On the other side, after a period of trekking, the merchant finally came to the center of the city, but the desolate scene made her feel that they had not moved at all for two days, and they were still in the same city.

"What's next?" Meng Ying asked.

"Since you're here, you can only accept this reality, let's find a place to rest first......" Shang Shi said.

"I'm a little hungry, let's find something to eat first!" Meng Ying proposed.

After all, he hadn't eaten for a day, and the merchant was feeling a little hungry.

Wild boars are not cheetahs, and they can remain productive without eating for a while.

But the problem is that just as the merchant had feared, the food in the nearby convenience store has long been inedible, and the drinking water is fine.

After drinking a bottle of mineral water in one go, the merchant looked at the strange city with a frown, thinking about how to solve the most basic survival requirements.

"I'm hungry......" Meng Ying said bitterly, clutching her stomach. Because they didn't bring food with them in a hurry, and they didn't replenish it halfway due to various emergencies, Meng Ying and the merchant had not eaten for more than two days now.

"Peace of mind, sister, I'll find something to eat soon, peace of mind!" The merchant kept comforting.

Even if he doesn't have a bottom in his heart, he still looks confident on the surface, in order to reassure the girls around him.

"No matter how much she has been nurtured by a wealthy family, no matter how much she has a mature mind beyond her peers, she is still only a fifteen-year-old girl...... "Shang Shi thought to himself, his sister is not a special person like himself after all.

"Sister, you hide here for a while, no one should find out, even if you find out that with your ability, even if you come, you can drag me back, as long as someone comes, no matter who it is, you must notify me as soon as possible!"

As he spoke, the merchant handed over the mobile phone card and mini mobile phone he found from a nearby communication operator to Meng Ying, which is also the only communication tool now, which should be a mobile phone card that directly opens satellite communication services.

"Yes!" Meng Ying nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of myself!" ”

The merchant smiled, then resolutely turned around and left the hiding place the two had just found.

Walking out of an old gate that is not rusty, the scorching afternoon sun still shines on people's bodies like every summer, making people feel hot and hot.

But the current merchant didn't care about the sun at all, and his sharp eyes constantly scanned the desolate streets around him, shuttling between empty shops and residences at an incredible speed.

'Where...... Where the hell ......! As he hurried along, the merchant shouted anxiously in his heart, "After such a long period of precipitation, there must have been a group of survivors who have begun to realize their situation and have begun to seek an organized way to save themselves because of their own lack of strength......

The simplest, and at the same time, the easiest way to think of is to find a group of ordinary survivors like yourself, and form an organization like the new society, forming a self-sufficient social system. ’

This method, also known as the 'gathering point', was seen in many post-apocalyptic novels in Shang Shi's previous life, and it is also one of the most feasible methods that Shang Shi believes is at this stage.

"But where the hell are these guys hiding?!" The merchant unconsciously shouted loudly, the empty environment, and for some reason the zombies that suddenly became even fewer than outside the city, made her unconsciously let her guard down.

"Handsome little guy over there, what are you looking for?" A deep voice suddenly sounded behind the merchant.

Hearing this, the merchant suddenly stopped, and while turning around in an instant, he didn't forget to take a few steps back and make a battle defense posture.

"Who is it?! Don't be sneaky, come out! The merchant's body changed at a speed visible to the naked eye, full of wild cat-eyed beast eyes, with a fierce gaze like a jungle beast, staring closely at the empty street he had just passed.

"Don't be so nervous, our compatriots ......"

At this time, the merchant finally heard the voice of the person who came, it was a woman's voice, although it was more of a neutral hoarse voice, but with the sensitive hearing of the merchant at this time, he could still distinguish the gender of the voice owner at the first time, and even the age.

The age of the person who came was not very old, at least in the eyes of the business teacher, it was the timbre of a recent college graduate.

"Compatriots?" The merchant sneered and said, "I don't want to be confused with people who don't even dare to show their faces, and the guys who hide their heads and tails are usually not good people." ”

"This is a prejudice ......that is not very pleasant," the person said quietly, "We are just to better protect ourselves, when facing strangers, it is better not to expose ourselves too much, this is also the advice I give you as a senior, little friend......"

Still, she spoke as she stepped out from behind the shelves of a small, nondescript shop.

"Hmph......" The merchant sneered again, and did not say anything about the visitor's words, but just looked at her carefully.

This is a young woman with short hair, and in the same way as the merchant judges, this is a woman dressed neutrally. Some whitish jeans, as well as gray camisoles, are more practical attire, and are usually not the first choice for beauty-loving women.

It's just that the plump twin peaks and pretty face still instantly showed her gender to the merchant.

With a healthy wheat complexion and a toned body, he is obviously a perennial exerciser.

"And dare to come to contact strangers alone, obviously very confident in their own combat effectiveness, even if they see me like this, I don't know if I am really powerful, or just simple arrogance and ignorance...... Shang Shi commented in his heart.

Of course, the other bigger reason for this assessment is actually the two pistols hanging from either side of her belt. Because of the holster, the merchant didn't see what model it was, but at least it looked quite difficult to deal with.

"I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet......" The short-haired woman looked at the merchant who was still on guard, smiled indifferently and said, "My name is Luo Yuan, and I am the guide in the area around here......"

"Guide?" For this word with multiple meanings, the merchant said that he could not understand its meaning at this moment.

"I think you're looking for a nearby base...... but the woman named Luo Yuan didn't seem to mean to answer, but said something else in a very positive tone.

"That's right." Although dissatisfied with her attitude of not answering herself, the merchant who was not familiar with the place here still answered truthfully.

Finally found it!
