Chapter 1038 Ma Laoliu

After the blizzard ended, the temperature not only did not get warmer, but instead became colder.

The snow melts very slowly under the sun's rays.

The snow also became harder and harder, gradually condensing into lumps of ice.

Big camphor tree base.

Li Yu stood on the wall and touched the ice bumps on the wall, feeling his hands were a little cold.

"Second uncle, it's better not to clean up the snow outside the city. It's too early now, and it might snow again later." Li Yu said to his second uncle beside him.

When the second uncle heard this, he frowned and asked, "You mean, are you worried that it will continue to snow in the future?"

"Yes, it's still December. If it snows again, we will spend so much effort clearing the snow outside the wall, and it will be buried again by then." Li Yu replied.

The second uncle thought for a while and then replied: "But if we don't clean up, we won't be able to get out at all, and we won't be able to continue building the fourth outer city."

"And if it really snows again, as you said, we won't have anywhere to put the snow in the city. By then, the snow thickness will reach six to seven meters deep, and it will be difficult for snowplows to operate."

Li Yu looked at the small snowy mountains on both sides of the greenhouse in the first outer city inside the wall, with a thoughtful look on his face.

What the second uncle said is indeed a problem.

It will take a long time for the snow to melt naturally. The temperature is still tens of degrees below zero. The snow will not melt under the sunlight, but will condense into ice.

To melt, we probably have to wait until the temperature rises above freezing.

Thinking of this, Li Yu nodded and said:

"Okay, then let's do what you said, Uncle Second, start all the snow plows in the base, clear the snow around the base, and clear the snow out of the city."

Hearing that Li Yu agreed to his suggestion, the second uncle breathed a sigh of relief.

When he came from the inner city of the base, he felt a little scared when he looked at the thick snow on both sides of the road.

After all, if the snow collapses, it might be buried directly.

In fact, there are many ways to melt snow, using chemical reagents to change the melting point of snow, or using hot water.

Before the end of the world, many places in the north used the method of salting snow, which was pollution-free and more efficient in melting snow.

But in this apocalyptic world, salt is a war preparation material. Even if it is industrial salt, Li Yu is not willing to use it.

"Second Uncle, let He Bing and the others come up with a plan. If we just rely on truck by truck to transport the snow, it will be too slow and consume too much fuel.

It would be better to install some conveyor belts to transport the snow to the cliff faster. "Li Yu thought for a while and said to his second uncle.

After hearing Li Yu's thoughts, the second uncle nodded and said:

"Okay, then I will make arrangements now to clear the snow as soon as possible. The fourth outer city has been built for too long, and now it is only about a hundred meters short. If it is built one day earlier, the greenhouse can be built earlier. .”

"How many months has it been since the fourth outer city was built?" Li Yu asked when his second uncle said this.

The second uncle made an estimate and replied: "It's been five months. Construction started in the summer. It's been so long in the blink of an eye.

So much manpower has been invested in it. If it weren't for the natural disasters that come from time to time, we should have built it long ago. "

Li Yu was silent.

I thought to myself: It is really not easy to build infrastructure in the last days.

Not only do you have to face the threat of zombies, but you also have to overcome the effects of natural disasters.

After discussing with Li Yu, the second uncle on the other side left the wall and went to the second outer city to make arrangements.

The concrete on the fence was covered with ice, forming an ice wall.

It is very slippery, and when viewed from a distance, it glows golden due to the refraction of sunlight.

Great Northwest.

Folk customs have been quite strong since ancient times.

In the last days, many ruthless people have emerged.

They adapted very quickly to the end of the world and established their power early.

Three years after the end of the world, an extremely powerful warlord appeared in the northwest.

Ma Laoliu is the sixth eldest child in the family.

With amazing means, he dominated Wuquan Mountain, controlled the entire Lan City, and even extended his influence to Gan Province.

Hilltop villa.

Ma Laoliu rubbed his hands and looked at the steaming leg of lamb in front of him.

He picked up a dagger, cut off a piece of mutton, and stuffed it into his mouth.

The mutton has a strong fishy smell, but this is what he likes.

It doesn't seem to be very enjoyable.

He then nailed the dagger in his hand to the table.

The tail of the dagger swayed, which was enough to show how strong he was.

Picking up the leg of lamb with one hand, he started to chew on it.

He bit hard with his teeth, and he instantly bit off a large piece of meat from the stewed soft lamb leg.

The mouth is bulging and oily.

Next to it is a bottle of Jinhui wine.

