Chapter 120: The Five Awakened Ones
The first thing Xie Tian did at the meeting was to formulate the employment needs of each position, and if the cooking work was concentrated, there must be enough personnel to engage in the cooking work on a regular basis, and as for how many people were needed to be responsible for the cooking, Xie Tian could not handle it well.
Liu Mu gave an opinion and said: "The ratio of cooks to soldiers in the army is 1:80, so if we calculate it, we have 2,000 people, and we need about 25 cooks. ”
Xie Tian nodded and said, "25 is acceptable, so let's tentatively set 25." Immediately, Xie Tian asked Li Xiaohe: "How many people were in charge of cooking before?" ”
Li Xiaohe flipped through his record book and said, "There are 9 people." ”
Xie Tian nodded and said, "Then you go and recruit 16 more survivors." ”
Lao Zheng, who has been a chef, said: "Thank God, how are you going to arrange three meals a day?" At present, only rice is inexhaustible, and other materials are still relatively scarce. ”
Xie Tian hesitated for a moment and said, "Lao Zheng, you are a professional, what do you think?" ”
Lao Zheng said: "Breakfast can be rationed with rice porridge and cakes, for lunch, we have a lot of dry goods, we can make a big pot of dishes, supply according to the portion, and then make sure that each person can eat about 30 grams of meat for lunch, otherwise, just eat rice, it won't take long to even have the strength to work, as for dinner, you can feel free, a little big pot of dishes, a little rice porridge or noodle soup is enough." ”
Xie Tian nodded and said: "The problem of meat should indeed be given, according to the calculation of 30 grams per person, the daily consumption is about 60 kilograms, this consumption rate can still be afforded, then in this case, we only need to go to the city for a period of time in the future to find some meat materials." ”
Song Hui asked, "Xiao Xie, how are you going to expand the army?" If these people are directly recruited into the army and equipped with weapons, will it be difficult to manage? ”
Xie Tian said with a smile: "I've thought about this, first recruit them in the form of reserves, let them participate in training, and occasionally practice shooting, but the firearms when practicing shooting should be managed in a unified manner, and they should be out of the warehouse when they are used, and they can also be put into the warehouse immediately after they are used up, and they can also be involved in the regular guards, but by our veterans, there shouldn't be any big problems, even if something goes wrong, you can also control the situation well." ”
"It's good to pay attention to this." Liu Mu nodded approvingly: "If they are mixed into the veteran team, and the veterans will manage and supervise them, it will divide their strength." ”
"There are other jobs." Xie Tian said: "At present, we have enough electric welding equipment, there is still a large amount of equipment left in the power plant, at present, our defense is still not perfect, since there are more than 1,000 laborers, then simply completely reinforce the outermost wall, reinforced with cement and steel, if more than 1,000 people work together, I believe it will not take long to finish." ”
"Are you going to carry food tomorrow?" Lao Cheng asked.
"Transport." Xie Tian nodded and said, "The loose grain in the grain storage tank of the Xinyu Grain Depot is not easy to get, but the other bagged grain must be transported back as soon as possible, so as not to be found by others and rob our business." ”
That night, Xie Tian took a few male laborers to clean up the canteen, the electrical equipment in the back kitchen is still complete, and new power generation equipment has been added, the problem of electricity can be easily solved, Lao Zheng used to be a chef, Xie Tian transferred him out of the monitoring room, specifically responsible for the cooking work of the entire safety zone, Lao Zheng also agreed very happily, immediately debugging and cleaning up the equipment.
Everyone else has begun to rest, but the canteen is busy in full swing, thinking that from today onwards, the safe zone can easily afford the food of two thousand people, Xie Tian's heart unconsciously swelled with a sense of pride, it seems that no matter when, the unity between people is the most powerful force, the more sinister the conditions, the more necessary it is to concentrate all the forces that can be concentrated, and now this family business, almost all of them are spelled out all the way, from Yangcheng to Nanling and then here, the team is gradually developing, and it has become more and more powerful.
Lao Zheng determined that the meal would be officially served tomorrow morning, Xie Tian left the canteen with confidence, outside the canteen, to Xie Tian's surprise, it was Du Yuewei's waiting, as soon as Xie Tian came out, Du Yuewei stepped forward with some twists, and after a while, Xie Tian thought she wanted to ask herself about how to evolve, but she didn't think that Du Yuewei opened her mouth, but it was a thank you.
