Riding on His Coattails and Surviving the Apocalypse - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Enter The Stronghold
Bai Yuli knew that Ji Shitian did not have the intention to set up a large base. Ji Shitian often had to complete many prerequisites in advance. If he did not move, then it would be fine. He had to move quickly and ruthlessly. However, now that they entered the base, they could only appear as a larger team. They still couldn’t eat Wang Ping in one breath. The people from the Ji Clan didn’t have a good chance to seize the initiative. Lingtian let them off the hook again. In peacetime, they couldn’t see anything. But now it was the end of the world. Sigh, it could only be said that there wasn’t a family that could afford to lose money. Ji Shitian thought for a while. Indeed, as long as Lou Xiaoluo didn’t believe him, they wouldn’t be able to leave C City for the time being. “Alright, let’s do as you say.”

Lou Xiaoluo hid for a few days, When the people from B City appeared, Lou Xiaoluo mixed in and hanged the zombies, After leaving the town together, Lou Xiaoluo quickly hid. Back then, he and Ji Shitian hid the car very well. Probably, no one noticed that she had approached the place where Ji Shitian was hiding when she fought. She saw the mark left by Uncle Lin beside a kitten. It seemed that Ji Shitian was fine now. In this way, as long as he met them, he would be at ease.

Lou Xiaoluo came to the place where she hid her car and slowly drove to C City with full gas. At that time, she really couldn’t use her own driving skills. However, Lou Xiaoluo drove very well on the way these two days. After all, practice makes perfect. Lou Xiaoluo felt that after leaving the Great God, she seemed to be much smoother. Not to mention people, even zombies were rare. A few days ago, Lou Xiaoluo was happy that the cannon fodder halo was finally far away from her, but after walking for seven days in a row, Lou Xiaoluo could not remain calm.

Could it be that the path she picked was too remote? Lou Xiaoluo scratched her messy short hair again. There was no barber shop in the apocalypse. She cut her hair with her own ice knife. She probably ate it like a dog. She could only be considered a pretty little beauty now. Lou Xiaoluo was wondering where to go when a few burly men suddenly rushed out. “I opened this road, I planted this tree, if you want to pass, leave food behind.” As she spoke, she waved her broadsword. Lou Xiaoluo was in a dilemma. She was driving such an awesome car. She did not look like a weak little fat sheep, did she? Could it be that she had a look of bullying on her face? Lou Xiaoluo slowly stopped, put the key into the spatial jade, opened the door and walked out.

The big fellow outside looked at a little girl coming out of the car. The few of them were a little flustered and embarrassed. The big fellow in the lead put away his knife and smiled. It immediately made people feel very honest. “Little girl, why aren’t you alone in this world with adults? How dangerous is a weak little girl like you?” Lou Xiaoluo was stunned. Didn’t you guys make her dangerous?

“Hey, brothers, it seems that there are no more fat sheep today. Take them back to the stronghold. Little girl, why don’t you come with us to the stronghold? Sigh, it’s not easy for you to be alone.” Lou Xiaoluo did not say anything. The reborn Lou Xiaoluo was already suspicious and had encountered such a scum like Da Qiang. However, looking at these people, it seemed that they were all ordinary people. Only the leader was a mutant. She didn’t think that she was in any danger. Besides, she also wanted to find out where she was now.

“Alright, then thank you, big brother. Can I drive this car into the stronghold?” “Of course.” After saying that, Lou Xiaoluo got in the car and followed them into the stronghold. When she arrived here, Lou Xiaoluo looked at her surroundings. It was more like a small village than a stronghold.

“Look, this is our Jin Gang Stronghold.” The burly man said proudly, but in an instant, he felt a little sad. “There were originally more than a thousand people in our stronghold. Later on, the apocalypse came. Many of the old men and children in the stronghold passed away and some things happened. Now, there are less than three hundred people left. But don’t worry, young lady, we are all human beings. It’s only right to help each other.” Looking at Lou Xiaoluo’s suspicious gaze, the burly man was stunned. He remembered how he and the others had robbed him earlier, and his face was a little red.

“We are not that kind of people. We usually only robbed people when they were well-equipped. Normally, we only left one-third of that person’s supplies. If it weren’t for the insufficient stock in the stockade, we wouldn’t have robbed them.” Lou Xiaoluo smiled. It seemed that they usually met some ordinary people. Once they met an Adept, it was estimated that their strength wouldn’t be bad if they didn’t let others rob them. However, even if they left two-thirds of the supplies for the robbed people, it would not make anyone grateful.

Lou Xiaoluo sized up the Diamond Steel Stronghold. Even in the apocalypse, it gave people a very comfortable feeling. She thought that before the apocalypse, she should have done enough to protect the environment. “Big Brother Daniu, you guys are back. Eh, you brought a little sister.” Two twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old women walked over with a smile. “Come, young lady, let me introduce you. This is Tian Cui and Wu Jiao, the Awakened Adepts of our stronghold. Both of them are water type. Haha, although half of our stronghold’s water resources are polluted, luckily there are still water type Adepts. It seems like the heavens will never stop our Jin Gang Stronghold.” The big man called Daniu smiled optimistically, looking full of hope.

Lou Xiaoluo listened to the laughter and her eyes were slightly warm. From her previous life until the time of her death, the apocalypse process seemed to be rising. It would be good if she could always be so optimistic. “This is the girl I met today. Her name is.” At this point, Daniu remembered that he hadn’t asked the little girl what her name was. “My name is Lou Xiaoluo.” Lou Xiaoluo smiled and said.

