Chapter 798 If You Don't Tell Me, I Will Grow Up
After explaining the matter to Lao Bi, Li Yu returned to the RV.
He had just chatted with Zhong Chuchu and Lao Bi for so long that he was thirsty and planned to get some water.
But when he returned to the RV, he found that there was no water in the car.
The RV was empty. Li Tie and Li Gang were pulled over by Lao Bi to discuss system issues. Da Pao and Yang Tianlong went to the conference room to repair the military map.
Shaking his head, Li Yu came to the driving position by himself.
He started the car and drove to the only usable well in the oil city.
This well is on the edge of the oil city.
Because there are oil wells here, most of the underground is oil, so it is not allowed to dig wells before the end of the world.
This well was dug by themselves after the end of the world.
The water here has a strange smell, but it can be used after filtering.
Li Yu drove to the vicinity of the well and was about to get off the car to get water.
But he saw two people standing next to the well, Shen Xiaoxiao and the imperial concubine.
They seemed to be more familiar with each other.
Li Yu got out of the car, walked to the water inlet of the car body, took out the key and opened the steel plate locked on it.
Shen Xiaoxiao and Guifei saw Li Yu and greeted him.
Li Yu nodded and said, "I'm fetching water."
"Yeah. You too?"
"Yes."
After Li Yu finished speaking, he waited quietly for them to put the water into the bucket.
I saw that Shen Xiaoxiao got two huge buckets from nowhere, and they were already full of water.
"Let's go first." Shen Xiaoxiao's voice was coquettish. If you didn't look at her face, you would think she was a little loli.
"Okay." Li Yu nodded.
He saw that Guifei, who was standing next to Shen Xiaoxiao, seemed to want to go over to help fetch water, but was rejected by Shen Xiaoxiao.
"I can do it alone."
After speaking, she lifted a bucket in one hand and lifted it up easily.
The muscles of her two arms bulged instantly, making her short-sleeved shirt tight.
The streamlined muscles look very fit.
Watching Shen Xiaoxiao carrying two buckets of water that must be more than 100 kilograms away, even though Li Yu had not seen Shen Xiaoxiao's strength for the first time, he was a little surprised at this time.
What a muscular woman.
Looking at the imperial concubine next to Shen Xiaoxiao, she widened her eyes and followed Shen Xiaoxiao in a daze.
Li Yu laughed and shook his head, then inserted the water pipe into the water inlet of the car body, turned on the faucet, and waited quietly.
Soon, he added water to the car.
Turn on the water purifier in the car, then fill a pot of water and boil it.
Then he drove the car back to its original position.
While he was adding water, Li Tie and Li Gang were discussing the exchange ratio with Lao Bi in the meeting room next to the Oil City, and formulating reasonable rules based on the characteristics of the Oil City.
In the meeting room, Cannon, Ant and others were repairing the military map.
In the entire Oil City, the lights of the stars illuminated the Oil City.
Since oil can be produced here and there are diesel generators, they don't have to worry about electricity and lighting.
On the other hand, since Lao Bi had to stay up late to discuss with Li Tie and Li Gang, the duty task tonight was handed over to Lao Luo and Xiao Jun.
Li Yu was in the RV, waiting for the boiled water to cool down for a while.
He added an effervescent tablet and drank it in one gulp.
As the sky gradually darkened, he hadn't taken a shower for several days.
He turned his head and looked at the small bathroom in the RV, a little hesitant.
But the itching on his back made him feel uncomfortable. The weather was hot, and it was easy to get lice if he didn't take a shower for too long.
In fact, they rarely used the bathroom in this RV.
Generally, when driving out in an RV, they had to find a temporary station. The temporary station was not safe, so Li Yu would not take off the explosion-proof suit.
And when on the road, adding water was also a hassle.
In rivers and lakes, there are often some zombies lurking in the water, so they have to be very careful when adding water, and they do whatever they can to save water outside.
But now the oil fortress is in their hands, and there are walls and people on duty.
The most important thing is that there are wells here, and water resources are not in short supply. Even if it smells a bit, it is still water.
Li Yu finally decided to take a shower.
He quickly took off the explosion-proof suit and then the bulletproof vest.
He kicked off his shoes and rushed into the small bathroom.
He turned on the shower and scrubbed his scalp and body vigorously.
He planned to finish the shower within five minutes.
As he was washing, he suddenly felt the water level on his feet getting higher and higher.
So he lowered his head and saw that the drain was blocked by dirt and hair on his body, and smiled bitterly.
He rubbed that side with his feet to rub off the dirt blocking the drain, and the water flow was unobstructed.
Five minutes later, Li Yu wiped his body dry and felt refreshed.
He put on his clothes and bulletproof vest, collapsed on the sofa, and watched the video on the small TV in the RV, which was a bit comfortable.
After half an hour, Li Yu pushed the small TV up and covered it with a baffle.
After all, the roads they drove in this armored RV were mostly uneven, and all the electrical appliances in the car were designed to prevent collisions.
Back in the small space behind the car, Li Yu leaned on the bed and slowly fell asleep.
At the same time.
Thousands of miles away at the camphor tree base.
Second uncle did not fall asleep.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. He walked on the wall and saw that the greenhouse in the third outer city had been built.
Even the residential building had already built two floors above the ground.
Li Yu and his team had been away for more than half a month, and the construction work in the camphor tree base had not stopped.
During this period, when the uncle was patrolling around the camphor tree base for routine inspections and troubleshooting, he saw the wooden fences built by many cooperative personnel and discussed the matter with the second uncle.
So in the name of the camphor tree base, a day was taken out to let many cooperative personnel reinforce the original wooden railings, and the labor could still be exchanged for food on that day.
