Chapter 557

Old John's house was a bit shabby. It was a small wooden house built on four big trees. The wooden house is about five meters away from the ground, and the ladder is a three section folding ladder that can be folded up from above.

People in the village seem to feel that they can sleep at ease only when they leave the ground, so they built such a suspended village.

After Benita was invited into the house, old John was a little stiff. There was nothing in the house to entertain distinguished guests, which made him feel very impolite.

Benita saw old John's embarrassment and said with a kind smile to a family of three:

"as your life-saving benefactor, I feel very good to accept your warm hospitality. Thank you for bringing me to visit such a unique suspended building."

Katrina smiles sweetly, and then says, "this was built by my father, but he went to heaven! I haven't heard from him all the time. My grandfather said it was because the postman might have become a zombie! Damned doomsday

Katrina's last sentence imitates the tone of old John. A four-year-old girl imitates an old man who is nearly seventy years old. It looks very funny. But Benita didn't laugh. She just nodded at Old John, touched Katrina's head with her hand and said, "I think God will eventually send a new postman to deliver your letter, but he may be busy in the last days, so he didn't find the time to do such a thing! But it is always a good thing to wait with hope. Little Katrina, you can also observe the people around you to see if there are postmen from heaven! I heard that the postmen there are kind-hearted, like to help others, but also have the ability to protect the weak! If you meet someone like this, you can follow him and ask him if he has any letters from heaven that belong to your father

Katrina, with her eyes wide open, raised her head to Benita and asked, "does he have wings? I mean, is the postman of heaven an angel? "

Benita didn't answer Katrina. She didn't want to talk too much about heaven with this lovely little girl! The world has been reduced to hell, and girls of Spanish origin do not believe that heaven really exists.

"All right! I'm just a passer-by, and I have a very important thing to return to my hometown, Houston! Now that I have accepted your invitation to visit here, it's not impolite to want to leave! "

Old John frowned and said, "beautiful girl! Houston is thousands of miles away from here. It's on the other side of the continent. It must be full of crises, isn't it

Benita nodded with a smile and said, "yes! I have to go back! At the beginning of the last life, I came to this place because I wanted to help a friend! Now two years, I think it's time for me to go back! I'm going home to see if my man came to me. He was in eastern China before the outbreak of the great disaster. I don't know if he has come back! "

Old John said with regret: "China... Is too far away! I hope he can come back! Beautiful lady, before you leave, please let me do something for you to express my thanks to you

Benita said no in a hurry, but old John insisted that he could not accept Benita's favor in vain.

Finally, Benita thought about it for a long time and said, "OK! There is one thing you can do for me

...

thirty minutes later, Benita, together with the three grandsons of old John, entered the courtyard wall of an abandoned residential area in the east of Williamsburg.

The wall is higher than that of other nearby courtyards, about five meters long, and there is a power grid above the wall.

The space in the courtyard is very large. There is a vegetable garden behind the three connected houses.

As she led the way, Benita said, "it's safe here. There are few zombies around. Because there are so many houses here, as long as you are careful, you won't be easily found by outsiders. That is to say, if you want to turn on the light at night, you'd better close all the curtains. "

Old John asked strangely, "is there any electricity to use here?"

Benita nodded with a smile, did not answer old John's question, but took them on the tour.

"This room is a warehouse, with about 60 square meters of space.

But it has a 300 square meter underground warehouse full of food and daily necessities, which my friends and I have collected and stored in the past two years, enough for your grandparents and grandchildren to eat for a few years. The land behind is very fertile, and there are seeds of various crops in the warehouse. If you plant the land, then I think maybe you can survive in this place all the time. "

Old John was a little shocked.

"So much food, won't it rot in the warehouse? Although deteriorated food can also be eaten, if it rots... "

Benita said," don't worry, there are refrigeration and fresh-keeping equipment in it, so the food can be preserved for a long time. "

Without waiting for old John to respond, Benita showed him around the other two rooms.

There are all kinds of equipment here, and all the electrical equipment can be used, that is to say, there is electricity here.After visiting every corner of the room, Benita finally said:

"isn't it strange why these three rooms are so special?

In fact, this was originally a laboratory of CI. The water and electricity of this house have separate lines, the water comes from underground, and the electricity is more complex.

There are many windmill generators within ten miles of here, and the energy they harvest can be transmitted to the power distribution equipment in the room through underground pipelines.

And the top of the house, in fact, are made of special materials of high intensity solar panels, they collect the energy of the sun will also be converted into electricity into distribution equipment.

The construction of this house contains a lot of high-tech technology before the end of the world. I'm not sure, because I'm not a staff member of CI organization after all.

Mr. John, since you want to repay me, I'm not welcome.

I hope you can stay here for a long time, and then help me take care of the electricity in this room. I will give you some instructions and tell you some precautions, so that you can know how to maintain the electrical equipment here! My request is not to cut off the power here, but to keep it in a state of power all the time. If you can help me to do this, it's really a big help! "

Old John saw that Benita's face was solemn, and he nodded after a little consideration.

After all, there is so much food here, which is a huge fortune for the people in the last days.

But why does Benita want him to look after the electricity here? What is the so-called CI organization for?

Benita was grateful to see old John agree and said, "thank you so much! Ah, originally we had three people here, I and two CI staff. But some time ago, an accident happened, which led to the death of both CI staff members! But you can rest assured that the accident has been relieved, and there should be no similar danger here. "

The little boy, Jakes, seemed to like Benita very much. He clenched his fist and said, "Benita, don't worry! I will help you guard this place with my grandfather! Because I will grow up quickly, from a child to a man with eight abdominal muscles

Not to be outdone, cortrina exclaimed, "Well! I will also help to guard here! "

Benita is very happy to smile, she likes these two children more and more.

Old John obviously thought more. He asked the most important question.

"Beautiful lady, I'd like to help you with this, and I don't want to know why. But how long do we need to be here? "

The expression on Benita's face became dim. After thinking about it for a while, she said:

"well, it depends on what you mean! It's better to be able to guard for a few years, but if you are in danger, you can give up this place at any time.

Because... I was supposed to guard here, and I have planned to leave. I can't selfishly let you stay here instead of me.

Well, there's no secret. It's just a matter for a Chinese friend of mine to get rid of me. It's a pity that I couldn't help her... "

Old John didn't understand what Benita said, but seeing that Benita seemed to be in a bad mood, he quickly interrupted her and said," Hmm! Beautiful lady, you don't need to explain too much to me. Since you have saved the lives of our grandparents and grandchildren, we should repay you! Don't worry, as long as it's not a crisis to the lives of my two children, old John will always be here until he dies. Then, will you come back? "

Benita nodded gratefully and said, "maybe she will come back, maybe not. After returning to Houston, if my man did not go to me, I can only understand that he has become a zombie or died in the end. Then, I should start my new life! It seems that the end of the world will never stop, but those of us who live will still live, won't we

Old John nodded and agreed with Benita.

Next, Benita took old John's grandparents and grandchildren to walk around the house a few times, telling old John about the use and repair of all the equipment.

After all this, Benita simply said goodbye.

The sun had risen. Old John, holding the hands of Jakes and Katrina, stood in the yard and looked at the house in front of him. He was full of curiosity and didn't know what secret it was hiding. But it didn't take long for this curiosity to be replaced by other emotions.

"Let's go, two little guys, and follow my grandfather to see how much food beautiful Benita has prepared for us! I hope there's whiskey in it, ha ha!
