food crisis [end times]

Most of the traps are sharpened with wood below and placed in deep pits.Three layers of traps were set up in a circle outside the village.This ensures that every animal can fall into the trap outside.There is a small path in the middle of each floor to ensure that people can walk in the middle of each floor and deal with the zombie animals inside to prevent them from being full.

As for these zombie animals, there is no way to burn them after they are dead. The main reason is that there are too many and there is not so much fuel.Firewood is reluctant, and gasoline is a luxury.Therefore, a lot of deep pits were dug around the village, and every zombie animal was chopped up and buried in it.

After working for a month, everyone's traps were fixed.Then, the village began to gather bricks and cement again, to build a strong enough wall inside the trap and around the village!

Most of the houses in rural areas are self-built.Bought red bricks and built it myself.Since it is a self-built house, it is impossible to determine the amount of all bricks.There must be some left over.Bring these together.And those stones that can be used to build walls.

But even so, gathering all the households in the village that can be used, if the village is surrounded, it may be less than [-] centimeters.

After all, it is a large village with thousands of people. In the past, people could still move to the village and be less surrounded.But since the immigration was opened, the village is almost full after the influx of people from other villages.Concentration is also not displayed.

But without the fence, the mutated animals outside would be a big trouble!

The village committee began to mobilize from house to house, demolishing the dispensable buildings in the house first, and throwing bricks and tiles into the construction of the fence.

Right now, the whole village is one big family!Only everyone is better!Everyone can be good!To help everyone is to help yourself!

The sense of crisis of the mutated animals hung over the village, and the villagers also began to think about what they didn't need at home.

Some dilapidated houses that are really uninhabitable must be easy to demolish, so that you can have a lot of bricks.

Some families demolished the livestock pens, and several large pig raising households demolished the pig pens.Anyway, I can't keep it now, and I guess I won't be able to in the future.

Others demolished the warehouse.Anyway, the sundries that need to be piled up now are no longer needed.

There are also dog kennels.

There are also some families, because the government has given iron fences to separate each house, but some people still keep the brick and stone walls, and they have also been demolished.

In this way, when everyone is desperately collecting building materials, although the collected materials are quite large, it is still very difficult to surround the village.

At present, all the bricks can be a little over one meter at most, and no one can guard against them. If they encounter mutant animals with strong jumping ability, they will not be able to do so at all.

In the hearts of the villagers, the one that can bring enough sense of security must be at least three meters high.

Also, the walls must be thick enough.It can't fall down when the wind blows.

In this way, more materials are needed.

But the original primary school in the village has been demolished, and the residential houses will be demolished again, which is outrageous.

The village was nowhere to be found.Then you can only find it from the outside.Or make kiln fired bricks yourself!

Because all the houses in the village are self-built, it is natural to know where there are brick kilns.The People's Liberation Army drove there first, but returned disappointed.

There is no other reason, there are no bricks in the brick factory.

It has long been expropriated by the government above.The village uses bricks, and the government needs to use bricks to protect the people who have finally gathered together.

Not much else.

The village was full of ideas. Some people said that using mushroom bags to exchange bricks with other villages, and some people said that going to the city to dismantle reinforced concrete blocks can also be used as bricks.In short, opinions vary.

In the end, I don’t know who said something, if there is no one in the brick factory, why try to burn bricks by yourself?Maybe you can find someone who understands around the brick factory.Even if no one understands, find clay and try to burn it yourself.Don't be too successful, as long as it works!

In the old days, mud bricks made of yellow mud and straw were used to build houses.It's definitely stronger when it's burned.

There was no other idea in the village at the moment.

Go to the brick factory and ask around, and then go to the nearby building materials market to have a look.What can be used has long been expropriated by the government.

If the village still wants to use bricks, they can only find a way by themselves.

If you can't find talents, it's a fool's dream to want good quality red bricks.However, if the source of raw materials can be found, it is still no problem to make clay bricks and burn simple clay bricks.

I used to watch videos on the Internet, even a simple stove built with earth can burn it, and it is not a problem to have a ready-made brick kiln.

The whole village spent several days just discussing the issue of burning bricks, and finally arranged three methods that they thought were reliable, and then two new problems came.

