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

In the next two days, Gu Tongwan and Yan Fan kept going back and forth in the northern forest. In just two days, the temperature in Jiangcheng was indeed as predicted by the Meteorological Bureau before. However, just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the temperature in the whole of China suddenly dropped by five to ten degrees. Even in Jiangcheng, the temperature dropped to only fourteen or fifteen degrees, and in the northern forest it was only about ten degrees.

When going out that day, Gu Tongwan was already wearing a quilted work windbreaker and thicker jeans.

As soon as he went out, he was blown by a cold wind and shivered all over. He shrank his neck and pulled his coat tighter.

I glanced at Ao Ao who was breathing with his tongue sticking out, and Tu Tu who was standing leisurely by the car licking his paws. Their fluffy and soft fur swayed left and right in the cold wind.

Last night, she took the two dogs to wash their bodies. After several years of training, the two dogs are still quite particular about hygiene. They will lick their hair clean after each training. Although they are canine creatures, there seems to be some decomposition substance in their saliva, which can clean dirt. Therefore, even after each training, the two dogs will clean themselves, which is a bit similar to cats licking their hair clean, and the licked areas are neat and smooth. She even deliberately sniffed the hair of the two dogs. Originally, she thought that animals would have some odor, but she didn't expect to smell any bad smell on Aoao and Tutu, and they even had the scent of pet shower gel.

It is not winter yet, but the sudden drop in temperature makes people somewhat uncomfortable. Gu Tongwan squatted down and put her arms around Aoao's neck. The fluffy hair instantly gave her warmth. Thinking of the extreme cold in the past two years, she also liked to use the two dogs as natural blankets. She would lie down with one as a pillow and use the other as a foot pad. When she put her feet on it, her whole feet would sink into the soft hair. It was simply a natural mobile warm baby.

Before leaving, Gu Tongwan went to take a look at the backyard. The dozens of bags of black mud that had been brought back were placed in the corner of the yard. The place that Liu Jinde and others had specially enclosed with cement bricks in the yard for farming was now available for use. However, there was also a small piece of land of about fifty or sixty square meters in the front yard. She planned to plant a few papaya trees there, because papaya is easy to survive and grows very fast. It can basically bear fruit in two years. She also wanted to do an experiment later. She didn't know whether the vegetable seeds taken out from the space could be successfully planted in reality. Secondly, if there was a chance, she also wanted to get some mutated soil from the "Valley of Death".

Because the store had been closed for a few days, Xu Hang had been sending messages asking when the lunch boxes would be supplied again. Gu Tongwan could only say that it would take two or three days before the store opened.

She probably didn't realize that the closure of her shop had worried housewives like Zhang Rong and Liu Wanrou a lot in the past few years. Ever since she took the vegetables bought from Gu Tongwan back home to cook, the dishes she cooked have become delicious. Even the children who never liked to eat are clamoring for an extra bowl of rice. Basically, the family members sit around the table on time when it is time for dinner, looking forward to eating early.

Zhang Rong looked at the empty refrigerator. In order to preserve the vegetables she bought, she spent a huge amount of money, spending nearly 5,000 points to buy a second-hand refrigerator. However, she did not expect that within a few days of buying it, she found out that the fruit and vegetable store downstairs had temporarily stopped business. This made Zhang Rong very anxious.

In fact, not only Zhang Rong, but even Liu Wanrou next door was extremely anxious. She even knocked on Zhang Rong's door in person, wanting to inquire about the fruit and vegetable store downstairs. As a result, after the two of them talked, they found out that they knew very little about the owner of the fruit and vegetable store, and he didn't even have his contact information. They regretted it so much.

Fortunately, Liu Wanrou's husband had joined a life group before, and Gu Tongwan's fruit and vegetable store was mentioned in the chat one day. I don't know who mentioned it in the chat, but she said that the proprietress had something to do recently and had temporarily closed the store. She had contacted her and confirmed that it would be open as usual the day after tomorrow.

This person had a chat avatar of a giant panda. As soon as he sent a message, a bunch of people followed up with questions.