Xie Tian was a little confused by her thank you, and asked puzzledly, "Why did you suddenly come to thank me?" ”
Du Yuewei pursed her lips and said, "Thank you for everything you have done here, you respect everyone, and manage this place in an orderly manner, everyone has a stable life, except for the zombies outside, there is not much difference between this place and the normal society before." ”
Xie Tian smiled slightly, and said: "Doing this is not only for the survivors, but also for myself, now the situation outside has become more and more severe, and the security zone managed by the Provisional Military Commission is too strict, I can only find a way to open up a relatively more comfortable shelter by myself." ”
Du Yuewei nodded and said, "You have done a good job, our life here has begun to stabilize, and today we have received so much food, everyone is very happy, there is no need to go out and risk again." ”
"Wrong." Xie Tian smacked his lips and said: "The previous broadcast said that the zombies have an overall migration action, and we came from Yangcheng all the way, and we found that the strength of the zombies is also increasing along the way, maybe the zombies in the south have now begun to move north, and they are only temporarily safe to stay here, and even I have no confidence in how long it can be supported." ”
Du Yuewei asked in surprise: "Do you still want to go north?" ”
Xie Tian said with a melancholy face: "My family is in Yanjing, and now I have lost contact, and I have no way of knowing if I am still alive, so I always have to take a look at Yanjing before I can die, but at present, I am not sure when it is the right time to leave." ”
Du Yuewei asked, "Then are you going to take all the soldiers away?" Or maybe bring so many survivors with you? ”
"Impossible." Xie Tian said lightly: "With so many people on the road, it is impossible to coordinate and manage at all, and many people are eager for comfort, and now it is not easy to settle down, it is not appropriate to force them to embark on a dangerous road again, I would like to organize a team of awakened people, in this way, everyone has a certain strength, and it will be more convenient to act together." ”
"Count me in." Du Yuewei said.
"How?" Xie Tian frowned and asked, "Are you still ready to go out on adventures?" ”
"I think it's stronger." Du Yuewei looked at Xie Tian with a firm gaze and said, "I believe that if I follow you, I can realize this wish." ”
Xie Tian smiled dumbly, and then, Xie Tian patted Du Yuewei's shoulder and said, "Go, you come with me." ”
Du Yuewei didn't know where Xie Tian was going to take her, but she still followed behind Xie Tian, Xie Tian took her to his conference room in the general control building, and then, Xie Tian called Zhao Ziye, Xie Xiaofei and A Luo.
Five people, all of them are awakened, except for themselves and Zhao Ziye, who are fully awakened and have an ability, the other three are the most ordinary awakened people, just unilateral awakening, in this, they don't know much about each other, except for Ah Luo was seriously injured by a zombie last time but did not die, so that others know the identity of his awakened person, Du Yuewei, Xie Xiaofei and Zhao Ziye's awakening is relatively undisclosed.
The five of them sat together, and Xie Tian said straight to the point: "You are all awakened like me, and I asked everyone to come over to meet today, more because I want to talk to you." ”
Xie Xiaofei didn't expect that even Zhao Ziye was an awakened person, he was surprised for a long time, and said with a smile: "I thought that only me and Brother Xie were in the safe zone, and A Luo was the awakened person." ”
Du Yuewei smiled a little blushing and said: "I used to think that only I was lucky in the world, and I could suddenly become stronger, but later I learned that in fact, I am just the tip of the iceberg, and there are many people who are stronger than me." ”
Xie Tian said lightly, "The three of you are the most ordinary awakened people, Xiaofei is a power type, Yue Wei is an agile type, and A Luo is a power type, each with its own strengths, I think if you can communicate more and cooperate more, the effect of combining together in the future will be even greater." ”
Xie Xiaofei said with some excitement: "Brother Xie, anyway, I have followed you all the way, I will do whatever you ask me to do." ”
Immediately, Xie Tian took out three crystals from his pocket, handed them to the three of them, and said, "These three crystals contain a kind of energy in their bodies, haven't you always been curious about how to evolve?" I found the breakthrough here, but I don't know if it will work for you, or how effective it will be. ”
Except for Xie Xiaofei, who had obtained a crystal from Xie Tian, the other two took the crystal with some curiosity, and Zhao Ziye on the side was also a little curious about it, but he didn't say it.
