Chapter 251: Lin Li doesn't recognize people after putting on his pants

October 20th, Sunday.

【Seek and experience in person... (100/100; 1/4).】

The part of Task 4 regarding the number of times was completed without any difficulty.

Security gates don't need to be bought; some shopping mall entrances have this equipment. Swipe back and forth a few times at each gate. If there are no other people waiting and the security guard doesn't care, swipe a few more times, and the remaining times are quickly made up.

As for the variety part.

Lin Li has already purchased a comprehensive physical examination package.

It was bought from a private physical examination institution.

CT scans are very routine and naturally included in the package, and the ultrasound diagnostic instrument is also available at the private institution he went to. Lin Li bought an extra copy, which can be experienced together when the time comes.

Although buying this kind of institutional physical examination is usually for large companies and enterprises, which purchase them in bulk as employee benefits, it is definitely not as cost-effective as going to a public hospital if purchased individually.

But for Lin Li, spending a little more money to save time on appointments and queuing is also worth it.

And because he bought a premium package, it's no problem for Lin Li to change the time temporarily.

A normal physical examination costs anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand, while Lin Li's package costs nearly six thousand yuan at once, and that's in a small place like Xiling.

Those who don't know would think that Lin Li is also living the life of little Chen Yuying now.

It can only be said that the account balance gave Lin Li the courage to live.

Lin Li loved to polish the gold under his bed whenever he had nothing to do; he had polished it until it had a glowing, dewy complexion.

As for the MRI, Lin Li also ran to the hospital early this morning to try to make an appointment.

After the doctor who saw him learned that Lin Li had no physical discomfort and only had the idea of checking it out because he heard that MRI could detect some hidden disease sprouts, the first reaction was naturally to persuade him that this was completely unnecessary and that he could pursue some alternative checks.

The original intention was naturally for Lin Li's own good, but under Lin Li's persistence and pleading, the doctor didn't continue to persuade him and still issued an examination form.

After all, MRI has no side effects, and its direction of use itself includes physical examinations for disease prevention, but ordinary people cannot afford the cost—the cost of an MRI examination of one part is basically over a thousand.

Lin Li doesn't need a full-body one. The position on the examination form is the brain. It is estimated that it will take about half an hour.

However, Lin Li also explained to the doctor that if there are patients who need this examination but cannot make an appointment, they can tell him at any time, and he will cancel his and change it to the other party.

After all, there is only one such machine in the whole Nansang, so don't affect truly needy people because of his own tasks.

If a tragedy is caused because of this, Lin Li is afraid that he will be like the aunt who accepted Bai Bufan's seat yesterday, waking up in the middle of the night to slap himself and say, "I'm damn well dead."

Even if he can't do an MRI, it doesn't matter. When Lin Li collected information, he found that in addition to the most basic electromagnetic induction principle, metal detectors also have a detector that uses short waves for detection.

Maybe it can count as a new variety.

However, this thing has few applicable scenarios, so the quantity is also small. Lin Li only found a detector hanging for over two thousand yuan on a second-hand platform, but fortunately, it was in the same city. If the MRI doesn't work, he can spend a hundred yuan to borrow it for testing reasons and let it scan him.

Night falls.

Lin Li moved several large boxes of chocolate, compressed dry rations, and other food he bought at the supermarket last night to the bathroom, unpacked them, and put them into snake-skin bags.

He also brought two packs of seeds, but Lin Li expressed doubt about whether this thing could "pass the review".

【Update completed.】

When the time came, the message arrived as scheduled. Lin Li clicked on the time-travel interface, but unfortunately, it was still squeezing toothpaste, and he didn't see an intuitive update.

After changing to a bottle of five "Grain Bigu Pills", Lin Li chose to refresh this column.

【You have refreshed the "Grade Up Talisman": 100 system currency, replace?】

【Grade Up Talisman: Placed on a refined magic treasure, nourished by spiritual energy, there is a probability of improving the quality of the magic treasure. The difficulty of improvement increases with the current quality of the magic treasure, with a minimum of 1%. If the improvement fails, the success probability of using the "Grade Up Talisman" on the magic treasure next time will increase.】

Is it for improving the quality of magic treasures?

Lin Li's only two magic treasures are the "Substitute Jade Buddha" and the "Hidden Emotion and Desire Bottle". Being able to improve the quality of magic treasures is definitely good. If he could let his resurrection armor have a few more lives, it would be a huge profit, but the problem is that the 'guaranteed' probability it gives seems a bit low.

But in fact, for top-level magic treasures, a 1% probability of improvement doesn't seem low.

Lin Li's unknown point now is its success probability on magic treasures of different qualities, and what quality his two magic treasures belong to.

The system didn't say.

Does he also combine the "Luck Talisman" and use it blindly?

