Chapter 44 - New harvest and new plan

“Chief, let the lower levels let go of planting crops, will it affect the base construction and foreign counterattacks?” Another person in charge of the base asked a question.

Shaking his head slowly, the chief sighed helplessly: “That has to be promoted as much as possible in the base, otherwise we can only count on the farmlands outside – not to mention the distance, once a large-scale zombie comes over our people must evacuate back to the base, the farmland is basically There is no way to take care of it. If all the farmland outside is trampled by zombies, won’t we still be doing nothing after working hard for a few months? Or find a way to expand the base and promote this kind of best-grown, subsistence crops. Only things can guarantee future rations.”

This situation has happened several times, especially when some survivors escaped from the surrounding areas to the base, and some teams that went to the city to do missions returned, they would always attract some zombies by the way, and some of them were killed by the base after the end of the world. The crops in those fields were trampled into a mess.

What’s more, no one can prove whether the crops grown in the places that have been trampled and killed by zombies will contain zombie virus? If there is, it will be troublesome, no matter how much food they plant in the farmland outside, they will not be able to be eaten by people!

—————

People living in the last days will always feel that every day feels like a year.

But because of reliving the first life and choosing another way of life that is completely different from the previous life, Wei Xuan in this life feels that his life is very leisurely.

Since the second strange snow fell, T City has ushered in a period of continuous rain for nearly a month.

During this period, the harvest period of the potatoes and carrots planted by Wei Xuan was forced to be pushed back. But what surprised him was—no wonder the base vigorously promoted these two crops in his previous life. Now, under such a long period of cloudy weather and continuous rainstorms, almost none of the mutated potatoes and mutated carrots that only need to grow and germinate are flooded. dead!

Just wait until the weather clears up and the autumn air is crisp, and they’ll be ready to harvest again!

Such a tenacious vitality is the glimmer of hope and vitality left to the surviving human beings in this world.

After confirming that the crops in the community would not be drowned by the rain, Wei Xuan, who was relieved, simply stayed at home. He once again sorted out the things in the homes of all the residents in the community.

Although he had wandered around all the rooms in the entire community before, and roughly collected all the firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, etc. that he needed into the same building, there were still a lot of things left. For example, furniture, clothing and electrical appliances in people’s homes.

Taking advantage of nothing to go out this time, Wei Xuan did a good job of tidying it up, and only after searching through did he find out—you don’t know if you don’t search carefully in this kind of community, but once you search carefully, you can really find a lot of good things!

Not to mention all kinds of commonly used furniture and electrical appliances, in addition to the necessities of life, he also found a lot of things for leisure and entertainment this time. There are a few gigabytes of various entertainment content in other people’s hard drives…Of course, even if Wei Xuan finds pornographic movies, he is not very interested. After all, he is gay, and he only likes men since before the end of the world. To him, it was no different from watching the clouds rise and disperse outside.

But wouldn’t someone else’s computer only have pornography? Shenma TV series, movies, animations, entertainment variety shows, etc., although you can watch everything online these days, there is no need to download it to your own hard drive, and there is no way to download it from many websites. There are a few households where technical nerds live. Not only do they have a few hard disks full of various resources, but they also have burning discs from years ago, even more than ten years ago! Of course, he also found various types of game consoles and game discs in this family’s home.

With such a great harvest, Wei Xuan, who didn’t go to someone’s bedroom to check carefully when he came last time, was overjoyed. He directly carried this pile of things and put them in the room where he lives now. He can count on these things when he doesn’t have to go out in the rainy days recently. Time to pass the time.

In addition, he also found a few households doing online shopping in this community, and a family with a two-dimensional house—all kinds of hand-made models are placed all over the house, and as soon as you enter the door, you will find a life-sized Gundam of a certain model.

It’s a pity that those few online shopping businesses sell women’s clothing, accessories and even DIY handicrafts, which are of no use to Wei Xuan. And he just took a look at the handicrafts in that house, and when he left, he kindly helped the family close the door. I picked up some games that don’t look like butter for girls, and I plan to try them out at my home when I go back.

Although he has collected a lot of games, movies and TV, it is a pity that the weather has been very bad recently, and Wei Xuan didn’t get many solar panels in the early days of the end of the world, so he didn’t dare to use the computer crazily, turn on the TV and play games . After all, at the beginning of the end of the world, he didn’t expect that he would still have time to play games under such a difficult situation, didn’t he?

