Chapter 7 - planning

When leaving this **** pharmacy, Wei Xuan conveniently pulled out the zombie who was having a meal inside, and threw that corpse into a corner on one side. After all, this is a pharmacy, and there will definitely be survivors who will need to use the items inside. Even if he is unable to save anyone, he can barely reduce the number of zombies in the pharmacy.

The two stopped by a water station. Looking at the unoccupied room filled with bottled water, Wei Xuan looked at his still aching shoulder, and then turned his head to look at Du Hang obediently following behind him.

“Du Hang, come…” He pulled Du Hang, who had no idea that Wei Xuan had already treated him as a coolie, to the side of a pile of bottled water, Wei Xuan held his arms and helped him bend over. Bend down, help him set up the poss, trying to make him hug a bucket of water…

Du Hang was put in a hugging pose, and the target of the hug was the bottled water in front of him. If he could be “hugged” by a man who could be called a handsome guy before the end of the world, if the bucket of water knew Blushing and heartbeating, duplicity matched his movements. But unfortunately, when Wei Xuan felt that Du Hang had “hugged” the bucket of water and was about to let him try to carry it all the way back to their hotpot restaurant, Du Hang, who had no strength in his arms, stood up straight by himself. , the barrel, remained in place motionless.

Unwilling Wei Xuan tried twice more. After confirming that Du Hang could not carry things according to his own opinion for the time being, he had no choice but to take the handle that was hung on the wall and was specially used for carrying water. He lifted a bucket with his uninjured arm, let Du Hang stand outside him, tried his best not to be discovered by the survivors who might still be around, and carried the bucket back to their temporary residence all the way. .

I have to say that the place Wei Xuan chose to stay at the beginning, that is, the hot pot restaurant they had avoided for a whole week in the previous life, is really a very good place.

This street is a commercial street between several residential areas. Although there are residential areas behind the facades on both sides of the street, but because they are relatively old residential areas, there are not too tall floors, and the trees on both sides of the road It’s been a few years, even if he goes out with Du Hang on the streets where zombies are roaming, as abnormal as he is now, no one will notice.

Therefore, after spending a day and walking around the streets for a long time, he basically collected everything he needed.

Wei Xuan was not prepared to really regard this hot pot restaurant as a nest for himself and Du Hang to live in the future, so although he would collect some supplies, it was only the most basic things.

But some things, once he sees them, will be collected as much as possible. At the same time, Wei Xuan, who is not afraid of zombies, also made a “feat”. While collecting things, he would also pull some zombies wandering far away to the vicinity of the hot pot restaurant, and even bring them closer In the room on the first floor of the store, let these guys help him “watch the house”. In this way, even if someone notices the strangeness of the hot pot restaurant and wants to come and take a look, he must first weigh the lethality of these zombies and calculate the number of these zombies.

And now, Wei Xuan, who was sitting at a big dining table, was tinkering with the spoils he harvested today.

“It would be great if you could understand what I’m saying.” While muttering, Wei Xuan’s hands kept busy, “I’ll help you find the place after the snow has completely melted and the ground is completely dry in two days. food…”

As he spoke, he tightly wound the string in his hand around another green leafy vegetable that had been scooped by boiling water. In the bag beside the table is still a large pile of all kinds of vegetables, fruits, meat, etc. that he collected on the street during the day.

That’s right, the ingredients that Wei Xuan mainly collects today are all such things that are afraid of being put away, and once left in place and left unattended, they will soon smell bad and go bad.

It’s not that Wei Xuan is so environmentally friendly, nor is it that Wei Xuan has any special treasures such as space to store these things, but that once these things pass through the village, there will be no such store.

After the end of the world, plants will mutate, and the plants that were edible before will no longer be edible. Even if the crops are grown from seeds by plant supernatural beings, most of them will not attack humans like mutated plants. The taste is definitely enough for the individual.

There are indeed crops that can be eaten by humans after the end of the world, but there are only a few tasteless plants that taste the best. Not to mention meat—even if there are mutant beasts that can be eaten after the end of the world, they rarely appear in places where humans live, and the chances of people seeing them are far less than the chances of encountering zombies and zombie animals.

Therefore, at the beginning of the apocalypse, Wei Xuan just wanted to store as much as possible some vegetables, meat and other things that would soon go bad in a short period of time and could not be regenerated after the apocalypse, lest he would have nothing to eat —Even if he can grow edible mutated plants, it takes time for those things to grow, and he can’t just be so hungry during the waiting period.

All the vegetables were tied to the rope, and the strings were dried in the middle of the roof of the two-story building. The things placed in this position would not be seen by passers-by or the remaining residents in the nearby community.

Clean the fresh meat and cut it into strips and slices. After thoroughly rubbing with salt, it is also hung on the rope and placed on the roof to dry. In addition, there are some deli meats, sealed sausages and tofu, etc., which are also cut into small pieces and put on the roof to dry together.

The time these things can be stored after being dried in the sun is enough to ensure that Wei Xuan can keep food for a long time in the last days.

