apocalyptic cave life

Zhang Shu brought back a dozen guns and a small half box of bullets.

I don't know if Xie Gaowen, who came back in the morning, said anything to Zhang Juan. Anyway, when Zhang Shu handed them the gun, the two of them didn't ask anything.

Zhang Juan wanted to serve Zhang Shu a bowl of noodles, but Zhang Shu shook his head and went into his room to meditate.

It took more than two days for Zhang Shu to appear in front of several people again. If they knew the spiritual sense, they would see that the aura emanating from Zhang Shu's body was several times stronger than before. But they are just ordinary people, so naturally Nothing can be seen, the only difference that can be noticed is the sentence that Xiao Linde shouted - "Brother Shu walks without sound!"

It's not that there is no sound, but if you don't listen carefully, you won't know that Zhang Shu is approaching, and his breathing is so shallow that it is almost completely silent.

During Zhang Shu's two days of refining Qi, there were other changes inside and outside the cave.

A few pine branches were piled up in one corner of the cave, and a small area enclosed by it was covered with thick pine needles, moss, sawdust and other things, and small shiitake mushrooms grew in it.

When Zhang Shu squatted down to watch, Xiao Linde followed like a little tail, squatting beside him, stretched out his white and tender hands to gently touch the flowers of the shiitake mushrooms, and sang: "Three shiitake mushrooms, three shiitake mushrooms, grow Fast, long fast..."

Zhang Shu patted his head, and he said, "Uncle Crab said that mushrooms grow on Brother Tree's feet."

A voice came from behind, Xiao Linde turned his head, shouted: "Gugu!" and ran over.

Zhang Shu turned his head, Gu Qinghua came out of his room leaning on a crutch, and when he saw Zhang Shu, he nodded his head as a greeting.

As soon as Xiao Linde yelled, Zhang Shu knew how strange the existence of them was in the eyes of this child, he thought it was funny, and his expression relaxed a lot, he actually smiled back at Gu Qinghua, stood up and turned towards Go outside the cave.

A shed was built on the right side of the cave entrance, and dozens of barrels of gasoline had been moved from the truck and put into the shed.

Xie Gaowen walked back from the grassy dirt road with a green thing in his hand, and a gun on his shoulder. When he saw Zhang Shu from a distance, he raised his arm and shook it.

Little Linde ran past Zhang Shu and picked up Xie Gaowen.

Gu Qinghua caught up with Zhang Shu from behind, perhaps because Zhang Shu's smile gave him the courage to strike up a conversation.

"Uh... brother Shu."

"You can call me Zhang Shu directly, and tell me what medicine you need."

"I just want to ask a question."

Zhang Shu glanced at him: "Huh?"

Gu Qinghua hesitated for a moment, then said: "If I want to stay here, do you agree?"

"You shouldn't ask me alone, everyone here decides together."

"But..." Gu Qinghua looked strange, "Both Zhang Juan and Xie Gaowen asked me to ask you what you mean, and you agree that they have no objection."

Zhang Shu was taken aback, but didn't answer Gu Qinghua immediately.

Gu Qinghua thought that Zhang Shu didn't want him to stay, and was afraid that he would be kicked out after his leg injury healed, so he said eagerly: "I was wrong for not telling you the truth before, but I just met at that time, and I didn't dare to casually Tell the truth."

Speaking of this, Gu Qinghua saw Zhang Shu's inexplicable expression, and finally understood - Zhang Shu actually believed his previous rhetoric, and was extremely embarrassed all of a sudden.

"You...you really believe..."

What kind of research institute is doing research? It was Gu Qinghua who made it up because he was afraid that he would lose his value, break his leg, be left behind and be unable to survive. Unexpectedly, although Zhang Shu had always been hostile to him, he had never Having doubted the authenticity of these words, if he hadn't witnessed Zhang Shu's "ferocity" with his own eyes, Gu Qinghua would have thought that standing in front of him was a little sheep.

He was originally a member of the Tenth District Control Bureau, a former lieutenant at the FH Air Force Base in K City, and the predecessor of the unit he belonged to was a well-known air team before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the earliest air force with foreign pilots.

In the tenth district established after the second epidemic, the control bureau consisted of three different military units, which eventually disbanded due to uneven distribution. The ground equipment of Gu Qinghua's troops was far inferior to that of the other two troops. So he took some resources and left the tenth district, thinking of going to city A to build a containment area, but was chased and intercepted by two other troops, and he was the only one who escaped, and was wiped out on the highway.

"...The tenth district should open up farms near Mount X right now. Apart from the tenth district, there is no containment area in K City anymore. There is only one more than 100 kilometers east of the YZ Sea Hot Spring Island. I heard there is another one."

Gu Qinghua's words stunned Zhang Shu for a while, but he still chose to believe, because it was obvious that Gu Qinghua really wanted to stay here and live with them.

Gu Qinghua's military rank is not high, far from being as "official" as Wang Li, and he has personally experienced two epidemics, so he knows that the more people there are, the more likely it is to trigger another epidemic.

The unexplainable things about Zhang Shu are actually the reasons for Gu Qinghua's determination. Guns and ammunition are not omnipotent in the current world. The silver light in Zhang Shu's hand is far more powerful than ordinary guns.

