66.Chapter 66
Yan Fei's team leader Guo Yong rushed back from a military jeep from a distance at this time, and when he saw that everyone was staying at their respective posts, he hurriedly climbed the wall and said to everyone in a loud voice: "I just received a notice that the earth powerhouses who built the wall have completely completed the second phase of the height of the outer wall, and the superiors will prepare to carry out the third phase of the work of raising and thickening the earth wall after they take a few days off. β
Today's walls are only six meters high, the earthen walls are about one meter thick, the outer metal walls are only 10 centimeters thick, and at least half of the metal walls have not been built to a height of six meters.
"Captain, do you need to thicken the metal fence?" A metal-based powerhouse who was also resting to replenish the crystal nucleus asked.
"Yes, but not now, the metal walls in the future will have to be repaired to a thickness of at least about one meter, but the metal materials inside the base are still not enough, and we need to wait for the follow-up materials to be shipped one after another." The captain sighed and looked in the direction of the inner city, "Not only should the outer wall continue to expand, but the inner wall also needs to be thickened and reinforced. β
A wall is a guarantee, although while blocking the zombies, it is also equivalent to imprisoning humans in disguise within a tall wall, but only when the thick wall protects them, the people inside can feel at ease.
A soldier smiled: "If we continue to build this wall, it will soon become a European castle." β
Another soldier smiled and pointed to the surveillance tower that could be faintly seen not far away: "Isn't it almost the same now?" Yesterday they had just finished the stone bridge leading to the watchtowers, and they heard that they would have to build more in the future. β
In order to prevent the watchtowers that played a role in monitoring and vigilance outside from being blocked by zombies and completely isolated outside, the base has actually managed to build a masonry viaduct passage between each watchtower in the past few days. Thin passages lead from the fence to the guard tower, each of which allows only one person to walk, looking like a watchtower extending from an ancient castle.
The passage was a semi-arc-shaped bridge building from below, and was built by the collaboration of the Earth-based Abilities and the architects of the base, as well as the help of the Metal-based Abilities.
In the later stage, more such watchtowers need to be built, and the base even has the idea of building some such "passages" between the inner and outer walls, in order to facilitate the transmission of information and facilitate the mobilization of personnel to go out to support in some special periods. Luo Xun secretly suspected that this was because the base was worried that in case one day the outer wall was lost, it could use these "bridges" to find a way to recover the lost ground of the outer wall.
The memories from his previous life made Luo Xun more aware that in the near future, a real "castle" will be built on the base, which is a militarized building centered on the location of the current military camp and surrounded by tall walls. It's a pity that Luo Xun didn't have a chance to go in and see what it was like in his last life, but in this life...... It is estimated that he and Yan Fei may also participate in this work...... Well, maybe they may not be able to participate in it then, but they definitely need Yan Fei to help build the city.
Not long after conveying the order of the superiors, when Yan Fei and the others used the absorbed crystal nucleus energy again, this morning's work came to an end.
As usual, the two followed the car back to the barracks, went to the canteen to eat, and drove their own car back to the community.
After the Spring Festival, there are significantly fewer people who are still at home and idle, and the vast majority of people will look for work and find ways to exchange for some food rations to go home. The faint-hearted will find a way to find a job in the base, and the more courageous will pull up a team and go around collecting supplies.
In order to go out to find supplies and build a real team, many people have begun to gather people everywhere. The number of stalls on the streets has decreased, but at the same time, there have been more tables and tables with banners to recruit people to expand the ranks.
Because Luo Xun and the others drove by, some people who were standing in the middle of the road handing out leaflets saw that there were two young men inside, so they shoved the leaflets into their windows. Luo Xun asked Yan Fei curiously while driving: "What is written?" Although he himself is too lazy to go to the base, he would rather farm at home and make a living by the wall, but he can't resist the raging fire of gossip in his heart - anyway, there is no entertainment in the base now, and it is also a good pastime to see how the various teams win people over, and if there are any future celebrities who are still small people at this time.
Seeing this, Yan Fei opened a leaflet, and after seeing the things on it, the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"What's wrong?" Luo Xun is driving carefully - there are often passers-by on the streets inside the base, the car can't drive fast at all, and there are always people who suddenly rush out and run over, and it's normal for someone to accidentally bump into someone or something while driving.
"Handwritten, not ordinary blank paper." Yan Fei carefully discerned it, and found that under the oily signature pen seemed to be some kind of text that had been printed out before the end of the world.
