Chapter 48: Sharing
After returning the same way, Nie Yuan lit the torches, and the five sheriffs led the crowd into the cafeteria.
The aunts, who had recovered a little of their spirits, also quickly lit up seven oil lamps and placed them in various corners of the cafeteria to illuminate the dimly lit hall.
Under Gu Hongchen's explanation, Uncle Nie coolly dried two cans of war oxen, and used his ability to start cutting the conjoined tables and chairs in the cafeteria.
The four windows of the cafeteria were blocked by the face of the table, and the legs of the chairs were burned into rudimentary spikes by Uncle Nie, and nailed to the walls around the windows with the hammer that Guo Feng had brought back.
Song Shufeng used the clothes of the dead corpse to create a lot of hemp ropes under the incredible gaze of the Nie family's father and son and the four magistrates to fix these tabletops blocking the windows.
After a few hours of hustle and bustle, the team of refugees from outside the school finally cleaned up the first floor of the cafeteria, and at least had a place to cook a hot meal.
At this time, the aunts had already cleaned up the work area of the cafeteria and began to dump their backpacks to prepare for cooking.
Taking advantage of this effort, Nie Chen, Zhang Liang, and the five magistrates endured the discomfort in their stomachs and ran to the second floor of the canteen to collect ingredients.
In addition, poor Uncle Nie Yuan has just finished working as a welder here, and he is going to act as a gas stove over there, and it seems that he is still very proficient in his movements, and he can adjust the size of the fire at any time according to the instructions of the aunts.
Compared with Gu Hongchen and the others who used mineral water to wash the ground before, the aunts saved a lot of the remaining water resources in the canteen, and they brought a lot of water in their backpacks before fleeing.
Gu Hongchen admired such a vision, after all, there are not many mineral water and pure water in the supermarket now.
Soon, the aunts used the kitchen utensils in the canteen to bring their own ingredients, and they arranged some meals, and the rest of the people took the stainless steel tableware in the canteen in an orderly manner, and then sat down on the table in the canteen to eat.
Nie Yuan, who sat down to eat, asked, "You guys should also go get some food to eat!" ”
Gu Hongchen and Song Shufeng glanced at each other and nodded, "Then we're welcome!" ”
Although the aunts don't have many ingredients in their hands, with their years of cooking skills, coupled with the fine cooperation of Uncle Nie's brand stove, the taste of the food can throw off the girls in the supermarket.
Let Gu Hongchen and Song Shufeng, who had eaten enough noodles, have a good meal, and when they were about to finish eating, Nie Chen, Zhang Liang and the other five people came down from the stairs with a lot of things.
"There are still a lot of food on the second floor, but it's really hard to find bedding for sleeping or something!" After going downstairs to put down his things, Nie Chenguo said to Nie Yuan.
There aren't many places to sleep right now, except for a few nap beds in the cafeteria office.
Those metal conjoined dining tables can still be dealt with casually by the young sheriff, but these uncles and aunts with old arms and legs are estimated to sleep like this, and they are estimated to not be able to get up the next day.
"There are a lot of gymnastics mats in the stadium equipment warehouse, you can move here and pay for it!" Song Shufeng, who was on the side, put down his chopsticks after eating and said.
This was an idea, Nie Yuan and the others couldn't help but light up, and then after Nie Chen and the others finished eating, accompanied by Gu Hongchen, several people went back and forth to the canteen and the stadium four or five times before emptying the gymnastics mats in the equipment warehouse.
Although there is only a mat, it is already very content for the fleeing team at this time, and many people have also changed their views on Gu Hongchen, who was relatively strong before.
However, Gu Hongchen still didn't care about these, he first sent Song Shufeng back to the supermarket to change the dressing, and then returned to the canteen alone, and after waiting for a group of elderly people to rest, he called the father and son of the Nie family and the four sheriffs to a corner of the canteen.
"That's right, although we started to have some unpleasant quarrels, but since you have chosen to settle here, I am willing to share some information with you!"
"To put it simply, this is a different time and space, and the laws of life and death are completely different, I think you must have noticed that you can live for so long!" Gu Hongchen said more sincerely.
Although the older Nie Yuan is very vague about terms such as different time and space, the law of life and death, but Nie Chen, Sun Liang, these young magistrates are actually not a few years older than Gu Hongchen, and they still know these concepts.
"We did find that there is nothing unusual about the living, but time seems to stand still in the dead people, and there are some perishable foods that don't mean to spoil here at all!" Nie Chen nodded and said.
"Yes, I don't know if you've noticed that there have been no birds in the sky for a long time, and even flies, mosquitoes and other flying insects have disappeared without a trace!"
"Of course, these are just strange and not very important, but what matters now is that those corpses out there are constantly evolving."
"According to our anatomy, there will be ten days at most, and they will be able to complete the first stage of evolution, and then I am afraid that it will not be as easy to kill them as it is now!" Gu Hongchen shared the information he knew with Nie Yuan and the others.
"You mean to kill as many of the living dead as you can during this time!" Nie Chen and the others deserved to have graduated from the Public Security Academy, and in a blink of an eye, they understood what Gu Hongchen meant.
"That's right, if we want to defend this place, we must kill as many corpses as possible, you must know that there are six thousand people in our school, even if only half of them are possessed, it is more than three thousand corpses, and now they may be trapped in some places due to their lack of strength!"
"But if we wait for them to evolve and escape, and gather, we have no chance of winning!"
"Originally, I just had some immature countermeasures for this, but after seeing Uncle Nie's abilities, I think I can try these countermeasures!" Gu Hongchen said.
Nie Chen was slightly stunned and said, "Do you want to set fire?" ”
"That's right, that's exactly what I was going to do!" Gu Hongchen nodded and admitted.
"Are you crazy? What if there are survivors trapped inside? Yue Lin said with some annoyance.
"Crazy? Perhaps! But if I want to save this and that too, I'm afraid no one will be able to save me in the end! ”
The reality is always cruel, Gu Hongchen is not a savior, he can't save everyone, and he can't even save himself.
Now all Gu Hongchen can do is to live with the people in front of him as much as possible.
Gu Hongchen looked at the Nie family's father and son and the four magistrates and continued.
"However, before I do this, I still plan to save as much as I can, so can you lend me your power?"
Nie Chen glanced at his father and said, "Then do you have any plans?" ”
"Of course, I'm going to take down the boys' No. 1 dormitory building, as long as you're willing to help, it won't be a problem to clean up the corpses blocked there." Gu Hongchen said lightly.
