Rebirth in the End of the World: My Little Godly Man

Immediately afterwards, Liu Chi was responded to by silence.

Mo Yanshu drank some water and looked at the map with a frown on his face.

After a few seconds, the smile on Liu Chi's face gradually collapsed: "No, why didn't you ask me..."

"Ahem." Li Muchen coughed lightly and turned to say, "Brother Liu, your family is in D City. It would be good for you to go back earlier. Why are you keeping us in suspense at this time?"

Liu Chi paused when he heard this, then turned his head away and muttered softly, "You guys are so boring, teaming up to bully me alone."

"The main thing is that you kept us in suspense at the wrong time. Look at our Yanshu, his brows are almost wrinkled into a "川" shape, and you are still so proud. It's strange that he would pay attention to you..."

Li Muchen said with a smile, as if after the misunderstanding was resolved, he didn't take the previous things to heart, and patiently explained to Liu Chi.

Liu Chi snorted when he heard this, and then said, "Give me the map. I can only draw a rough outline, but there is indeed a small road here that leads directly to City D. It should be because there is no convenient highway, and later there were too few people walking on it, so it is not shown on the map."

"Then how did you dig out this road?" Li Muchen turned around and asked.

"I didn't dig this road." Liu Chi answered seriously, but then he felt that he had misunderstood him, so he clenched his fist and said, "My dad didn't allow me to go out and fool around, but I was very rebellious at that time, so I found this road with my friends."

"Oh~" Li Muchen nodded, thinking, "Actually, you are not much better now."

Looking at Liu Chi's flushed face, Li Muchen smiled brightly at him. Without saying anything more, he took the map from Liu Chi's hand and handed it to Mo Yanshu.

Mo Yanshu took the map, glanced at it, and put it in the storage box in front of the passenger seat without saying a word.

The car started moving slowly again.

After driving for an unknown amount of time, they passed by a small service area.

Several pigeons stood on the telephone poles in the service area, motionless.

"I'll go take a look, just don't move." Mo Yanshu turned off the engine, pulled out a dagger from the side of his overalls, opened the car door and walked out first.

The moment the driver's door was closed, the pigeon on the telephone pole seemed to be startled by the slight sound. It flapped its wings and flew away into the distance, and soon disappeared.

Mo Yanshu frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Li Muchen also opened the car door, but as soon as the door opened a little, Mo Yanshu outside pushed it back.

Li Muchen rolled down the window and whispered, "I'll go with you. I promise I won't leave you more than 2 meters."

"Wait in the car." Mo Yanshu looked deep. After saying this, he walked towards the service area with a dagger in his hand.

The evening wind was getting colder. Mo Yanshu turned his head to look to the west. The sunlight was getting weaker and it was almost night.

Seeing this, he quickly walked towards the service area.

Lifting the curtain at the door, in the dim light, there were three rows of cracked plastic chairs inside, looking like they had been in disrepair for a long time.

The entire service area was silent; the sound of his footsteps echoed in the space, sounding extremely lonely.

I walked around the area but found nothing. The surrounding area looked overgrown with weeds and seemed to be a service area that had been abandoned for some time.

There was no food and no people.

When he walked out, Mo Yanshu immediately met Li Muchen who was sticking his head out and looking inside.

His eyes softened slightly, he quickly walked back to the car, opened the door, and sat in the driver's seat again.

"It's almost night." Li Muchen rolled up the car window, turned his head and looked at him, "It's better not to travel overnight. We should be able to reach City D tomorrow, and then we can find a way to replenish. If we save on food, we can still last for a while..."

"Yeah." Mo Yanshu nodded, seeming a little absent-minded.

Xu Fei in the back row glanced out the window, then said in a deep voice: "Is there nothing inside?"

"No." Mo Yanshu responded.

"This service area has been abandoned for a long time." Liu Chi suddenly said, "I remember that I sneaked out of my house several years ago and I seemed to have walked along this road..."

"Why didn't you say so earlier..." Li Muchen glanced at him speechlessly.

"You didn't ask me! And I just remembered it. But if I remember correctly, there is a small store not far ahead. I don't know if it is still open now..."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yanshu raised his hand and took out his cell phone, 17:28.

"How far?" he asked in a deep voice.

Liu Chi thought for a moment and said, "It'll only take about ten minutes to drive..."

Mo Yanshu exhaled slowly: "You show the way."

……

"Turn right here."

After Liu Chi finished speaking, Mo Yanshu turned a corner as he said, and a simple small shed appeared in front of them.

At this time, the sun had completely disappeared below the western horizon. A thin layer of mist filled the sky, and the surrounding scenery gradually became dim.

The Moyan book cart stopped not far from the small shed, and several people looked at it from across the road.

This was a small wooden shed that looked very simple. Behind it was a small brick house with white painted exterior walls. Because of the bloody rain, the white walls were now covered with reddish-brown mottled marks, making them look extremely eerie.

"It doesn't look like there's anyone here." Lu Xingchen bit the beef jerky in his hand and frowned slightly, "Is it necessary to go down..."

Mo Yanshu narrowed his eyes, looked at the crows flying into the sky not far away, thought for a moment and said, "Let's go in and take a look tomorrow morning. We won't rush today, let's rest first."

"Tomorrow morning?" Liu Chi was puzzled. He rolled down the car window and stuck most of his head out. "It doesn't seem like anything. Why wait until tomorrow morning? Are you going to rest in the car tonight? You won't even be able to lie down..."

"Lie down?" Mo Yanshu glanced at him and said in a cold voice, "Two people in a group, take turns to keep watch."

"Then I'll be on the first shift. I'm the best at staying up late." Liu Chi volunteered.

After he finished speaking, the car fell into silence again. After a while, Lu Xingchen coughed and said, "I can too. I'll go with him."

"Li Muchen and I will take over your duties in the second half of the night." Xu Fei continued. She looked at Mo Yanshu and said in a gentle voice, "You have to drive. You will be more focused if you have a good rest."

"No need, Muchen and I will be in the same class." Mo Yanshu frowned and rejected Xu Fei's kindness.

Xu Fei did not insist and responded softly: "Okay, wake me up anytime when you need me."

"Ah."

It was not comfortable to sleep while sitting in the car. Li Muchen slept very uneasily. Maybe it was because he was so nervous, but he woke up almost every two hours.

He knew that Mo Yanshu would not stop at this place for no reason. In addition to wanting to go to the small shed tomorrow morning to take a look, there must be other reasons. Thinking of this, his anxiety became more and more serious.

In the middle of the night, Liu Chi and Lu Xingchen stared at each other at the two sides of the car window. It was quiet all around, with nothing there. It seemed as if there were only five of them in the whole world.

The blood moon hung high in the sky, emitting a heart-pounding dark red light.

In the silent night sky, a crow suddenly called twice, which was particularly abrupt.

At this moment, Li Muchen suddenly opened his eyes...
