Ah-Tu was shocked. He took a step back and subconsciously released his superpower. When he saw that it was a person and not something else, he let out a sigh of relief. "We are the search team from the S City survivor base. We are passing by. Can we stay here for the night?"
The man looked at Atu up and down with a strange look, then grinned. "Okay, okay. But what is a survivor base?"
Atu looked around and said, "Can we go in first, and then I will explain to you?"
"Come in." The man stepped back and let Shao Qing and the others in. Shao Qing frowned. She always felt that the man in front of her looked at people strangely, but she couldn't tell why.
After entering, Shao Qing and the others found that it was a sizable courtyard. There was a skinny woman holding a child in the yard, looking at the door with dull eyes.
She only wore a loose coat, and most of her breasts were exposed to the air. From her neck to her exposed chest, there were bruises all over.
When Shao Qing and the others came to her side, the woman held the child in her arms in panic and murmured, "Don't eat my child, don't eat my child …"
Shao Qing found that the child in her arms was not a child at all, but a dirty quilt with a small pillow wrapped in it.
Shao Qing's eyes quickly became cold, but she didn't say anything. The man who led the way hurriedly said, "She is a lunatic. The child was eaten by the man who turned her into a zombie. We took her in because she was pitiful."
"I think it's because she's pretty," the man in the couple muttered. Then, he was slapped by his wife.
After entering the house, the man who led the way shouted, "Boss, people from the survivor base are here." As his voice fell, several cold eyes fell on Shao Qing and the others.
There were quite a few people in the room. Most of them were very skinny and wore ragged clothes. However, the boss that the man spoke of was dressed in clean and tidy clothes. He looked like a decent human being.
"Survivor base?" The boss walked over. He looked decent, but he had a pair of triangular eyes. When he smiled, his eyes squinted. No matter how you looked at him, he looked sinister.
After coming over, he smoked several cigarettes and handed one to Atu, one to Gu Chuan, one to the man in the couple, and one to Yan Hanqing. Gu Chuan and Yan Hanqing didn't take it, but Atu and the man took it.
Atu smiled and took it. "Since the apocalypse, I don't know how long it has been since I last smoked."
Atu was telling the truth. In the apocalypse, people couldn't even eat, let alone smoke...
The boss took a lighter and lit it for Atu. Then he shook the cigarette box and smiled. "Beautiful ladies, do you want one too?"
Gu Panpan and the woman quickly shook their heads and waved their hands to show that they didn't smoke. The boss didn't force them. He smiled and said, "I also heard that there is a well-built survivor base in front of us. I always wanted to take my brothers there, but there are too many of us. We don't know how many of our brothers will die on the way there, so we didn't dare to move. Now that I met you, you must be capable. Can you escort us to the base?"
The man in the couple patted his chest and said, "No problem!"
Not to mention Gu Chuan, even Gu Panpan frowned at his rash answer. She complained that he spoke too quickly.
"In that case, that's the best. Please come in and have a good rest. We will leave tomorrow." The boss asked the man who led them to the room to rest.
When the man left, Gu Panpan said, "Why did you agree so quickly?"
"Anyway, it's good for us to take the survivors back." The man said naturally. "It's not troublesome to take them back."
"It's troublesome." Gu Chuan said coldly.
"What do you mean?" The man was stunned. Gu Chuan didn't want to talk to him. He went straight to the corner and sat down. Shao Qing also found a place to sit with Yan Hanqing.
The man was a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything.
Soon, it was evening. Someone knocked on the door and invited Shao Qing and the others to come over for dinner. The few of them went out. Shao Qing took the little bun out of the basket and held him in her arms. She then took the milk bottle out of her bag.
It wasn't milk powder in the bottle. It was chicken soup that she had boiled before she came. She had removed the layer of oil on top. Little Bao didn't even need to heat it up. He wasn't an ordinary person, so he wasn't afraid of getting cold.
Little Bao didn't want to let go of the bottle. Shao Qing sat down at the table. There were two people sitting at the table. One was the boss, and the other was a young man who looked like a gangster. The others were sitting in the corner eating dry food.
"There's meat!" The young couple's eyes were filled with excitement. After all, after the apocalypse, they rarely had the chance to eat meat.
There was not only meat on the table, but also vegetables. There were four dishes and a soup.
Although this configuration was nothing in the past, in the post-apocalyptic world, it was already a very luxurious meal.
The boss made an inviting gesture and said, "Everyone came from afar. You're all guests. Please sit down."
Gu Chuan, his sister, and Shao Qing looked at each other. They saw the temperature in each other's eyes gradually drop. Only the young couple and Ah-Tu were still very happy.
"Let's eat. Don't be shy." The boss smiled and put a piece of meat in Shao Qing's bowl.
