Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 6: Precious Vigilance
The lights outside suddenly went out. In order to save electricity, Yao Wei filled the oil barrel with oil, then quickly went to the electrical box to remove the equipment and put it back into her schoolbag.

The light from the mechanical dog in the station suddenly became a little dazzling. However, Lu Xian quickly adapted to it and went over to pick up the tire.

There are three toy motorcycles on the ground, all of the same size and with six tires.

Lu Xian picked it up and checked it under the light of the dog's eyes. It was well preserved and of good quality. It was okay.

At the entrance of the station building, Yao Wei walked in and saw the toy tire in Lu Xian's hand. She looked a little puzzled, but did not ask any questions.

Lu Xian caught a glimpse of Yao Wei's expression through the diffused light from the mechanical dog's eyes and took the initiative to explain: "I plan to try to replace the dog with four tires. What do you think?"

Yao Wei glanced at the tire in Lu Xian's hand, then at the mechanical dog with shining eyes on the ground, and nodded: "Yeah."

Lu Xian sighed and said, "It's a pity that I don't have a screwdriver or wrench, so I can't try to modify it. I can only collect them first and think about it later."

Yao Wei said, "I do."

Lu Xian's eyes lit up: "Thank you very much."

Yao Wei said, "I can use the dog too." Then she stopped talking and went out with the bucket.

Lu Xian looked at Yao Wei's back and smiled slightly. It seemed that this woman had already accepted the fact that she would embark on a journey with him and was indeed not going to break her promise.

After leaving the gas station, Lu Xian asked the mechanical dog to turn off the lights in its eyes.

To survive in this apocalyptic world, both of them have long been accustomed to walking in the dark, being careful and not afraid of stepping into the ditch.

On the contrary, if you walk with the lights on, you might become a target of something in the dark.

Lu Xian noticed that Yao Wei didn't fill up much gasoline, and the iron bucket was probably only half full.

But he could understand the reason.

It is a little easier to carry this way, and even if you fill up a bucket of gas, it is not enough for the car's tank. It is better to take some away first, fill up the tank, and then drive here to fill up.

On the way back, I saw No. 276, No. 275, and No. 274 Jiangyu Road again. I walked past Villa No. 272. It was quiet inside and outside the villa. It seemed that the hyena had not returned.

Even so, Lu Xian and Yao Wei had no intention of staying.

Lu Xian followed Yao Wei and continued walking. Jiangyu Road turned into a downhill road. Halfway up the slope, Lu Xian saw No. 270 and No. 269.

271 and 273 are gone.

It took more than half an hour to reach the end of the downhill road. There were lush trees on both sides of the road.

If it were in his previous life, Lu Xian would be happy to walk and run in such a place and breathe some fresh air. But in this world, this place only makes people feel dangerous.

Who knows what might be hidden in here?
Look at Yao Wei, she hid her car inside.

Lu Xian followed Yao Wei into the woods and walked a short distance before he saw a car at the bottom of a small slope.

The car had large tires and a very high chassis. It was covered with iron sheets and looked like it had a lot of patches. Even the windows were covered with iron mesh.

Lu Xian fell in love with the car as soon as he saw it. In this world, a car like this looks much safer than a sports car.

But he was confused and looked back at the ground several times, but why were there no tire tracks?

"I cleaned it up when I left."

Yao Wei saw Lu Xian's confusion and answered.

She didn't rush to get into the car, nor did she fill the tank with gasoline immediately. Instead, she walked around the car to check it first.

This step of checking the condition of the vehicle was necessary when taking the third test in the previous life. It is still for checking the condition of the vehicle now, but in addition to this, it is also for observing whether there are any hidden dangers.

Therefore, Yao Wei looked very carefully, and Lu Xian also helped to look.

After walking around the car, Yao Wei opened the door, took off the backpack on her back and threw it into the car.

After opening the fuel tank, Yao Wei took out a metal funnel from the car and used it to pour the oil from the iron oil barrel into the tank.

After doing all this, she put the iron bucket and funnel away and said to Lu Xian, "Get in the car." The interior of the car was very spacious, with two rows of seats. The iron bucket, funnel and other things were placed in the trunk. Although it was called the trunk, it could be stepped into from the second row of seats.

There is no problem fitting several people in the trunk.

Lu Xian opened the back door and took a look at the trunk. It was full of various things, including a medical kit and a tool box. He wondered where Yao Wei got them.

"You sit in front."

Yao Wei said without allowing any room for refusal.

Lu Xian smiled and said, "I'm putting my things away and I don't plan to sit in the back."

This woman was afraid that he would attack her from behind.

But that's normal. If you give it to him, he will do the same.

Who can fully trust anyone in this world? Allowing someone to get on the bus and sit in the same row is already a great kindness.

After putting away the backpack, closing the door, and opening the front passenger door, Lu Xian picked up the mechanical dog from the ground and got into the car.

Yao Wei didn't trust Lu Xian, so naturally she wouldn't trust the mechanical dog either.

Although this dog is a mechanical dog, it is still Lu Xian's dog after all.

So Lu Xian was very conscious and directly carried the dog to the passenger seat and placed it at his feet.

At this time, the advantage of the dog's small size is revealed. The space under the feet of the front row of the car can fully accommodate it.

"Where are your screwdriver and wrench?"

Lu Xian asked.

Yao Wei replied, "It's in the trunk. After I fill up the gas and find a place to rest, I'll bring it to you."

This time the speech was really long, almost twenty words.

Lu Xian suddenly felt a little sorry that he had used up all the ink in his diary. Otherwise, he could have recorded how many words this woman said in a day.

Yao Wei started the car, turned on the headlights, and drove onto the road.

Lu Xian leaned his body against the backrest, but felt that it was too hard and not very comfortable.

He looked at the dim halogen light from the car lights in front of him blending with the darkness, creating a field of vision.

Looking at the dark interior of the car again, the gaps between the dashboard and the center console buttons emitted a faint fluorescent light. He was a little dazed for a moment, as if he had gone back to the past.

How long has it been since you took a car?

I miss you so much!

Lu Xian turned his head and glanced at Yao Wei. The woman was driving nervously and was still wary of him.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything. The car is in your hands. If I hit you and you overturn the car, will I be in any good?"

After hearing what Lu Xian said, the woman was silent for a moment and said, "Okay." Then she really relaxed a little.

As the car passed Jiangyu Road, the two saw Villa No. 272 ​​again, but this time the villa was just an insignificant scenery on the side of the road, and it only flashed by in their field of vision.

Arriving at the abandoned gas station, Yao Wei drove the car directly to the gas pump that she had previously confirmed was still usable and stopped, but did not turn off the engine.

She observed in the car for a while, and when she saw that no one came out, she opened the door and got out with the gun.

Lu Xian followed suit and followed with a gun.

But he had a pistol tucked into his waist and a submachine gun in his hand.