“Hey, after a while, we have to go out and look for more solar panels.” Looking at the bright starry sky outside the window, Wei Xuan began to sigh. As a modern person, he has already gotten used to it. The convenience brought by electric energy, if possible, he will subconsciously think of the simplest and most trouble-free solution when doing certain things, that is, to use various convenient electrical appliances – even if he has lived enough in the last days It can’t be changed for three years.

That is to say, in this life, he is in the city, and he can still find solar panels to use electricity. Otherwise, back in the previous life…

No, wait.

A gleam of light flashed in Wei Xuan’s mind. In his previous life, in the third year of the end of the world, a conversion device using energy cores had been developed in the base. That kind of device can convert the energy in the zombie crystal nucleus and make it into crystal nucleus lamps and other things.

Although this type of device was just emerging at the time, it caused a sensation in the entire base, and even all survivor bases that could still get in touch!

Converting crystal nucleus energy into crystal nucleus lamps is only the first step. If those scientists continue to study hard, then there may be energy fans, energy TVs, and even… energy weapons in the near future.

Yes, since what is contained in the crystal nucleus is a kind of energy, then they are bound to be able to be manufactured into various types of weapons. Once humans have mastered this method, humans with new weapons will definitely hunt and kill zombies on a large scale, harvest the crystal nuclei in their brains, and create more powerful weapons, and then put them into this In a “war”.

However, the zombies have also increased their ability to fight individually due to the gradual strengthening of their bodies, thus launching a counterattack against the human army… If this continues, what will the earth look like in the future?

Looking at the endless starry sky, Wei Xuan suddenly fell into a kind of inexplicable sadness—melancholy for human beings and the world.

He is just a small person, after he is reborn, he just wants to stay with Du Hang forever, but if the future world really becomes what he speculates, where can he live?

“Oh…forget it, let’s do what love is.” Wei Xuan stood up suddenly, drove all these things out of his mind, turned around and took Du Hang’s hand that had been standing silently beside him, ” Let’s go, let’s go to bed!”

Through this collection, Wei Xuan not only harvested a bunch of games and hard drives, but also found many convenient and practical utensils. For example, the bread machine in a certain home, although he can’t use it to make bread, but it is much better for kneading dough than the one he kneaded by himself, coupled with the hand-cranked dough he found from another Machine, just can be used to make noodles, noodles.

It’s a pity that these things are all big consumers of electricity, and Wei Xuan can’t use them happily in the days of continuous heavy rain and light rain.

So, after the weather finally cleared up and most of the accumulated water outside evaporated, Wei Xuan immediately decided to leave the base again and find solar panels!

He had visited the nearby Home City once in the early days of the last days, but there was a bigger one a little farther away. It’s just that the home city is further north, and its area is much larger than the one he’s been to before.

Bringing the potatoes that were harvested when the weather was still sunny a few days ago and put them into sprouts, they carried their backpacks, hats, masks, and coats, and the two of them walked out of the gate of their community again when they were all ready to go .

Wei Xuan’s destination this time is the north of the urban area. Although he would leave the urban area of T City if he walked further north, Wei Xuan did not find any signs of survivors operating in that area before, so he mixed in cautiously. Among the wandering zombies, carefully bypass puddles and sundries.

All the way to the north, the zombies outside were still the same as before. As long as no humans appeared and there was no sound that could attract their attention, they would wander around blankly.

Wei Xuan didn’t go too far to the north before, and this time he came here to check the surrounding situation and check whether there is a survivor base nearby.

After a few heavy rains, the dilapidated buildings made the ground more potholed and difficult to walk on. Fortunately, Wei Xuan has adapted to the broken road conditions in this post-apocalyptic city. As long as there is no traffic jam, it will take a few hours to wait, no matter how difficult the road is. Walking, as long as it is a place that can be walked by his personal physique, he will not find it difficult – but it is just walking more than usual.

After walking to a place he had never been to before in the last days, Wei Xuan started to plant his potatoes along the way—he couldn’t see potatoes in several other directions, but let this side alone Bar? What’s more, he only planted half a plant after walking around, and it didn’t take much trouble.
