Chapter 28： base

Although there was some discrepancy between the time spent in the advanced stage and the previous life, Ye Xuan didn't find anything wrong with him, so he put this matter aside for now. After Ling Jiaze rested at home for a day to recover, the two of them left the temporary residence together and went to see the internal situation of the security base.

The two of them walked towards the most lively direction of the base, and Ye Xuan had been observing the current situation of the base along the way. Although there have been some small deviations in the time spent at the security base in two lifetimes, the security base in the early days of the apocalypse has not changed much, and it still makes people feel extremely depressed, as if breathing is a burden.

An old man shivering in ragged clothes, a skinny child, an unkempt middle-aged woman...

These people were of different ages and identities, but Ye Xuan saw one thing in common in them—empty eyes. These people have been wiped out of the hope of life in the past few months, leaving only the instinct for survival.

In addition, Ye Xuan also saw a young woman who was half pushed into the room with a strong man, and a boy with a slightly thin body and a good appearance was also half forcibly taken away...

Ye Xuan doesn't have to think about what will happen after these people leave. After the end of the world, morality and laws will collapse, the hungry will rob food, and the hungry will rob money, sex, and power. These three goals that human beings have always pursued are not uncommon at all. thing. As for exchanging your body for what you want, it was a common occurrence before the end of the world, not to mention that there are people who would not sell their bodies for profit before, but now embark on this path in exchange for a chance to live.

Ye Xuan is used to these situations in the post-apocalypse. Even if the order of the apocalypse is restored a little after a few years, it has not recovered to the productivity before the apocalypse. Living on the fringes of society, not starving to death, but just staying alive.

The slightly better thing is that maybe because of the zombie attack that they encountered on the way, they successfully hit some people who thought they were the chosen ones because of their abilities, and made them realize that they did not run wild in the end times. Abilities, his abilities are not very strong, and he has restrained a lot of arrogance. There are not many people in the base who bully the weak at will because of their strength. After all, morality is broken now, and the management of the base is not very strong. Once the malicious people completely lose control and let themselves go, the management of the base will not be able to suppress it.

Ye Xuan even has time to think, maybe the zombie tide can also play a role in helping base management? If there is no attack, the base will only be more chaotic, and the life of people with poor physical fitness will only be more miserable. This is probably the survival pressure brought by external threats?

Just like what he saw in his previous life, except for some conspirators who would do anything to achieve their goals, the major forces in the zombie siege base would join hands to fight against the zombies. Although those people have some small abacus, but really few dare to make small moves at that juncture.

cough…

After realizing that his thoughts had gone astray, Ye Xuan coughed uncomfortably and looked away from the small corner of the base.

Zombies are the enemies of human beings, he is still very clear about this...

It was the first time that Ling Jiaze faced these things head-on. When the apocalypse first came, he was in the school. On the one hand, the teachers of the school pressed him on the other hand. On the other hand, he had a bottom line. He was basically stable. Later, he and Ye Xuan contacted after they left. There are only the residents of the community and the survivors who went out to collect supplies. The residents of the community do not come to them easily. Those who dare to go out will not be too bad.

After arriving in the safe area, most of his thoughts were on Ye Xuan. Although he heard that the living conditions of ordinary people who did not bring supplies were poor, many people could only build floors in one room, and he was also classified as the army. There were only a few houses in the station, so it was impossible to arrange accommodation for so many people in a short period of time. But now that he came out to see him, he realized how difficult it is to survive in the last days, so difficult that only the beginning has caused countless people to fall into the abyss of despair.

Seeing that there were not many people around, he said in a low voice, "I think the situation in the safe area seems to be worse than I thought." According to his expectations, it is unlikely that the people in the safe area will be fully fed and clothed, but they will not be able to get there. After eating one bite, it was reduced to the level of selling out his body, at least maintaining the basic consumption of a body. Now the situation is much worse.

"No way, although City C is not a particularly large and prosperous city, it has quite a few citizens. Even if most of the citizens are involved in this disaster, the remaining citizens plus the survivors from the surrounding areas add up. It is not a small number. Although the army has collected some materials, it is not enough to see so many people on average. If you want to meet everyone's basic living needs, all the materials will be exhausted within a few days, and then only into a bigger predicament."

Ling Jiaze frowned and said, "But judging from the current number of people, even if the base minimizes the supplies it provides every day, it won't last too long, right?"

The population base is here, unless you don't give any materials, or even if you give everyone a small amount, it will add up to a large and terrifying number. If the base only wants to solve the material problem by reducing per capita consumption, it is really stupid.

