Chapter 399: The Old Man Who Oversaw the Work
When we arrived at the construction site, everyone was working shirtless. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info One by one, it was dark for more than ten days, and I was drenched in sweat.
After seeing Lin Qiao and Yuan Tianxing coming, they all glanced at them.
Li Zheng was managing several people on the construction site, and when he saw the two of them, he greeted them.
As soon as Li Zheng saw Lin Qiao, it was as if he had met a savior. immediately said to her, "Hey, Miss Lu is finally back." Tell him to leave......"
As he spoke, he pointed to an old man over there who was walking slowly around the construction site with his hands behind his back...... Zombie.
As soon as the others approached him, their whole body became stiff, and their hands and feet were weak. But you have to keep doing things, you can't stop.
Lin Qiao had already sensed the old man's breath before he came, and after he came, he saw that he was just wandering around the construction site, as if he hadn't done anything.
Looking around, he saw that the area outside the river was the area she had given him to guard.
The old man's Tang costume is still very clean, and I don't know how long he has been wearing this suit. Would he take it off and wash it himself when no one was around?
Seeing the old man Lin Qiao looking at him, he immediately stopped. Then as soon as he turned around, he walked towards Lin Qiao.
As soon as Li Zheng saw him coming, he immediately turned to the other direction of Lin Qiao and the others. He said to her with a painful face: "You don't know, as soon as we came to start work, he came to keep an eye on us." It scared a bunch of us to death that day, okay? Fortunately, Miss Qiu Lili came over to mediate. But since then, he has been watching us every day. I didn't do anything, just wandered around the construction site with my hands behind my back, and who dared to be lazy. He would stand silently and stare at them calmly. β
Lin Qiao listened to what he said, and imagined what the workers were doing and wanted to rest. As a result, after standing for a while, I suddenly felt someone behind me. When I looked back, I saw a zombie leader standing silently behind him. It's scary, okay!
She looked at the old man amusedly and asked, "You can't do this, it will hinder other people's work." β
"Roarβ" the old man yelled at her dissatisfied.
Because Lin Qiao is here, the others are not so afraid of the old man zombies.
"What did he say?" asked Yuan Tianxing curiously.
Lin Qiao said: "He is not convinced. Say it's supervising these people to do things, and if any of them don't move. He's going to drag people away and eat them, he's working as an overseer. β
The people around who heard Lin Qiao's words were all cold behind their backs.
Lin Qiao looked at them amusedly, and then said, "I lied to you." If he wants to attack someone, he doesn't need any reason. Do you think the zombies will tell you a reason? Besides, I gave them orders. They don't hurt. β
Li Zheng and the others also knew that these zombies she brought would not hurt people, but it was scary just to get close.
"That'...... And what did he just say?"
"He just said that I still owe him ten days of water," said Lyncho. β
The others looked at her blankly: "What water?"
Lin Qiao looked at the old man and said, "Take out your cup." β
Then they saw the old man digging into his clothes. At this glance, I found that under his wide clothes, there was an old man's bag.
Then I saw the old man take out the cup, and then stretched it out in front of Lin Qiao.
Huh, a different cup!
Looking at this ceramic cup with a lid, Lin Qiao glanced at the old man with some surprise.
She didn't say anything, though, and reached for his cup, and then her hand shook, and two seconds passed. And behold, a cup full of water appeared in her hand.
She handed the cup to the old man, who took it.
Everyone thought he would drink it on the spot, but the old man took the cup. Covered, turned, and gone.
The others watched with some bewilderment as he walked to a half-demolished building next to him and walked up to the second floor. Seat over a chair on the second floor and sit down.
Only then did he see him holding the water and drinking it elegantly.
"Is he using water as tea??" everyone looked at Lin Qiao with strange expressions.
Lin Qiao shrugged and said, "Maybe." β
Yuan Tianxing asked, "Do you still have to give them water to drink every day?"
Lin Qiao glanced at him and said, "Of course they don't drink ordinary water." β
With that, she walked over to the construction site and took a look at the place where construction had begun. They are now in front of a bridge, which is where the gate of the Jiannei district is located.
After observing the geographical situation, Lin Qiao did not say anything.
Next to her, Yuan Tianxing told her about the progress of the work.
Anyway, what she can take into account, Yuan Tianxing and they have already taken it into account.
The surrounding buildings have been demolished, and it is estimated that Yuan Tianxing, a native powerhouse, was able to demolish it on such a large scale.
Lin Qiao looked at the small buildings nearby, all of which were old buildings and old houses from twenty or thirty years ago.
Yuan Tianxing seemed to know what she wanted Xiaolou to do, and suddenly said, "If you want to take Xiaolou into the space, why don't you go over there." There are residential buildings here, all of which are five- to seven-storey high-rise buildings. If you go there, there are relatively low independent bungalows. β
Lin Qiao looked in the direction he was pointing, and then looked at this side. It's true that all the old buildings here are high, and the new ones are as tall as five or six stories. And the short one, it looks like a dangerous building, I'm afraid of how long it will live.
"Alright then, go over and have a look. She nodded and followed Yuan Tianxing.
Yuan Tianxing said to Lin Yu, who was standing on the side, "Lin Yu, go and drive the car over." We went by car. β
"Yes. Lin Yu responded and turned around and ran to the side of the construction site, and drove the black off-road car over.
Lin Qiao and Yuan Tianxing got into the back seat, and then Lin Yu drove the car in the direction that Yuan Tianxing pointed out.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at a complex of buildings, all of which were independent two- or three-story residential buildings. It's all the kind that they built at their own expense.
After Lin Qiao got out of the car, he saw that these buildings were all built for ten years. It should have been built a few years before the end of the world, and it is estimated that it has only been moving in for a short time.
"Well, the building here looks pretty good. After Yuan Tianxing got out of the car, he said to her.
Lin Qiao nodded. Although it is not a high-end building, it looks sturdy.
No way, the villa area here is a bit far away.
Lin Qiao looked at a building that was more pleasing to the eye, pointed at him and said, "Just this one." Go inside and have a look. β
Yuan Tianxing nodded and followed her to the door downstairs.
The gate has two tiers, one with an iron door on the outside and a solid wood door on the inside. The door wasn't broken, it was just open. There are black-brown marks on the doorway and door panels, which is the most common trace in the most populated rooms of the post-apocalyptic times.
Dried bloodstains, which had dried to this color after a few years.