Then the trial-and-error cost would be too high all of a sudden. In the case of not being able to guarantee whether the improvement can be successful, he now has a total of 480 system currency, and trying it would cost 250.

If it fails, Lin Li will feel like that two-hundred-and-fifty.

So although Lin Li replaced the product column, he didn't buy it.

Let's talk about it when there is an adaptation situation later.

After making preparations, he took a deep breath, picked up the things in front of him, and with a flash of white light, Lin Li had arrived at Mingyuan Star.

"Phew—"

Taking a long breath, Lin Li threw several huge snake-skin bags beside him.

The things he left here last week showed no signs of being moved.

Lin Li stepped forward to check his watch. The time was indeed as he estimated. It is now 2:00 PM in Yunguang City, and nearly an hour has passed since he last left, to be precise, nearly 56 minutes.

1:180.

Opening a bag, sure enough, things like seeds that involve living creatures were not brought over.

Looking at the system interface.

The countdown shows such numbers.

Lin Li frowned slightly.

If he remembers correctly, he calculated last time that he could only stay for five hours at most, right?

This time it's half an hour more? His calculation error couldn't be that big, it should be that it just increased this time.

Does it increase every time?

Recording this change and suppressing this doubt that requires more information to verify, Lin Li changed into the 【Demon Breath】 title.

Taking back the communicator he had placed separately in the other building and pressing it, Lin Li dragged all his belongings, including the beautiful lady, to the location he had agreed upon with Ye Jing and the others.

When approaching, he could see the expectant gazes of the three people. Lin Li felt that they hadn't left at all in this hour.

"Come over and take it yourself." After shouting to Ye Jing and the three, Lin Li took the powder corpses behind him and walked to the building next to him, and shook them off.

Ye Jing was naturally the first to arrive.

"The food you want, seeds can't be brought." Lin Li signaled her to open it and take a look.

Shi Dongchen and Hu Fei also followed.

When Ye Jing opened the nearest bag and saw bundles of chocolate tightly wrapped in plastic, which was a much larger quantity than the expected hundred bars, her excitement was beyond words.

And it wasn't just one bag.

The bag Shi Dongchen opened was full of biscuits, which looked very dense and filling, and there were some aluminum-canned foods next to it.

There was even a third bag.

The bag Hu Fei opened was a zombie corpse covered in lingerie.

Hu Fei: "?"

"Sister-in-law is good!"

Damn, opened a hidden version. Hu Fei took a step back, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to the beautiful lady, and shouted loudly.

Lin Li: "?"

"Who the hell told you to call her sister-in-law?"

"Lin Li, Shi Dongchen is useless, you be my big brother!" Hu Fei turned to Lin Li upon hearing this, his eyes expectant.

Shi Dongchen: "..."

"It's not about being a big brother or not. Even if I am your big brother, she is not your sister-in-law." For Hu Fei, Lin Li couldn't get angry and said with amusement.

"I know! Lin Li, in the future, if big sister-in-law asks me, I won't tell her about you and little sister-in-law." Hu Fei thought seriously for a long time upon hearing this, and finally, raised his head and said seriously.

"..."

The brain thought very well, don't think next time.

Lin Li smiled relievedly, waved his hand to give up explaining, but looked at Shi Dongchen and said again:

"Seeds can't be brought over."

"Understood, it's okay. With these, it's enough to solve our urgent needs! Thank you! Lin Li, thank you so much. We will go back now and dismantle the remaining gold nuggets and bring them to you!"

Shi Dongchen was not disappointed upon hearing this. To be honest, the amount of food in front of him far exceeded his estimation.

He originally thought that with Lin Li's attitude, it would be ideal to fill a backpack, but he didn't expect him to drag two large snake-skin bags filled to the brim.

Shi Dongchen would have to use both hands to briefly lift either of these two bags.

It seems that Lin Li's heart is much kinder than he appears on the surface. If he had changed his way of contact at the beginning, the result might have been better.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

"I'm not in a hurry for gold nuggets. If it's convenient, just bring me some water and kitchenware and tableware like pots and pans." Lin Li waved his hand and said indifferently.

There are still nearly two million in gold at home that hasn't been sold. Lin Li's only purpose for coming to the apocalypse this time is to complete Task 2 and get the reward.

Now, creating a "dinner" environment as much as possible to avoid the system judging that the task is not completed is the top priority.

"Okay! Kitchenware and tableware, right? We will go back and prepare immediately!"

Shi Dongchen is not afraid of Lin Li making requests, but afraid of Lin Li not making requests. He nodded and answered extremely quickly upon hearing this.

"Then... we will take the things back first?" Then his voice asked tentatively.

"Hmm."