After Wei Xuan tried his best to process the vegetables and meat brought back, he began to silently mourn for those troublesome fruits for a while. Things like watermelon should not be kept for too long. Apples, grapes and other fruits can also be cut and dried and eaten as dried fruit. Some things that cannot be eaten even if they are dried can only be given up regretfully now.

In fact, if Wei Xuan can find a place that is absolutely safe and can be guaranteed to be completely free of people as a foothold, he even wants to take all the surrounding things that may rot, such as some food, corpses, garbage, etc. Throw it far away, otherwise when the coming June and July arrive, there will be a very “touching” smell in this city where sanitation workers no longer work.

At that time, the scene will definitely be sad to see, and those who “hear” will cry.

However, it is a pity that the city is too big and his strength alone is too small. Besides, if he was really in the mood to clean up the garbage in the city when the survivors in the whole city were trying their best to survive and escape… then it would be an act of death worthy of being struck by lightning.

It took a whole day to find some quilts, clothes and other things that can be used here temporarily from nearby shops. After Wei Xuan processed all the ingredients brought back today and dried them on the roof, the window and other places, he met them. Sitting at ease in the small nest piled up with the pile of quilts, frowning and looking at the map on the phone.

Beside him is Du Hang who is more familiar with him after going out all day and is used to following him. At this time, he seemed to be some kind of obedient and obedient creature, squatting obediently beside Wei Xuan, motionless.

With an oversized pillow leaning on his back, a blanket covering his body, and a soft and clean quilt under his body, the second day after the apocalypse in Wei Xuan’s life is obviously easier than any day in the apocalypse in the previous apocalypse Cozy.

Wei Xuan was thinking about something, looking at the map in his hand over and over again in thought, and after a while, he looked in the direction of Du Hang in a daze: “Our city is not small, like the small ones that specialize in vegetables that we visited today. There are many more meat shops, not to mention there are many large supermarkets and other places? It would be a pity not to go to those places, but if we really pass by, we can’t bring a lot of things here… “

Because luck is pretty good, today Wei Xuan took Du Hang out for a whole day without encountering a living person. This street is also relatively quiet, and no survivors pass by here. Of course, this is also because the most daring group of people all left their hiding places and left the city on the first day after the end of the world, and God knows how long the remaining, less courageous people will stay in their respective homes ?

But like today, he dragged Du Hang to the place where he was temporarily living to bring things without being found, but if he went out every day and carried things home with big bags, once someone found him, he would follow him It will be troublesome to find his temporary accommodation.

So, what to do with the fresh vegetables, meat, etc. that he wants to deal with, which are bound to be discarded by other survivors if they are scattered for a long time?

“Why don’t you just carry something like a rope with you, and deal with the things there every time you go?” Wei Xuan’s eyes suddenly lit up, he didn’t want to compete for those who can save their lives in the end times Precious food, such as instant noodles, canned food, biscuits, grain, etc. After all, even if those bold and organized supernatural beings and survivors could enter the urban area to collect supplies, they would definitely miss something. They generally enter urban areas and mostly target large supermarkets, grain storage points and other places.

But Wei Xuan is different, because of his supernatural ability, he can wait until there are no living people in the city, and go through empty doors to collect stored food. Although it was a bit troublesome, he was definitely faster, simpler and safer than those people in finding food.

What’s more, these food and other things can only be eaten at the beginning of the end of the world. Although the sealed ones can still be eaten next year, they can’t be counted on for a long time. Therefore, no matter how many of those things are collected, it is useless. It is better to leave those food cans and the like to the lucky and courageous survivors to make ends meet.

On the contrary, if you try to handle the fresh vegetables and meat you can collect as much as possible and put them in a relatively hidden place, you can collect these things one after another after the urban area is gradually abandoned by the survivors. Even if some of the food is discovered and taken away during the period, it will not have any impact on yourself.

“Although it’s a bit troublesome…but it’s not bad.” Thinking of this, the corners of Wei Xuan’s mouth slightly curved. Now that he has decided to live in this city, although he will also worry about some survival and food issues, he is much more relaxed and leisurely than others. What’s more, after the crops that can be germinated and cultivated that he deliberately left today really germinate, he can use the green belts in the city to plant crops that can be eaten in the last days.

In the early days of the end of the world, when it is impossible to attract the attention of others, it would be safer to take such relatively hidden actions. What’s more, wouldn’t it be more troublesome to hide all the things in one place if someone accidentally copied the old nest?

Conversely, if the whole city can be treated as one’s own land to store and grow things… This idea is wonderful, but it’s a pity that it is too troublesome to actually deal with it, so Wei Xuan plans to divide only a small area, which can improve and maintain his future. life is fine.

With a decision, the mood becomes relaxed again. Turning to look at Du Hang who has been obediently squatting beside him, he looked left and right at his face, then touched his chin: “I’ve been out for a long day today, at least I should wipe my face.”

Du Hang, who has become a half-zombie, can’t sweat or secrete anything. But after a day of tossing, I should wash up myself, just in time to help him clean up. After all, who knows when the water pipes will fail? If the water supply is cut off, they can only collect rainwater and bottled water to survive as in the previous life.
