"Well, ......, have you really decided"? Ling Tao opened his mouth, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and asked. Give the power of the literature network

"Yes, we have all decided, we will stay here and not leave, our ancestors have lived here for generations, where can we go without here? Here is our ancestral hall, this is our roots, even if we go elsewhere, it may not be better than here, if you accidentally die outside, you don't even have a chance to return to your roots, here, it's a good ......", Zhou Taigong nodded and replied.

Seriously, Ling Tao really doesn't understand the mentality of the villagers, life is already so difficult, but they still pay attention to what 'fallen leaves return to their roots' for fear of dying outside, according to the people in the city, there is probably no discomfort in changing to a new environment every month, but after all, he didn't grow up in the countryside, and he can't express his opinions on this.

"Okay, I see, but what are you going to do next? You also know that the situation is too public, in the face of increasingly powerful mutant creatures, living here is not a way after all", Ling Tao nodded and said in a deep voice.

"I've discussed this with the villagers, well, Zhou Lin They have some weapons in their hands, for the time being, it's enough to protect the safety here, in the case of not encountering the danger like yesterday, oh, I forgot to tell Brother Ling, Zhou Lin and they also decided to stay and not leave, well, they have received regular combat training, and will stay to train the villagers, and secondly, I decided to let the villagers move to live underground, which is also safer", Zhou Taigong said.

"Mr. Ling. I'm sorry, we can't go with you, please understand. After all, this is our home, our roots, and we can't abandon this place", Zhou Lin said with some embarrassment on the side.

Ling Tao fully understood, nodded and said, "I understand, it's okay for you to stay here, and use your skills to protect the safety of the villagers."

Said here. Ling Tao turned to look at Zhou Taigong again and said dumbly: "What does it mean to move to live underground?"

"Hehe, that is. Digging underground to open up living space and move the villagers underground, so that it can also be safer. However, the ground also needs to be fortified and cannot be discarded, after all, the ground is where people live, and they just take refuge underground when danger comes," Zhou explained.

Ling Tao understood after a little thought, digging a space underground, which could store food and other materials, in case of danger. You can also take refuge underground, and when the time comes, you just need to guard the entrance or even block it, and then come out when the crisis has passed. It's also a good idea.

Thinking of this, Ling Tao looked at Zhou Taigong and said, "Regarding this, Taigong, let me give you some advice, that is, to dig an underground shelter. Try to dig in hard soil or simply in a rocky mountain, after all, in a place of soft soil. There are also mutated creatures underground, such as earthworms and ants, and if you use hard soil or rocky mountains, you can minimize such problems."

This is also what Ling Tao thought of when he thought of digging a puddle in the valley where the gorillas lived, there were mutated creatures on the ground, and there were also underground, and there was no place to live, so he could only avoid it as much as possible.

"Well, thank you Brother Ling for reminding me, we know, by the way, what are your plans next, Brother Ling"? Zhou Taigong nodded and asked instead.

"Me, I'm going to go to the provincial capital next, I got the news, my parents are also there, I'm going to find them", Ling Tao replied, thinking about his parents, Ling Tao's mood suddenly became anxious again, after leaving them for so long, I don't know what my parents have become now, whether it will be dangerous, whether it will be bad or something.

"That's it, when are you leaving, Brother Ling?" Zhou Taigong asked a little reluctantly, one was worried about Ling Tao's safety, and the other was because of Ling Tao's force, his existence was almost the backbone of Zhoujia Village in some aspects, and it was reasonable not to want him to leave.

"This time I originally wanted the villagers to go together, since everyone is not leaving, then I will leave as soon as possible, well, I will leave later", Ling Tao thought for a while and said.

"Okay, but Mr. Ling, can you leave again tomorrow morning?" Mrs. Zhou's old face looked at Ling Tao and asked with a little expectation.

Seeing the other party's expression, although Ling Tao really wanted to leave now, since it had been delayed for so long, he didn't care about the time of the day, so he nodded and agreed.

It's not all happy, there is no doubt that the villagers of Zhoujia Village will have to endure countless survival tests if they stay here, Ling Tao will also go to the provincial capital to find his parents, the future is unknown, in short, living in such a world, no one knows what direction their fate will go.

Then there was busyness, the villagers were busy reinforcing the fence and the school wall, digging the trench deep and wide, inserting spikes in the ground, etc., and digging underground shelters.

