The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 54

Chapter 54 Generosity
Yi Fan glanced at the four large characters carved on the rock at the entrance of the mountain stream tunnel. Yi Fan’s home belonged to the middle of City C and LY County. City C was about 50 kilometers back, and the distance to LY County was more than 20 kilometers. This mountain stream tunnel was one of them.

Yifan restarted the car and turned on the headlights. He said to Ji Ruoxue, “It should be dark inside. Release your spiritual energy and try to sense the surroundings.”

Ji Ruoxue probably made a mistake just now. She lowered her eyebrows and did not say anything. She only nodded quickly.

‘”Buzz…” After Cauliflower cleaned up the cars at the intersection, Yifan quickly drove into the tunnel. It was very dark inside, and Yifan could not see too far with his high beam. It looked like there was a lot of dust inside, and it was like there was water mist inside the tunnel. Yifan immediately turned on the wiper.

The wiper emitted a crashing sound as Yi Fan slowly drove inside.

Cauliflower swam at the forefront. The snakes were very accustomed to the darkness. After the cauliflower entered, it let out a hissing sound.

After walking for about two kilometers, he didn’t see a single lost or alive human. The further he went, the closer the lights got, making Yifan feel extremely uncomfortable when he was driving.

He hadn’t expected that Yi Fan would lead the convoy all the way through the first tunnel and reach the link between the first tunnel and the second tunnel. On the way to the tunnel link, Yi Fan saw a few familiar cars.

It was actually the car of the squad called Hu Bin who passed by yesterday. There was a tunnel maintenance station on the roadside.

Yi Fan originally did not plan to stop, but when he saw that the second tunnel entrance was filled with cars, he roughly understood why not many abandoned cars had been found in the first tunnel, and they were all piled up here artificially.

The road connecting the tunnels wasn’t too far. Yifan’s convoy had just gotten out of a dregs truck when two off-road vehicles saw the door of the tunnel maintenance station parked full of cars suddenly open. There were more than a hundred people coming out of it.

When Yi Fan saw this, he took out a message and said, “All members of the Heavenly Rock Five Bird Hawks, Bears, and Deer teams, get out of the car. The Apes and Tigers are on standby on the bus.”

Hula! In an instant, all 28 members of the three teams, plus Yi Fan and Fina, gathered around Yi Fan. 30 people were quietly waiting for the 100-odd people from the tunnel maintenance station.

Yi Fan looked at the 100 or so people walking towards them. The leader was a middle-aged man in a suit and shoes over 40 years old. When Yi Fan sized him up, he also sized up Yi Fan and the motionless cauliflower standing beside him. A moment later, he said, “Little brother, are you guys going to the city?”

Yi Fan said indifferently, “Who are you?”

“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Wu Guohao, the mayor of Yangtong Town. After the disaster broke out, I led everyone to gather here.” The middle-aged man said.

Yifan said expressionlessly, “Oh, I’m not interested in your position or what you’ve done. I just want to go over here.”

Wu Guohao said, “Little brother, what you said is wrong. We are all sons and daughters of China, so we should put the overall situation first. The current situation needs to be more united, so that we can survive this disaster.”

Yifan replied in disgust, “I don’t want to hear you say anything generous here. I don’t have time to argue with you. If there’s nothing else, I think you can step aside.”

Before Wu Guohao could say anything, a bald man in the same suit beside him said, “Little brother, we are all survivors of this disaster. I heard that you have been resting 20 kilometers away for a period of time. You should have collected some food. If you can give us some food, we will take it as a loan and return it to you in the future.”

“Haha, I’ll say it again. I don’t have time to argue with you here. I don’t have any extra food for you. Even if I do, I won’t give it to you. Are you satisfied with this answer?” Yifan laughed.

This time, Wu Guohao immediately replied, “Little brother, how can you be so selfish? There are still hundreds of people in the maintenance station behind me. Are you going to let them starve to death? Since you have the ability, why can’t you help us?”

Yifan said, “I do have food. My people used their lives to exchange for it. Why did I give it to you in vain? Who are you? Just by saying that everyone is Chinese and survivors? Is there something wrong with your head or my ears?”

“As an evolver, why don’t you go collect food yourself? Why don’t you go to a city full of zombies to search for food? Instead, you choose to block the way and ask for food from others. I repeat, get out of the way.”

Wu Guohao said, “Little brother, are you joking? The situation in the city is still unclear, but we are weak. When the situation becomes clear, we will definitely go.”

“Little brother, you can rest assured that I will definitely not take it for nothing. When we arrive at LY County, I will definitely record your contribution. At that time, I will even report it to the country. If you hand over a large amount of grain, I will try my best to hire an official or something.”

“Alright, I’m not interested in listening to your explanation. This has nothing to do with me. Hurry up and get out of the way. Otherwise, I don’t mind killing you. Do you believe me?” Yifan let go of his aura and placed one hand on his waist. He looked coldly at Wu Guohao. Everyone behind Yifan saw that the group leader had spoken. They placed their weapons on their hands and were ready to charge at any time.

