53. The people live on food
In the evening, Luo Zhiyong greeted the sunset sun, sat on the square of the three canteens and leisurely ate bagged chicken legs, which he took from the school supermarket that he and Zhou Quan jointly recovered the day before yesterday, and he watched with some relief as the boys of the expedition carried the food and other supplies in the supermarket in an orderly manner.
Liu Haibo, Jiang Yutao and other boys from the four canteens were also in the team, each of them had red blood stains on their bodies, half of Liu Haibo's side face and hair were covered with blood, and the coagulation of blood made the hair on the back of his head messily glued together, which was very terrifying, but Liu Haibo's mood did not seem to be affected by this, and he also talked and laughed with his companions.
A few days ago, Liu Haibo and the others were just cowardly ordinary students who had never held a knife, and they were so frightened that they almost peed their pants when they saw zombies.
But now, they can bravely rush forward with kitchen knives, maces and other weapons to fight the zombies, and they are no longer afraid of the blood of the zombies.
Huge change, painful transformation
Luo Zhiyong felt that the comprehensive test content was too dangerous and cruel at first, but now that he thinks about it, the thoughtful decision is undoubtedly correct, only if ordinary survivors are no longer afraid of zombies, and even dare to fight with zombies, then this group and this survivor stronghold can have any hope of survival.
A safe stronghold is not a strong person who always protects a group of weak people, but a strong person who always leads a group of brave people to charge and fight!
What Zhou Quan is doing is to constantly hone the psychological quality and will of the survivors, reduce their fear and despair, arouse their courage and belief in charging forward, even if they are not in the stronghold, those survivors can protect themselves.
"I really lost to you, Boss Zhou·······"
Luo Zhiyong smiled helplessly and convincingly, he began to listen to Zhou Quan's voice and felt that the other party was a twenty-year-old college student, he was thirty-three years old, and he was still a little mustard when he called his thirteen-year-old brother boss, but after seeing Zhou Quan's unusually mature and cold heart and his long-term and correct decisions, Luo Zhiyong gradually let go of his inner mustard and sincerely obeyed the thoughtful arrangements and orders.
Luo Zhiyong saw that the expedition team had all safely entered the three canteens, he got up and threw the chicken bones in his hand into the garbage can, planning to withdraw to the three canteens as well.
At this moment, a deep voice came from behind.
"Luo Zhiyong, how is the dormitory and teaching building nearby?"
Luo Zhiyong was startled by this sudden voice, but he quickly adjusted his mood, turned around, and replied respectfully to the owner of the voice:
"Boss Zhou, I've finished the detection, there are 8 dormitories and 30 people alive in the boys' dormitory on the left, including 3 superpowers, and 11 dormitories and 35 people in the girls' dormitory on the right are surviving, 5 of them are superpowers, the teaching building... There were no survivors, and I also found that there were 8 survivors in the school's experimental field, 4 men and 4 women, who were supposed to be students from the agricultural biology side, and they... It's all supernatural. I informed all of the above survivors about the situation of the colony and the content of the test, and most of them agreed, and we will be able to receive them tomorrow morning. ”
"Eight of those agricultural biology students are all supernaturals?"
Zhou Quan slowly walked up to Luo Zhiyong and asked:
"Do you know their abilities and occupations?"
Luo Zhiyong replied:
"They're all non-combat-type abilities, they're hybrid supporters, and their skills are all related to plants and animals, for example, one of the girls has the ability to make hens lay more eggs, cows to send more milk, and a boy who can speed up the growth and maturation of some agricultural plants such as rice·····"
Luo Zhiyong's discovery was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, which hit Zhou Quan's mind straight away, making Zhou Quan, who had always been calm and indifferent, show excitement and ecstasy for the first time.
Why is it that after crossing from the backward era of fishing and hunting to the era of farming, the number of human beings and the scientific and technological civilization are growing explosively?
It is because when human beings have subdued plants such as wheat and rice, and tamed animals such as cattle and sheep, they can rely on their own labor and wisdom to obtain an abundant and relatively stable source of food, instead of hunting for one day and starving for three days.
It can be said that a stable and sustainable source of food is the foundation and necessary condition for the development of human civilization.
Since entering the end times, Zhou Quan and all the survivors have relied on pre-apocalyptic industrial bagged food to solve the problem of hunger, but that is not sustainable, the food in the supermarket will always run out one day, and the canned food with good sealing will expire, if you have been relying on the food produced in the old era, then human civilization will really die.
Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate good crops, develop animal husbandry, and build a complete food farm before the bagged food of the old era is sufficient, only in this way can we continue to supply the survivors with fresh food in the last days of the future when food is poor!
Vegetables, fruits, grains, meat, eggs, milk...
We need to cultivate them all!
"Luo Zhiyong! You call Zhao Jin and them all down, bring weapons and protective gear, you lead them to the test field, and you must bring back all the 8 students today! I'll go over and help you clear the way now, and I'll see you at the gate of the Farmland Experimental Building in half an hour! ”
Zhou Quan immediately gave an urgent order to Luo Zhiyong, and then he disappeared in place with a flicker.