In addition, the environment near the cave is unique, facing the lake and backing the mountain, there is a valley as a natural barrier, and the highway is more than five kilometers away, which is relatively closed and accessible, which is a good location; Xie Gaowen, Zhang Juan and even Zhang Shu are very People who are easy to get along with and have a good nature. If there is anything that everyone discusses and does together, the things they get are shared equally. They are very satisfied with the status quo and work together. A group of people like this is the only one Gu Qinghua has seen after the epidemic; The important thing is Zhang Shu——

Bullets kill zombies, but no one knows how many of the 70 billion humans have turned into monsters, let alone why?Since even zombies are things that cannot be explained clearly, it is better to rely on Zhang Shu who also has many unexplainable mysteries.

Modern science analyzes the brain into individual synapses and electronic pulses one by one, but combines these innumerable and vast "parts" like the Milky Way into a person, and then produces the power of thinking, that is, the soul. Science can only Proving its existence, but not explaining it.

Things that are difficult to explain are referred to as superstitions, and the attitude of refusing to admit them was once the purpose of this country, but the gradual development of science as a belief has instead proved things that should not exist, and all explanations have become jokes.

Instead of refusing to admit what is beyond cognition, it is better to admit that human beings are still very small and do not know enough about this world.

Having figured this out, looking at Zhang Shu again, there is nothing to be afraid of.

As long as you can survive, there is no need to cling to your past identity.

Xie Gaowen led Xiao Linde back to the entrance of the cave with Zhang Juan who had just finished watering the vegetable field on the hillside, and heard Zhang Shu say to Gu Qinghua: "If you want to stay, the first thing to do is to teach them to use guns. If you all know how to use guns, when I am not around, even if zombies or people with malicious intentions find this place, you will still be able to protect yourself."

Gu Qinghua smiled and said, "No problem!"

Xie Gaowen was the first to be happy. He went out and dug up an orange tree raised in someone's house and came back to supplement Xiao Linde with vitamin C. He carried a gun on his back to strengthen his courage. If he really encountered a zombie, it would matter whether he could shoot bullets Question, of course I am happy to hear what they have to say.

Zhang Juan said: "Eat first! Let's talk when we're full! I'll cook, and you guys connect the pipes! I have to move the cement bricks back in the afternoon. Hurry up and we can take a hot shower at night!"

Zhang Shu was dumbfounded: "Huh?" Hot bath?Not dreaming?

This dumbfounded, the "thinking" look when he was talking to Gu Qinghua just now disappeared, and he returned to the frustrated look of half a child. Zhang Juan and Xie Gaowen looked at each other and smiled knowingly, seeing what they were laughing at Gu Qinghua felt a burst of relief all over his body.

Xiao Linde pointed to a newly opened drainage ditch beside the doorway wall and showed it to Zhang Shu: "Uncle Crab dug it! Mom told me to build a small house with cement bricks and I can take a bath!"

Zhang Shu remembered that they had water heaters, generators, and now gasoline, so of course they could take a hot bath.

When Zhang Juan was cooking, Zhang Shu and Xie Gaowen nailed the brackets, and Gu Qinghua took the torch to weld the water pipes consciously. Together, the three of them actually fixed the water pipes before eating.

If you don't care about meat, the meal is very rich.

After dinner, Gu Qinghua wanted to go out with Zhang Shu and Xie Gaowen, but Zhang Shu asked him to teach Zhang Juan to use a gun first, but he refused because his leg hadn't recovered yet.

Xie Gaowen parked the truck in the woods outside the valley and did not drive in.

When he walked out, he told Zhang Shu that if the car did not come in, the bushes and weeds on the dirt road would not leave too many traces. Even if someone followed the tire marks to find the car, it would be difficult to find it in the valley. As soon as he said it, Zhang Shu was taken aback: Sure enough, people's potential has been forced out, even the simple and honest Xie Gaowen has a long-term mind.

When he arrived at the cement factory, Zhang Shu did the same, he stopped moving the cement bricks, stood still and checked his surroundings with his spiritual sense to prevent accidents.

Suddenly there was a "hey".

Xie Gaowen asked: "What?" He looked at Zhang Shu nervously.

Zhang Shu said: "It's nothing, I'll go around."

Of course Xie Gaowen knew about Zhang Shu's ability, but he still told him to "be careful" with full of concern.

Zhang Shu nodded, and walked into the cement factory - at the entrance of the underground cave last time, there was a spiritual light, blue and black, obviously there was a monster there.

The aura of the other party is slightly inferior to that of Zhang Shu. From this point of view, it is possible to fight. If it succeeds, even just such a monster can give Zhang Shu enough aura to sum up hundreds of ordinary zombies.

Both the Broken Jinmei and the spirit fire pendant could not be more full of spiritual energy, Zhang Shu checked again to make sure there were no other threats nearby, and slowly approached.

The monster is in the cave entrance, a few steps away from the cave entrance.

Zhang Shu had already approached within ten meters, but his spiritual sense still couldn't see the situation in the cave too clearly. He could only tell from the fact that the aura was in a semicircle and turned upside down on the ground in the cave to judge that the monster was lying on the ground. Scanning with the consciousness, I couldn't see anything there.
