The temperature dropped to 28 degrees, and the air became moist. At twelve o'clock in the morning, the convoy stopped, and the big man who sent the message came again. This time he announced that he would rest for five hours and set off on time at five in the morning.
Ye Fu left the team quietly. This was the junction between Lancheng and other cities. There were high mountains on both sides of the road, making it easy to hide. She hid in the mountains and was going to find a cave to change into her underwear and scrub herself.
Don't wash your face, neck and hair. The dirtier they are, the better.
Many trees in the mountains had died due to exposure to the sun. Ye Fu wore night vision glasses and quietly walked through the jungle of dead trees. At a mountain col, Ye Fu found a cave and took out a flashlight to check. There were no animals hiding there. Inside, Ye Fucai entered the cave with peace of mind.
He took out a basin of water from the space, quickly washed his body, and put on clean underwear. Ye Fu didn't have time to appreciate the rare full moon, so he put the basin into the space and immediately left the cave.
On the way back, in order to cause unnecessary trouble, she dug half a bag of wild vegetables on the mountain and caught a gray rabbit. But just as she was about to go down the mountain, Ye Fu heard some indescribable sounds coming from the nearby woods. .
He was almost starving to death and didn't forget to mess around. Ye Fu blocked his ears and left quickly.
"What took you so long?"
"What's wrong?"
"Just now, a few people ran to the front to beg for food, and there was some dispute. Those people who begged for food were beaten to death."
"It seems that the group in front is not simple, and they dare to kill people so unscrupulously."
Qi Yuan nodded, "Maybe he is really a relative of someone in power in Longtan Base."
Ye Fu smiled and did not continue the topic. He exposed the rabbit under the wild vegetables. Several people were extremely surprised when they saw it.
"You actually caught rabbits."
"We were lucky. I saw that many people were making fires to cook, so we got out of the car and got some food."
After everyone got off the car, a pit was built next to the car. He Rui and Zhang Yuan went to collect firewood, and Ye Fu peeled off the skin of the rabbit and strung it on the branches.
There were many people roasting giant rats nearby, and others were washing rice and cooking porridge. Ye Fu and his group were hidden among them, making them inconspicuous.
"Brother, can we exchange something with you? We will exchange three bowls of porridge with you for half a rabbit."
Officer Song stood up to negotiate with the other party. When he saw the white rice porridge in the other party's pot, he was also a little moved.
"Five bowls."
The bowl was neither big nor small, just a small porcelain bowl for ordinary meals. There was a full pot of porridge cooked in the other person's iron pot. Although it was a little thin, there were rice grains and rice soup at least.
The other party hesitated for a while and watched Ye Fu take out a plastic bag from the bag, take out half a pack of chili noodles and sprinkle some on the rabbit meat. He couldn't help but swallow.
"make a deal."
After the other party left, Officer Song knelt down and looked at Ye Fu with an apologetic look.
"Sorry, I made my own decision without consulting you."
"We are a team now. Anyone can make an decision. There is no need to worry about it. Besides, I will agree even if you don't agree. This deal is a good deal."
"Ye Fu is right. We are a team. The most important thing is to help each other and support each other to get to the base, instead of worrying about things in a small group. Okay, tomorrow I will also work hard to catch rabbits and try to let you eat me too. the fruits of labor.”
Officer Song is the most dedicated in this group, but the most insecure because he has a three-year-old child. Most of the time, everyone has to help him look after Wenwen. In order not to drag down the group and thank everyone, he always They are all the ones who work the hardest.
After the rabbit was roasted, Officer Song took it to trade with the other party. In exchange, he got five bowls of porridge, and he gave half of his bowl to Wenwen.
Ye Fu took a look and saw that there was a layer of rice grains at the bottom of the bowl. A little sugar was sprinkled into the porridge. Although the taste was very light, it could taste sweet.
"My current dream is very simple, that is to be able to eat well every day, sleep well, and not have to worry."
Ye Fu glanced at Qi Yuan, "This dream is not simple."
"Yes, it's hard to just eat enough, but now that the temperature has dropped so much, do you think the natural disaster is over?"
Ye Fu glanced at the bright moon, feeling inexplicably uneasy. She always felt that this was the calm before the storm.
Back in the car, everyone was ready to rest for a while, but Ye Fu never fell asleep. She kept counting how many people walked past the car.
The tires placed at the back had been tied to the roof of the car to prevent someone from deliberately puncturing them when passing by. At four o'clock in the morning, someone quietly approached the back of the car. Ye Fu and Officer Song opened their eyes at the same time. The two pulled apart at the moment the other was about to take action.
Open the car door, cover the other person's mouth, and quickly knock him out.
"Stealing oil and stealing tires." Officer Song glanced at the two men lying on the ground.
"You go back and I'll take care of it."
Ye Fu nodded. As soon as she got back to the car, Qi Yuan and the others woke up. Ye Fu briefly explained what had just happened. Officer Song came back two minutes later.
"I threw them into the ditch, and they were still alive and cut off two fingers."
"It seems we are being targeted." Officer Song wiped the blood on the dagger and said coldly.
At five o'clock sharp, the convoy started to set off. The journey this morning was relatively smooth and no roadblocks were encountered. At four o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy stopped in a rural town and saw collapsed buildings and cracked roads. Every vehicle
According to the old rules, two people came out of the car to clear the roadblock, while the others entered the uncollapsed house next to them and started searching for things.
"How long does it take to get to the base? We've been walking for three days, isn't it just over thirty kilometers? Why do we have to take such a long detour?"
In the RV, a young man was complaining, and the others could only coax him softly.
"Why didn't the old man send a plane to pick me up? I had to take a car there. I was exhausted and had to walk with these dirty and smelly refugees."
"That woman, bring her over and show her to me."
A little girl next to Ye Fu was dragged away. Two big men dragged her to the RV, threw a towel to her and asked her to wipe her face clean. The girl was trembling with fear, but she didn't dare to resist, so she could only
Wipe your face carefully.
"Tsk, she looks pretty good. Clean her up and bring her up."
A lazy voice came out of the car, and everyone didn't dare to look over, so they lowered their heads and continued working.
——
It took three hours to clear the roadblocks and fill the road. The convoy set off again at seven o'clock in the evening.
In the car, Ye Fu used a needle to prick the blisters on his palms, squeezed out the pus in the blisters, and then tore off the dead skin on them.
"Didn't you say there are no problems with this road? Why are the roadblocks being cleared every day?"
"On this road, the roadblocks were cleared, and other roads were washed away by floods."
"Ye Fu, lend me the needle."
Ye Fu handed the needle to Qi Yuan, and when he saw the dense blisters on his palm, his scalp suddenly felt numb.
