Although the village had been roughly swept around by us before, ensuring temporary safety, Suotian still ordered everyone to guard in three shifts.

In addition to Zheng Rongrong, several of us were also arranged into the list of guards.

In fact, it is said that it is a guard, it is better to say that a few people gather in front of the door to talk and laugh in a low voice, there is not a single walking corpse in the village at all, and the guards are just in case, and they can respond to emergencies in case of emergencies.

At this time, our meal time is no longer three meals a day, and it is solved one by one according to the order of morning, noon and evening.

In addition to eating together during the collective rest, most of the other times is to eat a little when you are hungry, and if you are not hungry, you don't eat, Shen Fengyangyang arranged the guard time at night, so he helped us to burn the fire together, this fire looks simple, it is really difficult to really do it, the two of them take turns to go back and forth or keep extinguishing the fire, and finally they heard the movement and came to see the lively lock of the sky, which can be regarded as really burning the fire.

In the afternoon, with the joint efforts of several people, we finally cooked half a pot of thick rice porridge, (children's shoes who have lived in the countryside should know, that kind of pot is usually very large)

I hadn't seen hot food for a long time, and the aroma of rice porridge rushed to my nose, and my saliva was almost dripping into the pot.

When I served the rice, I found that the bowl was not enough, and they were all very dirty, I pulled a large circle and only found some porcelain spoons, wasted a small bottle of water to simply flush, a group of people simply surrounded the pot with three layers inside and three layers outside the pot directly with a spoon to eat.

A group of us ate a cheerful, pitiful guard outside, one by one stretched their necks to look at us, the eyes were full of expressions like 'you eat slowly, save some', I accidentally aimed out, one by one the big men with guns, uniformly showing this kind of pitiful look, it is really unbearable.

Looking at the people around me who are usually expressionless, but at the moment they are elated because of a pot of simple rice porridge, I am a little hypocritical, and I can't help but sigh again.

The ancients often said that 'the people take food as the sky' is really true, from the current perspective of our past, it is indeed the case, no matter what world we are facing at the moment, no matter how difficult it is to live, whether it is a few hours ago so many of us just had a fierce battle with the walking corpse, at this moment, everyone around a pot of rice porridge can at least talk and laugh, this may be the purpose of so many of us who want to live hard.

I have always been calling for enjoyment of life, and I have always held a slightly sarcastic attitude towards this, always feeling that the so-called enjoyment is only reserved for those who have money, ordinary people like us, can only live for the sake of living, not to talk about enjoying or not enjoying.

But now my opinion is indeed a 180-degree turn, and the original call for enjoying life is actually true in the final analysis, but at that time, we valued too much of something in life, so that we ignored the joy of life itself, so many people shouted all day long, how hard life is, how tired life is, and how unfair fate and God treats him.

If we trace the source of these sufferings and tiredness, they are nothing more than two points, material insufficiency and psychological greed.

Shaking my head, I withdrew from the kitchen and stood in the yard, where the snow was still falling heavily, and the yard was already thick to the depth of my ankles.

The structure of the houses in this courtyard is very interesting, except for the gate, the other three directions are all built bungalows, just enclosing this courtyard, I really don't know how many people in this house, need to build so many houses out.

As soon as I ran under the eaves and was about to enter the house, my head was stunned, and it suddenly occurred to me that many people in the countryside would dig a cellar not far from the house to store some grain, mostly Chinese cabbage, sweet potatoes and other things. When I was a child, I saw it many times at my grandmother's house, but at that time my grandmother always scared me and told me that there was a ghost catching children in that hole, so I didn't dare to climb in and see it myself.

If we can find a cellar with something stored in it, then we're in good hands!

I roughly calculated the time in my mind, and when the chaos first broke out, the sky had just cooled slightly, and at that time, was there someone storing things in the cellar? After such calculations, I didn't speculate if there was anything in the cellar, but I suddenly found that today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve!

Looking back at the still noisy kitchen, I smiled heartily, maybe God thinks that it is not easy for us people to survive until now, so he designed such a coincidence, let us come here, those rice porridge may be its New Year's gift to us.

