Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

The next day, Zhou Shuwan and his friends went to Jiyun Mountain again and brought both families with them.

Mu Mu hasn't traveled far for a long time.

Now at most he would follow his father, sister or brother Xiao Yu, either to feed chickens or take care of hydroponic vegetables behind the property building, or to go back to the top floor to get something.

Even his family members in the frame building wouldn't let him go any further, fearing they might be in danger.

So, this trip was like a break for him. He sat in the car, kneeling and looking back, feeling extremely excited.

There is air conditioning in the car, but the temperature is around 40 degrees, which is not cool.

But for people who have lived through high temperatures for more than a year, this is already a very suitable temperature.

Everyone was still wearing air-conditioned clothing, only opening their masks to facilitate conversation.

Mu Mu looked excited.

The adults were very solemn, each holding a weapon in their hands and looking around with sharp eyes.

Before getting on the bus, Qi Mingyu, as the temporary deputy captain of the team, assigned tasks to everyone.

He drives himself.

Zhou Shuwan paid attention to the front, Zhou Jianghai and Mu Mu paid attention to the sides, and Zhong Tiyun and Mu Mu paid attention to the back.

Sound the alarm immediately if there is any movement.

He also distributed weapons to everyone, which were the same electric shock grenades that Zhou Shuwan had used before.

It's not that bloody, but it's very effective when thrown in a critical moment.

Even Mu Mu got one, which he held dearly in his hands. Seeing the expressions of the adults around him, he thought for a moment and put away his relaxed attitude of just getting some fresh air. His face tensed as he carefully observed what was going on behind him.

This time I was just bringing my family out to have a look, so collecting supplies was secondary.

Qi Mingyu drove to the place where they saw the large area of ​​cacti that day.

When they were halfway to see the whole view of Jiyun Mountain, Zhou Jianghai, Zhong Tiyun and others were stunned by the sight of the withered and lifeless mountain range.

They stared at each other in a daze, and suddenly Zhong Tiyun reached out and wiped away the tears that welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Zhou Jianghai held her hand tightly.

Mu Mu was a very careful child. He immediately noticed his mother's abnormality, turned his head from the window, and looked at her worriedly.

Zhong Tiyun smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, it's just too hot and my eyes are sweating."

Zhou Shuwan has been coming here for the past few days. From her initial shock to her current calmness, she said softly, "Mom, when we get there, let's go down and take a look."

Zhong Tiyun responded and looked at the dry scene outside in silence.

Grandma Pang also sighed softly and patted her shoulder through Mu Mu.

When they reached the bend in the road, Qi Mingyu stopped the car.

After putting on air-conditioned clothes, everyone got off the bus and looked into the distance.

Zhong Tiyun suddenly said, "That's right. Look over there. What a huge patch of cacti."

Looking from here, you can see that the hillside is almost entirely planted with cacti, a small half of which are as high as two meters. From a distance, it looks like a standing forest.

"Don't be sad, Mom. Even though all the other plants died, we now have a new variety of cactus! The green won't disappear!"

Hope will not disappear!

Zhong Tiyun looked greedily at the vast expanse of green in the distance and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, cactus can bring this mountain back to life!"

Zhou Shuwan was startled for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, of course."

They stood there, looking at the cactus forest for a long time before picking up firewood on the mountain path nearby.

As she picked up the wood, Grandma Pang muttered, "It's really inconvenient to get there, otherwise we could just pick up all this dead wood and burn it. The underground base is still short of firewood, and the firewood they have there is very valuable right now."

Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu looked at each other and suddenly felt that they had walked into a treasure trove without knowing it.

Although metals such as aluminum and iron will be scarce in the future, firewood is actually also a scarce commodity.

Moreover, this thing is not conspicuous at all when it is taken out, and because they have a new type of tire, it is easier to explain where they got it from.

As long as there is space, collecting firewood is not difficult.

Zhou Shuwan thought about it and asked in a low voice, "If we use an off-road vehicle to pull a truckload of firewood, will it be feasible?"

Qi Mingyu nodded: "The firewood is light and not difficult to pull."

The main force for collecting firewood still has to be Zhou Shuwan, who has space.

She called Zhou Jianghai: "Dad, let's pick it up over here."

Zhou Jianghai hurriedly followed and reminded Mu Mu to "follow the adults carefully!"

Zhou Shuwan and Zhou Jianghai turned to this side of the road and began to collect firewood frantically.

As she walked on the mountain path, she bent down and touched the dead trees at her feet, and the trees disappeared before her.

Not only did the tall and sturdy trees disappear, but the branches and roots next to them were also removed completely.

Zhou Jianghai was covering on the side, bending down to pick up some firewood while looking around to see what was going on.

After two rounds of walking up and down the slope here, there are no more trees around.

Zhou Shuwan called his father to go to the side.

They had originally planned to return in the morning, but because they had to collect firewood, they were not in such a hurry to go back.

At noon, the six of them hid in the air-conditioned car and had a simple lunch.

Each person had a box of self-heating rice and opened two cans of fruit, which they shared.

In the end, two people shared a cactus. The raw cactus has a strong bitter taste, so everyone ate it with a grimace.

But after eating it, I no longer feel thirsty.

After a short rest, he started collecting firewood again.

Qi Mingyu, Zhong Tiyun, Grandma Pang and Mu Mu also picked up a lot in the morning and piled them all together.

Grandma Pang was also worried about how to transport so much firewood back home.

Qi Mingyu said, "Wanwan's family has a truck. When we get back, we can just use an off-road vehicle to pull the truck over."

Grandma Pang was still a little worried: "The truck compartment is large, can the SUV pull it? What if the tire blows out?"

"It's okay, just drive slowly along the way." Zhong Tiyun also said.

Grandma Pang finally put her worries aside and became happy again: "Then we should collect more firewood. When we go back, we can not only exchange it for firewood, but also use it for our own use."

They were busy until four in the afternoon, and for safety reasons, they packed up and left.

Zhou Shuwan was the last one to get on the bus. After Grandma Pang and Mu Mu got on, she collected the pile of firewood.

The firewood they picked up was naturally not like Zhou Shuwan who had a space cheat, who picked only from the thickest and strongest tree. They picked dry firewood that was more than one meter long and of similar thickness, which was easy to carry and used for burning when they returned.

The next day, Grandma Pang wanted to go collect firewood again.

Qi Mingyu laughed in surprise: "Grandma, you picked up things for almost a whole day yesterday. Can your body handle it?"

The air-conditioned suit is designed with sophisticated instruments and is heavy to wear. Even a young and strong man like him would feel tired after wearing it for a whole day, let alone the elderly Grandma Pang.
