167 After the Earthquake

Seeing that Wu Di did not react, Zhang Zepeng felt bored and snorted, What kind of celebration is the base going to hold in the square outside today? Food will be provided for free. Let's go quickly. We won't be able to snatch it from others if we dawdle any longer.

After he finished speaking, Zhang Zepeng left without looking back. Wu Di also slowly followed. There were only a few people in the base who had cars, so most of the people walked out like the two of them. Along the way, everyone he saw was wearing casual clothes. They were talking and laughing with the people around them as they walked, and everyone's face was full of smiles.

It was as if they had finally seen the light of dawn after struggling in the darkness for a long time. Now that the temperature had recovered, did it mean that their lives would soon return to how they were before the apocalypse?

When Du Yue and He Xing drove to the entrance of the base, they saw many other cars driving out of the base. These vehicles were all cars or large trucks. Even if she could not see what was inside, Du Yue could vaguely guess. Following the convoy out of the base, Du Yue saw that the square outside the base was already packed with people.

Du Yue and He Xing did not stop the car right away. Instead, they continued to drive on the main road as they had agreed on earlier. As the car drove on the road, Du Yue realized that there were many off-road vehicles like them on the road. There were even many RVs. There must be a lot of people in the base who knew about the earthquake.

After a long drive, Du Yue and He Xing finally found a suitable spot and parked the car by the side of the road. Du Yue locked her car and went to He Xing's. Du Yue sat in the front passenger seat and looked at the RV in front of her. She had mixed feelings. I bought an RV before, but I don't have the chance to use it now.

He Xing reached out and pinched Du Yue's cheek. Don't be upset. Think about it from another perspective. We don't have an RV, so we won't attract any attention. We can avoid a lot of trouble to a certain extent, can't we?

Du Yue gave He Xing a big thumbs-up. Now that you've said that, I don't think it's a pity anymore.

The two of them rested in the car for a while and got out at noon. Almost as soon as the two of them got out of the car, they felt a violent shake before they could even stand firm. Du Yue! Du Yue heard He Xing's urgent voice, but before she could respond, she was pulled into a warm embrace. The two of them supported each other and walked to an open space on the side. The earthquake was so strong that they only took a few steps before they fell to the ground together.

Even though they were lying on the ground, Du Yue still felt dizzy. Du Yue felt as if her brain was about to be shaken up. She could not even stand up. Her consciousness gradually became muddled, and she felt nothing but disgust. It was unknown how long it took before the shaking gradually stopped. Even though the earthquake had stopped, Du Yue still felt dizzy as she lay on the ground with her eyes closed.

After a long while, she finally heard He Xing's voice. The voice seemed to have come from another dimension and was separated by something. She could not hear him clearly. Du Yue slowly opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the voice. She saw He Xing with four heads, and his four mouths were opening and closing at the same time. She had no idea what he was saying.

Du Yue's head hurt. She closed her eyes and rested for a while until the dizziness and nauseating feeling reduced a lot. Then, she opened her eyes. This time, He Xing did not have four heads and four mouths. Du Yue's tensed heart finally relaxed. She curled her lips at He Xing and flashed him a comforting smile.

He Xing looked at the smile on Du Yue's face and asked worriedly, Du Yue, are you hurt? Do you feel uncomfortable?

I'm not hurt. I'm fine, Du Yue replied softly and sat up slowly.

The feeling of dizziness was much better than before, and the scene in front of her was finally no longer spinning. Du Yue looked around and did not see anyone injured. The main reason was that they were all outside and there were no buildings around. Although everyone was dizzy from the shock, it was fortunate that they did not suffer any substantial injuries.

At that moment, many people were lying on the ground with their eyes closed, just like Du Yue before. Even though some of them were able to force themselves to sit up, their expressions were still dazed from the shock. It was obvious that they had not recovered from the shock. Du Yue looked around before she turned to He Xing. Seeing He Xing's face and body covered in sand, Du Yue knew what she looked like now. However, at this time, no one would care if they were covered in sand.
