Chapter 262: Placement
"Yes, master."
Qi Yun lowered his head and shouted.
"You kid, I didn't admit that you were my apprentice."
Lu Tian shook his hand, he didn't want to accept such a promising apprentice.
Qi Yun didn't speak, but he recognized Lu Tian in his heart.
At this time, Qingjia came over with Luoyi and Chen'er, and Lu Tian briefly told Li Qingxue and the three of them about the situation, which caused the two girls to be more sympathetic, if Lu Tian hadn't stopped them, Li Qingxue and Wu Xiaoyin would have gone over to comfort them.
Lu Tian let Qingjia walk behind, Luoyi and Chen'er walked on the right side of the crowd, and he and Li Qingxue stayed on the left, even if there was danger, the periphery was full of combatable people, who could react in time.
Although this side is desolate, it does not mean that there are no zombies, at this time, more than 100,000 people are evacuated, and the momentum is huge, which naturally attracts the zombies around, if it is not for some garrisons and transcendentals, it is estimated that many people will die.
Lu Tian and his party were also attacked by zombies several times, but fortunately, the level of zombies was not high, and those on the periphery had experience in dealing with zombies, and there were no casualties for the time being.
More than ten kilometers, not too far, but most of the people brought too many things, and the speed of the crowd was not too fast, and it took two hours to walk halfway.
Along the way, many people who were reluctant to go further chose to stay in a nearby place, preferring to live in a building rather than sleeping in the wilderness.
It used to be very desolate, but it is completely wild, and it is full of rocks, even if the plants grow relatively luxuriantly, it is difficult to cover all the places, and it looks like it has been gnawed by dogs in the distance, which is very ugly.
The zombies are gradually disappearing, but they are more dangerous, because there are many wild wolves in this generation, attracted by the crowd, howling in the distance, and once someone is alone, they will pounce and eat the unlucky ghost.
However, there are also some hares and pheasants and the like, who are startled from among the grass, and naturally cannot escape the survivors who are hungry and have green eyes, so they can only suffer.
However, the most frightening thing is those who were injured by zombies, because of concealment, the virus spread in a small area among the population, claiming thousands of lives.
This escape cleaned up the human race again, leaving behind countless corpses, the unlucky and the slow-runners, all of whom fell on the road.
The virus has an incubation period of half a minute to five or six minutes, so everyone was a little caught off guard, and among Lu Tian and his party, because of the chaos, a child was inexplicably infected and died under the virus infection. The child was found too late to be saved, even if there was serum.
When this happened, Qi Yun and the others were gloomy and walked in a depressed mood.
Especially Qi Yun, who held the spitting technique given to him by Lu Tian tightly in his hand, he watched Xiao Hua turn into a zombie and bury it with his own hands, and the heart of the strong man was stimulated and became more determined.
"As long as I can cultivate, I won't give up."
……
For another three hours, under the gloomy sky, the terrain slowly undulated and gradually increased, and the outline of the mountains appeared in the distance, like a hidden giant serpent, showing an inky color.
"Ahead is the place where the government is preparing to build a new base, but the base can't be built in a day, so let's find a suitable place to settle down first."
As the leader, Lu Tian has to play a leading role, and when he speaks, his spiritual power has already spread out, secretly looking for a suitable place.
There are more than eighty orphans in this group, plus themselves and others, it is nearly ninety, and the general place is not good at all, Lu Tian saw a lot of locations, and the environment was good, but it was too small, so he could only give up.
For a while, I could only keep moving forward.
Not far away, there are already hundreds of vehicles of all kinds parked, and thousands of people are busy, all of them are big families and big forces in the original base, these people have their own tents, and they are stationed directly in the same place.
Ordinary survivors can only find a good location, as long as it doesn't rain, with some things they bring, they can sleep in the open for a few days.
Behind the big forces, there are also military and government people, and some tents have already been set up, but most of them are holding instruments to measure the surrounding terrain in preparation for the next construction.
The place chosen by the military is surrounded by hills of hundreds of meters on three sides, and there is a stream between the mountains on the right, which is safe, but some conditions are insufficient, and there are too few water sources than this, and a stream is obviously not enough for more than 100,000 people to use, and the plants on the mountain are not luxuriant, indicating that there is a shortage of water here, which will become a big trouble.
Lu Tian frowned and continued to observe the surrounding terrain, his eyes caught a glimpse of a large stone slope a hundred meters away, at the back of the mountain, just avoiding the mountain wind, and the surrounding area was empty, easy to be vigilant, and immediately made up his mind, so he led the others there.
Ten minutes later, nearly 90 people climbed to their destination panting, with a gentle slope ten meters long and five meters wide under their feet, and some weeds were growing, and the inside of the mountain was all composed of large stones, more than ten meters high, and the whole of them was submerged into the mountain.
"Lu Tian, there is nothing to shelter from the wind and rain here, and we don't have tents, but what can we do."
Li Qingxue was a little worried, it was winter now, and the temperature at night would most likely drop below freezing, how could these children stand it.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it naturally."
"Wu Bin, you and Qi Yun take them to the mountains over there to pick up some dry firewood, and they can make a fire in the morning."
