poor road [end times]

Although there are few survivors in Yang Village, and there are occasional minor disputes among them, they believe in the words of the elders in the village, as well as the words of the country and soldiers.The other two villages also believed Han Wenliang's words and were willing to do their best to build a safe zone. From now on, the three villages will look like a whole from the outside.

The village chief, Father Yang and others belonged to seniority, while Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin had seen countless safe zones and had a lot of experience. Under their organization, the construction of the village was in full swing.

Two weeks later, although there was not enough salt-added deicing agent, the snow-covered layer on the concrete road between the three villages had been trampled enough by excavators for cars to pass without causing deep sinking.The cement road is limited to two small private cars passing by each other. The terrain is higher than the farmland and field ridges on both sides. They plan to build a half-meter-high earth wall along both sides of the path, and build a three-meter-high solid barbed wire on the earth wall. .

According to the result of the discussion, in order to facilitate the movement, they will only build the iron net along the cement soil to ensure the unimpeded flow between the three villages.After the beginning of spring, the two large fields in the middle of the three villages will be included in the safe zone.

In order to meet the needs of self-sufficiency in the future, the scope of the farmland may be further expanded without dismantling the original barriers, and a new circle of iron fences will continue to be built outside.

In this way, when the small safety zone is established, the village will have a protective wall with a layer of iron netting and a layer of iron netting.Normally, you only need to stand on a high place and look around, and you can have a panoramic view of every layer of defense. Even if zombies or animals break through the first barbed wire fence, you must continue to break through the second, third and rural houses. Cement brick wall.

If there is any disadvantage, it is that it is difficult to pay attention to the peripheral situation at night when there are not enough people.

However, since Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin returned to the village, the village has not yet had the habit of taking turns to watch the night.

No one can enter their village unless someone builds a ladder to climb over it.

Therefore, the villagers are very relieved of the high gates of each family. Before going to bed, they check all the intersections and then return to their homes to close the courtyard and house doors.

The barbed wire used for the enclosure walls all come from nearby rural factories, which store a batch of processed iron nets.If there is an experienced uncle in the village, if the quantity is not enough, he can even lead everyone to process it by themselves.

Based on this premise, Father Yang and others planned to select the most suitable bungalows on the outskirts of each village and build watchtowers several meters high on the roofs to meet the needs of guards in the future.

It just so happened that Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin had a few high-power binoculars in their hands, so they simply handed them over to the village chief for safekeeping, as the village's public property.

mid-December.

The three villages have completed the reinforcement of their defenses, and the two sections of cement roads connecting the villages in the fields are tightly surrounded by barbed wire.A door is opened every other section of the barbed wire, which is directly connected to the farmyard walls on both sides of the village entrance, supplemented by self-made iron hooks and concrete reinforcement.

The construction of the observation deck is also in full swing.

Yangcun is located in the middle of the three villages. After the first barbed wire fence was built, the two village entrances that were originally reserved could only lead to the other two villages, and could no longer communicate with the outside world.

After careful consideration, Father Yang decided to change the east of the village into a passable intersection, which happens to lead to Heyan Road.It just so happened that their home was in the northeast of the village, relatively close to the east entrance of the village, so they could always pay attention to the situation there.

Today, the temperature is as low as minus 23 degrees.

Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin were carrying the stones and bricks blocking the village east intersection with their bare hands.

Mother Yang was afraid that they would be cold, so she specially sewed extra thick gloves, insoles, cotton socks for them, and knitted two fluffy scarves.After the scarf was finished, Father Yang used the remaining wool to make a colorful scarf for Mao Xiaoliu.

When Father Yang came to "inspect" their work, he looked at the warm scarves around the necks of the two and one, and suddenly became emotional.He patted Langqinggou's head, and said helplessly, "Big wolf, look at your mother, she has become so biased. You and I are the outsiders in this family."

Wolf Green Dog: "Aww——"

The little black cat learns its cry: "Meow——"

Yang Yiqin put a boulder on the cart, brushed off the dust on his gloves, and said with a smile, "Dad, what are you talking about? Didn't the scarves for you and Langqinggou have been finished before I came?"

Father Yang strode over, and while helping to carry the stones, he said, "Can the new one be the same as the old one?"

"Then line up and wait for my mother to be free, and then I'll knit a new one for you." Yang Yiqin took the stone from Father Yang's hand and piled it on the cart, "I heard that she wanted to knit a sweater for wolf and green dog. Come on, but it doesn't like being restrained, so it doesn't want to wear it."

"It has a wild personality, almost like a wolf, and it doesn't want to wear anything on its body. But it is so big, everyone is always afraid that it will accidentally bump into the old people in the village, so I coax it for a long time before I let it wear it. Now this collar."

After finishing speaking, Father Yang patted Langqinggou on the back, and Langqinggou roared and climbed onto the stone pile, using its front paws to pull the stones and bricks on it with surprisingly great strength.

