Chapter 1113 Rest
The moon was bright in the sky, and the milky white moonlight was sprinkled on the earth. The ice and snow on the ground reflected the moonlight, like a dream.
Xinshi.
Old Xie, Huang Zheng and others who had traveled north from the Dazhangshu Base were stationed in an abandoned factory around Xinshi.
The vehicles they drove were quite large, and it was not easy to find a suitable shelter.
Generally, places like factory buildings or driving schools are more suitable.
Old Xie was bald in his middle age and had a kind temper. Although he was a member of the inner city of the Dazhangshu Base and was also a person who joined the Dazhangshu Base relatively early.
This time, he should have led the team, but Huang Zheng often fought external battles and often traveled between the Dazhangshu Base and the Oil City, so Old Xie asked him to lead the team all the way.
"Old Xie, I guess we will be able to reach the Oil City the day after tomorrow." After Huang Zheng arranged the duty matters, he saw Old Xie sitting in the car in a daze, so he came over to chat with him.
"Very good, faster than I thought." Old Xie nodded and put away the photos in his hand.
When he put away the photo, Huang Zheng saw a woman in the photo and guessed that she should be Lao Xie's wife.
Huang Zheng looked up at the windshield of the car. The abandoned factory looked scary. Under the moonlight, there was a strange atmosphere.
"Lao Xie, how long have you been in the base?" Huang Zheng asked suddenly.
"Me." Lao Xie was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it carefully and said:
"Almost three years, at first I was in Jiefang City, then Jiefang City collapsed, I was displaced, and joined the Dazhangshu Base with Captain Lu."
"What about you? I remember you came from Chengzizhoutou before, right?"
Lao Xie asked back.
Huang Zheng nodded and said:
"Yes, in fact, when we were at Chengzi Island, a lot of things happened. I saw many survivors killing each other because of hunger and weather, but I was powerless."
"Sometimes I feel numb."
Old Xie looked at him for a while and said softly:
"It's not that you are numb, but reason has overcome emotion. Wear shoes that fit your feet and do things that fit your abilities. Do your best and don't think too much about the rest, otherwise it will torture yourself."
Huang Zheng was thoughtful when he heard what Old Xie said.
It was cold at night, and the temperature inside and outside the car was different. A layer of frost condensed on the car windows.
The two chatted and had a deeper understanding of each other's past and gradually became familiar with each other.
Oil City.
Li Yu made an induction cooker in the room, found two cans and a box of dried mushrooms from the stored food, and also brought vermicelli from the headquarters base.
Gululu--
The water has boiled.
Li Yu threw the vermicelli into the boiling water.
Vermicelli is slow to cook, so cook it for a while longer.
He was hungry most of the time in his previous life, which made him have a strong desire for food and cherish any food.
In this life, there is enough food, but it still does not change his desire for food. Only when he is full, he will feel at ease.
He likes this feeling.
When night falls, he steams food alone in the room, and this feeling makes him very satisfied.
After throwing the vermicelli in, he pulled out the dagger and inserted it into the pork can, cut the iron sheet with the blade, and picked the pork inside into the boiling water with a knife.
This can of pork was found in Gan Xiong's underground warehouse. When he found the warehouse, Li Yu was shocked by the huge number of cans.
This can of pork is very well sealed and has a long shelf life.
It has been eaten in the big camphor tree base for a year, and it has not been eaten yet.
But this thing, generally speaking, is not eaten when it is at the headquarters of the big camphor tree base, but only as emergency food when going out.
Or it is sent to the oil city.
The pork in the can was already salty, so Li Yu didn't add any more salt.
He picked up the pot, poured water into the clean can, washed off the remaining pork residue and the oil and water inside, and finally poured them into the pot to cook together.
After putting the vermicelli and pork in, he slowly threw the dried mushrooms into the boiling pot.
In the end times, mushrooms and bean sprouts are the easiest to grow, so these two dishes are often available in the base.
The dried mushrooms are processed by the food processing factory managed by the second uncle and transported to the oil city as a kind of dried vegetables.
While waiting for the food to cook slowly, he opened another can of fruit, which contained tangerines.
He took a sip of the sweet juice inside, which was icy and cool, and made Li Yu lick his lips with satisfaction.
While eating the canned fruit, he waited for the pork, mushrooms and vermicelli stew to be cooked. There was also heating in the room, which made Li Yu feel quite happy.
The Northern Federation won't be able to handle it in a short time, but people have to rest.
Halfway through the canned fruit, the food in the pot was cooked. Li Yu didn't use a bowl to serve it. He directly turned off the power of the induction cooker and moved the pot to eat in front of him.
Thin--
Li Yu took a bite of dried vermicelli and frowned. It was almost salty.
So he found a wooden jar from the canvas bag, poured some salt into the palm of his hand, sprinkled it in the pot, and then stirred it with chopsticks for a while to let the salt fully mix into the soup.
"Well, it's almost done now."
