Chapter 17: There’s no Point in Being Anxious

“Can’t we get out?” The female customer from last night looked haggard. She was not used to sleep in unfamiliar face and the earthquake last night made her unable to sleep well.

Now that it was already morning and she couldn’t bear to sleep again, she simply asked the two people who were also trapped here.

Oh wrong, there were three people.

But the last one was a young girl and she didn’t think the other party would be able to help her get out of this place. It would be better to rely on these two strong men if she truly wanted to get out.

“We can try to move the table away by working together, but there’s no guarantee,” the employee said calmly, not that bothered with the fact that they couldn’t get out of this supermarket.

“Let’s try to move it slightly to this side. As long as we can open up a path enough for one to two people, it would be enough.” The security guard pointed in one direction.

“Oh.”

The two people worked hard together and Yu Shi Lan came after she had finished her cultivation and took Xiao Mao to take a large amount of dried fish. This cat was really greedy, but thankfully she didn’t ask Yu Shi Lan to hunt demonic beast like before.

Otherwise, Yu Shi Lan would have to give up.

Because she couldn’t find any in the current world.

When she came closer, the two people had already stopped moving the things around and was currently resting.

“I want to get out!” The female customer almost yelled in anger as she watched the two people worked for hours but the path was not enough to let the men passed and only she could possibly come out.

“Miss, if you’re in such a hurry, you can try to get out first. We’ll come out later,” the supermarket employee said in laidback manner.

“You’re so easy going.”

“There’s no point in being so anxious.” The supermarket employee shrugged. “If I’m being so impatient, I’ll not get anything and even possibly hurt myself. It’s better to enjoy my life and being stuck in the supermarket is not a bad thing.”

He glanced at the large amount of resources there and felt that even if he were to stay here for a month, it would be nothing much.

“Hmm, right.” The security guard also nodded and then went to take some food to eat.

Anyway, they didn’t have to pay right now, so he better take the advantage to bring some resources.

The female customer originally wanted to leave right away. But after she heard their words, she quickly packed some food and other resources away in a backpack before she went out.

While these three people were busy selecting resources, Yu Shi Lan had already slipped out through the path that has been opened.

“Meow?” <Do you want to get out of here now? The place outside might not be any better than the supermarket>

Xiao Mao glanced out and saw that there were actually a lot of corpses crushed in this mall. They failed to come out at the last moment and then got crushed to their death.

“Huh… the situation here is worse than what I thought before.” Yu Shi Lan saw the inside and then looked out.

The outer wall was intact but the inside was not that well preserved.

No wonder she thought that she would be safe if she stayed here…

Well, she still has some luck because the exit path was still there.

“Meow?” <Yu Shi Lan? You haven’t answered my question.>

“No.” Yu Shi Lan shook her head. “I’ll stay here for a while until the soldiers come to pick up the survivors. Going out now is the same as inviting troubles.”

Her weak body definitely couldn’t survive if she has to fight against others. And there were some things in her hand that she couldn’t hand over to others.

It would be better to be save than sorry.

So Yu Shi Lan will stay in this supermarket temporarily until she was strong enough to go out on her own or the soldiers came to pick up people to the temporary base.

The temporary base was the location where most people gathered and it was built by the officials. It could also be said to be safest place in the entire area, especially if Yu Shi Lan considered what would happen later in the future.
