Hearing Lu Xinyi's words, Zhou Yan's expression suddenly became serious and asked: "Boss, what's the matter?"
Lu Xinyi first told him the origins of Zhang Xiao and others, and then said: "I want you to lead everyone in practicing the ability to kill zombies."
Although her base has an automatic defense system, and the defense can be upgraded through skill points, she is not afraid of anything less than ten thousand.
If one day the base is in danger, all members must have the ability to kill zombies.
Zhou Yan understood her intention and nodded: "Don't worry, boss, I will teach everyone!"
Farewell to Zhou Yan, Lu Xinyi drove back to the safe house.
On the way back, she asked the system to include the food storage depot she went to into the base.
Although the grain depot is in another city, how could she miss the opportunity to earn points?
Even if the grain depot is robbed in the future, her points will not be reduced. A business that is sure to make money without losing money should not be wasted.
As a result, she earned 100,000 points.
Including hunting zombies to exchange for crystal cores, etc., she got a total of about 110,000 points during this grain depot operation.
Currently, her remaining total points are: 419021.
After returning to the safe house, as soon as she walked into the living room, Lu Xinyi smelled a fragrance wafting from the kitchen, which made her index fingers twitch.
She hurriedly walked into the kitchen and saw Qin Xian wearing an apron, holding a pot in one hand and a spatula in the other, and was concentrating on cooking.
Qin Xian is very tall. In the past two months, due to a lot of physical exercise, his body has become much stronger. He is no longer the frail and thin look he had when she first met him.
Although he is still less than nineteen years old, his youthfulness has faded a lot, and he gradually reveals a mature and steady temperament.
Sensing her gaze, Qin Xian turned back to look at her. The original indifferent look on his face was instantly replaced by joy.
A pair of dark brown eyes were still full of simplicity and innocence.
Lu Xinyi couldn't help but curl his lips.
She was just thinking to herself that Qin Xian was much more mature and stable now, but when he turned around, he smiled at her like a child.
"What are you cooking for?" She stepped forward to take a look, "Zi Jiang Roast Duck?"
"Yes." Qin Xian nodded and continued to stir-fry with his hands, "what you like to eat."
Lu Xinyi chuckled when he heard this, "It's indeed what I like to eat. What other dishes are there?"
"Sauerkraut fish, stir-fried broccoli, fish-flavored eggplant."
"Not bad, not bad." Lu Xinyi nodded with satisfaction and suddenly felt a little hungry.
Ever since Qin Xian learned to cook, he has been responsible for the cooking work. She just waits to eat.
Gradually, Qin Xian also learned about her preferences and would cook her favorite dishes every now and then.
It has to be said that Qin Xian is very talented in cooking, and his cooking skills are getting better and better nowadays.
"Where's Forsythia?" Lu Xinyi asked casually, following Qin Xian's eyes.
"upstairs."
"Then I'll go upstairs to find her."
After saying this, Lu Xinyi strode upstairs and found Xia Lianqiao in a bedroom on the second floor.
Xia Lianqiao was sitting by the bed with a photo album on her legs. She was looking at the photo album intently and did not notice Lu Xinyi's arrival.
It wasn't until Lu Xinyi sat next to her that she turned around.
"Sister, when did you come back?"
"Just came back." Lu Xinyi replied with a smile, pointing to a photo in the album, and said, "This is a photo of you when you were three years old. At that time, my grandparents had just moved to this house, and my mother took you and me. I held a simple housewarming party for my grandparents.”
Xia Lianqiao listened to her words and tried to recall what happened back then, but because she was too young at the time, she couldn't remember it at all.
The two sisters stood side by side and continued to look through the photo album.
As he watched, Lu Xinyi suddenly heard a slight cry from beside him.
She turned around and saw Xia Lianqiao pressing her lips tightly, trying hard not to cry, but her eyes were red and a tear fell down with a pop.
"Why are you crying?" She put her arm around Xia Lianqiao's shoulders and stroked her black hair.
Xia Lianqiao leaned in her arms, finally couldn't help crying, and choked up: "Sister, I miss my mother, I miss my grandparents."
Hearing her words, Lu Xinyi didn't know how to answer.
My grandparents died a few years ago, and my mother lost all contact after the apocalypse.
Patting Xia Lianqiao's back, she comforted her softly: "Forsythia, be good. My sister is here, and she will protect you."
"Sister..." Xia Lianqiao hugged her thin waist with both hands, leaned into her warm arms and cried loudly.
After all, she is just a 14-year-old child. Facing this devastated apocalypse, it is normal for her to have an emotional breakdown.
Maybe it would be better to cry out loud.
Xia Lianqiao cried for a long time until her eyes were swollen before she stopped crying, but she still couldn't stop sobbing and choking.
"Okay, don't cry." Lu Xinyi smiled and said, "Look, I'm crying like a cat."
She gently wiped away the tears on Xia Lianqiao's face and comforted her softly, "If you have anything to do in the future, just tell my sister, you know?"
"Yes." Xia Lianqiao nodded obediently, raised her eyes and looked at Lu Xinyi firmly, "Sister, don't worry, I will work hard to become stronger, and I also want to protect my sister!"
Lu Xinyi felt warm in her heart. She smoothed her messy hair around her ears and said softly, "Okay, you protect my sister."
After the apocalypse came in her previous life, she had no chance to see her sister again, but in this life, God favored her and allowed her to reunite with her sister.
Then, she must protect her sister's safety at all costs.
…
Earth calendar year 223, September 26th.
It has been almost four months since the end of the world.
And today is the first Mid-Autumn Festival after the end of the world.
Early in the morning, Lu Xinyi drove Qin Geng and Xia Lianqiao to Taoyuan Village.
"The boss is here!"
"Boss, happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"
As soon as they saw the familiar off-road vehicle approaching, everyone gathered around and greeted Lu Xinyi and the other three enthusiastically.
Lu Xinyi also had a bright smile on his face and said, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I brought some gifts for everyone."
She waved her hand, and more than twenty large cardboard boxes appeared in front of everyone.
There are several very cartoon boxes among them, and you can tell at a glance that they are for children.
The box was distributed to everyone, and everyone couldn't wait to open it and take a look.
"Wow, it's new clothes! Mom, look, it's new clothes!"
"Candy! I like to eat candy the most! Thank you, boss! You are so kind, boss!"
"Is this tea? Or a good tea like Biluochun! I didn't dare to drink such expensive tea before the end of the world, but I didn't expect that I can drink such expensive and good tea now!"
Seeing everyone's expressions of excitement and joy, Lu Xinyi couldn't help but smile.
At this moment, Tian Ming's voice from the communication room came from the walkie-talkie she carried with her -
"Boss, there is a message from Dawn Base."
