The Treasures of the Army

While Huan Chu was moving a few oil drums from the warehouse to the gas dispenser to fill up with gasoline, Chen Wenwen had already filled the entire trunk of the Hummer with a shopping cart. Huan Chu looked at the dazzling array of snacks and drinks in the trunk in astonishment, and asked, "Did you empty out the supermarket?" "

Chen Wenwen casually took out a pack of melon seeds from the trunk, leaned against the car door, and started munching on them, saying, "How could that be." What kind of supermarket is this? It's all stuff that's about to expire. It took me a while to pick out these things, and there isn't even any decent beer. "

Your Majesty, this is a roadside gas station convenience store, not the boutique you usually shop at. Do people actually buy such expensive items here? Huan Chu had a black line in his mind, but his hands were rummaging through the pile of items, wanting to see what Chen Wenwen had put back.

Map? Although we already have some, having an extra one wouldn't hurt... Chili sauce? Hmm, adding some...spam to instant noodles? Eating junk food every day is not good... Chocolate? Regular physical activity requires occasional replenishment of calories... and salt? MSG? Soy sauce? Aren't we really fleeing instead of having a picnic...

When Huan Chu pulled out a few fashion magazines from the trunk, he couldn't bear it any longer and said to Chen Wenwen with a bitter expression, "Queen, what are you taking with you?" Are you sure you understand our current situation? "

Chen Wenwen unconsciously snatched the magazine from Huan Chu's hand and said as she flipped through it, "There should be something to pass the time in the car, right?" Besides, who knows what situations we may encounter, maybe it will come in handy! "

Huan Chu pondered for a while, not knowing what other purpose fashion magazines served besides entertaining the queen. Are they used to teach zombies how to dress properly for winter this year? Besides, you will soon be under the protection of the military and the government, so whatever happens ahead will have nothing to do with you.

So, under the eloquent persuasion and reasoning of Huan Chu, Chen Wenwen was finally convinced or perhaps just tired of his nagging, and reached a compromise with Huan Chu to let him go through all the items again and make selections.

After getting permission, Huan Chu ignored the queen's gloomy face and directly threw everything in the car down. He first stuffed five barrels of gasoline into the trunk, then carried out several boxes of instant noodles and juice from the supermarket warehouse and placed them properly. After confirming that the essential items for life were not lacking, he began to slowly sift through the goods selected by Chen Wenwen.

Ten minutes later, the Hummer left a mess behind and disappeared in a cloud of dust. Chen Wenwen sat in the passenger seat, pouting, seemingly very dissatisfied with Huan Chu's final decision. She refused to speak despite Huan Chu's attempts to engage her in conversation, just glaring at him all the way.

Queen Huan Chu looked at Chen Wenwen with her eyes that could speak, sighed helplessly, and took out a magazine from her side, handing it to Chen Wenwen, saying, "Here, it's for you." Isn't it just throwing a few magazines at you? Why so excited? "

Chen Minwen's eyes glowed to take over the elle in her hand, and she couldn't care less about Huanchu's spitting groove, so she looked up carefully. From time to time, her mouth uttered "nice" praise and scornful "tskk" sounds. It seemed to be completely immersed in the latest trendy clothing, throwing everything in reality behind her head.

Huan Chu completely couldn't understand women's pursuit of fashion. Looking at the queen who looked like a little girl, he shook his head and asked, "I just can't figure it out. What's the point of looking at this stuff now?" Even if you see something you like, you can't buy it? "

Chen Wenwen didn't even look up, and asked back, "You otaku guys are always discussing AV actresses online. Even if you have a favorite one, you can't get her anyway, right?" Why do you still keep so much adult content in your hard drive? "

Huan Chu obviously did not expect the queen to have such a fierce response, almost spraying the juice he had just drunk onto the steering wheel. His face showed a look as if he had eaten a fly, remained silent for a long time, and finally decided to use his own unique skill - the art of changing the topic skillfully, avoiding the queen's sharp and profound question.

The queen, on the other hand, seemed bored and responded half-heartedly to various strange questions from Huan Chu. Most of her attention remained on the magazine, often ignoring Huan Chu's questions automatically, and putting on a more professional face than Huan Chu, who fancied himself a "current affairs commentator," as she critiqued each model and their outfits in detail.

Huan Chu, who had been holding the steering wheel all along, seemed unable to bear the sudden loneliness and tried various ways to find a topic with the queen: "I have lived until now and still don't understand what fashion is all about. Can you tell me about it?" "

The queen had just finished her comment on a tall model and glanced at Huan Chu upon hearing the words. Huan Chu was wearing a sky blue assault jacket, a must-have for outdoor sports enthusiasts, and a pair of black special forces military pants from 511. However, there were still a few places stained with the black and red blood of zombies. The pant legs were tucked into the Danner military boots on his feet, and although outdoor attire was common, it looked particularly spirited on Huan Chu. However, in Chen Wenwen's opinion, Huan Chu's outfit can only be considered as "fitting", not to mention being fashionable, it can't even be considered as "good".

