Who says a sickly daughter can’t break through the weirdness?

To be honest, Shen Qiyin was really afraid that this mentally retarded robot would do something stupid and cut off the cable ties on other people's feet.

If he misjudged Tang Miao and found him to be a cunning person, he would be in danger.

Fortunately, Xiaoxiang is a robot and will not over-exaggerate the instructions. When Shen Qiyin asked her to cut the cable tie on her hand, it only cut that place.

With his hands free again, Tang Miao didn't make any unnecessary movements. He picked up the bucket of noodles and started eating them.

Her cheeks bulged slightly from chewing, then quickly returned to flatness as she swallowed. Occasionally, she would free up a hand to wipe the soup that overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

This extra movement did not slow down her eating speed at all, and the "slurping" sound of her eating noodles was particularly clear in the bedroom.

Seeing this scene, Shen Qinyin silently moved the hand that was pressing on the Exorcist Holy Spear away.

Although she had not completely let down her guard against Tang Miao, she was almost certain of this girl's character.

When people are extremely hungry, everything tastes delicious. Even if the position of the emperor is placed in front of Tang Miao, she is not willing to exchange it for this bucket of noodles.

The bowl of noodles was quickly finished, leaving only a little soup and some side dishes.

Tang Miao picked up the bucket and drank the remaining soup in one gulp, making a "gurgling" sound.

After eating, she let out a long sigh, wiped her mouth casually with the back of her hand, and cast a longing look at Shen Qinyin.

"..."

Shen Qiyin crossed her arms and refused indifferently, "Even if you look at me like that, I don't have much food to give you. Food is hard to come by these days, so every bit counts."

A hint of disappointment flashed across Tang Miao's eyes, but she quickly cheered up and said, "I understand. Thank you."

"...You didn't deny that it was difficult to get food."

Shen Qiyin looked worried: "I thought the apocalypse had only been going on for a month, so there should still be plenty of food to collect outside."

"If there were no entities, perhaps collecting food wouldn't be difficult. But remember? Many entities are intelligent. They know that taking away food means wiping out human life, so many shops have been looted by entities at night."

"...It seems that Xiaoxiang has really made great contributions."

"Uh, what did you just say?"

"nothing."

Shen Qiyin shrugged and said, "We are in big trouble. For the two of us, the food I have here can only last for about 10 days at most."

Tang Miao's eyes lit up, and he asked with uncontrollable excitement, "You, aren't going to chase me away?"

"You almost owe me three lives now. It's not that easy to just leave."

"But, you should be someone with 'qualifications', right? Even if you keep me here, I probably won't be able to help you..."

Ok?

The first reaction is to reflect on your own uselessness?

Is this true? This girl is a little too naive.

Shen Qiyin raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why do you think I'm 'qualified'?"

"Is that even a possibility? In this kind of environment, it's simply unbelievable that a disabled person who has lost their ability to move can survive for over a month relying solely on a clumsy robot.

You must have superhuman abilities, right? Just like those investigators...?"

At this point, Tang Miao seemed to realize something and quickly changed the subject: "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked about your secrets."

"It's okay. You're right, I do have some hidden tricks, so you better be careful and don't have any bad intentions towards me."

Tang Miao's eyes dimmed, and she looked a little aggrieved: "I'm not as bad as you think, really..."

"Let's leave this topic for now. Anyway, I'll provide you with shelter, and you'll help me out. Deal?"

"make a deal!"

She moved her legs and gave Shen Qiyin a flattering look: "Then you can help me untie it now, right?"

"Figure it out yourself."

Shen Qinyin glanced at her and picked up the backpack that Xiaoxiang brought back after going out to scavenge.

If food is really as hard to obtain as Tang Miao said, then there is no way she can expect Xiaoxiang to bring back more edible things.

I just hope it can give me another surprise this time.

When Shen Qinyin opened her backpack, a foul odor immediately filled the air, making her almost vomit on the spot.

After seeing what was inside the backpack, she threw the entire backpack out like a hot potato, her face full of disgust and fear!

As the backpack fell to the ground, the things inside rolled out -

They were actually filthy, dirty and smelly dead rats!

Shen Qiyin suppressed her nausea and pointed at the pile of dead rats with a trembling finger. She stared at Xiaoxiang and asked, "Xiaoxiang! What are these!?"

Xiaoxiang spun his tracks with a humming sound, facing Shen Qiyin. The pixel symbols on the screen formed the OvO expression:

"Report: This is the emergency food reserve I collected for you."

"Food reserves? Are you kidding me?"

“Logic: According to your account, in apocalyptic or extreme survival environments, food sources will become very limited, and people will be forced to consider eating foods they would not normally eat.

After evaluation, it was determined that the uncorrupted rat carcasses, after being roasted with flames and sterilized at high temperatures, could barely meet the standards for human consumption in a doomsday environment…”

"That's enough. Shut up."

Shen Qinyin held her forehead, feeling exhausted as if a boomerang had hit her.

Tang Miao, who witnessed the whole process of cutting the cable tie with scissors, sighed softly and said in a complicated tone, "I'm beginning to feel that I can do a lot for you..."

Without even turning around, Shen Qiyin said, "Then I'll entrust you to throw all these things away. The farther away the better."

"This is starting to get me started..."

