Song Xian and Qiu Feng came to the mountain and brought up the map they had drawn, hoping to persuade Li Ke to choose a place on their side as a backup base.

"This place is closer to the sea, and there is a large forest nearby. In a few years, the vitality there should be more vigorous. Jin Ce has also seen the soil there, which is better than ours, and the climate is also slightly better, so the plants grow faster than here." Qiu Feng said to Li Ke who was looking at the map.

"What about safety?" Li Ke asked.

Qiu Feng: "There are two small bases, but they are not close to us. They have no intention of merging with us and just want to not bother each other. Da Zhuang has already investigated their population situation. The two bases combined have less than 3,000 people, and their strength is much weaker than ours."

Qiu Feng's base has 70,000 people, and Song Xian has also grown to 5,000 people. Compared with them, these two bases are indeed weak.

Moreover, Qiu Feng and Song Xian have been in closer contact in recent years, and they often share technology, manpower and materials. Such good neighbors are not easy to find, so when they moved again, they discussed it together.

Li Ke frowned slightly: "You have been listening to the radio recently, right? Some places on the border have already withdrawn their troops. The notice asked us to unite our forces and defend ourselves in the next period of time. In addition, the locations of several bases were reported. Anyone interested can seek refuge there."

Qiu Feng and Song Xian looked at each other and said, "We heard it too, but we have too many people, and the locations of those bases are not easy to find. Now the terrain has changed, and the traffic on the road has been destroyed. We are now almost able to achieve self-sufficiency in some materials, so we have no intention of joining those bases."

Li Ke nodded: "It's okay if you don't join, but this news also shows that some places will have foreign forces entering, and the situation may change greatly in the future. In the past few nights, some planes have also appeared in the sky. We don't know the other party's intentions. You should make the necessary defense preparations in advance. For the new base, you should think about how to improve the combat convenience and defense level. As for where we will go in the mountain, we will have our own plans when the time comes."

After Qiu Feng went down the mountain, Song Xian stayed behind. He asked what he felt in his heart: "Brother Li, are you guys planning to leave too?"

Over the past three years, Song Xian had also doubted how many people there were on the mountain. He had heard other people's voices, but the only person he had seen was Brother Li. However, even though he had doubts, he always knew not to ask questions that he shouldn't ask.

Li Ke looked at Song Xian, who had become much stronger. He was completely different from when she rescued him on the hillside three years ago.

Over the past few years, Li Ke has given them some small amounts of support, which is insignificant compared to the supplies in her space, so Li Ke has always regarded them as good neighbors and has never regarded them as a force she has cultivated.

Deep down in Li Ke's heart, they were partners who could break up at any time. Li Ke felt it was a great honor to be able to live peacefully with them for such a long time without them making any intrusive inquiries.

But if it is really unbearable to live here, Li Ke doesn't want to continue to form a group. Plants appear, and Li Ke wants to go out and try her luck, perhaps breaking her stagnant physical barrier.

Of course, there is another point, that is, Li Ke also feels that life should have some changes, go out to see the outside world, see what the world has become, and find a place that is more suitable for living.

Li Ke did not answer Song Xian's question, but just asked him to live well with everyone. Song Xian is not alone now, he has a girlfriend, and the two have a good relationship and have no plans to have children.

When Li Ke was coming down the mountain, Song Xian pointed out his girlfriend to her. The girl looked healthy and determined. Li Ke asked them to live a good life.

This summer is still very hot, but the good thing is that its maximum temperature did not exceed that of previous years, and was even two degrees lower than last year. The temperatures in previous years, whether extremely hot or extremely cold, continued to break records.

Before the temperature dropped, two more earthquakes occurred. Li Ke's wall began to tilt and crack. As soon as Li Ke felt the earthquake, he folded up the bunker, ran to the ground, folded up the villa, and quickly hid in the space.

This time, some people and materials had already been transferred from the Akiyama base, so the damage underground was not too serious, but the collapse of a nearby mountain blocked their two exits, which also forced them to leave earlier.

When they came to say goodbye, Li Ke gave them some supplies. At night, he sat on the wall and watched the two old neighbors leave with a long convoy.

Li Ke took away all his belongings, leaving only the tall wall. Li Ke had put a lot of thought into building it, and it was thick and tall, giving people a sense of security.

Li Ke recorded some videos and took a few photos around it, and then after the sun went down, she rode her motorcycle down the mountain and said goodbye to the place where she had lived for nearly four years.

In the Qingyuan base, Chen Jiaojiao had just sent her husband away, well, she had just buried him. Don't get me wrong, Mo Ze died of illness. Although Chen Jiaojiao didn't take good care of him, she didn't really do much to him.

Three years ago, not long after Chen Qi left, Chen Jiaojiao and her mother Li Zhenzhen saw off her mother-in-law. One snowy night, she slipped and fell and never woke up again.

As a son, Moze had no doubt at all, because he knew that his mother had gone out to find a good woman to give birth to a child for him. The moment he heard the news of his mother's death, Moze actually felt a sense of relief.

When Mo Ze received his mother's frozen body, he asked the people at the body collection office to store the body temporarily and bury it when it thawed. He did not have any doubts about his wife and mother-in-law.

What made Chen Jiaojiao even happier was that Mo Ze was dying. Chen Jiaojiao heard this news from another woman.

Later, she went to Mo Ze to interrogate him, but was slapped in the face by the angry Mo Ze. Chen Jiaojiao immediately screamed, calling her mother, and fought back, scratching Mo Ze's face so badly that she could not go out to see anyone for half a month.

After this battle, Chen Jiaojiao completely suppressed Mo Ze and became the mistress of the Mo family who had the final say. Li Zhenzhen also lived with her at her repeated insistence.

Mo Ze lost his manly abilities and became a coward. Although Chen Jiaojiao disliked him, his identity as a member of the Mo family was still useful, so she never thought of killing him.

In the new base, the place they lived in was a little smaller than before, but it was still a spacious two-bedroom, one-living room apartment located on the second floor underground.

Maybe it was because he couldn't adapt to the underground life, but Mo Ze's health was getting worse and worse, and he finally didn't make it past the fourth year. Chen Jiaojiao wasn't very sad, but she was worried that without Mo Ze and without a child, she might be bullied when she fought for material supplies in the Mo family in the future.

Mo Ze was buried that day. On her first night as a widow, Chen Jiaojiao went out in the middle of the night and did not return home until five in the morning. Li Zhenzhen heard the noise and got out of bed.

"You are too impatient. At least wait for two days, and then it will look better." Li Zhenzhen said to Chen Jiaojiao with some disapproval.

Chen Jiaojiao said indifferently: "Who cares about others? There are many people who do things worse than me. Mom, things are different now than before. There is nothing real to eat or drink. If you see those people living on the ground, you will know how ugly their lives are."

Li Zhenzhen stopped talking. In the past two years, after Jiaojiao became able to take charge of her own affairs, she refused to listen to many people's words.

Chen Jiaojiao said happily, "Mom, light another candle. I brought back a chicken and a box of peanuts today. Let's have a good meal. I finally understand that no matter how hard life is, those powerful people can't suffer. They still have wine and meat, and they are so happy."

Li Zhenzhen thought this was not right. She knew Chen Jiaojiao had a lover, but the conditions were just average: "What do you mean? Didn't you go to see your boyfriend?"

Chen Jiaojiao seemed to have drunk some wine, and she chuckled and said, "I went to see my boyfriend, but he's a new boyfriend."