What about clay and kiln coal?

This must never be collected from the village. If the village really donates all the coal for the winter, then this winter will be impossible.

The People's Liberation Army first helped to contact the higher authorities to see if they could approve a batch of coal-fired bricks.The official bricks were not given, but [-] tons of coal were approved.

There is coal here. Although it is a city away, the cost of transporting it here is not particularly high.Coal mines resumed production a few days ago, mainly to prepare for this winter.

All other things in the country have stopped, and the only thing to be concerned about right now is the most basic livelihood issue.

Twenty tons of coal is a lot.But this is personally.

But if you burn bricks, these are equivalent to a drop in the bucket.

However, although it is impossible to burn bricks in a large area, it is completely possible to use the method of burning bricks for experimentation.

First see which method burns out the highest quality coal.

The young men in the village alternated shifts to go to the brick kiln to try to burn bricks, and they calculated every step in an orderly manner.

Some people are in charge of guarding to prevent zombie animals from attacking, and some people make mud embryos, add fuel, watch the fire at any time, and determine when to do something.

There is still a part of clay left in the brick factory, which is enough to use in the early stage.

Xiang Luo was the first batch to come here. This is nothing more than sifting the clay first, and then making it into a brick-sized brick and drying it in the shade.

After the clay was sifted, Xiang Luo carefully thought about the details of the online video he watched before, and found the elder in charge of this matter, and said: "I watched the video before, and I would grind up the pieces I made before and put them in the mud. It is said that this The quality of the burnt out is better."

If someone else said this, the uncle in charge would definitely think it was nonsense, but it was Xiang Luo who said this.

At present, Xiang Luo has a very high reputation in the village, and it can even be said that every household is full of food because of him.

So no matter how virtuous and respected, the uncle also smiled and said: "You must have your own reasons for saying that. But don't do it all, let's try a little first, if the effect is really good, let's continue to do it!"

Xiang Luo also felt that this made sense, nodded and said, then draw a circle to mark all the things I made with this method, and make a comparison at that time.

It takes a few days for the brick to dry in the shade after being shaped with mud.

In order to avoid other bad things from happening, recently every day the brick factory has villagers stationed 24 hours a day.Fortunately, the brick factory is relatively closed, only the front door and the back door can be entered and exited, and the surrounding area is a bit underground because of the terrain. At night, everyone hides in the original dormitory of the employees here, and there is no danger.

Xiang Luo feels that the recent days have been a bit muddled. Suddenly, zombie animals broke out, and zombies broke out again in the village.Now that Brick is settling outside the village for the first time after the apocalypse, thinking of his daughter-in-law, he understands the mood of those men who went out to work to make money.

What if a little girl hooks up with Zhu Yan?

He is crooked.

But what if a little boy hooks him up?

Xiang Luo also knew that his thoughts were ridiculous.But such random guesses are also part of missing him.

I really miss him.

I stayed for two nights in a row, although I used the bedding brought by my family, but I got used to sleeping on the bed, and the big kang in the brick factory became a bit hard.

On the fifth day, the shift began.

After all, most people can't sleep well when they are outside.Five days is almost the limit. If it takes longer, accidents will easily happen if people start to slump.

When Xiang Luo returned home, the village had to change a group of people to take it up.Zhu Yan took the initiative to sign up.

Xiang Luo thought about Zhu Yan for five days, and ran away before he could make out with his loved ones.As a result, Xiang Luo gritted his teeth and re-prepared Zhu Yan's luggage and daily necessities. When he was waiting to give it away, he was still full of worries.

In fact, when he prepared his luggage, he was rough, and he couldn't sleep well when he went out of the house.He was also afraid that since he was used to Zhu Yan being around, it would be outrageous to harass the people next to him if he fell asleep at night.

But preparing for his wish, Xiang Luo wanted to move his family there.

Seeing Xiang Luo's busy schedule, Zhu Yan couldn't help laughing: "I'm not moving, just five days, do you need it?"

