Standing on Warehouse Street, Wei Xuan felt absolutely grateful to the two crazies.
The reason was simple: this was a genuine “resource street”.
One enormous warehouse after another, with half-open or fully-open warehouse doors.
There must have been people here before, but they were likely few in number and couldn’t take much with them, or the number of zombies roaming nearby was staggering. As a result, the number of things still left here was equally staggering.
“Oh my god, everything is here!”
If it wasn’t for the fact that everything was here, if it wasn’t for the fact that the street looked relatively clean without stalls, if it wasn’t for the fact that every warehouse had a single variety of goods, Wei Xuan would almost suspect that this was a large wholesale market!
Perhaps many of the goods in T City were actually transferred here?
Wei Xuan spent three hours wandering around here, looking at almost all the warehouses. Today was the second day of his outing and the amazement and excitement in his heart were definitely more than when he saw the warehouse with a large stock of instant rice two days ago.
Because not only did he find various canned fruits that he had been thinking about, but also canned main courses such as braised beef, braised pork, ribs, braised pork belly, roasted eel, and four fresh roasted gluten that could be opened and served as main dishes!
Canned luncheon meat and canned fish were just weak compared to these!
No matter how their taste was, with these items that had a shelf life of at least two years, Wei Xuan could definitely last another two years!
As an absolute carnivore, Wei Xuan almost immediately decided to change the main type of supplies he carried on this trip when he discovered these things. He would of course bring canned fruits, but there was no way he would give up these things!
Although he had collected many varieties of canned food before, he had never seen this type before! Almost all of the canned food piled up in his house so far were various types of luncheon meat, beef, and fish, as well as various flavors of spicy meat sauce.

“Let’s go check out the few rooms over there to see what else is inside, then rest early. We’ll come back here in the morning while it’s still light out to get the stuff. We’ll immediately go back tonight!”
Wei Xuan made up his mind. There were too many supplies here, and he and Du Hang could not take much at once, so he decided to come back here again, even if he needed to. It wasn’t that he was planning to come back for canned food or anything, but there were some good things in the warehouse, like salt, which he could take more of all at once.
Other things might go bad or expire, but salt, a substance that humans must ingest, would be fine even if stored for a long time.
Although Wei Xuan had collected quite a bit, he would never be able to leave this seasoning behind as long as he was alive. Therefore, he decided that he would come back here at least once before becoming a zombie to take some salt back to satisfy his basic needs.
In addition to the dozen or so warehouses dedicated to storing canned goods, there were also warehouses for various types of dried food seasonings, including whole bottles of fermented tofu, pickled vegetables, and whole barrels of oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. In addition to these food-related warehouses, there were also several stores where furniture, appliances, and even clothing and daily necessities were piled up.
Most of the items that Wei Xuan needed had already been collected, so after wandering around the remaining warehouses, he casually picked up two cans of milk powder and two large cans of fruit oatmeal before returning to the corner of the warehouse where he had selected the braised pork canned goods as the main target of this mission and promptly went to sleep.
As the sky began to darken, two figures walked out of one warehouse and sauntered toward another.
While thanking the zombies wandering around the streets carrying backpacks in and out of various warehouses, Wei Xuan disguised himself among them and went around grabbing canned goods until both of their backpacks were filled to the brim.
Meat canned goods accounted for 60 percent, fruit canned goods accounted for 40 percent, and the large jars of milk powder and oatmeal (which were relatively light) were carried by Wei Xuan, while the astonishing amount of fruit canned goods was left for Du Hang to carry.
This was because Du Hang couldn’t speak human language and didn’t have human-like thoughts, so he let Wei Xuan boss him around. Otherwise, if it were a zombie with normal thoughts, they would definitely protest against him carrying the heaviest load of fruit canned goods, which only Wei Xuan could eat.
Without any sense of guilt, Wei Xuan pulled Du Hang eagerly, waiting for nightfall. After the darkness had completely descended, the two of them walked through the streets still full of zombies and made their way back home.
After two nights, Wei Xuan, who had put all the things in their home, was not at all tired and once again dragged Du Hang out after resting for only one day.
This time, among the things they carried back, the ratio of canned fruits and canned meat products was reversed. They went through hardships again and returned home.