When the little black cat saw this, his unwillingness to admit defeat came to his heart instantly. Not to be outdone, he ran to the stone pile and scratched with his paws.

However, the skill point of the little black cat is not strength. Its claws are like steel blades, which can scratch the flesh of any animal, and can be embedded in walls or even steel, but it cannot hold heavy objects several times heavier than itself.

When Langqinggou had already removed several large stones, there was only a pile of gravel in front of the little black cat.

Feng Lin, who was working hard, picked up the little black cat by the back of its neck, lifted it from the pile of stones, let go and threw a perfect parabola.

Mao Xiaoliu had long been used to this trick, turned over deftly in the air, and landed steadily.

Then, it tilted its head in doubt: "... Meow?"

Feng Lin: "It's in the way."

Maoxiaoliu: "..."

Only it doesn't help in the scene.

The disillusioned little black cat ran to Yang Yiqin's feet and rubbed his trouser legs dejectedly. Yang Yiqin knelt down and patted its head.The little black cat was immediately happy. When it regained its composure, it did not forget to look at Feng Lin with those orange cat eyes, which were full of provocation.

Feng Lin moved his wrist, and wanted to throw it further away.

Yang Yiqin spoke first, bowed his head and said to Mao Xiaoliu, "You help scout out the surroundings, and you are the most alert among all creatures."

Before they removed the stones and bricks blocking the intersection, they set up obstacles in front of the intersection to prevent zombies or animals from rushing into the village.Because the fields outside were all unobstructed, they didn't ask anyone to help keep watch.

The little black cat can't move large stones, so it's just suitable for sentry work.

If it stayed here all the time, there was a high probability that it would have to compete with the wolf and green dog again. In the end, Feng Lin, who hated getting in the way, grabbed the back of the neck and grabbed it.

After hearing Yang Yiqin's order, Mao Xiaoliu happily jumped to the roof of a nearby bungalow, concentrating on investigating the situation in the east of the village.

Father Yang smiled and praised: "I have to say, these kittens you raise are sometimes more obedient than my wolf and blue dog."

"Because we met before the full moon, and we know their cat mothers very well."

"Cat mother? You don't know there is this mutant cat?"

"There is also the cat father, and the brothers and sisters of the other five little black cats." Yang Yiqin explained, "The cat mother brought six brothers and sisters to Feng Lin and me, and we vacated a room for them as a cat nest. At that time, I thought they would leave soon. I didn’t expect that a few months passed, and we got to know each other better. When Feng Lin and I left the Beishi base, the other kittens were responsible for guarding our house.”

Father Yang was surprised: "So powerful?"

Feng Lin rarely praised the cats at home: "They all know how to wink."

Yang Yiqin: "..."

Does it mean that when the two of them were indescribable, Huahua pushed the other cats back to the second bedroom?

Father Yang didn't think too much about it, but said while moving: "The wolf and green dog are the same, they can watch the house and look at the color. The wolf dog is smarter than other animals, and when it grows bigger, it knows how to read words and expressions, and IQ is less to say. They're all at the teenage level."

Yang Yiqin asked curiously, "What about my cousin's goose?"

"Probably less than ten years old, right? Every day like a child who can't eat milk, his temper is so big that no one dares to mess with it." Yang's father recalled the situation of the big goose, saying, "Once it pecks people, it will definitely kill you." Seeing blood, there is another particularly powerful thing, that is, it makes a noise that other animals cannot bear, so except for your cousin, no one can do anything to it, until your cat comes to the village."

Yang Yiqin was surprised: "It's so powerful, but it has always been so arrogant, isn't it afraid that my cousin will stew it?"

I still remember that when they first came to the village, my cousin kept talking about stewing goose in an iron pot.

If the big goose had the IQ of a child, it would not be able to understand what my aunt said, but it still obediently obeyed the decision of my aunt, and did what it asked.

"That's your cousin's joke." Father Yang shook his head, "That big goose saved your cousin's life, and now there is only one goose left in her family, and the relationship between one person and one goose is very good. So She couldn't have stewed it, but maybe the other geese."

Yang Yiqin: "..."

After all these years, he still can't get used to the jokes made by his relatives.

So realistic.

Even though they were chatting, the three of them did not slow down at all in moving the stones and bricks, and even the wolf and green dog worked extraordinarily hard.Feng Lin's incomparable ability was fully revealed, and his speed of moving things was much faster than Yang Yiqin and Father Yang.

As a martial arts enthusiast, Father Yang admired strong people very much, so he was amazed at Feng Lin's strange strength and physique.

"I'm really old, even if I'm a dominant mutant, I can't compare to you guys who are just young."

"No." Feng Lin shook his head, "Uncle Yang is still very strong."

Father Yang laughed and said, "Stop praising me. Compared with you young people, how strong am I?"