[Is the news confirmed? Will the boss lady really come back? ]

[This restaurant has become my designated canteen, please don’t let it close down unexpectedly. ]

[Are you friends with the boss lady? Is this source of information reliable? ]

[I really regret eating the fruit from my boss’s wife’s house. Now I feel very uncomfortable if I don’t eat it for a day. ]

[Hey, my kid keeps asking for apples from this store, it’s really annoying me. ]

[Amitabha, just keep opening the store. ]

[The lady boss of this shop is too Buddhist, isn't she going to do something else when she has money to earn? If it were me, I would open the shop until 7 or 8 in the evening every day. ]

[I think she is just doing it for fun. I guess her family is not short of money. She is pretty and has a car and a pet. She dresses well. I guess running a shop is just her hobby. She doesn’t care whether it makes money or not.]

[Is the boss lady single? Even a girl like me is a little moved. She is really beautiful. Last time I passed by the store, I saw her from a distance and was simply stunned. ]

[Based on my intuition, the boss lady must be single, because I found that there was only one doll on the passenger seat of her car. ]

[If I am single, do I have hope? I have a house and a car, and I have no parents. I feel like I am in pretty good shape.]

[In that case, I seem to have good conditions. I have an elderly mother at home. I am a government official. My monthly income is about 1,000 yuan. I receive four-digit dividends at the end of each year. I receive 20 kilograms of flour and 30 kilograms of peanut oil every month. I don’t have a car yet. The rent of my house is subsidized by the government. The monthly rent pressure is very small. There is still room for advancement in my current job. My salary may increase by 50 to 60 percent in the next three years.]

[I wonder if there are too many ordinary men above. We are just discussing the topic of buying groceries, but why are you talking about the boss lady? Is she single or in a relationship? Does it have anything to do with you guys going to the store to buy things? If you really want to propose, please do it in practice instead of just talking nonsense here.]

[Hey, the girl above is a girl, right? She is just joking, why are you so angry? She is not talking about you, why are you so excited? ]

[What's going on downstairs is none of your business. I just can't stand you men making comments about girls. ]

[Alright, alright, stop arguing, let’s get back to the topic. Will the boss lady really come back to open the store? ]

[Well... I know the boss lady, and I've already sent her a message to confirm that we'll be able to resume business the day after tomorrow.]

[Thank God, God knows that everything I eat these days is tasteless. Is this because I complained about the price before eating, and only knew that it was "really delicious" after eating it? ]

After seeing the message in the group chat, Xu Hang let out a long sigh. He had been staying in the office for so long that he was about to get moldy. Before, everyone wanted to do field work, after all, field work brought commissions and bonuses. But after eating the lunch boxes prepared by the boss's wife, many of those who did field work wanted to stay in the office during this period. The reason was simple: they were afraid of not being able to get the lunch boxes. This was really ridiculous.

But now that the boss lady has closed the shop for a few days, those who applied to stay in the office can no longer stay idle. Without the blessing of boxed lunches, everyone is listless and lacks energy.

"I miss the lunch boxes downstairs so much..." Xiao Chen had a sad face as he sat cross-legged on the sofa and ate his breakfast. The steamed buns were made of flour and had a sour smell, and were paired with a can of very salty pickles in front of him. His expression while eating was like he was being tortured.

"Hey Xu Hang, are you sure you've asked the boss lady if she will be back the day after tomorrow?" Another buddy couldn't help but ask Xu Hang this question for the third time.

Xu Hang could only nod helplessly, sliding his finger across the mouse to see what treasures were available at the base's [Exchange Market].

Lao Bi was wiping his weapon and smiled helplessly: "I think everyone is going crazy. How can people who have tasted the best of the best drink still drink rotten water?"

It's no wonder that Lao Bi described it this way. Everyone feels nauseous when they think of the lunch boxes they bought recently. I don't know if it's because the merchants are reluctant to add oil and seasonings in order to control costs, or if the meat was not handled properly during the marinating process. The lunch boxes bought in recent times have a disgusting smell.

[It tastes like a fart in your mouth.]

This is the most accurate description of a buddy. You can imagine how much information this sentence alone brings.

In fact, it was not just the boxed lunches they bought. Yesterday, they went to the cafeteria of the big guild next door, the Red Flag Guild, and had lunch with an acquaintance. The food in the cafeteria of the Red Flag Guild, which has always been known for its good food, also had a strange smell.