The mushrooms swelled in the hot water, soft and tender.
The vermicelli was soaked in the pork juice, refreshing and smooth.
Big chunks of pork, although a little dry, but it's great. Putting one piece at a time into the mouth, the whole mouth is bulging, making people feel the happiness of eating meat.
Eat with relish.
Li Yu's eating appearance is not good-looking. To be precise, it looks like he hasn't eaten for several days.
But Yutong always thinks that he eats very well like this, at least it makes people who watch him eat have a better appetite.
Gulp gulp——
Li Yu even drank up all the soup inside.
He picked up the canned tangerine fruit again with an unsatisfied mind and finished the remaining half of the can.
He just ate meat and sucked vermicelli, which was hot, and the heating was turned on in the room, causing him to sweat all over.
He took off the outer clothes casually, leaving only the inner single clothes.
Gulp——
The sweet juice of the canned tangerine is like the finale of a symphony, which makes people feel refreshed.
He had just hurriedly finished eating vermicelli and pork, and his forehead was sweating. At this time, the cool and sweet fruit juice entered his mouth.
It was like drinking a glass of iced cola when he was thirsty in the summer desert.
It made people feel so refreshed.
He drank the last drop of canned fruit juice.
"Ha"
He took a long breath, just like drinking a big mouthful of cola, always making that refreshing aftertaste.
Satisfied, down-to-earth, happy to eat, and comfortable to drink.
The most beautiful thing in life is eating and drinking.
Before the end of the world, eating and drinking were the easiest to satisfy, but busy people always regarded eating as a task.
Forgot the joy of eating and drinking, just regarded eating as a job to maintain the necessary supply of the body, and there was no fun at all.
The easier it is to wait for something, the less you will cherish it.
Before the end of the world, even if it was a delicious food, people were entangled in various troubles and trivialities, so that they did not have the mood and senses to appreciate it carefully, and could not appreciate the beauty in it.
In the end times, it is because of the lack of food that a piece of expired biscuit can be chewed, allowing saliva to mix with starch. People will close their eyes, maximize their sense of taste and smell, and taste the sweet taste.
For most people in the end times, a bowl of hot noodles, without salt or oil, boiled in water, they can also taste the feeling of top-notch food.
If people have never been hungry, they will not know the beauty of food and the happiness it brings.
No matter what kind of environment you are in, you always have to find fun for yourself, otherwise it will be too painful.
Click!
Li Yu lit a cigarette and slowly exhaled the smoke.
Comfortable!
He got up, walked to the window leisurely, and reached out to touch the glass window.
A layer of frost condensed on the window, icy and cold.
Wipe off the frost with your hand and look outside through the window.
The searchlight on the sentry tower moved slowly, illuminating the outside.
On the ground, a team of patrol officers passed by.
Li Yu looked at everything in front of him, which slowly became blurred, and the frost condensed again.
The next day.
Northern Federation.
A sound of footsteps woke up He Feng and the others. They opened their sleepy eyes and looked at the person walking in the door.
Because of the backlight, they could only see the outline of the person coming in, but not the person's appearance.
"He Feng. Haven't seen each other for a few days." A familiar voice sounded from the front.
"Fan Haiyang, Captain Fan?" He Feng recognized the man's voice.
"It's me. I'm here to take you out." Fan Haiyang said as he looked at He Feng, who was lying on the ground with a cloth wrapped around his legs.
His tone was a bit complicated. He had gone south to the oil city with He Feng and the others before. They had faced zombies together on the way and overcame difficulties together.
But as Wu Jianguo left the Northern Territory, he felt deeply sympathetic to the experience of He Feng and the others after they returned.
But even if he sympathized, he couldn't do anything. After all, it was tacitly approved by the Governor.
Once he helped, Tian Yunxiao would drag him down with him, and he would be finished by then.
But who would have thought that the people in Oil City would be so terrifying, and they would pin the Northern Federation to the ground. Now the people that Oil City wants, the Northern Federation must hand them over even if they don't want to.
Hearing what Fan Haiyang said, Ma Dong stood up.
"Send us out? Where, Oil City?" Ma Dong asked excitedly.
Fan Haiyang looked at them with complicated eyes, nodded and said, "Yes, you guys cooperate."
"It's true, it's true, the captain really brought people to rescue us, so good!" Ma Dong turned around excitedly and pounded the wall of the cell with his hand.
Hiss!
After he pounded the wall, he gasped in pain.
Pain!
It hurts so much!
When he and Mingsheng were punished to repair the river before, their hands were frozen and cracked with chilblains.
Ten fingers, eight of which were wrapped with cloth strips.
This knock directly broke the wound, and the ten fingers were connected to the heart, and the pain was piercing!
Although it hurt, he couldn't stop smiling.
There was a burst of joy in the cell.
But only one person was in a very bad mood.
This person was Sima Xi, who was huddled against the wall. His hands and feet were tied, and his mouth was sealed with a cloth. He looked at Fan Haiyang coming in with a sad look in his eyes.
