Li Ke spent a month raising the height of his wall to five meters and its thickness to nearly two meters. Not only was monitoring equipment with no blind spots installed on the wall, but it was also connected to the power grid.
The temperature outside was close to fifty degrees at noon, and the water level in the nearby river had dropped to its lowest point.
Li Ke would warm up on the ground for half an hour from 5:30 to 7:30 every morning, practice various shooting techniques for an hour and a half, and then exercise for another two hours from 4 to 6 p.m. Although she chose a relatively late afternoon time, after all the exercise, she felt like she had experienced a refreshing sauna bath.
After exercising, she would climb up the wall and stand on the observation deck that was specially raised two meters to observe what was happening in the distance.
Li Ke didn't know what changes would occur to the human body's functions after living completely underground, but she knew that although humans who had been living on the ground would be tortured by high temperatures, in the later stages, the longer people lived, the more their body's resistance to cold and heat would be greatly improved.
Although Li Ke has a comfortable underground castle, she is unwilling to give up any opportunity to improve her physical fitness, so she will continue to do necessary ground exercises.
The temperature will continue to rise. Under this high temperature, water resources will evaporate and be lost quickly, and human survival will once again face severe tests.
However, Li Ke observed that in the town below, there were fewer and fewer people moving around on the ground. Because of the doomsday forecast, most of the informed and capable shelters had accelerated the collection of various resources and the construction of ground defense projects as winter was about to pass.
Extremely hot weather has arrived, and humans have begun to turn to underground life in large numbers. This is also a helpless solution. Li Ke saw that solar panels have been built on the town below, and it seems that people's lives have improved a lot.
At the current temperature, the solar panels can still work for a while, but when the temperature reaches around 70 degrees, the solar panels will no longer be able to work.
By that time, her safety grid and monitoring equipment would also be in a mess, but Li Ke didn't care. She went through all this painstaking work just to gain more assembly experience.
When installing and using these devices, in addition to following the instructions, she would also check her own hard drive knowledge base when encountering problems that she could not solve. For Li Ke, who now has some free time, doing this is very useful in killing time.
Li Ke has recently been charging her mobile power bank, various battery reserves, including various electric vehicles in her space. A large part of them are collected by her along the way. All of them are fully charged. In this way, even if the solar panels stop working later, the power she has stored will be enough for her to survive the next five months of extremely hot weather.
In the following month, Li Ke discovered that the people in the town below had taken new actions. They began to work at night and hide during the day, cutting down a large number of dead trees in the nearby mountains and forests, and then transported them back to their town in truckloads. The felling area was gradually approaching the village ten miles below Li Ke's new home.
After passing the village, the group of people will reach the broken road. There is almost no water in the ten-meter-long deep pit. Standing at the broken road and looking up, they can see the tall, strong, round and fat simple wall of Li Ke's house.
Li Ke ran to the opposite side of the broken road overnight and buried three rows of mines in a staggered arrangement on the road. There was no cement surface at the very end of the broken road, only hard soil, which was perfect for burying mines.
If the person coming does not walk to the end of the broken road, the landmine will not be triggered. Li Ke also put up a large iron plate 500 meters away, which read: Restricted area ahead, anyone entering will die.
After finishing all these, Li Ke ran back to his home and lived a semi-secluded life.
Half a month later, a landmine was suddenly triggered in the evening. Li Ke, who was exercising and boxing in the yard, heard the explosion, climbed up the wall, and saw a destroyed car with two dead bodies on the ground. Standing next to them were two people supporting each other, and they were retreating carefully.
Not far behind them, there was a car parked. Two people were standing next to the car, observing Li Ke through binoculars.
Li Ke was standing in the observation tower. The other party might be able to see the lens of the telescope, but could not observe her.
She saw that there seemed to be two people who had not gotten out of the car yet. From what she had observed through the telescope, these people did not look like the people she had seen in the town before.
Except for the two people sitting in the car, she could not see the whole picture. The others outside the car, including the dead body on the ground, were all dressed in clean and uniform combat uniforms and fully equipped. They all looked in good shape, comparable to the prisoners in Area 1 she had rescued, but their temperament seemed to be different from that group of prisoners.
