Chapter 101: 101

101 Just Wait, Don’t Move

The noodles were very easy to cook, and they were cooked in a short while. Looking at the noodles cooked in the boiling spicy soup, Du Yue sighed inwardly. This pot of noodles was good in every way except for the lack of green vegetables as toppings. However, on second thought, it was already good enough to have a hot bite in this environment, so she should not be so picky.

The two of them finished a pot full of noodles. In the end, they were so full that they did not want to move at all. Du Yue squinted her eyes slightly. She suddenly felt that this kind of life was quite good. In the beginning, she was already prepared to fight and live alone in her second life. However, He Xing had barged into her life without any explanation. The two of them had even become neighbors by chance. Now, they could be considered comrades who had gone through thick and thin together.

This was the first time Du Yue had experienced the feeling of fighting side by side with another. Overall, it was not bad!

Du Yue was still deep in thought when He Xing suddenly stood up. “Rest here for a while. I’ll go clean up the dishes.” He Xing acted fast on his words. Before he could finish his words, he had already gotten out of the car with the pot, bowls, and chopsticks. Du Yue’s eyes curved into crescents as she watched He Xing stride through the heavy snow. She had only thought that it was not bad earlier, but now, she suddenly felt that being able to accompany and rely on each other was simply wonderful.

After He Xing washed the pot and the dishes, he went to clean up the wild animal carcasses without rest. Du Yue did not stay idle either and followed him out of the car. The two of them worked together to pull all the carcasses of the wolves and wild boars back. They put as many as they could in the trunk and put the rest on the roof of the car. Fortunately, He Xing’s car was big enough and had a strong capacity, so all of them could be loaded on. However, on the way back, they could clearly feel that the speed of the car was slower than when they came.

The two of them returned using the same route they had come from. When they passed by the first village, they saw that there were no more vehicles on the roadside, which was full of vehicles prior. Du Yue looked out the window. “They must have returned after rescuing the survivors.”

He Xing nodded. “Yeah. No matter what, life in the base is better than in the village. I don’t think anyone would be unwilling.” Even if the villagers had their own stored food, they would run out of it one day. With the current weather, none of the crops could be grown, and neither could domestic animals be raised. If they insisted on staying in the village, they would only end up dead.

Du Yue was about to speak when she heard a shrill scream from a distance. She jumped in shock, but she quickly recovered and looked at He Xing. “Did you hear someone screaming?”

He Xing frowned and listened for a moment before nodding at her. “I heard it. I think someone’s calling for help.”

The sound was carried to their ears by the cold wind. The sound of the snow and the cold wind was mixed together, so they could not tell the specific direction of the sound. The two of them looked at each other, and neither of them suggested going to see what was going on. However, there were people who did not want them to leave just like that.

He Xing stepped on the brakes and raised his chin. Someone had buried something in the snow up ahead. “It seems like someone is trying to stop us.” Du Yue looked in the direction he was pointing and saw that the snow in the middle of the road was thicker than on any of the other roads they had passed. It was normal to have snow on the road in this weather, but this road had already been cleared by the snow-sweeping trucks before, and there was only a thin layer of snow on the other parts of the road. The snow in front of them was obviously much thicker than in other places.

Anyone who had eyes would know that this was deliberately done by someone. Du Yue could not help but recall that the group of baldies from before had also scattered iron nails all over the road to stop her car and rob her. The bald men were brazen at the time, but the people blocking the road this time were hiding in the dark, so their intentions could not be guessed.

Du Yue’s eyes glinted playfully. “They set up the trap in such a clumsy way on purpose so that we’d notice that something was wrong at a glance and then get out of the car to check it out.” Even though the surroundings seemed to be completely silent, Du Yue knew that the moment she and He Xing got out of the car to clear the snow, the people hiding in the dark would immediately show themselves.

He Xing smiled faintly. “Since someone has arranged such a good show, why don’t we play with them?”

He Xing patted Du Yue’s shoulder. “I’ll get out of the car and clear the road. You stay in the car and don’t move.”

He Xing did not need to explain further as Du Yue knew what he wanted to say. “Alright, go ahead!”