"Okay, okay. If you have any needs, press the communicator to contact us, and we will come here immediately!" After Shi Dongchen finished speaking, he looked at Hu Fei: "Hu Fei, take the things, let's go."

Hu Fei didn't move and was still kowtowing to the beautiful lady.

"Hu Xiaojing!" Shi Dongchen shouted.

"What!" Hu Fei, with his head on the ground, responded.

"Take the bag, we're going back to the shelter!" Shi Dongchen said with a headache.

"Only big brother and sister-in-law can order me, you are no longer my big brother, Shi Dongchen."

"Little Brother Lin, look..." Shi Dongchen smiled very desolately.

Lin Li, on the contrary, felt that Hu Fei was becoming more and more interesting, so he simply took out a whole bundle of chocolate from the snake-skin bag and placed it beside Hu Fei:

"No matter how your shelter divides it, this bundle is yours. Now, take these things and go back with them."

Hu Fei then got up, hugged the chocolate, looked at Lin Li, and said happily: "Big brother, only Lin Li is my big brother!"

"What if Shi Dongchen says he will give you two bundles separately later?" Big brother Lin Li asked.

"Then he is my little brother!" Hu Fei answered every question.

Lin Li gave a thumbs up upon hearing this. He really is a stable fence-sitter.

After getting permission, Hu Fei carried a snake-skin bag in each hand and followed Shi Dongchen away on his back.

Lin Li noticed that the veins in Hu Fei's arms didn't bulge, which is indeed not in the category of normal people. He couldn't do it as calmly as him even after using 【Power Accumulation】.

If only he could awaken some superpower too.

Time stop, hypnosis, world modulation mode, anything is fine, Lin Li is not picky. Ye Jing disappeared from his field of vision first, presumably to lure away the surrounding zombies to prevent Hu Fei from being attacked on the way back to the shelter.

After the three left, Lin Li found a building nearby to go upstairs, lay on the snake-skin bag, looked at the sky, and waited for the passage of time and the arrival of kitchenware.

When Ye Jing brought Hu Fei back, nearly two hours had passed.

4:00 PM in the apocalypse.

It's about time to start preparing dinner.

This environment is also a big project.

"Big brother! Sister-in-law! Where are you!" Hu Fei, carrying the snake-skin bag, shouted loudly in the middle of the road, seemingly not caring whether it would attract zombies.

"Here."

After Ye Jing and Hu Fei came up, Lin Li opened the snake-skin bag that had contained food not long ago.

Now, on top is a bucket of water, and underneath are tableware and kitchenware.

!

They should have been specially washed, and basically, they were all very clean.

"Is this bucket of water enough?" Ye Jing walked over and asked.

"Enough." Lin Li nodded and took the things out one by one and arranged them.

"Uncle Shi stayed at the shelter to process the supplies you sent. He will come over after processing. If you have any instructions, press the communicator now, and he will come immediately." Ye Jing explained later.

"Okay, no need for now."

At the bottom, there was even an irregularly shaped gold nugget, which looked like the one they said they had just knocked off. It was very heavy, conservatively estimated at ten pounds.

That's at least another three million.

Although he doesn't really need it, as a person who has detached from high-level interests, Lin Li is still happy to get it.

"Is there anything I can help with? I also know some cooking." Seeing Lin Li start to organize the tableware, Ye Jing stepped forward and volunteered.

"There really is." Lin Li nodded.

"Great!"

Lin Li pointed to the snake-skin bag and said to Ye Jing, who rolled up her sleeves and prepared to wash her hands: "Help me put the beautiful lady together."

Ye Jing: "?"

"Keep her in human form, thank you." Lin Li said very politely.

"Okay..." Ye Jing put down her rolled-up sleeves, swallowed hard, and began this arduous task.

"Sister-in-law, tell me if it hurts..." Standing in front of the beautiful lady, she hesitated for a while, remembered Shi Dongchen's exhortation, and said in a low voice.

—Shi Dongchen: Ye Jing, remember, from now on, the beautiful lady is not a zombie, she is a living beautiful lady!

"Big Brother Lin, then what should I do." Hu Fei squatted aside, took a piece of chocolate from his pocket, and asked while eating.

"Can you cook?"

"I'm very good at eating."

"Then just stay aside and chat with me." Lin Li said with a smile.

Hu Fei nodded, then looked up at the sky: "Sky, hmm, sky, the sky looks like the sky, sky..."

Then he scratched his head: "Big Brother Lin Li, I can only chat about this much."

"Hu Fei, what is your superpower?" Ignoring Hu Fei's hardcore chatting about the 'sky', Lin Li asked while processing the ingredients.

"Big brother, my name is Hu Xiaojing." Hu Fei emphasized before answering.

"Okay, Xiaojing, what is your superpower?"

