Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

After leaving the residential area, the group returned via the same route.

Leaving the city center, the journey continued with fighting off zombies while breaking through their encirclement. It wasn't until they reached the main ring road that they were able to shake off the horde of zombies.

Having just escaped the zombie horde, Shen Zechuan handed the gun he had previously swiped from the middle-aged man to Zhou Yang.

"You don't have any superpowers, so keep this gun. Use it for self-defense if necessary."

"Ah, do you need a gun?" Zhou Yang stared at the gun, stunned. "Besides, I don't know how to use it... You should keep it yourself."

"I just checked, this gun only has three bullets left, so it's not very useful to me. It's perfect for you to use for self-defense. Don't worry if you don't know how to use it, I'll teach you when we get back. It's very simple: load, aim, and fire! Just those three steps! At most, you might not be able to hit the target perfectly."

As he spoke, Shen Zechuan placed the gun directly into Zhou Yang's arms.

"Huh?" Zhou Yang hurriedly caught the gun, not daring to touch it carelessly, for fear that the gun would go off accidentally if something went wrong.

Shen Zechuan laughed out loud when he saw him holding the gun like it was a bomb: "Don't be afraid, I just put the safety on this gun, it won't go off accidentally. You don't need to be so careful. Hurry up and put it away."

"oh oh!"

Zhou Yang was relieved and temporarily put the gun back in his backpack.

The return journey was much faster. After exiting the main ring road, the group turned onto the ring road, mainly to avoid all unsafe factors and get home as quickly as possible.

As darkness fell on the road, the beautiful sunset unfolded outside the car window.

The warm, soft rays of the setting sun bathed the earth and sky in a golden hue, merging with the vibrant sunset to create a breathtaking panorama. Such beauty, in today's context, truly embodies the saying: "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's nearing dusk."

Zhou Yang, unusually relaxed, took out his phone and took a picture of the sunset.

Just as I was about to put down my phone, I saw a sign at a small intersection ahead that read "Taoyuan Farm," 500 meters away.

"The sign at the intersection ahead says there's a farm 500 meters away. Should we stop by and take a look? There should still be some time before sunset, so let's hurry and we shouldn't be late."

"That works too, there are plenty of empty cargo compartments anyway."

Shen Zechuan glanced at the road sign, nodded, then gestured to the other cars and turned onto the side road.

The 500-meter distance was short; in just a few minutes, several cars arrived at the farm's gate.

The entire farm seemed very large, stretching as far as the eye could see. From the walls to the gate, the buildings were all in the style of ancient architecture. At the top of the head was a wooden plaque with the four characters "Taoyuan Farm" written on it, and two strings of lanterns and colorful lights hung on either side.

The farm's gate was tightly closed and locked, but with Yan Fei, a lock-picking expert, everything was fine.

The gate was opened, and the group drove in.

Upon entering, you'll see a large music plaza, a farmhouse restaurant, and a guesthouse, with a large farm behind it.

Zhou Yang looked at the panoramic planning diagram of the farm next door and found that the farm was quite well-organized. In addition to the vegetables and fruits that a farm should have, it also planted a lot of ornamental flowers, trees and shrubs, and raised some poultry, and even some small animals, such as rabbits, squirrels, sheep and parrots.

"Achuan, I'm taking Chai Jin and Xingye to the farmhouses and guesthouses. You, Zhiyi, and Zhou Yang can go to the farm to take a look."

Yan Fei, who had gotten out of the car, walked over and spoke to Shen Zechuan.

"it is good!"

Shen Zechuan responded and then led Xu Zhiyi and Zhou Yang towards the direction of the farm.

Zhou Yang had no objection to being directly assigned to a job, and followed Shen Zechuan with Wandou in tow.

However, considering that there should be plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits on the farm, the three of them took a few sacks from the farm's warehouse before they went there.

Upon entering the farm, they were greeted by fields of vegetables and fruits, most of which were ripe. The three of them quickly began harvesting, filling several sacks before stopping.

Afterward, the three of them temporarily put the sack by the roadside and continued walking.

That's the breeding area; poultry and small animals are all there.

However, when the three of them got there, they found that the little animals were not cute at all now.

All the animals here have become several times larger.

Chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits are at least 3 to 5 times the size they were before the apocalypse; killing just one would be enough to feed everyone for a day.

If it were just a matter of increasing size, that would be one thing, but some animals, like squirrels and sheep, have suddenly become incredibly aggressive, and their diets have even changed. Herbs and nuts can no longer meet their energy needs, so they have switched to eating meat.

Looking at the parrot's cage again, only a flock of hideously ugly zombie birds were left, constantly howling, which was quite disgusting. Obviously, at least one zombie bird had emerged and then wreaked havoc on the entire flock.

"Pea, burn these zombie birds, they're making too much noise."

A headache was getting from the zombie parrots, so Zhou Yang patted Pea on the back. Pea immediately spat out several fireballs, and soon the zombie birds fell silent.

Xu Zhiyi looked at the remaining animals, his brows furrowing: "These chickens, ducks, geese, squirrels, and sheep, we can't keep them either, they all seem to have mutated."

"Um, the chickens, ducks, and geese seem to have just gotten bigger, so they should still be edible. But the squirrels and sheep... let's skip them." Just thinking about the smell of the mutant chickens roasted by the superhumans in the base in his previous life made Zhou Yang's mouth water.

"To be on the safe side, kill them all!"

Finally, Shen Zechuan made the decision, and together with Xu Zhiyi, they wiped out the remaining mutated animals, instantly filling the air with the smell of barbecue.

Zhou Yang, who wanted to eat the mutant chicken but didn't know how to explain it: ...

What a waste of such a good mutant chicken!

Well, the chicken in the space smells pretty good too.

After comforting himself, Zhou Yang withdrew his longing gaze and followed Shen Zechuan and Xu Zhiyi away.

Halfway there, Zhou Yang realized that Pea hadn't followed. He turned around and saw Pea sneakily carrying two electrocuted mutant chickens to his side.

Zhou Yang: !!!

My good boy! You understand your dad's heart!

He gave Pea a thumbs up, turned his back to the two people still talking in front of him, quickly put the two mutated chickens into his spatial storage, and then pretended to be nonchalant as he continued to follow behind with Pea.

Just as Zhou Yang was thinking about how to turn the mutated chicken into various gourmet feasts, a dark shadow suddenly roared and pounced on him. Before he could see clearly, it was protected behind him by Pea.

"Fuck! What the hell!"

Zhou Yang was startled and didn't react for a moment.

"careful!"
