Chapter 656 It's Snowing All over the Sky, Cooking Hot Pot Around the Stove
In Poyang Lake, a group of people were blocking the broken wall, but they were shivering under the ice and snow.
The cold wind, bone-chilling cold.
The task was huge and they had been working through blizzards for several days.
Dongfeng and others braved the cold wind and snow to build a strong line of defense with their hands. They continued to dig in the snow and carry materials, and the wall was gradually improved through their efforts.
The walls were made of large stones and heavy timbers stacked together to form a tall barrier.
Dongfeng and others tied these materials together with steel wires and ropes to ensure the stability of the fence. They also nailed the fence to the ground with wooden stakes to prevent it from blowing down in wind and snow.
Not only do they have to build a wall, but they also need to guard against zombie invasion at any time.
Because in a blizzard, the sunlight is refracted by the falling snow, and there is less direct sunlight, so even in the daytime, many zombies come out.
"The zombies are coming!" Lao Niu, who had been watching, shouted to the people who were building a fence behind.
When Dongfeng heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing and shouted to Lao Niu and others outside the wall: "Come in first, don't stay outside."
They cooperated tacitly, quickly put down the things in their hands, and ran straight into the wall.
From the looks of it, this isn't the first time I've done something like this.
Skilled people feel distressed.
Inside the wall, Dongfeng and others were waiting, holding spears in their hands, standing on the high scaffolding inside the wall, watching the zombies walking out in the wind and snow.
The cold snow fell on his eyebrows, gradually melted due to body temperature, but because it was really cold outside, it condensed into ice again, sticking to his eyebrows.
cold, very cold.
But they have to do this, because if they don't, they won't be able to sleep well at night, and zombies will come in from the broken holes at any time outside the wall.
The wind and snow belong to the people.
Lao Zhuang's fever slowly turned from low to high. His whole body felt hot and his skin was as red as boiled shrimp.
"Cold, cold, cold!" Lao Zhuang's teeth chattered. Even if they changed a car, in order to save diesel, they dare not drive the car to the maximum. It consumes too much energy and can only maintain it at zero degrees. about.
Seeing how uncomfortable Lao Zhuang was, someone suggested: "Why don't you turn up the air conditioner temperature?"
"Hey, I turned it up just now. Brother Zhuang said it was hot again, cold and hot at the same time. This"
Lao Zhuang was still somewhat conscious. He trembled his lips and said slowly: "It's okay. Don't worry about me. Just keep driving. We'll go back to the base first."
Seeing that Lao and Zhuang had already said this, the person who just suggested to turn up the air conditioner said nothing more.
This way, the road is too difficult to walk.
First, when descending from the Sanshan Village, I got lost, and then the car was damaged after going down the mountain. I finally found a car that was not scrapped, but found that the road was covered by heavy snow and the road was extremely difficult to drive.
The other people in the car had their lips turned purple from the cold. If they had known what would happen if they came out, they would never have thought of it.
Bang bang bang——
The snow outside the window violently hit the car window glass, making a heavy knocking sound.
In the blizzard and snowstorm, they did not dare to drive too fast. One was because they could not see too far away, and the other was that the road surface was slippery. If they were not careful, they would easily overturn.
If the car rolled over or hit something again, they would have to report here.
Everyone in the car was miserable and felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
Gan Hu and others, who were luckier than them, finally chose to retreat after visiting and investigating the situation in the winery.
Desperately set foot on the road back to the Western Union.
The blizzard was also uncomfortable for them because there were so many people and it also attracted some zombies to chase them.
And they didn't dare to get out of the car. Once they got out of the car, they would be easily attacked by zombies covered by the wind and snow.
So far, two cars have lost contact, both of which were the last.
They don't know how long this snow will last, so they can only find a way to return to the Western Conference as soon as possible.
Even if you stay here, choose a shelter to stay in.
But the food will be exhausted. When they run out of food, there will only be one outcome, death!
It's better to return to the base quickly while you still have physical strength and food.
This is a road full of dangers.
Big camphor tree base.
After Li Yu returned to the inner city from the wall, he suddenly felt like eating hot pot.
In the inner city, Anya, Xiaoshi and others were in the greenhouse, moving the seedlings of crops into the greenhouse.
Those greenhouses that have not been activated have not turned on the heating for the time being, so they do not consume a lot of electricity.
However, as Anya and the others gradually process the crops in the greenhouse, the electricity consumption of the greenhouse will increase to a higher value.
Li Yu wants to eat hot pot.
As the leader of the Da Zhangshu Base, having built this base with your own hands, you must have privileges.
If nothing else, let’s just say that in addition to the large kitchen in the cafeteria, several villas in the central area of the inner city also have kitchens installed inside.
