Chapter 319: Power and water outages
Seeing Tian Xinyu asking, Su Man replied to her with a smile, anyway, now she also knows the time lag zone. "Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Hair"
Su Man nodded towards Tian Xinyu: "That's right, Sister Xinyu, we planted some, and planted them with the soil that Wan Wan was searching for. ”
"Oh, that took some work, didn't it?" Tian Xinyu helped Su Man and Zuo Ning to hold the things and continued to ask.
"Well, it's okay, basically you don't have to manage it too much."
"It's amazing." Tian Xinyu couldn't help but sigh.
With a goal, everyone began to prepare, and Xuan Yu'er's injuries were also being treated.
After another two days, everyone was almost ready, and Xuan Yu'er's injury did not affect her movements, so she decided to set off early the next morning to do those small tasks.
In the evening, Su Man and Zuo Ning had just finished cooking dinner, and Zuo Ning went downstairs to call someone to come up for dinner, and it suddenly darkened at this time.
"Yikes! There was a power outage. Xuan Yu'er ran out of the house and shouted.
"Well, it's really a power outage, I don't know when this power will be restored?" Su Man turned over his hand and took out a candle, and Xuan Yu'er hurriedly lit the candle.
These candles have never been used, because the bases they have visited are basically supplied with electricity, and in the field, lighting candles is not suitable, and it is easy to be blown out by the wind, so they have been using flashlights in the field.
At this time, everyone downstairs also came up, Lu Wei held a fireball in his hand to illuminate everyone, and when he entered the house, he saw Su Man lighting a candle, so he put it down.
However, the light of a candle was really limited, Su Man took out a few more, and Lu Wei and Xuan Yuer lit a few candles and put them on the high places around them to illuminate the dining table.
"Haha, Manman, we're having a candlelight dinner, huh?" Xuan Yu'er said optimistically.
"I knew I would have eaten the barbecue steak today, so that it would be a candlelight dinner with red wine." Su Man also replied with a smile.
"I don't know why there was a sudden power outage. Will the power be restored at night. Lu Wei said suddenly.
"Let's hope it's not a big problem." Su Man took a bite of the dish and said.
"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow, let's eat first!" Xuan Yu'er said as she picked up the rice in the bowl.
The people finished eating. Su Man gave each of them two candles and a box of matches to bring down.
Sure enough, the power outage was not restored until the next morning, but they packed up and left as they prepared to go out on a mission.
There was no inspection at all when I went out, so I didn't use the time lag zone of the small mirror. And the crowd went out of base x.
All the way to the northwest, everyone has some collection tasks this time, so naturally they are looking for the city to start.
However, it only took two days to collect everything.
"Vine, we're moving too fast, aren't we? It only took three days to collect so many tasks, but fortunately I took the task two days in advance. Otherwise it's too fast. Zuo Ning said to Su Man.
Su Man shrugged: "That can't be helped, the task is done, and I hunted a lot of mutant beasts by the way." Otherwise, let's go back first, and then according to the second plan last time, ask Qi Shuai and his family out for barbecue, right? ”
"This is good, this is good, I absolutely agree." Xuan Yu'er clapped her hands and said.
Su Man smiled slightly: "Then we don't have to go back, just ask Lu Wei to drive an empty car to pick up people when the time comes." ”
Lu Wei nodded, now he doesn't need to drive, so he has naturally become the main force again.
Now the driving is Pi Jun and Tian Xinyu. Tian Xinyu's driving skills, as she said, are still very good.
It's still very good to have one more person to attack, especially since Lu Wei is second only to himself in the team, and because of this. This mission was done surprisingly quickly.
The car drove back for a while, not very far from base X.
Everyone found a more leeward location with a wide field of vision, Su Man took out the list and laid it, and everyone began to look for stones or something to build a barbecue rack.
And Su Man and Zuo Ning began to clean up the mutant beast's fur and internal organs.
Lu Wei drove back to base X to pick up Qi Shuai's family.
When he came to the gate of base X, Lu Wei drove in, but after coming in, he found that many people were outside and didn't know what they were doing.
drove the car to Qi Shuai's house, and Qi Shuai's family was also outside the door.
Lu Wei stopped the car and jumped down and asked, "Uncle Qi is good, aunt is good, why are you all outside?" ”
Seeing that Lu Wei was coming, Qi Shuai hurriedly got up, patted Lu Wei and said, "Where have you been?" I went to look for you, but you weren't home. ”
"Our team went on a mission, what happened?" Lu Wei saw that Qi Shuai's lips were chapped and bleeding, and his spirit was not particularly good, so he hurriedly asked.
"Ahem, it's been long after saying this, is there any water?" Qi Shuai didn't answer, Lu Wei asked instead.
"I don't have water here, I have it in the team. Let's go! Let's get in the car first! I'm inviting you out to eat, and I'll talk about it later. Lu Wei let Qi Shuai and his parents get into the car.
