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

Gu Tongwan and his group returned home on the 18th day of the lunar year, which was exactly the third day after the Lantern Festival. Thinking back on the more than ten days they had spent in the wanderer base camp was like a dream. It felt like everything was unreal. They had experienced so many life and death disasters during their trip.

Gu Tongwan and Chen Yanxi were in the same car. They were driving the same jeep that Liu Hun and his team had driven before they arrived. There were three other cars following behind them, carrying Xiaoli, Yan Fan, and the entire hunting team.

The two dogs did not need to squeeze in the car. Firstly, they were huge in size, and once the two dogs got in, basically no one else could sit. Secondly, after this battle, their abilities seemed to have improved a lot, and they should be able to make an easy return journey of more than 100 kilometers, and they could treat it as a long-distance training.

And this time there was a "newcomer" with them, Song Bo also went back to the base with them.

The other members of the hunting team had no objection to the addition of this new member. Only Liu Hun and Fang Tang expressed their desire to give the new member a try and "train" him well after returning.

Song Bo was still smiling, but it was no longer a smile that didn't reach his eyes, but a sincere smile. Perhaps after joining the team, he would feel a little more sense of belonging.

This time because the hunting team was also there, the cars did not have to worry about being ambushed on the road. This was also why several people deliberately gave up one of the cars for Gu Tongwan and Chen Yanxi to be alone.

After all, young couples need some private space to be alone. Otherwise, if they follow the main group all day long, they may have to find a place to be intimate when they want to. This is so wrong.

Gu Tongwan and Chen Yanxi had long been accustomed to the teasing and playful looks from others, and they also felt that they had indeed spent less time alone with Chen Yanxi. Before, he was either busy carrying out missions or she was busy doing other things. It seemed that it was really rare for the two of them to be together doing the same thing like these days.

Thinking about how Cai Xing kept thanking Liu Hun last night after getting drunk, and even almost burst into tears, and mentioned that something bad had happened because he almost didn't make it home in time, the young man couldn't hold back his emotions for many days, and coupled with the alcohol, he actually cried uncontrollably in front of everyone.

In fact, who would have thought that at the beginning of the apocalypse, Cai Xing was just a big boy who had just been admitted to university and was forced to enter the apocalypse to fight wits and courage with mutant beasts and sinister people before he could enjoy his freshman life.

"Thank you, Cai Xing, for joining the guard team."

If Cai Xing can join the guard team, it will be much easier for the Cai family to enter the base and become permanent residents in the future. After all, the guard team can enjoy various benefits and rights in the base.

Apart from anything else, at least the "contribution value" that the Cai family needs to pay can be reduced by at least half.

"In fact, with Cai Xing's level, he is fully capable of doing the work of the guard team. Besides, I only asked Liu Hun to provide a channel for the exam, not to directly open a back door for him." Although Chen Yanxi was looking forward, his peripheral vision saw the smile on the corner of her mouth through the rearview mirror in front of her, so the light in her eyes softened a little.

"No matter what, thank you." Gu Tongwan thanked sincerely with a smile.

"What are your plans after you return?" Chen Yanxi tapped the steering wheel with his left fingers, and his tone gradually became a little careless, as if testing him.

Gu Tongwan was originally looking down at his phone. He looked up when he heard what he said. After thinking for a while, he said, "I plan to buy another house in the underground city and open a guesthouse."

This idea actually existed before, but it was put on the agenda ahead of time after what happened at the Wanderer Base Camp.

"Guesthouse? Why do you have such an idea?" Although Chen Yanxi was a little surprised, his face remained calm.

"The future of the underground city world is the general trend. I believe that the underground city will definitely become the second place for human survival. Since netizens may have to stay in the base for the rest of their lives, why not find a way to seize the opportunity and buy a house in the underground city while they can still afford it? Why not find a way to become a landlady?"

"So have you saved enough money now?" Chen Yanxi couldn't help but smile when he saw her smile.

"No, I'm still working hard. But to be honest, after going through all this, I feel a little sleepy when I relax all of a sudden."

After saying that, she yawned very long and slumped down on the passenger seat in a very relaxed posture, her slightly closed eyes like a tired Persian cat, lazy and wanton.

Seeing her so comfortable, Chen Yanxi couldn't help but raise a hand and gently brush the loose hair on her forehead to her ears.

Front of van

Liu Hun made a circle with his hands and placed them above his eye sockets, and opened his eyes wide as hard as he could to see through the front windshield to the jeep in front.

Ye Ziqiu, who was behind him, slapped Liu Hun on the head.

"I said you are sick, what are you looking at?"

