The man and woman who got out of the car were indeed siblings. The older brother was named Li Ming, and the younger sister was named Li Hui.

They felt that staying in the city center was becoming increasingly dangerous, so they braved the risks and came to a more remote location.

They had thought that a more remote location would be much better, maybe even have a rescue base, but unexpectedly, there were indeed fewer zombies than in the city center.

But things like supplies in the supermarkets were all gone.

They came to Chen Luo's place and were originally very happy to see the supermarket in the villa district, but they were greatly disappointed after entering.

They searched two villas and found no water at all. They didn't dare to drink the tap water.

They still had a little food, so they weren't hungry, but they hadn't had any water for almost a day, and their lips were already very chapped.

Li Hui, the younger sister, heard a sound from Chen Luo's side, so she came over to take a look.

As they approached, although they weren't hungry, they couldn't help but swallow when they saw the braised pork on the table.

At this time, the braised pork was too tempting.

Li Ming tried hard not to look at the braised pork and the iced cola.

The cola had been iced by an ice-type ability user. Of course, cola had to be iced to have soul.

Everyone looked at the suddenly appearing Li Ming, who勉强挤出笑容：“Sorry to bother you all, do you have any clean water? I can trade for it with food.”

If you beg, I would never give it to you for no reason.

Chen Luo nodded: "Shu Yun, bring two bottles of mineral water over."

Hearing that there was water, and that Chen Luo agreed to the exchange, a relieved smile appeared on Li Ming's face.

Li Ming went back to the car and took two packs of instant noodles, hesitated, and then took two sausages.

Seeing Shu Yun looking at him, wondering if she should make the trade, Chen Luo shook his head: "Shu Yun, you can make the decision on your own for such small matters in the future."

She was a sensible girl, but too sensible.

Shu Yun nodded and agreed to the exchange.

Li Ming quickly took the water, opened a bottle, first handed it to his sister, and then opened his own, and couldn't help but drink it.

Chen Luo watched and nodded secretly. His character seemed good so far.

But what was the use of having a good character? And what did it have to do with me?

This was just a transaction.

Chen Luo called out: "Everyone, continue eating, don't let the food get cold."

After drinking the water, Li Hui looked longingly at the braised pork, her eyes almost unable to move away.

Li Ming saw it and really wanted to trade some braised pork with Chen Luo to satisfy his sister.

But they didn't have much food left. If they satisfied their momentary cravings, what would they eat for the next meal?

He sighed, and Li Ming drove the car a little further away, so as not to affect other people's appetites by blocking their door.

Li Ming and his sister ate instant noodles in the car.

Li Hui suddenly said, "Brother, there's a group of sisters over there. They don't look like bad people. Why don't we join them?"

Li Ming was stunned, and immediately tempted. If it was a group of big men, he would never join, even if he was beaten to death. He was also a man, and he knew that once a man's desires were aroused, he could do anything.

Especially when order collapses like this.

And his sister was pretty good-looking.

But a group of women was definitely different.

Li Ming nodded: "You stay in the car, I'll go down and ask."

Li Ming could tell that Chen Luo was the one in charge. He found Chen Luo through the fence, and said with a smile, "Big brother, my sister and I are really not very safe. Can we get your protection? Of course, you just have to say the word if there's anything you need us to do."

Chen Luo had already guessed it, so he wasn't surprised. He said bluntly, "Then you have to be qualified. Now, you and your sister go out and find zombies, kill ten, and bring back the crystals from their heads as proof."

"You can use weapons, but you can't use external force such as vehicles."

*Ding*, NPC Chen Luo has issued you a mission.

Li Ming seemed to hear such a voice in his mind.

He didn't refuse, but he had to kill zombies first?

Li Ming realized that this was to see if he and the others were useless. Li Ming was relieved instead.

If he had been allowed to join without saying anything, he would have been worried that he had entered a black shop, and that he and his sister would be slaughtered.

Li Ming nodded: "We'll go right away."

Li Ming returned to the car, told Li Hui about it, and walked out of the community with a blood-stained fire axe from the car.

Fearing that Chen Luo would think he would use the vehicle, Li Ming didn't drive.

Chen Luo looked at their backs. They didn't seem useless.

People with families like this are easier to trust than other single people.

Because they have worries, they have to carefully weigh betrayal and such things.

Chen Luo didn't give Li Ming and his sister a chance because he was in a good mood at all. Recruiting people was a must.

Why not take in those who are not bad when you meet them?

Now, Chen Luo has thirty people here. Is that a lot?

Not at all, it's too few.

In the apocalypse, people will die, and the mortality rate is still very high. Three months later, Chen Luo doesn't even know how many of the people around him now will be able to survive.

Chen Luo won't support anyone for nothing. After the zombies evolve to level one, they all have to go out to kill zombies and get crystals.

If he doesn't recruit people, will he be able to handle a team of hundreds or hundreds of people in the future?

The reason why he didn't recruit people before was because it was inconvenient, and the main reason was that the survivors hadn't experienced the beatings of the apocalypse.

Take Shu Yun and her group, for example. If he had recruited them at the beginning of the apocalypse, do you believe they would have thrown a tantrum at him on the spot?

Expect them to work and move things yesterday? Get real.

Could they be as obedient as they are now?

Of course, you can also command forcefully, but if you do that, there will definitely be a gap in their hearts, and some resentment.

If you can let the apocalypse discipline them, why do it yourself?

Isn't it better to let this world be the bad guy and I be the good guy?

Now, the time is barely right to recruit people.

But not all trash is accepted. First, they must obey orders, and second, they must have the courage and strength to kill zombies.

If both of these are passed, then let Mifen sense it, and it will be much safer.

If Li Ming and Li Hui die in the hands of zombies, fail to complete the task, and have no ability, Chen Luo will not regret it at all.

It's not like they have to face ten zombies at the same time. It's already very simple. It's something anyone with hands can do.

……………………………………

ps: I originally wanted to push Mi Ling first, but after thinking about it, it's not the time to let things happen naturally. Also, if I push Mi Ling first, with Mifen's character, I'm afraid she won't be able to help but feel sad and cry.

Then the protagonist comforts her, and her sister comforts her. Just thinking about writing such a plot makes my scalp tingle. It's so clichéd.

I think you will also complain when you see such a plot, so I changed the order.

It's different with Mifen first. Her sister is mature and mentally strong.

In addition, I have already thought about the afterword of this book. I know how to write the whole book. Many plots are in my mind, but how to connect them together without being abrupt is a bit messy.

I really try my best to do three chapters every day. It takes me a whole day.