Seeing Zhou Quan's anxious appearance, Luo Zhiyong also knew how important those survivors of agriculture were at this time, although it would be completely dark in two hours, but at this time he didn't care about safety, and hurriedly went up to organize Zhao Jin's group to set off.
"Boom T
One zombie after another on the road was ruthlessly torn apart by a black humanoid figure, their bodies were easily cut off by black claws like tender tofu, and there was no sense of blockade at all, and within a few seconds, the ground was full of zombie stumps, and the entire road was full of red blood rivers and gray-white flesh blocks, extremely terrifying and disgusting.
In order to open the way for Luo Zhiyong and them, and for the safety of the team when they went back, he did not walk on the roof of the building as before, but turned into a flesh mixer, swaggering and killing zombies on the road, he wanted to kill a safe path·······
At this time, on the edge of the experimental field, a group of students in white coats gathered around to discuss, each with different expressions, some with tears of reluctance, some with excited smiles, some with endless sorrow, and some with angry panting.
"Weiwei, it's okay, you remember to bring the 'little reed flower' in the circle in the past, we raised it ourselves, and she can still lay eggs to supplement your nutrition after she passes, haha·······"
A boy with glasses lay pale in the arms of a long-haired girl, weakly comforting the girl with tears in her eyes.
Xu Weiwei couldn't stop sobbing and whispered blame:
"Don't say anything like a last word! You'll pass the test tomorrow! We said we wanted to live together! Don't give up any hope of life! If you can't get to that safe base... Then I'll give up my place and stay with you..."
"! Vivi! ”
The frail boy lost his temper with his beloved girlfriend for the first time, he coughed for a while and said:
"Vivi! Don't be willful! That safe stronghold is your only hope, there is food, there is security, and there are beds, don't you keep complaining that it is uncomfortable to sleep in the fields, go to the stronghold, everything will be fine! I, Fan Pinghua, have no other wishes now, I hope you can live well, if you can't think about it yourself, then I will hate you······"
"Alright, alright!"
A big girl couldn't look at it, and said to Xu Weiwei:
"Weiwei, Pinghua just ran out of energy, and he didn't die, why are you so sad like a bitter drama! Although judging from the recovery speed of this body, it is estimated that it will not be better tomorrow morning, but it is not completely hopeless, let's all help Pinghua plead with the boss of the stronghold called Zhou Quan, whether you can be accommodating and don't test. ”
A bitter gourd-faced boy with a depressed and sad face denied:
"Guo Ting, don't think about it, didn't you hear the strange man named Luo Zhiyong say in the morning, the boss named Zhou Quan is a very ruthless and ruthless executioner, he insists that the man must kill two zombies alone, and only after proving his ability can he get in, and the stronghold is not to raise waste and lazy people."
When Guo Ting heard this, she was so angry that she kicked at the bitter gourd-faced boy and scolded:
"Takaragi! If you say frustrating words again, do you believe that the old lady is abolished!? Don't you see Fan Pinghua like this now? He used to over-deplete his energy in order to ripen wheat so that everyone could eat, and he hasn't recovered until now, let alone killing zombies like this, he may not be able to escape! Can we get him to take the test? It's a big deal that 7 of us knelt down together in front of that week and begged, I don't believe he's so hard-hearted! ”
Another more stable boy stood up and comforted Guo Ting, and said to everyone:
"Okay, don't worry, let's sort things out first, first of all, all of us must move to a safe and foody base to evacuate, this is everyone's goal, survival is the king! The second is that everyone must remember the test standards that Luo Zhiyong said in the morning, and do their best to prepare for tomorrow's interview, girls must remember the value of their abilities to the development of the base, and boys must adjust their physical condition and play their best when fighting tomorrow! In the end, Fan Pinghua's physical state will definitely not be able to pass tomorrow's test, and when all of us pass the test, let's kneel down and plead with Zhou Quan, if this doesn't work, alas, then there is no way······"
Speaking of this, everyone was silent, each of them remembered very clearly, Luo Zhiyong shook his head helplessly after learning about Fan Pinghua's situation in the morning, he told everyone: Zhou Quan is a very strong and domineering, and very principled person, he believes that boys' physical fitness and violent psychology are naturally suitable for fighting and hunting, in the apocalypse, men who want to get food and safety must take up arms to fight, men who have not seen corpses and blood are not worthy of enjoying the food that other men bring back desperately, If Fan Pinghua can't pass the test of killing zombies, he won't be able to enter the stronghold.
Finally, Luo Zhiyong also specially warned everyone not to try to kidnap Zhou Quan morally, and don't try to force Zhou Quan to give in, Zhou Quan is not only a powerful combat ability, but also a bloody butcher who kills without blinking, countless zombies died in his hands, and there are many humans who died in his hands, he hates it very much that people challenge and question his decisions, and the people who make Zhou Quan "very annoying" often have only one end:
Death...
Therefore, Xu Weiwei, Guo Ting, Gao Liangmu and others all imagined Zhou Quan as a cruel and terrifying murderer in their hearts, and they did not dare to force Zhou Quan to include Fan Pinghua in the stronghold through questioning, threats, etc., and could only plead for Fan Pinghua through the most humble and sincere way - kneeling.
As long as you can save your friend's life, what is this dignity?
