After rebirth in the end of the world, I cut off all love and hoarded goods desperately

After finding a suitable landing point and riding a motorcycle to reach the destination, it was already half light. Li Ke walked casually on the beach with a shovel in his hand. As long as there was a puddle with water, he could always find a few such fish.

The current beach used to be land. There was not much sand on the beach, but mostly thick mud. Under the sun, layers of cracked soil formed, giving people a very anxious visual feeling.

Li Ke walked along the beach for a while and stopped at a beach blocked by a small hill. Then he took out a folding chair and sat down on the beach, starting to collect sea water into his own space.

She didn't know what use this fish would have in the future, but since she had discovered it, Li Ke planned to stockpile some in advance. Anyway, there were scientific researchers in Qiu Feng's base now, and they would be able to figure out something sooner or later.

When the sun came out, Li Ke put away the chair and started digging a hole in the mountain next to her. She dug out a place for one person to live and went in.

A gray blackout cloth the same color as the mountain was nailed to the entrance of the cave. After completing the concealment, Li Ke placed a large stone in the cave that almost filled it up, leaving room for only one person, and then entered the space.

The stream in the space has become longer and longer, and the water flow is much greater than before. It meanders in the space and wants to reach farther places. Li Ke dug a lot of reservoirs near the source of the stream and diverted some of the water into these reservoirs.

When she came to the seawater pool she had collected, there were quite a few strange fish in it, but the number was not really large. No one was collecting these things yet. Li Ke planned to get more mutant fish before that, so that she wouldn't have to compete with ordinary people for resources in the future.

After the sun came out, the temperature rose quickly. Li Ke didn't plan to work in the high temperature during the day. She would go out at night and fish with the boat and net. She would do it all night and leave at dawn the next day.

After taking a nap in the space, he took the dogs for a run, inspected the various situations in the space, and did some simple poop-shoveling work. Tired of playing, Li Ke took a nap with the dogs. Only when he felt it was about time did Li Ke come out of the space.

It was almost eight o'clock in the evening. As soon as he came out of the space, he was enveloped by a humid and crowded atmosphere in the cave. Li Ke put away the big stone and was about to push open the cloth door outside when he heard some slight noises.

She stopped, took out a bulletproof glass from the space and put it in front of her, then extended the black knife through the curtain, opened a small gap and looked out.

A group of people appeared on the deserted beach in the distance. They were squatting on the ground with buckets and basins beside them, as if they were digging something. Some of them were moving towards this side. There were seven people standing around them, and these seven people were either holding bows and arrows or holding sticks and sharp weapons.

Li Ke took advantage of the fact that they were still some distance away from here and no one was paying attention, walked out, and put away the cloth curtain that was the same color as the mountain.

Hiding behind the mountain and observing with a telescope for a while, I found that those people were not looking for mutant fish, but some long creatures dug out from under some moist soil, washed them casually in the water, and threw them into the container next to them.

Some people stood up and looked for targets elsewhere. Li Ke moved his gaze downwards and found that these people had iron chains on their feet and their ankles were wrapped with rags to reduce some friction damage.

Upon further observation, these people were all women and underage children. There were relatively few men among the seven people guarding them. Li Ke counted them and found that excluding the seven guards, there were fifty-nine women and children. All of them were very thin. Judging from the way they walked, many of them must have injuries.

Li Ke took a telescope and observed the exits in the distance. Two trucks could be vaguely seen on the road in the distance, but the rest of the place was blocked by some broken walls and could not be seen.

Li Ke recalled that when she came today, there were no signs of excavation in the mud on the beach. These people might have come to this area for the first time, but it is not ruled out that there would be waves rising at night and flattening these traces.

The crowd was gradually moving towards her. She didn't see any firearms in the other party's hands. Li Ke looked at the sky. The sun was now like a huge blood-orange semicircle setting on the sea level. She didn't know when these people came, nor when they would leave, but Li Ke didn't intend to shrink back in humiliation.