Many cooperative personnel and non-staff personnel who learned of the news were excited.
This was a great thing for them.
Although there were fewer zombies in this mountain forest, they had more people after all.
Where there were many people, the popularity was strong, and the zombies had a keen sense of smell at night, so zombies from other places often came over.
There is no end to the zombies. Every time it rains, zombies from far away will come. When the rain stops, these zombies will not go far. They will find some dark and humid places nearby and stay until night.
At first, they would clean up the zombies regularly, but later they found that they could not kill them all, so they simply stopped killing them.
Anyway, as long as it rains, it will return to its original state.
After a day of reinforcement, the two kilometers around the big camphor tree base are all more stable wooden fences in low and easy-to-enter places.
The second uncle walked around the wall and felt a little sweaty. Then he came to the duty room of the third outer city and said to Song Min who was on duty inside: "I'll go back first and replace you tomorrow."
Song Min nodded and said: "Okay, you have been here all day, go back and rest."
The second uncle didn't say anything, but glanced at Li Zhengping who was also inside.
Nodded, then returned to the inner city.
Walking on the road in the inner city, watching the street lights illuminate the road surface, and some crops such as edamame are planted on the road surface.
Looking at the dim yellow lights and the green crops, the worries in my heart are relieved a lot.
The huge base, including the inner and outer cities, non-staff personnel and cooperative personnel, adds up to several thousand people.
He has to manage a large number of cooperative and non-staff personnel, and at the same time, he has to look after the construction and planting and breeding in the base. In addition, there are a series of things to deal with.
Every day at dawn, he went to the duty room at the main gate to handle various affairs there.
During the days when Li Yu and the third uncle were away, he spent several times more time in the duty room than in the inner city.
Sometimes, he even slept in the duty room.
This plate is big, and with many people, it is much more difficult to manage.
It is much more tiring than when he started his business.
The second uncle pounded his old waist and came to the villa area.
The villa area was built by Li Yu specifically for his family, and it is separated from other residential buildings in the inner city by a wall.
When he just walked to the villa area, he saw a light on in a room on the first floor.
Through the bright light, he stood in the dark and saw his fourth brother and his youngest daughter Li Suxin sitting on the sofa by the window.
Suxin is almost 7 years old this year. She is holding a big fairy tale book and telling stories to her fourth brother Li Hongcheng.
The fourth brother under the light, with a simple face, looks even more kind and friendly under the soft light.
The fourth brother looked at Suxin with a doting and gentle look.
Watching quietly, listening to Li Suxin telling him fairy tales.
Seeing this loving scene, the second uncle was very relieved.
The fourth brother's wife had a difficult delivery and passed away after giving birth to Suxin. The fourth brother didn't talk much. After his wife died, he became even more taciturn.
He rarely accompanied his two daughters Peizhen and Suxin, so that the two children became taciturn.
Before the end of the world, the two children were handed over to Li Yu's grandparents. At a young age, they seemed to bear great pressure.
A bad childhood takes a lifetime to heal.
Whenever Li Yu comes back, the two sisters are the happiest, because Li Yu will take them to the amusement park and buy what they want.
As uncles and aunts, they often take care of the two sisters.
However, fatherly love is irreplaceable.
Unexpectedly, after the outbreak of the apocalypse.
There are zombies outside, and everyone stays in this base. The company of relatives heals the fourth brother and the two sisters.
In addition, Li Yu often reminds the fourth uncle to spend more time with the two children.
Unexpectedly, the fourth brother, who has always been silent and taciturn, has actually learned how to get along with his daughter.
"It's great." The second uncle saw the father and daughter, Su Xin leaning on the fourth brother's arms, sometimes jumping up from his arms, and then jumping on the sofa. The fourth brother next to him is protecting her with both hands. It's really beautiful.
It's the first time that the second uncle has seen the fourth brother like this.
Since the second uncle stayed in the dark outside, and the fourth uncle and his daughter stayed in the bright room, the second uncle could see the fourth uncle, but the fourth uncle and his daughter could not see the people outside.
"Dad, Dad, I will tell you a fairy tale."
Li Suxin's tender voice rang out, passing through the window and blowing outside.
"Okay, you tell it, and Dad listens."
The fourth brother Li Hongcheng was very patient, smiling and speaking in a gentle voice.
"I'll tell you the story of the three little pigs.
Once upon a time, there were three little pigs. The eldest was called Bajie, the second was called Yingtai, and the third was called Liye."
"Xinxin~"
"What's wrong?" Li Suxin raised her big eyes. Her eyelashes were long and curly under the light. Her pink and tender baby fat face looked like a porcelain doll under the reflection of the light.
The fourth brother hesitated for a moment, but did not correct his daughter's story or discourage her enthusiasm. He said, "You told it very well. Who told you this story?"
"Sister Yuanyuan, she taught me. Any questions?"
The fourth uncle was very upset, but he still had a smile on his face and said expectantly, "Okay, I haven't heard this story yet. Xinxin, you tell it. I want to hear it."
The second uncle stood outside for a long time, with a smile on his face that he could hardly detect.
Until later, he heard that Suxin was sleepy and fell asleep on the fourth brother's shoulder.
The pink little mouth was full of crystal saliva.
Confused, she murmured in a low voice: "Dad, I want to tell you a story tomorrow.
I'm afraid...if I don't tell you, I will...grow up."
Listening to her daughter's mature but childish words.
The fourth brother, who was holding his daughter, had red eyes instantly.
Even the second uncle standing outside the window burst into tears at this time.
Children grow up very fast. One year for adults may be as fast as one month for children.
Some things, when you grow up, you will no longer have them.
Some things, if you don't do them, you will grow up and you will never do them again.
When you grow up, you can never go back, and some feelings can never be felt again.