"Oh, there's a shortage of paper right now." Luo Xun thinks this is normal, and he can still find these papers to use, wait for another year to see? Everyone is going to use the legendary straw paper again.
ββ¦β¦ There are also typos. Yan Fei stared at a large place that had been painted black with an oil-based pen.
ββ¦β¦ It's normal, everyone used to use mobile phones and computers to type, and it's normal to make mistakes. Luo Xun nodded vigorously, silently remembering in his heart - it seems that he has not written for a long time since he entered the last days in his last life...... Except on rare occasions, he never used a pen again. Although I sometimes need to write and draw after returning from this rebirth, some words that I can't remember are still checked with my mobile phone before I remember how to write...... In that case, it's good that you can write, right?
Yan Fei sighed lightly: "I think they must be looking for an old Chinese medicine doctor to write a leaflet, so many words are so wild that I can't tell what it is." "His literary level is relatively high, when he was a child, he copied a lot of calligraphy under the supervision of his grandfather, and the orthodox wild grass and Xingshu can be recognized, but unfortunately now he can't distinguish the wild grass version of these simplified characters, and can only guess what the preface and the back words are saying by looking at the words that can barely be recognized.
ββ¦β¦ What about the rest? Luo Xun couldn't help but laugh.
Yan Fei picked a few that he could read clearly, and Luo Xun listened to it and said: "It's all quite unreliable, it's not so much recruiting people as it is going out to find things together." β
"How reliable can it be?" Yan Fei smiled faintly and folded these papers and put them in the special place in the car for miscellaneous items - these are all papers, maybe they will be of any use in the future, and now they will not waste anything useful. "All the leaflets say that recruiting people with abilities and giving priority to people with abilities is preferred, but they don't have any capital that can attract people with abilities, they are all empty words, and they don't even have the most basic capital to incite people's hearts."
"Yes, I think they should go directly to the city gate to find the companions of those who want to go out, and after working together once, maybe they can meet some suitable people to pull in." The two of them gossiped painlessly, and after the car drove to the gate of the Hongjing community, many people rushed to the side of the car and stuffed leaflets inside.
Suddenly, a person exclaimed: "Yan, Yan ......" was a woman's voice.
Luo Xun was stunned for a moment, looked at the window on Yan Fei's side, and saw an ordinary-looking woman in her early twenties staring at Yan Fei with a frightened expression. This woman is slightly familiar, but ...... Who's here? And now Yan Feike is still wearing a mask, and he can recognize him when he wears a mask...... Acquaintance?
Xiao glanced at Yan Fei unhappily, and Luo Xun increased the throttle and rushed into the gate of the community.
Yan Fei only glanced at the woman lightly, then didn't look at her again, and folded and stuffed the pile of leaflets he received into the place where the miscellaneous items were placed.
The two parked the car and walked out of the car with backpacks and other things, Luo Xun looked in the direction of the gate intersection, and saw the woman sneaking over, looking at the two, seeing Luo Xun was startled at her, turned around and ran towards the gate.
"Who is she?" So it seems that they are not acquaintances? The little unhappiness in Luo Xun's heart has decreased a lot.
"I guess it was one of the first waves of people I met after the end of the world." Yan Fei's expression remained unchanged, and seeing that Luo Xun was still a little confused, he explained with a smile, "It's the group that broke my ribs, and this woman seems to be among them." He remembered the hands-on men more deeply, and the more conspicuous ones were the mature woman and another female college student with a more innocent appearance - who let those two women stick to him every day in those days? If this girl remembers correctly, she should have a very good relationship with the female college student. It's just that it's too inconspicuous, he doesn't even remember the names of those two women with outstanding appearances, let alone this woman now?
"Oh! It's them! Luo Xun also suddenly realized that although he had met that group of people, his attention at that time was on the man who seemed to be the boss, and the others only had a slight impression after a quick look. Thinking of this, a trace of murder flashed in his eyes when he looked in the direction of the entrance of the community again, "Go back and check where they live?" β
Yan Fei smiled faintly: "Don't be in a hurry for the time being." He won't forget about it, his heart is small. In fact, Luo Xun may not have noticed it before, but when they went out to work in the community in the morning, they had actually seen the group from afar more than once a few times, but the distance was relatively far away, and he didn't talk about it out loud, so Luo Xun didn't know, but he knew what building and which building they lived in.
But recently, I haven't seen the mature woman and the innocent-looking female college student among those people, I don't know if it's staying at home to take care of the family? Or have already parted ways with them.
