Chapter 32: Saving Lives
Now, in addition to the troops at the base, they are still pulling back fuel. The rest of the search teams have gone back to hunting. Now a truckload of fuel, there are not two mutant chickens worth anything, of course they don't do it. People are like that, when the effort is not equal to the return, no one will do it. Searching for fuel basically has to deal with zombies, and most of the places where oil is stored need to pass through the encirclement of zombies. And against a blue crystal zombie, it often takes several people to die, and the price is too great. Plus the team that went to search for oil, there were basically dozens of people, hundreds of people. If you do the math, everyone will not be able to share much money if they are evenly divided, so they will naturally quit.
No matter what others do, Xu Wei has made a fortune this time. At the spare oil depot of the smelting company, he brought back more than 20 truckloads of oil, and the price of oil at the base had already fallen a little outrageously. He has not yet brought back one-tenth of the oil in the smelting company's spare oil depot. Seeing that the price was too low, Xu Wei no longer went out to pull oil.
As the saying goes, Xu Wei, who has food in his hands and is not panicked, has a lot of wealth, and lives a free life. Practice boxing every day, play with guns, run out when you have nothing to do, and fight a mutant beast to improve your food. When Xu Wei was practicing martial arts in the open space downstairs, he got acquainted with Zhu Minghui and Zhang Dongheng, who also practiced boxing here, as well as Liu Yuxian and a few little guys. Originally, there were not many people in this base who could afford to buy a house, and the open space between the buildings was the place where everyone usually practiced martial arts.
What's more, they all have the experience of making a fortune on oil, and they are not long apart in time, and they are all new residents who have just moved here, so they naturally have topics to talk about. Xu Wei Xiwu is the same as Zhang Dongheng, Xiwu is purely a novice, and a few little guys are simply groping by themselves, and Zhu Minghui has become their instructor. Most of them are lonely people, and they have just made a fortune, and they have nothing to worry about. If you have nothing to do, you get together to practice martial arts, or go out hunting, practice actual combat, and improve your food by the way, and you will naturally become friends when you come and go.
In the past few days, in addition to killing zombies, Wang Haoren has also been looking for various wholesale markets and warehouses along the way. Look at the rice, noodles, oil, salt, these things that are easy to spoil. Wang Haoren's materials for refining storage bags have been almost prepared, and he must look at these places in advance and understand them clearly, so as not to know where to find these materials when he gets them.
On this day, Wang Haoren came to the warehouse area of a grain and oil wholesale market. When I opened the door of a grain and oil warehouse, I unexpectedly saw a survivor of a family of three. Two adults and a child, each of them at this time had haggard faces, ragged clothes, and a foul smell on their bodies.
There was no shortage of food in the warehouse, but there was not much water, and they survived these months by drinking their own urine. Seeing such a situation, Wang Haoren sighed, took out a bottle of water from his backpack, and handed it to the three people. The reason why Wang Haoren will help them is because all three of them are alive. This is a very harmonious family, able to share weal and woe, and in such a difficult environment, it was able to persist in surviving.
The father handed the water to his wife, who shook her head weakly and handed the water to the child, who did not drink it, but gave it to the father again.
Wang Haoren looked at this scene, felt sad and wanted to cry, and said in a low voice: "Drink!" I'm done, I've got it here! ”
The three of them gave each other a few humilities, but the child took a small sip first, then the wife also took a small sip, and the husband only moistened his lips in the end.
At this moment, Wang Haoren suddenly understood how these three people survived, it was a belief in mutual support, and their love for each other. He couldn't bear to look at it, so he took out two bottles of water from his backpack and handed them to them.
The child's father gently handed the water back and said softly: "Thank you young man, now the water is too precious, we can't ask you too much, we are already dying people, we can get your help, let our family of three be able to get together for a while longer, we are very grateful." ”
Although the child was dumbfounded, looking at the water in Wang Haoren's hand, he didn't ask for it, he was very polite like his father.
Wang Haoren gently pushed the water back: "You guys drink it!" You can find water everywhere outside, drink it. ”
"Thank you!" At this time, the child's father did not refuse again, because he could see that the young man in front of him really wanted to give him water, and he also wanted to reunite himself with his family for even a while.
The child took a sip and handed it to his mother, who took only half a sip and then handed it to his father, who took only a small sip and carefully closed the cap. Wang Haoren didn't say much, because he knew what the choice of the family of three in front of him was. If they can really bring more water, maybe this family of three will continue to persevere, otherwise they will definitely not accept their kindness.
Wang Haoren knew by chatting with them that the family of three was surnamed Li. The husband's name is Li Youming, his wife's name is Li Liling, and the child's name is Li Xiaojun. The husband and wife are both university teachers and high-level cultural people, and they live in a community not far from here. On the day of the disaster, they had just returned from playing outside. Drive to this grain and oil market to buy things, and disaster strikes. Li Youming drove out of the zombie encirclement, fled to the warehouse area with few people, smashed the door lock of the warehouse and hid in. They relied on less than two boxes of mineral water in the car, a dozen pieces of sour vinegar in the warehouse, and water in the car's water tank, and persevered until now.
Wang Haoren said to them: "Come with me, I will take you out, and a survival base has been established outside the city." ”
"Really? It's great that you can take us out! Thank you! Thank you! Li Youming was very excited and thanked again and again.
Don't look at Wang Haoren, it seems that it is easy to hunt zombies, but in case he is close to a large number of zombies, he will have to kneel. The claws of zombies are not vegetarian, and a little bruising will immediately become infected. Although Wang Haoren wears armor, the zombie's claws can't be scratched, but it hurts! Swept away by the strange power of the zombies, not to mention hurting the muscles and bones, at least it will be bruised. The zombie has evolved to the present, and the speed is not slower than Wang Haoren, and it is even more flexible. If it weren't for the zombies who had no brains, they would only instinctively attack directly, and they wouldn't know how to bypass obstacles, Wang Haoren wouldn't know if he could deal with them. With this family of three who did not have the slightest ability to protect themselves, he had to be even more careful.
