End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

After picking up a lot of supplies in the small town, Lu Zhu and his crew happily set off again.

There are many mountains here, so there are still many mountain roads. In order to have more time to rest and not drive tired, Lu Zhu finally accepted Chen Hua's suggestion and asked Li Shaoqiu to be his driving partner.

Li Shaoqiu is a sunny boy who speaks in an interesting way. He is completely different from Lu Zhu, who has an indifferent personality.

Just like now, he was driving and still chatted with Lu Zhu.

"Lu Zhu, what kind of fruit did you like to eat in the past? I remember when I was a kid, there was a persimmon tree in the yard that bore fruit every year. I waited for it to grow from green to yellow, and finally I couldn't resist and stole two and hid them in the rice jar. Guess what happened in the end?"

"What's the matter?" Although Lu Zhu was a little impatient, after all, someone was talking to him and he was here to help him, so he asked casually.

"Hehehe... at the end! After I went to school, I forgot about the persimmons in the rice jar. When my mom was scooping rice to cook, her hands got yellow. The persimmons rotted in the jar. When I got home, my mom chased me around the yard for a few laps, and then we had a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots~"

"Haha~" Lu Zhu imagined such a scene and couldn't help but laugh.

"Now that I think about it, it felt really good back then. Although my butt hurt a little, my family members were all there~" Li Shaoqiu sighed.

"Enjoy life while you can and don't think too much..." Lu Zhu racked her brains to comfort him dryly.

Just at this moment, the car in front suddenly stopped, and Lu Zhu and her friends' car also stopped.

"What's going on?" Li Shaoqiu opened the window of the driver's seat and looked out. Lu Zhu also turned his head to look forward. This was not a time to rest, nor was it a time to eat.

If there is a special need to stop and rest, the car in front will honk and signal.

This time there was nothing—

I couldn't see the situation clearly in front of me, I just saw people getting out of the car in front of me one after another, and Li Shaoqiu also unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.

Lu Zhu also got out of the car and followed to see what was going on.

Chen Hua and his friends formed a circle in front and started discussing with each other.

Lu Zhu and Li Shaoqiu's car was behind, so they arrived a little late.

When I squeezed to the front, I saw that there were two people in the middle of the road, one lying down and the other kneeling down crying with tears and snot all over their faces.

The two people were dressed in rags. From their appearance, it could be seen that they were a man and a woman, and the woman's bulging belly clearly showed that she was pregnant.

The person lying there was obviously in a coma, and no matter how the woman cried or shouted, he did not respond.

There is no village in front and no shop behind, so why are they lying in the middle of the road?

Chen Hua and the others did not approach rashly but kept a distance. After all, in this apocalyptic world, there are still many people who take advantage of people's sympathy.

In Luo Chenyang nearby, Xu Qizhou not only observed the people who suddenly appeared, but also kept his eyes and ears open in all directions, fearing an ambush.

Lu Zhu frowned his handsome brows and turned to look at Chen Hua. After all, he accounted for the majority of this small fleet.

Chen Hua gestured to Luo Chenyang and asked him to come forward to find out the situation.

"Sister~sister~please don't cry, what happened to you..." Luo Chenyang couldn't see the woman's face clearly, so he could only call her that.

The woman sobbed and shrank back in fear, but one hand tightly grasped the clothes of the man lying on the ground, trying to seek his protection.

Luo Chenyang had no choice but to rummage in his pocket for a long time before finding a piece of Xu Fuji crispy candy and handing it over. This was something he had kept privately and he was reluctant to give it away.

The woman's eyes lit up when she saw it. She didn't shrink back, but she didn't move either.

Luo Chenyang felt his body again with a painful look on his face, and pulled out another piece of chocolate from the lining of his clothes.

It was obvious that they had been close to each other for too long, the chocolate had melted and was soft in his hand, but it was unopened.

Xu Qizhou's eyes almost popped out, "Great! You actually have a secret stash!!"

Luo Chenyang glanced back and said, "What do you care..."

But just when he turned around to confront Xu Qizhou, the woman squatting on the ground snatched the candy from Luo Chenyang's hand with lightning speed, turned around and impatiently tore the packaging, and in a few seconds stuffed all the candy into her mouth.

She was obviously very hungry. The two pieces of candy were of no use and they all went into her stomach in less than a minute. She even tried hard to peel off the candy wrapper and lick it hard to clean off all the remaining sugar stains.

Finally, he wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve and stretched out his hand.

"Any more?"

Because of this woman, Chen Hua asked a few men to check around the situation, and finally decided to set up camp on the spot to rest.

I cooked a bowl of noodles for the woman and added lotus root powder from the supermarket to the soup. Only then did the woman recover.

The bowl she used was licked cleaner than washed~

The man had a head injury and a hole in his left leg. The woman also had many bruises on her body, her foot was sprained and she was pregnant.

Chen Hua's brows have not been relaxed since he saw them. Although he gave them some help temporarily, Chen Hua knew that they were all like clay Buddhas crossing the river and could not help the couple much.

"Thank you, you are such nice people~" The woman put down the bowl and began to wipe her tears again.

"How come you fell on the road? There is no base shelter this way! You have to go north~" Xu Qizhou looked at the woman and asked.

"I~we don't know~we are here to escape." The woman lowered her head and touched her belly which was several months old.

"Oh! Then you are going in the wrong direction." Xu Qizhou did not doubt the woman's words and accepted her statement.

"No, you're lying..." Hu Xinjie looked at the woman steadily, judging what she said.

The woman raised her head in surprise, caught everyone's gaze, and then quickly lowered it again.

"I'm telling the truth~ I'm not lying to you~"

Lu Zhu silently added some firewood to the fire and said, "You don't look like ordinary refugees. You are either setting a trap for us - or you are being hunted by someone, right!" Lu Zhu was very sure.

"Ah!~ You...we - no, no" The woman was a little panicked and at a loss.

"Where did you escape from~" Chen Hua also noticed it keenly and his voice became stern.

"Throw them into the water cellar in front and let's go~" Lu Zhu stood up decisively and made a decision.

Luo Chenyang's eyes rolled and he looked at Li Shaoqiu. The two of them hit it off and immediately made gestures to grab the woman.

The woman was frightened, and she rolled and crawled, hugging the legs of the person closest to her, crying and sobbing.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'm sorry, please don't abandon us like this, leave us a chance to live. I-we had no choice. That place was a bandit's den. We escaped with great difficulty. They had guns and knew how to kill people. They killed many people..."

"They are in the holiday villa in front. I didn't lie. We have been running for a day and a night... We don't want to die, please let us go~" The woman clung to him tightly, fearing that he would really throw her into the water cellar. Xu Qizhou's face was covered with cold sweat, and it hurt so much that he was grabbed.

Chen Hua and others opened their eyes wide, they didn't expect there would be such news~

At first I thought it was a trap. I wasn't afraid of so many of them, but if they had guns, then...

Lu Zhu's eyes were reserved. It seemed that this would be a tough nut to crack...