“Hiss …!” Seeing that Yi Fan was about to make a move, Cai Hua hissed excitedly and stretched her head forward. If she hadn’t seen that Yi Fan hadn’t moved, she would have already rushed out.

Wu Guohao looked at the leading black trench coat youth in front of him and couldn’t help but say, “Little brother, it’s up to the country to oppose you like this.”

After hearing this, Yi Fan laughed wildly, “Haha… Hahahaha, just your words alone can represent the attitude of the entire country. Don’t tease me, okay? Mayor Wu, for the last time, food is my personal property. I might as well feed people like you to dogs. Now, get out of my way, or I don’t mind lifting you up later.”

Wu Guohao was utterly helpless. He looked at the resolute gaze of the leader of the group and knew that they were unable to speak or threaten him.

“Since that’s the case, little brother, please do as you please. I hope that when we meet again next time, little brother will still be so tough.” Wu Guohao said gloomily.

When Yifan heard this, he said coldly, “Is this a threat?”

At this moment, Wu Guohao was forced into a corner. He secretly clenched his fists and said, “This depends on the little brother’s understanding.”

As he spoke, he led everyone out of the way. Seeing him lead them away, Yifan didn’t want to argue any further. “Let me remind you, you can’t speak nonsense, because in this world, you have to lose your head if you say something wrong, and you’d better pray that you don’t have a chance to see me again.”

Yifan turned to Zhou Xin and said, “Zhou Xin, bring two people to look at them. If someone doesn’t open their eyes, open one on his head and let them have long eyes.”

Zhou Xin hung an arrow from his bow. His green pupils were already vertical. Everyone on the other side instantly felt like a little mouse being stared at by an eagle. How could they dare to take another half step forward? They all stood upright.

Yifan saw Hu Bin standing beside the crowd and said, “Hu Bin, don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”

“That little brother, I didn’t say that. My people were split up by them after they arrived here. I don’t know who said that, but I can patt my chest and say that it wasn’t what I, Hu Bin, said.” Hu Bin said excitedly.

Yi Fan curled his lips and smiled, “Since that’s the case, I’ll trust you once, and I won’t pursue you anymore.”

As he spoke, he ignored the crowd and drove off with Ji Ruoxue and the others, leaving Zhou Xin, Zhou Le, Ling Wanyao, and Cauliflower standing there.

Yifan only took two or three steps when he heard Hu Bin shouting, “Little brother, no, boss, do I want to go with you?”

Yifan did not stop to continue walking into the tunnel. Just as Hu Bin was a little disappointed, a voice came out, “Drive your own car and follow behind my convoy. Follow closely. If you lose it, I won’t care about you.”

“Buzz buzz buzz!” A dirt truck drove forward, but Cauliflower did not look at those people. Instead, she arrived at the second tunnel entrance and swept her tail. Several cars blocking the road were lifted up like garbage bins.

A moment later, the road ahead was clear. Yi Fan slowly brought the convoy into the second tunnel entrance, while Hu Bin drove an off-road vehicle with a woman in professional attire and followed closely behind Yi Fan’s convoy.

Wu Guohao looked at the convoy that had disappeared at the entrance of the second cave. A venomous light shone in his eyes. He knew that the man had been tempted to kill. He could also feel the powerful aura on the man’s body, the thick and sharp aura that was pressing down like a mountain of blades.

He knew that as long as he dared to say another word or reveal any dangerous gaze, he would definitely be killed without hesitation. At this moment, his entire body was trembling. He knew that he had encountered a fellow who was definitely not an ordinary person.

That person was definitely a decisive murderer. Although he was a bit unwilling, he actually didn’t want to meet that person anymore. Just now, he just wanted to leave a little face in front of these over 100 subordinates. Otherwise, it would be difficult to control the situation if his face was disgraced, and the people below would also be prone to malicious intentions.

If he had been alone, he would have long since admitted defeat. After so many years of rolling and crawling in the bureaucracy, there was no such thing as bending and stretching. How could he possibly sit in the position of the head of a town?

At this moment, Hu Bin was hitting the snake and following the stick. He drove the off-road vehicle and followed behind the Yifan convoy. His co-driver was still sitting on the woman in the uniform. At this moment, the woman in the uniform said, “Hu Bin, why are we not following the officials of the Government FU? Why are we following them?”

Hu Bin said excitedly, “The woman thinks that following this person is more than a hundred times stronger than following the mayor. That mayor can also rob the food of survivors on the road. If he dies, he can take down one or two supermarkets and gather a bunch of hooligans. A real strong person will definitely not truly admire him.”

“And what we’re following right now is the true powerhouse of this apocalyptic world. It’s not something that the mayor can compare to. In this damned apocalyptic world, only by following such a powerhouse can we live better, or live longer.”

“Try your best to show your worth. I can see that that person won’t raise useless trash. I don’t want to be discarded as trash.”
