Happiness System
Chapter 239: The End of the World Again 18
"Brother Yan, is your ability about to be upgraded?"
"Yeah, almost."
"I've only reached the intermediate level, and I feel like I'm still so far away from advancement." How boring!
Qi Jingyan was annoyed by the noise and turned over to cover him...
After that, he stroked Qin Xi's face and said, "Go to sleep. I'll take you out to relax tomorrow."
The next day, Qin Xi realized that the so-called relaxation was to go out and dig up the supplies hidden outside!
It was the first time that Qin Xi looked at the devastation of the land below so directly, and a feeling of sadness arose in his heart.
Qi Jingyan's supplies were stored in an air-raid shelter on a hill not far from the Imperial Forest Garden. Most of the high-rise buildings in the Imperial Garden collapsed, and the few remaining buildings that were still standing had become tilted and cracked unfinished houses.
The villa in the Imperial Garden was slightly better off, with less than one-third of it collapsed, and the rest was mostly fallen walls, doors and windows. In the worst case, the entire house was split into two halves.
"Brother Yan, look!"
Qin Xi pointed at the Imperial Forest Garden below, his breathing almost stagnant with fear.
“It shouldn’t be like this…”
Qi Jingyan saw the bottomless ravine that divided the entire community into two halves, as well as the strange atmosphere emanating from the community. Although it was a sunny day, it made people feel extremely eerie.
He estimated the location and found that their tunnel was very close to the ravine. A small section of it was even suspended in the ravine. If he had not insisted on using the best materials when building it...
Qi Jingyan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat!
And now it seems that something is wrong with the entire community. The official location of the base was only announced three days ago.
There are several large families living in the Royal Forest, but those families have not yet reported to the base.
Before the earthquake, tens of thousands of refugees poured into the community...
Today, the Imperial Forest Garden is deserted, like an isolated island that has been abandoned for more than half a year.
When it flew over the sky, they all felt a bad aura, a very dangerous feeling.
The hill where the supplies were stored was also in a mess at this time, and Liao You found a relatively flat place to land.
As soon as he landed, Qin Xi covered his nose and said, "The air here smells so bad, it has a sticky and fishy smell!"
"What's that smell?" The others sniffed and felt it was similar to other places.
Qin Xi touched the goose bumps in his hand, "Like a snake? And I feel like I'm being spied on."
Qi Jingyan held her hand and pointed to an approximate area. "Put away the helicopter, then choose a location to start digging. If anything goes wrong, we will evacuate."
He did not sense any dangerous aura for the time being, because there should be no one stronger than him nearby. He had a feeling that if he did not take the things here, he would never have another chance in the future, so he had to take the things away this time no matter what.
Qin Xi put a mint in his mouth to wake himself up, looked around carefully, and then put the excavator in a position.
Jing Yi and Jing Er quickly climbed onto the excavator and started operating it. It took them more than an hour to dig through to the air-raid shelter.
Jing San and Jing Si went down to investigate first, and then Qi Jingyan took Qin Xi down.
Liao You took Jing Yi and Jing Er to stay on the ground to provide support, while the others followed down to the air-raid shelter.
Qin Xi went down and started to collect the things with a bang.
It was strange that in this dimension, she had no side effects when collecting things.
"Next door are the Si family's supplies. They haven't even come to the base or shown their heads yet. Why don't we do something good?"
Qin Xi followed Qi Jingyan and saw him open a secret door. He thought there were supplies hidden inside, but he didn't expect that he would actually set his sights on the rival's house.
After entering that door, Qin Xi always felt a sense of oppression and panic, and there was a voice in her heart telling her to run.
Hearing Qi Jingyan asking the gold and earth elements to chisel the wall, Qin Xi immediately grabbed his hand and said, "Brother Yan, let's get out of here right now!"
Her voice was seven parts panic and three parts pleading. Qi Jingyan thought for a few seconds, then nodded and took them away quickly.
Liao You also guessed that Qi Jing's banquet was planning to steal Si's family's supplies, but he didn't expect them to come back so soon.
A helicopter happened to be approaching here, and when they heard the noise coming from the cave entrance, they immediately pulled the people below up.
"Mr. Qi?"
"Let's get out of here first!"
Qin Xi took a look at the helicopter and somehow gave up on this means of transportation, and instead took out five off-road motorcycles.
"Go this way!" She waved her hand and pointed in the opposite direction.
Qi Jingyan frowned and glanced at the helicopter in the sky. He turned his hand and the car drove out. The others did not hesitate and immediately followed in a protective formation.
As they left, a helicopter in the sky landed at their previous location.
Qi Jingyan sped all the way, almost reaching the maximum speed.
Qin Xi originally wanted to take out the safety helmet, but she was almost thrown off several times. She had to give up and hugged Qi Jingyan's waist tightly.
After running for more than ten kilometers in one breath, they slowed down.
Qin Xi turned his head and found that he could still see the hill over there, so he immediately took out a telescope.
"Snake, snake, a flying tiger? No, what the hell is this thing with a bull's head and a tiger's body?"
Shocked!
