Those being cursed just bowed and scraped, not getting angry at all, still showing a great deal of respect towards the old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Head Village Chief took the group on a tour of the entire Divine Elephant Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their long period of migratory life gave the group a surreal feeling of being in a different world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the villagers' clothes were a mishmash, even looking somewhat grubby, at least everyone's mental state seemed pretty good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, everyone had their own tasks to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, quite a few people were tending to that farmland they had just seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The village even raised some chickens and ducks, very few in number, and they didn't look very lively either, each one skinny as a rail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably due to scarce resources, with not much food even for people, it was even less likely to be fed to these chickens and ducks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were fields and vegetable plots, those had to supply the entire village and simply weren't enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our village can only barely manage to this extent at present.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Every so often, we also organize people to go down and gather supplies, but nowadays supplies are getting scarcer and harder to collect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many items have already expired.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it weren't for Professor Liu, we'd probably have starved to death long ago, and couldn't have supported the village to survive until now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Big Head Village Chief rambled on about all the village's affairs, big and small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave off a very sincere impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he had no intention whatsoever of hiding anything from Chen Ye and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the evening, Divine Elephant Village held a simple welcome banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice, holding a large welcome banquet also required supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the current situation, there simply wasn't enough to hold a large banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Chu Che was quite generous, having people bring thirty catties of fish meat, fifty catties of expired rice, and fifty catties of expired flour to support this welcome banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even took out two bottles of baijiu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Big Head Village Chief very grateful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, supporting a banquet for forty people would be somewhat of a strain even for Divine Elephant Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che's donation made this banquet look a bit less pitiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially those two bottles of baijiu, they practically made this Big Head Village Chief's eyes narrow into slits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have to understand, when going out to gather supplies, everyone's main targets were food like rice and flour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cigarettes and baijiu were much easier to overlook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This led to these things becoming even more precious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even someone as esteemed as the village chief probably hadn't smelled alcohol in a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet was held outdoors in the village's large square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, this large square was also the place where Divine Elephant Village's villagers held collective activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every villager contributed the tables, chairs, and benches from their homes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the village's prominent figures attended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, some ordinary villagers simply didn't have the qualifications to participate in this humble banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That village chief assistant called Xiao Zheng even organized a welcome ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During it, a woman in an evening gown stood confidently in the middle of the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the convoy's survivors saw this woman, a minor commotion broke out on their side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My god, it's Su Mansheng! It's really Su Mansheng!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's Su Mansheng? That name sounds familiar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bro, you don't even know Su Mansheng? The goddess of otaku! Have you heard of 'Midnight Voice'?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mean that internet-famous female broadcaster?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Holy crap, it's really her! My dear mother, I never thought I'd live to see the day Su Mansheng would host for us. I'm satisfied, I'm satisfied!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you dreaming? You think Su Mansheng is here because of you? She's here because of Chen Ye, Squad Leader Chu, them. A woman like this isn't someone you can covet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye didn't recognize this woman at first either, he just thought she was good-looking and had great poise, looking just like those hosts from TV programs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And her hosting voice was very pleasant to listen to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing the discussions around him, Chen Ye finally remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the apocalypse, there was a very popular radio program.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have to understand, that was an era dominated by short videos. For a radio program to suddenly rise to prominence was truly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason was a program called \"Midnight Voice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female broadcaster in the program had a chameleon-like voice. When she used a mature, domineering sister tone, it made people's hearts itch. When she used a loli tone, it made people's mouths unconsciously curl up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elderly voices, young girl voices, male voices—she could do them all, and master them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was nothing she couldn't do!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely because of her appearance that radio, which was about to disappear into the river of history, experienced a brief, final flicker of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, someone found her short video account.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This female broadcaster named Su Mansheng quickly gained tens of millions of followers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the calls of her millions of fans, this female broadcaster finally recorded a video showing her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought it would instantly trend on hot searches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, these kinds of 'voice monster' talents mostly just have nice voices. If you let your imagination run wild about them, you'd be greatly disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this Su Mansheng was different. Not only did she have a great voice, but her figure and looks were also one in ten thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to that quasi-female internet celebrity Xue Nan, Su Mansheng's explosive popularity was far more legendary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought this legendary female broadcaster would appear here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, the surrounding discussions were incessant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't until Su Mansheng left that these discussions finally died down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was worth mentioning were the dishes at the banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they were all homestyle dishes, in an apocalypse where eating a hot meal was a luxury, having a table full of homestyle dishes was already extremely rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the fish meat at the banquet, the villagers also couldn't help but gulp repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, the survivors from the convoy side looked rather unenthusiastic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their meals for the past few days had all been fish meat;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they had eaten plenty of it already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the meal, Chen Ye did discover a few vegetable dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially one dish of roasted potatoes, which had a unique flavor when eaten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The potatoes collected back in Longevity Village had been finished long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also a dish of stir-fried lettuce stems, which tasted fresh and fragrant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were several other vegetarian dishes, all of which made Chen Ye's mouth water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was even a small bowl of rice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not the expired rice Chen Ye and the others had collected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... fresh rice!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just smelling its aroma gave people a tearful sense of happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These things were very ordinary before the apocalypse, but now, each and every one was an extremely precious treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, although these vegetarian dishes were varied in type, the portion for each person was very small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they were extremely refined. Although each small bowl contained just a little bit, a full table was laid out before each person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, the banquet used a divided meal system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survivors received even smaller portions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But everyone ate with great relish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che and Big Head Village Chief, however, were chatting animatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the purposes of this contact between the two sides was to exchange information, to share their respective experiences, so they could avoid making unnecessary mistakes during future migrations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Captain Chu, did you come from Fog City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Village Chief, have you also been to Fog City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Big Head Village Chief mentioned Fog City, a flicker of fear crossed his face: \"We passed by that area. There's a great serpent in Mist River. Good heavens, if it weren't for the Divine Elephant, we probably wouldn't have survived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the mention of the great serpent, Chen Ye pricked up his ears to listen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others were the same, all quieting down to listen to the two leaders start their conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding the matter of the great serpent, the Pink-haired Girl and the others had only heard Chen Ye mention it, and also witnessed that scene when they were finally leaving Fog City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Village Chief also encountered the great serpent in Mist River?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Absolutely. Our Divine Elephant Village lacks everything—medicine, daily necessities, clothes, tools. Some time ago, we planned to go to Fog City to gather some supplies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But Fog City was buried in thick fog. Pathfinder Zhan and Master Dashan took several villagers and went together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1625,"2026-05-30T15:16:55.252Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","8b8e9cafb8010f2ca0119adf53bd08898f915097e462629cba3bc29d60b29496","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-206","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-204",465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--cover.jpg"]
