After resting for two more days at home, time flew by quickly, and September was coming to an end. The weather in early October gradually cooled down, but since it had not rained recently, it wasn’t too cold yet. Still, Wei Xuan replaced his cool mat, turned off the electric fan, and took out a thick blanket.
The only thing he couldn’t change was the cold-bodied Du Hang, which was an essential item that he could never replace.
“Food, water, blankets, weapons, two large backpacks.”
Standing in his room, Wei Xuan conducted his final check. Since it was already dark outside, he needed to confirm everything in the room while he could still see clearly. After a simple “breakfast” and a short rest, he could set off.
After confirming that he had not forgotten anything, Wei Xuan quickly ate the food in front of him and fed Du Hang some snowflakes. This time, he planned to go to the old train station first. Once he confirmed that everything there was okay and got what he needed, he could go to the warehouse street next time.
After all, eating only potatoes, a single type of food was not very nutritious, so he could also take a look at what canned food varieties were available over there…
As he thought about this, his eyes wandered around the room, and he didn’t stop feeding Du Hang.
When his gaze fell on the two conspicuous planting machines in the living room, the word “nutrition” suddenly flashed through Wei Xuan’s mind.
“Nutrition?” Wei Xuan’s actions paused. Although he had added nutrients to the water for seedlings, the amount of nutrients added was based on the recommended dosage given by the machine itself.
It’s the end of the world now, and the natural environment has undergone earth-shattering changes. So, is the amount of nutrients in this supplement enough? Or are the nutrients that the seeds need after the end of the world still the same as before?
This thought flashed through Wei Xuan’s mind like lightning, and he was awakened by Du Hang’s actions.
He had already eaten the first snowflake and needed another one. However, Wei Xuan had been holding out his hand without taking any action, so Du Hang touched Wei Xuan’s fingertips with his lips.
“Ah, do you still want snowflakes… snowflakes?”
Seeds, the end of the world, withered plants, snowflakes…
Strange snowflakes have caused earth-shattering changes in humans overnight, turning them into zombies or giving them special abilities.

He wasn’t sure if this method would work, but the seeds in both machines had been soaking for at least half a month, and they were originally going to be thrown away. Isn’t it perfect to use them for experiments?
The crystalline snowflake melted instantly in the water. Wei Xuan didn’t have time to observe the effects of the newly added snowflake in the water at home. But fortunately, although he was going out, he wouldn’t be away for too long, and he would be back home in two or three days at most. Even if he grew any mutated plants during these short two or three days, they wouldn’t be able to harm the whole room overnight, right?
He took a deep breath and collected the remaining snowflakes.
After cleaning the tableware, Wei Xuan and Du Hang put on their equipment and backpacks, taking advantage of the last bit of light before nightfall, they left their home and the residential area.
He had to go get the instant noodles that were supposed to expire soon to improve their meals!
The night was dark, but the stars shone brightly, allowing them to vaguely see things on the street. The moonlight was very convenient for those traveling at this time.
Wei Xuan was one of those who enjoyed this convenience. Du Hang followed closely behind, tied to Wei Xuan with a rope, and the two of them moved toward their destination.
The old station was located southeast of Wei Xuan’s current residence in the residential area, and part of the route coincided with the way to the place where the crazy woman lived.
However, Wei Xuan chose to take a longer route to avoid “accidents” that he did not want to encounter. But when he had walked halfway, he began to wonder to himself,
“Doesn’t another crazy person live nearby?”
Otherwise, how did those two know there was instant rice there?
But then he thought again, maybe not, because the warehouse area was in another direction, and that healing user guy might be living there with his zombie girlfriend.
As for whether these two places are traps… Wei Xuan will definitely do a simple check when he gets there. According to his two encounters with those two, if they could set traps for him… then he deserved to die even if he was so stupid!
Along the way, avoiding various suspected obstacles and sleeping zombies on the ground, when dawn was approaching, Wei Xuan successfully brought Du Hang to their destination.
Instead of going directly to a warehouse, the two of them entered the waiting hall of the old station and waited for daybreak.
Compared to the newly built stations in T City a few years ago, this station is a bit old, but it has not really been discontinued. Only high-speed trains and other trains stop at the new station. Ordinary express and regular trains still stop here. So the waiting hall here is actually quite large, and after the new station was built, this so-called old station has also been renovated, but the area is not as large as the new station.