"I'm very hard, my whole body is very hard." Hu Fei said, picked up a piece of gravel on the ground, and smashed it against his forehead.

Except for leaving a dust print, there was indeed no injury.

"Is your strength affected?"

"Oh, also, my strength is also very great."

"Can you beat zombies?"

"I can beat them. They can't grab or bite me, but I can keep hitting them. I'm not afraid of zombies at all, uh, I'm not afraid of idiots who are as brainless as me." Hu Fei seemed to remember that zombies have variants and specifically added.

"How did you awaken?"

"I suddenly became powerful when I was fighting zombies."

"..."

After asking about Hu Fei's personal information through questions and answers, Lin Li changed to ask about the situation of the shelter.

"How many people are in your shelter now?"

"Big Brother Lin Li, I promised little brother and others not to tell outsiders about the shelter." Hu Fei hesitated for a while upon hearing this.

"Then don't you just say it seriously?" Lin Li asked in confusion upon hearing this.

Hu Fei froze for a moment, then suddenly realized, his eyes became clear: "That's right!"

"Big Brother Lin Li, our shelter now has more than two hundred people..." Hu Fei's attitude became much more upright, his sitting posture became serious, and he began to seriously leak information.

Ye Jing on the side: "..."

People are already stupid, and you are still teasing them.

However, she didn't stop it. Shi Dongchen and she now intend to strengthen the connection between Lin Li and the shelter as much as possible, and hope he can "visit" the shelter or even choose a place to "stay" or use it as a foothold.

Regarding the information about the shelter, after getting those foods, even if Lin Li asks her now, she will tell everything in detail.

Putting the bone-beaten meat balls into boiling water to boil, Lin Li also had an understanding of the situation in the shelter.

The scale is not small or large, about two hundred people.

Living underground, to be precise, it is the use of the entire underground parking lot of a residential area after it was opened up. The footprint is quite large.

In order to avoid the shelter being discovered by zombies, their main way of leaving the shelter is to first bypass a tunnel of nearly a hundred meters and come to the ground from an area outside the residential area.

There is a passage directly from the residential area, and their "farmland" is also in the residential area, but its use must be cautious to ensure that the surrounding zombies have been lured away by Ye Jing.

There are not many people with supernatural abilities, only about twenty, and most of them are abilities with little effect. People like Ye Jing and Hu Fei are already the best in the shelter.

The shelter now relies on continuing to search for food externally, and secondly on planting crops in the residential area, but it is in short supply. Everyone has not really eaten their fill for a long time.

Water sources rely on storing precipitation and filtering, and the situation is much better than food.

The electricity in the shelter previously relied on fuel power generation, and now it mainly relies on solar energy to maintain it, and it has tried its best to maintain lighting.

As for thermal weapons, there are only a dozen usable firearms, and only over a thousand rounds of ammunition left—but nearly a thousand rounds have been damp and are prone to problems.

It is indeed a shelter living very hard.

"Phew—"

Lin Li opened the pot lid, steaming hot.

It is now 6:30 PM on Mingyuan Star, and the sky is gradually getting dark. Although zombie activity has nothing to do with day and night, not being able to see is a danger to humans.

The upper limit of staying in this world is less than an hour.

Pouring out the dishes, Lin Li held the bowl and scooped up a meat ball with a spoon, and came to Ye Jing's side.

"Open your mouth."

"Ah—"

"I'm asking you to help the beautiful lady open her mouth."

Ye Jing: "..."

Ye Jing immediately closed her mouth.

Damn, so shameful! I want to find a hole to crawl into!

Then she helped as Lin Li ordered, watching Lin Li scoop a spoonful of meat soup into the beautiful lady's mouth, and it leaked out of her mouth.

"Help me stuff it into her stomach, thank you." Lin Li didn't care about this result and said to Ye Jing.

Gratified, with Ye Jing here, he doesn't need to do these disgusting jobs himself.

Ye Jing: Damn.

"Is it delicious?"

After Ye Jing finished, Lin Li looked at the beautiful lady.

This time, without Lin Li's eye signal, Ye Jing controlled the beautiful lady to nod.

"If it's delicious, eat more. Why don't you eat it all? I'm actually full, after all, beauty is appetizing." After Lin Li finished speaking, he looked at the system expectantly.

No reaction.

Damn, beauty is not for eating?

Then there is no way.

Lin Li changed to a brand new spoon, washed it repeatedly several times, took off his helmet and mask, and Lin Li first smelled it with the fan method.

It can only be said that his cooking talent is still playing stably. With seasonings and ingredients brought from Earth, the taste is still quite fragrant and appetizing.

Looking at this dish made in collaboration with the beautiful lady, Lin Li took a deep breath.

It should be sa, fe.

Do it, brothers!

【Deeply kiss the beautiful lady on the forehead... (4/4)】