Seeing Ling Jiaze's worried face, Ye Xuan pointed to the building in front of him and said, "Look, isn't this how the base solves the problem?"

"Survivor Center", Ling Jiaze read out the big characters on the sign, looking puzzled and asked, "Is this the place where the upper floors of the base work?"

"More than that", Ye Xuan looked at the buildings in front of him and said with a little nostalgia: "The base official will release the mission here, and the survivors will take the mission and go out or collect supplies or participate in rescue in exchange for what they need. , so that the base can operate normally.”

After the end of the world, many survivor bases have been formed. These bases have different names and different rules, but they all have such a place to issue and receive tasks, help exchanges and transactions between officials and ordinary people, and maintain the operation of the base. Almost all survivors will go to such a survivor center as soon as they arrive at the base to get what they want, and Ye Xuan is no exception. Now he can be said to be the most familiar with the operation mode of the base. .

"But not everyone has the courage to go out. In fact, those who dare to go out will not rely on the base for food and drink. This goes on..."

Seeing Ling Jiaze's voice getting lower and lower, Ye Xuan took his words in a low voice. "Either muster up the courage to go out to collect supplies, or take a step back and find a job in the base within your ability. If you retreat again, you will be a dead end. The base is not capable and impossible to support a group of idlers. In order to allow more people to live, you will get nothing for nothing. Those who wait for the support of others will not survive in the last days."

Ye Xuan remembers that after a period of time, after this method of receiving tasks and obtaining supplies is popularized, the base will completely stop the supply of free food, and the two paths of work and death are clearly in front of everyone. The cruelty is also completely exposed.

Knowing that Ye Xuan can't change this matter, Ling Jiaze raised his voice involuntarily, and asked aggressively, "So for the survival of more people, those who still can't adapt to the end of the world have to die, right? ?"

Before Ye Xuan could answer, Ling Jiaze realized the aggressiveness of his words and apologized, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." After speaking, he bowed his head in shame and didn't look at Ye Xuan again.

The apocalypse was not brought by Ye Xuan, and the corrupted human nature was not instigated by Ye Xuan. He was able to stand here safely, worrying that those 'vulnerable groups' depended on Ye Xuan to live and die. In this case, what qualification does he have to ask about nothing? What about Ye Xuan, who just told him the reality?

Ye Xuan was angry and funny when he saw that Ling Jiaze was as silent as a frosted eggplant. He was not angry at first. After all, he knew that although Ling Jiaze looked inaccessible on the face, he was actually a person who was much purer and kinder than himself, not to mention that he had experienced the end of the world one more time than him. It is normal to feel that you are too indifferent and have difficulty accepting some of your views. In addition, Ling Jiaze regretted and apologized as soon as he said it, and he couldn't be more angry.

The little anger that seems to be there now is because of Ling Jiaze's reaction - obviously the two have known each other for a while, and it is considered that they have experienced a life-and-death crisis like a zombie group. Woolen cloth?

He said helplessly: "I didn't say anything, why are you panicking?"

"I..." Ling Jiaze opened his mouth, but said nothing. Ye Xuan looked at his slightly red ears, and somehow thought of the words "care"...

If he remembers correctly, Ling Jiaze has some good feelings for him, so his current reaction... seems to be nothing incomprehensible? Thinking of this, Ye Xuan coughed uncomfortably and said nonchalantly, "There is only a prototype of the security base now, and many things are just my guesses. news from the city or the Northwest."

Hearing Ye Xuan's mention of the business, Ling Jiaze immediately put his emotional issues aside, nodded and said, "Let's go, I also want to know about my grandfather and the others quickly."

As for Ling Jiaze's father, it was tacitly ignored by the two of them.

Sorry for not updating for months

When I went out on a skateboard in July, I was distracted on the phone, and because I was not familiar with the road, I didn't pay attention to the turn ahead. After turning around, I didn't control the speed and went straight downhill, resulting in a fractured arm and a broken wrist. When I arrived, it took me more than two months to get better at home. During this period, my parents were watching on my mobile phone. I said that she could operate it, but I could not operate it myself (I listened to n novels abruptly...)

Because my parents don't know about my writing, it's not easy to ask them to use my account to ask for leave for me, so it's been delayed like this, sorry

I have almost recovered recently. It will take a few days to keep up with the previous ideas. It is estimated that I will be able to update normally in October. Thank you to the little angel who voted for me or irrigated the nutrient solution~