"Cooperate with me."
"Tie them up."
Fan Haiyang waved his hand and asked his men behind him to come in and tie their hands one by one.
After all, they would be in the helicopter later, and He Feng and the others were special combat personnel who had undergone two years of special training by Wu Jianguo, and they had rich combat experience.
We have to be on guard.
Soon.
They lined up one by one, and slowly left the cell with real guns and weapons.
Coming out of the underground cell, the morning sun shone brightly on He Feng's face. He raised his head to feel the breeze and the heat of the sun.
Having been locked up in the cell without seeing the sun for some time, he was in a good mood now. More importantly, they were about to leave the quagmire of the Northern Federation.
Soon, they would meet their captain.
People are refreshed when they are happy.
With light steps, He Feng and others boarded the two helicopters.
In addition to Fan Haiyang, Yuan Youzhi also accompanied him on this trip.
On the way, some combatants who had some interactions with He Feng and others saw their figures and their eyes were indescribably complicated.
Originally, they felt a little sorry for them.
But now the situation is very different.
He Feng and his people have joined a powerful force that can control zombies, while they are trapped in the Northern Federation surrounded by tens of millions of zombies. They don't know what the future will be like, and whether they can survive is an unknown.
On the helicopter.
After they were all seated, the helicopter slowly took off and flew towards the direction of Oil City.
On the ground, many people looked at the helicopter in the sky.
Including Yuan Zhi on the top floor of the Governor's Mansion, looking at the helicopter going away, he sighed in his heart: "I hope this can calm the anger of Oil City."
He was not sure whether this would work, but at least he knew that if he didn't do this, the people of Oil City would definitely bomb them again.
Looking at the dense tide of zombies outside, he frowned and never relaxed.
Buzz---
The helicopter flew straight towards the direction of Oil City.
In the sky.
Fan Haiyang looked down at the zombies on the ground and could see more comprehensively.
This was the most zombies he had seen since the end of the world, and it was also the most terrifying picture he had seen in his life.
Zombies were like ants, everywhere, as if there was no edge.
They flew for more than two hours and landed on a flat ground around Zheng City to refuel the helicopter.
On the way, He Feng and the others looked outside with excitement, with a lot of thoughts in their hearts.
Sima Xi huddled in a corner, silent, with his eyes flickering from time to time, as if he was looking for an opportunity to escape.
But how could Yuan Youzhi, who was accompanying him, let him escape? He sat opposite him and watched over him.
If Sima Xi escaped or died on the way, he would not be able to explain to Yuan Zhi or Oil City.
As for what would happen to Sima Xi after he was transported to Oil City, that was not something he considered.
The helicopter landed, Sima Xi kept twisting his body, and winked at Yuan Youzhi frantically.
Yuan Youzhi stood up impatiently and pulled the cloth out of his mouth.
"What?"
"I want to go to the toilet!" Sima Xi said eagerly, and then his legs kept twisting, as if he really couldn't hold it anymore.
Yuan Youzhi raised his eyebrows and said, "Just pee in your crotch."
"I'm pooping!" Sima Xi said angrily.
"Oh." Yuan Youzhi ignored him and stuffed the cloth back into his mouth.
Sima Xi looked at Yuan Youzhi with resentment and hatred.
Yuan Youzhi saw that he looked at him with such eyes, and he ignored it and turned his head to look in other directions.
After a while.
A foul smell spread.
Yuan Youzhi sniffed and found that it came from Sima Xi.
He retched for a while and couldn't help cursing: "You fucking horse!"
"Brother Yuan, do you want to take him down to deal with it?" The team member sitting next to Sima Xi covered his nose and couldn't stand it.
Yuan Youzhi was angry and said: "No!"
"I want to see if you feel uncomfortable! Damn it!"
Seeing that there was no way to get off the helicopter, Sima Xi's face changed, and his face was as ferocious as a roaring wild dog.
"Don't pay attention to him, let him pull." Seeing him like this, Yuan Youzhi said to the team members.
The team members sitting on both sides of Sima Xi really couldn't stand the stench, so they quickly moved away from Sima Xi, sat opposite, and looked at Sima Xi straight.
Looking at Sima Xi's disgusted eyes, it was as if he was looking at a pile of stinky dog shit.
Ten minutes later.
The team members who were refueling the helicopter came in from outside and smelled a strong stench.
"Fuck, who pooped in the helicopter! It stinks! Yue~"
Everyone in the helicopter looked at Sima Xi, but Sima Xi still didn't feel embarrassed, but the soft and sticky under his butt made him feel uncomfortable.
Fan Haiyang was not in this helicopter and was spared.
"Filled, let's go!" Fan Haiyang picked up the walkie-talkie to contact Yuan Youzhi and others.
"Okay."
Buzz buzz buzz——
The helicopter took off and continued to fly towards the direction of the oil city.
