Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse

If it weren't for him always wearing a mask later on, he probably would have died a hundred times over!0

"Hey, who's that over there?" Yun Xiaoxiao's gaze suddenly swept past Nie Yizhou and focused on something behind him.0

Sure enough, his attention was drawn away.0

As he turned his head to look, the corner of Yun Xiaoxiao's lips curled into a mischievous smile.0

She whipped out a green vine and lashed it at him.0

"Ow!" Nie Yizhou yelped, jumping up and rubbing his backside with both hands.0

His antics resembled a monkey leaping about, both comical and ridiculous.0

Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh at the sight.0

She hadn't really intended to hurt him, but rather felt he was being cheeky and deserved a bit of comeuppance.0

His behavior was the kind that would make anyone want to give him a good whack!0

Seeing Yun Xiaoxiao laugh, Nie Yizhou straightened up, holding his waist, and joined in the laughter.0

"You little devil, you really don't pull your punches, do you?"0

As he spoke, the smile faded from his face. He pointed behind Yun Xiaoxiao, his expression turning to horror.0

"Oh no, we made too much noise. We've attracted a horde of zombies!"0

Yun Xiaoxiao tilted her chin up.0

"Funny coincidence, there are some behind you too."0

At that moment, large groups of zombies were moving towards them from both sides of the street.0

They were like the cream filling in an Oreo cookie, about to be completely surrounded.0

She realized that nothing good ever seemed to happen when she was with this guy!0

"Hey kid, want something tasty to eat?" Nie Yizhou asked with a grin.0

Yun Xiaoxiao looked up at him quizzically.0

What did he mean by that?0

"Come on, big brother will treat you to a feast."0

Nie Yizhou placed his hand on Yun Xiaoxiao's shoulder.0

Yun Xiaoxiao understood that he probably intended to take her away from there, so she didn't resist.0

But after several seconds, they remained rooted to the spot, not moving an inch!0

Yun Xiaoxiao: ......0

She rolled her eyes and gave him a sidelong glance, exasperated.0

"Can you actually do anything or not?"0

Nie Yizhou was also getting anxious, sweat beading on his forehead.0

"Don't panic, don't panic. This thing works on and off. Let's hang in there a bit longer, it should kick in any moment now."0

Yun Xiaoxiao silently cursed the heavens.0

What a complete liability this guy was!0

She drew out her spear, preparing for battle.0

Soon, the first zombie came running towards them.0

"Kid, you have to protect me! I can't lift a finger, I'm as delicate as a flower and can't handle even the slightest gust of wind or drop of rain."0

Nie Yizhou hid behind Yun Xiaoxiao, acting like a shy maiden.0

Yun Xiaoxiao nearly exhausted her lifetime supply of eye-rolls.0

What terrible sin had she committed in her past life to deserve encountering such an oddball in this one?0

Just as the zombie was about to pounce and Yun Xiaoxiao prepared to fight, a large hand suddenly landed on her shoulder.0

The next second, she felt the world spinning, her head dizzy.0

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself inside a building.0

To be precise, on the sixth floor of an office building.0

It was clear this was an office building because the entire area was filled with computer desks, chairs, and office equipment.0

But apart from these, as far as the eye could see, there were all kinds of food, drinks, clothes, shoes, blankets, and other daily necessities piled up everywhere.0

Judging by the chaotic arrangement, it was obvious these items had been brought in bit by bit over time.0

"Come on, take whatever catches your fancy. It's all big brother's stuff, help yourself to the food and anything else you need."0

Nie Yizhou made a grand sweeping gesture with his hand, giving off the air of a generous host offering up his private fish pond for others to freely enjoy.0

"Did you bring all this here yourself, piece by piece?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked.0

Nie Yizhou replied, "Of course. Pretty impressive, right? While others are going hungry, your big brother here has all these supplies stockpiled."0

"Mm, very impressive," Yun Xiaoxiao agreed, her tone clearly indifferent.0

"Here, have this cola-flavored jelly."0

Nie Yizhou magnanimously handed Yun Xiaoxiao a bag of jelly.0

"This is my absolute favorite. I'm giving it all to you, aren't I generous?"0

"You go ahead and eat it. I'm not really a fan of jelly," Yun Xiaoxiao said, handing it back.0

Nie Yizhou was surprised. "Jelly is so delicious, how can you not like it?"0

Aren't all kids supposed to love jelly?0

"May I ask why?"0

Yun Xiaoxiao explained, "It's all sticky and gooey. At first glance, it looks just like zombie brains. The sight of it kills my appetite."0

Nie Yizhou: ......0

Why on earth did he have to ask that question?0

Great, now he'd lost his appetite too.0

Come to think of it, it really did look similar.0

"Well, choose whatever you like then. With all this food, there must be something you enjoy. Don't be shy with me, if you're being polite it means you don't see me as one of your own."0

"Since when did we become so close?"0

"We might not be now, but we could be in the future. Relationships between people are always changing. We need to take a long-term view and look at things from a developmental perspective. Think big picture."0

Yun Xiaoxiao: ......0

This guy sure knew how to spin things...0

She casually picked up a lollipop, popped it in her mouth, and walked over to the large floor-to-ceiling glass window.0

She gazed down at the scene outside.0

By now, the setting sun had painted the sky red.0

Soft sunlight illuminated the entire city.0

Some of the windows on the towering skyscrapers had been smashed, while others were broken in half, likely the result of plane crashes in the aftermath of the disaster.0

The once bustling streets were now in ruins.0

The ground was littered with shattered glass, carelessly discarded trash, severed limbs, and bodies that had been gnawed beyond recognition.0

Zombies with vacant expressions wandered aimlessly throughout the streets.0

The entire city exuded an atmosphere of desolation and defeat.0

It had only been a little over two months since the apocalypse began, yet this was already the state of things. One couldn't help but sigh at the sight.0

"Ah, when will this nightmare ever end?"0

Nie Yizhou quietly came to stand beside Yun Xiaoxiao.0

As he stared out the window, his usual playful demeanor faded, replaced by a somber expression.0

As the two of them gazed outside, two large trucks turned a corner at an intersection and sped towards the bottom of their building.0

"Bang!"0

The truck in the rear made a sharp braking sound, then lost control and crashed into a streetlight, producing a thunderous noise.0

As soon as the vehicle came to a stop, hundreds, if not thousands, of zombies came sprinting around the corner of the intersection.0

They ran wildly to the front, left, right, and back of the truck, constantly pounding on the windows and doors.0

In just a minute or two, the truck was completely engulfed by the zombie horde.0

"Crash! Crash!"0

The sound of glass being violently shattered rang out repeatedly.0

"Ah!"0

"Help...!"0

Two agonized screams echoed through the empty streets.0

"What's happening?!"0

Nie Yizhou pressed his face against the window, looking down.0

"This is bad! Look below, the two trucks are being attacked by a horde of zombies!"0
