Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Too Much Meat

However, this time, the three of them didn’t bother anyone else. They had realized that helping people wasn’t some noble thing at the moment.

When they found out that there were survivors in the supermarket, as normal people, their first thought was to save those people and let them go home to find their loved ones.

Seeing that they had been blocked by zombies and there was no network connection so they couldn’t communicate with their families, the three had thought that they would rescue them and then even help them find good vehicles that could get them home.

Who would have thought that their good intentions were fed to the dogs? Those people were not grateful at all.

Even before they could state their intention of helping them go home, they had already started making things difficult for them and blocking them from taking some supplies from the supermarket.

Even if they were Saint Teresa, they wouldn’t help such people. They could continue to struggle there and eat all the food in the supermarket.

Leng Pan, having read a few apocalypse novels, knew that those people were united at the moment because the supermarket was still filled to the brim with supplies.

However, after a few months, I went through the supplies. When only a small portion is left, those same people would start to turn against each other and kill each other just to save a sip of water.

When the supplies ran out completely, they would turn to cannibalism just to survive. Thus, she felt that it was better not to save such people.

If you make a mistake and save a future enemy, where would they go to cry? So, when they found out that there were survivors in the office building of the slaughterhouse, they didn’t even entertain the thought of saving them.

Lu Zhen had his brother survey the entire factory and determine where they could find meat so that he could drive there directly.

Lu Tao then used his supervision and soon found a huge cold storage unit.

“Drive straight to the low buildings at the back. It’s a cold storage and seems to have a lot of meat inside.” Lu Tao said.

Lu Zhen then continued to drive following his brother’s instructions.

“Can you tell if the cold storage is still working, or if there is no power to run it, and all the meat inside has become rotten?” Leng Pan asked.

She wasn’t trying to pour cold water on their enthusiasm but that wasn’t a situation that couldn’t happen. After all, some areas of the country had lost power on the first day of the apocalypse when the meteorites fell from the sky and destroyed most of the power lines.

Of course, with the world now being the playground of the flesh-eating monsters, the power company employees couldn’t go out to fix the broken power lines and exploded transformers.

Therefore, it would not be a surprise if the area where the slaughterhouse was had been affected by the disaster, and power went out.

“I think there is still power and the cold storage is still working since I saw lit light bulbs in some of the office rooms.” Lu Tao replied to his sister-in-law’s speculations.

“That’s good. When we get there, let’s just take as much as we can. We will find a way to freeze the meat for as long as possible.

We don’t know if we will find healthy animals to slaughter for meat in the future, so, it’s better to take as much as we can.” Leng Pan suggested as she thought of the scene her mother-in-law kept seeing when she used her superpower.

She believed that the next disaster that would happen after the falling meteorites would be the extreme cold. And judging by the description they got from their mother, it was obvious that it wouldn’t be a simple extreme cold of minus forty degrees like the ones described in many apocalypse novels.

It might go past -50°. In that case, they would also need to drink a lot of soup to keep warm. Thus, Leng Pan intended to take as much meat as possible.

In fact, apart from filling the rest of the space in the truck with meat, she also planned to add more meat in the meat section in her special warehouse inside the jade bangle space.

When the truck stopped outside the cold storage, the three got out of the truck and walked forward. The mist barrier surrounding the truck parted and a path appeared before them.

The rest of the truck remained surrounded by the mist. As they walked towards the door of the cold storage, the path behind them disappeared and the truck was covered completely again.

The heavy door was locked, but obviously, that wasn’t an obstacle for the three of them.

Instead of letting Lu Zhen burn the door, Leng Pan took the initiative to form a water blade and sliced through the lock. In this way, when they leave after taking the meat they need, they can still close the door to prevent warm air from filling the cold room.

Even though Leng Pan planned to take more meat into her space bangle, she couldn’t take everything as that would arouse suspicions from her brother-in-law and anyone who might come later.

You never know if they have a way of figuring out who was there, so, it was better to be cautious.

When the door opened and the three walked in and closed the door behind them, they were surprised by the large number of slaughtered cows, goats, lambs, pigs, and even poultry and rabbits.

These animals were hanging from the ceiling and one just needed to take them down for transportation.

“How are we going to transport them like this?” Lu Tao wondered aloud.

“We can cut them into manageable sizes before loading them into the truck. I remember that I put some garbage bags I found in the grocery store in one of the carts Ah Zhen was moving vegetables with.

Are they still there?” Leng Pan asked as she thought of the large pile of plastic garbage bags she had found and decided to take with her.

“Mmm … they are there. What do you want them for?”

“Cut the meat into smaller portions and put them inside the garbage bags for easy transportation.” She answered immediately.

“Sister-in-law, that’s a great idea. That way, we don’t have to worry about where to put the meat and can also take more.

Moreover, we can put them in the bags depending on the type of meat.

This way, we can also take every type of animal meat.” Lu Tao was overjoyed due to Leng Pan’s suggestion.

He was reluctant to carry little meat because they had no means to transport it.

He wished they could fill the whole truck with meat, but he was also aware that the remaining space could carry meat that would feed their family for months.

“I’ll go get the bags, Baby, start cutting the meat, and put them in separate piles. I’ll start moving them in a while.” Lu Zhen said as he kissed his wife on her forehead and turned to head out to look for the garbage bags in the truck.
