I sell Coke in the doomsday
Page 57
I was still sleeping soundly when I suddenly felt something very rough rubbing back and forth on my face.
It was a very strange feeling, like someone was rubbing sandpaper all over my face.
I opened my eyes somewhat confusedly, and my brain, still in a chaotic state, subconsciously directed my body to sit up.
However, my body tensed up and I couldn't sit up. I looked forward with sleepy eyes, and what I saw was a fat orange cat squatting beside me, licking my face with its little tongue.
I suddenly regained consciousness and looked at the fat orange cat in front of me in surprise, but the fat cat was very calm and continued to lick my face with its tongue.
Cat? When did cats first appear in the desert?
I quickly looked around and finally realized that I was no longer in the desert, but in a wooden hut, tied up with ropes.
Under me was a simple wooden bed made of old planks. If I moved slightly, the bed would make a creaking sound.
Just when I was puzzled, a childish voice sounded.
"Xiao Huang? Xiao Huang?"
Tap, tap, tap, with the call, the small footsteps were getting closer and closer. Soon, a little girl poked her head out from the crowded doorway.
"Xiao Huang?"
The fat cat remained calm. I had clearly moved my body slightly away and its tongue could no longer reach it, but it still made the motion of licking something.
To be honest, this fat cat is a bit stupid.
The little girl looked at the fat cat curiously, then looked at me, then her eyes widened instantly and she walked into the house with a look of surprise.
"you're awake!?"
"I'll go find Dad to untie you."
Although I didn't know what exactly happened, I thought the little girl probably had no ill intentions, so I smiled, called the little girl and said.
"no need."
After saying that, I exerted a little force with my hands, and the rope tied to me broke.
This is the first time I used my full strength after eating that monster. I have to say, I might be a real monster now.
I slowly stood up and stretched my muscles comfortably. All over my body, there was a crisp and crackling sound as my muscles twisted.
The little girl's eyes were wide open, her little mouth was pursed, her eyes were shining, and she spoke excitedly.
"Amazing!"
I twisted my neck, sat back on the broken wooden bed, picked up the silly fat cat, and asked the little girl with a smile.
"Little sister, can you tell me how I got here?"
The little girl was not shy at all. Instead, she put her hands on her hips, raised her little head with some pride, and said.
"Big brother, I am your savior."
Looking at the cute appearance of the little girl, I couldn't help but stretch out my hand, touch her little head, and spoke softly.
"Thank you very much, little one."
"Want me to repay you?"
Hearing this, the little girl pouted, thought about it seriously, and then spoke to me seriously.
"Big brother, are you from the outside world?"
Chapter 83 Misunderstanding
"Big brother, are you from the outside world?"
outside world?
I subconsciously frowned. What did the little girl mean by "outside"? This question was only fleeting, because after the little girl asked this question, she stretched out her little hand again, gently pulled the corner of my clothes, raised her little face, and asked innocently.
"Big brother, what's your name?"
I smiled when I heard that, and gently stroked the fat cat in my arms. After thinking for a while, I answered with some evil humor.
"Su Li, my name is Su Li, little guy, what's your name?"
The little girl smiled sweetly, with a gleam in her big eyes, and said to me with some pride.
"Xiaoya is Xiaoya."
I narrowed my eyes slightly and looked at Xiaoya's innocent appearance in front of me. My mood couldn't help but relax a little. At this time, Xiaoya stretched out her little arms, picked up the fat cat in my arms, and introduced it to me.
"It's Xiao Huang."
The cat was really too fat, and Xiaoya seemed to have some difficulty holding it. The cat also seemed uncomfortable being held. Its ball-like body suddenly moved, and it flipped onto Xiaoya's shoulders very flexibly, and lightly jumped onto Xiaoya's head.
The fat cat seemed to like this position very much. It lay lazily on Xiaoya's head, with its long tail swinging happily. Xiaoya seemed to be accustomed to this posture. She looked calm and inexplicably naive.
