Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Feeling somewhat awkward and embarrassed, Qingyang left the bathroom, and when he returned to the dormitory, only Hua Qian was in the room.

Qingyang, dressed in the clothes He Chao gave him, felt significantly more relaxed after the bath.

He sat on the bed next to Hua Qian, staring blankly at the moonlight outside.

He inexplicably recalled the times when his master was around.

Back then, the master always scolded him for being stupid, but both senior brothers took good care of him.

Life on the mountain was simple yet beautiful, as if every day was a repeat, as if time passed quickly and yet slowly.

In the blink of an eye, he had grown up on the mountain.

Sigh—

Qingyang let out a slow breath, then sat cross-legged on the bed and began his evening practice.

The later arrivals, Liu Pengfei and Dongdongdong, saw Qingyang’s actions and found them a bit odd, but they did not disturb him.

The night was silent, and time flowed like water.

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn.

Qingyang opened his eyes to see Hua Qian getting up.

Hua Qian shook his head with a smile and said in a low voice, ”I’m getting old, can’t sleep for long.”

Qingyang nodded and remained silent. In two hours, he would enter the Inner City to perform acupuncture on Li Yu’s Grandpa.

.......

In the morning.

Qingyang took his silver needles and followed He Chao into the Inner City.

There was always someone taking care of Grandpa in the medical room. When they heard Qingyang was coming for acupuncture, Li Yu hurried over as well.

In the medical room, Qingyang performed acupuncture once again. Just like the last time, Qingyang broke into a sweat after finishing the acupuncture.

Li Yuan, who had been staying in the medical room, saw him sweating and quickly ran to the water dispenser to pour him a glass of water and handed it over.

”Thank you.” Qingyang took the water and expressed his gratitude.

Then he turned to Li Yu’s Grandpa and asked, ”You should be feeling better now, right?”

Grandpa’s complexion was visibly better than before, and his head no longer felt as heavy. He laughed and grabbed Qingyang’s hand, saying, ”Thanks to you, Daoist Qingyang, I feel much better, hahaha.”

His hearty laughter greatly lightened the atmosphere in the medical room.

Li Yu, seeing this scene, felt quite pleased.

Gradually, he left the medical room.

Just this morning, he received news from Old Bi. Old Bi reported that the typhoon had diminished compared to before and might be over by tomorrow.

The bad news was that there were many zombies inside Oil City, and their food supplies were running low. The crucial issue was that the water was getting higher, reaching knee height.

If they opened the doors now, since the water level outside the house was even higher, once the doors and windows were opened, the water outside would likely wash the zombies in all at once due to the pressure difference.

The house was already cramped, and such a large number of zombies rushing in at once would be very troublesome.

It could potentially lead to casualties, which was foreseeable.

They were huddled inside the house like turtles in a shell.

If they poked their heads out of the shell, they would face great danger.

Actually, this situation was caused by multiple factors.

Previously in Oil City, even though there was heavy rain during the storm, there were no floods back then.

This was because, at that time, they could still move around in Oil City, and even if the drainage outlets outside the city were blocked, they could unblock them.

But now, Old Bi and the others were hiding inside the house, with windows and doors nailed shut; outside were zombies blown in by the typhoon, making it impossible for them to go out and clear the blocked drainage outlets during the storm.

At this point, the wall of Oil City, which had been reinforced to be taller and more sealed, had become a dam for holding water, much to Old Bi and the others’ frustration.

After learning this news, Li Yu comforted Old Bi and scheduled personnel deployment the next morning to assist.

At that time, people will help from outside to attract some zombies away from their building, and then they could seize the chance to open the door.

Old Bi nearly cried when he heard this news.

It’s been really tough.

After leaving the medical room, Li Yu was contemplating who should be sent for support on this trip.

The number of people he could choose from was quite limited. Besides Third Uncle and his few comrades, only Luo and four others in the base could fly a helicopter.

After careful consideration, Li Yu originally intended to send Luo, but felt it might not be very safe.

After all, the helicopter could carry only so much weight; with more people onboard, less food could be loaded by several tons.

More importantly, after arriving, they had to help Old Bi and the others lure the zombies away.

Thus, Li Yu decided to go find Third Uncle.

Third Uncle is reliable!

Third Uncle happened to be at Mountain Pond at the time, checking on the progress there.

Walking through the Inner City, after two days of cleanup, the mess on the ground was gone, and the roads had become much cleaner.

The path to the mountain had also been cleared.

Yesterday, after the incident with Li Yu’s Grandpa, Li Yu was very frustrated and had Old Lv and the others quickly clear the path up the mountain.

Mountain Pond.

Li Yu found Third Uncle, who was eating a tomato while shouting at Lai Dongsheng on the excavator.

”Dongsheng, to the right, yes, a bit to the right. Now it’s perfect.”

”Third Uncle.”

Li Yu called. Third Uncle, hearing this, looked over to Li Yu’s side.

”Xiao Yu, what’s up? Is your Grandpa feeling better? I heard yesterday that Qingyang’s acupuncture was very effective,” Third Uncle said, putting down the tomato he was about to eat.