After the car started, Lu Wei drove away.
Probably really thirsty, Qi Shuai didn't say a word along the way, and Qi Jinhua didn't say anything.
It wasn't until they reached the spot where the rest of the Clover team stayed that the car had just stopped and the Qi Shuai family got out of the car.
Lu Wei hurriedly asked Su Man for a cup, and asked Zhong Tao to give each of the three people a glass of water, and the three of them drank it all, and then drank two cups in a row before it seemed to be somewhat relieved.
Su Man looked at the three people suspiciously, and asked, "Father Qi, Mother Qi, what's wrong with you?" ”
Qi Shuai finished drinking the water at this time, and he was relieved, and replied: "You guys went out to do the mission, I don't know, there is a power outage in base X." ”
"We know that! There was a power outage the night before we went out. Xuan Yu'er hurriedly replied.
"Yes! But after the power went out, you went out. Qi Shuai continued.
"Yu'er, listen to Qi Qi." Su Man said to Xuan Yu'er.
"Oh. Then you can say it quickly," Xuan Yu'er urged.
Qi Shuai just told him about the things in the X base in the past three days.
It turned out that there was no electricity after the power outage that day, and without electricity, many things could not be used, and everything else could be improvised, but the power of the water supply system stopped, which made people a little unprepared.
Some teams with water abilities in some squads naturally don't have much impact, but teams without water abilities are more miserable.
The base provides regular water supply, which is distributed at a fixed time, and each person can only receive one water, and after the time is over, there will be no more, and those who do not come out will not be counted as the number of people.
When Lu Wei went back just now, it was the time to distribute water, so everyone sat outside for this reason.
But there is very little water, enough to cook is not enough to drink, and enough to drink is hungry, so Qi Shuai's family is half hungry and half thirsty.
"That's right, you can eat more in a while, we have hunted a lot of mutant beasts this time." Su Man skewered the chopped meat, and a fire had been lit on the shelf.
The skewered meat skewers were handed to Zuo Ning, who spun back and forth on the fire.
"Zhong Tao, pour some more water for Qi's mother." Su Man saw that Qi Shuai's family still seemed to be very thirsty and licked their dry lips from time to time, so he said to Zhong Tao.
Zhong Tao poured water for Qi Shuai's family again, and the three of them still drank it all. How long have you been thirsty? Su Man couldn't help but smack her tongue, but she forgot how small the paper cup was! They usually don't feel thirsty and can't see it, but now the Qi Shuai family wants to hold a big bottle and drink it.
It's just that people have to ask so much to provide water, which makes Qi Jinhua a little embarrassed.
Su Man seemed to see that the three of them were still unsatisfied, so he simply found a stainless steel pot, which had just been taken out and unused, and rinsed it with water slightly, so that Zhong Tao filled a basin of water and served it to Qi Shuai's family.
The family actually drank not a drop left, and this time they sat contentedly and looked around, as if they wanted to help do something.
"Mom, you just have to wait for dinner." Su Man said to Qi Shuai's family with a smile.
"Xiao Su, you see that we don't do anything, how embarrassed." Qi's mother said a little unaccustomed.
"It's okay, Mom, there's nothing to get anymore, I'll be fine with these skewers in my hand." Su Man finished the meat skewer in his hand and said.
After all the skewers were made, they began to roast side by side, this time knowing that there were many people, Su Man deliberately asked everyone to set up two more shelves, so the meat was grilled side by side, and everyone went to turn it with their hands from time to time, while Su Man stood on the other side and sprinkled salt and cumin powder.
The smell of barbecue wafted out at once.
Originally, if it was baked, it would be eaten by Qi Shuai's family first, but Qi Shuai's family would wait for everyone to do anything, so Su Man simply pressed the fire next to him lower, and put the baked one on it to maintain the temperature.
After it was all baked, everyone sat down to eat.
"Don't go back at night, let's camp! There's no electricity anyway. Qi Shuai said happily to everyone.
"Then you are out there by yourself! You don't know how cold it is outside at night, and I miss my bed. Xuan Yu'er replied with a pout.
"Yes, we'll go back at night, it's still not safe in the wilderness. And when we go out on a mission, we have to go back to take a shower or something. Su Man also said.
"Alright! That's what I just said. Qi Shuai whispered back.
Then everyone burst into laughter.
Happy time always passed quickly, and everyone was going back after eating, Su Man asked Zhong Tao to help fill a few bottles of water for Qi Shuai's family to take back.
Qi Jinhua didn't refuse, these are all precious things, and I can't ask for them now.
And everyone returned to the X base, the four-leaf clover team sent the Qi Shuai family back before returning to their place, Su Man, Zhong Tao and Su Yuantong boiled hot water for everyone to take a bath, and it was already late after they were all done, Su Man didn't say anything, and everyone went to rest.
