Chapter 4: Preparations Before the End (Part II)

From the 13th to the 15th, it is said that there are three days, but now there are only a few hours left on the 13th, and the virus outbreak is after 12 o'clock in the evening on the 14th, so strictly speaking, Lou Lan is actually only more than 1 day.

1 day, it can almost be said that it is a race against time, fortunately tomorrow is Sunday, there is no need to go to class, Lou Lan is still a little fortunate about this.

But compared to time, she had just discovered another major problem. She pulled out the long list she had just listed. 10W yuan, used to buy things on the list, it still seems a little insufficient.

The gasoline and small cars in it alone are worth about 5W yuan.

It seems that the part that is not enough can only be completed after she gets that ability, Lou Lan rubbed the corners of her forehead with a headache.

……

A dreamless night.

The alarm clock on the mobile phone rang on time, 6 o'clock.

In the middle of summer, the sky is bright very early, and if it is under normal circumstances, then the sky outside should be bright at this time.

But when I opened the curtains, I saw that it was still completely dark, without a trace of light, and the dark clouds were heavy overhead, and the whole city was lit only by street lamps beside the streets.

It's obviously such an obvious abnormality, she didn't feel strange at all in her previous life, her previous self was so naïve. Lou Lan laughed at herself, then went to wash, and prepared Amber's cat food for a day, and then went out with a huge hiking bag.

I don't know what is stuffed in the mountaineering bag, it is flat, but the length is half a person high, and the mountaineering bag is completely propped up.

I looked at my watch, it was only around 7 o'clock, and the banks and the big shopping malls were definitely not open yet. But Lou Lan seemed to be prepared, and rode a bicycle instead of going to the commercial street, but went straight to a remote road.

There are very few cars and pedestrians on the road, everything seems very calm, just because of the gloomy weather, there are many fewer people walking dogs and exercising in the morning from time to time on the road in the past, but there are still people who go out to exercise, these people talk harmoniously while exercising, and it seems that it is a beautiful microcosm of this society.

It's a pity that all this will come into naught after the end times, in such a world where humanity is degraded......

Lou Lan sighed and stepped up her ride.

After another half hour, she finally stopped, and it seemed that she had reached her destination—a rundown-looking street.

H City is one of the top cities in the country, and most of the cities are full of bustling buildings and rows of roads, so dilapidated streets are almost impossible to see.

Most of the shops on this street have closed down, and even the iron locks on the doors have rusted, but in such an "abandoned" environment, there is a small shop standing strongly.

There is also a plaque hanging on the eaves of the small shop, on which are written four crooked characters - Lufeng Iron Shop.

Lou Lan parked her bicycle in front of the store, didn't lock it, and walked in straight with her bag on her back.

"Grandpa Lu, you're not there." Although it is a question, but it is a declarative sentence, Lou Lan seems to have affirmed that "Grandpa Lu" must be in this store.

As soon as her words fell, an old voice sounded from far and near: "Ahem, what to shout, every time I know that my old man must be there, I still want to pretend to shout." ”

This was said very politely, but Lou Lan showed no signs of anger at all, still standing calmly in place, and even said with a smile: "Mother told me to do this." ”

At this time, a small door opened in the corner of the room, and an old man with a gray beard walked out from behind the door, and he said as he walked: "Hmph, don't talk about your mother, look at the words she wrote to my shop, if it weren't for these words, how could this shop's business be so bad." ”

"Ahem." Lou Lan was speechless, although her mother was a beautiful and rich lady before her death, she had no involvement in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., but she liked to show off her literary talents, and this old man's blacksmith shop was one of her victims.

Lou Lan's silence was golden, but the old man was unrelenting, and said: "Hmph, if you have nothing to say, let's say something, no matter what time you came, you learned it from your wolf-hearted father." ”

"Something is true." Lou Lan first affirmed the old man's statement very bluntly, and then the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and said with a smile: "But I didn't go to my father to learn, I don't have a father anymore." ”

Old man Lu glanced at her with some surprise, saw the smile on the corner of Lou Lan's mouth, frowned, and said, "If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh, you're only a teenager, and you're just like a little old man." ”

"No, there will be no more, that kind of scum father really has no need to have it, look at the stupid way you used to be, now you know that you are far away from the scum, and your mother should be blind if she has knowledge."

For Father Lou, Old Man Lu looked down on him from the beginning, so he had said similar things more than once. Lou Lan has also heard it more than once, in her previous life, she was a perfunctory thing with a hippie smile, so later the old man Lu said less, and after the end came, he left H City in a hurry with his "father", so he never heard such words again.

But today, Lou Lan restrained her smile, nodded, and said: "I was ignorant before, so you were always worried, and I will be careful in the future and know how to take care of myself." ”

It seemed that he didn't expect Lou Lan to say this, the old man Lu was a little stunned for a while, and then said with an embarrassed expression: "My old man doesn't have time to care about you, tell me what's the matter, get out of here after speaking, I have a lot of things to do, old man." ”

This attitude is very arrogant, if Lou Lan, who was ignorant in his "previous life", came, the atmosphere would inevitably be a little embarrassing at this time, but Lou Lan, who had experienced the end of the world, betrayal, and death, had already "precipitated".

She smiled indifferently, she didn't care about the attitude of the old man Lu at all, and directly took off the mountaineering bag on her back, and then took out one of them and handed it to the old man Lu, and said respectfully: "Grandpa Lu, this is left by my mother, it is said to be the heirloom of the Bai family, I want you to see if you can open the blade." ”

Old man Lu took the long wooden stick shaped thing wrapped in layers of white cloth, and didn't speak, but first glanced at Lou Lan with strange eyes.

Lou Lan calmly looked at him, he was strong, and the breeze blew on the hills.

"Ahem, this thing and that girl are still left for you." Old man Lu coughed, but muttered as he removed the white cloth from the outside of the thing.

With the removal of the white cloth, the appearance of this thing was finally revealed, it was a half-human long sword.
