The Zombies Are Coming But I’m Laying Down At Home

    The strange atmosphere did not last long, because they soon came to the next intersection, and they had to continue to adjust the route according to the map.

    Now that they have embarked on a relatively sparsely populated provincial road, the box truck no longer needs to be kept at the height of twenty-story buildings, and only needs to fly at a height of four or five meters above the ground.

    On the way, they encountered an electric car that was not broken. They instructed the house to change the interface, charge the electric car, and then fixed the box car on the top of the electric car and drove for a while.

    At two o'clock in the afternoon, the two came to the place where grandma was when communication was briefly restored at the end of June.

    This is a branch of a provincial road, one side is going out of the province, and the other side is going to Baochang County, where my grandmother's destination is.

    Fu Erdie went straight to Baochang County.

    In fact, in Fu Erdie's childhood memories, she and her grandmother came to play in Xiangde Village, Baochang County.

    At that time, there was no expressway, and the provincial road was not repaired here. Fu Erdie took a long-distance bus all day long. She was uncomfortable with motion sickness, and wanted to go to the toilet, but she had nowhere to go. She arrived at Baochang County after a lot of twists and turns, and then took the locals' motorcycles and finally arrived at Xiangxiang. German Village.

    The initial journey experience was too painful, and Fu Erdie never went to the countryside with her grandmother to play in the countryside again, and now it’s not a big impression.

    But Fuerdie knows that going down from this branch, although you can reach the destination according to the map, it may also be diverted due to various accidents. According to her experience and memory of old roads, grandma will take those mountain roads that may not be found on the map.

    This fear is confirmed when it comes to a blocked road.

    Grandma really couldn't get to the countryside from this road.

    Fuerdie drew on the paper map the location where grandma stayed until now where it was blocked, and marked several forks in the middle.

    In fact, there are some fields in the field that are not shown on the map, and the car can drive up, but it is not shown on the map.

    Fu Erdie changed the pen of a different color and marked the approximate positions of the paths she had just written down.

    "We still have to follow the original trajectory and first go to Xiangde Village, Baochang County to check the situation. If there is no one, we may have to find someone from these marked forks."

    Fu Erdie pursed her lips.

    Grandma, you must be well, wait for me somewhere to pick you up... Be sure to wait for me.

    The rest of the flight went well. At five o'clock in the afternoon, they successfully arrived at the county seat of Baochang County.

    Fu Erdie has imagined many situations, the best one is that everyone is alive, grandmother, aunt, cousin live in relatives, or people whose rooms are vacant and no one lives, and then it is difficult Whether it was farming or finding a local granary, they managed to survive.

      Over time, they died of disease and starvation.

    Fu Erdie hopes for a good outcome. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter if it's bad. As long as people are still alive, everything can be said.

    However, Fu Erdie did not expect that when she arrived at the county seat, what she saw was empty.

    No zombies and no human figures. There were several rotting and stinking corpses on the ground, but they were obviously months old and not new.

    The box truck moved steadily forward against the ground. Fu Erdie circled around the county without seeing a living person, and rushed in the direction of the village.

    There are some zombies along the way, the kind that can be solved casually, but there are still no living people.

    It wasn't until she came to a vast but apparently manned field that Fu Erdie finally felt the breath of a living person.

    She took out the binoculars and looked around, and finally saw a gray figure doing farm work on an inconspicuous ridge.

    Fuerdie quickly took out two buckets to fill the house with water, and let the potato seedlings produce a few potatoes.

    The potatoes obtained from potato seedlings under normal conditions are already the size of footballs. Its potatoes are not bad, and can be eaten directly, without poison, and mutated to a very humanized level, which is very sufficient for exchangeable materials. Ordinary people eat it sparingly, one can last for ten days. Fu Erdie took three out, which was a month's ration for a person.

    Fu Erdie and Sang Wenhao can't eat as much when it's time for dinner, so they both control the size of the potatoes, and produce potatoes the size of a palm.

    Prepare the materials that can exchange information, and the two of them controlled the truck to float towards the working farmers.

    The farmer is very vigilant, looking around from time to time, and seeing a black thing floating over from a distance, he was startled and ran away.

    But his speed was not as fast as the box truck that was going very fast, and he was quickly overtaken by the box truck.

    Fu Erdie did not shout loudly, but politely said at a distance not far or near enough that the human ear could hear: "We are not bad people, we are here to find relatives and want to inquire about news ."

    When I heard the voice of a normal person, the farmer's footsteps paused.

    When he stopped, the boxcar passed him and came to him.

    The box car at this time has already come over, just like the most common cable car in the apocalypse foreground area.

    A man and a woman were sitting in the window of the small cable car, with a pile of cotton-like dandelions above their heads, which looked like the people in the painting.

    It took a while for the farmer to react, and he was very vigilant while heaving a sigh of relief: "Are you people with abilities? Who are you looking for?"

    Fu Erdie reported her grandmother's name, Cao Xiufen, and the man let out an "oh" and looked a lot more relaxed: "There are three of them, old, middle and young, right? Besides her, there are others Her daughter and grandson?"

    "Yes!" Fu Erdie's eyes widened, "It's great that you know them! Where are they now?"

    "They're gone." The farmer still wanted to continue farming, but considering that these two were supernatural beings, he didn't dare to offend him.

    Fuerdie clearly saw the reluctance of the farmers, and picked up a bucket of water from under the window: "Do you have a container that can hold water? These are clean water, you can drink it, I will pour it to you."