Xie Xiaofei opened his mouth and said: "Brother Xie, the one you gave me last time still has energy, but that energy is very small, and I always feel that the actual effect is not very large." ”
Xie Tian smiled and said, "When I first awakened, I could absorb such a crystal in about two to three days, which may also have something to do with the different degrees of evolution between the two of us." ”
"How do you use this thing?" Du Yuewei asked curiously.
Xie Tian explained: "Those of you who are not very sensitive to crystals must hold it in the palm of your hand, and then feel the energy contained in it with your heart, so that you can absorb the energy in it into your body, but it depends on you how effective it is." ”
"I'll try." Du Yuewei hurriedly held the crystal in her hand, then closed her eyes, and Ah Luo on the side also hurriedly followed Du Yuewei's example and tried it.
After a while, Du Yuewei opened her eyes and said: "It's strange, I can indeed feel that there is an energy in it, and at the same time, I can also feel that the energy it emits is inhaled into my body, but this energy is indeed as Xiaofei said, it is very small, just a sense of comfort, but it doesn't seem to have much effect." ”
Xie Tian handed Du Yuewei another one and said, "You try it with both hands at the same time." ”
Du Yuewei nodded, took another crystal, clenched one with each hand, and after a while, said: "It's better, it's better, it's like a drop of water per second at the beginning of the faucet, and now it's two drops of water a second, for hungry people, it seems to have a bit of a drop in the bucket." ”
Ah Luo also said at this time: "It's true, I feel that the effect is very small. ”
Xie Tian sighed and said: "This should be because the level of your awakening is too low, in addition to the enhancement of the body, you are not sensitive enough to the energy in this crystallized body, but it is better than nothing, this is also the only evolutionary channel I have found so far, and I don't know if ordinary awakened people can still be strengthened, you bring the crystallization back, if you finish absorbing it, you can come to me again." ”
Du Yuewei sighed and said, "This crystal gives me the feeling that it is a high-energy battery, and I am just a small light bulb, I don't know when I will be able to absorb the energy in it." ”
"Hold on." Xie Tian shook his head and said, "Maybe my luck is better than yours, but I think that since you have awakened, then I believe that there will naturally be room for improvement." ”
"Hmm." Du Yuewei nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll try my best." ”
Xie Tian said: "The root cause of zombie evolution and our awakening is the zombie virus, we are the same as the evolution of zombies, what is really mutating in the body is the zombie virus rather than our own body tissue, so in my thoughts, there must be other channels for evolution." ”
"Increase the amount of zombie virus in your own body?" Xie Xiaofei blurted out, "Is this reliable?" Anyway, we are all immune to the zombie virus, and since you said that the zombie virus plays a vital role for us, then try to increase the amount of virus in the body, this effect will be more obvious, right? ”
Xie Tian said with some embarrassment: "This, I guess it's not very easy to use, when I went out to look for food, I was scratched by zombies all over my body, according to what you said, then so many zombie viruses have been added to my body at once, wouldn't my strength have to increase dramatically?" ”
"Do you have any special feelings?" Xie Xiaofei hurriedly asked.
"Nope." Xie Tian shrugged his shoulders, pointed at Arlo, and said, "You ask Arlo, he was more seriously injured by zombies before. ”
Arlo smiled bitterly and said, "My body hasn't fully recovered yet."
"Is it okay to eat zombie meat?" Xie Xiaofei suddenly looked at Xie Tian and asked.
Xie Tian nodded and said, "I think it's okay, you can try it." ”
"Still don't want it" Xie Xiaofei hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Zombies used to be human, it's too disgusting, I'd rather not evolve than eat zombie meat." ”
Xie Tian knew in his heart that zombies could evolve rapidly by eating the brain stem and pituitary gland of zombies, and people might be able to evolve if they ate it, but Xie Tian never dared to think about it, after all, it was too disgusting, and it was not ordinary disgusting, he was currently relying on crystals, and the speed of evolution had slowed down significantly, and Xie Tian, like them, was eager to find a new way of evolution.
