Plane Supermarket
Chapter 5
The scorching sun was in the sky, and the earth seemed to be covered in a pale white. Even if there was a forest beside him, he still couldn't feel a trace of coolness. It seemed that a fire was burning in front of him, and the air was distorted.
The once fertile land has now become sand that can be scattered at a glance.
Wu Yan leaned against the tree trunk, his lips were black and cracked, he chewed a piece of dry grass slowly, and looked into the distance with numb eyes.
The woman sat next to him with her half-grown child in her arms, but she didn't say a word, like three people carved out of wood.
In order to save energy, they have not spoken for a long time.
I even forgot how to speak.
Cao'er Niang quietly walked to them, and the family's eyes turned to her stiffly.
She turned a blind eye and just leaned over and whispered in the man's ear.
Wu Yan, who was originally dull-eyed, suddenly brightened his eyes. He opened his mouth in disbelief, but he could only make a hoarse "ah" sound when he opened and closed his lips several times.
In order to save energy, Wu Yan didn't speak for a long time, and suddenly opened his mouth, forgetting what to say.
Cao'erniang emphasized again in a low voice: "Follow me into the woods at dusk tonight."
After seeing Wu Yan nodding, Cao Erniang hid behind the tree, and waited for a moment before walking towards another family under the cover of the tree trunk.
The mother and daughter acted separately, didn't waste any words, and didn't bring out any food, but even if it was just empty words, these people couldn't help but believe it.
Ye Zhou, who had been hiding in the woods, was relieved when he saw that Cao'er and her daughter stopped moving and sat together waiting for dusk to come.
He tried his best not to let himself look at the other refugees. If he took one more look, sympathy would quickly take over the high ground. If he looked a few more times, his reason would be overwhelmed.
Time passed slowly, every minute and every second seemed to be stretched infinitely.
Ye Zhou drank half a bottle of water all afternoon, but he was still extremely thirsty, and his lips were so dry that they were about to crack.
Refugees can live up to now in the absence of water and food. It is really not tenacious to describe it.
The sky was getting darker, and the temperature seemed to drop a few degrees, but those degrees were not obvious, and the wind blowing from the woods was hot.
The wind blows, the hotter it seems.
Slowly, someone wobbled towards the woods.
The other refugees did not give them a glance.
Cao'er and Cao'erniang led the way ahead, and Ye Zhou finally saw the employees who were going to work in the supermarket up close.
They also saw Ye Zhou.
Ye Zhou kept a cold face, trying to put on the cold appearance of an outsider. He didn't speak to the refugees, but nodded slightly to Caoerniang, then turned around and walked deep into the woods.
A group of refugees were left in a panic, and the refugees looked at Caoerniang as if they were asking for help.
Wu Yan's voice was hoarse, and he had to stop to take a break after speaking a few words: "Immortal... Didn't you like me?"
Cao'er answered, "The Immortal didn't drive you away, so he fell in love with him!"
Cao Erniang glared at her, stretched out her hand to pinch her arm, then turned to the refugees and said, "The Immortal is merciful, but it's not your mother and I. Why do you need the Immortal to greet you?"
A group of people shook their heads again and again.
This group consisted of eight adult men, six elderly people, four women, six children aged five to ten, and a baby.
They supported each other and walked forward with difficulty.
Although it was already night, it was necessary to walk a long way to rest anyway.
It was completely dark, and the refugees stopped in place at the moment of darkness. At dusk, they could not see very clearly, and they all moved forward by supporting each other. Now they are completely "blind", even No one around can see.
At this moment, a white light suddenly lit up not far away.
Like a long-lasting lightning bolt.
Someone let out a brief scream, and Cao Erniang immediately shouted: "This is a fairy trick! Don't make trouble!"
The refugees looked ahead in fear.
That light was not fire, and it illuminated this area almost like daytime.
The power of the glare flashlight is not comparable to that of ordinary flashlights. It is also the first time for Ye Zhou to use it, and he was taken aback when he turned it on. If it wasn't for the fact that the sky was still dark, it would be no different from daytime.
He opened the way ahead, and Cao'er, mother and daughter and the refugees walked slowly behind.
After walking for two or three hours, Ye Zhou stopped.
He turned around and waved to Caoerniang who was walking in front of the refugees.
Ye Zhou felt that Cao'er's mother was older and more knowledgeable, so she was more reliable than Cao'er, a young girl.
Cao Erniang ran over with a wink.
