Several people drove their car near the villa and then idled, waiting.
At the first group meeting in the apocalypse, everyone unanimously decided to actively go out hunting and expand their numbers.
Based on An Nuan's knowledge from her rebirth, they would vigorously identify and recruit talented individuals, and thoroughly search for usable supplies, preparing for the future growth and expansion of their small team.
An Nuan decided to sort through the personnel list these next two days.
She would quickly find the few strong individuals she knew and bring them under her wing one by one.
Her first target was someone who had been An Dong's personal bodyguard in her previous life.
He was the only one among An Dong's subordinates who still possessed conscience and humanity.
When she had been pushed into the zombie horde, he was the only one who had pleaded for her.
He had even been slapped twice by An Dong.
In this life, she was the one with the supplies, and she also knew where the person lived.
An Nuan decided to strike first.
Having thought this through, An Nuan decided to return to her room to sleep.
Juanzi and Daizi suddenly barked towards the door with muffled growls.
Luoluo also heard the sound.
"It sounds like something is pounding on the glass."
"Xiaodu Xiaodu, brighten the glass."
The color of the glass returned to normal. In the moonlight outside, An Nuan clearly saw what was clinging to it.
Encountering a dozen flies the size of grapes clinging to the glass late at night was truly an omen of bad luck!
"Wooo~~ Owoooo, meow!"
Daizi scrambled towards the glass, paws batting. She hadn't been this serious even when trying to bury its waste in the litter box.
The flies remained motionless, staring into the house.
"Interesting, let's go, we're going upstairs to sleep."
Old Mrs. Liu exclaimed with surprise, "They're going upstairs to sleep, our chance has come!"
"Mom, should we just take the food, or...?"
The third daughter, Liu Xing, made a throat-slitting gesture.
She said this without a hint of hesitation, as if it were as normal as eating, drinking, or flirting with younger men.
Their entire family had killed before and were numb to the act.
If they didn't kill others, they would be killed.
This was the unanimous belief of the entire family.
"F**k your mother!"
As the second son, Liu Zhuang, entered the courtyard, he triggered a mechanism. An arrow shot through the instep of his foot.
Old Mrs. Liu's flies could sense heat, but not machines.
Fearing her son would be injured further, she quickly sent her fly grandchildren to scout ahead.
Liu Ying covered his mouth: "Shh! Keep your voice down, it'll be trouble if we wake them up!"
"Damn it, my foot is pierced!"
"Bear with it for now. Later, you can do whatever you want with those two women."
Liu Zhuang fiercely pulled out the arrow.
"When I catch those two little sluts, I'll chop off their legs and shove them up those two men's asses!"
Hearing such words, the two sisters dared not make a sound.
The second son was the fiercest among them, and he would definitely seek revenge if wronged.
They could only say that those people deserved it!
"My grandchildren!"
Several of the old lady's grandchildren had been killed by the traps, but they had also found a safe path for themselves.
Liu Ying reached the door first and took out her toolkit to pick the lock.
The lock remained unyielding for a long time. Liu Zhuang cursed, "Useless! Can't even open a damn rusty lock!"
"Don't blame her. When I remodeled the house, I used bank vault-grade materials, including the locks. Ordinary bandits can't open them."
An Nuan's voice suddenly came from upstairs.
She had already changed into her pajamas and was smiling, holding a bottle of iced beer and looking down at them.
Chang Kaitong and Hai Changfeng next door were also watching them with cold eyes.
Only Luoluo was playing on the PS with the two cats, too busy to pay them any mind.
"Oh dear, you're awake?"
Old Mrs. Liu said with a fake smile, "We were just passing by and saw your lights were on. We came to see if you needed any help. Little girl, open the door, let's have a good chat."
Nonsense!
Her house's windows were all smart glass. Even if there was activity inside, it would appear completely dark from the outside.
Turning on the lights? Was she guiding people to come and chop her down?
Her lies lacked logic.
An Nuan smiled and said, "Auntie, your son is pointing a crossbow at my face. Is that what you call a good chat?"
"Oh, he's just being considerate, afraid you might have bad people around. Be good, come down quickly and open the door, it'll be convenient for everyone."
"Convenient for f**k! Old hag, don't dream!"
Hai Changfeng threw a walnut shell at them.
Eating a handful of nuts to replenish energy was a task An Nuan had assigned to him and Chang Kaitong.
One was a blood bank, and the other was growing.
Both needed special care.
Liu Zhuang, already injured, had a head full of walnut shells thrown at him.
He snatched the elder's crossbow and shot an arrow at Hai Changfeng.
Chang Kaitong used just a tiny bit of force, causing the arrow to miss.
"Damn it, you missed even at this range, you're so useless!"
The first attack failed, dampening their morale.
Liu Zhuang snatched the crossbow back and shot several more arrows. Unsurprisingly, they all missed.
"How is this possible!"
The family finally realized something was wrong.
An Nuan propped her chin and smiled, "You thought you were the only special ones?"
"Ah!"
A freshly shot bolt instantly returned and pierced Old Mrs. Liu.
As she shrieked, a bolt shot through her head, sending her to join her previous husbands.
"Mom! Murder! You bunch of beasts!"
Liu Ying grabbed a machete and lunged at An Nuan.
*Clang!*
An Nuan flicked the beer can she was holding, deflecting the machete.
The four siblings were stunned.
How could a soda can knock away a machete? It was a machete!
But the fact was, it was possible.
With the right force and angle, even a soda can could deflect a machete.
"Since you were intending to break in and murder, you should have been prepared to be killed. Don't be so double-standard, okay?"
As An Nuan finished speaking, snow began to fall from the sky.
Snowflakes larger than goose feathers fell fiercely. Outside, it had been nearly fifty degrees Celsius just moments ago.
After a flurry of snowflakes, the temperature instantly dropped, a true heaven of ice and fire.
It was fine for now, but after a couple more days of snow, the temperature would drop to over minus thirty degrees Celsius.
It seemed they had to set out to find people tomorrow, so they wouldn't freeze to death before they could find them.
"Brother, kill them."
"You b**ch, what did you say! Get down here, I'll kill you first!"
"Oh, right."
An Nuan paused.
"Was it you who said you'd chop off our legs and shove them up someone else's ass?"
An Nuan's pupils emitted a chilling coldness.
Liu Zhuang froze for a moment, but he couldn't back down in front of a woman.
"So what if I said it? Not only will I chop off your legs, but I'll have fun with you first, and then skin your companions! Hurry and open the door, I'm coming in!"
He had felt something was wrong since the snow started.
It was too cold!
An Nuan found it amusing to see him shivering.
Even if he begged for mercy, she wouldn't let him in, especially when he kept threatening to torture her to death.
Even a brain-dead person wouldn't open the door!
