Chapter 425 A Different Situation
Deng Zeng sat on Chen Bin's sand boat, thinking back to what his uncle had told him before boarding.
"Go to them, make more friends, and leave a way back."
The sound of the motor of the sand boat spread along the river, and the ship was loaded with a lot of goods moved from the warehouse, most of these packages were not opened, Chen Bin and the others just relied on the information on the package list to bring back the types they needed.
Because Deng Wuqi asked Deng Zeng to follow him on the ship, Chen Bin gave up his plan to go to the health service center to carry medicines on the return trip. He didn't want this location to be known by the people in the other camps for the time being, because the supplies he was currently exchanging with Deng Wuqi were the medicines here.
If the other party knows that there is such a place to pick up the medicine directly, the future transaction may be affected.
"Deng Zeng, your uncle is good," Chen Bin saw that Deng Zeng was thinking about things, and he was ready to ask him directly before he didn't have time to inquire about Deng Wuqi.
"Well, my uncle sacrificed a lot of things for me," Speaking of his uncle, Deng Zeng's heart suddenly felt a little more apologetic, "When I was young, I didn't know, but when I grew up and listened to others, I realized how much my uncle had paid for me." ”
"My parents died young, and my uncle raised me. Because of living with me, my uncle used to blow the objects he had dealt with, and then he went on a blind date when he was older, and other women didn't want to marry to be a 'stepmother', and after being disgusted by others, my uncle also broke off the idea of marrying a wife. ”
"I used to be ignorant, and I thought it would be awkward to suddenly have multiple strangers at home, so I was quite happy to see that my uncle didn't negotiate every blind date. Later, when I heard others talk about it, I realized that my uncle had been living a very hard life for me. ”
Deng Zeng said this and sighed, "In the old mansion of the Hua family, my uncle also covers me. ”
Chen Bin nodded, and listened to Deng Zeng bring the topic to the Hua family's old mansion, so he followed his words and asked, "How is the situation in the Hua family's old mansion, I feel that you are quite abundant in terms of materials." ”
"Hey, how abundant," Deng Zeng said with a bitter face, "It's not a problem for us to mix with the people who follow Fa Ge to have a full stomach, but it is difficult for most people to eat enough, especially those who live in the tiled house." ”
"Tile house?" Qiao Xingyu was a little curious when he heard this word, and he already faintly felt in his heart that there was some class concept in the Hua family's old mansion.
"There are two places in the old mansion of the Hua family, one is built with cement buildings, and the other is still the former tiled house." Deng Zeng explained, "We are the people who are with Fa Ge, and after Fa Ge became the boss of the camp, everyone lived in a cement building, and most of the others lived in tiled houses. ”
When Chen Bin heard him say this, he immediately understood the class structure of the Hua family's old mansion. "Do you have a lot of people following Fa Ge?"
"Not much," Deng Zeng shook his head, "There were only a few before, all of them were old people who followed Fa Ge from the logistics team, and my uncle and I were one of them, and then Fa Ge pulled a few more from the rest of the camp. ”
"How many people are in your camp?" Qiao Xingyu asked.
"More than a hundred, but nearly half of them are old people, women and children."
"So many people!" Deng Zeng's answer surprised everyone, there were only about 30 people in the detention center, and there were hundreds of people in the Hua family's old mansion.
"So a lot of people can't get enough to eat, and the weather is getting colder and colder, and there are a lot less things that can grow in the ground, and some people are digging wild vegetables to eat." Deng Zeng's heart was relatively straight, and his uncle asked him to make more friends, and he also treated Chen Bin and them as friends, "Many people over there are sick, and your medicine can be regarded as a solution to our urgent need." ”
"What disease do they have?" Chen Bin learned some about the current situation of the Hua family's old mansion from Deng Zeng's words, and the condition mentioned by the other party suddenly caught his attention.
"The flu," Deng Zeng said, "is already very difficult in winter, and now everyone can't eat enough and don't have enough clothes and clothing, and when they get sick, they will pass it on one by one." ”
"If this is not controlled, it will be really troublesome," Qiao Xingyu knew that the flu was so bad, if it was before the disaster, it was nothing, but in this current environment, not to mention the Hua family's old house, even if there was a flu in the detention center, it would be enough for everyone to drink a pot.
"Isn't it," Deng Zeng nodded, "Your medicine is a life-saving thing for our people." ”
"Your situation is so serious, don't you want to go to other places?" Chen Bin asked tentatively.