Luo Xun nodded slightly, and took his backpack and other things into his own corridor. These people can't stay, not to mention that Yan Fei, who was injured in the past, has recovered from his injuries, Luo Xun doesn't believe that those people will give up looking for trouble and committing crimes after learning that Yan Fei is still alive. If this kind of thing is not solved as soon as possible, if there is any unexpected situation, they will not be able to protect it, and they will be behind it, and he will never keep these people behind his back when he knows that there is such a hidden danger.
There is no need to talk about the thoughts in my heart for the time being, as long as I find an opportunity to get rid of those people, there will naturally be no problem, but my crossbow is really a bit conspicuous like Zhang Su's wind ability, ordinary people don't know it, but the soldiers who have worked with me are very aware of this matter.
A big hand suddenly fell on his head, and Luo Xun raised his head and looked at Yan Fei with a smile in his eyes: "Don't worry, I'll solve it." "There's nothing left behind, and it's not too late.
Forget about others, Xu Bin, the leader, and a few men who did it together are still living together, and they just haven't found a chance to do it for the time being.

After the Spring Festival, the weather was warm and warm, and the sun was shining warmly on the earth at about two o'clock in the afternoon, which gave rise to a faint hypnotic feeling in the hearts of the soldiers who were on the defensive, and the soldiers who were building the wall in the afternoon shift were also a little sleepy.
The three soldiers who were hung in mid-air to build the wall complained in a low voice while "gluing" metal to the wall: "In such a good weather, the wall has to be hung in the air, and the rope is like in a hammock, which makes people sleepy." β
"Come on, haven't you heard the captain say that these two earth-based abilities are going to expand the wall again? I heard that next time, I will have to build the wall to 10 meters! β
"Isn't six meters enough? Zombies can't jump up again......"
"The order of the superiors, we can only carry it out, anyway, the higher the safer."
A few people chatted in a low voice, pulling the rope from time to time to adjust their position and direction, and suddenly a few gunshots rang out, and the three strangers turned their heads slightly, and saw a few zombies running from a distance, and the distance was still far away. This situation has been encountered many times in the past few days, and at first they would let the people above pull them up in advance, but after a long time, the zombies never broke through the protection of the armored car, so they ignored it and still built their own walls.
"Quick! Pull it up! It didn't take long to hear the people on the wall suddenly shouting, and the three strangers and one of the spirits hurriedly looked back, and saw that several zombies had climbed onto the armored car! Two of them jumped at the height of the armored car!!
"Ahββ!!h
"Pull it up!!"
"Pounding!"
"Another zombie has rushed in!!"
"Pull hard! Hurry up! β
The soldier who was responsible for pulling and putting the rope behind the wall hurriedly pulled the rope hard, and suddenly! Two of them fell to the ground! And the rope they pulled "swished" and was brought in by inertia and thrown directly off the ground, and the person on the other end of the rope ...... But nowhere to be seen!!
The zombie raid killed five soldiers on the armored car, and a metal ability hanging on the rope was directly pulled by the zombie and grabbed by the rope, two arms and a thigh were directly torn down, and the person also fell to death on the spot Lucky did not become a zombie after death, but the other person was bitten twice on the thigh and soon became a zombie!
The three metal-based abilities of the second team died two of them at once......
ββββββββββ
"Ahhh I can't wait to see the water and electricity on the floor heating! Li Tie and the others stood obediently at the door of their house, looking at Yan Fei who was standing in the living room of the room.
The metal materials stacked in one corner of the room had already flown up at this time, and the pieces of metal materials were twisted, deformed, and fused under Yan Fei's control, and they were laid out on the floor in circles, from room to room, and gradually, the three bedrooms, a living room, and the passage leading to the door were all covered with metal pipes!
According to Luo Xun's design drawings, after connecting the valves and other things into the water and heating hot water devices, Yan Fei clapped his hands and turned around and walked out of the door: "Let's try water and electricity." β
"Good!" The crowd cheered, cautiously stepped through the gap between the pipes, took the power supply and water pipes, and began to add water to heat.
This dragon device is a modification of the installation of Luo Xuntong guΓ² electric water heater, the heating pipe is located at the water inlet, and the pipe in the room only allows heated water to flow guΓ², so if you want to warm up the whole room, it will take a certain amount of time. However, the water can be circulated inside, and there is a temperature control device, and once the water at the outlet reaches a certain temperature, the heating will be suspended...... Although there will be a variety of problems that need to be solved in use, it should be ready for use in general.