Qi Jingyan stopped the car and took Qin Xi's telescope, just in time to see Qiongqi slap the helicopter down with one claw, then lowered its head and rushed towards the two giant pythons, one black and one white, on the ground...
The waists of the black and white pythons were as thick as buckets. When they stood up to fight with Qiongqi, they were taller than the nearly meter-high trees next to them. With a sweep of their thick tails, several large trees were uprooted wherever they passed. In particular, there were wisps of black smoke coming out of their mouths, and any grass or trees that came into contact with the black smoke and venom would rot instantly!
The Qiongqi with an ox head and a tiger body is quite big, but it is extremely flexible. With its seemingly ordinary hooves and claws, it can kick a giant python dozens of meters away with one kick, and it can grab off several scales of the python and leave deep scars with one grab. With the bonus of its huge wings for flying, it can fight alone and is not inferior to two giant pythons at all!
"Brother Yan, am I seeing things right? That python has become a spirit, and it's actually shedding scales?"
Qin Xi noticed the gaze of Qiongqi sweeping over, and no longer cared to watch the fun and try to take advantage of the opportunity, and immediately reminded everyone to continue to run for their lives!
They drove for two hours and stopped only when the car ran out of gas.
Qin Xi's legs were shaking when she got out of the car. If Qi Jingyan hadn't helped her, she would have prostrated herself on the ground.
The worst part was her butt, which was almost broken into four pieces. Since her friends were all men, she didn't even have the courage to reach out and rub it.
"This road is even worse than the dirt roads in the countryside decades ago. It hurts my old waist!"
After looking around and not feeling any danger, Qin Xi released a modified container and said, "I can't run anymore. Let me rest for a while!"
The first thing she did when she ran into the small room was to rub her swollen little butt. She rested for nearly half an hour before going out to put out the food.
"Brother Yan, have you noticed that we haven't seen a single living person in such a long time?"
"Well, apart from the beast just now, there is no trace of other things. There are not even any zombies in this area."
Qin Xi shuddered, "Brother Yan, there won't be any big guys here, right?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible. "Then let's go back first. Before it gets dark, let's take a detour and take a helicopter back!"
Qi Jingyan pushed her onto the stool and said, "Finish your meal first! I don't feel any danger. A few minutes won't matter."
"All right!"
On the way back, they avoided the hill far away, and since Qi Jingyan wanted to observe the situation in other places, it took them twice as long to get back to the base.
Although the base still looks like a messy construction site, the main roads have been built.
Their helicopters could not enter the base, so they could only land outside the base and then change cars to go back.
When passing the outer ring road, they even went to take a look at the construction site.
Qi Jingyan also acquired several hundred square meters of land in the outer ring. That land was attached to the Qi family's land and both were very close to the inner city.
They divided the land into two halves, and the construction layout was similar, but one half was for their own people to live in, and the other half was for rent.
The land on the Qi family's side is much larger, so they built three buildings there. One is for subordinates and their families to live in, one is for rent and business, and the last one is for relatives and friends of the Qi family.
The framework of the houses in the inner ring has been built, and only the fine decoration remains. Now everyone's focus is on clearing the zombies and building the houses in the outer ring.
Speaking of the houses in the inner ring, there were some conflicts when they were first built.
It was mainly Aunt Qi who was causing the trouble.
The Qi family divided the 1,000-square-meter land in the inner ring into two parts. One part covers an area of 600 square meters and two villas, the main one and the secondary one, were built. The old man and the eldest son and grandson lived in the main building, and the secondary building was for the housekeeper and bodyguards to live in.
The remaining 400 square meters were divided equally between the second and third sons' families.
As for Qi Xiaogu, a married woman, she was only given a compact two-bedroom, one-living-room house of 50 square meters in the outer ring road.
Since she got much less than she expected, Qi Xiaogu naturally wanted to make a fuss.
But things are different now. In the past, the Qi family was not short of money. In order to save some trouble, the old man and Qi Lianye naturally didn't mind giving her a little something.
Nowadays, every inch of land is valuable and everything is hard-earned, so those who are in charge will naturally have many considerations.
Besides, Miss Qi is married. Even if her son Qi Jingzheng has the surname Qi, he will take her surname Qi instead of the Qi family's.
Qi Jingzheng's name sounds like that of Qi Jingting and the others, and they seem to be brothers, but it was also chosen by Aunt Qi privately. She thought that as long as she recorded it in the household registration book, the Qi family would have no choice.
But the Qi family really doesn't care. It is their freedom to name their child whatever they want, and what is registered is their own household registration book, not the Qi family's genealogy.
Whether he was called Qi Jingzheng, or took Qi Xiaogu's husband's surname Mo and called Mo Zhu or Mo Gou, they were just code names for the Qi family.
Ever since Xiaogu Qi broke off the engagement with her ex-fiance's family and married a man named Mo for love, she had been abandoned by the Qi family.
The few remaining feelings between father and daughter and brother and sister are enough for her to maintain a decent life in the second half of her life. Don't fantasize too much about other things.
But perhaps it is only limited to before the end of the world.
A wealthy family like theirs is the most respectable than anyone else, and also the most ruthless than anyone else.
