Chapter 55: Squirrel Mandarin Fish, Stars in the Sky
The light on the stairs winding down was dim.
I don't know where Sun Huanian clicked, and the orange light came on. The four of them turned three corners and finally saw the true face of the secret room.
The ceiling light in the secret room is very bright, making everything inside clearly visible.
There are three rows of tall glass cabinets arranged neatly inside, with many wooden boxes placed in each compartment.
Sun Huanian took down a box near the door. The box was relatively old and it could obviously be seen that it had been used frequently.
He opened it, took out a green jade bracelet, held it in his hand, stroked it lovingly a few times, and begged: "Two benefactors, this is my mother's favorite bracelet, can I keep it?"
Gu Wenyue nodded: "Of course, as long as you remember what you promised us."
Sun Huanian nodded and said: "Don't worry, remember it firmly. These are all the jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings collected by my parents. You can just take them all."
After walking together, he also guessed that there was space in them.
To be honest, he actually envied the space system's superpower, which was much more useful than his speed system.
Gu Wenyue touched the shelves one by one. The shelves disappeared out of thin air and were taken to the basement of the Black Wood Tower.
Sun Huanian and Sun Huaming looked at each other and said that they were lying if they said they didn't feel bad. However, it was better to give their parents' collection to these people so that they could live here than to let Uncle Wu and others take over.
He sighed softly and walked to the innermost wall, where there was a graffiti painted by him and his brother when they were young. There were also traces of his parents on it.
He was glad that this family was not the ones who plucked their feathers, and he could still leave them with a thought.
The man took down the painting, and there was another password lock underneath. He entered the password as usual.
A small invisible door popped open, and he pulled out a password box from inside. After operating it a few times, he took out a black pistol from inside.
He held it in his hand. It was heavy and cold. He played with it twice before saying, "My benefactor, my father got this by chance."
Gu Wenxing took it, unloaded the magazine skillfully, and put it in his pocket. It was better than nothing.
But this reminded him of a place where he could get a batch of highly lethal weapons. You can go there after you have been to Feng Xingyuan.
"Where are the supplies?" Gu Wenyue asked.
"Outside, you two come with me."
The villa is either big or small. Before the end of the world comes, there are already a lot of rumors on the Internet.
The mother of the two brothers is a person who likes to prepare for everything, especially hoarding things, and she hoarded a lot during that time.
Unfortunately, she turned into a zombie on the day the apocalypse came.
Sun Huanian put away the grief in his eyes and pushed open the door of the storage room: "Two benefactors, can you please leave some living necessities for us brothers."
Gu Wenyue naturally agreed. They had a lot of supplies, but they only collected half of the things symbolically.
The two brothers, Sun Huanian, were overjoyed and kept thanking them.
They thought they would have to venture out to find supplies in the future, but they didn't expect this family to be so kind-hearted.
When Gu Jinguo and Zhao Minan came back, they saw the two Sun brothers. One was serving tea and water to their children diligently, while the other was busy in the kitchen.
The door opened, and Sun Huanian came out of the kitchen with a real smile on his face: "The two benefactors are back. Take a rest, you can eat in a while."
The fruits at home were almost exhausted, so they opened a watermelon and placed it on the coffee table. The red watermelon had a hint of coolness.
Now the water is sometimes clear and sometimes muddy. Although the water has not been cut off, they dare not use it. Who knows if there is a zombie virus in the water now? Fortunately, his mother bought a lot of water when she was there.
The power had not been turned off yet, and there were still a lot of meat and vegetables in the refrigerators. Gu Wenyue did not collect any of them. The space could produce fresh vegetables and poultry, which were more delicious than those bought outside.
No one likes to sacrifice good for bad.
Although Sun Huanian is a young master, he seems to be particularly talented in cooking. He has learned it several times before out of curiosity, and he can cook it decently. On the long marble table, ten dishes were placed.
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time." Sun Huanian held a plate of squirrel mandarin fish and said with a smile, "It's the last dish, how about you try it quickly?"
From now on, it is rare to have such a sumptuous meal.
The two Sun brothers cherished him very much, and were no longer afraid of the indifferent Gu Wenxing, and even started to persuade him to drink.
Gu Wenxing gave them a cold look: "Don't give my sister alcohol."
Sun Huanian quickly took back the hand that was holding the wine, changed his hand to juice, handed it to Gu Wenyue, and said with a smile: "Several benefactors, we still don't know what to call you?"
Zhao Minan put down her chopsticks, took a sip of juice, and said with a gentle smile: "Xiao Sun, we may not see each other again in the future."
When the words stopped here, Sun Huanian knew that this family did not intend to have a close relationship with the two brothers.
Once again, he regretted hiding it.
However, he had no idea why they had to pester these four people to avenge themselves on that stretch of road.
After the meal, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
It's not safe outside now, so Sun Huanian and Gu Wenxing take turns keeping vigil at night.
All the lights in the villa were turned off, and several people slept on the second floor. The door and windows were closed extremely tightly, and tables and cabinets were used to block them.
Gu Wenxing stayed up for the rest of the night. Although zombies have lost their eyesight, their hearing and sense of smell are extremely sharp. He set the alarm to vibrate mode, and when the alarm rang, he opened his eyes.
In the boundless darkness, there was no trace of sleepiness in those cold and sharp eyes.
He walked out of the room and walked to the small balcony on the second floor under the faint light from his mobile phone.
Sun Huanian was sitting upright, holding a long sword tightly in his hand.
He bought this for fun and taught himself how to sharpen it, but he didn't expect to use it now.
The sound of footsteps came, and he turned around alertly, the long sword in his hand reflecting a gleam of light.
"Okay, you go and rest." Gu Wenxing pushed away the sword with one hand.
Sun Huashan took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "I was scared to death. By the way, you should pay more attention to that direction. I heard movement over there, but I didn't see any zombies."
Gu Wenxing nodded and sat down slowly and methodically.
There is no cloud tonight, and half a crescent moon hangs in the sky. Perhaps it is due to the reduction of industrial and exhaust emissions. The night sky has become brighter and brighter recently, and stars are twinkling in the sky.
Gu Wenxing opened his palms and held them emptyly with his slender fingers. A ball of purple light and electricity appeared out of thin air in his palms.
It was so similar to the stars in the sky, but it came from another world that he had never heard of.
He didn't notice that the redbud flowers on his chest flickered very slightly as he absorbed the energy.
The night was uneventful, and early the next morning, the four of them dressed up, ate some meat buns prepared by Sun Huanian, and got ready to go.
The weather is much cooler today, so there is no need to turn on the air conditioner in the car. Open the windows and enjoy the cool breeze.
After leaving the villa, Gu Wenyue discovered that the surrounding vegetation had grown much taller overnight. It seemed that the emergence of mutant plants was not far away.
I don’t know if her superpower is still useful against the mutant plants that were actually born in the apocalypse.
There was deep expectation in her heart.
"After two more roads, we will return to the original planned route."
Gu Jinguo held the map and said to his son sitting in the driver's seat.
