I sell Coke in the doomsday

At this moment, I was slightly distracted. I had been to this stronghold before, and there was nothing special about it. It was just a human stronghold that could be found everywhere in the doomsday.

Savage, brutal, and hungry.

This stronghold is so common that I can no longer remember the details about it, and no one needs to remember it anymore.

Like the vast majority of human strongholds, it survived for a decade amid brutality, barely surviving before perishing in increasingly obvious contradictions and chaos.

No one will remember the name of this stronghold anymore, and no one will know how it was destroyed.

Sun Zheng, who was driving, also took a look at the ruins of the stronghold, frowned slightly, couldn't help but sighed, and asked me again.

"Um...what does the base we are going to look like?"

This was the fourth time Sun Zheng asked me this question in these seven days, and I still couldn't give him a new answer, so I just whispered.

"A stronghold that is neither too big nor too small."

Sun Zheng curled his lips and muttered somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Can't you be more specific?"

I smiled and explained patiently.

"I don't want you to have too high expectations, or you'll be disappointed, so I'd better lower your expectations."

"Just imagine it. The worse the better."

Hearing this, Sun Zheng sighed, and seemed to be really beginning to have bad fantasies about the stronghold that he was about to arrive at.

After another two hours of journey, with my guidance, an ancient city appeared on the distant horizon.

Yes, that is the ancient city stronghold.

As the jeep drove on, the ancient city became clearer and clearer in our eyes. The buildings did not look like human settlements, which surprised Sun Zheng. He looked at me from time to time, but seemed to be hesitant to speak.

It was not until I asked him to drive the jeep straight to the gate of the ancient city that he spoke to me with surprise and joy.

“Is this thing really a stronghold?”

I couldn't suppress the smile on my lips and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Sun Zhengchang let out a long sigh and whispered to himself.

"really not bad."

Soon, the jeep was heard in front of the gate of the ancient city. The guards on the city wall immediately noticed this, holding guns, aiming at the jeep, and shouting loudly.

"who!?"

Seeing the guns, Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's family suddenly became nervous and turned their gazes to me helplessly.

I coughed lightly, gave a reassuring smile to a few people, then opened the car door, and smiled at the guards on the ancient city wall as I always did.

"Businessman."

After hearing my answer, the guard was stunned for a moment, then he looked at me carefully in doubt, but after looking at me, he was still a little unsure and asked me in a lack of confidence.

"Is it...Mr. Su?"

I nodded and waved. I have to say, being stared at with awe in the eyes really made me feel elated.

"Who else could it be but me? Open the door now."

Hearing this, the guard did not open the door immediately, but shouted back with a look of surprise.

"Mr. Su is back! Mr. Su is back!"

The young-looking guard went down the city wall while shouting and disappeared, but no one opened the door.

Even through the city gate, I could still hear the boy's shouts and the surprised cries of others.

Naturally, Sun Zheng in the car noticed this scene. He stuck his head out of the window and said uncertainly.

"Who are you in this base?

I narrowed my eyes slightly, looked at the tall city wall, and spoke slowly.

“I haven’t thought about this yet.”

Chapter 122 Reunion

After waiting for a long time, the gate of the ancient city stronghold finally opened slowly.

The slightly old wooden door made a creaking sound, and through the gradually widening gap in the door, faces, familiar or unfamiliar, came into my sight one by one.

Finally, the door was completely opened, and a group of people rushed out. They surrounded me before I could react. The sudden enthusiasm made me a little overwhelmed. In the chaos, someone punched me on the shoulder. I looked back, but saw Gao Lian with a complicated expression. He didn't know what expression to make. He grinned, and it was an ugly smile.

"You kid is still alive!"

Amidst the warm cheers, before I could explain anything, I was lifted high up by the crowd, thrown up, caught, and then thrown up again.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why was this the only way for this group of people to celebrate? I still prefer a gentler way of welcoming.

In this heated atmosphere, I couldn't explain anything. I could only go with the flow and be tossed up and down by the crowd until they calmed down.

After ten minutes, they finally put me down to the ground. Li Yi stood beside me, smiling happily, and spoke slowly.

"If you are still alive, please give us a message."

"You know, when Ajie sent the news from the Shield Stronghold that you were taken away by monsters, we were very worried."

I smiled embarrassedly. This journey came suddenly. First we were in the desert, and then we were in the crazy Reformed stronghold. It did waste a lot of time. According to common sense, people who have been missing for so long are most likely not to survive.

"Come on, we must give you a good welcome tonight."

"Old Li, go get the wine out of the cellar."

Gao Lian grabbed my arm and dragged me into the stronghold. I hurriedly grabbed Gao Lian, waved my hands and said.

"Forget about that. I'm not a drinker, and I'm not here to waste your food."

As I said that, I turned around and waved gently to the jeep outside the gate. Seeing this, Sun Zheng in the jeep immediately honked the horn. The loud horn finally made this group of overjoyed people realize the existence of another jeep.

Gao Lian was startled. He looked through the car window at Sun Zheng and others sitting in the jeep, and asked me with some confusion.

"This is?"

I shrugged slightly, then lowered my voice, moved between Gao Lian and Li Yi, and whispered.

