The oil city is dotted with lights. If you look down from a high altitude, there is only one bright spot within a radius of dozens of miles.
Drones are still patrolling the surrounding areas.
It's a dark night, the stars are dim tonight, and even the moonlight is not as bright as yesterday.
In the dark night, it is like a pair of invisible hands swallowing people up.
The light is so weak and the darkness is so vast, it makes people feel hopeless.
Li Yu stood in the arranged single dormitory room, looking outside through the window.
Due to the large indoor temperature difference on the window glass, a layer of frost condensed on the outside and a layer of fog formed on the inside.
Li Yu stretched out his hand and drew a circle on the glass. Then he felt it was not round enough, so he wrote the words "Oil City".
The writing is sloppy, but it looks strangely funny on the glass.
The writing on the glass slowly became blurred as time passed, and a layer of fog condensed again.
It was still early and Li Yu couldn't sleep.
There is heating in the room. Although it is warm, it is very dry. It is so dry that it makes people feel hot.
Li Yu took a sip of water, then opened the window and smoked a cigarette.
Cold air blows in, indoor hot air blows out, fresh cold air comes in, and smoke curls out of the room.
After smoking a cigarette, Li Yu closed the window.
I took off my shoes and lay on the bed, took out a book from my luggage bag and read it.
After watching for half an hour, I suddenly heard a movement outside.
Bang!
Li Yu stood up quickly, then picked up the gun placed on the bedside, put on his shoes and slowly walked to the door.
Squeak——
He opened the door and looked out to see Zuo Ruxue picking up an iron box from the ground and passing by downstairs.
Li Yu was relieved when he saw it was Zuo Ruxue.
When Zuo Ruxue picked up the iron box just now, he glanced at it from the corner of his eye. The iron box seemed to contain some small pieces of paper, and he didn't know what the noodles were for.
Shaking his head, he closed the door, put the gun on the bedside, and continued reading.
After watching for more than an hour, he felt sleepy and lay down to rest.
...
Nothing happened all night.
Early the next morning, a motorcade drove out of the Southern Paradise.
The convoy was huge, with more than thirty vehicles.
Every car has snow chains on its tires.
And the car at the front is equipped with an ice-breaking shovel.
The weather was minus 20 degrees Celsius, with ice and snow.
The originally familiar roads had now become unfamiliar, but one could roughly tell where they were through the outlines of some buildings.
On the car.
Ma Yingxue wears sunglasses. She wears sunglasses not to look cool, but because the ground is covered with ice and snow outside, and her eyes are all white. If she looks at it for a long time, she will become red and shed tears.
Vehicles roar.
Ma Yingxue sat in the back seat of the car and said to Chen Er, the co-pilot in front: "Captain Chen, what did the person sent from Da Zhangshu base last time say next?"
Chen Er turned his head and said, "Weren't you there at that time?"
Ma Yingxue said with some embarrassment: "Didn't I go out for a while, and I didn't hear it in the end."
Chen Er coughed, and then said: "It is to achieve in-depth cooperation and launch new types of transactions. In addition, Mr. Hu wants to meet the city owner of the Da Zhangshu Base.
But later because of the blizzard, this matter was put on hold for the time being, and I can talk to them about it later."
Ma Yingxue nodded, "I understand."
Then he continued to look out the car window. The wind was picking up outside the car window, picking up the broken ice on the ground and making a rustling sound.
The journey from Jinling to Petroleum City is hundreds of kilometers long, but the road is mainly on plains and does not have complex terrain, so it is relatively easy to walk.
Because the ground was covered with a thick layer of ice and snow, their speed was maintained at a speed of forty yards.
Along the way, Chen Er asked everyone to count the numbers from time to time to ensure that no one was left behind.
Hum hum hum——
The car in the front climbed the hill, and halfway up it found that it couldn't go up, and even showed signs of rolling away.
Immediately press the accelerator to the bottom and continue to climb up.
Boom boom boom——
ZiLiuLi——
Even though anti-skid chains were installed, the car still rolled due to the slope.
"The car is rolling away, everyone, back up! Hurry!" The man sitting in the passenger seat immediately took out his walkie-talkie to contact everyone in other vehicles.
The man sitting in the passenger seat looked nervous. The car he was driving was the largest in the team. If the car slipped down and hit other cars, it might...
In times of crisis, he did not slam on the brakes immediately.
Instead, tap the brake lightly, then release it again, then apply the brake again.
Because he knew clearly that when the car was rolling, if he stepped on the brakes and the tires were locked, the car would slide directly behind him.