After the excitement wore off, Wei Xuan finally felt the soreness on his shoulders and the pain on his feet. Without saying a word, he washed up and immediately went to bed with Du Hang, sleeping until noon the next day.
“It turns out that we really brought back a lot of things.”
Standing in the living room, looking at the “little mountain” piled up to three small hills, Wei Xuan couldn’t help but sigh.
Indeed, he and Du Hang each carried at least one big backpack every time, how much could those backpacks hold?
The number of things they carried naturally was not small.
Moreover, besides that, he would also try his best to use the bags he carried to at least pack two more bags of things. The volume inside those bags was not small either.
It’s just that the weight of those canned goods he carried back the second time was really astonishing. For this reason, he had to take multiple breaks along the way and even had to spend two full nights rushing back home, otherwise, he might have had to delay another day because of it.
It can be seen that Wei Xuan, who is not a zombie, really can’t compare with the real zombie Du Hang in physical strength.
With these things, Wei Xuan doesn’t have to worry for at least a year or two.
He circled around the pile of things twice. The convenient rice would be enough for him to eat until the end of the year, and the canned food with the longest shelf life could last for almost three years. Even if half of the cans were fruits and the other half were meat, eating one can of meat every two days would be enough for him to eat for nearly two years!
After he finished these things, he could still rely on the various kinds of dried meat he collected and dried during the early days of the apocalypse… Short-term life is still something to look forward to.
With these thoughts in mind, Wei Xuan couldn’t help but smile uncontrollably. He bent down and picked up a can of peaches – he had been craving meat before, but now he had started to crave fruits…
There were dried apples and grapes in the house, but those were already considered dried fruits, and their taste was completely different from fresh fruits. Although canned fruits couldn’t compare to fresh ones, they were still better than the dehydrated fruits that he was already tired of eating.
Holding the can of fruit, Wei Xuan had no intention of immediately packing up these three “small mountains”. He placed them in the most conspicuous place, and at a glance, they would make people feel hopeful about the future days. He planned to leave them there for a few more days to enjoy the sight before packing them up.
He walked over to the toolbox and searched for a Phillips screwdriver. After finding it, he walked back to the table. Suddenly, Wei Xuan felt something flickering in the corner of his eye. He turned his head and was stunned for two seconds. Then, he took a step and jumped to the two machines that were placed in the room, which were very annoying and took up a lot of space. He pressed his face tightly against the glass cover.
After staring at the machine for a good while, Wei Xuan, who had been speechless for three minutes, suddenly jumped up, holding a screwdriver in one hand. He jumped in front of Du Hang and vigorously shook his arm, exclaiming: “Sprouted! Sprouted! They have really sprouted!”
In most of the seedling trays that had been silent for a while in the two machines and four planting spaces, most of the seeds had actually sprouted!!!
Perhaps it was because of his bad luck in his previous life that he was reborn, or maybe it was because he had recently become very lucky, but at least that was how it seemed.
Du Hang was becoming more and more human-like, and his two zombie neighbors had also found a way to be slightly useful to him. He had even found Du Hang’s father and managed to bury his mother. Although he had been in a dilemma when they encountered those two lunatics, he just said a few words, and those two people actually reported back with such an important resource point, allowing them to improve their diet.
Although Wei Xuan might have been able to find those two concentrated resource points by himself, going through all the streets and alleys of T City step by step, who knows if the things in those places have already expired or rotted by the time he found them? After all, Wei Xuan didn’t have the luxury of going door-to-door in the city to check out what was in every shop on the street.
So, even if he passed by the warehouse that was convenient for storing rice, he might not even take a glance inside. As for the warehouse district… he would have wandered by there for a long time.
Who made him decide to stay home and not go out after returning home last time? If it wasn’t for those two guys suddenly telling him this news, Wei Xuan would have stayed home until next spring.
And now, something that he had been looking forward to and waiting for a long time had finally, truly happened – the seeds had germinated!!
So the mysterious ❄️ is the appropriate fertilizer for the current plants now.
Thanks for the update
I wonder if feeding plants with zombie nuclei will turn them into mutated plants! 🤔
Sprouts! The power of the ❄️…🤣❤️ Thanks for the update!
