Pain, it hurt so much!
The bone-deep pain spread all over Zhang Yi's body. This wasn't just a feeling but a reality that had truly happened to him.
At that moment, he was ruthlessly knocked to the ground by the friends and neighbors he had once trusted and helped. Fists, feet and even sticks rained down on him like a shower. In this apocalyptic world with scarce supplies, they didn't even care about Zhang Yi's help to them in the past and laid their hands on him!
On his deathbed, he vaguely saw Fang Yuqing, the goddess in his heart, standing behind the crowd, shouting pitifully, "I told him to open the door. You should give me an extra share of the supplies!" It was this woman who tricked Zhang Yi into opening the door and then killed him.
Zhang Yi looked at her, his eyes full of hatred and regret. He could only blame himself for being too stupid and too kind, which made him become a stepping stone for others in this apocalyptic world. How he wished he could start all over again. At that time, he would no longer be soft-hearted to anyone and would only live for himself!
Zhang Yi soon blacked out and lost consciousness. However, in the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the sofa. The hellish scene he had just experienced and the terrible pain were still vivid in his mind. Zhang Yi gasped for breath and his whole body was soon soaked with sweat.
"What's going on? Wasn't I killed by those beastly neighbors?"
After coming to his senses, Zhang Yi began to look around. This place was not unfamiliar to him. It was his own house. The comfortable temperature in the air made him feel extremely surprised.
Because in December 2050 AD, the Blue Star was affected by the explosion of a supernova 500,000 light-years away and ushered in a global Cambrian storm. The global temperature dropped sharply. The daily temperature in Tianhai City where Zhang Yi lived was minus sixty or seventy degrees. The heavy snow lasted for a month and flooded the whole city. It is said that in the north of China, the temperature even reached a terrifying minus more than 100 degrees and the whole land was buried by ice and snow. A large number of various living things became extinct and even more than 95% of the human beings died in this disaster.
Zhang Yi stood up and took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and gulped down more than half of it. Although the temperature of the refrigerated water was very low, for him now, this kind of water was like nectar. In the apocalyptic world, the only way for people to get water was to go out and dig snow to melt it into water at the extremely low temperature of minus sixty or seventy degrees. Such work could easily freeze people to death.
After Zhang Yi drank the water, he opened his mobile phone and took a look. It showed the time "November 12th". There was exactly one month before the end of the world.
"It seems that I was reborn." Zhang Yi took a deep breath and quickly understood what had happened. That one-month experience couldn't have been a dream, especially the pain of being torn apart, which was too real.
Zhang Yi raised his head and was extremely grateful after surviving the disaster. At the same time, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He clearly remembered those who had killed him in the first place. In this life, he must live well and would no longer be kind-hearted to those bastards. Moreover, on the premise of ensuring his own safety, he must take revenge on those bastards severely!
But now, the first thing Zhang Yi needed to consider was how to survive well in the apocalyptic world that would come in one month.
Zhang Yi's living conditions were not bad. His parents died early and he inherited a house in Tianhai City with an area of 120 square meters. He also had a deposit of more than 2 million. It would seem relatively well-off in normal times. But when the apocalypse comes, there will be a huge shortage of supplies all over the world. Relying on the little money in his hand, he couldn't last long. After all, to survive alone, one needs a huge amount of supplies. If he could prepare in advance, Zhang Yi not only wanted to survive but also hoped to have a certain quality of life in the future. He had to take into account both diet and entertainment. Otherwise, his spirit would definitely break down after a long time. And weapons and equipment were also necessary. Only in this way could he protect his own safety and complete his revenge on his neighbors.
Just then, a ray of white light suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Yi. He thought his right eye was a bit blurry, so he reached out and rubbed it. But suddenly, a strange thought sprang up in his mind. It seemed that this ray of white light was a part of him and the information of the white light also appeared in his mind. Zhang Yi's mind moved and his consciousness instantly entered the white light. As a result, he found that it was an extremely huge white space. He didn't know how big the area inside was. There was only a large expanse of blankness.
"Is this... an alien space?"
"It seems that after I was reborn, I have some special abilities." Zhang Yi was immediately overjoyed. It seemed that the passage of gamma rays had caused his body to mutate and produce extraordinary power. With this huge space, it would be much more convenient for him to store supplies for the end of the world.
However, Zhang Yi wanted to know how much this space could store and whether there were any restrictions on the objects that could be collected. His consciousness immediately returned to his room and then he began to try to put the things in the house into the space. At first, he started with cups and basins and they were all easily put in. Zhang Yi began to try to stuff large household appliances into it. Color TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, computers, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners. The white space accepted everything and took all these things in. Moreover, as long as Zhang Yi had a thought, he could take things out of the space. However, some objects that were subjected to strong external forces and did not exist alone were difficult to be put into the space. For example, when he wanted to pry a floor tile out of the ground, there was no reaction.
"There seem to be many rules in the alien space. I need to explore them slowly."
"But just this huge space that can store objects can allow me to store a huge amount of resources!" He licked his lips and had a bold plan in his mind.
Zhang Yi's job was a supervisor in the South China region warehouse of Walmart supermarket. Walmart, as the world's largest supermarket, had all kinds of goods. It had three huge warehouses in Central China, South China and North China. The volume of these three warehouses was extremely huge, especially the South China warehouse. It was built in 2040, 1,500 meters long and 720 meters wide, covering an area of more than one million square meters! It was the world's first giant warehouse! It was once praised as the eighth wonder of the world by the president of Walmart Greater China. Of course, there are only seven wonders recognized in the world, and there are thousands of the so-called eighth wonders which are self-evaluated. But the area and storage capacity of the South China warehouse indeed topped the global warehousing field. The supplies regularly stored inside could supply the consumption of tens of millions of people in several cities for a week. That is to say, as long as Zhang Yi emptied the supplies in one warehouse and moved them into his space, then he wouldn't have to worry about supplies not only for a lifetime but even for ten lifetimes! The most important thing was that Walmart's quality control was very strict. There were no low-grade miscellaneous brands in the warehouse. Whether it was food, general merchandise or luxury goods, they were all big brands with good reputations. If Zhang Yi could empty one of Walmart's warehouses, he wouldn't have to worry about the supplies when the apocalypse comes and could also live very comfortably.
Zhang Yi, as the supervisor of the warehouse, was extremely familiar with every shelf, monitoring equipment and personnel scheduling in the warehouse. It was definitely not a difficult thing for him to empty the warehouse.
After making up his mind, Zhang Yi felt much more relaxed.
"Goo goo~" Just then, Zhang Yi's stomach growled in protest. Zhang Yi touched his stomach and took a look at the yellow braised chicken rice he bought on the table. Zhang Yi stroked his chin and hesitated for a while. Finally, he smiled and shook his head and chose to give up eating takeout.
"Another month and it will be the end of the world. I have to hurry up and eat a lot of delicious food. Otherwise, I won't have a chance in the future. Why should I be so stingy to myself?"
He had endured the cold and hunger for a month and was eager to eat some hot and delicious food at this time. What's the use of keeping money? After the end of the world, money will become waste paper. It's better to spend it all now so that it won't be wasted.
Zhang Yi turned around and prepared to find a high-end restaurant that he had never been willing to go to before and have a good meal.
