Dont Be A Kept Man - Chapter 161

People who can live in the central area have a certain strength, and naturally they will not lack such a little material. Pei Ran directly placed the stall in the outer area, spread a plastic sheet on the side of the road, and put food for sale, plus two A small bench is all alive.

There are the largest number of instant noodles. Pei Ran’s piles are divided into categories, which are as high as half a person. There are loose snacks next to them, and a large basket is filled. He and Qu Yan are sitting next to them. One is responsible for entertaining guests, and the other is responsible for collecting crystals. nuclear.

Qu Yan wore a baseball cap and a black high-collar sweater. The upper half of his face was hidden in the shadows, and the lower half of his face was hidden in the collar. Cold strangers should not come near. He saw Pei Ran playing games with his head down, stretched out his hand and pulled. His sleeve: “Why sell it?”

Now, except for the communication device dedicated to the base, the network is basically paralyzed, and nothing can be played, but the game like Xiaoxiaole is still possible. Pei Ran temporarily stopped the progress of the game after hearing this, moved his gaze away from the screen, and looked at Qu Yan: “Why not sell it?”

Qu Yan did not share this idea, not to mention that in the end times when supplies are scarce, it is of course best to keep food in our own hands: “We keep and eat for ourselves.”

Pei Ran couldn’t help but laughed. He put away the phone, lifted the brim of Qu Yan’s hat, and said patiently: “But there are so many things, we can’t finish it.”

The space is in Pei Ran’s hands. Only he knows how huge materials are stored in it. However, the space does not have the function of keeping fresh. As time goes by, the food inside will gradually become corrupted.

The limited condition is to restrain human desires. If the space can preserve food and never degenerate, Pei Ran will only desperately store things in it, and will not think of taking it out.

Can’t finish…

Even if Qu Yan can’t finish eating, throwing it away won’t make others cheaper, but he doesn’t say such things in front of Pei Ran. He just lay silently on the opponent’s lap, quietly feeling the cold wind sweeping across his skin inch by inch. Cold feeling.

Pei Ran was wearing a loose, light-colored sweater with warm palms. He put his furry sleeves against Qu Yan’s face, as if feeling consciously: “Autumn is coming.”

The high-level base of the base has opened up a small area in the scientific research room to try out food. Maybe in a few years, they will be able to temporarily alleviate the food shortage problem. Humans have survived on this land for thousands of years, and there is no reason to fall now. .

There are many people watching around the stall, most of them are ordinary people with no abilities, their eyes are fixed on the colorful packaging bags, some of them want to buy them, but they are worried about the high price Step out.

Pei Ran’s location is not fixed, he always counts wherever he goes. The base is as big as a small town. This is the first time he has come to the outer area near the city wall. Seeing no customers come, he is not in a hurry to yell, and continues to low Head playing with mobile phones.

There is a big road in front of the stall. From time to time, military vehicles drove out, and then drove back, wrapped in a strong wind, and the air was filled with a faint smell and the unique stench of zombies. The vehicles were all teams that went out and wiped out, but obviously, the casualties were heavy.

The phone was dead, Pei Ran raised his head, and saw a gray-haired old man in a white coat with gold-rimmed eyes on the lawn not far away, pacing slowly. He was followed by a few soldiers armed with gun protection. It is important to think about it. The character, without much air, is leaning over and talking to the surrounding children, taking out a handful of candies from his pocket to share with them from time to time.

The old man is Professor Bai who develops human serum at the base. He is in his 60s and spends all day and night in the research room. He occasionally goes out for a walk, sits quietly in a corner, and distributes some food to young children. Then go back to work.

The children are very well-behaved, all thin and black, and look like long-term malnutrition. They are reluctant to eat the sugar, and they are carefully held in the palms of their hands and surrounded by the old man.

Pei Ran somehow saw the gods and wondered if Qu Yan was the same when he was a child. He was pitiful, thin and small, but he had big eyes and white skin, so he might be cute.

Thinking about this, Pei Ran didn’t hold back and lowered his head to kiss him, then smiled and rubbed Qu Yan’s face, having fun on his own.

He can always be very happy, smiling a corner of the gloomy sky. Qu Yan sometimes didn’t know what he was happy about, but he felt that this situation was not bad.

Not long after, the old man left, and the children around him scattered. One of the children looked at Pei Ran curiously with his eyes open, then ran over and stopped a few steps away again. Look at him carefully.

Pei Ran squinted for a long time, feeling that the other party was familiar, but his small face was dark, and he couldn’t remember who it was. Qu Yan lifted his head from his lap and glanced, feeling that there was no threat, and then lay down again.

Pei Ran asked: “Do we know him?”

Qu Yan has a good memory. After thinking about it, he only said three words: “Ding Sihao.”

Pei Ran just remembered that this was the kid who helped lead the way when they first entered the base. He couldn’t help but beckoned to him with a smile. Ding Sihao hesitated for a moment and ran up. He was much thinner than before, but It’s also much higher.

Pei Ran asked: “Where is your mother?”

Ding Sihao stood upright in front of him, as if in an army posture. He shook his head and said: “Mom is not at home, I have gone to work.”

Pei Ran took a bag of bread from the basket and handed it to him: “Do you still lead the way?”

