End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

It was already dark, but I could still vaguely see some things, and the rustling sound was coming from far away.

There were three people coming, and from their figures they were of different heights. Lu Zhu could tell that there were two men and one woman among them.

Men's footsteps are heavier than women's footsteps.

"Who are you? Stand there and don't move~" The speaker was Chen Hua.

Lu Zhu and Xuan Guang's reactions alerted the others, and everyone who was sitting stood up.

Of course, the reactions varied. Some were still holding bowls like Lu Zhu, some were still serving soup and put down their bowls immediately when they heard the noise, and some were already full.

After hearing the warning, the three men immediately stopped moving in this direction.

"Hello, we were also forced to this mountain by the water. We have no ill intentions. We would like to ask if you have any medicine for colds or strong liquor? We can exchange other things for them," one of them shouted.

Judging from the voice, it seems to be a middle-aged man, with a hoarse, anxious and a little sad voice.

Lu Zhu inexplicably felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

Lu Zhu and Chen Hua looked at each other and nodded to him.

Chen Hua made a gesture to the others behind him and waited and watched what would happen.

"Come closer~" Chen Hua said.

The three people opposite were obviously happy to get permission, and their steps became lighter.

They didn't stop until the firelight illuminated their faces.

"Where are you from?" Chen Hua remained vigilant and looked carefully at the three people opposite him.

The atmosphere was a bit tense, with a sense of imminent destruction.

Before they could answer, the girl opposite shouted happily.

"Sister Lu Zhu~?"

"Brother, look, it's Sister Lu Zhu..." The girl's voice was pleasant and crisp.

Her shout instantly broke the solemn atmosphere.

Everyone's eyes turned to Lu Zhu involuntarily.

Lu Zhu: “…”

"Sister Lu Zhu, I'm Xie He!" The girl pulled off the cloth covering her head and face, revealing her face.

"Xie He!!" Lu Zhu was also a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet her here. The person next to her must be his brother Xie Tang.

Before Lu Zhu could recover from her surprise, the middle-aged man also spoke in astonishment.

"Lu Zhu? Are you really the Lu Zhu from the Liu family?"

"Uncle Lin~" Lu Zhu's eyes widened. She didn't expect to have the shock of meeting so many old friends tonight.

Since they knew each other, Chen Hua and the others let down their guard.

Invite the three of them to sit down and talk slowly.

"Are you looking for medicine? Is someone sick?" Lu Zhu asked.

"It's my Siru. She was caught in the snow and frozen for a while. She started coughing then. The snow suddenly melted and she fell into the water again. We finally got to the mountain but she collapsed. She is a little unconscious now. If you have any medicine, please save her~" Lam Ka-tung is a man in his forties and his voice was choked with sobs. He was about to kneel down to beg for medicine.

Lu Zhu dragged him up. After all, he was her father's good friend and had helped her before, so she could still help with this small favor.

Without further ado, let them lead the way to where they are staying.

Chen Hua, Luo Chenyang, Lu Zhu, followed Lin Jiadong and the other two, while the others stayed where they were to guard their supplies.

"Uncle Lin, how did you get here?" Lu Zhu asked as they walked on the road.

“It’s a long story. I didn’t pay attention to what you said when you left at first. But then natural disasters happened one after another around the world, so I became more cautious and took my family to inspect the branch companies in inland areas, which was also considered a trip. I didn’t expect to encounter the rainstorm that swept the world, and then the extreme cold…” Speaking of this, Lam Ka-tung sighed.

“When I was packing to inspect the company, I saw the first aid kit you gave me. I don’t know how I ended up taking it with me. I didn’t expect that it was the first aid kit that saved our family. Uncle, I really don’t know how to thank you.” Lam Ka Tung smiled gratefully, but it was too dark and no one could see it. The relief in his tone was evident.

The others did not interrupt, but just listened silently and followed them.

"I'm glad I could help you. I had been planning to tell you about the end of the world, but I was afraid you wouldn't believe me at that time, so I could only give you something I thought would be useful... I'm glad you didn't blame me," Lu Zhu said calmly, looking at the road under his feet.

“To be honest, if you told me that the end of the world was coming, I might think that you were having hysteria after losing your loved ones. Maybe I would withdraw my idea of ​​helping you. Even if I did help you, I might just give you some money so that you would give up the idea of ​​selling your shares! After all, your company can allow you to live well even if you ignore the annual dividends~…” Lin Jiadong said calmly, moving the grass leaves under his feet.

"The first aid kit you gave us saved more than one life. How could I blame you..."

The solar lights appeared and disappeared on the mountain road at night. After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, we finally arrived at the place where Lin Jiadong and his friends were staying.

A simple tent was set up here. A small tree was placed between two trees and fixed by bark. A waterproof cloth was placed on it with some moss and branches on it, probably to prevent the waterproof cloth from being blown away by the wind.

The things in the tent were also very simple, a fire, an iron bowl for boiling water, a few backpacks and a rubber boat.

One girl was lying on the ground covered with a tarp while another girl was taking care of her.

When she heard the voice, she turned around and found that she knew the person.

"Sister Yifeng..." Lu Zhu was really shocked this time. She didn't expect Zhou Yifeng to be here too.

"Lu Zhu~" Zhou Yifeng smiled slightly, his eyes full of joy.

There was no time for greetings, the person lying on the ground was now the focus of attention.

Lu Zhu didn’t know any medicine, so he could only give her the medicine he had available.

His forehead was still very hot, and finally Lu Zhu took out a bottle of strong liquor, Mianzhu, from his backpack.

Lu Zhu picked up this wine while shopping at the seafood market.

Although strong liquor is powerful, sometimes it can be used to do many things, such as cooking. Warming up the body is just the basics. Adding medicinal ingredients makes it into medicinal liquor, which can save lives if used properly.

Now Lin Siru can be cooled down physically. Since she is a girl, the man is asked to fetch water, add white wine and use it to wipe her body.

After working for several hours, I finally managed to control her body temperature and prevent her from getting hot again.

In order to take better care of them, Lu Zhu sought the consent of Chen Hua and the other two before bringing the five of them back to their team.

Lin Siru's fever had subsided, but she was still very weak and semi-comatose, so Lin Guodong personally carried her to their destination.

Lu Zhu found a place for them to stay by the fire. Although it was already late at night, everyone here was still awake.

Lu Zhu briefly introduced themselves to each other.

Although it was a bit unexpected that someone was joining the team, he didn't feel any rejection because Lu Zhu knew the person after all.

It was getting late, and the night passed in silence as everyone found a place to rest.
