Infinite: die ten times first to add to the fun
Chapter 219 Death is not in vain
In the evening, Li Suifeng ate and drank enough and slept in a specially reserved room above the store.
But early the next morning, the sky was only bright, and the creatures hidden in the darkness slowly receded and crawled into the dark underground.
Crowds of people began to appear in some rooms, and several pairs of eyes looked through the dirty glass windows at the buildings that suddenly appeared in the square.
These people were men, women, old and young, almost from all age groups. Their eyes ranged from confusion to fear.
The clothes on their bodies were all in tatters, and their exposed skin was covered with large and small wounds. The edges of these wounds were rotten, and they looked horrifying.
"Grandpa, what is this?" He looked at a child who was only five or six years old, stepping on a broken stool, with his hands on the window sill, and his little face close to the window, trying to see more clearly.
He was born in a real apocalyptic wasteland. From the time he was sensible, what he saw was a desolate and dilapidated world. This was the first time he saw such a beautiful house from somewhere other than photos. No, this house was bigger than his. The ones you see in the photos are even better!
There was a woman standing behind him, holding him with one hand to prevent him from falling. Her eyes were a little frightened, and she looked back at the two oldest people in the family.
The two old men's eyes were narrowed, and their expressions looked solemn.
They are also sixty this year. They were only ten years old when they were forced to hibernate underground...
They do know that there was a technology that silently appeared in a building overnight, but after so many years, these technologies have long disappeared among the ruins.
“Observe first and then make a decision.”
If you want to survive in today's world, you don't have to be passionate. What's more important is avoiding danger.
There were knocks on the door, three long and two short, and the young woman trembled as if frightened. The man next to her comforted her for a few words and then opened the door. There was a man and a woman standing outside the door, holding a child by their hands, timidly. Greet the man: "Uncle Xu."
Xu Rui nodded lightly and let them in, then looked around with vigilant eyes, then carefully closed the door, and dragged something to block the door.
In today's era, they not only have to fight against mutated animals and plants, but also be wary of similar species.
The child greeted everyone in the room one by one, and the woman patted the child on the head: "Xiao An, go play with Xiao Ping."
Xu Xiaoan was carried off the bench by his mother, and he and Shen Ping went to play in another room.
After entering the room, Shen Ping dug at the rotten flesh on Xu Xiaoan's face with his fingers: "Your area has grown bigger again."
Xu Xiaoan gasped in pain: "It hurts a lot."
He took several deep breaths, then wiped away the tears caused by the pain and said, "I can't help it. I was just scratched by a nail at first, and then..."
Shen Ping came closer to him and said in a low voice: "I went out with my parents just now. Did you see the beautiful house outside? I saw someone inside. They were very good-looking. They wore good clothes and their skin was beautiful." There are no wounds, do you think they will have any medicine?"
"medicine?"
Shen Ping is older than Xu Xiaoan, probably eight or nine years old.
When Xu Xiaoan heard about the medicine, his eyes lit up: "I was in so much pain that I couldn't sleep at night. If there was medicine, wouldn't it be so painful?"
"Of course!" Shen Ping said excitedly: "My dad picked up a bottle of medicine called 'disinfectant water' in the ruins before. I used a little. Although it hurt when I used it, it didn't get bigger. , but it’s a pity that after using it up, the wound started to get bigger again.”
The two children talked excitedly to each other, and finally looked at the beautiful house outside with expectant faces.
"...It was still early when we went out in the morning. It was still dark at that time and we didn't see the house outside, so we went out. When we got closer, we discovered...
At that time, I saw no one outside, so I wanted to get closer to see what was going on. But after we got closer, the house suddenly lit up, and there were many more people outside...
Without looking carefully, we were scared and ran back directly. "
A round of information was also exchanged in the living room outside, and finally the Shen couple came to a conclusion: "That house looks like a store, and there are all kinds of things in it..."
As they spoke, they couldn't help but swallow.
They had reached the front of the store and could see what was going on inside through a transparent glass wall.
Aren’t those rows of shelves filled with all kinds of food?
The garbage left over from more than a hundred years ago looked similar to what they saw on the shelves.
When they were young, they heard their parents say that those garbage bags were originally filled with edible food.
The two elders of the Xu family frowned, but they were still wary: "Is there any danger?"
"No, no, no. The people inside were moving very fast, but they didn't catch up when they discovered us. At least they didn't have any ill intentions towards us. In fact, we can go and have a look."
The Shen couple were explaining. At this time, Xu Rui, who had been looking at the situation outside, suddenly said: "There's something moving!"
The rest of the people quickly looked closer and found several banners hung outside the house, hanging from the roof, with a few large characters particularly obvious.
It's just that they don't know any words at all, so they can only let the old man read it.
But he was only in the fifth or sixth grade back then, and after so many years, he had almost forgotten the few words he knew. It took the two old men a long time to piece together and barely recognize the words.
‘Wanjie Store, great opening offer, 20% off for everything’
"This……"
The people in the room looked at each other, really unable to understand what this meant.
The old man frowned and explained: "It should mean selling cheaply. This should be a store selling things?"
He was very unsure, because there are no stores anywhere now. I'm afraid even the land has been lifted up and turned over. Where can there be anything to sell?
"But, don't you go and take a look? There is nothing to eat at home..."
Originally, he should have been scavenging outside now, but it was just that this house appeared suddenly, so he never dared to go out.
If they don't go out to find something to eat today, they will only be hungry for one day. If they are hungry today, they will have no strength tomorrow. Without strength, they will not be able to find something to eat, and then they will starve to death.
They have seen too many such things, so they dare not stop. If they stop for one day, they may starve to death.
The two old men looked at each other as if they had made up their minds.
"I'll go out with the old lady, and you just stay at home and wait for us to come back."
Anyway, they have lived enough, or have lived enough long ago. If they were born in this era from the beginning and have never seen real prosperity, they can still accept it calmly.
But now every day of my life is suffering, both physically and mentally.
Moreover, they used their old lives to explore an unknown future for their children and grandchildren, and their deaths were not in vain.

A destruction should lead to a cultural disconnect, right?