"Even if you can use it once in these five days, it's not in vain." Xiang Luo thought for a while, "Why don't I get you a mosquito net to separate you from them. You don't know, they don't take a bath for a year or two. Don’t mention how smelly your body is, you don’t feel it during the day, and the smell can bury you when you lie down at night when you sleep. Let me bring you a nasal spray, so you don’t get fainted by the smoke. Stay with the wet wipes, there is no water now , The work there is still dirty, and you can't wash your hands at any time, so you can just make do with it. I still have perfume here, do you want to bring some. "

Zhu Yan didn't speak this time, listening to Xiang Luo busying himself around like a little daughter-in-law made his heart warm.

The more Xiang Luo thought about it, the more reluctant he was, and he said helplessly, "Why don't you go, it's dirty. You are not a person who can do dirty work."

Zhu Yan only sneered: "Which eye of yours doesn't look like me?"

Seeing that his mouth was stiff, Xiang Luo said, "It's really nothing, it's just living mud to play with, we can play at home, or if I piss on you and the mud, maybe we can burn bricks at home."

Zhu Yan raised his leg and went over to Xiang Luo to hide for a while: "I'm fine."

Zhu Yan is not so squeamish.What's more, when he came here, Zhu Yan had already made all the preparations.

He also didn't want to lock himself in this small yard, ignorant of the outside world.

Even crouching dragons and phoenix chicks are easy to watch the sky from a well.

Although it is only a small brick kiln, at least it is going out with everyone.

Even if it's more of a sense of presence.

Xiang Luo turned around and tidied up for him silently. He felt aggrieved when he thought of staying alone in the empty room for five days after people left.People haven't completely eaten it yet.

This little heartless person is really willing to spend ten days in bed.

When everything was ready and he was about to leave, Xiang Luocai finally put away his careless thoughts, and said to Zhu Yan with a suppressed voice: "I know you are smart, and I know your temper. But outside, if you meet outsiders, Don't get ahead easily. People in this world are confused. As long as you don't hit us in the face, don't worry about it so much."

This is the truth that Xiang Luo wanted to understand after living in the village for a long time.

Zhu Yan was carrying luggage that was taller than him, and gave Xiang Luo a supercilious look.

Looking at Zhu Yan's footsteps that were obviously a little slower, Xiang Luo tilted his head and watched him get on the tractor, and secretly reflected in his heart, whether his preparation was a bit too much.

This time around the same period, Zhu Yan's stuff was the most exaggerated.The people in the same company couldn't help teasing him: "You are moving there!"

It's hard to say that Zhu Yan was prepared by Xiang Luo, so he could only say helplessly, "I haven't lived in the village before, so I don't know the situation."

In fact, it is understandable.Everyone in the village has heard that Zhu Yan was originally the young master of a rich family. He was here before because he was trapped here when there were zombies.

It's just that the chaos at the beginning has been going on for some time now, so why didn't you think about leaving?And the family didn't find it.

Or what happened at home?

No matter what, Zhu Yan, a pampered young master, can go to work in the brick factory with them. In fact, this child is not bad.

Nowadays, many children who grew up in rural areas are as delicate as little emperors, unable to carry on their shoulders or hands.What's more, Zhu Yan was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

Because Zhu Yan brought a lot of things, his bed was a little bigger by default.There is also a place to put his stuff.

When Zhu Yan arrived, he knew why Xiang Luo stopped him. The environment was indeed far beyond comparison at home.

And if it's at home, Xiang Luo can think about everything.In terms of serving him comfortably, Xiang Luo should not be too delicate.

Although he still works, the working environment is the treatment that only top workshops had in the past.

After making his own bed, the whole room was a little nervous when they first arrived, and they started chatting together.Zhu Yan was sitting on his bed, listening to them with great interest.

"Recently, the sons of Lao Zhang and the fourth family have found a good partner, and the girl from Li Laohai's family has also found a good man. There are eight happy events in this evil month, and they are all getting married together." One thirty The next-year-old man sighed, his partner has not been settled yet.

"Envy it! If you're envious, do it well and add more mushrooms." A man in his 40s with sons and daughters next to him joked.

"It's not so easy to find." The man turned his head and glanced at Zhu Yan, "You see, he needs conditions and a body, why didn't he look for it?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone became interested.An old man in his fifties looked at Zhu Yan carefully: "Little Zhu, why haven't I seen you chatting with someone's girl? Are you looking down on me or are you shy and embarrassed?"

