Apocalypse Shuttle Journey

Chapter 1379 Zombie Siege Part 5

So Jiang Lin nodded and said to Jiang Mu, "You look very tired."

After bending down and massaging his legs, Jiang Mu said to Jiang Lin, "Who says otherwise? When have I ever walked such a long distance?"

Liu Lin and Jiang Xin, who were standing next to her, nodded in agreement.

Ma Ruoyan noticed that Jiang Mu was looking at his backpack and nudged Jiang Lin's side with her elbow.

When Jiang Lin looked over, Ma Ruoyan gave him a look.

Upon receiving Ma Ruoyan's glance, Jiang Lin immediately understood and coughed a few times: "Cough cough cough, cough cough cough."

The coughs grew louder with each one.

Seeing that Jiang Mu's family seemed not to have heard anything.

Ma Ruoyan had no choice but to reach out and pat Jiang Lin's back, while speaking somewhat loudly, "Hey, Jiang Lin, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Lin then spoke with some difficulty, "Perhaps we were thirsty from the journey..."

Upon hearing this, Ma Ruoyan covered her mouth with her other hand and exclaimed, "Oh no, what should we do?"

After speaking, Ma Ruoyan looked at Jiang Mu and said, "He's still your brother, so please help him out."

Jiang Mu, who hadn't heard a cough, was slightly dumbfounded after hearing Ma Ruoyan's words.

He just wanted to stick together with Jiang Lin's family for mutual support; he didn't want to offer any real help.

After all, along the way, Jiang Mu's family had felt countless covetous glances.

Those eyes were truly terrifying.

So when they saw Jiang Lin, Jiang Mu and the others walked over without hesitation.

Liu Lin, who was standing next to Ma Ruoyan, said, "How can we help? We don't have any medicine."

Upon hearing Liu Lin's words, Jiang Mu quickly chimed in, "Yes, we don't have any medicine either."

Ma Ruoyan rolled her eyes in secret, then said bluntly to Jiang Mu and Liu Lin, "Oh dear, your brother is so thirsty, give him a bottle of water."

Jiang Mu and Liu Lin exchanged a glance after hearing Ma Ruoyan's words, both understanding the meaning behind each other's eyes.

That's Ma Ruoyan, she's after their water and food!

After all, if they've got their sights set on water, how far away can food be?

After thinking about this, Liu Lin gave Jiang Mu a look, saying, "Your relatives are your own problem to solve."

After receiving Liu Lin's look, Jiang Mu remained silent for a moment before speaking to Ma Ruoyan, "Sister-in-law, we have no water."

Jiang Mu was lying, and Ma Ruoyan and Jiang Lin also knew that Jiang Mu was lying.

Jiang Mu was betting that Ma Ruoyan and Jiang Lin wouldn't dare to look through his backpack.

Upon hearing Jiang Mu's words, Liu Lin slightly turned her body, blocking Ma Ruoyan and Jiang Lin's view of the backpack.

Not to mention the relationship between the two families, which isn't good.

Even if they have a good relationship, Liu Lin couldn't bring herself to give away the food for nothing in this situation.

Moreover, they don't have much food.

After all, who had a hoarding habit before the zombie outbreak? At least their family didn't.

Fortunately, Jiang Xin loves snacks, so they were able to have a little bit of these and carry them with them.

They initially felt that their family didn't have enough food, but after comparing it to Jiang Lin's family, Liu Lin realized she should be content.

Compared to the abundance of food, which is far away and out of sight, the situation at home is much better.

Ma Ruoyan's skin is indeed not that thick.

So after hearing Jiang Mu and Liu Lin's words, even though Ma Ruoyan knew that the backpack contained either food or water, since it was bulging.

At a time like this, would anyone bring something they don't need? That's obviously impossible.

Even knowing this, Ma Ruoyan really couldn't say anything.

Ma Ruoyan swallowed, her throat feeling dry, and whispered to Jiang Lin, "These are your relatives."

Jiang Lin hadn't expected that Jiang Mu and Liu Lin could be so hard-hearted.

After all, I had been coughing so hard that I was out of breath.

Jiang Lin, somewhat annoyed, said to Jiang Mu, "Don't lie through your teeth!"