After the outside became completely light, Wei Xuan first observed the situation in the hall. Compared with the outside, the waiting hall, which was originally built very sturdy, did not suffer much damage. Only some cabinets and chairs were overturned, and the ceiling, stairs, and elevators were all intact.
As the sky became brighter, the zombies that had been wandering in the waiting hall also climbed up from the ground one after another. Many zombies wearing station staff uniforms swayed and walked to the entrance of the station, holding ticket-checking tools in their hands.
Several sanitation workers who worked in the station were also zombies, waving their headless mops and brooms around.
After confirming that the situation in the station was normal, Wei Xuan carefully observed the situation outside.
At this time, the zombies that had “slept” on the street all night also climbed up and wandered around. Several single-story buildings diagonally across from this station had their doors wide open.
“Could it be there?” Standing a little far away, Wei Xuan noticed that the appearance of those few houses was a bit strange. They were not street-facing shops, but they had large doors that almost occupied an entire wall.
So he quickly took out his binoculars and carefully examined the situation over there.
Among the houses, some cardboard boxes could be vaguely seen in one of them, and in another one, there seemed to be not too many things inside, only the corners of some shelves could be seen. In addition, there was a door that was only pushed halfway, and it was impossible to see what was inside.
These three peculiar buildings were the only ones around, so after confirming that there were no other suspicious targets around, Wei Xuan began to examine the nearby buildings.
Taking the experience of being discovered by the fire ability woman last time, this time he ran directly to the second floor of the waiting hall, holding his binoculars to inspect and search. After confirming that even buildings farther away could not see the specific situation here, and no one was found standing at the windows of nearby buildings, he trembled and gathered the courage to put away his things and shook out with Du Hang, imitating the steps of a zombie.
He wanted to wait until midnight before going over, but by then, the sky would be so dark that he couldn’t see what was inside, let alone determine which room had the things he needed.
If he turned on a flashlight in those rooms, it would be more likely to expose his presence than going out now!
But if he waited until it was completely dark and then waited until tomorrow morning to check the things… the time would be delayed too much, which was not worth the loss. So he could only take the risk now.
Under tremendous psychological pressure – from the sequelae caused by the crazy woman last time. Wei Xuan dragged Du Hang all the way to the three places that looked like warehouses.
The first room was the one where he had seen some cardboard boxes from afar. When they reached the door of the room, Wei Xuan could already tell without going in what it was used for – a courier delivery point.
Boxes and bags specially made for express delivery lay around one by one. All the parcels had a label from a certain courier company. Although there might be something they could use, it would require unpacking and inspecting each item. Who knows what they would find after a whole day of rummaging through these things?
There were signs of disturbance in the room, but they were not particularly obvious. A few boxes and bags had been torn apart violently and scattered on the ground. It was probably done by people who had come here before looking for supplies.
However, as Wei Xuan guessed, although there were many things here, every time a package was opened, it was like drawing a lottery. Who would dare to do that in a place surrounded by zombies?
Even Wei Xuan found it troublesome, let alone the ordinary survivors.
So Wei Xuan just took a glance inside and walked towards the next door.
“…so much beer.” The second room, apart from an empty shelf at the entrance, was stacked with rows of boxes of a certain brand of glass bottled beer.
Although this thing was becoming scarcer and scarcer after the apocalypse and fewer and fewer people were willing to use the already scarce food to brew it, at least for now, Wei Xuan’s main goal was not these heavy, space-occupying items.
When they reached the door of the third warehouse because the door was half-open, Wei Xuan could only stoop down and take a quick look inside with the constant fear of being exposed, and then he quickly pulled Du Hang into the door – it was a warehouse for storing instant rice!
This was indeed a warehouse for storing instant rice!
Instant happiness! Hahaha! Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🍚❤️🤣

What’s instant rice?Is it cooked already before packing?🤔 I only know instant oats just add hit water and voila, oatmeal..
Is instant rice like that viet girl eat? It’s in a plastic bag and she just need to boil or I forgot but microwave? Here we’re being bombarded with how wrong we use our utensils and we supposed to have consume a credit card worth of plastic each year then they come up with instant rice that actually not instant? You can literally just use one pot to make rice you boil it wait until the water is mixed with the rice make sure you stir it well don’t let it burnt on the bottom then put the stove fire on low then just wait. Ta-da rice you can eat normally without adding more plastic