These two cars and the people in them all look very expensive. Even in this difficult apocalypse, they don't seem to be able to hide their expensiveness.
Li Ke took a bottle of iced Coke from the space and drank it. No matter how expensive it was, it didn't matter. She was still being steamed by the sun, and she was as comfortable as she was now!
Li Ke watched as the intact car carrying the two injured people turned around and left, while the bodies of their companions were left there without being taken away. She had an even worse impression of this group of people. She also didn't know what the group of people in the town below were doing?
Were these people newly recruited? Or were there new forces joining in? Or was there something else going on in that town?
The situation in the town was actually pretty much the same as Li Ke had guessed. When Song Xian returned to the town that night, he was almost kidnapped as a bandit. It was not until his identity was clarified and someone from the Third Camp provided him with proof that he was allowed to return to his residence.
The people in their camp were all very excited. After all, some of the bandits were dead, some were captured, and they finally regained their freedom and could live like human beings.
The captives in Area 1 were the main force in killing the bandits, and all the supplies and equipment in the town were collected by them, but they had already informed everyone that this was only done to maintain the subsequent order and life in the town, and there would be no more bandits oppressing them in the future.
In the evening, to celebrate everyone's regaining of freedom, the kitchen specially prepared a hearty meal of meat soup noodles, with flatbreads on the side. Everyone's stomachs were filled and everyone was in a better mood.
After blowing out the lights, everyone lay on the bed, still discussing how brave those people in District 1 were today. Their town now has firearms and a group of powerful people like District 1 protecting it, so they should not be bullied anymore in the future.
Song Xian was lying on the bed, but he seemed unusually silent. There was no mention of Li Jia in any of these people's words, as if he had never entered this town at all. Song Xian was very sure that the people in the town were saved this time because of the help of Brother Li Jia.
It's just that Brother Li didn't let him mention him. In his heart, he admired Brother Li's behavior of doing good things without leaving a name, but also felt a little aggrieved for him. Everyone thanked everyone in District 1, but no one knew who the person who really helped a lot was?
When his friends asked him why he came back, he made up a lie, saying that he had walked a long way but didn't see anyone and couldn't find anything to eat. He was afraid of starving to death outside, so he rode back on a bicycle he found by chance, at least he might be able to have some soup.
Everyone heard his words without any doubt. When they fled here, they knew that there were really no people nearby except for the city shelter below. When they went out to look for supplies in the cold winter before, they found that there was no one nearby.
The next morning, Song Xian rode his bike up the mountain again, carrying a shovel. He was still thinking about burying Fat Tiger first. He couldn't explain why he was thinking this way, but he couldn't bear to let the body rot in the air, probably because he was the one who killed that person.
When he arrived at the place, Song Xian was shocked when he saw the sack on the ground. The sack, which should have been bulging into a big heap, was lying flat on the ground. There were some bloodstains on the sack, which were left yesterday, but it was obvious that there was no one inside.
Song Xian's heart was beating like thunder for a moment. Could it be that Fat Tiger was not dead? But he had only hit Fat Tiger's vital points when he finished off the wound, and in the end he was sure that he was no longer breathing.
With cold hands and feet, Song Xian held a shovel and looked carefully at the seal of the sack. He found that the mouth of the sack was still tied tightly, and the method was exactly the same as when he left last night.
Feeling a little curious, Song Xian carefully picked up the sack with a shovel, and found that although the sack was flat, there seemed to be something inside, in short, it was of some weight.
No matter what was inside, Song Xian didn't dare to open it and check it out alone. Moreover, because he couldn't expose Big Brother Li's existence, he couldn't bring anyone else with him. He had to handle this matter alone.
Song Xian gritted his teeth and began to dig a hole near the sack. Because the sack was flat, he did not dig the hole very deep. When he felt it was about right, he shoveled the sack into the hole with a shovel. After burying it with soil, he still used the shovel to pat it hard to make it firm.
Then he carefully returned to the cave where he had hidden before. After using a shovel to make sure that there was nothing unusual in the cave, he collected the sleeping bag and tent that Li Ke had left for him, tied them to the car and drove back.
