I sell Coke in the doomsday

"How hungry do you need to be?"

Cangwu thought about it and then gave an answer.

"At least...it has to be to the point where people eat each other."

After hearing this answer, I honked the horn heavily, my eyes darkened, and I lowered my voice, speaking in a low voice as if I was talking to myself.

"I'd rather kill them all than do that."

Chapter 77 Village

"I'd rather kill them all than do that."

I would probably prefer a city full of dead bodies to a bunch of man-eating monsters.

This may sound horrifying, and it certainly doesn't sound like something I would say, but I'm not the arrogant fool I once was.

In countless reincarnations, in addition to the helpless pain, my patience and kindness have been worn away by the repetition day after day, and have long become broken.

Cangwu's expression became complicated and unclear in an instant. He looked at me in the rearview mirror, his lips moving slightly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he said nothing, no jokes, no reprimands, only a long silence.

But I couldn't help but wonder what Cangwu wanted to say. The answer was not hard to guess. He wanted to persuade me and say that this was not what I should do.

Don't become more and more like him, an old monster who is just living.

I know my changes, and I also know that if I continue like this, I will really become another Cangwu, who seems to care about everything, but in fact is indifferent to everything and doesn't care about anything.

I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't stop.

It is ultimately difficult to integrate knowledge and action.

……

The Reformed Church is only a hundred kilometers away from the Corpse God Church, which can be reached in a few hours by car, but the actual journey is very difficult.

The smooth asphalt road in the past is now a bit shabby, with green weeds growing out of the hard road surface and spreading away. In just a few short years, there have been many wild animals on the road, not to mention the ubiquitous zombies.

To be honest, zombies were not considered in my plan at all. I don’t know since when, the presence of zombies in my mind has been close to zero. It was just that this long-awaited journey finally made me remember the horror of these guys.

The zombies from other places didn’t recognize me. When they saw the car, they chased me desperately without giving me any time to rest. Once, the zombies that appeared continuously chased me for ten hours. If it weren’t for Cangwu’s incomplete immortal body in the car, I really wanted to jump out of the car and give the leading zombie a big slap in the face.

In this pursuit, I successfully deviated from my own route, went further and further away, and finally completely lost my direction and had no idea where I was.

One day, after Cangwu and I escaped from the tide of zombies, we came to a deserted village. Surprisingly, there were no zombies in the village. It was a rare quiet place, so I parked the car at the entrance of the village and wanted to take a rest.

After getting off the bus, I couldn't help but complain to Cangwu about the zombies in an unhappy tone.

"These guys are just like beggars."

Hearing this, Cangwu looked at me with resentment and said quietly.

"If you hadn't brought me along, this wouldn't have happened."

I was suddenly speechless and looked away guiltily. It was indeed the case. If I hadn't forced Cangwu to go with me, I might have already reached the territory of the Reformed Church.

I took Cangwu with me out of selfish motives, and I was indeed in the wrong.

Fortunately, Cangwu did not dwell on this issue. He just rubbed his stomach and said listlessly.

"Let's find something to eat. Any hairy meat will do. I'm almost starving to death."

I was already in the wrong, so without any hesitation, I took the initiative to start searching in the village. Not only Cangwu, but my stomach had already been extremely hungry. Although I would not starve to death, the feeling of hunger was really unbearable.

The ground was covered with green grass, and the entire village was covered with thick dust. I searched the village for a long time but did not find anything edible.

When I went back to find Cangwu, I found him squatting in the corner, holding an unlucky sparrow, his mouth full of blood.

I had forgotten that this guy is a ruthless person who eats everything. He had even gnawed on tree bark right under my nose before.

I don’t know what sparrows taste like, but Cangwu seemed to be eating them with relish. After noticing my surprised gaze, the guy asked me insincerely.

"Would you like me to give you some?"

The reason why Cangwu was not sincere was that he didn't take any action at all, he was just talking. I rolled my eyes and planned to continue looking for something to eat.

Just as I was about to leave, my eyes glanced at the ground and my steps suddenly stopped. Then I frowned and squatted down.

The place where Cangwu and I were located was a long-abandoned courtyard. It was quaint and old, and different from the other houses in the village.

This old house is obviously not from the same era as the other houses. Even in my time, it could be considered an antique house.

I squatted on the ground, reached out my hand, and touched the bare ground, with a little more vigilance in my eyes.

In other yards, weeds had already occupied the entire yard, but in this yard, there were not too many weeds.

Weeds are not creatures that prefer wealth to poverty. As long as there is no disturbance from other creatures, they will occupy wherever they can be seen.

Unless the road surface here is frequently stepped on, this bare surface will be left.

There are still living people in this village.

After realizing this, I turned around and looked at the antique house. Because the house was too old, Cangwu and I immediately ruled out the possibility that there was food in the house and no one had ever been in.

As I thought about it, I stepped forward, put my hand on the door handle, and touched it.

Sure enough, there was no dust on the door handle, and this door was often opened.

At this moment, the old wooden door suddenly opened, and a small hand stretched out and pulled me in.

At the same time, an arrow was suddenly shot out and accurately hit the throat of Cangwu who was gnawing on a sparrow.

It all happened so quickly that I had time to react, but the hand that was stretched out was not hostile, and while I was hesitating, I was forcibly pulled into the house.

The light in the old house was very dim. The moment I entered, I saw that the person who pulled me in was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, and the person who shot the arrow was an old man.

The old man is still in good health. After shooting the first arrow, he immediately drew the bow and arrow again, ready to shoot the second arrow, while speaking to me.

"Hide quickly, I will kill the zombie outside immediately."