"Hey, I saw a message just released by a base. It seems that due to seasonal reasons, the mutated pigs, cattle, sheep and other animals that have been farmed recently have more developed sweat glands than before because of changes in their body hormones. A substance is produced under the sebum. Studies have shown that this substance is harmless to the body, but it will affect the taste of meat. At present, after research and repeated experiments by experts from the research institute and the breeding center, it is recommended that the most suitable cooking methods are stewing and deep-frying with flour. Ordinary stewing will not remove the smell."

"Damn it, the meat I've been eating recently has a weird smell, and it's getting stronger and stronger. Last time I thought it was made from mutant rat meat. So this is the reason. If this is the case, are people allowed to continue eating meat?" Another buddy frowned and couldn't help cursing.

"Don't eat meat? What else can we eat if we don't eat meat? It's not good to just eat steamed buns and drink porridge every day. If we encounter a field mission, won't we be exhausted?" The man squatting in the front and fiddling with the sand pile model had a sarcastic tone in his tone.

Xu Hang frowned and was about to say something when suddenly a burst of hurried footsteps was heard outside the door.

"The third team is preparing to set off to the northern forest to provide support to the second team."

"Brother Dali, what happened? Why do we suddenly have to go to the northern forest for support? Wasn't the second team just sent out this morning?" Xiao Chen, who was originally chewing a steamed bun, stood up immediately with a look of surprise on his face.

Even Lao Bi hurriedly put his weapon on his waist and asked, "Did something happen to the second team?"

The man called Dali shook his head and said, "No, it's just that today's mission has temporarily become an A-level mission. It seems that we encountered a three-tailed fox. With the current strength of the second team, I'm afraid we can't take down the fox, so we have to hunt it down before other guilds find the three-tailed fox."

Xu Hang was also shocked when he heard this. "A three-tailed fox that is a Class A mutant beast with fire power? But aren't we in the south? The three-tailed fox should be in the north, right?"

The three-tailed fox is basically not seen in the south. It is known that this creature likes cold and stays in places dozens of degrees below zero all year round. The World Psychic Association first announced information about the three-tailed fox when it was discovered in the extremely cold Antarctic three years ago. In the ice and snow, the three-tailed fox's bright hair is like burning flames. When using its superpowers, it can burn the area within a range of dozens of meters. It is a mutant beast with very powerful superpower energy, but because of its scarcity, it has only existed in rumors. Even now, no organization has successfully captured a three-tailed fox.

When I first heard about this thing, I felt it was full of mythology, and it even reminded me of the story of King Zhou and Daji. But what is more shocking than the myth is that there is news from abroad that someone has seen a three-tailed fox evolve into a six-tailed fox, and its ability level has suddenly increased to S-level, so some people speculated. If a three-tailed fox can evolve into a six-tailed fox, then can this creature continue to evolve if certain conditions are met? For example, can it evolve into a nine-tailed fox?

If the three-tailed fox can really continue to evolve, and even evolve into a nine-tailed fox, then this creature may break the concept of the level of mutant beasts currently known. Perhaps there are mutant beasts that are superior to S-level, SS-level or even SSS-level mutant beasts in the world...

This kind of speculation has a huge impact on humans. After all, S-level mutant beasts like the mutant two-headed black mamba and the Saker Falcon require more than two psychics to be dispatched at the same time to kill them. If SS-level mutant beasts really exist, can humans still kill them easily?

However, humans are also continuing to evolve. There are rumors that SS-level psychics have appeared in the world, but the World Psychic Association has not given a definite answer to this statement, nor has it released any relevant information.

"What, a three-tailed fox? Is this true? When did this creature appear in the northern forest?" Xiao Chen almost choked on the steamed bun in his hand, but he quickly put on his outdoor sports shoes.

Several people in the office became anxious and panicked. Although they were still skeptical about the authenticity of the "three-tailed fox", they did not dare to delay in taking action. After all, Group Two had indeed encountered a thorny problem.

When the third group of the Far-Flying Guild set off, a military pickup truck was also dispatched from the Hunter Association headquarters, carrying assault teams composed of different guilds.
