Chapter 968 Wuyi Mountain, Old House in the Mountain(1/2)
An autumn rain and a cold.
After entering October, with the coming of heavy rain, the temperature dropped quickly.
In particular, the personnel on duty on the fence not only have to face the cold rain, but also have to be vigilant to watch the zombies below to avoid the zombie outbreak from stacking too high.
This is a huge challenge for them.
So Li Yu readjusted the duty plan and brought in all the people from other cities to be on duty. In this way, each person's duty time was greatly reduced, and on average, he only needed to be on duty for three hours a day.
Undoubtedly, it greatly relieves the pressure of every staff member on duty.
The continuous heavy rain in the dark night has caused many people to accumulate some negative energy, but most of them feel lucky. After all, they can still have a place to stay in such a terrifying natural disaster.
...........
Southern paradise.
Madman has just left Mr. Hu's side. With sufficient diesel, many things can be carried out relatively smoothly.
Braving the rain, we arrived at a relatively large basement. This area was their experimental field.
There are some fill lights installed above the basement, and below are some crops they have recently started planting.
A week has passed and some green seedlings have grown above the soil, which look quite pleasing under the light of the fill light.
The madman pulled up a chair and leaned on it. His body was wet, and raindrops were dripping from the corners of his clothes.
Seeing those green seedlings reminded me of my daughter inexplicably.
I think her favorite thing at the beginning was plants, and she also studied botany in college, but there was an outbreak of zombies...
The madman stopped thinking about it, pressed his hands on the chair, stood up slowly, picked up the crutch next to him, and staggered towards the place where he lived.
Beside the wall, Chen Er and others braved the heavy rain to stop the zombies.
People in the apocalypse will always think of various ways to stop zombies. If they can survive to this day in Southern Paradise, they naturally have their own way of resisting zombies.
They lowered a huge steel cylinder under the wall, which could be raised and lowered freely. Many blades or sharp cones were welded to the cylinder.
This solid cylinder weighs 1.5 tons.
A slideway similar to a railroad is installed on the wall stack, and the lever principle is used. People push a horizontal bar on it. The human thrust is amplified through the lever principle, pushing the cylindrical blade below to move.
People were running on the wall, and the cylindrical blades below were pushed along, and zombies were knocked away by the thick steel cylinders.
Even if there are a lot of zombies, due to the great force of the rapid push and the sharp blade, the stacked zombies can be cut in half.
Although it consumes manpower, the effect so far seems to be pretty good.
But I'm just a little tired.
The wheels kept sliding, almost never stopping, it was a relay race.
Without enough electricity, they could only use this manual method.
However, there are a lot of people in Southern Paradise, 2,000 people, and the manpower is enough to support them in using this method.
.......
Western Fujian Province.
At the foot of Wuyi Mountain.
Four or five people were running through the mountains and forests, carrying packages on their backs and not daring to stop at all.
"Team leader, where else can we go now?" asked a young man from behind.
The leading man was carrying a black bag and was wearing a coat. The coat was covered with zombie flesh and blood, but in the heavy rain, the flesh and blood were constantly being washed away by the rain.
"You can't go to the south, and there are zombies to the west. Let's go to the east mountain first." The leading man said quickly.
After saying that, he ran eastward in the rain.
Among the four or five people, only one flashlight illuminated the road ahead.
The road is slippery on rainy days, let alone in dense mountain forests.
In the dense mountain forests, there are luxuriant plants, and one of the most abundant plants grows among them. The plant is called iron wolfberry, and the locals call it "Luyu".
The fern is a fern that grows in the mountains in the south, especially on some slopes with sandy soil. It is a plant that tolerates poor soil and is not sensitive to drought.
These iron wolf pods are more than one meter tall and can submerge half a person.
It was very difficult for them to walk among them, and their faces were scratched by leaves from time to time.
They walked in the mountain rain for who knows how long.
Maybe a few hours, maybe a dozen hours.
It was getting dark all the time, and they kept walking towards the east.
After climbing over a mountain, I finally found a small house.