There is a refrigerator, and there is always some food in the refrigerator so that Li Yu and others can access it at any time when they are hungry.
Li Yu came to the underground plantation and picked some pea seedlings, cabbage, and some cucumbers.
He had the key to the warehouse, so he immediately went to the freezer to get some beef and mutton, and took these things back to the sun room on the top floor of the villa area.
There are glass windows on all sides and some green plants are placed inside.
Outside the house, there is heavy snow.
Li Yu took out an electric pot, a Yuanyang pot, from the villa.
Shiitake mushrooms, shallots, pour into boiling water.
The wind and snow outside the window whirred.
Li Yu took out the walkie-talkie and called Yutong who was off today.
Today, I just want to eat hot pot suddenly, so there is no need to call too many people. Let's hold a bigger event together after the greenhouse is ready.
Besides, Da Pao, Li Tie and the others also have things to do at hand, so it's inconvenient to call them over.
Wearing a turtleneck sweater, Yu Tong pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing Li Yu standing behind the glass puffing away his smoke, he glanced around and saw the steaming pot on the table next to him, as well as vegetables, beef and mutton. He smiled and said, "Why do you want to eat hot pot today?"
Li Yu turned his head, a smile flickered on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I just want to eat."
Yutong didn't say anything. She walked over and helped separate the vegetables. Then she took the uncut beef and mutton to the small table next to her and cut them into thin slices with a knife.
chili powder, soy sauce, vinegar
Place them on the table one by one.
Li Yu pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, and said to Yu Tong mysteriously, "What do you want to drink?"
Yutong asked suspiciously, "Is there anything else to drink?"
Li Yu smiled, and then pulled out a tea-making set from the small table next to him: "I'll make you a duck droppings bergamot tea!"
Yutong smiled and nodded, saying hello, his eyes were full of happiness.
Lemons taken out of the freezer and water made from aged black tea.
Ice-breaking hammer, shaking.
Outside the house, it seems like the end of the ice and snow world.
Inside the house, it was steaming and smelling of fireworks.
Just separated by a piece of explosion-proof glass, the gap between the inside and outside of the room is so big that it makes people stare out their eyes.
This meal of hot pot has been eaten for a long time.
The heavy snow outside the window turned into the background of their eating hot pot. Li Yu took his time, relaxed his mind, and quietly tasted the food in front of him.
outer city.
The zombie generators made by Zhou Ran and Li Hang are very fast, at a rate of 30 to 40 generators per day.
They have set up a group specializing in the production of zombie generators, with Li Hang, He Bing, and Zhou Ran as the core, plus Wang Cheng and others.
The small factory building has also been doubled in size, and it is in full swing.
As for the materials for making zombie generators, these days, non-staff personnel and cooperative personnel have exchanged them and hoarded them a lot.
The core power of the zombie generator is zombies, so there is no need to worry about this thing.
There are everywhere outside this fence, and you can catch one at random.
Whenever they make ten zombie generators, they will be tested by Zhou Ran and Wang Cheng, and then the zombie generators and the zombies will be pulled to a residential building in the Second Outer City.
At this time, there were already nearly 200 zombie generators on the second floor of the residential building, which looked quite spectacular.
Zhizhizhi——
During the walking of the zombies, the pull bars of the zombie generators are affected to continuously generate electricity.
"Hey! It's a bit cold in here. To be honest, this place that specializes in producing electricity does not consume any electricity. Isn't it unreasonable?" Wang Cheng said to Zhou Ran on the side.
Zhou Ran looked at the battery bag placed on the ground, nodded and said, "Yes, it still needs to be kept above five degrees in here, otherwise the temperature will be too low, which will not be good for the battery."
Think and act.
After they placed the zombie generators, they immediately installed several heaters on the second floor and increased the air humidity on the second floor.
Zombies like water and hate light. They are more mobile in dark and humid environments.
Therefore, the humidity on the second floor of this residential building has also increased a lot, just to increase the mobility of the zombies.
In the first outer city.
Blizzard whirring.
Since the greenhouse was built, the Dazhangshu base has not distributed any food to them. However, they also have some stored food. These are the food they save after doing tasks with the base, or the base gives them every month. food.
Joining the non-staff personnel has this advantage, at least they will not starve to death. Of course, they will not be full just by relying on the food distributed to the non-staff personnel by the Da Zhangshu Base.
Zuo Ruxue and the others all steamed food in the greenhouse. The cooking method was extremely simple. They just used an iron pot, pulled some snow outside, plugged in the electricity, and heated it.
At least, electricity can still be used at the Dazhangshu base.