Just as Jiang Lin finished speaking, two footsteps approached.

Ma Ruoyan turned her head and saw that the people walking over were Jiang Cong and Jiang Qing.

The moment Ma Ruoyan saw Jiang Qing, her eyes flickered.

But when she saw the food and water in Jiang Qing and Jiang Cong's hands, Ma Ruoyan suppressed the thoughts that were rising in her mind.

Ma Ruoyan reached out and tugged at Jiang Lin's sleeve before saying, "Let's not argue with them anymore. Xiao Cong and Xiao Qing are back."

Jiang Lin was still somewhat puzzled after hearing this.

But when Jiang Lin turned his head and saw what Jiang Qing and Jiang Cong were holding, he understood.

Then Jiang Lin said with some sadness, "It's better to rely on yourself than on others. What good are brothers?"

Jiang Cong excitedly said, "Mom and Dad, my sister and I found a lot of things!"

It's a pity you didn't come with us; otherwise, the gains would have been even greater.

Upon hearing this, Ma Ruoyan asked curiously, "Why?"

Jiang Cong immediately said, "We hadn't been looking for long when other people squeezed in and pushed my sister and me apart."

While Jiang Cong was speaking, Jiang Qing silently watched Jiang Mu and the other two.

At this moment, Jiang Qing's lips were no longer dry.

The moment Jiang Qing found the water, she felt as if she had discovered a treasure.

Jiang Qing unscrewed the bottle cap and gulped down a large mouthful of water. She only stopped drinking after the thirst in her mouth subsided.

After Jiang Mu and the other two felt Jiang Qing's gaze, Liu Lin saw the food and bottled water in Jiang Qing's hands. Her eyes lit up, and she walked up to Jiang Qing and said, "What a good daughter of yours! You actually found so much food and water."

As she spoke, Liu Lin reached out to take the food and water from Jiang Qing's hand.

The next second, seeing Liu Lin's actions, Jiang Qing put her hands behind her back, along with the food and water.

Upon hearing Liu Lin's words, Jiang Lin and Ma Ruoyan's faces immediately darkened.

Ma Ruoyan immediately retorted without hesitation, "Have you no shame? Jiang Qing is my daughter!"

Liu Lin said without any hesitation, "Everyone knows who Jiang Qing's daughter is, so don't lie to yourself."

Jiang Lin then said to Jiang Mu, "Quickly, pull your wife away."

Jiang Mu couldn't help but mutter, "But... Jiang Qing is my daughter."

Upon hearing Jiang Mu's words, Jiang Lin flew into a rage, raised his fist, and said to Jiang Mu, "If you don't leave, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Jiang Mu glanced at Jiang Lin's fist, which was as big as a sandbag, weighed the pros and cons, and then said to Liu Lin, "Oh, wife, let's go."

After hearing this, Liu Lin rolled her eyes at Ma Ruoyan before turning around and going back.

When Liu Lin walked up to Jiang Xin, she said to Jiang Xin, "Why don't you learn from your sister?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin pursed her lips and said, "The sister you're talking about, is it Jiang Meng, or someone else?"

Liu Lin immediately retorted angrily, "Why are you bringing up that dead man!"

Jiang Xin looked at Liu Lin and said, "If you hadn't brought it up, I wouldn't have either."

From a young age, everyone compares them; almost no child escapes this.

Even now, her mother still compares her to Jiang Qing, which naturally makes Jiang Xin unhappy.

Upon hearing this, Liu Lin shook her head and said, "The child is grown up, and it's really impossible to control him."

After Jiang Lin saw that Jiang Mu and the other two had left, he turned to Jiang Cong and Jiang Qing and said, "You guys are really great."

After speaking, Jiang Lin naturally picked up a bottle of water, unscrewed the cap, and started gulping it down.

The same applies to Ma Ruoyan.

Jiang Cong smiled and said to Jiang Qing, "Sister, don't we look like heroes?"

After hearing this, Jiang Qing looked at Jiang Cong with a complicated expression before saying, "It looks like it, doesn't it?"

As it got later and later, it was time for everyone to rest. After all, we are all human, and after walking all day, we were all tired.

