Although Ji Zhan and Qi Huan are both very good evolvers, they are still human beings, and there will always be times when their physical strength and energy are exhausted.
Qi Huan hasn't had a good rest since he overused his powers during the last battle with the mother monster. He was tense all night yesterday and his body has long been exhausted.
Ji Zhan was also somewhat affected by the use of supernatural powers, and later he fought with dozens of robbers in the garage. There were also many evolvers among those robbers, and they were not as easy to deal with as imagined.
At this moment, Ji Zhan was lying on Jing Sa's back. Someone came up and wanted to thank Ji Zhan. Jing Sa immediately raised his hand as a sign of silence.
When the visitor saw Ji Zhan sleeping with his head resting on Jing Sa's shoulder, his eyes closed, he quickly covered his mouth and nodded.
The temporary stronghold quickly provided them with a place to rest. Jing Sa carried Ji Zhan and walked over first, and the survivors of the fourth base in the car were also arranged one after another.
After Zhao Ziwei held on his body and communicated with the responsible person at the temporary base, he also planned to deal with the wounds on his body first, but after taking two steps, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something.
Zhao Ziwei sighed, ran back and climbed onto the roof of the car, and pulled Qi Huan down from his sleep.
…
Ji Zhan was earlier than Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei. She opened her eyes and saw the ceiling with peeling wall above her head. She turned around and saw Jing Sa, who was leaning against the wall with a long knife and resting with her eyes closed.
Jing Sa bent one foot, put his arm on his knee, half-clutched the long knife and leaned it against his hand, his lowered forehead lightly resting on the handle of the knife.
Jing Sa woke up almost as soon as Ji Zhan looked over. Her long and thick eyelashes were raised, and her eyes were opened like ink, with a hint of laziness that she had just woken up from sleep. But with a glance, she
He also showed a bit of fierceness unconsciously.
However, when he looked at Ji Zhan, all that fierceness was suppressed and suppressed in his eyes. He lowered his voice and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Ji Zhan sat up and glanced around.
The temporary resting place is in the spacious hall on the first floor of a bungalow. Most of the people resting here are the wounded. Because the conditions are simple, there is no ward. There is only a layer of clean sheets under the body and a separate bed.
Everyone fell asleep like this under the blankets.
Ji Zhan saw Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei lying next to them who had not yet woken up. She pointed to Jing Sa outside. Talking here would definitely wake others up.
Jing Sa understood and helped Ji Zhan out.
It was already six o'clock in the afternoon. Ji Zhan had slept for nearly half a day. At this time, his physical strength and energy had almost been completely restored.
Most of the injuries on his body were minor. There was only a bullet-grazed wound on his right ankle, which was slightly more serious and would take a day or two to heal.
Jing Sa went to get a basin of water for Ji Zhan. Due to limited conditions, Ji Zhan had to help Ji Zhan if he wanted to wash up and wash his hair.
Ji Zhan squatted on the first step, lowered her head and lowered her long hair, and asked Jing Sa to pour water on her head.
It was obviously the first time Jing Sa had done this kind of thing, and he accidentally poured too much water, which hit Ji Zhan's entire head.
Jing Sa took a step back with a guilty conscience. Ji Zhan stood up, pulled back the long hair covering his face like a water ghost, then spit out the water in his mouth, looked at Jing Sa speechlessly, and said:
"I just want to wash my hair, not my brain."
Jing Sa touched the tip of his nose, then resigned to his fate and went to get water for Ji Zhan again.
There is still a well in this village that has not dried up, and the water quality is still usable. This is one of the reasons why the logistics team chose to establish a temporary base here.
Jing Sa quickly returned with another basin of water for Ji Zhan. Although this time he was still not very skillful, he allowed Ji Zhan to wash his hair.
"You eat something first, and I'll help you clean your hair."
Jing Sa handed the dry food to Ji Zhan, then borrowed a clean towel for Ji Zhan from nowhere, and stood behind Ji Zhan to wipe her hair.
Ji Zhan looked down at the compressed biscuits in his hand and was stunned for a moment.
This was the first time she had been taken care of like this.
Ji Zhan took a bite of the compressed biscuit that was so hard that it almost broke his teeth, thinking that this feeling was not bad at all.
After cleaning up briefly, Ji Zhan turned around and saw that Zhao Ziwei and Qi Huan were still awake, so he took a sniper rifle and went to the mountain behind with Jing Sa to check the situation.
Along the way, she also saw abandoned fields on the mountains, and she couldn't help but feel pity. She said to Jing Sa: "In the first year of the establishment of the fifth base, in order to alleviate the food crisis, a farming area was set aside at the outer base, but that
A little land is far from enough to feed 100,000 people."
"People who can't get food can only go outside the base to look for food. At that time, there was still a lot of food to collect outside, but the survival rate of those who went out to look for food was only 40%."
Although people in the outer base do not have terminals, they still have ways to obtain base information. The newspaper posted at the door of the office every day is one of them. When Ji Zhan comes out of school every day, he likes to stop there and read.
The uncle at the subdistrict office often leaked information to her.
"The next year the base gained the ability to resist monsters, and it planned to expand the base outwards, just to have more land for farming and hoarding food. That battle mobilized almost 70% of the armed forces at the time
strength.
"The battle lasted for a month. In the end, the base won. Everyone had more land to grow food, but only less than half of the people returned from the war. No one knows whether this result is considered a victory."
When Lan Qian was brought into the inner base, Ji Zhan's only reason for resisting the inner base was that she was worried that she would meet people from the research institute, but she did not resist the managers of the inner base.
Maybe those managers were not completely kind, nor were they 100% wise, but for at least the past three years, what Ji Zhan had seen was that they led the humans in the base to constantly struggle to survive in the apocalypse.
Ji Zhan talked about some past things in the base, which could be regarded as popular science for Jing Sa, and the two climbed to the top of the mountain.
The golden light of the setting sun illuminates the sky, the evening wind blows from afar, and the knee-length weeds underfoot sway gently like reeds by the lake.
The half-dry long hair on Ji Zhan's back was also blown up. Jing Sa stood behind Ji Zhan, thinking of the expectation that was unconsciously revealed in Ji Zhan's eyes when he spoke just now.
Obviously, Ji Zhan is looking forward to the future of the Fifth Security Base. There may be some dissatisfaction, but she is also very satisfied with her life at the base in the past three years.
Jing Sa suddenly asked: "Do you want to stay at the fifth base forever?"
Ji Zhan looked back at Jing Sa, straightforward and calm, "If one day they regard you as their enemy, I will take you away."