Liu Hun tutted his lips, then raised his eyebrows with a smug look on his face, "You don't know this, right? When have you ever seen the boss in a relationship? Aren't you curious about what the boss is like in private?"

Xu Qingzhi, who was driving, couldn't help but whispered, "I am quite curious, but we are not as brave as you, Brother Liu."

Liao Yunyun, who was sitting in the back row, said with a smile, "I also want to know how Chen Yanxi is in love, but... that's the interest of the young couple, so let's not be curious. If we want to be curious, go and find someone ourselves."

Liu Hun immediately shrugged: "Forget it, I've been hurt before, and I'm not in the mood for a relationship right now."

"Then your recovery period will be really long. I said the same thing when I met you. It's been almost five years now. Aren't you suffering from post-traumatic stress?" Ye Ziqiu sneered, then lowered his head to scroll through his phone, but his eyes were on Song Bo, who was standing next to Liao Yunyun in the last row, the new member who would join their team in the future.

When the boss told them that there were new members joining, they were indeed quite surprised. After all, the team had been established for five years, and Xuyang, the latest to join, had been there for two years. During these two years, everyone in the Hunter Team had become familiar with each other. From the team members' habits to their interests and hobbies to the rhythm and style of operations, it had taken several years for everyone to get used to each other and to have perfect cooperation. Joining new members at this time would inevitably disrupt the team's rhythm of operations.

However, after Song Bo revealed his true supernatural strength, everyone understood why Song Bo had to join.

Song Bo's transformation ability did play a key role in the early stages of the mission.

Although Song Bo seemed to be very outgoing, when they really got to know each other closely, Ye Ziqiu could feel his inherent coldness, because she subconsciously disliked this person.

But since we are just teammates, it doesn’t matter if they like each other. What matters most is whether you can give your life to each other.

The latter point is just like the similarly reckless Liu Hun who took nearly two and a half years to gain Ye Ziqiu's full trust.

However, since he is the person chosen by the captain, Ye Ziqiu will naturally give him a certain degree of trust. As for how much he will trust him, it depends on how they get along in the future.

The car took nearly five hours to finally arrive at the base. Looking at the familiar bed, Liao Yunyun couldn't help but sigh: "Finally I'm home. I miss my bed at home. I haven't slept in it for almost two weeks. Now I just want to take a shower and lie down on it."

Seeing Liao Yunyun's expression, Ye Ziqiu couldn't help but joked, "Reporter Liao, remember to turn on the heating or light the stove when you get home. Otherwise, if you want to go to bed right away in this weather, your bed will be as cold as an ice cave."

These words seemed to wake up Liao Yunyun. During this period of time at Cai's house, she basically ignored the heater all day and almost forgot that there had been no charcoal burning at home for a long time. She even took a shower and was lucky not to be freezing cold after taking off her clothes.

"Reporter Liao, don't worry too much. The temperature today is minus 31 degrees Celsius, which is two degrees higher than yesterday." Liu Hun did not forget to tease.

Liao Yunyun sighed and leaned back in her chair. "Forget it. My vacation will be over the next day. Why do I feel so exhausted after this trip?"

Complaints aside, Liao Yunyun was in a good mood and quickly consoled herself: "But the most important thing is that everyone can come back safely."

The roads in the base city area were suddenly open and much more spacious and brighter than those in the wanderer base camp. Even during the day, there were many people walking on the road.

This was Song Bo's first time entering the Jiangcheng base. When he was a free hunter in other cities, he had used someone else's face to sneak into the third base.

However, the construction of the third base is not as good as the first base today. It is worthy of being a large-scale base second only to Kyoto. The infrastructure and urban construction facilities here are gradually returning to the level before the end of the world. There are even many seven- or eight-story buildings that are rare in other camps outside.

When they reached the center of the city, the others separated, and Chen Yanxi naturally took the same path as Gu Tongwan.

Liu Hun was very excited in the car behind him, laughing and saying, "Hey, has the boss finally figured it out? He finally knows how to get the upper hand?"

"If you don't know idioms, don't say them, so as not to embarrass yourself." Ye Ziqiu shook his head with a look of disgust.

----

The two dogs were even more excited than their owner when they returned home. Just as they were about to step into the house, Gu Tongwan gave an order and they immediately lay down obediently in the yard.

Tutu arched his body and walked to a place where there was snow. He began to dig the snow with his claws gracefully, and soon the remaining mud on his claws was cleared.

Aoao followed suit and started cleaning himself.

Chen Yanxi knew that the IQ of her two dogs was far superior to that of ordinary mutant beasts, but she didn't expect that their ability to read people's expressions could almost catch up with that of humans.