After hearing the news from the front, the vehicles behind immediately backed up and dispersed.
ZiLiuLi——
The car in front slid down at a constant speed, and finally stopped after sliding for more than ten meters.
There was no car accident, which made him relieved.
boom!
Chen Er got off the car, went to the front to check the situation, frowned and said to everyone: "Don't go this way, let's go another way."
They had already used snow tires, but there was nothing they could do when facing a slope that was too steep.
In a temperature of minus 20 degrees, they were moving very slowly in a vast expanse of white ice and snow.
Vehicles skidded, lost their way... They faced all kinds of problems.
...........
Oil City.
When Li Yu woke up, his mouth felt dry.
It's so uncomfortable.
The heating in Oil City was turned up too high, which made him a little angry.
I opened the window, took a few breaths of fresh air, and drank a large bottle of water. This made me feel much better.
Then he packed up his things, carried his gun and bag and walked out.
It's time to return to the Da Zhangshu base.
Zuo Ruxue also handed over the work to Guo Peng and the others yesterday. Her luggage is ready and she is waiting to leave.
Li Yu went downstairs and saw his third uncle standing at the entrance of the corridor eating frozen persimmons.
It was so cold outside that he grinned from the cold.
"Uncle Third, why are you eating this outside? It's so cold outside."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The third uncle waved his hand and said: "You don't understand."
Li Yu was a little confused. Seeing his confused expression, his third uncle didn't explain, so he said, "Shall we leave now?"
Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Let's finish breakfast and set off after eating."
The third uncle nodded: "Okay!"
Then Jackal and the others heated the helicopter. It was frozen all night yesterday. If it didn't warm up, it wouldn't be able to fly at all.
Breakfast was eaten with Ju Tianrui and the others. After finishing breakfast, Li Yu looked at Ju Tianrui, Xiao Jun, Dongtai, Zhu Xiao, Guo Peng and others in turn, and then said to them: "Let's go!
"
What needs to be said was already said yesterday, and it seems a bit long-winded to say it again today.
There are four helicopters in Oil City. When they came yesterday, in addition to Guo Peng and the others, they also brought some supplies.
On this trip back, the supplies were replaced by oil.
Zuo Ruxue stepped onto the helicopter and looked outside through the helicopter window, her eyes a little complicated.
They stayed here for nearly half a year, watching the oil city change step by step, with the walls being raised and guard towers being built...
These all have traces of her involvement.
And now, she is going back soon.
It’s been too long since I left the Da Zhangshu Base, and I feel a bit shy about being close to home.
Expectant yet nervous.
She didn't know if the Da Zhangshu Base had changed much now. With this expectation, the helicopter took off and soared into the sky.
Buzz——
Listening to the sound from the helicopter, Zuo Ruxue looked at the snow-white earth below and felt extremely happy in her heart.
She is finally going back.
.....
The helicopter flew for an hour and a half and arrived at the transfer station.
However, there were more zombies near the transfer station. Hundreds of zombies were wandering around the transfer station, walking aimlessly.
Buzz buzz——
Until the sound of helicopters attracted them, these zombies ran towards the transfer station.
But due to the high walls of the transfer station, these zombies couldn't get in at all.
Everyone in the helicopter also discovered the zombies below.
"There weren't so many zombies when we came yesterday, why are there so many today!" Lao Qin said with some confusion.
He did not land the helicopter immediately, but lingered in the sky.
The sound of the helicopter stimulated the zombies, who roared and faced them.
The third uncle said calmly: "It must have been caused by the corpses of those people yesterday..."
"Didn't we burn those bodies?"
"It was during the burning process that the zombies came over, but there aren't many. It's okay. I didn't find any problems. Let's land." The third uncle said.
"OK."
Lao Qin then controlled the helicopter to land in Building B.
From above, they could still see a scorched black spot in the left corner of Building B.
That was when the corpse was set on fire yesterday, and the surrounding walls were burned black.
landing.
I checked that there was no problem with the door, and then refueled it.
Looking at the zombies looking up and roaring at them through a wall outside, everyone present had calm expressions on their faces.
More than three years have passed since the apocalypse, and facing zombies is no longer a surprise. It is a common occurrence and very accustomed to it.
Twenty minutes later.
They refueled the helicopter and flew towards the Da Zhangshu Base.
.......
The closer they got to the Da Zhangshu base, the more excited Zuo Ruxue and the big-breasted girl became.
Finally home.
Although they felt good in Oil City, Oil City could not give them the absolute sense of security that they had at the Da Zhangshu Base.
