doomed [last days]

Chapter 51 Life

The soybeans planted a few days ago have grown small seedlings, small and green, especially obvious on a piece of yellow land, Shi Yiran was delighted to see it.

After breakfast, Lin Shen and An Lu began to install solar water heaters on the roof.After it was installed, the water was on, and everyone sat around in the yard and began to discuss the safety of this small courtyard.

The chain lock that Lin Shen retrieved before was considered to be of the highest quality. It was hacked with an ax a few times yesterday, but there was no damage.But the courtyard wall is not very high. Those who came yesterday did not dare to climb over the wall, but it does not mean that those who came later did not dare.

"It's dangerous to say it's dangerous, but it's also safe to say it's safe." Shi Yiran was still sewing the roof that was not finished yesterday, and said, "Now let's find another place, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."

The mountains are safe and there are no zombies everywhere.But the mountains are also dangerous, and if you are a little careless, you may even die from a poisonous insect.So when Lin Shen and the others first came here, they sprinkled a ring of insect repellent powder on the outside of the wall, but now it's not insects that need to be guarded, but people.

"The ones who can find here must be people from the village under the mountain."

After hearing Lin Shen's words, Shi Yiran said, "The two yesterday should be from the village, but if there are still people coming in the future, it may not be so."

The location of the forest ranger station is still not concealed enough. The concrete road alone can attract people from all walks of life to go up the mountain to look for food.After all, who wouldn't want to check the house for food?

"Then shall we move?" Anlu's tone was a little unwilling. Although she had only lived here for a few days, she had already adapted to life here.Moreover, the solar energy was also installed, and the spring bed was also found. She moved as soon as she said, and she was unwilling.

Lin Shen shook his head, scratched on the ground with a dry branch, and said, "We definitely won't move it. Even if the so-called forest rangers come in the future, we won't move it. Just think about it, if someone else What to do when you come."

There will always be a day when the bullets run out, and when that day comes, and it happens to coincide with her absence, Lin Shen shudders just thinking about it.It's not that she doesn't believe in Shi Yiran's self-protection ability, but no matter how much she believes, it can't cover up her worries.

She thought about it, poked Anlu's foot with a branch, and asked, "Have you ever played chicken before?"

"Eating chicken?" Anlu was a little confused, "I've played it, but does it matter?"

"Just play it," Lin Shen said with a twitch of the corner of his mouth, "I'll go out to find something later, so you can find two small glass bottles, beer bottles, etc. at home, and then pull two strips of cloth... "

Before she finished speaking, Anlu realized: "Are you going to make a Molotov cocktail?!"

Lin Shen nodded, looked at Shi Yiran, and said, "Yiran, help him look at it and add some diesel into the glass bottle. We won't put it without thickener. After all, it's just to scare people."

Science students are best at this kind of thing.After hearing this, Shi Yiran nodded and said, "Then what are you going to find?"

"You'll know when I come back!"

Lin Shen kept her promise, got up and put her small wooden basket on her back after speaking, holding her long knife in her hand, explained a few words, got up and walked into the mountain.

Shi Yiran locked the iron gate, and came back only after the familiar figure disappeared into the forest.In the yard, Anlu had already found two glass bottles, holding them in his hands and staring at her blankly.

"Shurong," Shi Yiran looked at Meng Shurong who was sitting on the side, and said, "Sew up the roof first, and I'll help Anlu pour the diesel oil in."

It is indeed slower to sew by one person than by two, but at least there is something to do at hand.

Seeing that Meng Shurong responded, Shi Yiran followed Anlu to the kitchen.

"Sister Yiran, why do I feel that Sister Lin Shen knows everything?" Anlu put the glass bottle he brought in on the ground, watched Shi Yiran walk over with a funnel, and asked, "Is it because she is left-handed?" Ah, I've heard people say that lefties are smart."

Hearing others praise her lover, the corners of Shi Yiran's mouth curled up unconsciously: "She just goes to a lot of places. After running outside for a few years, she sees more and understands more."

Anlu became interested, and gossiped: "How many years have you been running outside? Isn't sister Lin Shen a doctor?"

She wanted to gossip about the relationship between the two of them, but she swallowed the question because she always felt a gloomy look in Shi Yiran's eyes.

One glass bottle was already filled with diesel oil. Shi Yiran picked up the funnel and put it into another glass bottle. Then she smiled and said, "After graduating from university, she went on a trip. She didn't become a doctor, so did I." I just met her again a month ago."

At that time, she was still a blind person who could not see anything.

"That's it..." An Lu responded, and didn't continue to gossip.

After filling the diesel oil, Anlu stuffed the cloth strip into the mouth of the bottle, wrapped it around, and finally made a simple burning bottle.Shi Yiran had already gone out, sewing the roof together with Meng Shurong.

After they all finished their lunch, Lin Shen's figure appeared outside the iron gate.

"What is this?" Shi Yiran asked while opening the door.

Lin Shen dragged a bunch of twigs into the door, and after she threw the twigs on the ground, she said with a smile, "That's a thorny elm, and the one over here is an elm tree. I'll drop the elm coins from it."