“Little sister Xiaoluo, don’t worry about staying in the stronghold. There aren’t many other things in the stronghold right now. There are only many houses. But I think Brother Daniu, you didn’t bring back anything except a little girl today.” Tian Cui was very unhappy with the habit of bringing people to the village after Daniu’s apocalypse. I brought back two people just to eat and be lazy. In the end, I even stole something from the stronghold and ran away. I didn’t expect Daniu Ji to bring people to the stronghold even if he didn’t remember to eat or beat them. It’s this kind of delicate little girl again. Ah.

Feeling Tian Cui’s unwelcome attitude, Lou Xiaoluo’s heart relaxed. This was the normal attitude. Big Bull’s face also turned red. He rubbed his hands and whispered, “Lady Xiaoluo is not that kind of person.” After saying that, she secretly looked at Lou Xiaoluo, thinking that he had no confidence in himself, Lou Xiaoluo secretly laughed in her heart.

“Can you tell if it’s that kind of person? Those who are still pretty are all good people.” Lou Xiaoluo looked at Tian Cui’s somewhat jealous expression and felt a little funny in her heart. Although she was lying down and shot, some people praised her for being pretty. As for women, they were always happy to be said to be beautiful. Especially those who praised her were also women. They were happy. She didn’t expect Tian Cui to have a pair of eyes that could see through the phenomenon. It was amazing.

Wu Jiao looked at the three of them and came out to make an end of it. “Xiaoluo, don’t think too much. Tian Cui is just a saber-mouthed tofu heart. Not only did Brother Daniu bring back two people who were too lazy to let the villagers feed them, the most hateful thing was that he stole the things from the stronghold and ran away. Tian Cui was also scared, thinking more about the stronghold.” Lou Xiaoluo did not take Tian Cui’s hostility seriously. “Sister Wu, I’m fine, It’s good to be cautious in the apocalypse, I don ‘t want to stay in that stronghold, “I just lost my friend. Originally, we agreed to meet at the base in C City, but I haven’t been there for a long time. I came here with Daniu He just to get to know the situation. Of course, I will take care of my own food while I borrow the stronghold. I will also give you the necessities of life. Take it as the cost of my stay.” After saying that, she walked into the car and took out all the food in the car. Lou Xiaoluo originally did not plan to live in vain.

Looking at Lou Xiaoluo taking out a large bag of things, Daniu was so anxious that his face was covered in sweat. Tian Cui was also a little embarrassed, but she still said firmly, “I’m also doing this for the stronghold.” Looking at these people, Lou Xiaoluo sighed in her heart. Before the apocalypse, there weren’t many such simple people. Thinking about the location of this place, it must be a relatively closed mountain village.

“Sister, there’s no need for this. We, that.” Lou Xiaoluo interrupted Daniu and said, “Big Brother Daniu, I appreciate your kindness, but big sister Tian Cui is right. Right now, the stronghold can’t raise people for nothing. If you don’t accept it, I will leave now.” Wu Jiao stepped forward and said, “Then we won’t be polite anymore. Thank you, sister. Let me introduce the stronghold to you.”

After understanding the general situation of the Jin Gang Stronghold, Wu Jiao brought Lou Xiaoluo into an independent courtyard. “So this is the wealthy villager in the stronghold. After the apocalypse broke out, she ran away with her family. Let’s clean up the girl and stay here later.” Lou Xiaoluo looked at the surroundings and felt very satisfied. “Oh right, I heard that you are going to C City. Where did she come from?”

“I’m from City A, and I got separated from my friend when we passed through City B. At that time, we agreed to go to City C.” Wu Jiao was stunned when she heard this, “Sister, this place is already quite far from B City, but this place is even farther from C City. Perhaps you are on the wrong path.” Although Lou Xiaoluo was already prepared in her heart, she sighed. It was not as if she had gone wrong, it was really wrong. Lou Xiaoluo felt that she was resting in Jin Gang Stronghold for a few days now, studying and understanding the route on the road. Sigh, it would be good if she could navigate properly.

Because the people of the Jin Gang Stronghold knew that Lou Xiaoluo was not someone who ate and drank for nothing, and because the girl’s mouth was sweet, they had a good relationship with the stronghold in a few days. Even Tian Cui did not have any hostility towards Lou Xiaoluo. Lou Xiaoluo’s estimation of her own character value increased linearly. Originally, they decided to leave tomorrow, but the sudden appearance of Daniu and the others made Lou Xiaoluo very puzzled. After all, after spending some time together, Lou Xiaoluo also had a good impression of Jin Gang Stronghold. Although the people here had some selfish shortcomings, it was better than simplicity. This place was more like a paradise.

A small theater

Lou Xiaoluo: People like you who don’t lack anything, don’t you have no wishes since you were young? Thinking about it, it’s also true. It’s sad to have what you want when you reach out.

Di Qiu: Who said that? I have a dream. I hope to conquer all the cyber security systems and be able to research and produce all kinds of weapons.

Bai Yuli: My dream is to protect Young Master. I will always be Young Master’s perfect right and left hand.

Qi Han: Complete his dream with Bai Yuli.

Xu Jin: Take a good look at Di Qiu and serve the young master together.

Ji Shitian: World peace.

Lou Xiaoluo…