Jinhui 50% Jinhui 28-year-old strong-flavor liquor.

This Jinhui wine has a long history. Legend has it that it was the wine that soldiers drank in celebration after winning battles in ancient times.

But there were no drinking vessels.

So they used the helmets on their heads, so Jin Hui Wine is also called Jin Helm Wine.

Crash--

He poured himself a large bowl of white wine.

Then he took a big sip.

The 50% liquor is not as spicy as the 63% liquor, but it is still quite powerful.

A large mouthful of white wine entered his mouth, and he hadn't finished chewing the mutton in his mouth.

The fusion of white wine and mutton creates another flavor.

Gudong!

Swallow it in one gulp.

Ma Laoliu slapped the table and shouted loudly: "It feels so damn good!"

His words and deeds are quite heroic as if he were traveling eastwards.

He has a typical Chinese character face, a high nose bridge, and rough skin. He looks unruly and arrogant.

"Sir, the snow has stopped outside. Do we want it?"

A man in a large leather coat ran in from outside. After entering, he leaned over and said to Ma Laoliu.

Ma Laoliu raised his eyebrows and cursed:

"It's going to stop. It won't get any warmer for a while. Don't worry about that shit. Come here and have a drink with me!"

"Ah this."

"Drink!" Ma Laoliu slammed the table and shouted.

"Gudonggu!" The subordinate poured himself a bowl of Jinhui wine, and then drank the whole bowl.

"What are you doing?" Ma Laoliu looked at his men and asked with an evil look in his eyes.

"You, you asked me to drink with you."

"Did I let you drink from my treasure? I'm not even willing to drink like you do, you're doing evil, you bastard, get out of here!"

Ma Laoliu stood up and kicked his subordinate's butt.

The subordinate looked a little embarrassed, patted his butt and stood up.

About to leave.

Ma Laoliu suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

"?"

The men turned their heads to look at Ma Laoliu in confusion.

Whoosh——

A big sheep head flew over.

He caught it hurriedly.

"Thank you, brother!"

Ma Laoliu's eyes were bright and he said quietly: "The big horse monkey in Xishan, give him an ultimatum. If he doesn't surrender, he will die when the ice and snow melt."

The man bit off the sheep's nose and said vaguely: "I understand."

"get out."

"Okay."

After his men left, Ma Laoliu took another sip of liquor.

He slowly bit into the mutton and murmured:

"Hmph, who would have thought that in this end of the world, I, Ma Laoliu, would be able to get into this position? What a fucking fate, God has been really good to me!"

Northern Commonwealth.

Governor's Palace.

Yuan Zhi looked at the humble gentleman Sima Dong in front of him.

I feel a little tired in my heart.

If a person is very deep, but someone sees it, it will make people feel stupid.

Some people try hard to make themselves look like good people, but they always seem to be wrong and appear particularly fake.

This is due to the lack of cultivation.

And the Sima Dong in front of him had this tone.

"I wonder why the governor came to me?" Sima Dong said to Yuan Zhi.

Yuan Zhi glanced at Fan Haiyang behind him.

Then he asked: "I heard that your father died of illness. I am an old friend with him. Now that he is gone, I don't know if you can handle the huge affairs of yours. If you need help, just tell me. , as your elder, it is my duty to take care of you."

After hearing what Yuan Zhi said, Sima Dong cursed the old fox in his heart.

So nicely said.

He didn't even visit his father when he died, but now he says he is an old friend.

It's called taking care of, and it definitely means wanting the weapons and equipment in your hands.

Sima Liang and Yuan Zhi discovered a large military base together. Yuan Zhi took away most of it and Sima Liang took away a small part.

This laid the foundation for the Northern Federation.

Now that his father has just left, this Yuan Zhi is so impatient?

For a time, he had a lot of thoughts in his head.

Suddenly he felt someone pulling his clothes behind him.

It was Zhuang Yunqiao who came with me.

After taking a look at Zhuang Yunqiao, he woke up.

He hasn’t answered Yuan Zhi’s words yet.

"Uncle Yuan, you're welcome. We are fine now, so we don't need your help."

Sima Dong quickly replied.

Yuan Zhi smiled softly.

Seemingly remembering something, he continued to ask:

"I heard that you sent an expedition team to the Da Zhangshu base in the south?"

"?"

Sima Dong was a little confused as to how they knew this.

Thinking about it carefully, it was probably the chief guard at the outer wall who told Yuan Zhi.