Seeing Xiaoya in front of me made me feel dazed. It seemed like it had been a long time since I had gotten along with a stranger I met for the first time like this. There was no testing, and no fighting without reason. It really made me miss it.
My eyes softened, and I stretched out my hand to tease the fat cat, asking softly.
"Xiaoya, can you tell me how I got here?"
Xiaoya blinked her eyes, thought about it seriously, then stretched out her two little hands and gestured to me with great emotion.
"Well, last night, when my dad and I were out on patrol."
Xiaoya cutely drew a big circle with her fingers, and then said excitedly.
"I saw such a big cactus!"
"..."
I felt helpless. I wanted to tell Xiaoya that she could just tell me when she met me, but seeing how happily Xiaoya said it, I had to give up the idea.
This child must be often alone.
That's why he was so excited and told me everything he thought was interesting, bit by bit.
I smiled, looking at Xiaoya jumping in front of me. Looking at her lively appearance, I put aside my worries temporarily, and a hint of warmth appeared in the quiet lake of my heart.
This child looks a bit like Tongtong.
……
Outside the oasis, the man from last night was riding on a camel. He looked extremely tired, his eyes were bloodshot, and in his right hand he was still holding the hatchet.
The hatchet was covered in rust, as if it had not been sharpened for a long time, but near the handle there were some dark red marks that looked a bit like blood.
The man rode his camel and slowly came to the oasis. He jumped off the camel swiftly and sighed with a worried look in his eyes.
Ever since he picked up the mysterious man last night, he has been worried, always fearing that the man might have accomplices nearby. Even if there were no accomplices, he would still worry about so-called pursuers.
“It shouldn’t be that group of people.”
The man was leading the camel as he walked through the trees at the edge of the oasis, muttering to himself. But as he thought about it, he couldn't help but laugh at himself.
This might be the safest place in this doomsday. How could those crazy people risk their lives and cross this vast desert?
The only strange thing is how the man I picked up last night found this place?
The man frowned slightly, but he was not particularly worried. After all, in his opinion, the strange man last night had been tied up tightly by him, and Xiaoya was a smart child and would not untie the man without his permission.
Thinking of this, the man led the camel to a simple straw hut, tied the camel up, and then walked towards the wooden house in the oasis.
This oasis is very small and you can see the end at a glance. In this oasis, there is a green lake that occupies nearly half of the area of the oasis. In the remaining area, there is an antique small building with only three floors. It seems that this place has existed as a tourist attraction.
The man walked slowly towards the small building. Thinking that he would soon see Xiaoya, he rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, as if trying to rub away the fatigue on his face. After a moment, the man put on a gentle smile and strode forward.
At this moment, the man suddenly heard Xiaoya's cheerful laughter. Before the man could feel happy, he heard a strange man's voice again.
In an instant, the man's blood turned cold, his hands and feet were icy, and his heart was beating wildly, as if it was going to break his chest. A flash of fear passed through his eyes, and he grabbed the hatchet at his waist in panic and ran into the house, shouting loudly.
"Xiaoya!"
Under the tense emotion, horrific scenes emerged in the man's mind. The cruel experiences of the past, with the man's rapid breathing, fear climbed into the man's heart little by little, gradually dominated his reason, and the past regrets and unwillingness, like the shadow mountains on the moon, quietly enveloped him.
The man quickly entered the wooden house, searched for the source of the sound, kicked open a wooden door, and held the hatchet with a ferocious look on his face. However, the wooden door was only half-closed. When he kicked it, the wooden door made a loud noise and slammed to the side.
In the wooden house, I was teaching Xiaoya how to do crocheting. When I heard the loud noise, I looked back. However, the moment I turned my head, a fist landed hard on my face. Before Xiaoya could react, the man grabbed her and held her in his arms.
My face was slightly tilted to one side by the punch, but it didn't hurt much. I touched the scratched corner of my mouth helplessly and looked at the man.