This school, once a hope elementary school, was built on a vacant lot, but after all, this is a mountainous area, and the ground is one or two meters deep where there are stones, and when it was first built, it was mechanically built, and now the villagers want to dig a shelter here, and everyone can predict how much effort it will take, but in order to survive, no matter how difficult it is, they have to do it.

Ling Tao was not idle, helping the villagers dig underground shelters, with his strength, a hoe went down, did not break a large piece of stone, but cut off the hoe, and finally the villagers found an arm-thick steel drill, Ling Tao avoided destroying the tools.

The progress is not slow, after all, the villagers used to be good at coolies, and now their physical fitness has improved, and by the time it gets dark, they have dug only five or six meters deep underground space, but it is not much.

Among them, at Ling Tao's suggestion, the rat king who was originally killed by him only took its fur, and other things such as flesh and bones were discarded, Ling Tao did not say the reason, but the villagers followed suit.

Tens of thousands of people are full of treasures, but after being absorbed by Ling Tao, I am afraid that there is no effect, it is Ling Tao who let the villagers discard it, it is worth mentioning that Zhou Mancang's red hand is really not covered, and there is a red source pearl in the head of the rat king, but it was taken away by him.

Ling Tao also had no intention of grabbing resources with the villagers, so he didn't care about this thing, after all, they lived here and needed too many things.

When night fell, Ling Tao fell asleep, but there were more than a dozen people in the village where the blacksmith forged weapons without rest, and the sound of clanging was particularly clear in the night.

In the past, when it was not yet dawn, Ling Tao suddenly opened his eyes, and in the darkness he frowned and listened carefully, and immediately, he opened the door and looked at the other side of the mountain, his brows furrowed even deeper.

Behind Zhoujia Village, there is a mountain forest, the villagers have introduced, the back of the mountain is still a mountain, stretching for several kilometers, and then the other side does not know what the place is, the villagers will not be idle and have nothing to run to the side of the mountain to check.

At this time, the direction that Ling Tao looked at was the side of the mountain, the sky was not yet bright, and he couldn't look at things in a daze, but Ling Tao vaguely felt that there was a crisis approaching on the other side of the mountain.

Standing outside the door, Ling Tao stood for half an hour, originally thinking that he was delusional, but faintly, he seemed to hear an angry roar, very violent.

"What the hell is going on"? Ling Tao frowned and said to himself, wanting to take a look, but it was not realistic at all.

Just as he was undecided, there was a crisp snap, and in his room, a water cup fell on the ground and shattered, standing on the ground, he could feel the ground shaking slightly.

"It's not good, something must happen......", Ling Tao's face changed and he muttered to himself, and quickly entered the house, put on his armor, pinned the flowing water sword to his waist, and held the anti-aircraft machine gun in his hand, and came to the outside of the house again to look at the side of the mountain.

However, when Ling Tao was ready, he found that the other villagers seemed to feel the danger approaching, and they all woke up, took out their weapons and came outside, looking at the other side of the mountain, whispering one by one, guessing what was going on on the other side of the mountain.

As time passed, the ground shook more and more violently, and the roar became clearer, not from a single thing, but from two voices, as if two beasts were fighting.

I don't know why, hearing one of the voices, Ling Tao had a faint sense of familiarity.

"Mr. Ling, what do you think"? Zhou Taigong immediately found Ling Tao and asked.

"The situation is unknown, so, Taigong, you let the children, the old and the women, and the injured people in the village find a place to hide, preferably in the cellar, as soon as possible," Ling Tao said in a deep voice.

"Okay", Mrs. Zhou replied, and went to arrange, at this time, in the face of unknown threats, it is better to be careful.

As time passed, the sky became brighter, and the sun appeared in the sky, but the ground shook more and more, and the roar became clearer, and at the same time, two incomparable dangerous auras were gradually approaching in this direction, and Rao is Ling Tao felt the incomparable dangerous aura.

"What the hell is it", Ling Tao said to himself as he looked at the mountain and said to himself.

However, looking at the dazed villagers around him, Ling Tao gritted his teeth and said loudly, "You all stay here."

After speaking, Ling Tao was alone and quickly rushed towards the direction of the back mountain, but before he could get close to the nearest mountain of about a kilometer, with a snort, a thick tree trunk flew over from the third side ....... (To be continued)
