The blizzard had stopped by now.

The snowy ground was stained red with blood,

Everyone watched as Li Yu, like a madman, decapitated the tiger, not daring to utter a word.

Li Yu was furious, mostly at himself.

In his past life, amidst the arduous fight for survival, he had honed a sixth sense. Only when the tiger pounced did he sense it; he felt that his sense of crisis was not as sharp as before.

Li Hang and Dapao had gotten out of the vehicle without bringing any guns. Was this complacency?

Just because there were fewer zombies seen after the blizzard, did that mean they could let their guard down? So much so that they could leave the vehicle without taking their weapons?

Li Yu looked at everyone and said in a stern voice:

"We must not let our guard down now!

These past few days, the scarcity of zombies doesn't mean the danger has lessened!

From now on, whenever we're outside the base, carry your guns with you, because one moment of negligence could mean death!

Understand?"

After Li Yu spoke, he looked no further at the others.

After hearing Li Yu's words, Li Hang and Dapao became alert, feeling a chill down their spines.

They couldn't recall when, but it seemed they had indeed become much more lax.

If they had had their weapons just now, handling the tiger wouldn't have been so troublesome.

What if, instead of a single tiger, there had been a group of them.

What would they have done?

With this thought, everyone broke into a cold sweat and began to deeply reflect on their actions. They all rushed to the vehicles to carry their handguns and submachine guns.

Li Yu stood in front of several houses and said to the group:

"Drive the vehicles inside. Later, Yang Tianlong and Shang Xue'er stay in the Unimog, don't turn off the engine. Lao Xie, you go drive the truck; the rest follow me inside to search for things. Quickly!"

Everyone could feel that Li Yu was not in a good mood, so they didn't dare to speak and hurried to take action.

"Xiao Hang, you lead the way," said Li Yu.

"Okay," Li Hang replied and went straight into the wholesale market.

The market was huge, with ceilings seven to eight meters high.

Perhaps when the apocalypse erupted, people had not reacted yet, and the shops had not closed their doors.

The ground was cluttered with various electronics scattered all around.

But it was apparent that the place had not been flooded, so many things had been preserved.

As Li Hang led the way, everyone followed deeper inside. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

The deeper they went, the darker it got.

So they all turned on their flashlights to light the path ahead.

Li Hang, walking at the forefront, with Li Yu and Dapao right behind him, and Lao Lu following at the end.

Armed with submachine guns and flashlights in their hands, the direction the flashlight pointed was where the submachine guns aimed.

Suddenly, in front of a store, Li Hang saw batteries and turned to say:

"Brother Yu, there's a lot of stuff here, these storage batteries could also be taken back."

Li Yu nodded. On the way here, they had come across many electronic products; many could be of use, like the watches they saw earlier.

"The priority now is to find the inverter. Once found, we'll move whatever we need and can use as much as possible. The rest we can come back for after this blizzard."

"Okay."

Everyone kept silent; Li Hang knew the area well, and after several twists and turns, they finally found a shop that sold photovoltaic inverters.

Although the shop was closed - which was normal for some of the stores they passed earlier - this particular closure made Li Yu's heart skip a beat; he hoped it hadn't gone out of business.

Li Hang quickly said, "There are several more stores ahead that sell inverters."

Li Yu nodded and immediately headed toward the closed shop.

The lights shone inside, revealing neat rows of merchandise, and Li Yu sighed in relief.

It seemed that no one had been here since the apocalypse started; the goods must be well-preserved.

Thinking this, Li Yu used his submachine gun to shatter the glass.

Bang bang bang!

After several shots, glass shards littered the ground.

Li Yu went inside, surveyed the shop, took an inverter off the wall shelf, and asked, "Is this model good?"

Li Hang took it and replied, "Yes. There's a lot we can use here; since we're here, let's take it all back."

Li Yu nodded, then wheeled out a cart he'd found on the way here, loading all the inverters from the shop onto it.

Dapao and Lao Lu came over to help.

Before long, they had cleared out the shop's goods, filling four carts to the brim.

Li Yu looked at the remaining items on the floor; the cart was large and, now filled, was extremely difficult to push.

Li Yu left the shop, reminiscing about the route they'd taken here. While the ground was littered with items, the corridor was very spacious, about ten meters wide.

The width was enough!

Li Yu glanced up at the ceiling, an idea sparking in his mind. He thought to himself how obstinate he was being, considering the circumstances.

Pulling out his walkie-talkie, he spoke to Lao Xie and Shang Xue'er, "Drive the vehicle straight in here. Xiao Hang will come to meet you."

