"Okay, listen carefully. If there's thunder over there, just hit the rocks." Xiao Jiu nodded, picked up the stick and walked towards a dark area in the cave, ready to dig up some earthworms.

As soon as he walked in, there were footsteps behind him. Xiao Jiu turned around and saw that it was the girl hiding the chewing gum just now.

Seeing Xiao Jiu staring at her, the girl was a little nervous. She held the wooden stick in front of her with both hands and said weakly: "I think... I want to help you."

As if he could see the girl's worry, Xiao Jiu smiled softly: "Haha, no, you can continue to stay. I will share one with you when I catch a fish."

"Okay..." After hearing Xiao Jiu's words, the girl turned and walked back, putting the wooden stick aside.

He picked up a few stones and threw them into the cave area. It was very dark there and the wood would be saved for fire later, so Xiao Jiu did not bring a torch in.

Xiao Jiu turned his head and happened to see the girl staring at him again. The peeping was discovered. The girl quickly turned her head back. Xiao Jiu said softly: "This is called alerting the snake."

After walking in, the place had become a lot darker and very humid. Xiao Jiu came to a pile of weeds behind a big rock. He used a wooden stick to clear away the weeds, then squatted down and picked up the wooden stick. Start digging.

About a few minutes later, Xiao Jiu held hands and walked out.

The girl looked at him, and Xiao Jiu nodded slightly.

When they walked to the fire, the fat man had already smashed the rocks into rubble, which were scattered on the ground. When he saw Xiao Jiu coming out, the fat man stood up and asked: "Did you dig it, brother?!"

Even if the fat man is afraid of insects, he still knows one thing, that is, earthworms can fish.

Xiao Jiu walked up to the fat man and opened his palms. Suddenly a dozen fat and flexible earthworms were swinging in his hands.

"!!!" Seeing this scene, the fat man jumped three times in fright and quickly retreated a few meters away, his face turned pale.

"Brother...Brother, just dig it up, you really don't need to show it to me."

Picking up a discarded food packaging bag, Xiao Jiu threw the earthworms in and put them aside.

When he came to the gravel, he squatted down and rummaged around, and found a piece of stone with a sharp edge. Then he stood up and walked out of the cave. Xiao Jiu walked toward the mountain next to him. Soon, he found a small tree.

It was about three meters high, as thick as three fingers put together, and the trunk was very smooth. He stepped forward and bent it, and Xiao Jiu selected this tree.

He squatted down and hit the tree trunk below with a stone. He was soon smashed beyond recognition. Then Xiao Jiu jumped up on the spot, grabbed the top of the tree trunk, and pressed down hard.

With a snap, the gap at the bottom of the tree trunk broke directly. He then continued to hit the top with a stone chip, and then trampled it with his feet. He made a fresh tree into a stick, about 2 meters long.

Back in the cave, Xiao Jiu threw the stick into the fire and let it burn the front part.

Those girls had already come to the front. After all, they were the only ones in the group who had extended a helping hand to Xiao Jiu. Among them, the short-haired girl just now asked in confusion: "Aren't there wooden sticks here? Why are you still struggling?" How about cutting one?"

When the fire was almost done, Xiao Jiu took out the wooden stick, rubbed it on the stone, and said softly: "Those are dry, easy to break, and very short, making them difficult to use."

"Use it? What is it used for?" asked a girl with hair in a ponytail. She and the girl with short hair are good friends.

"Fishing!" Xiao Jiu sharpened quickly, and soon the stick was sharpened by him. He stood up, picked up everything and walked out: "Keep the fire, don't let it go out."

Several girls next to him nodded at the same time.

"Brother! I'm convinced!" The fat man who was startled just now was not angry. Instead, he extended his thumb to Xiao Jiu: "You are really awesome."

Xiao Jiu chuckled, did not answer, and continued to walk out. After all, he was a little hungry.

After walking out of the cave, he grabbed the branches and walked down. A few minutes later, Xiao Jiu came to a river.

Breaking off a few leaves and putting them into his pocket, Xiao Jiu continued to walk forward.

When he came to a relatively open river, the water here was relatively deep. Xiao Jiu squatted down, tied the fishing line to the fishhook, then passed the leaves through the fishing line, and estimated how deep the water was. He used the fishing line to Continue through the hole in the leaf and tie the leaf to the fishing line in one place.

Then I took out the earthworm and hung it up. Since the pin has its own weight, there is no need for lead.

Throwing it into the river, Xiao Jiu tied the fishing line to a nearby branch and continued walking to other rivers.

After working hard for more than ten minutes, I finally threw down all the fishhooks, and now I just sit back and wait for the fish to take the bait.

Just as he was about to sit on the stone to rest, Xiao Jiu's eyes narrowed and he saw a pair of legs on the river bank below.

He stood up and looked around. It was far away from the entrance of the cave. Even if those people came down to catch fish, they would not come here. Xiao Jiu was a little confused. Is this one of the people in the cave? Accidentally washed away while catching fish?

Xiao Jiu did not carefully count how many people were in the cave every day. After all, everyone was unable to protect themselves and they were all too hungry to have any strength.

Forget it if he didn't see it, but now that he saw it, Xiao Jiu still walked towards those legs.

"That person is Uncle Wa, right?" Mouse sat on a small stool, holding his chin with both hands and said.

"Yeah." Uncle Wa, who had finished cleaning his gun, sat next to the mouse and replied.

"I went there to perform a mission to protect a certain boss in that small town. When I was covering his retreat, I was chased by the group of terrorists. Later I found out that their target was the boss I was protecting." The uncle rubbed his legs with his hands when a bullet hit his calf.

"How much will the boss give you if you protect him?" Xiaoyin turned around and looked at Uncle Wa.

"Two million US dollars." Uncle Wa replied solemnly.

"Wow!" Xiaoyin said in surprise: "You can't tell, Uncle Wa, you must be very rich, right?"

Xiao Jiu, who was leaning on the bedside, said with a smile: "Haha, what's the use of money now? You can't buy anything. There are zombies everywhere. Medicines and bullets are the hard currency."

"Xiao Xiao is right." Uncle Wa rarely spoke more today. He continued: "We don't have money now, and we didn't have money at that time. Many times we have money to make, but we have no life to spend it." , if Xiao Xiao hadn’t gone there to put the fishhook, I’m afraid I would have died there long ago.”

"What about the boss you protect? Why does Brother Xiao only see you?" Xiaoyin asked doubtfully.

"Dead." Uncle Wa said two words concisely.

"That group of terrorists, there are almost three hundred people. Our team only has ten people in total. We sacrificed eight teammates before we desperately left the town with the protection target." Uncle Wa said in a deep voice. In that mission, he lost Thinking about all his teammates now, it still makes him regretful. It would have been better if he had not accepted this task at that time...
