Stockpiling in the Apocalypse: Supplies Forging a Legend of Survival

Liu Ruoyan didn't look much. She chose a direction and drove away.

The purpose of this outing was simple.

She was going to bring back grains and seeds to exchange for contribution points.

Besides that, Liu Ruoyan also wanted to take out the iron grille door and put it on the roof of the car to bring it back together.

Originally, she just wanted to wander around near the base to kill some time and then return after midnight.

However, Liu Ruoyan didn't expect that just after turning a corner and driving not far, she saw dense nail boards placed on the road ahead.

Liu Ruoyan quickly stepped on the brakes and at the same time looked in the rearview mirror.

A car had already stopped at the intersection behind, blocking it tightly. Seeing this situation, Liu Ruoyan understood clearly that she had encountered highway robbers.

In the apocalypse, highway robbers were not uncommon.

But this place was at most a few kilometers away from the First Base.

Liu Ruoyan didn't expect that there would be people blocking the road here. On both sides of this road were farmlands.

The road was about half a meter higher than the farmlands, and there were trees planted along the roadside.

Even though the trees were almost dead now, it wouldn't be a good idea to directly crash into them.

The corners of Liu Ruoyan's mouth curled up.

Since there was no way to force her way out, she might as well stay! Just then, not far ahead, four men walked out from behind the trees on both sides of the road.

Four men also got out of the car at the intersection behind.

All eight men were wearing black clothes and black pants and had shaved heads. In the first year of the apocalypse, shaved heads were not uncommon.

Not all bases were as lucky as the First Base with no shortage of water.

Many small bases even had problems with drinking water, let alone washing.

With no way to wash their hair and the hot weather, not only men and children but also some women would shave their heads.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be pleasant to have lice in the hair. In the face of survival, beauty and ugliness naturally didn't matter that much.

Liu Ruoyan looked at these eight bald men and didn't rush to get out of the car.

Instead, she carefully observed them.

By the light of the car headlights, Liu Ruoyan could see them clearly.

After confirming that they didn't have firearms but only some cold weapons like steel pipes and machetes, Liu Ruoyan leaned sideways, reached out from the passenger seat and took out her Tang sword.

This group of people walked slowly, as if they were enjoying the fun of hunting.

When Liu Ruoyan stood still beside the car, they were still a few meters away from her. Seeing Liu Ruoyan getting out of the car alone, the group of bald men laughed at the same time.

"Good luck! It's actually a girl!"

"Although she's wearing a mask, just looking at that figure, you can tell she's not bad!"

"Little girl, what's that in your hand? I advise you to be sensible and don't resist. Otherwise, don't blame us for not being gentle."

Liu Ruoyan silently pulled out her Tang sword.

The sword glinted with a cold light, and anyone could tell it was a good thing at a glance. The bald men didn't expect Liu Ruoyan to draw her sword either and were all a bit surprised.

But the surprise only lasted for a moment. Soon they threw their heads back and laughed loudly.

"You little girl, you're even playing with a sword! Little beauty, listen to big brother.

Put the sword down. That's not something for you to play with! If you want to play, big brother has a gun for you to play with.

You can play as much as you like, hahahahaha!"

The other bald men also laughed when they heard this. Hearing the filthy words of the bald men, the coldness in Liu Ruoyan's eyes grew even stronger.

The last person who talked to her like this was Brother Dao and his group, and she had already sent them to their doom.

Since these bald men in front of her had also lived long enough, she might as well send them on their way too.

Liu Ruoyan held the Tang sword in one hand and reached for the car keys hanging on her body with the other hand to turn off the headlights.

As the headlights of the Hummer went out, it suddenly became dark around. Although the headlights of the car at the intersection were on, they were quite far away and didn't have much effect.

Suddenly it was dark in front of them, and the group of bald men were all startled. Before they could react, the sound of rapid footsteps could be heard.

A cold light flashed in front of a bald man's eyes. Before he could react, his body and head were already separated.

Liu Ruoyan didn't hesitate at all.

She raised the sword and slashed at the person next to her.

After Liu Ruoyan killed four people in a row, the others were both shocked and angry.

Their eyes had also adapted to the darkness.

They held the weapons in their hands and, by the faint light in the distance, tried to identify Liu Ruoyan's direction and rushed towards her.

Compared with them, Liu Ruoyan was slender and petite, but she was extremely agile.

The long Tang sword in Liu Ruoyan's hand made it impossible for these bald men to get close to her.

After just a few minutes of fighting, three of the remaining four people had fallen to the ground again.

The only one left had already had one of his arms cut off by Liu Ruoyan.

Seeing Liu Ruoyan approaching step by step, the man with the broken arm's knees went weak and he directly knelt on the ground.

"Beauty! Big sister! Female hero! I'm wrong! I was blind and offended you!

Please be magnanimous and spare my worthless life!"

Hearing the man's words, Liu Ruoyan stopped in her tracks.

Seeing this, the man grinned.

Just then, Liu Ruoyan swung her right hand, and the tip of the Tang sword slashed across the man's neck.

The man instantly fell to the ground, twitched twice, and then was completely silent.

Liu Ruoyan, holding the sword, walked quickly towards the car at the intersection.

After approaching the bus, Liu Ruoyan didn't rush to get on it.

She wasn't sure if there were still people on the bus.

Standing three meters away from the bus, Liu Ruoyan thought for a moment, took out a smoke grenade from her pocket, opened it, and threw it directly into the open door of the bus.

Soon, the bus was filled with smoke. This smoke not only blocked people's sight but also had a very pungent smell.

If there were people on the bus, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long and would run down.

Liu Ruoyan waited quietly.

Sure enough, after a few dozen seconds, two bald men rushed down from the bus.

As soon as they came down, they pounced on Liu Ruoyan and were cut down to the ground by Liu Ruoyan with two quick slashes.

It wasn't that these people were too useless.

It was that Liu Ruoyan was far more powerful than them.

Liu Ruoyan had been surviving in the apocalypse for ten years, fighting for her life countless times and living on the edge of the sword.

What she knew was no longer just fist and foot kung fu, but killing moves.

Every move she made was a deadly move!

Moreover, in this life, she had a handy weapon, and she had been training hard in the past nearly one year.

Of course, it was no problem for her to deal with these amateur hooligans.

If she couldn't even deal with them, Liu Ruoyan thought that she might as well find a hole and bury herself.

Only when the smoke on the bus had completely dissipated did Liu Ruoyan get on the bus.

The inside of the bus was in a mess. Things were thrown everywhere in a disorderly manner, and there were cigarette butts and ash everywhere.

The seats at the back of the bus had been removed, and there were quite a few boxes piled up.

It seemed that they were all supplies. Liu Ruoyan raised her eyebrows and walked forward to check. This check really surprised Liu Ruoyan a little.

There were six boxes of wine, four boxes of cigarettes, with all kinds of brands inside.

There were also two boxes of compressed biscuits, two boxes of canned food, six boxes of instant noodles, two boxes of sausages, and a dozen boxes of mineral water.

The total number of bags of rice, flour, and other grains was also more than a dozen.
