Chapter 54 My parents’ compassion shines in the end of the world (9)
Moreover, they soon felt the hardships of the last days.
Since the tent area is a work-for-housing scheme, the people living in it are a mixed bag.
The task assigned to the Yu family's parents was to repair the defensive wall of the safe zone.
This job is not easy, but as long as you work for more than four hours, you can get a bowl of gruel at noon.
There are not many rice grains in the porridge, but there is enough salt.
The day after moving to the tent area, the Yu family and his wife went to the construction site and worked very hard.
At noon, both of them were very tired, but they each received a full bowl of porridge.
I originally thought that after eating, I would go back to the tent and lie down. As long as I don't move, I will consume less energy.
But they didn't want to just return to the tent and find that everything they put in the tent was gone.
Yu Guang bought a lot of things for them, including clothes for all seasons, sheets and bedding, pots and pans, filling the tent to the brim.
Originally, the couple thought that when the weather got colder, they would sell these things in the market.
But now there is nothing.
Materials were related to whether they could survive this winter safely. After discovering that the tent was stolen, the two immediately asked around the tent area.
But those people waved their hands and told them to leave.
As if they are some disgusting garbage.
Even the neighbors who were rescued by them looked away and pretended not to see the couple.
Neither the Yu nor his wife could keep their faces low and cause trouble. Knowing that their things could not be found, they sat together and cried while hugging each other.
It took them a long time to get over the haze of the theft.
But the most unbearable thing for them was the night.
The tent area is quite lively at night, and there are often men and women coming to have fun with instant noodles, rice, bread, and even mineral water.
At this time, face seems to have become the most worthless thing in the world.
A blushing and heart-warming groan sounded from above the tent area.
The Yu couple hugged each other tightly and covered their ears with both hands: Why would there be such a shameless woman?
Don’t they feel uncomfortable doing such a thing?
After about half a month of this kind of life, the Yu family and his wife looked quite haggard.
They thought they had already suffered a devastating blow, but who would have thought that what happened next would be even more than they could bear.
They actually found their quilt in their neighbor's tent.
Not just quilts, but after careful observation, you can actually find his belongings in the surrounding tents.
Yu's father originally planned to go up to argue, but Yu's mother held him back.
Everyone is suffering, and life is not easy.
It's better for things to be used than to be left there to mold.
And in order to maintain law and order in the safe area.
The slum area originally had stricter regulations than other areas.
One of them is that no theft is allowed.
As long as the thief can provide complete evidence, the thief will have his arms chopped off.
After being persuaded by Yu's mother, Yu's father also discovered his mistake and immediately began a deep self-examination.
How could he become so unkind.
How could these neighbors survive in troubled times if they lost their arms?
In order to save the arms of their neighbors, the couple eventually remained silent.
After discovering that his behavior was exposed, the neighbors were originally worried that the Yu couple would come to cause trouble.
But I didn't expect that this couple would actually take the initiative to make peace with each other.
At this time, the surrounding neighbors felt reassured.
As for the Yu family couple, who were defined as soft buns, life became increasingly difficult.
Because they like to help others, their co-workers take the initiative to leave the hard work to them.
The reason is that they are serious and careful and can shoulder more responsibilities.
Since they often gave in to each other when eating, the eldest sister who cooked the meal thoughtfully reduced the amount of food for both of them to avoid unnecessary waste.
As time went by, the Yu family and his wife succeeded in living like doormats. Even Grandma Liu, who had been closest to them before, had not come to see them for a long time.
Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, and there was only one tent, the Yu couple finally made up their minds.
They plan to go out of the city as bait.
There are many teams that kill zombies in the safe zone, and they often receive some tasks.
Sometimes I go to the supermarket to collect supplies, and sometimes I go somewhere to rescue some important people and get some important information.
Or clean up the zombies in a certain place and develop a new base.
Every superpower is a valuable resource for the base and cannot be wasted.
It is a generally accepted rule that after a resident dies, his or her body becomes a bait for the team.
But in addition to dead bait, there are also living baits.
Once in danger, just open a wound on the bait and the smell of blood will lure away nearby zombies.
If the bait is lucky enough to survive, it will get the right to use a private house for one year, as well as a large amount of supplies.
If the bait does not survive, his relatives will inherit these materials.
But these baits are also subject to conditions. Those who are thin, old and frail are not allowed, and those who are not quick enough to react are not allowed.
The Yu family and his wife just met all the needs as bait.
The couple originally planned to go only one way, but both wanted to sacrifice themselves so that the other could survive.
After holding each other's hands and crying several times, the couple finally decided that they had to die together.
Unfortunately, in this day and age, such a valuable way to die is not something that can be obtained casually.
The Yu family and his wife participated in the selection of many task teams, but were eventually rejected.
Just when the two were about to give up and starve to death holding each other.
Yu Yaya's team actually started recruiting bait.
It is said that a large-scale zombie death occurred in a community recently.
The heads of these zombies were all broken, and the base commander of the safe zone was about to send Yu Yaya's team out to check the situation.
Because judging from the current performance, Yu Yaya's group has the highest mission success rate. Of course, the base commander will also choose to support the strong.
After a meeting, Yu Yaya discussed with several main players in the team and planned to take over the task issued by the base director.
That's why we have to choose bait.
After the personnel were brought over, Yu Yaya's eyes swept over the Yu family and his wife.
Then he raised his chin directly: "Just them!"
I originally thought that these two people could hold on for a while, but they didn't expect that they could no longer hold on and were ready to die so soon.
Since they don't value their own lives so much, then she should just be a favor.
The Yu family couple also saw Yu Yaya, who was sitting on top, dressed in black and as sexy and beautiful as a poppy.
They originally wanted to say hello to Yu Yaya, but thinking of Yu Yaya's decisive words, they finally lowered their heads.
This child doesn't want to recognize them, so it's better for them not to cause trouble.
They felt uneasy when they were not chosen, and when they heard that Yu Yaya had actually chosen them, they felt a little sad.
The children they had worked so hard to raise were now planning to send them to die.
But their sadness did not last long. As a bait, they ate the most filling meal in the past two months.
