doomed [last days]

Sleeping in the ranger station, the camping tent they found was still put aside.

Lin Shen took the sleeping bag out of the compression bag, put it aside and let it fluff up naturally. Taking advantage of this time, he picked up the quilts left by the forest rangers, which were neatly stacked on the bed, and put them on the table.

Then the two of them spread the sheets and quilt they brought over on the single bed and used it as a mattress.

However, when Shi Yiran spread the double sleeping bag on the bed, she found that there was a section of the sleeping bag that could not be covered, hanging down along the edge of the bed, as if the sleeping bag was the bed sheet.

She frowned, turned her head to Lin Shen who was busy inflating the inflatable pillow, and said, "This bed is too small."

Lin Shen puffed his face and blew another breath into the pillow before closing the inflation valve and looking over.

"There used to be only one person living here," she put the blown pillow aside, walked over, lifted one side of the sleeping bag, began to pull the side zipper, and muttered, "I wanted to sleep together... "

Shi Yiran was standing beside her. Hearing Lin Shen's words, his eyes flickered, and his face felt a little hot.

As if she changed the subject, she asked, "You, what are you doing?"

"I split this into singles." Lin Shen unzipped the zipper on the other side and lifted up the shorter sleeping bag on the top. "You sleep on the bed first tonight."

"how about you?"

Hearing what she said, the charming thoughts in Shi Yiran's heart had long been left behind.Although the bed is for one person, they don't need a sleeping bag, just like they did at the park management office outside Jianyuan, put a layer of sheets, and then cover them with their own quilts.

But Lin Shen didn't seem to want to do that.

She folded the sleeping bag left on the bed in half, pulled up the tension beam, and stuffed the blown inflatable pillow into it, then said: "I won't sleep tonight, I removed the chain lock outside, Now that iron door can't be locked, I'm a little worried..."

On the way to Hongchi, she basically didn't think about the vigil, because Shi Yiran needs enough sleep to keep her eyes healthy, and she has to drive the next day, so she must not be tired and make fun of the lives of two people.

It's different now, they have this stronghold, and no one will need to drive tomorrow, so it doesn't matter if they lose a few hours of sleep.Moreover, there may not be too many zombies in the mountain, but not necessarily wild beasts.

The iron gate can't be locked now, so someone still needs to watch the night.

After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and lightly pressed the center of Shi Yiran's frowning brows, and coaxed: "I'll just stay there for a few days, and after two days, I'll go down the mountain to find a lock, and lock the iron gate at night when I sleep. Enough."

"I don't agree," Shi Yiran objected without thinking, "Even if you want to watch the night, you can't watch it alone."

She is not a chick under Lin Shen's wings, but a partner who wants to stand side by side with her.If Lin Shen had to do everything, what was the difference between her and those people who stretched out their clothes and opened their mouths.

Shi Yiran pulled down Lin Shen's hand that was caressing her eyebrows, and looked at Lin Shen with burning eyes: "I know you are worried about my eyes, but I can't just stand by and watch you do these things. Lin Shen Shen, you don't think I'm the kind of young lady who doesn't touch the spring water with my ten fingers?"

The tone of her questioning made Lin Shen's heart skip a beat, and Lin Shen hurriedly shook his head like a rattle: "Damn, of course not!"

"Then I'll be on guard in the first half of the night, and I'll call you in the second half of the night." Shi Yiran wasn't really trying to embarrass her in the first place, but when she saw that she was being bluffed, she immediately said it.

Lin Shen licked his lips, feeling a bit embarrassed: "Otherwise, I'll watch in the first half of the night..."

She was afraid that Shi Yiran would not call her when it was time for her to wake up to watch the night.

But Lin Shen would think so, and Shi Yiran would naturally think of it too.She withdrew her gaze from staring at Lin Shen, lowered her eyes, "Lin Shen, is that why you don't believe me?"

As she spoke, she let go of the hand she had been holding, and her voice was more lonely than before.

When Lin Shen heard it, he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately said: "Of course not, how could I not believe you!"

She stretched out her long arms and hugged him tightly, "It's my fault, I'm just worried about you..."

"You don't believe me?" Shi Yiran leaned against Lin Shen's arms without moving.

"no!"

"Then I'll watch in the middle of the night."

"... Then we have to set a time."

"Four o'clock."

"No." What's the difference between staying at four o'clock and staying all night? Lin Shen first said two words forcefully, and then felt a little timid in her heart. She licked her lips and discussed: "It's only nine o'clock now. You stay until two o'clock, and then replace me."

In this way, if you get up at seven o'clock, you will be alone for five hours.

Shi Yiran's hands wrapped around Lin Shen's waist at some point, and the loneliness on her face was swept away long ago, with a sly smile in her eyes, she replied, "Okay, it's settled."

They had already washed up, Shi Yiran watched Lin Shen get into the sleeping bag, helped her zip up the sleeping bag, sat on the side of the bed, and said, "Close your eyes and go to sleep, don't you have two o'clock?" Is your alarm clock on?"