She was carrying a large backpack and walking to the other side. Outside the mountain, there were not many things that could provide shelter. Li Ke had no intention of going forward to rescue people, she just wanted to finish her own job quickly.

She had only taken two steps when someone spotted her and shouted at her to stop. Li Ke ignored the voice and kept walking forward. Soon, a faint sound of breaking air was heard. Li Ke turned around and saw an arrow landed five meters behind her. It seemed that the opponent's bow and arrow were not very useful.

A man holding a bow and arrow and a man holding a machete ran towards Li Ke. When Li Ke stopped, the man holding the bow shouted, "If you move any further, I'll shoot your head with this arrow!"

Li Ke watched them running up to him breathlessly. The man holding the bow and arrow picked up the arrows on the ground, and then surrounded Li Ke with the man holding the knife: "What's in your backpack? Where are you from? Do you have any accomplices? Tell me everything if you know what's good for you!"

Li Ke stood still: "What does this have to do with you? You and I have nothing to do with each other. Are you sure you want to do it?"

Those people in the distance were also moving quickly towards this side. It seemed that the other guards also wanted to come over quickly to give their two companions some momentum.

The man holding the machete looked at Li Ke's outfit with some envy: "This is our territory. If you enter our territory, you have to join us. If you don't want to suffer, hand over your backpack and take off your helmet and clothes."

The man holding the bow and arrow calmed down his breath and pointed the arrow at Li Ke again: "Be obedient and hand over your backpack first, or I will send you to hell!"

Li Ke looked at the arrow, and in the other party's expectant eyes, she suddenly raised her hand, and a mini pistol appeared in her palm. The bullet that was fired instantly penetrated the other party's head. In the other party's unwilling eyes, Li Ke quickly changed her hand and shot the man with the machete to death with another shot.

Time seemed to freeze for a second. The guards and the people they were driving over stopped and began to retreat subconsciously. This time the initiative fell into Li Ke's hands.

She raised her gun and pointed it at the people who were retreating: "Be good and don't hide, otherwise you will end up like them."

The deterrent power of the pistol was much more effective than the backward sticks and knives in their hands. The men did not dare to retreat anymore. The women and children carefully huddled on the ground to reduce their presence. Some of the brave ones secretly cast expectant glances at Li Ke.

Li Ke pointed the muzzle of his gun at the five men and said, "Come out and throw the things in your hands aside."

Those people came out very obediently and threw the sticks and knives in their hands to the ground, but their movements were a little slow. Li Ke narrowed his eyes and fired at one of the people with a strange look. The bullet penetrated his palm. The man was stunned for a moment before raising his hand and letting out a scream.

Li Ke pointed the gun at him and said coldly: "Don't scream again, or I will send you away now."

The man's face turned pale with pain, and after hearing what Li Ke said, he could only close his mouth with a distorted face, not daring to make another sound.

Li Ke spoke again: "Take off their chains."

One of the men whispered back, "It can't be removed. The chains are welded shut. There's not even a key. There's nothing we can do."

Li Ke turned his gaze towards the main road, where there seemed to be no cars. "Kneel down and answer my questions. How many cars did you drive here? How many companions do you have? Did they go back to your nest to call for help?"

Several men knelt down under the threat of gunpoint, and the same man answered: "There are three cars in total, and each car has a driver. We still have more than a thousand people in our base. If you are alone, you can join us. With your skills, the boss will definitely use you and give you a very high position. We are all trying to survive now. We just want to ask you some questions and have no intention of killing you."

Li Ke asked coldly: "Does the more than a thousand people you mentioned include these locked people?"

Just as the man was about to speak, a boy's voice answered first: "There are not a thousand people. His companions are more than 280 people. They have captured more than 500 people, including us. They capture women and children everywhere, and men as well, but men and women and children will do things separately."

Li Ke looked at the boy who was talking. He was small, about twelve or thirteen years old, with short hair on his head, and some of his hair had fallen off, revealing his scalp. His eyes were clear, and the skin on his hands and feet was severely burned like the others, with scars of varying sizes.
