Chapter 42: Winning the lottery
The sound of surprise shocked the entire shopping mall, and then everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, it was only the ninth prize, what was it. Maybe it's a towel or a paper drawer!
The woman staggered to the center of the hall, Zheng Yifan could see that there was a whole scar on her thigh, as if a whole piece of flesh on her buttocks had been cut off, and she gritted her teeth and moved slowly as she walked. In his arms, he held a small rice bag tightly.
Zheng Yifan remembered that she took some scattered and broken mourning crystals to sell to buy rice, and the mourning crystals were rubbed like gems, shining with dazzling light.
The mourning crystals that are usually just plucked from the back of the zombie's neck are definitely not so shiny, and the only possibility is that this woman doesn't know how many times she has wiped these mourning crystals to make it shine.
"Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless!" The woman trembled and scraped the coating with a spatula.
The first thing that appeared in front of him was the word rice.
When she saw these two words, she was relieved, whether it was 1 catty or 2 catties, at least the possibility of her man recovering would increase a little, even if there was only a little hope, it was like a wildfire spreading in her heart.
If I survive today, I may be able to survive for a few more days.
The woman gradually scraped off the coating on the back.
50 pounds of rice.
Simple words, different moods, and 50 catties of rice are enough to save a life in this last days.
The woman collapsed on the ground with teary eyes, and finally couldn't help crying. A small shopping cart was pushed next to her, and a bag of rice was dropped.
A full fifty catties, a grain of abundant rice in a transparent bag represents not just a little ration, but hope, the hope of living.
"Thank you! Thank you, boss, thank you, thank you, thank you for the great compassion of Avalokiteshvara. The woman continued to sob, holding the grain bag.
The crowd waiting for shopping silently wept in their hearts, they were all similar to this woman, except that there were no injuries on their bodies.
Many people saw the woman's wounds, and in an instant, they understood everything.
The woman is afraid that she still has relatives, and the wound on her leg did not cut the artery, but only cut a piece of flesh on the buttocks, which may be an old man, a child, or a husband. A woman is likely to cut off her own flesh so that her closest relatives can continue to live, even for a day.
"Sun Jiang, send someone to help send her back, if there is a patient at home, give him two pills by the way, and also give this woman a box of anti-inflammatory medicine." Zheng Yifan can only do this, such people abound in the last days, and he can only ensure that such things do not happen in the area under his jurisdiction, or try not to happen.
Because he doesn't know when the zombies will break through his defenses.
"Thank you! Thank you, you are really the most merciful person in the world, as long as I live, I will definitely provide you with an immortal tablet. The woman cried bitterly and lay at Zheng Yifan's feet.
Li Ning slowly moved forward, blocking anyone who might hurt Zheng Yifan. Although his combat power is not even half of Zheng Yifan's.
"This is what we should do, since it is called Hope Mall, it is to bring hope to everyone, if what I bring is death, then it is better to close the mall and open a funeral home." Zheng Yifan said lightly.
But it seemed to touch the string in everyone's hearts, and almost everyone was in tears.
Even the relatively wealthy people who came to trade with flatbed trucks couldn't help but wet their clothes with tears.
Even though they are strong in the last days, they can get food and have a little power to protect themselves. But they have no hope, no future, because they have experienced the battle of Hansui City. The power of those fourth-order zombies is amazing, if it weren't for hundreds of thousands of people filling the zombies' mouths, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to survive.
Sales are booming, people are disciplined, not a discipline that people can understand before the end of the world, because in the last days, this discipline is the capital of their survival, the people of the last days are brutal, but that is to the enemy, to those who do not follow the rules, those who abide by the rules can survive, to live well.
"Hit! I also won, it's the ninth prize. "Fifty catties of rice is life-saving food in the eyes of the poor, but for those who are rich, it is relatively not worth mentioning, and they are fighting for the top eight prizes.
Because just now, the famous grain seller in the gathering place of Hansui City actually won the eighth prize, a whole box of canned braised pork, and everyone who was greedy swallowed saliva almost at the same time.
Of course, this is not worth mentioning at all for the fighters who wish to gather places, these are what they usually eat, and even fresh vegetables and meat.
Even those who didn't win the lottery were still excited, because they used the garbage they didn't usually use to the Hope Mall to redeem what they wanted, and everyone had no balance on their membership cards.
But they still have the membership card, because the next time they come here, they will have a certain reward for using the membership card, although it is not much, but in the last days, it is already precious.
A seven or eight-year-old child followed his mother to the prize redemption area to receive 7 prize redemption tickets, and the child happily scratched the prize. It's like scratching a street lottery ticket before the end of the world.
It had been a long time since he had relived this feeling, and perhaps only in this way could he find a hint of a pre-apocalyptic feeling.