    The farmer's eyes lit up.

    The water he drinks now is well water and river water. But the taste of these water is very strange, and many people have been killed by drinking it before. He didn't want to drink mutated dirty water at all, it would be great to have clean water for him to drink normally!

    He immediately changed his attitude, looked left and right, and after confirming that there were no other people or zombies, he offered to invite them to sit at home, obviously willing to talk for a long time.

    This farmer's uncle's home is a very ordinary small bungalow that can be seen everywhere in the countryside, and it is dark inside.

    He found a room where the sun could still shine, and invited two people to sit in. After Fu Erdie took out a potato the size of a football, his smile became more real.

    "As you all know, there are very few people in the countryside, and many of them are elderly people and left-behind children. After the end of the world, many elderly people did not become zombies, and they were scared to death by the situation outside. already."

    Fu Erdie couldn't help interrupting: "Can you tell me where my grandmother went?"

    "Don't worry," the farmer waved his hand, "your grandmother has gone to the base. The road is not easy to walk, and there may be many accidents. If you want to find it, it will not be easy for a day or two. Look, listen to what I have to say."

    Base?

    Fu Erdie and Sang Wenhao looked at each other.

    When Sang Wenhao was chased by zombies and escaped from the university town, didn't he meet the team that came out of the base to find survivors, and got a sniper rifle because of it?

    Does this village also encounter passing troops?

    Fu Erdie nodded to the uncle: "Trouble, please continue."

    The sun slowly sets from the west, and when it is finally level with the horizon, Fu Erdie finally knows the beginning and end of everything.

    This is the apocalyptic life of an ordinary person in a remote village without much power.

    As the old man said, after the end of the world, many people become zombies, and many old people are directly scared to death.

    But these zombies are not the speed-powered zombies that Fu Erdie encountered on the first day of the apocalypse. They walk slowly and limp, and normal people can deal with them when they don't form groups of disaster sites.

    In fact, this also confirms that it is the right choice for people in the city to flee to the countryside. The countryside is indeed much safer.

    But the zombies can be handled, but the food is not enough.

    We continued to plant the fields later, but encountered heavy rains and did not know where the seeds went. In short, I have been busy for several months and have no food.

    One of the advantages of rural areas compared to urban areas is that almost every household has food reserves. And everyone was born and raised locally. They knew where there was a granary for purchasing crops. They drove a truck tremblingly, hit a few crooked zombies, and they could drag a truckload of food back.

    Fu Erdie's grandmother, Cao Xiufen, was almost lost when she encountered a motorcade carrying gasoline and diesel at the gas station, and then she arrived at Xiangde Village, Baochang County.

    Fu Erdie was a little scared thinking about that scene.

    Even my grandmother, who goes back to the countryside for a vacation every year, made a mistake.

    "But even if there is food now, we can't sit on the mountain, we still have to find a way to farm the land."

    The uncle sighed when he said this: "I just thought, even if the land is polluted and the sky is dry and waterlogged for a while, the land that should be planted should still be planted. Moreover, where to plant the land is not planted. What? If we go to those bases, we don't have to farm? Isn't it still the same."

    At the beginning of September, a convoy belonging to the base passed by here. They sent someone to briefly repair the radio in the town, and started to put a notification on the loudspeaker, so that those who want to follow the convoy to the base can start it now. The convoy will wait in a landmark square in the town.

    "At that time, there were actually some unkilled zombies in the town. The people in the convoy cleaned up all the zombies and let everyone pass when the scattered zombies did not gather again. So many people It's over, your grandmother, grandson and grandson are inside."

    Fu Erdie listened to the whole process and felt a little relieved.

    But she noticed that the peasants always used "convoy" to describe the group of people instead of "army", what is the situation?

      Of course, you can't have the identity of the former soldier casually, and the army can't use the discipline of the army to require the newly joined abilities. So now, whether it is the common people or the base itself, they are all called by the convoy."

    "Actually speaking of conscience, it's really not easy for these superpowers. They are willing to help our little people."

    The farmer spoke with a jolt. How could he forget that these two are also supernatural beings!

    He was in a hurry to make up for it: "I'm not saying that it's not good if you don't help..."

    "It's okay, I know what you mean."

    Fu Erdie poured a whole bucket of water into the farmer's uncle's water bucket, and gave him three large potatoes by the way. To the box car, flew away.

    Fuerdie was afraid of deviating from the route of the map, so she did not go too far, but chose a wasteland, and planned to park here tonight and sleep in the box car.

    She sorted out the information given to her by the farmers, and there are several very clear and important points.

    First of all, the three of them have no powers.

    Secondly, although the base no longer has the concept of various official organizations in the past, there will be different changes due to the addition of power users, but on the whole, it will take care of ordinary people. Ordinary people like my grandmother who have many elderly diseases but have no medicine will have healing powers to help them temporarily restore their health.

    It is said that after arriving at the base, you can seek treatment with healing powers every month instead of medicine.

    Third, the use of powers instead of drugs requires "payment". This is related to the exchange of labor value at the base.

    The people who go to the base have very heavy work. The team members did not hide this, and directly stated that the current construction foundation of the base is to find all kinds of uncontaminated soil, transport the soil back, and then spread it on the abandoned high-rise buildings layer by layer. Soil, plant shade-loving crops.

    In addition to farming, many jobs that were originally done by machinery also require a lot of manpower to pile up. What about coal mining and transportation, food processing, fabric weaving, etc., etc., a series of work must be returned to the stage of being completed by manpower.