"I picked up two treasures this time, two construction engineers, and one of them can repair cars."

"Once I get a bulldozer, these two guys can help expand the base and reclaim wasteland."

Hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in Gao Lian's eyes. Due to the chaos caused by that beast Liu Yong, the number of people in the ancient city stronghold was already very small, and there was an even greater lack of decent talents. Although the old people in the city knew a lot, professional talents like this were the best.

Compared to Gao Lian who was full of joy, Li Yi on the side seemed a little worried. He frowned and spoke in a low voice.

"Can these two people outside... be trusted?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Lian rolled his eyes at Li Yi and spoke carelessly.

"How could it be possible that the people Su Li brought with him could not be trusted?"

Li Yi heard this, his frown still did not relax, and he said with a worried look on his face.

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. Didn't we trust that guy Liu Yong back then?"

Gao Lian's face froze, but then he recovered and said seriously.

"If one grape is sour, then all grapes are sour?"

"There is no such truth."

"At least, I am willing to believe in Su Li's judgment of people."

Li Yi glanced at me, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself. Finally, he just sighed helplessly, took a step back and stopped talking.

I always felt that the look Li Yi gave me just now was somewhat meaningful, but at the moment I didn't have the mind to think about this problem carefully. Instead, I asked Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's family to get out of the car.

"Lao Gao, I'll leave these people to you."

Gao Lian nodded generously and grinned. Suddenly, he reacted and said with a strange look on his face.

"Wait, it sounds like you are planning to leave?"

"That won't do! I haven't even given you a welcome dinner yet."

I shook my head gently, a smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, my expression became much softer, and I spoke slowly.

"Let's wait for the welcoming ceremony another day."

"I…I have someone I need to see urgently."

After saying that, I walked straight towards Sun Zheng without waiting for Gao Lian to say anything to retain me.

"Lend me your jeep, I'll return it to you tomorrow."

My broken pickup truck should still be at the Shield stronghold, so I need this jeep.

Sun Zheng didn't say anything and just threw the car keys to me without even asking me where I was going.

This straightforward character is exactly what I admire most about Sun Zheng.

I took the keys of the jeep and left without saying anything.

Countless eyes from behind fell on me, some of them burning.

But I'm sorry, I haven't decided what role I want to play in this base, so please let me be willful for a while.

I got on the jeep, and under the gaze of everyone, I drove the jeep and embarked on the real journey home.

The sky was silvery white, with a hint of blue behind the white clouds. I rolled down the car window, and moist air immediately filled the air.

I exhaled gently, and my mood lifted along with the sound of the oncoming wind, but I stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

The jeep whizzed past on the muddy road, splashing mud and water everywhere, and the body of the jeep was shaking violently, but for the first time in my life, I enjoyed this feeling.

This is my city, my territory, and my home.

I drove the jeep over the high dirt slopes and through the muddy road. The zombies on the plain were attracted by the huge noise and began to chase me.

There were more and more zombies, gradually forming a terrifying tide of zombies that followed the jeep closely. It was quite spectacular.

The corners of my mouth curled up as I admired this spectacular scene through the rearview mirror. Now that ordinary people were no longer around, I could finally take a closer look at this tide of zombies.

There are more and more zombies, forming a black mass, like a black torrent, rushing towards us.

As I was sitting in the car, I leisurely lit a cigarette and watched quietly as countless zombies joined and left along the way, increasing and decreasing.

When we were about to reach the city, I stopped the jeep, walked out slowly, smiled, opened my arms to the huge tide of zombies, and whispered to myself.

"I am back."

When I stepped out of the jeep, the tide of zombies began making all sorts of strange noises, and their speed slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although I have no basis for this, I am sure that these zombies were swearing, very ugly swear words.

Before they could reach me, the group of zombies dispersed and walked away cursing.

I smiled with satisfaction, turned around and walked towards the jeep. This is where I should be.

Not only do people know me, but even zombies know me.

After this little episode, I was on the road again, driving my jeep into the city.

In a deserted city, the sound of wind passed through the streets and alleys, and the fragments of dry grass were blown up by the wind. A bird that had not yet left landed on a tree trunk, twisting its head flexibly.

On the empty street, a tattered red banner was hooked on a tree branch, fluttering slightly in the wind. From a distance, it looked like a woman wearing a red scarf, waiting for her loved ones to return in the cold wind.

I looked at all the scenery in front of me. In just such a short period of time, the scenery here seemed to have been completely transformed.

Time, why can't it go a little slower?

I drove the jeep through the streets and alleys, turning left and right, and after reluctantly saying hello to the zombies in the city, I finally parked the jeep at the gate of the community.

I don’t know what emotion made me not drive the jeep into the community, but got out of the car anxiously.

I stood at the gate of the community, hesitating, wavering, and afraid of something I didn't know the answer to.

What exactly is Tongtong? What is her connection with the cerebral palsy god?

I stood at the gate of the community for a long time, and in the end I just laughed at myself. I am not a smart person, so I might as well live in confusion.

"call……"

I slowly exhaled, my eyes no longer hesitated, and I stepped lightly into the community. I mustered up my courage and shouted loudly into the community.

“Tongtong!”
