Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 35 You too

[The protagonist's reaction at the end of the previous chapter was unnatural and unreasonable, so I've made some minor revisions. Readers interested in this chapter can go back and take a quick look, but it won't affect your continued reading. Thank you for your support.]

No matter what, Lu Xian slept very comfortably.

This was the first time he had slept so peacefully and comfortably since coming to this doomsday world.

The soft quilt was softened by his body temperature and fed back to his body, making him fall into a deep sleep without even dreaming.

The shelter was pitch black without power, and with no sunlight coming in, he couldn't tell the difference between day and night.

When he woke up, he listened carefully to the sounds from the bed across from him, confirming that the breathing had changed. After Yao Wei had also woken up, he asked Gouzi, "Gouzi, is it daybreak yet?"

In fact, he was not sure whether the mechanical dog could give him an answer to this question.

In the past, he always used his naked eyes to observe whether it was daybreak or not. He had never asked, nor did he need to ask, the dog this question.

But now, he had to ask Gouzi for help.

Who made him not have a watch?

Fortunately, the dog responded quickly. The mechanical dog that was originally parked beside the bed and turned into a box immediately returned to its original shape, and then light came out of the dog's eyes.

According to the rules that Lu Xian had taught the dog long ago, the dog's eyes would light up. A long light meant "yes", a flash meant "no", and a constant flash meant "unsure", which meant "I can't do it".

Now the light in the dog's eyes was shining brightly, illuminating the entire dormitory. Lu Xian was able to confirm that it was already daytime outside the shelter.

Great, I discovered a new function of the dog.

Yao Wei had also opened her eyes. When illuminated by the light from the dog's eyes, her eyes also reflected light, shining brightly and looking quite different.

She lay on her side on the bed, looking at the dog.

Noticing Lu Xian's gaze, she turned to look at Lu Xian, but did not speak.

Her expression was normal, as if she didn't remember what happened last night or the book she read.

"how do you feel?"

Lu Xian asked.

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded with satisfaction, indicating that she felt very good.

This was also a very different feeling for her, one she had never experienced before.

Lu Xian suddenly thought of a question and asked again: "Do I snore?"

Yao Wei shook her head and actually asked, "What about me?"

Lu Xian laughed: "Of course not, you don't look like a snorer."

Yao Wei retorted, "You too."

Lu Xian was in a good mood: "Thank you for the compliment."

Yao Wei: "You too."

Lu Xian wasn't sure if Yao Wei understood that "thank you" actually meant it was a compliment, but he was still in a good mood.

Not only because of Yao Wei's words, but also because of the current comfortable environment.

"Shall we continue sleeping?"

Lu Xian said, "Anyway, we don't have anything to do in this shelter for the time being."

"it is good."

Yao Wei nodded again, indicating that Lu Xian's suggestion was a good idea.

So Lu Xian ordered the mechanical dog again: "Dog, turn off the lights and take a rest."

The mechanical dog immediately received the command, the light in its eyes went out, and a slight sound was heard in the darkness. Lu Xian knew without looking that the dog had turned into a box again.

continue to sleep.

Lu Xian slept soundly and when he woke up, he suddenly realized that there was no breathing sound next to him.

There wasn't even a slight sound.

He was immediately startled and quickly shouted: "Dog!"

The robot dog quickly transformed back from the box, its eyes lighting up. Lu Xian hurriedly looked towards Yao Wei's bed in the light, only to find the quilt had been pulled back, revealing nothing. On the other bed above him, Yao Wei's other clothes were gone, leaving only her red leather jacket.

It turns out he went out...

Lu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good that he got out, as long as he’s not still lying there and there’s no breathing sound.

Lu Xian put on his clothes, stood up and walked out of the dormitory, and heard the sound of "whoosh" wind coming from not far away.

The sound was sharp and heavy, as if something was beating the air at an extremely fast speed.

He looked in the direction of the scattered light in the dog's eyes when he followed him out, and saw that in the rest area, the table had been moved to the edge at some point, leaving a large empty area in the middle.

Yao Wei stood in the open space, punching or kicking forward one by one.

It turns out he was exercising.

Lu Xian couldn't help but feel curious, so he asked Gouzi to turn on the electricity in the shelter, and then he looked around.

Yao Wei noticed Lu Xian's gaze, but did not stop and continued to punch and kick one after another.

The punches and kicks were so fierce and swift that people couldn't see the movements clearly, and could only see afterimages.

Lu Xian was amazed and was sure that he could not do this, but as he watched, he was still a little disappointed.

"how?"

Yao Wei stopped only then. It seemed that she caught the emotion in Lu Xian's eyes when he was watching, and she felt a little concerned.

Lu Xian laughed and said, "I thought you were going to practice something like the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms or the Desolate Palm. At the very least, it would be Xingyi Tongbei Tai Chi Wing Chun..."

However, what he saw was that Yao Wei was simply punching and kicking, and once she had trained her punches and kicks to be strong and fast enough, she no longer needed any skills.

After all, Yao Wei still relies on the talents of the new human beings and works miracles with great efforts.

It seems that there may not be such a thing as martial arts in this world.

Yao Wei frowned, not quite understanding.

Lu Xian smiled again and said, "It's okay, I'm just talking about some nonsense I've heard in stories before.

"There's no best to these things, so we don't need to care about them."

Think about it, if martial arts really exist and are enough to break the strength limit of new humans, but Yao Wei and I do not possess such abilities, wouldn’t that be bad?

"Oh."

Yao Wei said this but didn't ask any further questions.

She continued to practice, punch, punch, punch, kick, kick, kick...

Lu Xian watched for a while, then followed. Like Yao Wei, he punched out with his fists and legs, using all his strength each time, and trying to break through.

It's time to work hard.

This is no longer the north where I came from, and I see more and more people.

And most of those people are not good people.

From now on, I can no longer be a lazy fish, just traveling and looking for supplies.

Make your body stronger and less likely to get hurt or fall down, so that you can better face the world and keep yourself safer.

"How did you develop your marksmanship?"

He asked while boxing and chatting with Yao Wei.

"Hit people and pick up bullets."

Yao Wei didn't mind talking to Lu Xian. Their bodies were strong enough to support them in keeping their breathing steady while punching with all their strength so as not to get out of breath.

But when Lu Xian heard what Yao Wei said, he fell silent.

It turns out that Yao Wei is so good at shooting a gun because she trained herself on live targets.

And it's not just about practicing with live targets. Yao Wei also needs to be lucky enough to pick up enough bullets for the next time after each victory when shooting at a live target.

Where can I go to learn this?
Although I have good luck, the problem is that I have shot many people, but my shooting skills have not improved.