Luo Xun smiled with satisfaction and watched Li Tie and the others busy working, and it didn't take long for the pipe next to the electric heating pipe to become warm, in exchange for a burst of cheers from several people. He found out that he was actually quite talented, and look, he designed this kind of thing!
Yan Fei looked at the unconcealed pride on Luo Xun's face with a smile, and suddenly there was an urge to carry it back, throw it on the bed, and then happily snap and exercise. I just thought about whether I should just put my fantasy into action? I saw that Wang Duo ran to the two of them with a flattering smile on his face and was extremely blind: "Brother Yan, Brother Yan, we are also tinkering with the materials, and we will trouble you in two days." β
Yan Fei glanced at him angrily: "Which room are you thinking about?" And the heating pipes - we can't make that right now. "Li Tie, the heating pipe used in their room was exchanged by a few of them outside, although Luo Xun has it at home - Luo Xun is afraid that his water heater heating pipe will not have to be replaced if it breaks? So I bought two in advance before the end of the world, and when I went to the building materials city after the end of the world, I got a few and came back. Although there is, how can you support them in everything?
Wang Duo hurriedly patted his chest: "Don't worry!" I'm sure I'll get it! β
Zhang Su, who was watching the excitement on the side, leaned on the door frame and laughed coldly when he heard this: "It's all up to you, I should drink the northwest wind." β
Wang Duo's white face flushed instantly, and he turned around and rubbed to Zhang Su's side to pull the corner of his clothes-coquettish...... Who made him not realize that his points were not enough until he was about to go out to buy metal materials, or did Zhang Su sneer and take out his small treasury after learning about it and blinded Wang Duo's eyes?
Luo Xun raised his hand to cover the damaged titanium eyes, he really couldn't look at this scene directly, who of these two people was affected? Why don't you look more masculine?
After running for a while, the water circulation system in room 1601 said that it was very normal, and after Li Tie and the others were too excited, they regretted to find that they seemed to have to speed up at least one bedroom tonight, otherwise there would be no place to sleep! It's a sad story.
Laughing at the neighbors who had to work overtime to lay the floor, Luo Xun and the others went back to their homes to prepare for rest after watching the meeting and making a fuss. Wang Duo was forcibly left behind by Li Tie and a few others to help lay the floor, and in exchange for helping him with the floor in the future.
Zhang Su didn't say anything to stop him, but just turned around and went back to his room and began to wonder if he had chosen the wrong person? Is it really okay for a low IQ to do this to your boyfriend? Obviously, he had already negotiated with Yan Fei before, saying that in the future, the floor of his house would also be paved with metal, so he didn't need to ask Li Tie and them to help pave the floor, okay? And the rest of the floors are only enough to make a bedroom for your own home......
Is it too late to kick him out now? What's more, this product is also surnamed Zhang......
Thinking of these questions, Zhang Su began to self-examine, this should be the result of letting Wang Duo take advantage of the emptiness after he killed his ex-boyfriend, or simply lock the door and let him sleep in the corridor tonight......
As soon as Luo Xun locked the door of his room, someone resisted.
"What are you doing?" Luo Xun was startled, and when he saw him walking up the stairs, he didn't dare to struggle for fear of falling down, so he had to let him carry it like this.
Yan Fei raised his hand and slapped someone's buttocks with a very good touch, would he say it now that he had been thinking about carrying him to the bed just now? There are some things that can be done directly, and there is no need to explain them at all.
Seeing this, the little guy thought that the two masters were playing some fun game, flicked his little tail and followed all the way to the second floor, and then "touched" it...... It was shut out.
Raised his paws and scratched the door a few times, pricked up his ears to listen, and faintly heard a few calls from inside, and then quickly stretched his hind legs and shouted at the door a few times. Unfortunately, no one of the owners came to open the door for it, so he had to walk up the stairs with his tail hanging and flicking, and went downstairs back to his soft nest - no more playing with it, huh!
ββββ this is the dividing line where the vertical X is excessiveββββ
Luo Xun sat in the passenger seat and raised his hand to cover his mouth listlessly, yawning big. The five people in the trunk, except for Zhang Su, also yawned one after another. No way, they tinkered until one o'clock in the middle of the night last night to get a bedroom, and they will continue to get a few rooms left when they come back tonight! Thankfully, they finally mastered a new skill last night β flooring! In the future, they can really use this as a skill to find a job!
However, the people who will renovate their houses in the last days...... How many can there be?
