34. Dr. Du's Cabbage Theory

Haichen and Lu Rulan hurried to the construction site and met Duan Whale and Lin Youqing in front of the unfinished office building.

Duan Whale got straight to the point: "Turn off the handstand." ”

"Tedai?" Haichen and Lu Rulan looked at each other, "Why?" ”

"Just do it."

Haichen looked at Lu Rulan, Lu Rulan nodded, and the two of them took out the handset and closed it.

Lin Youqing said again: "Please lift the soles of your shoes again and take a look." ”

Although it was even more inexplicable, the two of them still obediently did it.

Lin Youqing checked the soles of their shoes, looked at the clothes again, and confirmed that there was no problem, and then nodded at Duan Whale.

"That's it."

Duan Whale stretched his face, beckoned, and led a few people towards the south of the construction site.

About two hundred meters from the core construction area, there is a small clearing paved with blue-gray gravel. In the center of the open space stands a long blue building that looks like a workshop at first glance, but also resembles a shipping container.

"Look, gas station."

Duan Whale, who had deliberately sold Guan Zi from just now, finally revealed the puzzle, and there was quite a smug look between his words.

Or Lin Youqing explained a few more words: "Just now we cleaned up the nearby area and found this skid-mounted gas station. It is speculated that it was inconvenient to refuel construction vehicles on the island, so it was specially built. ”

"So, there's oil here?!"

Lu Rulan was also immediately interested, and walked back and forth around the gas station twice: "Is it gasoline or diesel?" How much is there? ”

Lin Youqing replied: "We looked at it just now, this should be a double-warehouse double-product gas station, with gasoline on the front and diesel on the back." A total of 30 cubic meters of space, half of gasoline and half of diesel. The oil level indication is basically full. ”

As soon as he said this, Haichen immediately began to calculate-

"A cubic meter is a thousand liters. Let's get another 20% discount, and now there are almost 12,000 liters of gasoline and 12,000 liters of diesel in this gas station. Tsk, it's not too much, it's not too little! ”

"The average family car, with a fuel tank capacity of about 60 liters, can travel about five or six hundred kilometers on urban roads. 12,000 litres of gasoline is enough to drive about 120,000 kilometers, that is, three times around the equator. ”

"120,000, wow!"

Lin You's settlement of this account obviously made Lu Rulan very excited.

But Duan Whale scoffed at his excitement: "Do you think 120,000 is a lot?" A car is almost 120,000 after 4 years of driving. We now have three cars, and if we drive them at the same time, we won't be able to play for more than a year. And that's not even counting the other consumption. ”

Haichen also agrees with Duan Whale's opinion: "And electronic devices like cars, lights, and computers, no matter how long or short, will always have an end-of-life life. If the world doesn't get back on track, one day we'll run out of resources and go back to the age of cold weapons. ”

His words also cut into the hidden worries of other people's hearts.

After being silent for a while, Lin Youqing said softly: "Think about it carefully, what has become of this world, how many people still survive, and is there a vaccine for the zombie virus...... We still don't know these things. ”

"Don't worry, I've thought about this too."

Duan Whale comforted him: "Let's settle down the important things first, and then I'll try to assemble the radio station with the hand station and other parts." Nowadays, the Internet and telephone communication are interrupted, and survivors everywhere will definitely choose radio communication, and with radio, they can keep abreast of the situation outside. ”

It's an idea, but it needs some preparation. And right now, they have a lot more important things to do.

With the courage of the gas station, some jobs that look dirty, smelly and tiring suddenly become a lot easier.

There was a construction truck parked at the construction site that had not been driven away. Haichen, who claimed to have an A photo, volunteered to be in charge of driving, and the other three people jumped into the car body, drove to the barbed wire, and began to lift the zombies up one by one.

All concrete roads in the botanical garden are designed as two-way two-lane roads. This provides great convenience for cleaning up the battlefield. About an hour and a half later, there was a large pile of corpses in the car and began to drive towards the main entrance.

