Chapter VII

When I entered the door, I looked around, the yard was not big, and there were some car tires scattered on the ground, rusty oil drums, some rusty tools, and dusty and oily clothes.

The cash truck and Q7 drove in, and the minibus really couldn't fit down, so the windows were closed, the doors were locked, and they had to park outside.

The sun is setting in the sky to shed its last rays, and as the sun goes down, the temperature also drops, after all, there are still 3 days before the Spring Festival, and now strictly speaking, it is still winter!

There is a latch on the inside of the yard gate, which can be reversed, and it is obviously welded by the owner with steel bars, which is extremely strong, and the style of the gate is the same, rough, atmospheric, strong, ugly!

The two-story building has no layout, just three rooms below, three rooms above, and an outdoor staircase without handrails, a typical small second floor in the northwest countryside in the 90s. There are no renovations.

There are six houses in total, and the wooden doors are locked, and there are no signs of vandalism. For the sake of caution, Li Jie still sent Wang Kai a leather armor, ignored his surprised little eyes, and said directly without explanation: "Put it on, come with me to check it!" ”

With Wang Kai's strong labor, of course Li Jie can't let him be idle, Li Jianguo and Zeng Aiguo are in their 50s after all, this day's rush has made the two tired enough, according to Wang Kai's previous performance in the community, although he is a little less courageous, he is still reliable!

The two of them wore masks, leather armor, and iron axes, and they were just a blood-red cloak! If you don't know, maybe you think it's the Spartan warriors who have crossed over!

Li Jie didn't let Wang Kai walk in front as a meat shield, but walked in front by himself, holding an iron axe, walked to the westernmost house, signaled Wang Kai to prepare, and then stomped on the wooden door!

The wooden door has been abandoned for a long time, and it is not a good wood, it has long been decayed, and its strength has been greatly reduced, and under one foot, the door has been kicked open!

A puff of dust swept out of the door, and even though I was wearing a mask, I could still smell a smell of decay. By light, this must have been a garage for repairing cars, and the house was full of parts, tools, and the like. Color striped cloth, canvas and the like are also messy all over the ground.

Exited this room, walked to the second room, and stomped open again, this used to be a living room for entertaining passing drivers, a tattered leather sofa, an ancient wooden shape, a completely 60~70s style old coffee table, a few iron stools welded by themselves, and nothing else. Safe!

In the last house, Li Jie was about to kick the door, Wang Kai barried, and argued: "Brother Jie, I'll come, I'll come!" ”

As he spoke, he rushed to the front and stepped up, and the wooden door slammed...... Didn't open it! It was embarrassing at this moment, and several ladies standing in the courtyard behind the two of them laughed all at once, especially Xiao Lin, giggling non-stop.

Zhao Jianyun, the kid who fell his head and was not very happy, also broke into laughter at the moment, and laughed with a smile, the child didn't understand what the end was, and he didn't understand current affairs, he laughed innocently, as if he suddenly dispelled the haze of the end of the world, and gently sprinkled a ray of hope in everyone's hearts.

Except, of course, Wang Kai.

This kid is embarrassed and about to commit cancer, I just saw Li Jie kick open a door, clean and neat, very handsome, just like in the movie, that's called a handsome, why can't it be his turn?

With a mask, I can't see my face, but my ears are already red, and I don't dare to look back when I listen to the laughter from behind. The door was kicked open and hit the wall behind it, bouncing back halfway back.

When Rui opened the door, the furnishings of the room came into view, and an honest stove with wheat straw appeared in front of him, and the walls of the room had long been smoked black. There are also piles of wheat straw and dry firewood that have been left in the corner for an unknown amount of time. On the stove, a large iron pot with a diameter of at least 70~80 cm (cm) is very eye-catching, after all, it is rare to see this thing now!

In a bookcase-like cabinet next to it, there are a lot of dishes, chopsticks and plates scattered around, and the ash has fallen into a thick layer, and it is impossible to see the original appearance.

Kitchen.

Wang Kai looked at the kitchen in front of him, and sighed in disappointment, he still had the idea of treasure hunting, maybe there were some rare things in it, it turned out to be a kitchen.

Li Jie's eyes lit up! If you give a gas stove, an induction cooker or something, you really have to be blind, but with this wood stove, you can have a good meal tonight!

The two exited the house and went up the second floor from an open-air staircase outside. Li Jie on this staircase was trembling, there were no handrails on the side, and the staircase steps were narrow and high, so he must have made it so anti-human in order to save materials! Li Jie secretly slandered himself. He actually didn't understand that in those years, it was a great thing to be able to build a small second floor, and as for whether the stairs were easy to walk or not, it was not considered at all.

I went up the stairs to the corridor on the second floor, fortunately, an iron railing was installed on the edge of the corridor, although it was rusted, but the iron pipe was welded, and it should be strong! It is 100 times more reliable than the handrails of the commonly used stainless steel pipe lanes.

The aisle is narrow, and two people can't stand in front and back, Li Jie motioned to Wang Kai to stand on the side, he was in front, or one foot, the door was open!

The furnishings were pretty simple, an old-fashioned writing desk, a double bed with only a bed board left, an empty wardrobe, and nothing else.

Then to the middle room, which was empty, with nothing but a pile of garbage in the corner.

The third house was better, with two bunk beds, a total of four beds, a table, and nothing else.

After confirming the safety, Li Jie poked his head out and smiled at the people downstairs: "Okay, the upstairs is safe, you can live with peace of mind!" ”

Zeng Pei cheered and ran into the house.

After looking around, he ran to Li Jie with an anxious face and said, "Husband, this, nothing, how can we sleep at night!" If you don't have a quilt or mattress, you can't freeze to death? ”

Li Jie was also stunned when he heard it, when he set off from home, he just wanted to get food, the seasoning, where are the pots, and the clothes are also some emergency, but I really forgot to take the bedding!

Li Jie, who looked confused, hurriedly found his mother and said that there was no bedding, Xie Xiaoli smiled proudly, looked at Han Caixia next to her, the two old ladies held each other's hands, and said with a smile: "You guys." Where do you want to get these, your mother and I have already prepared, 2 silk quilts, in the trunk of the cash truck, black plastic bags are covered, take it! As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly hesitated, and then said: "Ah, it's bad, you only have two beds thick at home, I think there is a cover on the car at night, but Wang Kai Xiaolin, the two children, as well as Xiao Liu and Jianyun, they came suddenly, we don't have anything superfluous!" ”

Zeng Pei thought for a while and answered: "It's really not good, two quilts, men sleep together, women sleep together, squeeze and warm, at least they have to be covered." ”

Li Jianguo, who was next to him, walked over, and when he heard this, he also nodded and said yes, so he could only do so. His family covered the quilt and let everyone else freeze, whether it was Lao Li's family or Lao Zeng's family, they couldn't do this!
