Chapter 309 Dodder in the Apocalypse 18
To be honest, Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang were somewhat surprised.
After all, Yun Qing had always acted like she was afraid of death, and she was clearly terrified of ghosts. Yet she still gave the talisman to Feng Yan. That must be true love, right?
As expected, Feng Yan's judgment was excellent.
Feng Yan knew Yun Qing better and knew that although she said she wasn't afraid, she was actually terrified.
He hugged her tightly, then reached out to take Yun Qing's amulet back to her.
He doesn't need it, but it gives her some psychological comfort.
Yun Qing quickly pressed his hand down, "Don't take it, what if she turns into a ghost and comes back to take revenge on you?"
She spoke with such conviction that Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang couldn't help but want to laugh, but after being glared at by Feng Yan, they had no choice but to hold it in.
Feng Yan looked at Yun Qing and asked, "If I wear it, what about you?"
"I……"
Yun Qing's eyes lit up as she thought of something. She raised her hand, shook her wrist, and said, "I have a little black dragon!"
"A dragon! Ghosts would definitely be afraid of that! From now on, it will be my new talisman!"
She spoke with more confidence, clearly less afraid than before.
Feng Yan: ...
He stared at the little black dragon he had created with his own hands, and inexplicably felt that it was not quite right to look at.
"Qingqing, you know ghosts are afraid of thunder, right?"
Yun Qing nodded. It is said that wood struck by lightning is very effective in warding off evil spirits.
"Don't you think I'm more reliable than this fake dragon?"
Yun Qing looked at him, then at Long, then back at him, then back at Long, finally giving him a helpless expression that said, "I can't do anything with you."
"Why are you so competitive? You even have to argue with a fake dragon to see who wins."
"You're the best, okay!"
"Didn't you create this little black dragon? Strictly speaking, you're its father!"
"Don't bother with it."
Feng Yan: ...I didn't want a son like this!
Moreover, he looked at the little black dragon with its chubby belly and felt a bit awkward listening to Yun Qing's words.
Yun Qing insisted on giving up the original amulet, believing that the little black dragon was more effective at warding off evil.
Feng Yan didn't press the matter further.
The two got into the car, which quickly drove away, leaving behind only a charred corpse.
Those who had been watching from inside the shop were terrified and dared not approach them. They could only watch helplessly as they left.
Feng Yan wants to establish a survivor base, so the first thing he needs to do is choose a location.
After looting all the supplies that Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang had their eye on in the vicinity, the four of them found a residential building to stay in temporarily.
Yun Qing sat to one side with snacks in her arms, while Feng Yan and the other two were studying several incredibly detailed maps.
Qi Renyang pointed to a spot and said, "This is the place Xu Yang has her eye on. I have to say, she has a good eye. This place is indeed quite suitable for establishing a base."
Zhou Yue nodded and said, "This place is indeed nice, and it's not too far from here. Xu Yang is injured, so he probably won't be able to get there so quickly. What do you think? Should we get there first?"
Feng Yan looked at the map without speaking. After a while, he reached out and pointed to a spot on another map, saying, "Here."
Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang looked down and realized he was also pointing to a military base, but...
Qi Renyang frowned. "This has crossed provincial borders!"
Zhou Yue also didn't quite understand. "In the current situation, if we go this far, we don't know how much time it will take, or whether the road will be passable. There are also many dangers on the road, and by the time we get there, the place will probably have already been occupied."
Clearly, they still felt that the military base Xu Yang had his eye on was the better choice.
Although Xu Yang had her eye on it, it wasn't like she could just take it and it was hers; it was first come, first served!
Feng Yan said, "The military base that Xu Yang is interested in focuses more on high technology in terms of defense, but under the current circumstances, many high-tech things are no longer usable, and we don't have the talent in this area right now."
"If we go there, the walls aren't high enough, and once the zombies evolve a little, their defenses won't be strong enough."
"The one in the neighboring province, on the other hand, is surrounded by high walls and is completely enclosed, making it more suitable for resisting zombies. It is also larger in area, so there will be more room to grow fruits and vegetables and raise livestock."
"Regarding high-tech things, if we can find talented people, we can naturally use them. If we can't find talented people, we can still study the various uses of superpowers."
This inspiration came from his time taking care of Yun Qing and making that zombie crystal core for her.
Superpowers aren't limited to simply throwing them at zombies.
Feng Yan glanced at Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang, and then said, "If the zombies were stronger than we could handle, I would definitely choose the one closer to us and not take the risk. But now we have the strength to fight back, so we can naturally consider our survival situation more."
"Besides, you also have families."
"I have no other ties besides Yun Qing now, but it's different for you."
“Yunqing’s parents live in the next province, which is closer to your hometown. It will be easier for you to find your family in the future.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang paused for a moment and fell silent.
They all have parents and relatives. The apocalypse suddenly broke out, and now they have no idea how they are doing. How could they not worry about them?
There's no other way; my only option now is to survive so I can have a chance to search.
Qi Renyang calmed himself down and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's go there!"
Zhou Yue said, "That place is indeed nice, and there must be others who want it too. If someone else takes it first, will we just rob it?"
Feng Yan said nonchalantly, "If the base leader is capable, then we'll follow him; if he's not, then the capable will take over!"
In short, we can't let Yunqing suffer and be wronged with him.
He actually felt that the military base was not so easily abandoned, and perhaps it was still a pristine place.
However, he only thought about it and didn't have high expectations.
After finalizing the next course of action, Qi Renyang asked with some curiosity, "Feng Yan, how come you seem to know so much about military bases? I've never noticed you being interested in military matters before?"
Feng Yan said calmly, "If my family hadn't suddenly gone bankrupt and I hadn't needed to pay off debts, I would have applied to military academy back then."
So it's not that he's not interested in these things, but rather that he has no choice but to let them go.
Yun Qing had been listening to their conversation and her eyes were already red from missing her parents. Now, hearing Feng Yan's words, tears streamed down her face.
She didn't say anything, just ate while wiping away tears.
After taking two bites, I suddenly stopped.
Seeing her cry, Feng Yan was about to comfort her when Yun Qing suddenly stuffed the snacks in her hand into his arms, choking back tears, "Feng Yan, eat more, look how thin you are..."
"You've really... suffered so much—"
"puff……"
Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang couldn't help but laugh.
Although Feng Yan was busy with his studies, earning money to pay off his debts, and taking care of the little princess every few days, it was indeed very hard work.
But when Yun Qing said that, her voice trailed off with a sob, and her pitiful look in her eyes made people want to laugh for some reason.
It was definitely the right decision to act with Feng Yan.
Previously, when they were with Xu Yang's team, they were always on edge, but now, although they were still facing a terrible apocalypse, they felt much more relaxed.
Especially since there's my sister-in-law, a cheerful person who loves to cry.
Strangely enough, although she was always crying, it didn't make people feel depressed or uncomfortable, nor did it annoy them. On the contrary, it was quite funny.
It might be because she's like a child; tears come easily, but once she's done crying, she's fine again and is happy as soon as she has something to eat.
Sometimes his thought process is so strange that it makes people laugh.
Being around them is very relaxing.
How come they never noticed before that their sister-in-law is actually quite cute?
They thought Yun Qing was cute, but Yun Qing thought Feng Yan was right, those two must have something wrong with them.
She was so heartbroken, and they were still laughing and joking around!
Feng Yan had no time to pay attention to Zhou Yue and Qi Renyang; he was gripping the snacks in his hand, feeling anxious and uncertain.
Yun Qing was willing to give him her favorite snacks, and she was so scared before, but she even gave him her amulet. Does that mean she really likes him a little?