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that these two people had no hostility, and the zombie the old man mentioned should be the Cangwu who was eating sparrows outside with a bloody mouth.

However, when I figured out everything, Cangwu outside had been hit by the second arrow in the throat.

The girl pulled me and seemed to take me away. I struggled to break free from the girl's hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. I immediately grabbed the old man who was about to shoot the third arrow and said hurriedly.

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! The guy outside is not a zombie."

"Is my friend."

Hearing this, the old man and the girl were both stunned, and finally did not shoot the third arrow. They looked at me in surprise, and I explained helplessly.

"He was just eating a sparrow, so his mouth looked bloody."

Hearing this, the girl was stunned for a moment, then blinked and spoke softly.

"That thing...isn't it delicious when roasted?"

The old man still had a look of doubt on his face. He looked at Cangwu, who was still alive despite having his throat pierced, and asked in a deep voice.

"He was shot with two arrows but didn't die. Why?"

I took a breath, forced a smile, and explained awkwardly.

"He's tough."

"Life is hard?"

"Yes, it's stinky and hard."

Chapter 78: Tunnel

After a very reluctant explanation, the old man who looked very energetic finally put down the bow and arrow in his hand. It was not until then that I saw clearly that what the old man was holding was actually a modern compound bow.

Cangwu, who had turned into an insurgent, came over with a gloomy face after pulling out the two arrows from his throat.

Cangwu and I gave a brief explanation to the old man and the girl. After hearing that we had been hungry for a long time, the girl standing behind the old man silently handed us two baked potatoes.

The girl was pretty, cute and petite, and what was rare was that her skin was not as dark as that of other people in the apocalypse, but rather a sickly pale one.

"Thank you."

I thanked him softly, took the potato and ate it slowly. Cangwu, who was standing next to me, held the potato, stared at the girl, leaned close to my ear and whispered.

"Not good, this girl is my type."

"Please help your brother."

The corner of my eye twitched and I elbowed Cangwu hard in the chest, while lowering my voice so that only the two of us could hear it.

"Shut up! You copper-smelting pervert."

"You're hundreds of years older than her grandfather."

Our whispers undoubtedly made the old man more alert, but he was not like the people I had met before who would shoot and shoot arrows at the slightest disagreement. Instead, he showed kindness to the two of us, which was rare in the end times.

Perhaps unable to bear the awkward silence, the young girl who had been standing behind the old man blinked, looked at me with interest, and asked softly.

"What's your name?"

Without waiting for my answer, Cangwu on the side took the lead and answered with a bright smile.

"My name is Cangwu, what's your name, little sister?"

However, the girl's gaze passed through Cangwu and fell on me. Her eyes moved around without saying a word, as if she was still waiting for my answer.

I took a bite of the baked potato in my hand, then straightened my expression and told the two people opposite me my name.

"My name is Su Li."

The girl smiled when she heard that, still just looking at me, and spoke softly.

"I'm Qiu Rou, nice to meet you."

No... I must be unhappy too, because the look in Cangwu's eyes next to me was getting more and more strange. If he could beat me, he would definitely come up and punch me.

Qiu Rou wanted to say something else, but the old man rolled his eyes, blew his gray beard, and said angrily.

"Come on, this is not the place to chat. Who knows if any zombies will be attracted here."

"Girl, take these two people away first. I'll go get the two arrows that were shot."

As he spoke, the old man glanced at the yard outside, and after making sure there were no zombies, he quickly ran out. Qiu Rou stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, turned around and walked to a wooden cabinet, opened it, and then gently pushed her palm inside the cabinet, and the place was pushed open at will like a wooden door.

Qiu Rou glanced at me and whispered "Follow me". Then she walked in first. I looked at the dark and deep passage and suddenly realized something.

So it’s authentic?

I became more curious and followed him. At this time, Cangwu put his hand on me, leaned close to my ear and whispered.

"Congratulations."

I was stunned when I heard that, then I understood what he meant. I looked at Cangwu with a strange expression, said nothing, and walked into the tunnel.

The tunnel was much more spacious than I thought, but a little darker. Qiu Rou solved this problem. As she walked, she lit the torches hanging on the wall to illuminate the tunnel.

With the help of the firelight, the appearance of the tunnel was completely revealed in my eyes. This tunnel was much larger than I had imagined. In order to prevent collapse, there was a thick wooden pillar supporting the top of the tunnel at intervals.

I don't know how effective these wooden pillars will be, but at least for now, this tunnel seems safe.

The entire tunnel is interconnected, like an underground city. It cannot be dug out in a short time and must have been prepared a long time ago.

Looking at Qiu Rou walking in front of me, I couldn't suppress the curiosity in my heart. I walked quickly forward, walked to Qiu Rou's side, and spoke softly.

"Um...what's going on with this tunnel?"

To be honest, I don’t know how to call Qiu Rou. Calling her by her name is too intimate, but calling her “little girl” is not appropriate either, after all, she told me her name.

Just skip the name, it's better to be impolite.

Qiu Rou didn't care at all about my address and explained to me very patiently.

"This tunnel... existed a long time ago. It was dug out during a special period. Later, in order to prevent the ground from collapsing, most of the tunnel was filled in."

As she spoke, Qiu Rou pointed to the passages that extended in all directions and spoke softly.

"You see, that place used to be able to go to the next village smoothly, but now it's all blocked, and only this village area is available for movement."

At this time, Cangwu also came over with a thick face. Fortunately, his behavior was normal and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

"Excuse me, are you and your grandfather the only ones living here?"

Qiu Rou shook her head repeatedly and said with a smile.

"Not really. My grandfather and I have saved several people over the past few years."
