Old John's house was a little dilapidated, a small log cabin built on four large trees. The wooden house is about five meters above the ground, and the ladder is a three-section folding ladder that can be retracted from above.

The people of the village seem to feel at ease only when they are off the ground, so they have built such a hanging village.

After inviting Benita into the house, Old John was a little restrained, and there was nothing to entertain at home, which made Old John feel very rude.

Benita saw Old John's embarrassment, and smiled kindly at the family of three:

"As your life-saving benefactor, I feel very good to accept your warm hospitality, thank you for bringing me to visit such a distinctive hanging building."

Caterina smiled sweetly, and then said, "This was built by my father himself, but it's a pity that he went to heaven!" I never heard from him, and my grandfather said it was because the postman might have turned into a zombie! Damn the end times! ”

Katerina's last sentence imitates the tone of old John, and a four-year-old girl imitates an old man who is about to be seventy years old, which looks very funny. However, Benita didn't laugh, just nodded at Old John, and then touched Katerina's head with her hand and said, "I think God will eventually send a new postman to deliver letters to you, but he may be busy in the last days, so he doesn't have time to do such a thing!" But it's always a good thing to wait with hope. Little Katerina, you can also observe the people around you carefully to see if there are any postmen from heaven among them! I've heard that the postmen there are kind-hearted, love to help others, and have the ability to protect the weak! If you meet such a person, follow him and ask him if there is any letter from heaven that belongs to your father. ”

Catalina's eyes widened, and she looked up at Benita and asked, "Does he know wings?" I mean, are the postmen of heaven angels? ”

Benita didn't answer Katarina's words, she didn't want to talk too much about heaven with this cute little girl! The world has been reduced to hell, and the girl of Spanish descent does not believe that heaven really exists.

"That's it! I'm just a passer-by, and I have something important to return to my hometown, Houston! Now that I've accepted your invitation to visit here, it's not rude to think I'm leaving! ”

Old John frowned, and said, "Beautiful girl! Houston is thousands of miles away, and it's on the other side of the continent, so it must be in danger, right? ”

Benita smiled and nodded, then said, "Yes! I have to go back! At the beginning of the last days, I came to this place because I wanted to do a favor to a friend! It's been two years now, and I think it's time for me to go back! I'm going home to see if my man has come to see me. He was in China in the East before the Great Tribulation, and I don't know if he had returned! ”

Old John said with pity: "China is too far away! Let's hope he'll be back! Beautiful lady, let me do something for you before you go, to show my gratitude to you! ”

Benita hurriedly said no, but Old John insisted, he felt that he could not accept Benita's favor in vain.

Eventually, Benita thought about it for a long time and said, "Okay! There's one thing you can do for me! ”

Thirty minutes later, Benita and the three grandchildren of John Sr. entered the courtyard wall of an abandoned residential area east of Williamsburg.

This fence is a bit higher than the walls of other nearby courtyards, about five meters high, and there are power lines above the walls.

The space in the courtyard is very large, and there is a vegetable garden behind the three connected houses.

Benita spoke while leading the way for the three of them: "It's safe here, there are few zombies nearby, and because there are many houses here, as long as you are careful, you won't be easily discovered by outsiders here." In other words, if you want to turn on the lights at night, you had better close all the curtains. ”

Old John asked a little strangely, "Is there electricity here?" ”

Benita smiled and nodded, didn't answer Old John's question, just took them on the tour.

"This house is a warehouse, and the space inside is almost 60 square meters.

But it has a full 300 square meters of underground warehouse, which is full of food and daily necessities, which my friends and I have collected and stored in the past two years, enough for your grandparents and grandchildren to eat for a few years, and the land behind it is very fertile, and there are seeds of various crops in the warehouse, if you farm, then I think you may be able to survive in this place forever. ”

Old John was a little shocked.

