The living environment in the apocalypse is currently extremely harsh. In the early stages of the apocalypse, some mutant animals will appear. As time goes by, there will be fewer and fewer animals, and edible things for humans will become increasingly scarce. The several large refuge areas are not so bad, but the shelters below are not so good.

It took them a long time to build the shelter. If it weren't for the food that Shuangshuang suddenly found, their shelter would not have been upgraded to the tenth shelter area in just 5 years. This is a qualitative leap. Generally, it takes 50-100 years for a shelter area to be upgraded to the next level.

Cheng Xia looked at the girl who bent down to pour him some water and wondered why she wasn't a superpower. Oh! I have to protect Shuangshuang.

Cheng Xia and Shuang Shuang were happily drinking the juice that Mu Sheng sent them, but her brother was in an uproar.

Chu Xu was originally worried about the food in the shelter. He was thinking that if all else failed, he would take the special ability team to the depths of the jungle to try their luck. But he never expected that the third brother would walk in so casually with food in his arms.

When the third brother Yi Ran saw his eldest brother stand up suddenly after seeing the food, he was so scared that he almost threw the food away.

Chu Xu's eyes were fixed on the food in Yi Ran's hand, and he asked with a frown.

"What's going on? Where does the food come from?"

"It was moved here from Shuangshuang's place." Yi Ran immediately put the food on the ground and replied to the boss.

"How can she—"

Chu Xu didn't say anything else. She never asked her sister where the food came from, but she knew that it was not a panacea. Half a month ago, food began to be in short supply in the shelter, but her sister no longer had any food.

So Chu Xu thought that the third brother got the food from somewhere. Now that he heard that it was his own sister who got it, he knew that the third brother could not know anything, so he simply shut up and opened the door of the underground warehouse.

Watching the food being put in one by one, Chu Xu finally felt relieved.

There is not much food left in the shelter, and he has been worried about this recently. Some time ago, his sister said that there might be no food in the future, and he was thinking about whether he could try somewhere else.

Their tenth refuge area is always ranked high, and there is also an area for obtaining food in their refuge area. It’s not that there is no food, but it’s very little. It is simply a fantasy to want to feed everyone in the refuge area.

As for the outside of the refuge area, there was no need to think about it. Unless they were some special abilities, ordinary people would probably be killed by the light octopuses as soon as they left the refuge area.

The light octopus is a mutant beast with a terrifying appearance, resembling a giant snake, with a big head, a small body, and sharp teeth. This mutant beast is highly poisonous and cannot be eaten.

However, its head contains the light energy needed by the major refuge areas, so many psychics will form teams to hunt light cores and bring them to the refuge areas in exchange for food or psychic coins.

Their tenth refuge area had just been established. Simply put, aside from the outer defenses, which were decent, there was nothing inside, even the food supply was pitifully scarce. As for power generation equipment, forget it; they didn't have any.

Now, in addition to worrying about the shelter, another thing he has to worry about is the safety of his sister.

Fortunately, his sister usually does not leave the shelter, so no one except a few close friends knows the source of the food, and no one even knows that Shuangshuang is his sister.

There's no other way. My sister doesn't have any special abilities, and I can't protect her in a high-profile manner, so I can only go there secretly on weekdays.

Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about food in the next few days. He needs to quickly prepare to transport the food to the ninth shelter to sell it in exchange for more food.

Her sister didn't know where she found so many fine foods. If she took them to the Ninth Shelter, she could get three times more food in exchange.

Chu Xu and the group of people who came out of the underground warehouse sat together and quickly discussed how to deal with this batch of food.

At that time, Mu Sheng saw that the warehouse had become empty again, so he locked it from the outside and left.

Seeing that it was still early, Mu Sheng thought about selling the box of jewelry given by Shuangshuang.

After all, the little sisters need food from time to time, and I can't always ask my brother and father for it, after all, they already give them a lot on weekdays.

If the sisters hadn't needed it so urgently, Mu Sheng could have prepared some more food, but the food sent over should be enough for Shuangshuang for a short time.

She wandered around the street for a long time and finally stopped in front of an antique shop.

Mu Sheng took out a hairpin inlaid with jade from a box in the mall.

Then he put it in his pocket and walked into the antique shop.

Mu Sheng entered the shop and saw only a middle-aged man lying on the counter. When he saw Mu Sheng come in, he thought she was here to buy something and greeted her warmly.

"Little girl, what do you want to buy?"

Mu Sheng didn't even raise his head. He casually took the hairpin out of his pocket, put it on the counter, and looked up at the boss.

"Would you like to accept this hairpin?"

The boss's eyes have been on the hairpin since Mu Sheng put it on the counter.

After hearing Mu Sheng's words, she carefully took the hairpin in her hand, observed it carefully for a long time, and then said.

"Take it—take it. I'll give you 10 for this hairpin. How about that?"

After the boss finished speaking, his eyes fell on Mu Sheng's face, carefully observing her expression. He thought to himself that if the other party was unwilling, he would slowly increase the price.

After listening to the boss's offer, Mu Sheng took back the hairpin and looked at the boss and replied.

"Forget it, I won't sell the hairpin anymore."

The boss didn't expect Mu Sheng to turn around and leave so quickly, without even thinking of bargaining with him.

He thought Mu Sheng was still young and probably didn't know the price of the hairpin, so he spoke right after him.

"Girl, I'm giving you a fair price. You won't get any loss if you sell it to me."

Mu Sheng smiled without saying anything. If she didn't understand these things before, he might really have been able to deceive her.

But ever since she made the deal with Shuangshuang and suffered losses several times from selling these things, she started to study them. Although she didn't know much, she still knew the quality of the things.

Seeing that Mu Sheng still didn't want to pay attention to him, the boss gritted his teeth and said.

"Girl, the price is negotiable. How about you name a price?"

Mu Sheng turned to look at the boss and raised a finger.

"900."

"impossible!"

The boss almost jumped up when he heard the price.

"Why are you asking for so much, little girl? I admit that this hairpin is nice, but the price you ask is indeed too high. Otherwise, let's discuss it..."

Mu Sheng didn't want to continue to argue with the other party. When the boss saw that Mu Sheng insisted on leaving, the other party did not stop him, but his mouth was full of threats.

"Little girl, Xuehai City is so small, and there are only a few antique shops. Believe it or not, if you go to someone else's shop, your hairpin may not be worth as much as I offer."
