Pull into a platform inside the dam, turn around and close the rusted iron door again. Xu Si didn't know where to find a chain lock for a bicycle, and locked the iron door after three or two rounds.

After the door was locked, Yao Mei and He Xiaomei checked the armored car separately to make sure that the doors were locked, and then followed Cheng Sen and them, and walked towards the dam duty room through a narrow stone bridge. Only the right side of the stone bridge has a handrail welded with steel pipes, and when you look down, you can see the bottomless lake under your feet. After crossing the stone bridge, you will come to the gate of the dam. Four thick gates tightly block the lake on the side of the dam. A small three-storey building was built right next to the gate. Six reinforced concrete pillars are firmly nailed to the bottom of the water, supporting the small building.

Xiangshang climbed the staircase without handrails, and soon went up to the third floor. There are only two rooms on the third floor, one of which is the duty room. On the newsstand near the gate, a number of newspapers and books are neatly sandwiched. There are two rectangular tables in the room, with a glass pressed on the top and photographs and posters underneath. There is a ceramic teacup on the corner of the table, and the tea leaves inside have grown white hairs and are moldy. The chair fell to the floor, the drawers open. The locks on the drawers, along with a bunch of keys, sit on the table.

In the middle of the room was an iron coal stove, and a long white iron chimney reached through the wall. I opened the window in the house and faced the wide lake. The deep thatch around was swaying in the wind. The smell of water on the lake blew into the house, which made Cheng Sen and the others shiver together. The temperature is getting lower and lower, and looking at the foggy sky, it makes people feel a chill coming to their hearts.

Telling Yao Mei and He Xiaomei to clean up this room, Cheng Sen turned around and walked towards the next room. Push open the wooden door of the room, and there are two ** silk beds inside. There was also an iron coal stove between the two beds, and two pairs of plastic slippers were placed next to the bed, which were already covered with dust. Under the bed, there is a red plastic basin with a diameter of one meter, plus an iron bucket. Xu Si bent down and rummaged under the bed and found two snakeskin bags of coke. This carbon burns up, and the smoke is less than the fire. It is an excellent heating material in winter.

Open the windows to let in the air. It took a long time for the musty smell to dissipate. I touched the sheets on the wire bed, and it was quite dry. Cheng Sen said to Xu Si and Wu Gun: "Let the two women sleep in this room at night, we will be next door." ”

"The sheets are all dusty, can they sleep?" Xu Si lifted the sheet and shook it vigorously, and a choking dust suddenly floated in the air. He threw the sheets back on the bed and said to Cheng Sen with a frown.

"There are two tarpaulins in the car, just take one and cut it. By the way, bring some food up, there is a stove here, we can make a hot meal. Cheng Sen took out a cigarette and lit it, and then said to Wu Gun.

Wu Gun quickly ran downstairs and came to the platform in front of the iron gate of the dam. I opened the door and pulled out a dark green tarpaulin, pulled out a dagger from the scabbard pinned to my military boots, and slashed it in two. I also took some canned food, rice and a few large bottles of mineral water. Throwing his head into the rain cloth and wrapping it, Zuihou cautiously stood at the iron door and carefully observed a cigarette to make sure that no one or anything else was nearby, and then turned back to the upper floor.

"Ah, there's a basin, it's been a long time since I've taken a bath. Sister Yao, let's boil some boiling water and wash it. They don't care about men, if we women don't pay attention to hygiene, we will get gynecological diseases. He Xiaomei found the basin under the bed, and pulled Yao Mei and said with some excitement. The last time she took a bath, she remembered, was before the outbreak of the virus. Forget it, this hasn't been washed for almost two months. There was no such condition before, so everyone didn't have to wash. Now looking at the plastic basin and coal stove in front of me, the idea of taking a bath suddenly popped up.

"Okay~ I haven't taken a shower for a long time. Let's talk to Brother Cheng? When I didn't think about it, Yao Mei didn't feel that there was anything wrong. Now that the idea of taking a bath is up, the little girl suddenly feels itchy everywhere all over her body. Stretched out his hand and poked in from the collar, and said to He Xiaomei while scratching.

"Go and say, I'll tidy up the house. Make room for us to take a shower. He Xiaomei picked up a broom and swept around the house.

"Shower gel, it's impossible. If you want to wash it, you can only use soap. Also, boil some more water, and we'll wash it too! Yaomei nodded and was about to go out to find Cheng Sen, but Cheng Sen's voice came from outside the door. As he spoke, a piece of Shujia was thrown in.

"Xu Si, you go and help carry water. By the way, call the old gun and go with you. After Cheng Sen threw the soap to Yao Mei, he held the flue with both hands on the guardrail on the aisle.

"What about you?" Xu Si was holding the apple and was a little reluctant to move.

"I'll rest for a while, hurry up. Take a bath, then eat. Cheng Sen touched the beard that was more than an inch long on his chin and glared at Xu Si.

Put the apple back in the house, and told a few words not to run around, regardless of whether the kitten understood it or not, Xu Si walked downstairs with two iron buckets. When he came to the stone bridge, he grabbed the guardrail with one hand and the iron bucket in the other, and scooped up the water half-hanging.

Bringing the water upstairs, Cheng Sen had already lit a fire to the coal stove. casually threw a dirty iron kettle to Xu Sidao: "Wash it and use this to boil water." ”

"Nima~" Xu Si looked at the kettle in front of him, gritted his teeth and raised his middle finger at Cheng Sen.

"Hehe, I'll go!" Wu Gun put the rain cloth on the table and said to Cheng Sen and Xu Si with a smile.

"It's still an old gun~" Xu Si bent down to hold the apple, rubbed the hair on the kitten's head and said.

"But you have to do the work of carrying water alone~" Wu Gun walked out of the door with a kettle, and suddenly leaned back and said to Xu Si!

"Damn, there's not a good bird!" Xu Si thought about it, and the bath water of these five people was explained to him. Gritting his teeth, he stretched out the middle fingers of both hands together, pointed at Cheng Sen with one finger, and said loudly at Wu Gun with the other.

Soon, as the coke burned in the furnace, the temperature in the room gradually increased. After closing the window, Cheng Sen moved a chair and leaned against the stove and smoked comfortably. He decided that in the future, if he was stationed, he would have to get one of these stoves in his room.
