This is, after all, the back of a giant tortoise. Many people would like to get close but have no chance, let alone get on it. Even just standing there would make you feel like one of our own.

"Okay..." She nodded quickly, extending her hand as if afraid that Lin Feng would change his mind.

Lin Feng pulled them all up, saying, "You guys go up first, I'll have Su Wan bring you some food later."

Xu Ran and her group climbed the stairs to the rooftop, where some bows and arrows were displayed. The rooftop was not large, only 10 square meters, but from there they could see the entire camp, including the campfire, vehicles, and people.

"We...really made it up?" Xu Zhao said softly.

"We're up."

The group fell silent at the same time, glanced at each other, and then burst out laughing. A sense of security welled up from the bottom of their hearts; far too many people had died in the past few days.

Now I finally have a sense of security that comes from settling down, a feeling more real than any words.

Beside the campfire, Michelle had already turned the branches into ash.

"Did you see that? Five, then five more went up. There are five standing on his roof, plus Su Wan from before, that makes eleven."

Mo Qingluan said calmly, "Michelle!"

"what?"

"You're getting impatient!"

Michelle "..."

Michelle broke down completely, "Qingluan, if you keep this up, I'm not sitting with you anymore!"

"Where will you sit?"

Michelle looked around. All she saw were unfamiliar, exhausted survivors. There was no one else as familiar and noisy with her as Mo Qingluan. She finally snorted and turned away from Mo Qingluan.

…………

On the other side, when Su Wan carried a bowl of food up to the rooftop, five actresses were sitting side by side behind a stone wall. Hearing footsteps, Xu Ran, the short-haired girl, was the first to turn around. When she saw the bowl in Su Wan's hand, her eyes lit up.

"Is it for food?"

"Um."

Su Wan took a plastic sheet from the bag hanging on her forearm and laid it on the ground before placing the basin on the plastic sheet. Inside the basin were several porcelain bowls filled with rice, and a large bowl full of meat soup with six pieces of meat the size of a baby's fist, no more and no less.

"This is...meat?" Xu Ran's voice trembled slightly, sounding somewhat incredulous.

"Groundhog meat, level 1." Su Wan squatted down and began distributing the meat to everyone.

"Lord Lin Feng said that each person should have a piece of this meat, as it can improve our physical condition."

Xu Ran moved immediately, picked up the meat from the bowl, took a bite, then widened her eyes and chewed even faster.

Xu Zhao, a girl with long, wavy hair, also started eating, taking small bites and moving quickly.

"This meat... after eating it, it feels so warm. I don't feel so cold anymore. It's like a warm current is flowing out of my stomach."

"Me too……"

"Eating the flesh of a Level 1 mutated creature can enhance our physique and make us stronger than ordinary people."

The women exchanged glances and quickened their eating pace, emptying their bowls of broth in no time.

"Ugh, so full..."

"Brother Lin Feng is so good to us, he even gave us meat from a Level 1 mutated creature to eat..." An Ge, still wearing her ancient costume, hugged her knees, rested her chin on her knees, and spoke in a weak voice. She was the youngest and had suffered a lot these past few days.

"They not only took us in, but they also gave us meat to eat..."

"Stop talking, or I'll start crying too. You guys have no idea, those sleazy guys in the convoy actually tried to use some worthless vegetable-gathering leader to make me sleep with him. I swear to God...&¥……¥¥#%&****……"

As Xu Zhao was speaking, she started cursing, which shows how angry she was.

The group was silent for a moment, then laughed at the same time. Now, seeing the people in the camp, a sense of superiority arose. While the rest of the crew were still starving, they were already eating rice. The convoy had to be frugal with wild vegetables, while they were already eating the meat of level 1 mutated creatures.

They suddenly realized that making the right choice was more important than working hard. Clearly, their choice was the best thing they had ever done in the apocalypse.

Downstairs, Lin Feng had finished his rice, put the bowl on the table, and stood up. Chen Min and the four girls looked up at him simultaneously: "What's wrong?"

"You guys eat, I'm going out for a bit. I have something on my mind and I can't sit still."

Xiao Rui stood up: "Brother Lin Feng, it's so dark..."

"It's nothing, I'm just inside the camp. I'm going to talk to Fang Ling about something," Lin Feng said, pausing after reaching the door.

"Xiao Rui, go borrow a tent from Sister Hong later, and tell those guys on the roof to go take a shower and change into clean clothes..."

Xiao Rui nodded: "Okay, I'll take care of it."

After Lin Feng had walked away, the girls began to chatter quietly.

"Brother Lin Feng must be disgusted by how smelly they all are..."

"If you didn't shower for a week, you'd stink too..."

……

When Lin Feng found Fang Ling, she was in front of a truck, arranging for people to unload timber from the vehicle.

"Sister Ling!"

Fang Ling looked up at Lin Feng, followed by the black dog: "What brings you here?"

"There's something I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"Speak, what is it?"

Lin Feng pointed in the direction of the cliff, "My tamed beast discovered that this cliff is a mine with a lot of ore inside. I was thinking that many people in the caravan are starving, right? I'm a kind-hearted person and can't bear to see others suffer, so I'd like to hire people to mine. Can you help me make the arrangements?"

"Kind-hearted?" Fang Ling interrupted him. This tightwad never gives a penny, refuses to help those in distress, and even beats up a car and its owner if someone insults him. Kind-hearted?

"When did you become kind-hearted?"

"I've always been kind-hearted, you just haven't noticed." Lin Feng continued without changing his expression, "Mining a hundred kilograms of ore, in exchange for a bowl of thin porridge, how about that? Fair enough, right? Food is so precious these days..."

Fang Ling's lips twitched, and she looked Lin Feng up and down: "Mining a hundred kilograms of ore for a bowl of thin porridge? You call that being kind? Even Zhou Bapi isn't as stingy as you. You're so greedy, so incredibly greedy..."

Lin Feng wasn't embarrassed. "Sister Ling, just tell me, will you help me or not?"

"Help, of course we'll help. These people are starving. They'd eat 200 kilograms of porridge, let alone 100 kilograms per bowl. I'll send someone to ask right away."

She took two steps, then stopped and looked back at Lin Feng. "But you need to add more water to your porridge. Don't make it too thick, otherwise you won't be able to afford to feed so many people who need to work."

"Uh... okay!" Lin Feng nodded, looking at Fang Ling with a strange expression. He hadn't expected her to be like this, Sister Ling.

Fang Ling was indeed efficient; the news spread throughout the entire camp in less than twenty minutes.

Suddenly, Lin Feng remembered something, slapped his forehead, and realized he had forgotten about it.
