Lu Xinyi looked back and saw a man and a woman with two children under ten years old running towards them.

She subconsciously tightened the Miao Dao in her hand, maintaining the posture of drawing the sword, and looked at the person coming vigilantly.

The two men ran and stood a few meters away from the SUV.

The man held his knees with both hands and took a few deep breaths before he pleaded with Lu Xinyi, "Please take us away, please? There are only four of us left in Taoyuan Village. We really don't know what to do next."

The woman held back her tears and hugged her two children tightly in her arms, her slightly rough face full of sadness.

Lu Xinyi looked at the family of four and asked, "Are you villagers from Taoyuan Village?"

The man nodded immediately. "Yes, our ancestors have been villagers of Taoyuan Village for generations. My name is Li Dashan, this is my wife Zhang Cui, and my children Li Mingxuan and Li Mingxiu."

Lu Xinyi said nothing, observing the couple calmly.

Both of them looked very ordinary, with simple expressions in their eyes, and it didn't look like they had any ulterior motives.

She looked at the hands of the two men again. Their hands were very rough. Li Dashan's hands were covered with thick calluses, which were obviously left by long-term labor.

As for their children, the boy was estimated to be eight or nine years old, and the girl was about five or six years old. They looked quite similar to the couple, both of them looked very honest and simple.

"Where were you hiding before?" Lu Xinyi asked.

When she was cleaning up Taoyuan Village today, she didn't see a single survivor. Where did this family of four come from?

Li Dashan replied: "We hid in the cellar of our house. Because our Taoyuan Village has become a tourist village, many people come to travel. We are afraid of misunderstandings that are difficult to explain, so we installed surveillance cameras at the door of every household, and then..."

He said, looking at Lu Xinyi cautiously, "I saw you killing zombies through the surveillance on my phone. We don't have the courage to kill zombies. We can only wait until you kill all the zombies in the village before we dare to come out."

"Don't dare to kill zombies?" Lu Xinyi raised an eyebrow. "You are a grown man, but you don't even dare to kill zombies. Why should I take you away?"

Li Dashan was choked by her words and lowered his head without confidence.

Instead, his wife Zhang Cui stepped forward and said, "Although we dare not kill zombies, we can help you with the work! My husband is a good farmer, and the vegetables we grow are better than others. I can cook, and I think my cooking skills are pretty good. As for my two children, don't look at them as young, they can also work!"

His expression and words were filled with the hope of being taken away.

Lu Xinyi pursed her lips and said nothing.

The scope of the Oasis Base has expanded a lot now, but there are still only her and Qin Jue in the base.

If you have a base, you naturally need base members.

I just don’t know if there will be any points reward for hosting survivors in her base?

Just as she was thinking this, she heard the system's voice rang out -

"Ding Dong! It is detected that a member wants to join the Oasis Base. Do you agree, host? For each additional base member, you will receive a reward of 1000 points, and the base members will always be loyal to the host."

Lu Xinyi spoke in a yin-yang tone: "System, you are so considerate. You know everything I am thinking."

The system pretended not to understand her words and said, "The responsibility of this system is to provide services to the host, think what the host thinks, worry about what the host worries about, and strive to create a better future for the host!"

Lu Xinyi: "Okay."

Ignoring the system, she looked at the couple in front of her again.

"I have an oasis base, and Taoyuan Village has now become a part of the oasis base. If you want to join my oasis base, you can, but..."

Upon hearing this, the couple knew that there were conditions for joining the Oasis Base, but they still held hope in their hearts.

"But what?" Li Dashan asked carefully.

Lu Xinyi raised her finger and pointed at him, saying without giving him any room for resistance: "You have to kill a zombie with your own hands, and show me that you have the courage and ability to kill zombies. Now is the apocalypse, there are zombies everywhere, and my base will not accept men who dare not kill zombies."

Li Dashan was stunned when he heard this, obviously not expecting her to make such a request.

He looked at Lu Xinyi hesitantly, then at his wife and children, and met their confused and fearful gazes.

In fact, the young girl in front of him is right. As a man, if he doesn’t even have the courage and ability to kill zombies, how can he protect his wife and children in the future?

After pondering for a while, he looked at Lu Xinyi again and nodded firmly and resolutely: "I promise you! As long as you promise to let us join your base and give us a meal!"

“I promise that as long as you are a member of my base, you will never go hungry, and your quality of life and safety will be guaranteed.” Lu Xinyi said seriously.

"Okay! I believe you!"

After saying this, Li Dashan turned around and looked at his wife and children resolutely, then walked straight towards the main road at the entrance of the village with a heroic and high-spirited step.

All the zombies in the village were killed by Lu Xinyi and Qin Ju. He wanted to kill a zombie to prove himself, so he could only look for one on the main road.

However, there were large tracts of farmland all around, and he searched for a long time before he saw a zombie in a rice field.

He took a deep breath, walked to the edge of the field, and walked straight towards the zombie.

Zhang Cui brought the two children to the edge of the field and looked at Li Dashan nervously and worriedly, but she didn't dare to say a word, for fear of disturbing the zombie and bringing danger to Li Dashan. She could only pray in her heart that he would come back safely.

Lu Xinyi and Qin Ju also walked slowly to the side of the mother and her two children, and lazily watched Li Dashan walk up to the zombie.

He obviously didn't know how to kill zombies. He didn't even have a weapon. He fought the zombies with his bare hands. He was almost bitten by the zombies several times, but fortunately he escaped safely.

Gradually, he finally realized that attacking the zombies' torsos and limbs was useless.

So, Li Dashan picked up a bamboo pole that was used to stick a scarecrow on the edge of the field, and made up his mind to stab the zombie's head hard.

The zombies finally stopped attacking and fell to the ground with a bang.

Li Dashan suddenly lost all his strength and collapsed on the edge of the field.

It took him a long while to regain some strength and he dragged his tired steps back to the roadside.

Zhang Cui and her two children immediately rushed to him, and the family hugged each other tightly.

After a while, Li Dashan came in front of Lu Xinyi, with a look of triumph on his face, and a simple smile, "I killed the zombie!"

Lu Xinyi stared at him for a few seconds, nodded slightly and said, "Well done. From now on, your family of four are all members of my Oasis Base."

She had just finished speaking——

"Ding Dong! Congratulations to the Oasis Base for adding four members, and a reward of 4000 points! Host, please keep up the good work and add more members to the base!"