The queen shook her head disdainfully and looked at Huan Chu with a sneer, "Do you usually like rock climbing or something?" When the topic was mentioned, Huan Chu appeared somewhat lacking in confidence, and after a moment of silence, he was about to answer when he heard the queen continue, "Wait, aren't you a homebody?" How could someone who enjoys outdoor activities be a homebody? "

Huan Chu would never have the nerve to tell him that this outfit was bought when he was obsessed with cosplay, just to look cool, and he has only worn it two or three times until now. When he first encountered the apocalypse, he was so excited/nervous/excited that he brought out this set of hidden equipment. If he hadn't kept his cool at that moment, he might have brought out the real-life CS sniper rifle he had hidden.

Huan Chu Zheng was at a loss for words, but he saw the queen wave her hand casually and say, "Forget it, forget it. Just by looking at your outfit, I can tell you have nothing to do with fashion at all." You are such a newbie that you can't possibly understand the high-end 'gamer' terms I use. Summer insects cannot communicate with ice, there is nothing for me to say to you. "

It seems that Chen Wenwen enjoys the pleasure of despising Huan Chu. After finishing speaking, she didn't even give Huan Chu a chance to fight back, leaning back on the chair and immersing herself in her own fashion world.

Since graduating from college, apart from work (if you can call it that), Huan Chu has been immersed in various online games and forums. Naturally, he has no understanding of fashion. At most, he can tell from online pictures that this year's girls like purple stockings and other so-called 'trends.' Faced with Chen Wenwen's sarcasm, he is completely unable to retort and can only accept it with frustration.

After a moment, Huan Chu stopped the fierce horse by the roadside. Chen Wenwen thought he couldn't bear his disdain and wanted to stop the car to focus all his energy on arguing with himself. He looked at Huan Chu with a smile that was not a smile, about to speak, but saw Huan Chu pointing outside the car window.

Chen Wenwen turned her head and saw a military goods store in the direction pointed by Huan Chu, with a sign that read in large black letters - Bear Cub Military Supplies. I'm not sure if it's because the shop doesn't maintain it regularly or for some other reason, but the character "熊" is missing four dots at the bottom, the first "宝" character is intact, but the second "宝" character is missing the top part of the character, making it look like "能宝玉军品" instead.

The knowledgeable queen was obviously not daunted by the eerie shop name, and she glanced at the fire axe placed by the car door. The fire axe was not originally designed to be a sharp weapon for decapitation. After multiple intense frictions with bones and flesh, the already dull axe blade became even blunter, with some small notches appearing in some places.

Chen Wenwen quickly realized that Huan Chu did not find a suitable weapon in her house before. Now seeing a military goods store, she decided to try her luck and see if she could find some handy tools. She nodded and picked up the broken water bottle, following Huan Chu out of the car.

Perhaps influenced by the sudden appearance of a bunch of zombies at the gas station before, the two of them no longer had the relaxed demeanor they had before. They were now on guard against the zombies that could appear at any moment, cautiously entering the military store.

Perhaps it was a compensation from the heavens for Huan Chu's continuous bad luck for n days. The cautious duo did not encounter any accidents and easily entered the "Nengbaoyu Military Supplies" twenty meters away. The two of them were obviously disappointed when they first entered the military store, as the small shop did not present the imposing appearance of an American military store as they had imagined. Of course, the two of them have some basic common sense and naturally know that domestic military stores cannot sell firearms. However, the scattered goods in front of them still cannot make them associate it with the words 'military store'.

It seems as if the heavens were playing a joke on the two of them, as this store 'Neng Baoyu Military Supplies' can truly be described as small but well-equipped. Although the shop occupies less than forty square meters, the neatly arranged merchandise is everything you could ask for - casual military uniforms, tactical vests, second-hand military bags, various badges, and even gun holsters ranging from small glocks to large m4s. Although they are of no use to the two at the moment, Chen Wenwen and Huan Chu couldn't help but look around and pick up items in the military store.

After a while, the two of them casually packed their military bags behind them, filled with various military items such as military water bottles, Swiss army knives, and other gadgets. Huanchu even joyfully pinned a US Marine Corps emblem on his chest. If it weren't for Chen Wenwen's reminder, they almost forgot the purpose of their visit.

Huan Chu asked Chen Wenwen to pick up a folding military shovel and then went to the area for selecting knives. Although there are many tools, most of them are short folding knives like military daggers. Although they are useful for people, they are of no use against zombies that won't die unless their heads are cut off. Even if military daggers can draw blood, they are of no use. And the remaining military machetes just don't look like they can chop off a person's head.

Sighing, in line with the principle of not taking white and not taking it, Xuan Chu, who lacked knowledge in this area, picked out a few triangular army thorns and stuffed them in his backpack. He was about to shout Chen Minwen to leave together, but he heard the queen exclaiming, and with a hint of excitement in her voice, she actually disobeyed a few dirty words for a long time: "I x, Xuan Chu! There's a basement here?! "
