anyone by name!"
So the fat man standing on the stage with Ye Xuan looked at Ye Xuan innocently, but he didn't name him, he just pulled him out and shook him around. Of course, with his thick skin, he didn't care about such a trivial matter.
That is to say, the situation is not right now, otherwise he could directly blow up the opponent.
After everyone cheered collectively, Ye Xuan moved the orders from the two previous places.
For example, "work sixteen hours a day", "occasionally need to work overtime", "wages are owed first and will be paid when a monetary system is established" and so on.
Suddenly, the employees below were furious. Even if the fat man was in charge before, they had never experienced such misfortune!
The fat man’s order before was——
'You don't have to work every day, but you need to obey the boss's orders.'
‘Half of the supplies you harvest when you go out is considered as the cost of housing you.’
Comparing the two, Fatty's reputation instantly reached its peak.
Ye Xuan waited for everyone to finish making noise, then smiled and said to them:
"Don't be anxious, everyone. Didn't I say before that this is everyone's place and you can come and go freely? If you don't want to accept this condition, you can leave."
After hearing what Ye Xuan said, everyone in the audience was speechless. Unexpectedly, this guy didn't let up at all and completely ignored everyone's opinions.
And didn’t you also say that this is everyone’s territory?
On the contrary, the fat man on the stage looked at Ye Xuan with admiration.
Is this a capable person? He is so confident! There is no need to compromise like myself.
Later, when Ye Xuan saw that no one mentioned the matter again, he announced the adjournment of the meeting.
After the meeting, no one chose to leave.
And Ye Xuan also started a new round of planting. The location here is not conducive, so naturally he can only make up for it by growing more plants.
However, there is no need to fight hundreds of thousands of zombies like the one in Qingshui Town.
By the time the protective ring here was formed, the sky had gradually turned dark.
"It seems that we can only clear out the zombies in two strongholds every day!"
Ye Xuan's general cleaning plan naturally does not end with establishing a protective circle. He also needs to clean up the surrounding zombies before it is truly over. Otherwise, too many living people will gather together, which will trigger a collective attack by zombies sooner or later.
"Okay! Let's take a rest after cleaning up this wave! It's been a long day of planting plants today, and it's really hard."
As Ye Xuan snapped his fingers, Xing Yishan immediately activated her abilities to the maximum extent.
Needless to say, this ability is much more powerful than her own blood.
Just after she activated her ability, the zombies within a few hundred meters launched a frantic attack on her, even if there was a wall in front of her, they dared to hit her.
Then two zombies knocked him to death.
"Tsk, tsk, what a stupid way to die, so as long as the base is large enough, you can always see all kinds of fresh ways to die."
The most famous among them are those guys who used their own deaths to tell everyone how stupid they are.
Thumb thump thump~
"The zombies are coming! A lot of zombies are coming!"
Suddenly, countless horrifying screams came from the camp.
It seemed that they had never seen the scene before them, and the people in the camp looked at the scene in front of them in horror.
Xing Yishan looked at Ye Xuan helplessly. If this happened now, it was naturally this guy who did it.
The other party also said that it would exercise their courage and increase their knowledge.
But she thought this was just his bad taste.
"Quiet, everyone, be quiet, don't panic! Don't run out of this circle!"
This was naturally not what Ye Xuan said. Since he wanted to exercise the courage of those employees, he would not take the initiative to appease them.
He looked up and saw a fat man constantly weaving in and out of the crowd, constantly comforting everyone.
"Don't be nervous, everyone. The zombies in front of us cannot break through this line of defense. We must have confidence in these plants!"
Ye Xuan looked at the figure of the other party that kept coming and going, and couldn't help but think a little.
"This fat man... is really flexible!"
Xuan Jie looked at the other party's figure and complained.
"Maybe the other person's skin is full of muscles!"
Naturally, you can't just stand in one place when cleaning up zombies, so Ye Xuan took Xing Yishan around for a few times and then returned to the camp.
All of a sudden, there were more and more zombies on the scene, and there were more and more yelling and screaming.
Xing Yishan touched the sweat on her head. Although this was not the first time she had seen this scene, she always felt like she was on the edge of death.
No, to be precise, every time I use my ability, I feel like I'm on the edge of death.
Although it looked spectacular, the zombies actually didn't even touch the edge of the crowd, so after all the zombies died, Ye Xuan asked the employees to collect the corpses of the zombies.
"We have to leave tomorrow morning anyway, so we might as well use this time to kill them."
