Chapter 42: Fork in the road, breakup
Zhao Jingguo.
Ye Li looked at the name.
One of the most popular names in chat channels these days.
This man claimed to be the director of the Dragon Kingdom Security Bureau.
Every time I come out, I encourage people to help each other and cooperate with each other.
And he always behaves selflessly.
It seemed like he was really thinking about the other survivors.
Ye Li glanced at the number of people in the chat channel.
21113.
Nearly 10,000 people have died these days.
At least two-thirds of them died at the hands of survivors.
In this survival world.
All people are equal, rich or poor, and have no privileges.
No laws, no morals.
Some are just the desire to survive.
And the desires that humans suppress deep in their hearts.
After there was no restraint, everything exploded in an instant.
…
Ye Li kept driving forward.
Until the "dark" prompt sounded again on the screen.
Ye Li stopped the car.
Zhao Lu parked the car next to Ye Li's van.
There is only a passage in the middle for opening the door.
The meal in the evening was very simple.
The unfinished abalone at noon, high-quality elephant meat skewers, and extra rice.
Although it is simple, it is not easy to cook in this situation.
Many people have to watch the time every day, park their cars in a safe place in advance, and light a fire to barbecue.
What came out in the end were all black lumps.
After eating and drinking, the two of them lay down in the car.
I have to say that Ye Li's massage chair is much more comfortable than ordinary car seats.
Zhao Lu unceremoniously took away the little stone monkey's territory.
The angry little stone monkey was chirping in the car.
Finally, Zhao Lu grabbed her into her arms and ravaged her.
"Where did you get this little monkey? It couldn't be from a treasure chest, right?"
Zhao Lu asked curiously.
"Well, it really came out of the treasure chest."
Ye Li nodded.
Although a bit outrageous, it is true.
"I didn't expect that living things could be found in the box. It's really amazing!"
Zhao Lu pinched the little stone monkey's face.
Soft and very elastic.
However, this behavior caused a certain monkey to scream in dissatisfaction.
But the louder it screamed, the harder Zhao Lu pinched it.
In the end, the little stone monkey had no choice but to surrender and lay quietly in Zhao Lu's arms, letting himself be kneaded.
"Can we still go back?"
Suddenly, Zhao Lu asked.
"What?"
Ye Li's attention has been focused on the chat channel.
Silly netizens have a lot of fun.
Even in this environment, there is still no shortage of silly netizens.
"Can we still return to Earth?"
Zhao Lu asked curiously.
"I don't know. Maybe I can only get the answer if I keep walking until the end of this road."
Ye Li shook his head helplessly and looked out the car window.
The road ahead is like an endless black line, extending into darkness with no end in sight.
Zhao Lu was silent for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to speak: "If... we... can really return to Earth, will you... marry me?"
She stared at Ye Li nervously, eager to hear the answer.
"ah?"
A series of question marks appeared on Ye Li's face. He put down the screen in his hand, leaned forward, and looked at Zhao Lu curiously.
Zhao Lu's cheeks instantly blushed, like the gorgeous sunset on the horizon.
She closed her eyes shyly, waiting for Ye Li's response.
However, the moment she closed her eyes, she felt a warm palm gently pat her forehead.
"You don't have a fever. Why are you talking nonsense all of a sudden?"
Ye Li said doubtfully.
"You...have gone too far,"
Zhao Lu opened her eyes, with crystals shining in her eye sockets, and glared at Ye Li angrily.
What's going on with this man?
After all, he is also a big star.
I don’t know how many boys dream of marrying her.
"The relationship between us is just a transaction, don't think too much about it."
Ye Li said coldly.
"You...you are really a cold-blooded and emotionless guy!"
Zhao Lusi said angrily.
"Emotions? Emotions are the most useless things in the world. Only by letting go of your cheap emotions can you become without weaknesses."
Ye Li said seriously.
"snort……"
Zhao Lusi vented all her anger on the little stone monkey in her arms.
Ye Li continued to stare at the chat channel on the screen.
Many people have driven to the water condenser in the past two days.
Many people started shouting about selling water in the chat channel.
However, the therapeutic ointment and anti-night demon serum are still exclusively sold by Ye Li.
Ye Li thought for a while and slightly changed the prices of the healing ointment and anti-night demon serum.
Materials were collected, and at the same time, the car cores from people's hands were also started to be purchased.
This thing is used to upgrade the car. It will only appreciate in value later and is unlikely to depreciate.
Unless the car level reaches the upper limit.
[Ye Li: Good evening everyone, from now on, I will purchase automobile cores. One scrap-grade automobile core is worth twenty common materials and two high-grade materials. Welcome to visit us. 】
"Car core? What is car core"
Some people who have never collected vehicles or seen the core of a car asked curiously.
Someone immediately gave the answer below.
"Car cores can only be obtained by collecting vehicles, and if you want to collect vehicles, you must first make the car an ownerless vehicle."
"In other words, you have to kill people to take the car."
"What? Kill people to take the car?"
"Ye Li, aren't you trying to instigate internal fighting among us?"
"Yes, what is your intention?"
"..."
Ye Li ignored these people.
He had already started to look through private chats.
Time passed by little by little.
In the evening, after the Night Demon attacked, Ye Li asked Zhao Lu to return to his car to rest.
The next day, the two had a simple breakfast and continued to drive.
Less than an hour after walking, there was an intersection on the road ahead of the two.
In addition to the main road in the middle, there is a fork road on each side, extending into the grassland.
"Ding."
[Tip: There will be more surprises in the branch road ahead, but it will also be accompanied by greater dangers. Please drive in with caution. ]
Ye Li stopped the car at the intersection.
Zhao Lu also stopped.
Turned his head and looked at Ye Li.
"Ding."
[Ye Li: Let's break up here. The branch road is too dangerous. You should continue to take the main road. We'll meet again in the future. ]
Looking at the word "break up" in the private message, Zhao Lu's eyes became hazy again.
"Ding."
[You received a transaction request. ]
Zhao Lu clicked to agree.
The screen showed the items that Ye Li had put on the shelf, a Glock pistol, and 100 rounds of 9mm bullets.
Zhao Lu wiped her eyes and looked around.
No danger was found.
She got out of the car directly and came to the door of Ye Li's driver's seat.