There are thorns on the branches of the thorny elm, which are like thin needles, and it hurts for a long time.

Lin Shen found it in a bush. She was looking for some thorny bushes. After seeing the thorny elm, she immediately cut off many branches.On the way back, she found another elm tree.

It stands to reason that eating elm money in March and April is now in May, and it may be a bit old to eat again.But Lin Shen stood on tiptoe and stuffed it into his mouth. The elm money he took in was crispy, sweet and refreshing, just as fresh and tender.Fortunately, this elm tree was not like the ones we had seen in the past. You had to go up to the roof to reach it. Lin Shen neatly broke off some branches and dragged them back to the forest ranger station along with the thorny elm.

After lunch, Shi Yiran followed Lin Shen's instructions and dropped elm coins from the branches with Meng Shurong.Lin Shen took An Lu together, spread out the branches of the elm, with the thorns facing upwards, and buried them outside the wall.

"It may not be very effective," Lin Shen looked at the thorns protruding from the dark ground, and said, "However, what if, maybe someone really wants to climb the wall at night."

At that time, no one will be able to see the thorns on the ground.Fortunately, most of the thorns of the thorny elm grow along the same side, which made it easier for Lin Shen to bury them.

Anlu looked at the dense thorns beside the wall. Although they were not very long, they were enough to pierce through the soles of shoes.She rubbed her arms, complaining that it didn't help much, if she stepped on it, she would definitely cry in pain.

It didn't take much time to bury a branch, so Lin Shen and An Lu went to the forest to cut down some suitable small trees, and planned to build a shed on top of the earthen stove after the roof was ready.The branches cut from the tree are placed in the corner, waiting to be dried and used as firewood.

Lin Shen is very busy, and today is the most tiring day for her.So, she was urged to take a shower first.

While she was taking a shower, Shi Yiran soaked the fallen elm money with water.After that, mix some flour, just like steaming rice, put it in the pot and steam it.After Lin Shen took a bath, Yuqian was also steamed.

They didn't have garlic, so they picked up a shallot, chopped it, mixed it with salt, sesame oil and vinegar, and poured a spoonful of it on the elm money.The scent of sesame oil mixed with the fragrance of elm money, a few people ate elm money, blowing the mountain breeze, feeling at ease.

After dinner, while Shi Yiran went into the room to take a shower, Lin Shen grabbed An Lu's neck and dragged her aside.

"Oh my, sister Lin Shen, what are you doing?!" An Lu was sitting next to Meng Shurong, accompanying the man who was looking up at the moon, when he was suddenly pulled away by Lin Shen, wishing he could bite him.

"Hush!" Lin Shen loosened his strength a little, and said in a low voice, "Anlu, do you want to find something to make up for your Shurong sister? How thin does she look?"

Hearing this, Anlu looked over, and happened to meet Meng Shurong, who was full of inquiring eyes.She blinked guiltyly, but she no longer resisted, and turned her head to sneak together with Lin Shen.

"How to make it up?"

When it comes to nourishing the body, she can only think of chicken soup and eggs.But in this barren mountains and mountains, where do the chickens come from, where do the eggs come from.

Although it is not impossible to catch a pheasant in the mountains, who knows if the game in the mountains has any virus on it, and if it has been in contact with some bats, it may not be able to recover after being caught. It's just a trick.

Lin Shen had thought of this a long time ago, she blinked, and said in a low voice: "If you want to make up for your sister Shurong, how about going down the mountain with me tomorrow to steal chickens?"

Speaking of stealing chickens, Lin Shen actually wanted to go to the village at the foot of the mountain to see if there were any domestic chickens still alive.If there are, bring a few of them up, it is best if they can lay eggs, if not, killing the stew can also nourish everyone's body.

Eating some wild vegetables every day, even if it is mixed with pork occasionally, she still feels that the nutrition is not enough.Now that life is slowly getting on the right track, and the problem of food and clothing has been solved, this person starts to greedily think about filling his mouth and nourishing himself.

"Stealing chicken?" An Lu squinted at her, as if infected by Lin Shen, and whispered, "Then why are you so sneaky?"

"If I say it directly, your sister Yiran will definitely not let us go."

"Did you let us go after you told me about Sister Yiran?" Anlu said, "I see, you just want to use me as a shield!"

Lin Shen glared at her, "Look at what you said, I want to find a good helper!"

She listened carefully to the sounds around her, and then took a sneak peek, and saw Meng Shurong behind him looking away, looking at the sky with an unpredictable expression, not knowing what he was thinking.Then he said again: "You will tell your sister Yiran tomorrow that the seedlings in the field will not grow well with only plant ash. Then let's go down the mountain to find fertilizer, and check if there are any chickens by the way."

This can only be convincing if Anlu, who has been growing up in the countryside, can say this.Although Lin Shen has seen a lot, he doesn't know how farmers pay attention to fertilizing the land.

Anlu thought for a while and replied, "That's fine."

After she finished speaking, she gave Lin Shen a sideways look, and continued to ask: "You are so active, you must also want to make up for sister Yiran."

"Anlu, my sister taught you a truth." Lin Shen paused, "For some things, it's good to know it in your heart, and it's embarrassing to say it."