Zhu Yan didn't expect to mention himself, and only said: "I have a partner. But I'm not in a hurry to get married."

The uncle was startled: "Whose girl?"

Zhu Yan smiled: "The left and right are from the village."

I don't know who came to say: "Is your house diagonally opposite the door?"

Zhu Yan shook his head: "Stop guessing."

Another person said: "If you want me to say no. Didn't that little girl say that she grew up with that kid Xiang Luo? After all, she is also a childhood sweetheart. And Xiang Luo asked Uncle Li to help sell fungus bags. Isn't this just for his own family? Father-in-law, are you at ease?"

This statement is definitely not the only one at the moment.It's something that the whole village has almost tacitly accepted.

Zhu Yan was speechless, feeling a little panicked.

One of them smiled and said to Zhu Yan: "You live in Old Xiang's house, haven't you heard when they will get married? I'm still waiting for the wedding wine."

Zhu Yan actually didn't want to speak.Although he knew that nothing would happen to them, he still felt uncomfortable when it came to Xiang Luo.

But thinking about it again, it's not good if such rumors spread too widely.Xiang Luo is okay, but it's not good to delay the little girl.In case someone is in a hurry to find her husband's family, wouldn't such rumors deter those interested suitors?

"Don't listen to the rumors in the village, how can this happen? Li Yueyue doesn't come to my house very often. She is usually Uncle Li. I have never heard Xiang Luo mention that little girl. I remember that she seems to be very powerful, and she will be the master of the house in the future. He must be someone who can handle it." Zhu Yan had considered these words.

Neither too ambiguous nor too casual.

Someone joked: "Then why don't you want it?"

Zhu Yan only smiled and said, "If I hadn't found a partner, maybe I would have considered it. But it all depends on fate, who knows what kind of person they can look at."

Having said that, there is actually nothing more to say.

Zhu Yan had been on guard patrol before, and the villagers had some impressions of him. Even if they weren't very familiar with him, they knew what kind of temper he was.

People are smart and know how to do things, such people will not be too embarrassing.

Then, while it was still dark, we went to the yard together to get acquainted with what to do in the next few days.

At the same time, I also exhort and exhort ten thousand to pay attention to safety.In case there are mutated animals, they must be called out first, and then we will deal with them together.Don't leave the crowd, even go to the toilet near the crowd!

There is not a single woman here, and they are all gentlemen who don't pay much attention.

Zhu Yan looked at the circled experimental adobe made by Xiang Luo, reached out to touch it, and thought it sounded cute.

Then his subsequent task is to wait for these semi-finished bricks to dry completely before sending them to the kiln for firing.

Burnt bricks are not as good as ceramics, and you need to worry about cracks, as long as they come out not broken very badly, it is a good brick if it can be used!

At the same time, the village is not idle. The existing stones and bricks are the same, and they are all built around the village. The wall is covered by one centimeter, which makes me feel more at ease.

It's a pity that there is no quarry nearby, and the nearest one is in the next door city.Moreover, most of the currently usable ones have been requisitioned by the authorities, so it is not likely that so many people will go all the way to the quarry in the next city to dig with hoes.This is not as reliable as burning bricks.

It was getting late, and I watched the sun cast a rainbow in the sky.

It's even more dangerous after dark.When he was about to organize everyone to go back to the dormitory, a car stopped outside the door.

The people here didn't pay attention at first, but after a while, the door was knocked loudly.

An impatient voice sounded from outside: "Who are you! What are you doing here!"

The person in charge of this side was terrified when he heard the movement, and he was also afraid that something would happen. He took a few people and walked there, with a smile on his face: "Where are you guys from?"

"Are you from there?" There were also seven or eight people standing outside, all tall and big men.Those who can come out these days are basically tall and strong.

The person who spoke had a mustache, but he should not be very old, his eyebrows were raised, and he had an attitude of pleading guilty.

"You still ask me? This is my aunt's brick factory. Who are you? What are you doing here?"

The author has something to say: These two chapters may be a bit watery, mainly because I accidentally wrote the article out of the outline, it may be better later~ I don’t have time to modify things recently, forgive me~
