Chapter 42 The Food Problem

Three days later. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Watching the dark night outside the cave gradually glow with milky white morning light, Wei Hong and the others hiding in the cave had their tense hearts completely relaxed again, this was the third night they had spent in the cave, although after nightfall, the low and tyrannical roars outside the cave came and went, but what was extremely surprising was that in these three terrifying nights, the zombie tide did not even launch an attack on the cave as if they had not discovered them at all.

Of course, the reason may be that every night, the entrance of the cave will be sealed by them with huge rocks, and until dawn comes, everyone will work together to remove the huge rocks, but in any case, everything in front of them makes everyone hiding in the cave see the hope of survival.

The atmosphere of panic in the cave gradually became lively, and many people had a little smile on their faces.

However, Wei Hong, Qin Nan and a few other people's brows are still tense, as soon as the sky is bright in the past two days, Qin Nan will take a team of people out to look for food, but the food obtained when they return before night is a drop in the bucket compared to everyone's daily consumption.

Even though everyone turned in their own food, and the daily food distribution was limited to the point where they could only maintain vital signs, there was still not much food in the cave.

Therefore, for everyone, in addition to the zombie tide that can occur at any time at night, food has become an urgent thing that must be solved at present.

However, after two days of exploring the surrounding environment and consulting with some survivors who were familiar with the place, the gloomy color on Wei Hong's face became thicker and thicker.

Because near this cave, there are still three camps, the smallest of which is only about a hundred people, but the largest is nearly a thousand people, and more importantly, the survivors in those three camps, nearly half of the people, their strength is hovering around the human level, compared to 90% of Wei Hong's team are powerless old and young women and children, that is more than a hundred times stronger.

Therefore, when Qin Nan led the team to look for food in the past two days, it was difficult to have any decent harvest in the face of the overwhelming food seekers around him, but he was often squeezed and troubled by those people.

Although Qin Nan was angry in her heart, because the strength of the team she led was too weak, and there were relatively few people, it was difficult to compete with those people, so she could only swallow this grievance into her stomach.

This also led to discontent in the ranks, and even two survivors who had just reached the initial strength of the human rank quietly absconded yesterday and took refuge in those camps.

This really caught Wei Hong off guard, because of their rebellion, they must be watching to see that the matter of this cave will be exposed, although I don't know when the leaders of those camps will lead the team to rob this cave, but how important it is to have a camp that will not be attacked by a wave of zombies at night, it must be that no one is willing to let it go easily.

Therefore, Wei Hong was very sure in his heart that if he didn't have enough strength to deter those people, it would not be a few days before someone would come to force the palace to force him to give up this residence.

Fortunately, after these few days of cultivation, the white tiger's injuries have recovered a lot, although the combat effectiveness has still not recovered to the peak, but with Ying Susu carefully treating it on the side, with its current recovery speed, it should be able to heal completely in less than a week.

At that time, with the deterrence of the white tiger, as long as the people in those camps do not have particularly powerful characters, it must be more than enough to defend this cave, so it is not difficult to solve the cave problem, but ......

Food!

Yes, the food problem is really a headache for Wei Hong.

If there is not enough food, even if there is a white tiger to intimidate the Quartet and shock those with evil intentions, but the people in the cave will fall apart due to hunger, and when the time comes, there will be no need for those people to come and rob it, and this refuge of Wei Hong will also fall apart.

So it's imperative that the food problem be solved no matter what.

But......

Close to Qin Nan to lead the team to search for food, it is obviously not a long-term solution, and in this severe cold, the remaining food outside will only become less and less, even in the south of the cave, the Ten Thousand Burial Forest, which is only fifty or sixty kilometers away from here, has not been too seriously polluted, and there are still many living creatures, but the forest is too dangerous, with Qin Nan's strength, they can't catch any decent prey at all, but they will face a lot of unimaginable dangers.

Of course, more importantly, there are now about 300 people in the cave, and they can't sustain the livelihood of so many people just by hunting.

However, what made Wei Hong feel a little relieved was that although the survivors in the cave were all hungry, there was no chaos at present, but many old women seemed to be very clear about the situation in front of them, and consciously gave up the food distributed every day, and went out on their own to find some grassroots and other food that could satisfy their hunger as soon as dawn, which really moved Wei Hong.

But after all, those old women are only a small part, most of them are still struggling to survive on the meager food distributed every day, if the only remaining food in the cave is completely exhausted, I am afraid that civil strife will inevitably break out, so Wei Hong has been thinking about the food problem for the past two days.

Ultimately......

Wei Hong got only one answer, if he wanted to feed this group of people, then he had to take a risk to go to Zhongyu City.

Zhongyucheng is located in the middle of Kunshan County, in the northeast of the cave, about two or three hundred kilometers away from here, originally there were more than 500,000 people living in the city, it is the most populous city in Kunshan County, although because of the outbreak of the zombie tide, it has now become a hard-hit area, but because the zombies like darkness, so the city has not suffered too serious damage, and the zombies only suck the qi of yin and yang, so Wei Hongsi thought about it, and unconsciously thought of the granary in the city.

He believed that many people's eyes had already been fixed on the granary in the city, but Zhongyu City was full of zombies, and its danger level was not comparable to that in the wild, so there should not be many people who dared to go to Zhongyu City to steal grain at present.

But after a while, when there is no food to be found, I am afraid that no matter how dangerous Zhongyu City is, people who go to the city to find food will also flock to it, and the competitive pressure is far greater than now, so this kind of thing must be sooner rather than later.

Thinking of this, Wei Hong's fists couldn't help but clench tightly, and he made a decision in his heart......
