After Fu Shinan woke up, Man Yu had already prepared the meal. They all took a sip of the porridge, but Fu Shinan noticed the absence of Sun Han and MO Cheng. She casually asked, “Did they go out to search for supplies?”

“Ji Zan said he was going to a distant place today to find supplies, so he took Sun Han and MO Cheng with him. Xia Dong is still hiding in his room due to his lack of abilities, and Professor Feng is playing with Chang’an,” Man Yu replied.

Fu Shinan guessed that Ji Zan probably went to Cao Yong’s previous farm, and she couldn’t help but worry. She wondered if Cao Yong had predicted their arrival and set up traps. But before she could finish her thoughts, they heard a loud bang from outside, as if something had collapsed.

Man Yu got startled and quickly went out to see what happened. She immediately exclaimed, “There’s a fire! How did this happen?”

Fu Shinan also went out and noticed that the second floor was filled with smoke, and flames were bursting out of the damaged areas. All their food supplies were stacked near the windows on the second floor, originally to protect them from damage, but now they became fuel for the fire. She immediately called Xia Dong and Man Yu to salvage the food.

At this point, the second floor was already filled with thick smoke.

Xia Dong hastily grabbed a wet towel and handed it to Fu Shinan.

Fu Shinan took the towel and quickly ran to the food supplies, but the flames were already over a meter high, completely engulfing the food. In the thick smoke, a hand grabbed Fu Shinan and said, “Don’t go, it’s beyond saving.”

Looking at the tall figure in the black smoke, Fu Shinan immediately recognized it as Da Fei, who had been recovering from injuries.

Xia Dong had rushed over, enduring the pain from the scorching heat, and tugged on a sack of rice. However, the bag had already caught fire, and with his forceful pull, the rice spilled all over the floor. The flames quickly engulfed the rice on the ground, intensifying the fire.

Professor Feng came with a basin of water, but compared to the raging fire, it was ineffective.

Seeing that it was truly impossible to save anything, and further delay would endanger everyone, Fu Shinan shouted for everyone to quickly evacuate downstairs. But as soon as they reached the yard, there was a loud boom, and the second floor collapsed, completely engulfed in flames.

Xiao Chang’an was terrified and clung to Professor Feng’s leg.

Professor Feng held his sacks of seeds in one hand and embraced Xiao Chang’an with the other, his face looking extremely grim.

Xia Dong couldn’t help but curse, “Damn it, how did the fire start? Is fate trying to kill us?!” He covered his hand, which had blistered from the burns, and felt the urge to smash something. The fire had started too quickly, leaving no time to react.

Man Yu, her face covered in soot, asked, “Could it be a problem with the electrical circuit? Over time, did it catch fire?” As she spoke, she glanced at her only laptop, hoping it wasn’t damaged.

Da Fei, his hand pressed against his still bleeding wound, frowned and said, “It’s unlikely. We don’t even have major electrical appliances here; we don’t use that much electricity. It’s more likely an external cause.” He was about to go to the east side of the building to investigate, but Fu Shinan grabbed him and said, “Don’t go, something’s not right. Let’s wait and see.”

Professor Feng’s expression was grim. “What do we do now? Are we just going to watch our base burn? We’ll have nowhere to go.”

Fu Shinan surveyed the building. “A fire this big would be difficult to put out even before the apocalypse. Not to mention now, when we don’t even have proper tools…”

Professor Feng looked regretful. “It’s a shame that the two pots of sprouted seeds were destroyed. They might have borne fruit in a month. Now everything is ruined!”

“The base is gone, but we can find another one, and the seeds can be replanted. As long as we’re all safe, that’s what matters. Let’s get in the car. The house is likely to collapse with such a huge fire, and it’s not safe for us to stay here.” Fu Shinan picked up Xiao Chang’an and sat in her car.

Man Yu followed suit, feeling dejected. “We finally found a decent shelter, and now it’s all burned down. Maybe we should go back to the original underground shelter? At least we have a place there.”

“We can consider leaving after Ji Zan and the others come back. Let’s wait and see,” Fu Shinan said, knowing that the underground shelter couldn’t accommodate everyone, and besides, there was some people there.

Just as the base was about to collapse from the fire and the smoke was rising higher and higher, Ji Zan and the others returned.

MO Cheng jumped down and said, “What’s going on?””

“We don’t know what’s going on either. We were eating when we suddenly smelled smoke!” Xia Dong said with an ugly expression. When he went up to the second floor, he realized that the fire had burned all the food. Not a single bag was saved!”

Ji Zan walked into the courtyard and looked at the collapsed buildings falling from the sky. Dust mixed with smoke and dust filled the air around him, but his body was still standing straight, motionless and silent.

MO Cheng was afraid that he would be in danger, so he quickly pulled him back.”Brother Ji, let’s go out..”