After she finished speaking, she poked Lin Shen's cell phone next to her head.

Lin Shen hesitated, opened his eyes and looked at Shi Yiran's expression, and finally said dryly: "I don't believe you."

Her cautious tone, combined with her blinking deer-like eyes, made Shi Yiran lose his skills all of a sudden.

Raising her hand to pull her broken hair behind her ears, Shi Yiran bent down, touched the corner of Lin Shen's lips, and said as if coaxing a baby, "Got it, go to sleep."

Her voice was very soft, but it disturbed Lin Shen's heart.

The longer the two of them spent together, the more Lin Shen felt that Shi Yiran was more "open", and she was no longer the person who blushed when they kissed each other.

Of course, she herself too.

So Lin Shen licked the corner of his mouth, said good night, and then closed his eyes.

The lights in the room had been turned off, and Shi Yiran sat by the bed, quietly feeling the breath of the person lying down.Her heart is like a small wooden basket full of persimmons in autumn, it is full.

When it was almost two o'clock, Shi Yiran turned off the alarm clock and called Lin Shen softly.

When she lay down again in the sleeping bag that still held Lin Shen's body temperature, the two of them switched roles, and Lin Shen put his hand into the sleeping bag and let her hold her.

However, the holding hand had disappeared when Shi Yiran opened her eyes.After the drowsy drowsiness dissipated, Shi Yiran got up from her sleeping bag, glanced at her phone, and went out.

When she came out, Lin Shen was adding firewood to the fire. Seeing that she came out wearing only a long-sleeved T-shirt, Lin Shen stood up quickly, took off his coat, and put it on her.

"It's cold in the morning in the mountains, didn't I put a coat for you beside the bed?"

"……I do not see it"

After Shi Yiran woke up, she didn't see Lin Shen, so she ran out quickly, noticing what was lying beside the bed.

She was thin-skinned and embarrassed to say so, but she dragged Lin Shen back into the house, returned the coat she was wearing, and then went to get the coat next to the bed and put it on herself.

Lin Shen watched her movements, and said, "I boiled hot water, you go and wash up, eight-treasure porridge is heating up in the pot, and we will have breakfast in a while."

This forest ranger station is good everywhere, but it doesn't have a water heater, let alone a water heater, and it doesn't even have a bathroom.So if you don't want to use cold water for washing, you have to deliberately boil hot water.

Lin Shen pondered, building a simple "water heater" in the future, he couldn't bathe in cold water all year round.

When the two of them had finished their breakfast, it was only after 08:30. After packing up the cooking utensils, Lin Shen sat in the sun and stretched his waist: "Didn't there be moats in ancient times? I thought about it, we can also build one." .”

"You want to dig around outside the wall...?"

"It's mainly on the side of the iron gate. Just dig a ditch. It doesn't need to be too wide. If there are people or animals coming at night, it's better to have a defense."

Shi Yiran nodded, but glanced at the off-road vehicle parked in the yard: "Then you have to find a board first, otherwise, our car will not be able to drive out."

"Well, I need to get a board, so there's no rush for this."

In addition to safety, the most important thing is the source of food. Relying on going down the mountain to the city is not as reliable as self-sufficiency.

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took advantage of the shade. They already had the piece of land outside the door, and tomatoes were planted on it.It's just that the two of them don't know when the tomatoes are fruiting.

So we still need to explore slowly.

They finally decided to clean up the weeds in the vegetable field outside first. If there is no fertilization, the nutrients in the land will recover very slowly. At least the things that absorb nutrients but are useless must be disposed of first.

The plucked grass is placed in the corner of the wall exposed to the sun, and can be used as firewood when it dries.

"When I was in junior high school, our school's playground was not made of rubber, it was just a large piece of land, and the school organized us to pull weeds."

Lin Shen looked at the vegetable field without weeds, and sighed: "I never thought that after so many years, I can experience it again."

Shi Yiran smiled, but when she looked down and saw the green and black dirt on her hands, she suddenly became irritable, "I'm going to wash my hands."

After she finished speaking, she walked into the yard.

Lin Shen watched her walking faster and faster, and the arc of the corner of her mouth became more and more curved.She took a glance, and on the leaf of the tomato plant closest to her, there were densely packed small white worms, and she shivered.

But the pests and diseases can't be eradicated, and simply pinching them with hands can't get rid of them. Lin Shen sighed and walked back into the yard.

Shi Yiran was still squatting at the faucet washing her hands. After listening to Lin Shen, she pondered for a while and said, "Plant ash is weakly alkaline. Let's add some plant ash to the water and spray it on the leaves to see if there is any Effect."

As soon as she said it, Lin Shen immediately remembered those science knowledge points that had been thrown into the corners.

"Okay," Lin Shen kicked the ground with his toes in embarrassment, and muttered, "I've forgotten all about it. I just remember that when I was playing games, I had to pick the worms when there were worms on the crops."

"Picking insects? How to pick them?"

She asked seriously, Lin Shen was stunned, and said without thinking: "Press the interaction button to pick it up..."