"I've thought about it, but where can I go? The camp is full of people who have escaped from outside, and now there are zombies everywhere outside, who dares to go out, even my uncle is forced to occasionally go out to tow the goods and come back. We are also lucky, the old house of the Hua family is surrounded by two small ports, and the way out is only two cement bridges in the north and south. The north one has been blocked, and the south one has been sealed off, and only when the truck is out is opened. If that's not the case, the zombies outside will be all over if they run in. Don't look at the number of people there, there were quite a few people who died when we went to clean up the zombies in the camp earlier. ”
"Our situation is much better than your camp, you can see it today," Qiao Xingyu said, "We have teachers, and doctors, and children are learning every day." ”
"Really?" Deng Zeng's eyes widened, Qiao Xingyu's words made him a little incredible. In addition to beating people at work, the children in the old mansion of the Hua family are basically the tools of those adults to vent their anger, and some people with bad tempers will add fists and kicks to these children if they are a little unhappy, and the only thing that is gratifying is that under Deng Wuqi's active intervention, there has been no incident of sexual assault on minors.
The women living in the tiled houses have no dignity to speak of, so many of them have made it their goal to move to a concrete building. But there are few people in the cement building, and it is difficult to get their blue eyes. Some of the women with outstanding looks and figures became the lucky ones, and after hugging their thighs, they began to become a barrier for other women to enter the concrete building.
Because these women know in their hearts that continuing to let other women in will not only not be a help, but will also compete with them for favor and share limited resources.
Therefore, the fewer women who enter the cement building in the future, but there are more and more women who want to go in, because living in the tiled house will be violated by men from time to time.
Compared with women and children, the life of the old people is more difficult, among them can endure hardship, it is good that those who can endure hardship, and those who can't endure hardship may be difficult to survive this winter, of course, to continue to live is not only to be able to endure hardship, but also to have a certain amount of luck, or some craftsmanship.
"Is it really your own that child?" Deng Zeng was a little envious of Chen Bin's conditions, there was no harm if there was no comparison. Originally, he thought that the condition of the Hua family's old mansion was the norm in the disaster, and even before he thought that the Hua family's old mansion might be much better than the camp of other survivors.
"It's the child we saved, but it's no different from our own child," Chen Bin said with a smile, "You'll know when we get there." ”
"Okay," Deng Zeng nodded, hoping that the sand boat would arrive at its destination sooner.
The sand boat passed by the river outside the health service center, and Qiao Xingyu deliberately pulled Deng Zeng to chat at this time, so that his attention would not fall on the riverbank.
Deng Zeng didn't notice that there was a health service center on the bank on the left side of the river, but even if he did, he wouldn't have thought that there would be medicine inside.
According to ordinary people's understanding, the concept of drugs should only exist in pharmacies, and if it wasn't for Ji Wenwen's reminder, Chen Bin would not have known that there would be many drugs in the health service center.
The sand boat returned to the Chuanyang River and docked at the pier behind the police station.
"Is this it?" Deng Zeng followed everyone off the boat and asked curiously.
"This is our outpost and dock," Chen Bin introduced him as he walked, "The camp is still behind, come with me." ”
At the door of the detention center, a black figure squatted there, and the black cat "sheriff" saw Chen Bin and them coming back, so he happily raised his tail and rubbed their trouser legs. The figure of the group appeared in the distance, but because the "sheriff" was here, it didn't dare to come over for the time being.
"You use cats to guard the door here?" Deng Zeng was a little surprised to see this black cat that was not afraid of life.
"And the dogs," Da Fei said and whistled, and the dango heard the whistle and wagged his tail and galloped over.
When the "sheriff" saw that Da Fei called the dumplings, he didn't resist much, and after rubbing the trouser legs of the people who came back, he left gracefully, leaving the dumplings here to jump and jump around everyone.
Cai Ji and Cheng Zixuan followed the figure of Tuanzi to the door, and they saw that there was an unfamiliar figure among the people who came back, so they asked with some curiosity, "Uncle Wang Ping you brought back a few days ago, what is the name of the uncle you brought back this time?" ”
"This is Uncle Deng Zeng," Chen Bin said to the two of them.
"Hello Uncle Deng Zeng," Cai Ji and Cheng Zixuan greeted Deng Zeng politely.
"Hello," Deng Zeng noticed that the two children looked very natural and looked healthy.
Cai Ji beckoned to the group, called it over, and began to rub its fluffy head, "I'll take Brother Xuan and the group to play." ”
"Go ahead, don't sweat like crazy." Qiao Xingyu smiled and waved at the two of them.
Deng Zeng was a little surprised by what he had just seen, compared to these two children, the children in the Hua family's old mansion were like the children in the slums, their eyes only had fear and a desire for food, and their bodies were always dirty.
Not many people care too much about those children, raising them is just out of basic humanitarian spirit, just like the cats and dogs in the countryside, as long as they don't starve to death.
