Chapter 1428: Conspicuous Sign
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shao Shuting threw down his tools and strode over. He checked carefully and confirmed that there was oil on the ground. He was overjoyed. “There is! This pipe is not long enough. We have to park the helicopter a little closer.”
There were things stacked upside down and not flat enough for the helicopter to come closer, so they had to be cleaned up.
Then, he dug, pried, and lifted.
After clearing out a piece of land, Jiang Yue got into the helicopter again and started it up. Then, she flew over and landed steadily and accurately on the cleared flat land.
Then, they refueled the helicopter.
The sky was getting dark.
Their vision would be more or less obstructed, which would affect their fastest reaction speed. They could only continue to head East tomorrow morning.
Therefore, after refueling the helicopter, they laid to rest.
Since they had all drunk the water in the s.p.a.ce, they were not tired. In fact, they did not need to rest. However, they were not in a rush, because their vision would be hindered in the dark.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment and took out some food and drinks from her s.p.a.ce. She placed them all on a large stone slab that was as flat as the ground.
Shao Shuting tidied up the equipment.
Xue Yan and Huo Wenqing were busy putting up a conspicuous sign. This abandoned gas station might be useful in the future. It would be easier to find it if it was more conspicuous.
Then, they sat down to eat and drink.
There was a big watermelon that Jiang Yue took out from the storage room in her s.p.a.ce. Previously, apart from rice and wheat, Jiang Yue had also planted a large number of things in the storage room. Seedless watermelons were one of them.
The things that were placed in the storage room would remain the same as when they were placed in the storage room. They were extremely fresh as if they had just been freshly plucked from the farm,
Shao Shuting picked up the big watermelon and smashed it on the edge of the stone slab. Then, the watermelon immediately broke into several large pieces. He placed them on the stone slab again. Whoever wanted to eat them could just pick up a large piece and eat it. He took the biggest piece first and began to chew on it.
Xue Yan took a piece and pa.s.sed it to Jiang Yue. After that, he took the smallest piece of the big piece and started to eat it slowly bite by bite.
His movements were much more refined than Shao Shuting.
The air in the post-apocalyptic world was terrible. If they wanted to have a good rest, it would be best to return to the s.p.a.ce and sleep on the bed in the book. However, once the white door of the s.p.a.ce opened, they would be led back to the same place. They had traveled so far with great difficulty to get here. They could not return to the starting point just because they wanted to rest comfortably.
After eating and drinking their fill, they chatted for a while and looked at the moon and stars in the sky together. Shao Shuting and Huo Wenqing then found a place to sleep.
Shao Shuting was sleeping soundly, and Huo Wenqing’s sleeping posture was also very casual.
Jiang Yue slept on Xue Yan’s shoulder.
Perhaps he was still a little unaccustomed to the air here, so Xue Yan didn’t feel sleepy. Xue Yan carefully took his outer robe and gently wrapped it around Jiang Yue.
After looking at the sleeping Jiang Yue for a while, he raised his head and looked at the moon high up in the sky.
Although the air here was foul and smelly, the moon was still bright and cold.
As he watched, perhaps because it was too quiet, he slowly felt sleepy and fell asleep.
The next day, the four of them woke up at dawn. Jiang Yue took out clean water, towels, and other things from her s.p.a.ce before they began to wash up.
After washing up, it was time for breakfast.
