Chen Bufan and his friends stayed in the village for a few days, and then took a group of people from Li Wenqiang's village back to the Lantern Festival for a tour.
The Lantern Festival has become unrecognizable, like a ruin forgotten by time.
The once bustling and lively Lantern Festival has now become a desolate place without a trace of life.
In addition to the charred wreckage of vehicles, the streets were also littered with white bones.
The shops, restaurants and entertainment venues that were once crowded with people are now dilapidated, with broken doors and windows, peeling walls, and a suffocating silence permeates the entire city.
They didn't even see a single living person.
They shuttled through this abandoned city, searching every street and every community's supermarkets, convenience stores, grain and oil stores, clothing stores, shoe stores, hardware stores, grocery stores and other stores near the commercial streets one by one.
Whatever it was, as long as it was still somewhat useful and not expired or rotten, they would clear it out.
They transported the supplies to their village by truck and left some at their former homes in case they came back to visit in the future.
After finishing these things, Chen Bufan returned to his upstairs to take a rest.
The scene in the room was no different from when they left. The broken glass and messy items on the floor made the entire space look extremely messy.
Because the windows were blown out, snowflakes drifted into the living room, covering every corner of the room with a thin layer of snow.
Although the environment was so dirty and harsh, Chen Bufan felt an inexplicable sense of security sitting there.
After returning to the village.
Li Wenyin told Li Wenqiang the news that her parents were still alive. Li Wenqiang was so excited that tears came to his eyes. He hugged Li Wenyin and cried bitterly.
Then the next day, before leaving, Li Wenyin left a letter for her brother, and also left countless meats, vegetables, canned food and other daily necessities for Li Wenqiang. These supplies were enough for them to live for several years.
Then, Chen Bufan took Li Wenyin and 500 soldiers away quietly without causing any noise.
The remaining 2500 soldiers stayed in Fengtian.
One of the reasons was to let them protect the safety of Li Wenqiang and others.
Another reason was to let these soldiers continue to clear the zombies in Fengtian to help Li Wenqiang earn more points.
Chen Bufan left a large amount of ammunition, enough for them to deal with several large-scale wars, and they would not be able to use it up to clear the zombies at ordinary times.
When Li Wenqiang woke up, he happily went to his sister to talk about how to find his parents, but he found that the room was empty, with only a table and a letter on it.
"No! Chen Bufan! I will fight you to the death!" Li Wenqiang shouted loudly.
"Sister! You actually left me and ran away again!!" Li Wenqiang said angrily.
He picked up the letter and began to read it, feeling helpless.
He had been looking forward to going with his sister to look for his parents, but now she had abandoned him again and ran off with that stinky man. This damn girl made him so mad.
Li Wenqiang sat on the stool with a hopeless look on his face and opened the envelope.
"Brother? Are you helpless? I've abandoned you again! Hahaha! Don't miss me, I'm going to look for my parents.
Your brother-in-law insisted on taking me with him.
There's nothing I can do.
I can't stop him! You don't have to worry about me.
We are very capable.
You just stay in the village.
The supplies your brother-in-law left for you are enough for you to live for several years! You and Yu Han should live a good life.
If you have nothing to do, have a baby and have fun with it! Wait for me to come back so that you can take your child out to play! Bye!"
"Alas! I'm so unlucky to have such a sister..." Li Wenqiang threw the letter on the table and rolled his eyes.

Chen Bufan was driving a Hummer H6. He didn't like driving large truck-type RVs, but he was addicted to driving this car.
On the entire highway, he was the only one driving. Where were the soldiers? He had put all the cars in his backpack. 500 soldiers were digging the soil with pickaxes in their small world. It was such an honor for the boss to drive. It was not too much to repay him by digging some soil, right?
We can't ask the boss's wife to till the soil, can we? So many people are idle anyway, and the most important thing is that we can eat without worry, pure green food without pesticides.
Chen Bufan was very busy along the way. Every few minutes he would come across a car accident scene with a bunch of cars piled together. Li Wenyin and other girls took guns to clear the zombies in the cars, then took the zombies out and threw them outside the highway isolation zone.
It was right to take it out. The women were all over 1000 pounds of strength, and they could pull out a starving zombie with just one hand and throw it away.
They did all these tasks along the way. Chen Bufan followed behind and waited for them to finish cleaning before packing the car and clearing the road.
We only traveled less than 170 kilometers in a day, but the points added up to more than 4000, not counting the zombies killed by the soldiers left behind in Fengtian. It can be seen that there are quite a few cars on this highway.
At dusk, the sun sets and everything is white. The temperature is minus 15 degrees Celsius. It may be because it is close to the sea, the temperature here is much higher than Fengtian.
Chen Bufan glanced at the map. They were near the fish-pulling circle. They decided to stop here and take a break today. Working at night was too unfriendly.
Their destination was to go to Bayuquan or Qingnipu, where they could "borrow" a boat directly from the port, and then go by water, directly to Sanya City from the sea to rescue Wen Yin's parents.
This is faster and less dangerous, as the zombies can't swim after their boat.
Drive a few kilometers forward and you will see Bayuquan City on your right.
Chen Bufan was speeding on the highway. There was a service area not far ahead. He could already see the residential areas and streets in the city.
There should be no intelligent zombies born here, so the city is not besieged.
On the streets, zombies can be seen everywhere, walking slowly with their heads down, wandering around aimlessly.
Chen Bufan had good eyesight, and he even saw survivors waving their arms at their car in a residential building near the highway.
Chen Bufan stopped the car curiously and looked in that direction.
Due to the distance, he could only see what seemed to be a human silhouette.
Perhaps because he noticed that Chen Bufan's car had stopped, the figure on the opposite side became more excited.
The figure turned around and ran back into the room, then reappeared a few seconds later and threw a white bed sheet out of the window.
Chen Bufan looked closely and saw the three letters "SOS" written on the white bed sheet, which was obviously a call for help.
A large number of zombies have gathered downstairs in this community and on the streets outside the community.
These zombies must have gathered here because they smelled the scent of people in the building.
The weather is cold now. If we give it a try, the zombies move slowly and are actually no match for humans. They just have more numbers, but unfortunately humans are too timid.
Without any intention of rescuing anyone, the Hummer started again and drove towards the service area ahead, where Chen Bufan planned to rest for a night.