Feng Lin said seriously: "It's true."

Although Yang's father is over 50 years old, he is healthier and stronger than many young people because of his diligent exercise all the year round.In addition, he seems to be a dominant mutant, and he is more energetic and energetic, and he will undoubtedly win the battle against ordinary young people.

Not long after, more than a dozen people came to help.

When the early years were difficult and difficult, the wells and houses in the village were dug out by the older generation of villagers with shovels and dustpans, loads of soil.Therefore, many elderly uncles in the village are in good health, and even if there is no mutation, they will not be sick and weak.

More than a dozen people worked hard for a while, moving most of the obstacles away from the intersection, and the village head rushed over with several villagers in their 50s and [-]s.One of them was riding a tricycle carrying a large iron gate countless times larger than the tricycle, and several others were behind to help hold the iron gate.

After stopping the tricycle, the village head asked with a smile, "How are you doing here? We got the door back."

"It's almost finished." Yang's father replied, "After the iron gate at the intersection is installed, it will be reinforced next to it. It's not good if you push it and step on it."

"Don't worry, we are all people who have built our own houses and know how to make them stronger."

With that said, the village chief directed everyone to put down the iron gate.

They must block the road before dark, otherwise they will not sleep well at night.

As the sky darkened, Big Goose and Wolf Green Dog joined the sentry team.

More than 20 people worked together to remove the old barriers, build new walls, and then install the iron gates in place.Immediately afterwards, they poured the wall next to them with the cement they had prepared in advance, making the wall and iron gate at the intersection like an iron barrel, and they would not collapse even if they were hit by vehicles several times.

After finishing this work, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

The completion of this gate indicates that the village has taken a small step in the direction of the safe zone, which is a phased success.

With a yell, the village head led the crowd to his home, where they set up a banquet to celebrate.

The elderly, children and women in the three villages have already prepared today's dinner, using the public food in the village - in order to ensure that the needy households in the village have food to eat, the village head specially collects the food from the families of the villagers who died. After getting up, the number of things in each household is clearly registered, and after the villagers have a look, they will be used as food reserves.

The places where public goods are stored are uniformly locked with two locks, one with Father Yang and the other with the village chief.Only when two people take out the keys at the same time can these food supplies be used, otherwise no one is allowed to secretly embezzle them.

After Yang Genbo and others returned to the village, the village chief and Father Yang promptly returned their food and supplies to those people according to the registered quantity.

The village chief's house was very lively, and several oil lamps were "spended huge sums" of money to light up the yard and the house, illuminating people's faces brightly.The smoke from the stove curls up into the sky along the door frame of the stove, and the aroma of steamed buns and meat dishes is intertwined and permeates the air, which is particularly enticing.

The villagers came and went, and the small courtyard was full of talking and laughing.

When Yang Yiqin stepped into the courtyard, the light of the oil lamp flashed in front of his eyes, the fragrance burst from his nose, and the noise came from his ears... for a moment, he felt as if he had returned to the past before the end of the world.

However, just separated by a wall in this courtyard is a row of desolate houses with walls covered with vines and fallen snow covering the grass.

If you zoom in infinitely, you will see desolate fields and devastated cities.

The whole world seems to have only the light at the moment.

no future.

Seeing them coming back, the cousin came up to meet them with the big goose, and asked, "Have you solved it there? The road between the three villages has been fixed, and we can go to the next village to chat unimpeded in the future."

"It's all done." The village head couldn't help but reminded, "But don't just go to the other two villages to play casually. Although the road between the three villages is open, except for necessary times, the village entrances can communicate with each other at other times. The doors have to be closed.”

Even so, Han Wenliang specially left them with a few short-range walkie-talkies, enough for communication between the three villages.

"I know, you can't visit the house in different situations, and you have to guard your one-acre three-point land." The cousin smiled, "I'm just kidding, why are you always so serious?"

The goose spread its wings ferociously and quacked a few times towards the village chief.

Village Chief: "... Take care of your big goose."

Aunt Biao pointed to Mao Xiaoliu: "Let the little black cat take care of it, I can't control my ancestor."

The village head joked: "Then stew."

"Succeed, it will be stewed soon." Auntie said with a smile, "I'm thinking about when to start."

After speaking, she went to do other things.

The village head turned to the others and said, "Zhang Weihua and Liu Wen went back to their own village for a meeting. Today we will gather in our village alone. You all find a place to sit down. We will start eating soon."

Hearing this, Yang's father, Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin walked towards Yang's mother.

The yard and the living room of the village head's house are very large. There are three large tables in the living room, and food, dishes and chopsticks are also placed on the coffee table.The old man and the children sit at the same table, and the rest of the villagers sit scattered in other places.

There are many people in the house, and the stove is burning hot, so it is quite warm.