The man was like a frightened bird, holding Xiaoya in one hand and holding an axe in the other. He pointed the axe at me and shouted in fear.
"Who are you? How did you untie the rope?!"
It can be seen that the man seems to have had some bad experiences, and his current emotions and mental state are obviously a bit extreme.
I don’t blame this man. In this doomsday, doubting every stranger is the most basic rule of survival, and he can also be considered my “lifesaver”.
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm."
I took the initiative to raise my hands high with my five fingers spread out to show that I had no hostility, but the man did not show any sign of relaxation. His Adam's apple rolled up and down, his face turned pale with nervousness, and he asked me again, holding the hatchet.
"How on earth did you untie the rope?"
I felt a little helpless and didn't know how to explain. My body now had extraordinary strength that was not seen in humans. If it were an ordinary person, it would be impossible for them to untie such a thick rope. But even if I told the truth, the man in front of me probably wouldn't believe me.
During my silence, the man's emotions became more and more out of control. His eyes turned slightly red. He gripped the hatchet tightly and yelled at me hysterically.
"Speak up! Why don't you speak up!"
I narrowed my eyes slightly. Xiaoya in the man's arms was already frightened by the scene in front of her. Her tender little face looked a little pale, and tears were welling up in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry out loud. She just bit her little lips, and her eyes were pitiful.
Just when the two of us were in a stalemate, the fat cat stretched lazily, then arched its body, exerted force on its feet, and jumped onto my head. The man was already extremely nervous, and the action of this stupid cat made the man, who was like a frightened bird, instantly stand up.
Without even looking at what was happening, the man swung the hatchet at me. I focused my eyes and dodged the hatchet, and at the moment I dodged the hatchet, I covered the man's face with my hand.
The next moment, the hatchet in the man's hand slipped out, and his head was pushed against the door by me. In the blink of an eye, I quickly caught Xiaoya who fell and held her in my arms.
Boom!
The man's head hit the door hard with a dull thud. He cried out in pain, then looked at me nervously and screamed.
"Xiaoya."
I don’t know if it was the pain just now that made the man regain some sanity, but he seemed to be much calmer than before.
I sighed, glanced at Xiaoya who was looking aggrieved in my arms, and gently put her on the ground. Xiaoya bit her lips lightly and ran towards the man.
I raised my hands again in a gesture of surrender and explained helplessly.
"I'm really not a bad person."
It is often like this: saying it a hundred or a thousand times is not as convincing as actually doing it the last time.
After seeing me put Xiaoya down on my own initiative, the man's expression eased a little. He held Xiaoya's small hand and comforted her in a low voice. At this time, Xiaoya also explained aggrievedly.
"Brother Su Li is not a bad person. He is teaching me how to play the game of skating."
The man was still skeptical when he heard this, but he had calmed down. He gently picked up Xiaoya and spoke to me in a slightly polite manner.
"I'm sorry, I got emotional."
What else can I say about this.
I could only wave my hand gently and reply with a very generous smile.
"It's just human nature. I might be more excited than you."
That’s true. If Tongtong was in danger, I might be crazier and more extreme than the man in front of me.
The man held Xiaoya in his arms, exhaled slowly, and his expression returned to normal, but his eyes flashed and he saw the rope broken into several pieces on the ground, and he still couldn't help asking.
"I still can't figure out how you untied the rope."
I spread my hands innocently and answered perfunctorily.
"Just think of me as someone who was born with supernatural powers."
Such a perfunctory attitude finally shut the man up. He was still wary of me, but I didn't care.
I don’t plan to stay here for too long, Tongtong is waiting for me at home.
After hesitating for a moment, the man put Xiaoya down and asked her to go outside to play first. Then he wiped his hands, stretched them towards me, and said with a calm look.
"Song Mingtao."
I was stunned for a moment, then smiled, held his hand and said.
"Su Li."