"Mom! I won the lottery, it seems to be a fifth prize! The child's voice caught everyone's attention, and most of the other people knew the mother and daughter, who were helping people clean their rooms and mend their shoes and socks in other affluent neighborhoods. Often, things from wealthy areas are brought back and sold to them cheaply.
Although her meager income can only make ends meet for her with her daughter.
The mourning crystals she sold today are the rewards of the lords in those rich areas. A small mourning crystal, the value is not high, and those rich and noble men don't care.
Of course, that was when the Hope Mall did not settle in the gathering place of Hansui City.
Now, every mourning crystal is slowly becoming precious, and most of the people in the gathering place who have already finished buying things have not stopped, they are wandering around the gathering place and want to exchange the food they have exchanged for some mourning crystals or garbage essence fruits, as long as they have these things, they can go to the hope supermarket to exchange some more food, so that it is a good business.
There is no shortage of drill camps.
"Kid, can you stand in the flower basket and help your uncle scratch out the prize of the fifth prize?" Zheng Yifan said with a smile.
"Okay." The girl was slowly pulled into the air by the warrior next to her, and her slender arms held a small spatula and slowly scraped the fifth prize.
Store pรน 9% off membership card (limited to 50 yuan per day)
The reward doesn't seem to be peculiar, even 10 cases of liquor are not as good, but gradually, people suddenly find themselves wrong, the wrong is outrageous, if the 10 boxes of liquor are fish, then this membership card is a fishing net, a fishing net that can continue to generate wealth, because 9% off, there will be an extra 5 yuan per day, and finally fall into their hands at least 4 yuan, which is four catties of new rice. And in the days to come, when the crystals and essence fruits are insufficient, the membership card will be even more precious.
"Thank you! Thank you! The woman bowed to Zheng Yifan, although this card does not represent huge wealth, but it represents a quiet life, as long as they hope that the supermarket will not go out of business, they can eat 4 or 5 catties of rice every day. That means they will never starve to death, and even have a better life.
"This is what you deserve, God favors the good people." Zheng Yifan still smiled faintly.
There are more and more prizes, and almost all the awards are slowly being scratched off.
10th prize, 10 pounds of rice. It was scraped open by a grain merchant in the last days.
7th prize, 10 boxes of canned braised pork, which was won by the garbage king who recycles garbage in the wealthy area.
4th prize, 20% off membership card (limited to 50 yuan per day) This is a reward scratched by an unknown mercenary.
3rd prize, 7% off membership card (limited to 50 yuan per day) This is the famous mercenary group, the peripheral members of the Ice King squad scratched open.
The second prize and the first prize have not yet been announced, because there are only three copies.
But everyone almost held their breath and scratched their reward, which must be much more valuable than the third prize, and the number was only three.
"Master, let's go and scrape in the corner!" A teenager supported a middle-aged uncle, who was a little staggering.
"Field, remember, people must stand upright, stand upright, have a heroic and righteous spirit, and have a heart with the sky and the sea, and do not humble themselves or abandon themselves. Why not just scratch off a little ticket in the middle of here? Wu Yingzhou lightly scraped the lottery ticket with a small plastic spatula.
"Master! Guru! I'm in! I'm in! The young field hugged the master excitedly, and slowly revealed the corner of the lottery ticket.
Two.
Only half of the horn was exposed.
"Boy, let me see!" Behind the field, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed him by the neck.
"Get out of the way!" Wu Yingzhou staggered forward, and his right hand lightly clenched his fist and lightly hammered it on the chest of the giant man who was two meters long.
In an instant, the giant man's next words were speechless.
"Whoosh!" There was a strange noise.
The crowd felt only a flash of blue light, and then something seemed to disappear.
"Poof!" A foot high blood spurted out like a fountain. Floating in mid-air. It's a big head rolling to the ground.
"You! I! That's the deputy squad leader of the Ice King Mercenary Regiment! How dare you! Who the hell did it, don't drag us to pay for our lives together!. A frail old man in the crowd pointed at the crowd in surprise, but everyone flashed their hands pointing at them.
"So fast!" Wu Yingzhou saw clearly the weapon that killed the giant man, it was a shield, although Wu Yingzhou was short-sighted, it did not mean that his eyes were not sharp, coupled with the habit of practicing martial arts for many years, although the fast-flying thing only flashed in mid-air, he still saw it.
Looking at the young man standing behind the guard who was said to have killed hundreds of people with one shot, Wu Yingzhou was so excited for the first time, because he felt that the young man was a martial arts master, this was the feeling in his heart, and it was extremely accurate.
"The little guy who won the second prize, here is a contract for the second prize, if you agree, you can receive the second prize there, if you don't agree, then it will automatically be exchanged for a 6% off limited purchase membership card." Zheng Yifan looked at the middle-aged uncle with high morale. In his heart, he has already begun to study how to fool his uncle to serve him.