The expedition was organized by his younger brother, and he didn't know much about it.

So he replied: "It seems that there is such a thing, but this matter is mainly handled by my brother."

Yuan Zhi nodded and asked:

"How's it going? What did the expedition team say? What's that Big Zhangshu base like?"

Sima Dong turned his head and glanced at Zhuang Yunqiao. Zhuang Yunqiao shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Sima Dong then said: "Uncle Yuan, this matter is mainly handled by my brother, and I don't know the details."

"Well, I have reminded Lao Liang before, telling him not to always think about robbing others through force. The future trend must be win-win cooperation. Only by uniting can we go further. The future of mankind lies with us. We must."

Hearing Yuan Zhi begin to teach him, Sima Dong lowered his head and pretended to be listening carefully.

But in his heart he was full of dissatisfaction.

cooperate?

The eldest brother does not talk about the second brother.

In his opinion, Yuan Zhi's cooperation was not much different from that of the Sima family. The essence was to annex others and strengthen oneself.

"Uncle Yuan said that." Sima Dong lowered his head and said.

Yuan Zhi nodded with satisfaction and said:

"You are more sensible than your brother. The future of the Sima family still depends on you. If anyone needs my help in the future, just ask, and I, as your uncle, will definitely help you."

Ah!

If you wouldn't always think about annexing us, I would burn incense.

Sima Dong secretly thought.

Just as he was meditating secretly, Yuan Zhi, who was sitting opposite him, spoke again:

"By the way, talk to your brother and meet me when you have time, if he still doesn't want to meet me because of what happened last time.

Then help me ask if the expedition team you sent out has come back, and what is the origin of the Da Zhangshu Base?"

Hearing what Yuan Zhi said, Sima Dong keenly smelled an unusual smell.

Yuan Zhi also cares so much about the Da Zhangshu Base. Is it possible that the Da Zhangshu Base is really fat?

Otherwise, with his urinary nature, he would definitely not pay so much attention to a place.

"Okay, no problem. I'll talk to my brother when I get back."

Obviously, he also felt that it was unlikely that his younger brother would meet Yuan Zhi.

After all, there had been some minor conflicts between the younger brother and Yuan Zhi before, and the younger brother was directly beaten and his face was lost.

Yuan Zhi smiled and nodded: "Okay, that kid Xiaoxi, I did it for his own good before and let him grow up a little. I hope he won't hate me."

"No, no, no, if Uncle Yuan has nothing else to do, I'll leave first."

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

"no, I'm fine."

Sima Dong breathed a sigh of relief after returning to his control area.

Although he had made many preparations, if Yuan Zhi wanted to detain him, he could also have some countermeasures.

But after such a trip, he was still a little frightened.

"What do you think that old guy Yuan Zhi is going to do? He asked Da Zhangshu Base inexplicably. What do you think?" Sima Dong asked Yun Qiao next to him.

Yun Qiao thought for a while and said: "That old guy is not a good person. He will try to get any benefit he sees. I suspect that the old guy must have sent someone to the Da Zhangshu base and did not come back. That's why Will want to get information from us.”

"Um?"

Sima Dong thought for a while, then said:

"What you said makes sense. My brother and Yuan Zhi are so enthusiastic about this Big Camphor Tree Base. It seems that this Big Camphor Tree Base is a bit interesting."

Yun Qiao couldn't help but said: "Master, Sima Xi originally wanted to go to the Da Zhangshu base, and that old guy Yuan Zhi probably also wanted to go there and join in.

You think, if they all run away, will our chance come in this northern federation?"

Sima Dong's eyes lit up, he licked his mouth and said greedily: "It's interesting. What you said is interesting, haha. Come, come to the room and discuss your thoughts in detail."

Yun Qiao nodded and followed Sima Dong into the room.

Governor's Palace.

Yuan Zhi's face did not have the smile he had just faced Sima Dong, but instead had a gloomy expression.

"There has been no news from Haiyang, Da Dao and the others for more than a month. I know him well. He will definitely not betray me and will definitely find a way to complete the mission. There is no news yet. It is very likely that they have fallen into the hands of the Da Zhangshu Base! "

Fan Haiyang also looked a little worried. After hearing what Yuan Zhi said, he said:

"Governor, the snow outside hasn't melted yet, so we can't send anyone out."

Before Fan Haiyang finished speaking, Yuan Zhi said:

"Then send a helicopter over! No matter what, I want to see Da Dao and the others alive and dead!"