According to Lu Rulan's construction, all the bodies were placed in the large pool on the square outside the gate.

The four of them finished a long time and stopped to catch their breath.

Haichen drank the water handed over by Lu Rulan, and looked into the distance with his eyes, but he was looking at the cross-sea bridge in the distance.

“…… Brothers, I have a question. This bridge is the only way we can access it by land, how long do you think it lasts? ”

"I don't know." Duan Whale shook his head, "However, the bridges in use will be equipped with maintenance teams." If the rust is not removed in time, there will indeed be many hidden dangers. ”

"Fifty years should be fine."

Lu Rulan, who was squatting and resting, interjected: "I used to watch a documentary about the end of the world, saying that if no one maintains the Golden Gate Bridge, it will collapse naturally after 70 years." Anyway, I don't think we need to worry about that. ”

Lin Youqing also agrees with him: "Compared to the collapse of the bridge...... I'm more worried about what happens if a zombie comes over the bridge. One or two are enough, and if there are too many of them, the iron gate of the botanical garden may be difficult to handle. ”

"So we should build a few more fortifications."

Duan Whale stretched out his hand and gestured twice in the direction of the bridge: "The bridge is a natural pass, we should build a few more fortifications at the head and end of the bridge, anyway, there are many materials in the construction site of the botanical garden, as long as we ensure that vehicles can enter and exit in one direction." ”

"Sounds like a lot of fun, count me in if you want to build a wall."

Haichen was busy raising his hand, when suddenly the hand table in their pockets rang at the same time.

It was Du Yunfei who was talking, bringing bad news that everyone didn't want to hear.

Su He had a fever.

――――――

Suhe's heat began to climb in the third hour after lunch, when he was sleeping in the car.

Du Yunfei ran away for a while to prepare the ingredients for dinner, and when he returned to the car, he noticed at first glance that Su He's face was a little abnormally red, and the result of the temperature test was 40 °C.

The crowd who received the news was shocked and hurried back to the dock.

I saw that Su He had been woken up by Du Yunfei, and he was still sitting in the passenger seat with the seat back straightened. If you look closely, you can see that you are still wearing a seat belt.

"This is ......" Lu Rulan was anxious when she saw it: "Doctor Du, my brother is sick, why are you still tying him up?!" ”

"None of his business." It was Su He himself who spoke, "...... I asked him to do it, and I didn't want anything unpleasant to happen. ”

It's only been a few hours, and Su He's voice is a little hoarse. Lu Rulan became more and more frightened, but fortunately, Haichen was by his side, whispering some words of comfort to him.

Duan Whale also asked nervously, "How is the situation now?" ”

"It looks like a normal infection at the moment." Du Yunfei was cautious: "But the conditions are limited, and there is no way to extract his blood for culture, so the specific infection cannot be determined." I can only try to mix the drugs now, and hopefully it will work. ”

"What happens if it doesn't work?"

It was Su He who rushed to answer this question: "First of all, scurvy occurs, and then various complications will occur with the necrosis of blood on the surface and internal organs of the body. And then ...... And then I'm going to be a big zombie. ”

"Brother!" Lu Rulan roared in a low voice with a crying voice, "Don't be a crow's mouth!" ”

Du Yunfei casually closed the car door, and then replied to Duan Whale: "It doesn't seem to be strict at the moment, but I don't rule out the possibility of deterioration." The key is to see tonight. ”

Lin Youqing asked, "Is there anything we need to do?" ”

"Not for the time being," Du Yunfei shook his head: "Don't let Xiaoxing get close to this side, you should also try to move around this side as little as possible, and dinner will still be settled on the boat." I will be responsible for Su He's affairs. ”

When he said this, he heard Su He's weak voice coming from the car door again: "Then what if I really can't do it?" Why don't they see me for the last time? ”

"I'll talk about this kind of thing when the time comes."

After explaining the situation, Du Yunfei sent everyone away and began to prepare for the infusion of Suhe.