"Master Immortal, please order." Cao Erniang lowered her head, although she was thin, she spoke sharply and energetically.
Ye Zhou said in a low voice, "Just rest here, you share things with them, the family can only share a bottle of water and a bag of biscuits."
Cao Erniang took the backpack from her hand: "I can save it."
Ye Zhou nodded and watched her walk over.
On the way back, Ye Zhou prepared to stay away from the crowd.
Only in this way can he maintain the identity image he set for himself.
"Sit down first." Cao'er Niang returned to the crowd, she turned her head and told Cao'er, "Go and gather some firewood to start a fire, and build a pile of stones so as not to burn the grass next to you."
Cao'er responded.
She is used to listening to her mother. When her father was around, she always listened to her mother's orders on big and small matters in the family.
Now that my father is gone, I have to listen to my mother even more.
Cao Erniang asked the refugees to sit down, took out the mineral water from the backpack, and gave it to the men of each family to see how they planned to divide it.
Several men were holding water bottles. They looked at the transparent bottle with a circle of blue "paper" in the middle in amazement.
It is not the straw paper they usually use, nor is it the rice paper used by the landlords. It is smooth to the touch, but it is not oiled paper.
This is not paper that can be found in the world.
Cao Erniang took his bottle of water from the sluggish Wu Yan, unscrewed the cap in front of everyone, and handed it back: "See? This is how the fairy water is opened."
She tore open the packaging bag of compressed biscuits again: "This stuff is full of stomachs, one slice is enough for each person."
Wu Yan took a piece of biscuit that Cao'erniang handed him, and immediately stuffed it into his mouth. He didn't seem to find it dry, so he chewed it and swallowed it without even tasting any taste.
But it feels so good to have food in your mouth.
Wu Yan closed his eyes, and the moment the food entered his mouth, tears secreted from his eyes, but there were too few tears, even though he closed his eyes, they did not fall.
The woman bit off a piece of biscuit, chewed it carefully and fed it to the child in her arms.
The child was soothed, and slowly fell asleep after eating some.
Surrounded by the fire, the refugees leaned on each other, and the fire light danced gently. The elderly and children fell asleep quickly. A little food was enough to soothe their bodies and spirits, and let them fall asleep in exhaustion.
The young men and women did not sleep.
"I'll keep watch." Wu Yan ate the last biscuit. Although he only ate two, he felt that he was already full.
The other man coughed, took a sip of water cherishingly and said, "I'll come when you're tired."
The men quickly assigned the order of the vigil.
But they still didn't sleep, but looked not far away involuntarily.
There was also a small fire burning not far away.
You don't need to think about it to know that the "person" sitting by the fire is a fairy.
Cao'er Niang was also sitting with the refugees. She stirred the fire and found that people were looking at the fire not far away and whispered: "Master Immortal has great supernatural powers. He knows everything. Don't worry about it." I'm thinking about it, I'm doing it for your own good."
Cao'er also echoed: "The Immortal knows what we are thinking!"
Ever since the immortal asked her to eat when she just felt hungry, she believed that the immortal knew everything.
Seeing that Mother didn't stop her from continuing, Cao'er excitedly said, "Master Immortal can conjure anything! He can turn a boulder into a house with a breath of immortal air, and a fairy lamp can be made with a touch of his hand. "
The refugees are all illiterate without any education, and their eyes are getting brighter and brighter as they listen to Cao'er.
A woman asked in a low voice: "Is the immortal going to take us to practice?"
Who doesn't want to stay young forever, never grow old or die?
Cao'erniang's expression changed, she let out a "bah" and scolded: "You deserve it too?!"
The woman was startled, she shrank behind her man, her man didn't dare to face Cao'erniang, even though he didn't move, he only dared to look down at the fire.
Cao Erniang sneered, "What are we? Don't take yourself too seriously!"
"The immortal saved our lives. That is the mercy of the immortal. Practice? The emperor has not yet become an immortal, so it's our turn?"
"Let me tell you, if any of you dare to do something to make the immortal angry and implicate me, then let's not think about it!"
The refugees immediately said: "Don't dare, never dare."
Only then did Caoerniang snort coldly, and stopped talking.
Although she knows that the immortal is merciful and willing to save people, she is also sure that the immortal must not be a temperless immortal.
From childhood to adulthood, the gods in the storyteller's mouth are full of divine nature. Love makes them live, and hate makes them want to die.