Ding Sihao was a little embarrassed to pick it up, he lowered his head and picked up the candy in his palm: “No, no new survivors have come in for a long time in the base. Those uncles and aunts can only go out to find zombies to dig crystal cores, and my mother won’t let me go. .”

Sometimes the army has no time to dig the crystal nucleus after the zombies are wiped out, and the more courageous will gather in groups to collect the leakage. Although it is dangerous, the harvest is quite good. If you are lucky, you can even dig a rare crystal nucleus and make a fortune.

Pei Ran stuffed the bread into his arms: “Go and play by yourself.”

Ding Sihao took the bread, but did not leave immediately. He looked back and forth in front of Pei Ran’s booth for a long time, and finally said like a mosquito: “This is very dangerous and will be robbed by bad guys.”

There are a few ground snakes in the outer area, relying on their strength, and always stealing food from ordinary people, which is no different from the underworld.

Pei Ran looked calm: “Ah, it’s okay.”

A few days ago, the SB who wanted to grab supplies was not known by his mother who called him. She fell on the ground and foamed at her hands and feet. Finally, she was dragged away like a dead dog. Two more problems were not a problem.

After another half an hour, someone finally couldn’t help but came up to ask the price. Pei Ran sold it very cheaply. After all, it was an expired product: “Two crystal cores and one package, choose your own taste.”

The man widened his eyes when he heard the words: “Two crystal nuclei in one package? Really?!”

His expression was not because it was too expensive, on the contrary, it was too cheap. During this period, a wave of zombies broke out one after another. Many abilities have returned home, and even the ability hall opened with the base has suspended most of the goods. At present, the five contribution points can only be exchanged for the cheapest and roughest compressed biscuits.

This kind of speechless panic spread rapidly among the crowd, but the high-level base of the base did not disclose any information, but the declining living conditions clearly showed the harsh environment.

Pei Ran said: “Fake, don’t buy it.”

“Don’t!” The man squatted down quickly, took ten crystal nuclei out of his pocket, two of which were second-order, he held it tightly in his hand and asked Pei Ran: “How much can these be replaced? ”

Pei Ran didn’t really plan to earn anything, otherwise he wouldn’t sell it so cheaply: “I’ll count as twelve packs for you.”

After speaking, he signaled Qu Yan to collect the crystal core, counted twelve packets of noodles to the man, and took a small bread from the basket as a gift.

The man wrapped his face in his arms, covered it with a coat, hunched his waist and ran away without a trace. The cautious appearance seemed to be holding a large golden brick.

With the first person taking the lead, business gradually improved. Two full duffel bags were all sold out within half an hour, but there were some small breads left in the basket, which is not easy to store. At the same price, people are more inclined to store instant noodles. Pei Ran simply bought it and gave it out.

Qu Yan counted the crystal nuclei, and then packed them in a bag. They were heavy, but unfortunately most of them were first-level crystal nuclei and were not very valuable.

Pei Ran pulled out a lollipop from the basket. He didn’t know what to think of, and shook his head: “If this is before the end of the world, I will lose my business.”

Qu Yan didn’t pay much attention to it. He glanced into the distance through the heavy base wall, and didn’t know what he had found. His brows were frowned for a moment, and it took a long time to unfold slowly. He took Pei Ran’s hand and said softly. Said: “Let’s go, let’s go back first.”

A cold wind blew, and the air was filled with a strong fishy smell. Pei Ran’s nose moved, and his instinct was not good. He hurriedly packed things up and walked towards the center with Qu Yan, and asked in a low voice, “What happened? ”

Qu Yan closed his eyes and felt it, and said with uncertainty: “A wave of zombies is coming here.”

Pei Ran paused: “The target is the base? Are there many?”

Qu Yan said: “It seems to be, the distance is a bit far, not sure.”

Before he finished his words, a harsh siren suddenly sounded outside the base, and then three armored vehicles drove in, with rotten flesh and brains hanging from unknown organizations, as if they had just gone through a fierce battle, Pei Ran Pulling Qu Yan back a step, seeing a few pale-faced officers coming down from the car, and rushing directly to the office of the base leader.

This situation was not quite right. Thinking about the abnormality of the recent period, Pei Ran’s first thought was to go out and hide, after all, it was important to save his life, so he pulled Qu Yan and quickly went home to pack his things.

No matter what else, the car key has to be found. Pei Ran searched for it for a long time, and finally found the car key under the seam of the sofa.

He sweats easily when he is in a hurry, Qu Yan wiped his forehead, calmly: “It doesn’t matter.”

Even if the zombies actually came in, he could protect Pei Ran well.

The sky outside suddenly became gloomy, and thick clouds rolled, like a sign of a thunderstorm. I don’t know what happened, the base’s siren suddenly sounded, and the long and piercing sound pierced the eardrum like a needle, even with the heart. Eight times.

“What happened, why did the alarm go off?”

“80% of the time something major has happened, could it be that the zombies came in?!”

The unidentified people were so excited by the sound that they couldn’t stand still. They looked at a loss and looked at each other. At the same time, the base’s radio horn rang.

“Urgent notice! Urgent notice! Please gather all abilities in the central square within ten minutes.”

“Repeat again, the situation is urgent, please gather all abilities in the central square within ten minutes! All registered abilities must be present, the list is as follows…”

Looking down from the high window, the army almost came out, with the sound of neat running and a large number of camouflage figures, soldiers with guns and live ammunition were rushing towards the central square.
