Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

The Xue family had a disagreement over whether to escape or stay. The main opponent was Mr. Xue himself. Fengmei and Xue's father agreed to leave, but Xue's mother was undecided. She felt that no matter whether to leave or stay, the most important thing was that the family could be together.

"Dad, the children are still young, and you and mom are not in good health. If I leave now, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to protect you." Mr. Xue looked anxious and tried to persuade him a few more times.

However, Mr. Xue seemed determined to leave. He returned to his room in silence and took out the tools he had left over from decorating the house.

Xue's father had worked as a contractor for more than 30 years and still had some tools at home. He took out a hammer and weighed it in his hand, then took out another shovel.

He wanted to use the remaining time to modify these tools slightly, at least to make a handy tool for his son and daughter-in-law.

"Fengmei, are you insisting on leaving too?" Xue Gong looked at his lover, trying to hear a different opinion from her.

"I agree with what Dad said. Sometimes human hearts are scarier than monsters." Fengmei folded her arms, as if she was thinking of the miserable situation of the woman in the building opposite. She couldn't help but tremble at this moment.

Mr. Xue wanted to say something but stopped himself, and finally could only go back to the tea table and smoke a cigarette.

What really made Mr. Xue change his mind was the screams from another family in the middle of the night. That family was similar to theirs, with old people and children. The screams came from women, the elderly and the children, and lasted for less than ten minutes before the dull sound of something heavy falling to the ground was heard.

At 4:30 in the morning of that day, it started to rain heavily. This rain was not at all like the early spring rain. The rainfall was astonishing, and it lasted for three full hours without any change.

However, the heavy rain seemed to slow down the zombies' movements. The seven or eight zombies that were originally wandering downstairs raised their heads to welcome the rain, but it was obvious that they did not like the rain. After a few zombies roared a few times, they ran away in different directions. After that, no zombies could be seen in the community.

In the room, the goodies that Xue's father and Fengmei had worked on were already prepared.

Mr. Xue had prepared appropriate tools and protective gear for his family since the day before yesterday, while Fengmei and Mrs. Xue were preparing some supplies for when they left.

If you really have to leave for a rescue point, it is best to carry as simple items as possible.

The nearest rescue point to their community is about four kilometers away. It would take ten minutes by car and at least an hour on foot. However, if there were other accidents on the way, the time would be extended indefinitely.

I originally thought that the rain would end in one day, but until the afternoon of the next day, the rain still showed no sign of stopping, and the rain even spread to the steps on the first floor.

While the rain blocked the view between the buildings, Xue's mother hurried to retrieve the towel that she had placed on the balcony earlier. As a result, she was almost frightened to faint by the several corpses on the community flower beds.

It was clearly the family that had been killed earlier. One could even see the child lying on his back, his cotton coat soaked by the rain and turned into a different color.

Xue's mother was supported by Fengmei and returned to the room. Xue Gong immediately closed the balcony curtains and said solemnly, "No, the rain is too heavy. We can't leave even if we want to. If we encounter zombies on the way, getting our clothes wet in heavy rain will increase the burden on our bodies and we won't be able to run at all."

Father Xue, who was smoking on the opposite side, suddenly raised his head and said, "Let's get ready first. Once the rain stops, we must act immediately."