Lu Tian pointed to a big mountain on the right, where there were a lot of lush plants, and even in the periphery, he could pick up some firewood.
"Yes, Captain."
Wu Bin put down the things on his body, only took a knife, and left with Qi Yun and more than twenty boys, at this time, many people thought of this, if they went late, the dry firewood on the edge might be gone.
"You can stay and take care of these little ones, and tidy up your things by the way."
"Now you get out of the way, I'm going to dig a hole in this stone wall to accommodate so many people to sleep."
Lu Tian put his hand on the cyan stone, and felt his spiritual power.
"Brother Lu, you are too much~"
Wu Xiaoyin covered her mouth, knowing why Lu Tian chose here.
However, seeing that Lu Tian seemed to be doing something, he didn't dare to disturb, pulled the curious little guy next to him three meters away, and then looked at Lu Tian silently.
"There are stones within 20 meters, so it shouldn't affect the overall balance because of the excavation."
Lu Tian opened his eyes and pulled out the Wuhuang in his hand, only his weapon was enough to break through the mountain rocks.
Click~
With a slight crisp sound, the tip of Lu Tian's knife shook on the stone, and the palm-sized stone was dug out by Lu Tian like tofu and fell at his feet.
After testing the hardness, Lu Tian's range of movement became larger, and with all his strength, he inserted the knife into a foot, and after reaching the pole at this time, his body turned right, put his right hand on the back of the knife, held the handle of the knife with his left hand, and his body slowly sank, and the blade also went down, and the entire stone wall was like a cake, which was cut by Lu Tian.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
The child next to him had stars in his eyes and clapped his hands.
Li Qingxue and the other four adults also saw the iron cut like mud for the first time, and they all watched with interest.
In the eyes of others, it is like cutting tofu, but in Lu Tian's heart, it is not so simple, to this extent, Wuhuang's sharpness and his strength are indispensable, especially Wuhuang, without this sharp weapon, he has a lot of energy, and he can't quickly make a hole.
The surface of this mountain is not flat, but Lu Tian still has to dig a little bit to make an area one foot deep, and then he can quickly dig out other areas on this area.
Bang~
A tabletop-sized stone fell, and this time Lu Tian only cut four sides, because the last side was already empty, so he could get it out as a whole.
Lu Tian has probably planned the content of the cave, first a public area, like a corridor, and then a large area inside as a living room, and then dug out more than ten rooms on three sides of the living room, and ten people live in each room, which can basically solve the accommodation problem of outsiders.
Fortunately, the rocks in this mountain are big enough, otherwise it would not be good to dig out the earth, which would be very damp, even more damp than a room full of stones.
This project is a bit huge, it can't be completed in a day, if his true qi is still there, it can naturally be done easily, but not now, and it's already four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's almost dark, so he can only make a big hole to shelter from the wind and rain.
Sweat gradually flowed from Lu Tian's face, indicating that he had done his best.
"Wipe off the sweat and drink saliva."
Li Qingxue stood next to Lu Tian and handed over a towel and a glass of water.
"I'm not thirsty, I'll keep you to drink, this fire hasn't started, and you don't dare to drink raw water."
Lu Tian shook his head, he had a lot of water stored in his body, enough for him to use it like this for a day, and he was indeed not thirsty.
"Then wipe your sweat!"
Li Qingxue stared straight at Lu Tian, and it looked like she wouldn't leave without wiping her.
Lu Tian had no choice but to take the towel, wipe off the sweat on his forehead, and return it to the satisfied Li Qingxue.
"Sister Xue, do you give your towel to Brother Lu?"
Wu Xiaoyin's voice suddenly interjected, and Li Qingxue's cheeks flushed after hearing this, "Little Nizi, what are you talking nonsense again!" ”
She snorted softly, pinched the towel, and went over to teach Xiaoyin a lesson.
The children next to him shouted excitedly, which diluted the oppressive atmosphere caused by the death of their companions.
Lu Tian found that there were a lot of broken stones under his feet, so he asked Luoyi, Chen'er, Li Qingxue and others and those children to move them outside and pile them up, so that they could simply make a protective belt.
Two hours later, it was already dark, Wu Bin and the others also came back, lit the fire, and the cold mountain finally warmed a little.
On the mountain wall, a rectangular space three meters deep and about ten meters wide appeared, and everyone was staying inside and chatting around the fire.
And Lu Tian disappeared, so he naturally went hunting.
There were very few animals around, especially those that had been hunted by the survivors and even the transcendents who had migrated, and even fewer were left, Lu Tian walked two kilometers before he came across a pheasant, and after quickly killing it, it took another half an hour to get enough prey.
Seven pheasants, larger in size than the previous chickens, weighed three or four pounds after feathering, and the three hares were fattened, each weighing more than ten pounds, and they were all tied by him with a rope and carried in his hands.
He came out to hunt, and naturally had the idea of avoiding the discovery of the space ring, and when he was about to arrive, Lu Tian walked to a place where there was no one, he took out a lot of pots and pans and put them in a pocket, and walked back together.
But as soon as he approached, he saw that there were quite a few people around the cave, and there were quite a few of them.
