"Brother, I want to see the apocalypse outside with you..." Qi Yiruo finally spoke to Zhang Xu. It was not difficult to find Zhang Xu. After all, there were hundreds or not thousands of robots in the villa. All he had to do was give an order. Knowing Zhang Xu's whereabouts, Zhang Xu is an evolver, and it is safer to follow him.
Zhang Xu, who was sitting cross-legged on the roof of the building, had his back to Qi Yiruo. His figure was like a high wall, making it impossible to see what was inside him.
"The apocalypse outside is so scary. Apart from disgusting zombies and terrifying mutant creatures, the most terrifying thing is the human heart, because we don't know what other people are thinking in their minds. People are fickle... Sister Yiruo, I I'm afraid you're not ready yet~ Alas!" Zhang Xu turned around, a pair of deep pupils filled with a gloomy color, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and sighed.
"I'm ready, believe me~" Qi Yiruo had a look of determination on her little head, and raised her clenched pink fist in front of Zhang Xu's face.
"There are no laws or systems outside, only the law of the jungle. The saying "survival of the fittest" will never go out of style! No one will be grateful because you give them food, but they will take it for granted. Trust me, as long as you keep your kindness, you can Go see the outside world..." Zhang Xu's eyes lit up like a torch, looking at the agile girl in front of him.
Qi Yiruo still had that confidence on her face. She always believed that she could adapt to the apocalypse outside. The two were silent for a moment, and Zhang Xu spoke first: "Well, assuming you went out to search for supplies and returned to the base, the food you returned can satisfy you. "You've been drinking for a week, and when a child who hasn't eaten in two days walks up to you and asks for a bite of food, what do you do?"
"Of course I gave him food. My food is enough for me to eat for a week..." Qi Yiruo gave the answer in her heart with big eyes.
"Hmph, wrong, totally wrong! Do you know? I once gave someone a bag of biscuits. What do you think happened to him?" Zhang Xu's eyes seemed to be unpredictable, and he said expressionlessly on his tight face. , leaning against the stone pillar behind him.
"Did he just pick up the cookies and leave without thanking you?"
"he died……"
"Ah~!?" Qi Yiruo opened his mouth in surprise, as if he could fit an egg in.
"Do you know why?"
Qi Yiruo shook his head. Did the person asking for food make his elder brother angry?
"I gave that person a pack of biscuits, and others gathered around me to ask for them. Of course I don't have so many. If I gave them to them, do you think you would have enough food for a week?"
"Why did that man die?"
"I had no food, and they couldn't beat me. Naturally, I went to rob the person who had food, and was beaten to death... and the biscuits in my hand disappeared."
"Then those who manage the base won't punish these murderers?"
"Haha, they managers are enjoying their time in the base and don't care about their lives or deaths at all. Instead, they hope that these cowardly people and useless old people and children in the base will die as many times as possible, so that we can The base should be cleaner.”
"Then the higher ups don't care?" Qi Yiruo's group belongs to the red forces.
"They also want to take care of it, but do you know how many such bases there are in our country? The weak can only be eliminated. Do you know what happened to the person who asked me for food?"
"Bodies are littered everywhere and no one cares?"
"Wrong, those hungry people want to eat this corpse..."
"Ugh~" Qi Yiruo's face turned pale when he heard this, and he was even more reminded of that scene. The meal he had eaten at noon seemed to be pouring out, his stomach was churning, and a feeling of vomiting followed.
"They have no food, so they only eat each other like this. I even heard someone ate his wife..."
"Stop talking, stop talking, big brother..." Qi Yiruo took a few steps back and waved his hands quickly.
"I just want to tell you that you can't give charity to others at will. It may seem like you have saved that person, but in fact it will shorten his life..." Zhang Xu turned around and stared at the blue sky, which was cloudless, and the mirror-like lake surface was rippling with microwaves. , the rustling willow trees by the lake are luminous green, like a pleasant girl fluttering in the wind, waving her skirts and waving to you.
"I..." Qi Yiruo wanted to say it, but the words seemed to stick to her lips and she couldn't speak. There was confusion in her eyes. Am I really suitable for this apocalypse?
Qi Yiruo stood behind Zhang Xu, like a tall and majestic bamboo. Even the violent wind and rain could not make it teeter on the cliff.
…
"Huh?" A pair of warm jade-like arms approached from behind and hugged his steel-like waist. Zhang Xu turned around in confusion, and Qi Yiruo's head was close to Zhang Xu's chest, her hot cheeks Blushing.
"Big brother, do you know? After the end of the world, the life and death of the family are confusing and cannot be connected. Uncle Qi Li and brother Qi Xing who took care of me are all dead. Now you are the only one around me...I, I don't want to leave big brother , staying alone on the island." Qi Yiruo said hoarsely, tears gradually overflowing from his eyes.
Letting his chest wet with tears, Zhang Xu looked up at the sky, closed his eyes tightly, and slowly wrapped his arms around Qi Yiruo's petite figure and patted her back.
"Okay, I'll take you with me, but I have three requirements: First, listen to me in everything I say. Second, protect yourself!"
"What about the third request?" Qi Yiruo raised her white face and looked at each other at close range with Zhang Xulai. There was only a gap between the two, and her little face became even redder.
"Let's think about the third one. We'll leave early tomorrow morning!"
…
"Brother, ah~ it's so early!" Qi Yiruo rubbed her eyes and yawned. In front of the table were plates of hearty breakfast, including milk, sandwiches, fried eggs and bacon, and chocolate oatmeal porridge. This table alone , is already considered a top-notch breakfast in the apocalypse, but these are commonplace for Qi Yiruo. These are breakfasts simply cooked by robots.
"As I said, I set off early this morning. I've had breakfast. And once you leave the island, you won't be able to eat these foods as before. You can only eat biscuits as hard as rocks sometimes like us. Expired snacks, moldy bread, smelly water, canned food with heavy additives." Zhang Xu didn't lie to Qi Yiruo, he had eaten these himself, walking with his companions on the train track without fresh food, without the meat of mutated creatures. , everyone can only go hungry sometimes, and the small villages passing by are full of expired or even moldy biscuits, so they just wipe off the green mold on them and eat them.
If there is no water, take some clean river water. Now in the 23rd century, almost all rivers have been polluted by factory drainage pipes. Even if the water is boiled, there will be heavy metals!
"Well, I'm not afraid of hardship!"
"Okay, after finishing this meal, let's set off!"
Zhang Xu turned off all the electricity. Only the huge icehouse filled with food still retained electricity. The outermost animated pattern exterior wall did not only have the single function of changing patterns. It was also a particle solar panel. The ordinary ones are thinner, but can more easily absorb photons after solar radiation, thereby generating heat energy.
