Chapter 10: The Man and the Woman in the Firelight
Saw? Chen Xiaowu was startled, and then remembered that there really seemed to be a 'wire saw' in the buckle of his belt.
So he lifted up his clothes and pulled his belt from his waist.
This belt is also bought on Taobao, and occasionally the belt is taken out to show off during the live broadcast, and there is a small hidden grid in the clip of the belt, and the dark grid is buttoned open, and you can see that there is a small wire wire saw about 30 cm long that is rolled up.
On the front of the clip is a compass with a small groove underneath, and a three-centimeter-long bar of magnesium rods is hidden on the side of the clip.
This kind of multi-functional outdoor belt clip, only 28 yuan on Taobao is also free shipping, and the word "import" is added to the live broadcast room, and he sells it for 58 to earn money for those outdoor enthusiasts who usually stay in the city and go to work from 9 to 5 but have dreams of freedom.
Chen Xiaowu remembered that there seemed to be a news a few years ago, saying that the housewives of China organized a group to go to the island country to buy a smart toilet sleeve, and for a time bought out the toilet seat of the island country, and then the media tracked it, these so-called high-tech toilet seats of the island country turned out to be made in Hangzhou, and the products in the package of the island country are authentic MADEINCHINA, which was a joke for a while.
Chen Xiaowu found the wire saw from the clip, called Jiang Xiujing, the two found a pine tree the size of a bowl, and one person dragged one end of the wire saw, pulling back and forth for more than ten minutes, and then sawed off the small tree at the mouth of the bowl.
Then he broke off some of the thinner branches with pine needles, and folded them on one side, and the thicker branches were broken with both hands and feet and put them in the fire, so as to prevent the fire from being extinguished at any time.
The two sawed the trunk into several sections. Put them next to the fire, so that when you sleep at night, you can put these thick trunks in the fire and last all night.
After working for so long, Chen Xiaowu had already been hungry with his chest against his back, rested slightly, and by the way, he ate the burdock root and Jiang Xiujing he found to satisfy his hunger. It was already completely dark.
Chen Xiaowu, who had eaten a few burdock roots, although he still didn't feel full, at least he had something in his stomach, so he wouldn't be as hungry as before.
So he got busy again. The pine branches that had just been folded were placed next to the fire in the pit, and three or four layers were carefully spread on the ground. Then he dragged a handful of pine branches and laid a piece for Jiang Xiujing.
gestured at Jiang Xiujing. Lying on the pine branches, the temperature at night will drop suddenly, in addition to losing body temperature from the air, the earth will also absorb more heat from the body, using a thick layer of pine needles to separate themselves from the earth, which can effectively prevent the two people from hypothermia at night.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiujing also lay on the pine branch that Chen Xiaowu laid for her. The pine needles are a little sharp when you hold them individually, but when you spread them together, you can still feel comfortable lying on them.
Chen Xiaowu pointed to his unempty hand and neck, and then pointed to the sky. Then he made a sleeping posture to Jiang Xiujing, "YOU, sleep!me later!" ”
Although he spoke English lamely, he saw Jiang Xiujing nodding and closed his eyes and rested as he said.
Chen xiaowu leaned back, got a pine branch, threw it behind him, adjusted a comfortable position, and leaned on it, if he was camping in peacetime, he would basically not encounter any danger in this land, but at this time. Chen Xiaowu felt that it was better to be cautious, and the two of them took turns to sleep, so that if there was an emergency, they would not be caught off guard.
Besides, now I don't feel sleepy at all because I have slept all day during the day.
This world has begun to change, and from the moment he met Liu Jianbin yesterday, his fate has also begun to change with this world. He glanced at Jiang Xiujing, who was resting with his eyes closed.
Liu Jianbin wants to send this girl to Binjiang City by himself, it was originally only a day's journey, but how long will it take for him to successfully send her to Binjiang in the case of biochemical apocalypse?
The concept of biochemical apocalypse has been conceived for decades and has been dissected from various perspectives such as human nature, science, ethics, and even mythology.
Zombies are raging, order is disrupted, materials are in short supply, people are fighting for their lives with zombies, people are fighting for their lives with nature, and people are fighting for their lives, in this case, how long can they live? And how to fulfill Liu Jianbin on his deathbed?
Chen Xiaowu had a headache.
In the quiet night, Jiang Xiujing's steady breathing was heard, and after listening carefully, the bareheaded little girl was still snoring slightly.
Remembering that she was brought to China in a box, I couldn't help but feel a little pitiful for this girl.
Alone, in a foreign country, her relatives are no longer there, if she hadn't released her by mistake, her fate would have ended in that box in the future.
It's unfair to think about it!
Chen Xiaowu suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette, but the cigarette in his pocket had already been soaked in the river when he saved Jiang Xiujing last night.
So the addiction to cigarettes made his mood start to be a little irritable.
Bored, I pulled off a few pine needles and threw them into my mouth, some of them were slightly sweet, and more of them were bitter.
Chen Xiaowu didn't dislike it, he chewed one in his mouth, spit it out, and chewed the other. This kind of action can make him slightly less anxious about smoking.