"So much food, put it in the warehouse and not rot and spoil? Although spoiled food can be eaten, but if rotten"

Benita said: "Rest assured, there is refrigeration and preservation equipment inside, so the food can be stored for a long time. ”

Before John Sr. could react, Benita took John Sr. to visit the other two rooms.

The equipment here is readily available, and all the electrical equipment is available, which means that there is electricity here.

After visiting every nook and cranny of the room, Benita finally said:

"Isn't it strange why these three houses are so special?

In fact, it was originally a laboratory of the CI organization. The water and electricity in this house are all separately wired, the water comes from the ground, and the electricity is more complicated.

Within ten miles of here, there are many windmill generators, and the energy they harvest can be transmitted to the distribution equipment in the room through underground pipelines.

The top of the house is actually made of high-strength solar panels made of special materials, which collect the energy of sunlight and convert it into electricity into power distribution equipment.

The construction of this house contains a lot of pre-apocalyptic high-tech, and I can't say for sure, because I'm not a CI staff member after all.

Mr. John, since you said you wanted to repay me, then you're welcome.

I hope you will stay here and help me take care of the electricity in this room, and I will give you some instructions and tell you some precautions so that you know how to maintain the electrical equipment here! My request is, don't let the power go out, keep it powered all the time, and if you can help me do that, that's a real help! ”

Old John saw Benita's solemn expression, and after a little consideration, he nodded in agreement.

After all, there is so much food here, which is a huge wealth for people in the last days.

But why did Benita ask him to take care of the electricity here? What does the so-called CI organization do?

Benita was very grateful when she saw that old John agreed, and said, "Thank you so much! Hey, there were three of us here, me and two CI staff. But some time ago, there was an accident that caused both CI staff members to die! But rest assured, the accident has been lifted, and there should be no similar danger here. ”

The little boy Jax seemed to like Benita, and said with a small fist on the side, "Benita, don't worry! I'll work with my grandfather to help you guard this place! Because I'm going to grow up very quickly and go from a kid to a man with eight-pack abs! ”

Not to be outdone, Kodelina exclaimed, "Hmm! I'll help protect this place too! ”

Benita smiled happily, she liked the two children more and more.

Old John was obviously more thoughtful, and he asked the most crucial question.

"Beautiful lady, I'm willing to help you do this, and I don't want to know why you're doing it. But how long do we need to stay here? ”

The expression on Benita's face darkened suddenly, and she thought about it for a while before saying:

"Well, it's up to you! It's best to be able to defend it for a few years, but you can always give up the place if you are in danger.

Because I'm supposed to be guarding this place, I'm already planning to leave, and I can't selfishly let you stay here instead of me.

Well, there's no secret, it's just a matter of getting rid of me with a very good Chinese friend. It's a pity I couldn't help her much."

Old John didn't understand what Benita said, but he saw that Benita seemed to be in a bad mood, so he hurriedly interrupted her and said, "Hmm! Beautiful lady you don't need to explain much to me. Since you saved the lives of our ancestors and grandchildren, we owe it to you! Don't worry, as long as it doesn't endanger the lives of my two children, Old John will definitely stay here until he dies, then, will you come back? ”

Benita nodded gratefully, and then said, "Maybe I'll come back, or maybe not." After returning to Houston, if my man hadn't gone to me, I could only understand that he had become a zombie or died in the last days. When the time comes, I should start my new life! Although the end times never seem to stop, those of us who are alive will still have to live, don't we? ”

Old John nodded, agreeing with Benita's statement.

Next, Benita took Old John's grandchildren around the front and back of the house a few times, and told Old John all the methods of using and repairing the equipment.

After doing all this, Benita simply said goodbye and left.

The sun had risen, and old John took Jax and Caterina by the hand, and stood in the courtyard looking at the house in front of him, full of curiosity, not knowing what secrets it hid. But it didn't take long for this curiosity to be replaced by other emotions.

"Let's go, two little ones, and go with Grandpa to see how much food Benita has prepared for us! I wish there was whiskey in it, haha!
