Xia Zhi stood at the door of Diwozi and looked into the distance. A large reed swamp could be seen in the distance.

He saw Liu Qianjin standing next to him.

"Liu Zhiyan, you stay at home, Liu Qian and I will go get some firewood and come back.

You have to light up the fire wall at night, otherwise it will freeze tonight. "

"If you can clean it up, clean up the cave. If you can't, wait until I come back."

Xia Zhi didn't expect Liu Zhiyan, a semi-cripple, to be of much help. Not to mention that this was Miss Jiao, just saying that this person was hanging by such an arm and couldn't help a wounded person.

Liu Zhiyan became anxious upon hearing this.

"Can't I go with you? I can also collect firewood. I still have one hand I can use.

Don't leave me here alone, there are rats here. "

Xia Zhi glanced at the reeds in the distance and answered her quietly.

"There are wastelands everywhere here, and there will be wolves. Are you sure you want to go?

The reed swamp is very dangerous. I asked Liu Qian to follow me because he is big and strong. He can fight off two wolves with two sticks. Can you do that?

Are you going to feed the wolves or the mice? Do the math yourself! "

She didn't have time to protect this charming young lady, and the friendship between the two was not high enough to protect her regardless of her own safety.

When Liu Zhiyan heard this, she immediately wilted.

"And wolves?"

As soon as he asked this question, a wolf howled from a distance, although it felt far away.

But this cry definitely made the educated young man who was still talking nonsense immediately shut his mouth.

Many people with pale faces got into the dens in the ground. At least the dens could still defend themselves against the wolves.

Xia Zhi said nothing and waved to Liu Qianjin.

"Go forward, follow me."

Liu Qianjin followed Xia Zhi and obviously didn't care about whether the wolf was a wolf or not.

Liu Zhiyan ducked into the den, knowing that there were mice inside, but compared with the wolves, she suddenly wasn't that scared.

Thinking of Xia Zhi and Liu Qianjin risking their lives to find firewood, he couldn't just sit back and watch.

I had no choice but to roll up my sleeves, hold back my disgust, and start cleaning up the nest.

There were brooms placed behind the door for them to sweep down all the cobwebs on the eaves.

I scanned the wall again.

By the way, I took a broom and patted the straw on the floor.

Fortunately, no more mice emerged.

Worried about how to sleep on this straw?

But when she strained her ears and listened, she could no longer hear any movement outside. She looked at the time and saw that two hours had passed, and there was not even a shadow of the two of them.

Could it be that he really fed the wolves?

Just then I heard footsteps coming from outside.

"Liu Zhiyan, open the door for me."

As soon as she heard Xia Zhi's voice, Liu Zhiyan rushed over quickly. When she opened the door, she saw Xia Zhi walking in with a reed mat in her arms.

Following behind him was actually Zhou Zhengan.

Zhou Zhengan was wearing a khaki uniform, and the hat on his head was covered with reed strips.

"Okay, this reed mat has been brought to you. You can settle in today.

I'll send someone soon to ask you to go to the cafeteria for dinner. "

Zhou Zhengan didn't expect that he would probably not be able to bear the thought of seeing Diwozi here during the summer solstice.

He specially took two people to the reed swamp to weave two mats. He arrived three or four hours in advance.

So when Xia Zhi brought Liu Qian there, they happened to meet Zhou Zhengan.

Hearing that they were collecting firewood, Zhou Zhengan took them to their usual place without saying a word. It's safer here, and a lot of reeds have been cut around.

The winter here is very cold. Even if it is not needed today, it will be needed in the future. He did not expect that the summer solstice would be slow to adapt.

He actually dared to take Liu Qianjin alone to the reed swamp.

"Xia Zhi, you are too courageous. Aren't you afraid of meeting wolves here?"

Zhou Zhengan asked seriously while helping them cut down the dry trees.

"Even if Zhou Zhengan encounters a wolf, we still have to chop wood and go back.

Even if you don’t have a fever tonight, you still have to come tomorrow. Come late or early. "

Solstice moves quickly.

Although he was only holding a woodcutter in his hand, he was actually faster than Zhou Zhengan.

And it was very neat, cutting down the dead tree in front of me.

And cut it into a length suitable for carrying on the back.

Place the hemp rope on the ground and tie her and the dead branches that Zhou Zhengan cut together.

Seeing that Xia Zhi was about to carry the firewood on his back, Zhou Zhengan grabbed it.

“You, a woman, look more domineering than a man.

No wonder you are not afraid of wolves. "

Just watching Xia Zhi dance the hatchet twice, Zhou Zhengan was sure that Xia Zhi had probably practiced it twice.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but smile when she saw Zhou Zhengan put all three bundles of firewood on his back.

“If Zhou Zhengan is not more ruthless than a wolf here, will he be able to survive?

I made mental preparations before coming here and got to know the situation here, so I practiced a few times in advance. "

Zhou Zhengan sighed. It was the first time he saw a girl who looked a little thin, but she was so tenacious.

I adapt so quickly wherever I go.

"Let's go, this mat is made for you, one for you and one for Liu Qianjin."

Xia Zhi looked at it with a look of joy on his face and his eyes sparkling, making Zhou Zhengan feel as if he had done something great.

What he held in his hand was not a mat, but something like rice or pork.

"Comrade Zhou Zheng'an really wants to thank you, this is something we are really lacking now.

I originally thought of waiting until tomorrow to cut the reeds and weave two mats here.

Unexpectedly, you really think about what we think and worry about our needs. "

The earth platform is covered with straw, and of course it must be covered with mats, otherwise mice and insects will love to climb up.

"You can also weave mats?"

"Of course I can make it up. If I can't make it up, why should I cut reeds?"

It was during this question and answer that they returned to Diwozi, and the previous scene occurred.

Seeing the mat Zhou Zhengan brought in, Liu Zhiyan didn't react at all.

"Here, what is this for?"

Zhou Zhengan spread the mats for them on the pile of straw and patted them.

"Comrade Xia Zhi, I saw that you didn't have a quilt or mattress, and you finished your meal in a while.

Come with me. I have an extra bedding over there. You can take it. "

Zhou Zhengan was very attentive and could tell at a glance that Xia Zhi only had a small baggage and no bedding at all.

No matter what you do when you go out these days, you have to bring your own luggage.

There are no ready-made ones for sale, so if you don’t bring any luggage, you will have to freeze.

Xia Zhi heard this.

Only then did she realize that she was only thinking about other things and forgot about the bedding.

But I'm not being pretentious. It's such a cold day. If you don't cover yourself with a quilt at night, you can freeze to death.

Anyway, she could give the money to Zhou Zhengan and it would be considered as not taking advantage of Zhou Zhengan.

"Thank you then, Zhou Zhengan. I'll give you the money later."

Zhou Zhengan originally wanted to say no, but after taking a look at Liu Zhiyan, he swallowed his words.

If you have anything to say, please wait a while, he told Xia Zhi himself.