This small house is very simple, with an area of less than ten square meters.
But they were already exhausted at this time, so it would be great to find a place like this.
The man took a quick look inside with his flashlight, but there were no zombies.
The walls on both sides are covered with some wooden shelves, and on both sides of the shelves are some plastic barrels, but they are sealed, and I don't know what is inside.
"Come in quickly." After the leader walked in, he said to the people behind him.
The three people behind him ran in.
After they came in, the leading man quickly closed the door, but the door was in disrepair. As soon as he closed it, he fell to the ground with a bang.
The man frowned and said to the people who came in:
"Legs, Ansheng, bring two things over here and put the door on top first."
Boom, boom, boom!
Legs dropped the two backpacks on his shoulders on the ground. These were not only his backpacks, but also the backpacks of the team members who died on the road. There was food in them, so of course he had to take them with him.
Legs turned on his flashlight, then walked to the right and opened the lid of the plastic bucket with his hands.
But he couldn't unscrew it with one hand, so he bit the flashlight in his mouth, held down the plastic bucket with one hand, and twisted it hard with the other.
The lid was tightly sealed, and he finally unscrewed the lid until his veins burst.
A strong smell of pine oil came over me.
Legs excitedly shined a flashlight into the oil barrel. The yellow translucent liquid was exactly pine oil!
This kind of oil is hung from the pine trees and then slowly flows out. To accumulate such a barrel of pine oil, it would take at least dozens of pine trees to flow out.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The pine oil that can flow out from each pine tree is very limited. Before the end of the world, there was a profession that specialized in cutting the bark of pine trees and then installing them.
People who work on oil recovery devices are busy in the mountains and forests all day long.
This may be a small house they built for temporary rest.
"Brother Chen, this plastic bucket is filled with pine oil!" Legs shouted excitedly.
He couldn't help but be so excited. The group of them left Da Zhangshu Base to perform a mission, originally thinking of going far away to make a big fortune.
But I never thought that I was fine when I went out, but it rained on the way back and I couldn't go back.
A group of more than 20 people encountered zombies on the road. If they hadn't abandoned their vehicles and fled to the mountains and forests, they would have all been accounted for there.
They also stayed in some towns for two nights, but the zombies in the heavy rain had an extremely sensitive sense of smell. They were discovered, and two more people died. The remaining people took their teammates' packages and killed a few zombies.
Chop up the zombies and smear the flesh and blood on the surface of the clothes.
Using this method of cover, I escaped from the house and ran into the forest again.
But it was not safe to go too close to the road, so they kept running deeper into the forest.
Unfortunately, I thought that after running two kilometers, I felt that the mountain forest here was almost safe. When I stopped to rest, a zombie appeared out of nowhere and bit one of the group members.
So they killed the zombies, picked up the team members' packages, and fled again.
Wuyi Mountain covers thousands of square kilometers. They were deep in the forest and had no idea where they were.
After running continuously for a day and night in the heavy rain, my whole body was soaked by the rain, and my face and neck were covered with scratches from leaves.
"Pine tree oil?" Chen Delong, the leader of this team, felt excited when he heard Legs say this.
Pine oil has many functions. It can be used as a lubricant before the end of the world. It can be used in many chemical products.
It also has a sterilizing effect, and most importantly, it can be burned and is very resistant to burning.
If there are a dozen of these oil drums in this house and they are filled with pine oil, they will distribute them. At least they can dry clothes and keep warm on this cold rainy day.
"First move over and block the door." Chen Delong said to his legs and An Sheng.
Legs held the flashlight in his mouth, then picked up the pine oil barrel, moved it to the door, and held it against the wooden door.
Each barrel of oil is estimated to weigh more than 40 kilograms. Two barrels of oil were pressed against the back of the door, which prevented the door from falling down.
Brother Chen searched the room and found a long pole, then inserted one end into the door frame and the other end against the corner of the wall to form a support.
The rain hit the door, making a crackling sound, but at least the wooden door blocked the rain and did not fall down.
Chen Delong took a flashlight and checked the contents of this small room.