Yang Yiqin took off his gloves and rubbed his ears.

The temperature outside was so low that even though everyone was wearing gloves, scarves and hats, their hands were still red with cold.

The sides of Yang Yiqin's cheeks were also flushed. His body was slightly hot from the energy consumption of the day, but after taking off the gloves he had been wearing for a day, he could see that the knuckles were obviously a little more purple than other parts. It turns white when pressed.

Only Feng Lin's hands were normal, with no signs of being frozen.

Father Yang and Mother Yang also noticed this.

Father Yang asked strangely: "When the strength increases, the cold resistance will also increase?"

"The researchers at the Beishi base also have the same guess." Feng Lin replied seriously, "But it's just a guess. There is no reliable experimental research to support this conclusion."

"It's good not to be afraid of the cold." Yang's mother smiled, "We Qinqin has been afraid of the cold since he was a child. Fortunately, he is very active and can't sit still at all, otherwise he would have to be wrapped up like a bear every winter."

Feng Lin said solemnly: "Aunt Yang, don't worry, I'll help him keep warm."

Mother Yang didn't notice anything wrong, and said with a smile: "Haha, then we will leave it to you."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and chatted with Father Yang.

While she was speaking, Feng Lin held Yang Yiqin's hand, trying to warm his cold skin.The cool, soft and delicate touch of the skin made him rub it a few times.

Yang Yiqin looked at him with a smile, and said with his mouth: Be careful, don't be discovered by others, Qingqing and I will not influence you well.

Feng Lin covered the hands of the two with the scarf that he had taken off, but the grip was even tighter.

Before the dinner started, the village chief stood up with the bowl in his hand, his deep eyes swept across the people present, and he spoke slowly——

"This should be the first time that our village has been so lively since the end of the world broke out."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone fell silent for a moment.

"Everyone present has lost relatives and friends, and finally survived the monster's mouth. Fortunately, there are no bad people in Yangcun. Those who survived are not only self-reliant, but also help the village save people, build walls, block Road. Our village is so safe, and Comrade Shi and Comrade Han chose it as a small safe zone, it is everyone's credit."

The villagers applauded one after another.

The village head continued: "But besides that, there are people we must thank, namely Xiao Yang and Xiao Feng."

As he spoke, he looked in the direction where Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin were.

Everyone looked over.

"If it weren't for these two children who traveled thousands of miles to return home, if they didn't tell us what's going on outside, and if they didn't find the location of the national security zone, we might still be confused about the way out of the village. From the construction of village defenses, you should also It can be seen that although the two of them are not very old, they are sensible and far-sighted, and they make no decisions."

Father Yang took the lead and said with a hearty smile: "Village Chief, don't praise them two, I'm afraid they won't know their real name."

"How come?" The village head also laughed, "I think they are much more stable than you think. I've been praising them here for a long time, and neither of them even blinked their eyes. They look like people who are used to being praised."

The people in the room roared with laughter.

Yang Yiqin bent his eyes helplessly: "Village Chief, what do you want to say?"

"That's right." The village chief straightened his expression and said, "Not only have you two stayed in the Beishi base, but you have also traveled to other unfamiliar areas alone many times. Much more. So, I want you to be the deputy village chiefs of the village, like Yang Jianguo, to be the leaders of the village—of course, the title of deputy village chiefs is temporarily determined by me.”

"It turns out that this is the matter... We have indeed discussed it." Father Yang nodded in agreement, "The two of them have more experience than anyone in the village when dealing with crises in the last days. They are powerful and well-informed. We To establish a qualified safety zone, we will definitely need their help in the early stage and listen to their opinions."

The village nodded and looked at the other people in the house.

Aunt Biao was the first to speak: "Although the village likes seniority ranking the most, it's the end of the world, and seniority ranking is already 100 years behind. It must be whoever is capable. Anyway, I agree with the village chief, and I am willing to listen to them The words of two people."

Yang Genbo hurriedly said, "I am willing too!"

"I would too."

"Me too."

"..."

After this period of contact, they have long been convinced by these two young people who can fly helicopters and kill zombies.

Ability is king, everything else is empty.

"Since that's the case, then it's settled." The village chief stroked his beard and slapped the table hard to make a decision, "From today onwards, the construction and development of our rural safety zone will depend on Xiao Yang, Xiao Feng, and the leaders of the national security zone." Comrades, the others will follow the command and do things, and no one should complain."

"No complaints, no complaints."

"Can I eat?"

"Yeah, it's been a busy day, should we eat?"

The village chief smiled angrily: "I just know how to eat."

"Let's have dinner." Father Yang laughed loudly, "Everyone is willing to let Qinqin and Xiaofeng manage the village, isn't it just so that they will not be eaten by zombies in the future, and they can also have enough food by themselves?"

The village chief made a decision.

"Okay, let's serve dinner."

The author has something to say:
