174. Heads for Sale
There is a lot of food stored in the warehouse over the port, and there is also a large supermarket there, but it is too far away and is not convenient.
What he wanted to get this time was not bread or instant noodles, but rice, and the weight was not at the same level.
After asking his girlfriend the location of the supermarket she mentioned, Xia Yi walked upstairs to find Xia Lingqing.
Xia Lingqing was not in the room, and the woman living with her said she was on the rooftop. Xia Yi came to the rooftop with doubts and met Xia Lingqing.
The other party was wearing a straw hat and a hoe, facing the loess and the scorching sun above his head, bending down to plow the land.
"???"
If it weren't for the fact that his girlfriend was still in the backpack, Xia Yi would have thought that he had traveled through time again.
This style of painting suddenly seemed a bit outrageous.
Xia Yi came to Xia Lingqing and watched her plow the ground and scatter the seeds in the soil.
"What are you doing?" Xia Yi asked.
Xia Lingqing finished scattering the seeds on her hand and said seriously to Xia Yi: "I'll see if I can plant the land. The food will eventually be exhausted."
"You are quite far-sighted." Xia Yi looked at it twice and then lost interest.
The girlfriend with the brain doesn't need to eat, and neither does the little furball. As for his food problem, that is something that the girlfriend with the brain and the little furball should consider.
"You came just in time. Help me find some fertilizers and seeds. If you are still free, help me dig the soil below." Xia Lingqing put away the farm tools and washed her hands in the bucket next to her.
Facing Xia Yi's suspicious gaze, she put her hands on her hips and said, "I also did farm work back then. I just grew some vegetables. It's easy to get what you want!"
Xia Yi looked away and asked, "Where are the fertilizers and seeds?"
"I have a map." Xia Lingqing took out her phone and clicked on the map.
Before the network was blocked, Xia Lingqing cached the map of Henglian City, so it can still be used now.
Seeing such a good thing, Xia Yi was naturally not polite. He exchanged cell phones with Xia Lingqing and asked her about the nearby supermarket.
"That supermarket," Xia Lingqing shook her head, "When Henglian City fell, a group of soldiers ransacked it."
"Soldier?" Xia Yi grasped the key point.
"They are all dead. Anyone who dared to shoot is dead." Xia Lingqing said.
"Where else is the supermarket intact?" Xia Yi asked again.
Xia Lingqing collected those places on the map one by one.
"Be careful." She said seriously when handing the phone to Xia Yi.
"I know." Xia Yi took the phone and returned to the room to prepare.
Jiang Ying was a little discouraged. She said that she knew the nearby supermarket and wanted to help, but she didn't expect that the supermarket had been raided. If Xia Yi hadn't asked Xia Lingqing, the trip would have been in vain, but she was not helping.
"You only need to be responsible for brainwashing the zombies." Xia Yi comforted her.
Jiang Ying was silent, not satisfied with this, she wanted to be more useful.
Xia Yi thought for two seconds, then lifted her up and kissed her.
"What are you doing!" Head asked in embarrassment.
"Another function." After saying that, Xia Yi put her into the backpack and walked downstairs.
Jiang Ying lay at the bottom of the backpack. She felt sweet for a while, but then gradually felt something was not right.
What is the use of it for kissing?
She shook her head and bumped Xia Yi's back. Xia Yi walked to a quiet place, opened his backpack and asked what was wrong, but she protested silently.
Xia Yi was experienced and saw that his girlfriend was losing her temper, so he put her back in the backpack and pretended that nothing happened.
Henglian City is not a big city. There are only four large supermarkets, one has been raided, and there are three left. The nearest one is an hour's drive away. The drive here is by bicycle.
The tricycle used for the past two days was still well placed downstairs. Xia Yi got on the tricycle and headed over there.
There were no accidents in the process of searching for food. Xia Yi rode several times and brought a large amount of food before it got completely dark, and also brought a reserve of snacks for himself.
In the evening, he poured a cup of Coke, installed the game on the mobile hard drive, and started playing the game with satisfaction.
The next day, he slept until midnight, went to get fertilizer and seeds for Xia Lingqing, then put on a mask, changed clothes, and began to provide warmth to the survivors in the city.
…
On the rooftop of a certain community, a man took a deep breath, moved his steps, and stood on the edge of the rooftop.
He ate all the edible food at home, whether it was good or expired, and the meat on the balcony was boiled and eaten.
Now, he has been hungry for three days.
He knew for the first time that hunger was so painful, and if there was no accident, this would be his last time.
Downstairs, five or six zombies were swaying with terrifying faces, but he was not afraid now.
He took out the last half of a biscuit from his pocket and put it in his mouth. This was his last lunch.
After eating the cookies, he became even hungrier. He closed his eyes, raised his feet, and was about to jump off the rooftop.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Boss, do you want some goods?"
This was the first time in two months that the man heard someone else's voice. At this moment, the desire for life was revived in his heart. He couldn't wait to turn around and see who the other person was.
But once he had the hope of living, he also had the fear of death. When he saw the zombies downstairs, his legs couldn't help but soften and he slid down the rooftop.
"Ah——!" He reached out hurriedly to grab the edge, but failed.
He thought he was finished, but unexpectedly, a hand grabbed him.
Xia Yi picked up the man and placed him on the ground.
The man was stunned for three seconds and thanked him repeatedly.
"Go indoors first, the spider zombies are coming soon." Xia Yi said.
The man lived on the top floor, and when he closed the door, the roar of spider zombies sounded outside.
He was so frightened that he quickly locked the lock and then turned to look at Xia Yi.
"Who are you?" He didn't understand why Xia Yi suddenly appeared behind him.
"I'm a seller." Xia Yi opened the zipper of her satchel and took out a bag of rice.
The man's eyes suddenly straightened. He stared at Mi, just like he stared at his wife on their wedding night, and a stronger desire than that night welled up in his heart.
This desire made his mouth water and his whole body feel hot.
"One hundred and one bags, settle in cash." Xia Yi said.
"Can I use money? Just one hundred at a time?" the man said excitedly.
Xia Yi ignored the strange quantifier and nodded.
The man rushed into the bedroom, rummaged through the cabinets, found his wallet, and bought the bag of rice.
He held Mi more carefully than he held a child, he touched Mi more affectionately than he touched his wife, and the light in his eyes was brighter than first love.
Xia Yi was a little scared and said hurriedly: "If you want to continue trading, hang a larger white cloth outside the window. I will come next time when I pass by. This is a zombie prevention manual. It costs ten yuan a piece."
The zombie prevention manual was written by someone from Kelan's apartment. He charged the man another ten yuan and left the place quickly.
"Is that man a pervert like you?" Jiang Ying's voice appeared in Xia Yi's mind, "Does he like Mi?"
"I'm not a pervert!" Xia Yi retorted.
Jiang Ying snorted and stopped talking.