In the minds of the people at Da Zhangshu Base, as long as they enter the city, it means they don't have to worry about safety issues.
Unless you seek death, you can put your heart in your stomach once you enter the city.
soon.
They arrived at the Da Zhangshu base at 11 o'clock in the morning.
Li Yu just had a short business trip. After getting off the helicopter, he waited for Zuo Ruxue and the others to be examined.
When Zuo Ruxue was just in the sky, she saw some changes in the camphor tree base.
The third outer city was built, and we even saw a large construction site. Through Li Yu, we learned that it was the fourth outer city.
There are also higher walls and some newly built buildings... She doesn't know what they are used for.
With complicated emotions, she finally landed.
The ones who came over to examine them were Dong Dong Dong, Xiao Hu and others.
"Sister Zuo, long time no see." Dong Dong Dong said to her with a smile.
Dongdongdong is He Bing's college classmate. He joined the Da Zhangshu base very early and has been staying in the outer city, working as a pharmacist.
Zuo Ruxue looked at the smile on Dongdongdong's face, and her mood instantly became happy.
Smiles are contagious, and Zuo Ruxue's smile made the busty girls around, Cugu and others also smile.
If we were to say that in the oil city before, there was always a tight rope.
Then now it is complete relaxation.
Without the tension and anxiety, Zuo Ruxue's overall condition seemed to be much better.
"Dong dong dong, long time no see." Zuo Ruxue replied.
Then he asked: "How are Li Qi and the others? And where are Yu Ming and Yu Lei?"
The Xiao Hu and Dong Dong Dong in front of me are both acquaintances.
Especially Xiao Hu, he and Guo Peng were the earliest non-staff members. Half a year ago, they were not outside the city staff.
Half a year later, he, Guo Peng, and Zhu Xiao all became members of the outer city.
Dong Dong Dong smiled and replied: "They are all in the outer city. You can go find them later."
Then he said: "Congratulations, you have become a member of the outer city!"
It's not easy.
The members of Zuo Ruxue's group are all female, and they are also among the first batch of non-staff members, but their points contribution has been rising slowly.
At the same time, Zhu Xiao, Guo Peng, Xiao Hu and others had all been promoted, but they failed to advance, so they gritted their teeth and ran away to the Oil City and stayed there for more than half a year.
At this moment, it can be regarded as returning with victory.
Zuo Ruxue felt a little sad when she heard the congratulations from Xiao Hu and Dongdongdong, then she felt happy.
The joy that couldn't be hidden in the corners of her eyes made her look much younger.
After the inspection is completed.
Li Yu took a group of them into the first outer city.
In the first outer city, before Li Yu landed, his second uncle summoned all the people in the outer city, as well as many collaborators.
The original plan was to let these collaborators and non-staff personnel build the fourth outer city after the snowstorm was over.
Later, because the weather was too cold, there were too many problems that needed to be solved, and half the result was achieved with half the effort, so we had to pause and wait until it gets warmer to continue construction.
But the collaborators didn't just leave them idle. The second uncle continued to assign tasks to them so that they would not be idle.
Zuo Ruxue and others had just entered the Wengcheng and were surprised when they suddenly saw the bustling crowd standing in the first outer city.
Among them were many people she was familiar with, such as He Chao, Li Qi, He Bing...
But there are also many people she doesn't know, such as Xue Zhihua, Qingxiao...
"This is?" Zuo Ruxue looked at Li Yu in surprise and asked.
Li Yu smiled and said: "This is a promotion ceremony held for you!"
Then he led them to the front of the crowd and stood on a high platform.
He waved his hand and pointed at Zuo Ruxue and the others, and said to everyone:
"Some of you may know them, and some may not."
"Let me introduce to you, this is the non-staff Zuo Ruxue team sent out by our Da Zhangshu Base half a year ago. All members are women!"
"They stayed in the oil city for half a year, and they never complained or regretted, and they never told me that they wanted to come back."
"We experienced heavy rain, zombie threats, and enemy threats both openly and covertly, but they all persevered!"
.....
"Here, we congratulate them for becoming outer city personnel of Da Zhangshu Base!"
Everyone looked at him with admiration and blessing.
Li Qi was even more excited. Although she was still a non-staff member, she was also excited to see Zuo Ruxue, whom she was familiar with, become a member of the outer city.
"The following will award them with outer city personnel badges..."
In the envious eyes of everyone, Zuo Ruxue walked over.
She had never cried when she encountered various problems and difficulties in the oil city, and her eyes were red at this time.
This scene.
Everything she had insisted on before was worth it!