Raising one's hand can save common people, and lowering one's hand can kill ten thousand people.
When the immortal is angry, it will attract huge waves, flooding the mountains, rivers and farmland.
It will also cause floods to break down embankments and destroy residential buildings.
Cao'erniang thought that Master Xianren must be such a fairy.
She just wanted to please him, and didn't want to offend him.
Of course, he was also afraid that others would offend him. These people in front of him were all people like her. If these people offended the immortal, they would definitely implicate her.
Ye Zhou, who was sitting by the fire, was eating, and he ate compressed biscuits himself.
Compressed biscuits are doing very well now, not only come in a variety of flavors, but they are not as dry as they used to be.
I knew I would bring some peach cakes out.
Ye Zhou took a sip of water.
With so many people, there is no room for the staff dormitory to sleep. It is estimated that they can only go to the warehouse to sleep.
Fortunately, there are no goods in the warehouse now, enough for so many people to sleep in it, and there is still a lot of space left.
Moreover, the warehouse also has central air conditioning and windows, so it will not be stuffy.
Leaning against the tree trunk, Ye Zhou looked up at the night sky. There was no industrial pollution, and the stars in the night sky were not blocked by clouds, but Ye Zhou didn't feel beautiful at all.
Originally, at this time, the supermarket should be in bustling business.
He will serve as a guest waiter, serve customers with a smile on his face, and be happy and proud of being able to make money while he is tired.
The supermarket that worked so hard to open owed such a large loan, but it ended up being brought here before it even opened.
When I got here, I still tried to play tricks, and there was still a lot of trouble to deal with.
I don't know what my parents are doing now, the flow of time in my world is different from that here.
He didn't know when he fell asleep.
But it seems that he has not been asleep, and a little movement can wake him up.
When the sun came up, he was instantly awake.
·
When he came here, he and Cao'er mother and daughter walked for five days, but it only took three days to go back.
It may be because he didn't use a flashlight before, but he used a flashlight on the way back.
When he went out, he couldn't be sure if there was anyone outside, but on the way back he could be sure that there was no one in the depths of the woods.
Although they were on their way, the condition of the "employees" was much better than when they were sitting outside the woods.
When they arrived at the supermarket, it was also the first time Ye Zhou appeared in front of them at close range.
When he was on the road before, he kept a distance from the refugees and walked ahead alone.
Ye Zhou breathed a sigh of relief when he walked to the entrance of the supermarket. When he turned around, he was startled by the scene in front of him.
—Although it wasn't the first time he was frightened.
Everyone knelt before him.
The foreheads of this group of ragged people were pressed against the ground, and their bodies fell to the ground as if they were kneeling down to a god or Buddha. Their shoulder blades seemed to break through the ragged clothes, which made people worry.
Although he didn't come here on his own initiative, nor did he take the initiative to save people.
But he probably... still did something good, right?
The once fertile land has now become sand that can be scattered at a glance.
Wu Yan leaned against the tree trunk, his lips were black and cracked, he chewed a piece of dry grass slowly, and looked into the distance with numb eyes.
The woman sat next to him with her half-grown child in her arms, but she didn't say a word, like three people carved out of wood.
In order to save energy, they have not spoken for a long time.
I even forgot how to speak.
Cao'er Niang quietly walked to them, and the family's eyes turned to her stiffly.
She turned a blind eye and just leaned over and whispered in the man's ear.
Wu Yan, who was originally dull-eyed, suddenly brightened his eyes. He opened his mouth in disbelief, but he could only make a hoarse "ah" sound when he opened and closed his lips several times.

Cao'er responded.
She is used to listening to her mother. When her father was around, she always listened to her mother's orders on big and small matters in the family.

The refugees are all illiterate without any education, and their eyes are getting brighter and brighter as they listen to Cao'er.
A woman asked in a low voice: "Is the immortal going to take us to practice?"
Who doesn't want to stay young forever, never grow old or die?
Cao'erniang's expression changed, she let out a "bah" and scolded: "You deserve it too?!"
The woman was startled, she shrank behind her man, her man didn't dare to face Cao'erniang, even though he didn't move, he only dared to look down at the fire.
Cao Erniang sneered, "What are we? Don't take yourself too seriously!"
"The immortal saved our lives. That is the mercy of the immortal. Practice? The emperor has not yet become an immortal, so it's our turn?"
"Let me tell you, if any of you dare to do something to make the immortal angry and implicate me, then let's not think about it!"