Tang Miao curled her lips, suppressed her nausea, put the mouse corpse back into her bag, picked up her backpack and left the bedroom.

While Tang Miao was away, Shen Qinyin used 5 desire stones to strengthen all the windows on the second floor of the villa into the same reinforced tempered glass as the lobby on the first floor.

The villa where Shen Qinyin lives has four floors, but she usually lives on the first and second floors.

The first floor is where the housekeepers live, the third floor is the spare guest room, and the fourth floor is the attic and rooftop.

To be on the safe side, Shen Qiyin did not strengthen the windows on the third floor and the attic. There are still 23 desire stones left, and no one knows what they will encounter next, so it is best to be frugal.

Anyway, her main area of ​​activity now is her bedroom, so she just needs to ensure that the bedroom is not invaded or destroyed.

So, next...

Just as Shen Qinyin was thinking about her next plan, an almost instinctive chill came from her heart without any warning, spreading throughout her body, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar!

sight......

A gaze, as if being watched, was focused on me! !

Because she has a spiritual perception ring, Shen Qinyin can be 100% sure that this sense of being watched definitely comes from a certain "entity"!

She turned her head sharply and looked out the window—

Outside, the sun is shining and there is peace.

This false harmony not only failed to ease the chill in Shen Qinyin's heart, but made her hair stand on end.

Is this an entity that can pose a threat to humans even during the day?

I'm afraid there will be no peace tonight.

Chapter 18 No Peace Tonight

When there is something dangerous nearby, most people would probably think of running away.

But Shen Qiyin knew very well that the one targeting her was an "entity", and she was afraid that no matter where she escaped, she would not be able to get rid of it.

To be honest, Shen Qiyin was not surprised that she was being targeted.

Whether it was the warning broadcast or Tang Miao's experience last night, both confirmed the fact that there was an extremely dangerous entity in Shuiyuan Bay.

As one of the few living people in this villa area, and most likely one of the only two left, it was understandable that he was found by that thing.

Just how powerful is a C-level entity? Compared to the thing in his basement, which one is more terrifying?

Having one entity as a potential threat was already giving her a headache, and now there was another one...

Alas, this is a bit difficult.

Half a minute later, the strong feeling of being watched gradually subsided.

The sun is the nemesis of those entities, and it seems that thing is not strong enough to carry out operations in broad daylight.

This is something to be thankful for, but it also makes Shen Qiyin certain that the thing will definitely attack at night.

If that entity is really the "green haze" that Tang Miao encountered, then what means should he use to deal with it?

"what happened to you?"

While thinking about this question, Tang Miao had already thrown away the mouse corpse and returned to the bedroom.

She stood at the door, her dirty face full of confusion: "You seem to be very uneasy, has something happened?"

"Can I still put on a happy face in this situation?"

"Don't be so cold. We're companions after all. Just tell me if you have any troubles, okay?"

"..."

"By the way, when I was throwing away the trash just now, I noticed that the accessible elevator in the lobby can go further down. Does that mean this villa has a basement?

Why not move to the basement? No matter how you look at it, the basement is much safer than outside, and the state's shelters for citizens are also built underground."

"I advise you not to go near that place. There's an 'entity' in the basement."

“Uh… eh eh eh?!”

Next, Shen Qiyin briefly told Tang Miao about the food in the basement and the extremely dangerous entity.

After listening to Shen Qinyin's story, Tang Miao looked at her with a look of admiration in addition to astonishment.

She gave Shen Qiyin a thumbs up and said with a complicated expression: "There's a physical entity in the basement and you dare not run away, you are really..."

"I can't run away, right?"

"Well, that's true."

After a pause, Tang Miao tilted his head and asked, "So, are you worried about the basement?"

"No, the entity in the basement is nothing to worry about."

Shen Qiyin sighed and said seriously, "That thing has set its sights on us. I'm afraid we won't have a good time tonight."

"That thing?" Tang Miao's expression froze, and then he immediately realized, "You mean 'green haze'?"

"I'm not 100% sure, but it's pretty close. I need you to tell me all the information you have about it."

“I will, but I must remind you that the information I have is all from the shelter, and a considerable part of it is still speculation and has not been confirmed by investigators.

Humanity's intelligence on it is too limited, which is the fundamental reason why the investigation team was wiped out last night without any resistance."

"It's okay, it's better than knowing nothing."

After receiving Shen Qiyin's response, Tang Miao sorted out her words and told her everything she knew about the "Green Haze"...

......

Time passed minute by minute, and soon, night fell again.

Shen Qinyin tapped lightly on the newly upgraded tempered glass window with her fingers, then pulled the curtains.

During the day, she asked Tang Miao to help take down the curtains in other rooms and install them in the bedroom.

Multiple layers of curtains can strictly prevent the light in the bedroom from leaking out.

Although it is not yet clear whether "entities" and strange beasts will be attracted by light sources, it is always better to be cautious.

Tang Miao hugged her knees and sat on the floor near the left side of the bed. With the help of the dim light from the only desk lamp, she watched Shen Qinyin who was busy without saying a word.

Shen Qiyin used dead branches to tie together several cross-like objects, wrapped cloth strips around the branches, and soaked them in alcohol.

After watching for a while, Tang Miao couldn't help but ask, "Are you making torches?"

"No." Shen Qiyin denied without turning her head, "I'm making something to save my life."
