Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

After returning to Xiaoxi Village, Zhang Youfan immediately organized the villagers to hold a meeting in the village committee compound, with one person from each household.

Around five o'clock in the evening, the setting sun gradually appeared from the clouds. In only about an hour, the sun would set. After half past six, the entire Xiaoxi Village would be shrouded in darkness without electricity.

In front of the village committee compound is an area of ​​several hundred square meters, where a large crowd of people, about seventy or eighty people, stood.

Zhang Youfan held a loudspeaker in his hand and emphasized discipline several times before mentioning the situation in the mountains today.

At first, no one believed the talk of monsters, but when Liu Dawei's body covered with white cloth was carried up, everyone fell silent.

Liu Dawei's family members cried heart-wrenchingly and even cursed at him with all kinds of ugly words, all of which were suspicions that Liu Dawei's death was caused by human factors.

So when the angry relatives lifted the white cloth, they were horrified to find that Liu Dawei's body was torn into two pieces. No matter how you looked at it, the tear marks did not look like they were caused by a blunt object or a knife. Moreover, there were many claw marks on his body, each of which was deep enough to see the bone.

The crowd stepped back several steps at once, especially the villagers who originally wanted to watch the fun. They covered their mouths and several of them vomited on the spot.

Even Liu Dawei's relatives were unwilling to look at the body again. His wife and children collapsed on the ground, staring blankly at the already incomplete body, and immediately fainted out of fright.

Zhang Youfan frowned and asked someone to cover the body with white cloth again. The body would then be sent back to Liu Dawei's home so that they could be responsible for the burial arrangements.

Seeing that the crowd had quieted down, Zhang Youfan mentioned that people should not go into the mountains in the near future. He also mentioned that there might be a beast tide in the near future. He advised everyone not to act alone and not to go out casually, especially at night. It is best to lock the windows and doors of the house tightly.

The village will also temporarily set up a night watch team, which will be composed of about 30 adult men, divided into three teams, from 8 pm to 5 am, nine hours in three shifts. The villagers in the three shifts will gather according to the time and patrol the village together.

Three hours is actually only enough for about three patrols, and they must be in a group of ten. After all, Zhang Youfan and others have encountered mutants head-on and know that the thing can easily tear a person apart. Once the number of people is reduced, it will be difficult to subdue this thing.

As for the road leading into the back mountain, Zhang Youfan suggested that all the adult men in the village unite and try to find something to build a barrier, even if it is simple, to at least temporarily prevent those things from going down the mountain.

But if people are not allowed to enter the back mountain, the demand for charcoal and firewood will become tense.

The most important thing in the extremely cold weather is firewood. Xiaoxi Village is located in the south, and every household has no habit of storing coal. Therefore, in the past few days of extreme cold, the demand for firewood has increased. If we stop using it, we don’t know if we will freeze to death at home.

In fact, in addition to the back mountain, there is a large orchard about ten kilometers away from Xiaoxi Village. It was bought by a private farmer before. After the natural disaster, no one has taken care of the orchard. Some villagers who have been there before said that there is nothing left in the orchard of hundreds of acres except bare branches.

Therefore, firewood can be obtained from there, but one has to walk 20 kilometers back and forth every day. Although every household has a tractor or motorcycle, the gasoline is not enough for several days.

Even so, firewood is still indispensable, so every morning before seven o'clock you can see groups of people setting out for the orchard.

After returning home that night, Gu Tongwan took off her clothes to check and found that a large piece of the shoulder of her stab-proof suit was rotten. However, her shoulder was fine, and there were only bruises on her body from multiple falls or collisions.

She deliberately placed those strange flowers a few meters away from Aoao and Tutu, wanting to know how the two would react to the flowers, and also wanted to know whether these flowers could hurt the two dogs.

As a result, Tutu, who was pretending to be asleep, just glanced at the flower and stopped looking at it, while Aoao, who was a lively person, thought it was something fun. Before Gu Tongwan could say anything to stop him, she jumped over and slapped the whole flower, crushing it into mud.

Gu Tongwan: “…” Whose silly dog ​​is this?

It seems that this flower has no effect on them at all. Perhaps Aoao and Tutu have just evolved physically, which is different from the mutations of mutants.

That night, Gu Tongwan took out the remaining wooden strips from the previous renovation in the yard. Fortunately, they had not been burned as firewood before, and now they could be put to use.

By reinforcing several windows with wooden strips, they can be made to look like simple anti-theft windows.

Although Aoao and Tutu are guarding the house, it is still necessary to be on the safe side and reinforce the house as much as possible so that she can sleep more peacefully at night.
