This is apocalyptic

Chapter 67: I have this life
"This is a Saint Seiya, and this is a Transformer. They can turn into cars... You've seen cars before, right? They're everywhere. Even if they're scrapped, they can still be transformed!"

Yu Ming was processing fish. When he saw that Bai Xiao had such good taste, he immediately introduced his favorite model to him.

Bai Xiao: “……?”

"This assistant is my wife! She made the time machine." Yu Ming put his hands on his hips.

Bai Xiao looked at the uncle announcing that Makise Kurisu was his wife, and the expression on his face was indescribable.

Yu Ming thought he didn't understand, so he shook his head, picked up an Ultraman and said:
"Your generation is spiritually deficient... It's hard to imagine how wonderful the world was before. Look, this is light."

"It's the end of the world, do you still believe in the light?"

"The end of the world is not caused by light." Yu Ming put down the Ultraman figurine, paused, and his eyes lit up, "You also know about light?"

"I know it's called Dyna."

"You kid, you have it in your life!"

Yu Ming became happy, put down Ultraman, and went back to deal with the fish. "I tell you, the strongest one is Ultraman Noa, but I didn't find him. When I was scavenging, I only found Dyna, Tiga, and Leo... I wanted to put together a set, but I didn't get it in the end."

The uncle happily scraped the fish scales clean and prepared to entertain the young man. He also took out a small bottle and poured out some peppercorns.

"Haha, are you drooling?" Yu Ming laughed when he noticed Bai Xiao swallowing, and said proudly, "I haven't added the chili yet, so the aroma hasn't come out yet, and you're drooling too early."

"Hmm..." Bai Xiao pretended to be hungry.

"It seems you are really hungry."

Yu Ming actually took out some dried chilies and cut them into pieces. Then he went to rummage in a basket in the corner and found some black soil balls the size of fingers.

Seeing Bai Xiao looking at those dirt balls, he shook his head and said, "Potatoes, have you never eaten them?"

"Is this a potato?" Bai Xiaozhen was stunned for a moment. The largest one was only the size of a quail egg. "It's so small."

"Small?" Yu Ming was also stunned for a moment, and shrugged, "It seems that your family is very capable. I can't. I grew it for a while and it became like this. It used to be very big."

Many things die or disappear while being planted, not to mention when years are bad and nothing can survive. He is still quite satisfied with these things, at least they are still there.

He was busy in front of the stove and gradually felt a little hot. He took off his coat, and his short figure looked even thinner.

Smoke was rising from the stove.

There is a big tree in the yard. Only if you look closely can you see a few green buds through its withered branches. In summer, its dense leaves will provide a large shade.

Bai Xiao looked at everything from behind his sunglasses. "Are you alone?"

"Yeah, I'm the only one here. Everyone who should leave has left."

"What do you mean by leaving?" Bai Xiao asked.

"If they die, they will go find a place to live together." Yu Ming said, "Humans, after all, live in groups."

"A place where people live in groups?"

"Chenjiabao, or somewhere else. Isn't that what you're looking for?"

Yu Ming didn't look back, and said lightly: "I was dead before, and I only had a very good brother left. He died two years ago, and I am the only one left."

"You... know about Chenjiabao, why don't you go there?"

"Not everyone likes to hang out in a group and make a lot of noise. What's the matter with Jiba Chenjiabao? Don't I live more comfortably than them?" Yu Ming closed the pot lid and turned around and said, "Why are you still wearing sunglasses? Take them off."

"My eyes are infected, it's pretty scary, so I won't take them off," said Bai Xiao.

"I thought you were blind. How can a blind person live to this age?" Yu Ming sat down and added some firewood to the stove.

After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Do you want to go to Chenjiabao?"

Bai Xiao said: "Just take a look. If there is a better, official shelter, that would be better."

Yu Ming smiled, gave a thumbs up and said, "Smart! That's where you young people should go." "What do you mean?" Bai Xiao asked.

"Those people in Chenjiabao just want to live long enough to see the fireworks." Yu Ming said disdainfully, "You young people don't understand the world of the past. Anyway, don't get involved with them. If you do, you'll be ruined."

"Uh……"

Bai Xiao was stunned for a moment, then asked calmly, "Are they extreme?"

“Not extreme.”

"What harm will it cause?"

"They won't cause any harm. If someone joins, they will help them survive."

"That……"

"The extreme ones all died in the early years." Yu Ming turned his head and looked at him. "You seem different from the young people who grew up after the disaster."

"Understand a little bit what you are saying."

"Did your family tell you?" Yu Ming thought for a while and said, "That's fine. Anyway, your hope as a young person is in the shelter, not in Chenjiabao."

Bai Xiao looked at his thin figure and paused for a moment, "Hope?"

Yu Ming said: "More and more animals are infected."

Bai Xiao lowered his eyes. As expected, perhaps this uncle did not have the foresight of Lin Duoduo's family. He did not see it many years ago, but now, many years later, he could observe it.

hope……

"The people in Chenjiabao are just living in a group. It's not a place for young people to go. There's no difference between looking for them and staying here with me, or just finding a place to live alone." Yu Ming said as he lifted the lid of the pot to take a look.

"Then...is there any hope for the shelter?" Bai Xiao asked.

"How would I know."

Yu Ming said.

"If there is hope, it's only there, and only there. If there is no way to cope with the future there, then there is really no hope. Find a cool place and wait to die."

The fish was cooked. Yu Ming took it out of the pot and put it in a large bowl, steaming hot.

"You don't even take off your sunglasses when eating?" Yu Ming was surprised.

"...I'm sorry." Bai Xiao said, "My eyes are sick. I'm afraid of light and my eyes are tearing up all the time."

"It's hard to cure diseases now, I hope you don't go blind."

Yu Ming used a spatula to split the fish into two halves, gave one half to Bai Xiao, and then enjoyed this delayed lunch.

The fish was very fresh and tender, but the small potatoes mixed in the middle had a slightly astringent taste and the taste was not very good.

"You just mentioned those people in Chenjiabao..." Bai Xiao felt that this place was not that simple.

"That bunch of bastards just live in a group," said Yu Ming.

"Only alive?"

"They're betting that the shelter won't find a solution and everything will be destroyed, so they're trying to stay alive as long as possible in the hope of seeing that day."

"why?"

"It's hard to explain to young people like you who grew up after the disaster. In the past, they were more extreme. Some people drew blood from zombies and sneaked into every possible settlement to cause trouble... Later on, they were not so extreme. They just watched coldly and even helped others."

Yu Ming frowned as he spoke, "Why are you interested in those guys?"

"I haven't seen it before, so I'd better know a little about it so that I can be prepared." Bai Xiao said.
