She went out on Mrs. Jiang's electric bicycle, and there were many shopping bags stuffed in the storage box of the bicycle.
When the time comes, I'll see where it's more convenient and switch to the solar-powered van in the system warehouse, which has a lot of cargo space.
When she was leaving the community, the security captain stopped her: "Ms. Xu, you just came back and are you going out again? It's not peaceful outside now, so try not to go out. If there is no food at home, there is some at the self-service supermarket, which is enough for us in a short time." Purchased by the community owner.”
Xu Yin thanked him for his kind reminder and finally said: "I'm worried that there will be more chaos later, so I'll stock up on more things now. Don't worry, I've taken precautions."
To be honest, the items in the self-service supermarket are not as good as 10% of the goods in her system warehouse. Leave them to those who need them more.
Before Xu Yin left the community, she sprayed herself with a bottle of traditional Chinese medicine fragrance that the animals disliked as usual. The animals hid away as soon as they smelled the smell, and the sperm-like plants hit her with whip-like branches. No pain or itching either.
In this way, we galloped all the way to the nearby complex.
When the mutation first occurred, many people chose to hide at home and did not dare to come out. But seeing the situation becoming more and more serious, I couldn't help but worry that the food at home wouldn't last for a few days, so I plucked up the courage to go downstairs to purchase supplies.
Stores and supermarkets are overcrowded.
Although the official has repeatedly emphasized that the stockpiles of supplies are definitely enough for the people to tide over this difficulty, so everyone should purchase wisely and not rob.
But who believes it?
The sun went into a total eclipse without warning, then suddenly turned into a blood sun, and animals and plants collectively mutated... Who knows what other weird phenomena will appear in the future. If we don’t move more supplies home, who will have peace of mind?
In particular, there are many people in the middle who are looking for opportunities to fish in troubled waters and want to disrupt order.
No, everyone was queuing up in an orderly manner at first. As more and more people poured into the supermarket, the cashiers were overwhelmed, and those with evil intentions were exposed. They picked up a lot of things and went straight to the supermarket. Ran.
A few people took the lead in doing this, and the situation became chaotic. It was useless to call the police. The police all went out to deal with the mutated animals and plants. In just three days, the mall's management system collapsed.
There are also some people who live in relatively old communities. The doors and windows of their homes have been beaten into disarray by long-standing vegetation. No one can live in their homes. The official shelters such as schools are already full, and the air-raid shelters are too far away. How to get there by car? I simply came to the mall to build a floor.
Although Xu Yin had expected that shopping malls and supermarkets would be robbed to a great extent, she didn't expect that there were still people building floors in the complex, and they seemed to claim this place as their own.
Did they only consider mutant plants and not mutant animals? Although the complex was newly built in the past two years, there are pet hospitals and pet clubs in the surrounding shops. If the mutated pets there break out, what use will they be hiding in the complex? The floor-to-ceiling glass door was shattered in minutes.
She hesitated to remind them. Suddenly, the crowd screamed: "Ah! What the hell is this!"
A spider crawling on the ceiling, whether it had just reached the age of mutation, suddenly expanded and turned into a giant spider. It fell down and hit a group of people on the head, scaring the people around them into screaming.
Only then did everyone realize with horror: The complex is not 100% safe. This time it was a spider, and who knows what will come out next time.
You can escape the mutant plants, but you can't escape the mutant animals. Does this mean you can escape the first day of the Lunar New Year but not the fifth day of the Lunar New Year?
In this case, who would dare to lay down on the floor here? They all picked up their luggage and ran out of the door.
Women were screaming, children were crying, men were cursing... the scene was extremely chaotic.
Xu Yin always remembers - don't go to crowded places!
When I saw so many people, I immediately turned around and went to the shop in the annex building.
This place is much deserted compared to the main building and surrounding shops.
In the past, the merchants here were eager for customers to come here to shop, so they often posted leaflets at the entrance of the complex. But now, not a single store is open.
Especially stores selling food, whether they are supermarkets, food stalls or bakeries, are not only closed, but looking through the glass doors, the shelves are almost empty.
The same goes for a drugstore at the intersection, with only a few empty shelves left.
Medicines and the like are either sold out before closing, or kept by bosses and store clerks for their own use.
With the current chaos, everyone wants to stock up on supplies for emergencies.
Xu Yin's trip was in vain.
Even if you were mentally prepared that you might not be able to buy anything before coming, who would have thought that you would be left empty-handed?
How can this work!
She stopped lingering, found an empty surveillance corner, and released the van.
This van is a dual-use solar and electric van. The appearance is not much different from an ordinary van, but it has a large space inside and relatively complete functions. It can automatically control the temperature according to the surrounding environment.
Even if there are traffic police on the road, they are busy dealing with mutated animals and plants and have no time to check whether the car owners on the road have driver's licenses.
Xu Yin tied Mrs. Jiang's small electric donkey to the roof of the van and tried her best to avoid the old neighborhoods with more vegetation, but boldly drove home along the newly expanded road.
If you really can't avoid it, you run over the dancing branches.
Those vegetation not only have souls, but also seem to have developed five senses. They can feel pain and close their branches when it hurts.
Not only she, but some residents also noticed this discovery. They spontaneously organized a team of volunteers, wielding watermelon knives, and working hard to cut down the branches of the long-standing vegetation on both sides of the road.
From now on, this scene will probably become the norm in life.
Xu Yin looked at the scene outside the car window and felt sad.
On the way back to the community, she put the supplies in the system warehouse into the car one by one.
The shopping list made by Mrs. Jiang is basically daily necessities, commonly used medicines, rice, flour, grains and oils, and she has them all.
In addition to the commonly used medicines, I also took out a box of traditional Chinese medicine for strengthening my body that I brewed in my own small world of Chinese medicine. I also grabbed a few portions of each Chinese medicinal material, so I could drink it and boil it again.
This traditional Chinese medicine pack is mainly used to improve immunity and is quite effective against common viruses.
Disinfectant, iodophor, alcohol cotton balls, gauze and other nursing supplies are also available.
In addition, she also took out a large bag of vegetable and fruit seeds that would last her a lifetime, as well as farm tools for growing vegetables.
I am afraid that for a long time to come, I will have to grow my own vegetables, and the supply of fresh vegetables on the market will most likely be cut off. And what can people do if they don’t eat green vegetables? You can only be self-sufficient.
Fortunately, Xu Yin quite likes growing vegetables. For her, this has already surpassed her major and has become a common occupation in various small worlds.
She was also glad that Xu's house was a single-family villa with front and rear gardens, rather than a high-rise residence, otherwise she would have no chance of planting.