"Alright. There's a fence at the entrance..." Shang Xue'er hesitated.

"Just break through it. What are you thinking about?" said Li Yu.

Driving such a heavy vehicle inside will definitely cause irreparable damage to the tiled floor, but damn, it's the apocalypse.

"Okay." Shang Xue'er replied.

"Xiao Hang, you go and meet them and drive the truck straight in," Li Yu said.

"Alrighty."

....

Everyone cleared out all the inverters. The truck was nearly 10 meters long and 4 meters high. After emptying out the inverters, they only occupied less than one third of the truck's space.

Besides inverters, Li Yu asked Li Hang to think of other components related to solar energy, including solar panels and so on, anything that might be useful was loaded up.

After packing these things, the truck only had less than one-fifth of its space remaining.

There were also two barrels of diesel. Li Yu directly told Lao Xie and Lao Lu to carry them into the Unimog RV.

Having moved these, the group drove around the electronic wholesale market.

The once smooth tiled floor cracked open due to the passing of the ten-ton truck.

They cleared out the watch store, everyone holding a watch, which included electronic watches and mechanical ones, some of which looked quite valuable but were now cheap for Li Yu's group.

To save space, they removed the packaging of these items and stuff them straight into cardboard boxes.

They also crudely and simply packed other electronic products in plastic containers.

After scavenging the area, they found a few other items that seemed useful, such as soy milk makers and blenders, only grabbed two big boxes of these household appliances and left the rest.

The Unimog was already packed full, with just some space left for movement.

Li Yu boarded the Unimog vehicle, and this time he had Lao Xie and the other two drive the truck back.

"Let's come again next time," Li Yu said.

The group reluctantly took one last look at this place.

This place, maybe because it was in the suburbs with sparse population, or perhaps due to its higher terrain, had suffered little damage. It looked like no one had been here since the apocalypse broke out.

Perhaps everyone thought that department stores were more reliable places during the apocalypse.

When people like Lao Lu went out to gather supplies before, they didn't think to come to places like an electronic wholesale market. What could you find in such a place after the apocalypse....

It was precisely because of this that Li Yu and his group even found some food here!

Although most of it was expired, it provided them with a direction; sometimes, useful things are not what we think they are.

"Okay, that'll be it for today, let's hurry back," Li Yu checked his watch.

"Yep, let's head back." Dapao said.

It was already 11:45 am.

They had come here at 8 am as it got light, taking an hour to get here. They were delayed for a while outside by a tiger.

It took more than two hours to move stuff around; they needed to leave quickly and get back to the base sooner to avoid unnecessary risks.

"Uh, Brother Yu, are we going back the same way?" Dapao asked.

They had stayed the previous night at the entrance of a hotel in the city center, then came here, crossing a good portion of the city.

Now, being in the suburbs, they could completely avoid going back into the city center and instead take the expressway.

Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "We won't go through the city, let's take the expressway back."

After thinking, he said to Shang Xue'er, "You give us directions, you're probably more familiar with this road, right?"

Shang Xue'er nodded and replied, "Yeah, we can get on the Ganming Highway, that's faster."

So, following Shang Xue'er's guidance, Dapao drove toward the direction she indicated.

.....

The snow had stopped, but the snow on the ground was still very thick.

So, on the way back, they couldn't drive fast.

Just after leaving the wholesale city, on a whim, Li Yu looked in the direction where they had killed the tiger.

In their haste earlier, they had chopped off the tiger's heads and didn't bother with the carcasses.

At this look, Li Yu's pupils instantly dilated.

The tiger's corpse... was gone!

Li Yu quickly said to everyone, "Did any of you deal with that tiger's corpse after I went back to the vehicle?"

Lao Xie's voice came from the intercom: "What?! We didn't touch it."

"No, I went straight to get the gun."

"Me too," Dapao said.

"We all got in the car directly, but we did say we should hurry, right?"

"I was even thinking about the tiger earlier, that it was a normal one. I've never eaten tiger meat in my life, and I thought it was a pity just now. Tsk tsk," Lao Xie said.

"The tiger's corpse is gone," Li Yu announced shockingly.

Everyone hastily looked in that direction.

Hiss~

Hiss~

Hiss~

Everyone drew in a sharp breath of cold air, making the cold winter feel even colder.

The tiger's corpse was clearly here a while ago, and now there was only blood on the ground, and the tiger's corpse had vanished.

What was going on? Confusion flashed through everyone's minds, but there was more fear.

In this icy and snowy world, they had not seen any other living people besides themselves.

Now it was just them, and they hadn't touched the corpse.

So, who did?