What will we do with the food tomorrow, the two of us tonight have each eaten seven or eight burdock roots, and there are less than ten left, and what will they have to eat in this forest after eating them tomorrow morning?
The surrounding area of this hill has long been reclaimed into farmland, otherwise tomorrow I will go down to the rice field and eat a handful of rice ears? But what if you run into a zombie?
It must be because zombies don't feel anything, once they find a living person, it's like seeing a father killer, there is no physical limit of a normal person at all, it will not be tired, and it will not have a human sense of self-protection.
As long as it can move, it will use every inch of its strength to pounce on the target. Therefore, their speed is now a little faster than that of normal humans, and of course, it may be that the person they are chasing will also burst out with more strength, which may not be known.
But Chen Xiaowu didn't dare to take risks, he still clearly remembered the scene in the morning, the mutated zombie lying on the old lady's body and frantically biting the old lady's body, and her intestines and internal organs were ripped to the ground.
If you are thrown to the ground by a zombie and bitten alive, you can't die for a while, and you can only watch it eat your body one by one in severe pain, just thinking about it makes people shudder.
He had been frightened by the scene in the village during the day.
In the final analysis, Chen Xiaowu is just an ordinary person, struggling to survive by playing some clever tricks and speculating and selling some small things.
Shrinking his body, Chen Xiaowu suddenly felt a heavy weight coming from the pocket of his clothes, and he suddenly remembered that he still had a pistol in his arms.
So he hurriedly took out the pistol from his bosom, and by the bright light of the fire, the black spear god exuded a metallic luster, and he looked at it again and again for a long time, and then took it out of the handle of the gun*.
Huang Chengcheng's bullet was tightly pressed into the *, 1, 2, 3, 4 ..... Chen Xiaowu counted carefully, Liu Jianbin committed suicide with one, and now there are a total of 14 rounds.
You have 14 bullets, so if you're careful, you should still have a chance to fight if you don't touch more than 3 zombies. Thinking about it like this, a trace of courage rose in my heart.
With this pistol, if you just pick up an ear of rice in the rice field near the hill, it shouldn't be a big problem!
Then he remembered the fully automatic rifle that Liu Jianbin was carrying at the beginning, and secretly regretted that if he had been more bold and took out the rifle, wouldn't he be able to walk sideways in this small village.
I don't know how long it took to be cranky, and Chen Xiaowu also fell asleep in a daze.
When the sky was bright, Chen Xiaowu stretched lazily, I don't know when he slept in a daze last night, but he was awakened by freezing not long after.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the firewood in the fire was burned, and the fire was smaller, so I hurriedly put the sawn wood into the fire, and soon the fire grew up again, roasting Jiang Xiujing, who was already frozen and curled up*.
He rolled over and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Xiaowu looked at the silent woods, and it didn't seem to be dangerous. After so many days of fear, this girl finally had a good night's sleep, so don't call him. tightened the clothes on his body, and continued to be confused until dawn.
Jiang Xiujing beside him was no longer there, he stood up suspiciously, but he still didn't see Jiang Xiujing's shadow, so he remembered the small pond where the two of them drank water yesterday, and walked over.
Sure enough, before he got closer, he saw Jiang Xiujing's petite figure, looming in the weeds by the pond.
Chen Xiaowu walked over, Jiang Xiujing heard the movement, and turned around, her beautiful face was full of water droplets. Seeing that the person who came was Chen Xiaowu, he smiled slightly, continued to squat down and began to wash his face.
A large patch of dew gathered on the weeds, staining Chen Xiaowu's pants, and getting wet, Chen Xiaowu lowered his head and saw that Jiang Xiujing's little feet that were red from the cold were stained with pieces of sludge and blades of grass.
If you go down the mountain today, by the way, help her get a pair of shoes, such a beautiful pair of little feet, if you cut a wound, it's a pity. Chen Xiaowu suddenly had such an idea.
patted Jiang Xiujing's shoulder, Jiang Xiujing had already washed her face and was gently wiping the water droplets on her face with her sleeve. Seeing Chen Xiaowu patting her, he turned around.
"water~drink" Jiang Xiujing understood, took out the water purifier from her pocket and handed it to Chen Xiaowu.
Chen Xiaowu simply took a few sips of water, handed the water purifier to Jiang Xiujing, and pointed in the direction of the village.
"Gogogo, well, eat... food..."Jiang Xiujing frowned. I don't know if I didn't understand or disagreed with Chen Xiaowu's opinion. Chen Xiaowu was a little impatient, and he was thinking about how to understand what he was going to say, so he saw Jiang Xiujing pull up his sleeves and walk towards the west of the hill.
The hill is not big, and after walking for about ten minutes, the two came to a cliff, which was more than 20 meters high, and a large piece of the original mountain was dug up to form this small cliff.
This small cliff is slanted against the small village that the two of them passed through yesterday, surrounded by lush woods, and it is difficult to see this small cliff from the perspective of the village road below, but on this cliff, you can clearly see every courtyard of the village below.
At this time, the small village, shrouded in mist, was unusually quiet.