At night, the snoring in the shed was quite noisy.
But compared with the greenhouses of the collaborators next to them, their side is already much better.
In the greenhouse with thousands of people, foot odor, body odor, and various unknown smells mixed together to form an indescribable stench.
Even if the ventilation system is always on, after all, there are too many people, and the smell emitted by the human body is difficult to eliminate.
So they occasionally opened the door to let in the cold wind, but soon the people sleeping next to the door protested.
Every time it is opened, cold air of more than 20 degrees below zero blows in, which can make someone catch a cold and make them sick in less than two minutes.
So, under the protest of many people, the door of the greenhouse was never opened again.
It is tens of kilometers away from the camphor tree base.
There is a team of collaborators.
The people in this group are Dong Dagui's team who accepted the food loan from Da Zhangshu Base but failed to return it through the mission.
At this time, a dozen of them were huddled in a private house on the edge of a small town.
This private house is relatively well preserved, but no matter how complete it is, it cannot block the cold air outside.
This kind of coldness not only comes in through the gaps in the glass and door, but also seeps out from the ground.
The temperature reached minus twenty-nine degrees.
They had never seen this kind of temperature in the entire south before the end of the world.
In other words, before the end of the world, they had hardly seen snow a few times in their lives.
The snowfall in 2002 was truly the biggest snowfall I had ever seen.
The snow now is ten times more exaggerated than the snow at that time.
For several days in a row, the constant blizzard and falling temperature made them miserable.
"Dagyu, it's too cold today. You have to think of a solution quickly. Uncle Er can't hold on any longer." A woman who looked sharp and mean said to Dong Dagui, who was standing in the middle.
Dong Dagui was a little helpless. He lit firewood indoors, but there was not much firewood left, and there were zombies outside. If he went out to get wood, he might accidentally be bitten to death by zombies.
He's the leader of the team, but not really the leader either.
It just so happened that everyone looked down on each other, so he was elected in a compromise.
Every time a decision is made, everyone ignores him and discusses on their own.
But every time there are problems and difficulties, he has to solve them.
"Second Aunt, ugh. I told you back then that we must not treat the people at Da Zhangshu Base as fools. It's okay for them to lend us food and carry out some tasks.
If the mission is carried out, they will not be wanted by them later. Looking at the Dazhangshu base before, maybe we will be allowed to escape the cold inside. "
Dong Dagui felt helpless. At the beginning, he tried his best to persuade everyone to carry out the task, but he was stopped by everyone's words.
Especially the second aunt, who yelled very loudly, and the second uncle also listened to the second aunt.
well.
When the second aunt heard what Dong Dagui said, she spread her hands and said loudly:
"Hahaha! Now you are starting to blame me. You are the one who took the lead. We are just giving you opinions. Have you made the decision? How can we stop you? Besides, that big camphor tree base He's not a good person, he's so stingy, just give us a little food, and ask us to carry out the mission, how dangerous it is."
As soon as she finished speaking, a man with a gloomy face next to her also said: "We can't suffer a loss. At worst, we won't cooperate with the Da Zhangshu Base. Second sister, it's a bit cold in this room. I just went out to collect firewood." , now it's your turn."
Others rolled their eyes, seeing that the firewood was about to burn out, and the temperature in the room dropped rapidly.
They all opened their mouths and said to her: "Yes, yes, now you should go to pick up wood. This room is about to freeze to death."
When Aunt Dong Dagui saw this, everyone pointed the finger at herself and asked her to look for burning materials. She said angrily: "Are you still human? They all said they were relatives. Why did you take advantage of Dahua's unconsciousness? Are you bullying me, a woman? My God, what kind of relative is this!"
Weeping and crying.
Dong Dagui covered his forehead, he felt so tired.
A group of my relatives are lazy, and the whole family is like this.
Originally, more than forty people starved to death, were bitten to death by zombies, and so on.
More than twenty people have died, and now there are only about ten people in front of me.
Still fighting among themselves.
Blame each other and blame each other.
Dong Dagui also hated his own weakness. If he had been tougher, he might not have been led by them.
However, once he gets tough, his second aunt and the others will use family ties as an excuse and say that he no longer considers family ties.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
Looking at the noisy crowd, I was afraid of attracting zombies again.
So he stood up.
Putting on his coat and hat, he slowly walked out of the room.
Others have been paying attention to Dong Dagui's movements.
Until he just walked out of the room, the room became silent for a moment.
It seems that some things have been discussed.
They each continued to be busy with their own affairs.
Sleep, daze.
After Dong Dagui closed the door, he heard the room quickly return to silence.
A bitterness welled up in my heart.
What a family of chicken thieves.
It's annoying.
