Ch47 - Resting

The area of ​​this home furnishing store is much larger than the one Wei Xuan had been to before, but unfortunately, because of the earthquake, many shelves inside collapsed, and a wall was cracked. The big cracks and rainwater from the previous heavy rains flowed into them along those cracks, soaking and flooding many things in the shop.

Fortunately, Wei Xuan already collected most of the necessities he needs from the previous store. And he found many more from the apartments in his community. So this time, he just looked at the things soaked in water and damaged by the earthquake and felt sorry for them, and then continued wandering around the whole building.

After making a circle, there seems to be nothing Wei Xuan needs… or it should be said, of course, there are things he needs! But there was nothing worth carrying back for that many miles.

Some things can be found in the place where he lives now, or in a shop closer to his home, so why does he need to move them from here?

However, he found some specialty stores in the surrounding small shops, which contained things that he would need in the future—such as some convenient tools for home gardening, such as energy-saving electric heaters and the like. These are all good things, especially supplementary lights for gardening, indoor planting equipment, planting integrated boxes, etc. As long as there is electricity at home, he can also eat fresh crops in winter.

After gathering all these useful things in the shop that sold solar panels, Wei Xuan suddenly sighed with emotion: “With these things, is there still a need to rush to harvest and dry potatoes?” Before, it was because I knew the situation in winter, and I knew that even if there were potatoes in the field outside, it was impossible to get any harvest in winter. But now that I have this equipment, once I can transport all of them back, do I still have to worry about planting vegetables and drying them in the sun?

But if you think about it carefully, although these devices are convenient and easy to use, they take up a lot of space and require a lot of power to maintain a certain temperature in the room. So whether he can use these devices in winter, he really can’t say.

Rather than pinning his hopes on this uncertain possibility, he would rather spend more time preparing in advance, lest he would have no place to regret it when the time comes.

Having figured this out, he transported some of the equipment he could use back to the home furnishing store, and then simply took a nap in Du Hang’s arms—since he was going to act at night, he would have to rest more during the day.

After some time, Du Hang raised his hand and placed it gently on Wei Xuan’s face.

Zombies still have a sense of pain, but they don’t seem to have any sense of touch. Although they can feel that they are hurt by people and foreign objects, unless the damage is big enough to affect their ability to move, it will not cause any impact at all under normal circumstances.

In other words, when human beings are injured, their spirit and mobility will be affected by the pain of the wound and massive blood loss, but unless zombies have broken arms or legs, they will act normally.

But at this time, Du Hang touched Wei Xuan’s face with his fingers as if he had a tactile sensation, and then lifted it quickly. It seems that he was afraid of waking up the sleeping person. After waiting for a while to see that he didn’t wake up, Du Hang gently touched his face again…

Wei Xuan fell asleep quickly, but it seemed that he had only been asleep for a while, and felt that there seemed to be something on his face. As if something was touching him. One touch, another touch… After being ‘harassed’ several times, Wei Xuan waved his hand impatiently in his sleep, as he caught something soft in the mist, he pulled it down and hugged it into his arms,  he could rest now… 

When he woke up, Wei Xuan only felt that there was darkness in front of him, and he blinked his eyes until his brain was completely awake before he remembered – didn’t he want to only sleep until evening? Why is it so dark now?!

Thinking of this, he immediately wanted to sit up straight away but felt that his head had crashed into a huge object that was supposed to be hard but was still somewhat soft…

With a ‘plop’, Du Hang fell directly on the ground Beside Wei Xuan, with the afterglow of the setting sun outside the door, Wei Xuan stared dumbfounded at the person lying beside him, with his body twisted, his face facing the direction of his feet, and one arm stretched straight out. It looks like the move Ultraman makes when he is about to fly into the sky… oh no, this pose seems to be more like Superman. But his body is bent at least ninety degrees, can this posture fly into the sky?

The two pairs of eyes stared straight at each other, in the afterglow of the setting sun.

One pair blinked, while the other pair kept such a straight and unblinking expression.

Wei Xuan raised his hand and rubbed his face: “What the hell is this?” When he woke up, he found his zombie lying on the ground in a strange posture… Wait, he seemed to be pushed by him just now… So what happened just now?

Trying to think back, it seems that after laying in his arms to sleep, I directly used him as a bed. But when I opened my eyes just now, I saw the pitch black… It seemed that his body bent down to block all the light in front of me. So, why on earth is he in a Superman pose?

Wei Xuan doesn’t remember at all that he directly held someone’s arm and hugged it as a pillow. The reason why Du Hang bent down was that Wei Xuan was pulling him. He wanted to make his posture more in line with Wei Xuan’s movements. 

After Wei Xuan confirmed that nothing strange happened in the room, he got up, put this strange incident behind him, and prepared the backpack he needed to carry when going out at night.

Although the volume of solar panels is relatively large, they are relatively long, with acceptable width and thickness, so it is relatively simple to carry.

Before it was completely dark, Wei Xuan quickly stacked ten boards together with the packaging and bundled them together. Although the thickness and weight are very impressive, if Du Hang caries them… it will be easy to take them back.

As for Wei Xuan himself… he tried it and estimated that he could only carry about five sets on his back at most.

No way, who let them be so heavy? One piece weighs nearly twenty catties. Even if his physical strength has increased a lot after the apocalypse, walking back with nearly one hundred catties on his back is still impossible for him.

What’s more, besides carrying this thing, he and Du Hang also need to bring some supporting batteries and other things.

As night fell, the ‘luggage’ of the two was finally packed completely. After considering the road conditions outside, Wei Xuan finally decided to move these things. After all, there are rough roads outside, but there is no place so narrow that two people need to go through it. As long as he pays a little attention, he won’t have to worry about bumping into something.

He put the large backpack containing the battery and other accessories on his chest and the solar panel on his back. After trying a little to confirm that he could support the weight, Wei Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. And after checking the rope between him and Du Hang was tied well, he started to head back. 

The night was dark, and two strange figures walked slowly in the night, from north to south.

If it is seen by people at a distance during the day, then those people will be surprised to find that these two shadows look like two moving crosses from a distance.

But Wei Xuan didn’t have time to think about what he looked like at this time, he just wanted to rush home as quickly as possible. But just think about the long road ahead… Walking in the dark and carrying a heavy load, can he get home before dawn?

But no matter what, he needs to rush back as much as possible. Although there is no problem with storing those things in the solar panel shop, for the time being, God knows what will happen in the future. If some destructive zombie entered by mistake and destroyed everything in the store, then he might not even have the strength to cry.

What’s more, this time he mainly brought back solar panels, and next time he will focus on carrying batteries. Although the thing is not too big, it is really heavy. If he couldn’t get enough storage batteries before winter… once he encountered continuous cloudy and heavy snow, his life this winter would not be so comfortable.