When Shen Xue and Xu Shu returned to the house with Zheng Rongrong, who was well-fed and well-fed, I was already a little drowsy wrapped in a quilt.

"It's delicious!" Zheng Rongrong smacked his lips and sighed as soon as he came in from outside, and Zheng Yiyi also seemed to understand her words and shouted twice with a crisp 'Wangwang'.

I shrunk my neck under the covers and opened my eyes to look at them.

After Shen Xue took off Zheng Rongrong's little padded jacket, she patted her ass and motioned to get into my quilt, I lifted the quilt a little, and Zheng Rongrong immediately got in like a little loach.

Shen Xue and Xu Shu also lay down in the quilt next to them, and we were lying on a long kang connected together, so it was relatively loose to sleep four people.

"Chen Yang, tell me if we will go to another house to look for it tomorrow, maybe we can find some food to come back." Shen Xue's quilt was not warm, and her speech was a little trembling.

"Of course you have to find it, this village is so natural, there are not a few walking corpses, don't you search for them, isn't that a fool?" Xu Shu continued.

I nodded: "That is to say, it is rare to have such a good opportunity, and the group of people who lock up the sky are not stupid, even if we don't say it, they will also order someone to find it." ”

"Oops~ That's good." After Shen Xue sighed happily, she suddenly turned to me who was sleeping in the middle and asked, "Chen Yang, you say, in fact, it's good for us to live here for a long time in the future, right?" When the weather is warm, you can also plant something in the field in front of you, but this place is remote, and there will be no walking corpses like before. How cool are we living in isolation here? ”

Before I could reply, Xu Shu replied first: "It seems to be quite comfortable now, in our opinion, this place is indeed remote enough, but those walking corpses don't know what remoteness is, there is no wall or other things to block it, how can this place be called temporary security." ”

"But when we came, weren't there no walking corpses here?"

"It is estimated that I was attracted by the walking corpse group in front of me, not to mention the walking corpse group for the time being, the number is a drop in the bucket compared to the national population, in case there is a larger number of people who are overwhelmed and killed, hiding in such a village, it can only be said to be waiting for death."

Shen Xue pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but after thinking for a while, she probably felt that what Xu Shu said made sense, so she could only respond: "That's right." ”

After listening to the conversation between the two of them, I think this is, a realistic version of innocence meets reality.

Zheng Rongrong was lying in my arms and was already a little confused, I pulled the quilt upwards, covered her tightly, and then said to Shen Xue: "They have to want to stay in the lock, look at their route is well organized, if it weren't for this heavy snow, we still have to follow the road, they must have a destination to go." ”

Shen Xue's expression was stunned, and she seemed to think of something and hurriedly asked, "Didn't Suo Tian tell you where we were going?" ”

I shook my head: "I didn't say it." ”

"Please! Why don't you know to ask? Shen Xue looked at me helplessly.

"Didn't you think of it all along?" I put on an innocent look.

Actually, what didn't you expect? I've always wanted to know where they are going, who they are, but I know who Suotian is, what he wants to tell you, he will tell you if you don't ask, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to tell you, then don't want to ask anything from his mouth.

But... This also brings us to another question, he has not told us where he is going, is he not going to take us to the place he is going? If that's the case, then what is his plan in his heart?

Halfway through, how many of us were left behind?

It's not impossible, didn't he tell anyone about it when he left?

"Speaking of which, I looked at the map of the lock sky last time, and looking at the traces he drew on it, it seems that he is going to go towards Yunnan." Xu Shu on the side suddenly spoke.

Shen Xue hurriedly propped herself up and asked me who was sleeping in the middle, "Did you see that?" Know where your destination is? ”

Xu Shu shook her head and said: "I only saw a few words of Yunnan Province on the atlas, I don't know the specific location, and it's just speculation, maybe the lock just happened to turn to that side." ”

Shen Xue lay back a little deflated.

I didn't answer again, looking at Shen Xue who was still muttering after lying back, I suddenly remembered that this morning, she seemed to be a different person, and I was just about to ask out loud, but I thought that Xu Shu was still there, so I decided to have the opportunity to ask her again alone.

At least for now, it seems that her mind is completely normal.