After Jiang Meng finished the last sip of her milk tea, she went to the restroom, put on a mask, and got off the bus.

Because Jiang Meng's movements were very subtle, almost no one noticed them.

Jiang Meng stood next to the RV, looked around, and quickly chose a target.

It was a family of four, consisting of a man and a woman (two adults), a child, and an infant.

This is Jiang Meng's carefully chosen target.

Jiang Meng walked up to the man and woman and said, "I have a business opportunity. Would you like to do it?"

The sudden sound startled the two of them.

I saw a faint figure standing in front of me.

The man, not daring to make a move, immediately stepped in front of the woman and child, and asked Jiang Meng, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

Jiang Meng: "Does that matter? I have a business deal. If you don't do it, I'll go find someone else."

After speaking, Jiang Meng looked up and around. There were quite a lot of people here.

After hearing Jiang Meng's words, the man, though rationally telling him he shouldn't believe her, was still deeply troubled.

But the man couldn't help but ask, "What kind of business is it? What's the reward?"

Upon hearing this, the woman behind couldn't help but reach out and tug at the man's clothes.

The message conveyed seems to be a warning for men to consider carefully.

Jiang Meng then said, "Go teach that family a lesson."

After speaking, Jiang Meng pointed in a direction to the man, which was where Jiang Lin's family was resting: "Beat each of them up, and this food is yours."

The man looked in the direction Jiang Meng was pointing.

To be honest, it's really hard to see clearly in the dark.

But at times like these, no one dares to trust anyone else; everyone is extremely cautious.

Therefore, when people sleep at night, they deliberately choose places that are far away from other people.

So even if they don't see each other very often, as long as they go there, the man will know who Jiang Meng is going to teach a lesson to.

But what about this food? Upon hearing this, the man followed the sound, looked down, and saw a bottle of water and some food.

These are all things that our family needs!

This was the place he had prepared to sleep, and the man knew, of course, that there had been no food in this place before.

If there were food, how could I possibly let it go?

So where did these foods come from?

The man withdrew his gaze from the food and, with some difficulty, spoke to Jiang Meng, "What will happen if I take the food... and don't do the job?"

Towards the end, the man vaguely indicated that he wanted to make a move against Jiang Meng.

But a sliver of reason held the man back; after all, the appearance of this food was too suspicious.

Upon hearing the man's words, Jiang Meng smiled indifferently before saying to him, "You wouldn't want to know."

The gun was immediately pressed against the man's chest.

Even in the darkness, at such close range, the man could still see what was pressed against his chest.

That's clearly a gun, but is it a real gun?

Just as the man was thinking this, a gasp came from behind him.

The man quickly reassured her, "Xiaoyun, it's alright, don't wake the children."

So the woman behind the man was called Xiaoyun, Jiang Meng thought to herself.

After taking a few deep breaths, Xiaoyun seemed much better than before, but she still looked at Jiang Meng with a wary expression.

As the man looked at the gun in front of him, an image involuntarily flashed into his mind.

On a street, blood was everywhere, the stench of blood was overwhelming, and the ground was almost littered with corpses, many with bullet holes in their heads...

This was the first time the man had seen a gun since the convoy left. What about what happened on the road? Thinking of this, the man completely suppressed his ulterior motives.

After a moment of silence, the man said to Jiang Meng, "You have a gun, isn't it easy to deal with them?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Meng chuckled before speaking to the man, "What's the point of dying so easily? You should torture him more."

Jiang Meng made no attempt to conceal her purpose, and didn't care at all what those who heard her would think.

Upon hearing Jiang Meng's words, the man gasped in shock, wondering how those people had offended her.

After all, the other party had a gun; killing him would be too easy.

The man glanced at the food and water on the ground, then said to Jiang Meng, "Okay, I promise you."

Jiang Meng nodded and said, "There are four of them."

After hearing this, the man was about to say something to Jiang Meng.

All that could be seen was Jiang Meng's retreating figure as she turned and left.

Jiang Meng made no attempt to conceal her whereabouts.

Then the man saw Jiang Meng swagger into the RV.

Many people have a deep impression of this RV, including himself!

After all, this RV was in such good condition that no one who remembered it dared to mess with it.