He took out the syringe, saline, and a bunch of medications from the box and began to dispense the potions for the infusion.

Su He maintained the posture of wearing a seat belt, lowered the window, and looked out weakly: What kind of medicine is it this time? ”

Du Yunfei seemed to be extremely tired of him: "You can't understand what you said." ”

“…… Tsk, the male nurse is dragging. ”

After complaining like this, Su He was barely quiet for a moment.

After preparing the potion, Du Yunfei found a branch and hung the infusion bottle on the luggage rack on the roof of the car. Then open the car door and let Su He reach out.

Sterilization, pricking, fixing, all in one go, ruthless and stable just a little painful.

Pushing the flow regulator into the right position, Du Yunfei confirmed the speed at which the liquid fell, and then reached over and touched Su He's forehead.

Su He didn't seem to be surprised, and only asked softly, "Will I really die?" ”

Du Yunfei's hand paused: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"Don't lie to me." Su He smiled bitterly, "You doctors, you all like to say that." ”

Du Yunfei withdrew his hand and dragged the blanket to cover him: "Then you will die." ”

Su He's eyes widened for a moment: "You lie!" ”

Du Yunfei's face did not change: "It is difficult for you to serve." ”

"Then don't wait." Su He took the blanket and covered himself: "I feel good now, you don't care about me." To be honest, I always look at your poker face, and I feel very annoyed. ”

was disliked for no reason, and Du Yunfei was not serious. He didn't walk away, still standing outside the car, and seemed to look at Su He coldly.

Although Su He was burned in a daze, he was not willing to lose the fight. He also stared back with sideways eyes.

The two of them faced each other for a long time. In the end, Du Yunfei, who was still sober-minded, spoke.

He asked Su He: "Does it make sense for you to always pretend to be indifferent like this?" ”

Su He also asked him rhetorically: "Then does it make sense for you to always pretend to be like this?" ”

"Don't raise a bar with me."

Du Yunfei took half a step forward, supported the door frame with one hand, and lowered his head to look at Su He.

"I have seen many times and many kinds of people facing death...... You're actually scared, too, because no one knows what's going to happen next. ”

"What about being afraid? Do you have to show it if you are afraid? ”

The corners of Su He's mouth still had that somewhat under-beaten smile: "Hiding and being afraid that you will be dragged out and shot, then I'm really scared......"

As he spoke, he deliberately made a posture of holding his head with both hands, and as soon as his hand was raised, the blood came back down the infusion tube.

Du Yunfei pulled his hand down with a dark face.

"Suppressing fear is like slapping a nail with your hand, and the harder you go, the more you hurt. The release of love has its rationality, and it is not desperately suppressed to be called a man. ”

Su He watched his blood flow back to the back of his hand little by little, was silent for a moment, and suddenly changed his mind.

"Then I'm scared now, Dr. Du, could you please comfort me?"

"I've been comforting you." Du Yunfei said.

"I'm so sick, what's the use of verbal comfort?" Speaking of this, Su He actually took the initiative to purse his lips: "It's better to ...... Come and kiss it? ”

"Nope." Du Yunfei refused very simply, "Your mouth may also be poisonous now, I don't need to take this risk." ”

“…… You're a really interesting person. Su He laughed dryly, then raised his head and sighed long: "To be honest, I'm quite happy to meet you." It wasn't pleasant at first, but now I don't hate you. ”

"But my impression of you is still very bad."

While adjusting the infusion bottle, Du Yunfei closed the door of Su He's side, only opening the window for ventilation: "Don't think nonsense, if you have a fever, you still want to think about everything, and your brain will burn out." ”

"It's so ugly, it looks like I'm really saved."

As he spoke, Su He rested his hand on the door frame of the car and adjusted a more comfortable position for himself.

"But in case I really can't...... Seriously, please take care of my brother and don't let that guy surnamed Hai give him an arch. ”

"Look at your own cabbage."

After saying this, Du Yunfei finished packing up the medicine box and other items, and walked away without looking back.
