Chapter 1765: Counting the supplies and retreating from the buffer city!
Jiangnan style, secret space.
The flames burned.
Yu Qiang and others sat around the fire, roasting the fire and eating the Iberian ham that had just been cut.
Yu Qiang finished the Coke in one breath, stuffed a piece of ham into his mouth and stood up.
Pointing to a pile of supplies on the table in front of him, he said to the others:
"Eight hams, each weighing about 8 kilograms, that's 64 kilograms of ham."
"There are ten boxes of dried sea cucumbers."
"There are 19 cans of Coke left."
"Eight cakes of top Pu'er tea."
"Two cans of honey."
"A bag of oats, unopened, I just saw it should be edible."
"Two boxes of nuts."
"Four bags of whole wheat bread, although there are worms, but it shouldn't kill you if you cook it in a pot."
"Three cans of peanut butter, one can of sesame paste, two cans of tomato sauce, two cans of Shacha sauce, five packets of salt, four packets of MSG, one barrel of soy sauce, and two barrels of olive oil."
"There are two bags of rice left, I just opened them and looked at them, all They are all black and moldy. We will think about how to deal with them later."
"As for the other food, they are basically rotten and cannot be eaten at all."
"In addition."
Yu Qiang pointed to the drinks on the bar and said:
"In addition, there are 46 bottles of foreign wine, 2 boxes of classic tables, a box of cigars, and two unopened cigarettes."
He pointed to the open small kitchen next to the bar and said:
"A set of knives, two iron pots"
"That's probably it. The others are not worth much."
After listening to Yu Qiang's story, everyone was radiant.
It's been the seventh year of the apocalypse. It's like pie in the sky to be able to find so many supplies now.
Like ordinary food, after so many years, it's basically rotten.
But this room has been in a closed state, and things like ham and dried sea cucumbers can be kept for a long time.
And the longer they are kept, the better they taste.
The spotted man He Wenjie got up and closed the window next to him.
He asked Yu Qiang: "Captain Yu, there is still such a heavy snow outside. Although we have food now, we have to brave such heavy snow and walk 700 to 800 kilometers to a place we have never been to."
"Why not stay here? At least, this place is spacious and there is no danger for the time being. How about we go to the oil city after the snow is over?"
As soon as this was said, the others looked at Yu Qiang.
They were able to escape death, all thanks to Yu Qiang.
And now Yu Qiang is the captain, whether to leave or stay depends mainly on Yu Qiang.
Yu Qiang sat on the leather sofa and wrapped himself in a blanket.
He found this blanket in the bedroom.
He looked at the white outside the window. The building opposite was already frozen, and even the windows were long icicles.
"Okay, then we will stay here, and we will go to the oil city after the snow is over!"
"Great!" Little Radish Head stood up excitedly.
Everyone smiled. No one wanted to travel long distances in such cold weather and snowstorms.
Wouldn't it be nice to stay indoors, warm yourself by the fire, drink some wine and sleep?
The old man looked up at the ventilation duct they came down from, his eyes flickered and he asked Zhuang Qian:
"Zhuang Qian, when you finally climbed into this floor of ventilation duct, did you install the elevator baffle back?"
Zhuang Qian nodded and said, "It's installed back, don't worry, and I remember that when we left the toilet upstairs, we also pressed the vent ceiling back."
He Wenjie said with some concern:
"But when we ran into the toilet, two people from the Fortress of Hope saw us. I wonder if they will find that we slipped away from the toilet ventilation duct."
"The probability is relatively low, very low."
Yu Qiang analyzed:
"The route of the ventilation duct is extremely complicated, and we climbed down from the elevator shaft. It should be difficult for them to think that we would come down from the elevator shaft."
"Even if we come down from the elevator shaft, there are so many floors in this building, they can't search one floor at a time, and there are zombies in these buildings, they won't seek death."
Everyone nodded, they all felt that what Yu Qiang said made sense.
After all, this building is more than 400 meters high. The group of people in the Fortress of Hope is more than 400 meters high, while they are in the middle sphere of more than 100 meters, nearly 300 meters apart, and there are unknown numbers of floors in between.
Moreover, the path they just climbed down is not replicable.
Any accident on the way may lead to death.
He Wenjie looked around the space, and there were some wooden tables and cabinets that could be burned.
But this couldn't last too long, so he asked Yu Qiang:
"Captain, do you know where the switch to the outside of this secret space is?"
Yu Qiang heard him ask this question and said nervously:
"What do you want to do? We just saw the situation outside. There are many zombies on this floor. We can't open the door to the outside."
He Wenjie quickly explained:
"I'm worried that we are running out of fuel. When we climbed in just now, I saw a lot of wooden tables and chairs outside. We can leave one person back to the ventilation duct to investigate the situation, and the others open the door to the restaurant outside and move those wooden tables, chairs and benches in to burn."
Yu Qiang thought for a while and said:
"You can, but don't be in a hurry. Let's eat something first, then have a good sleep. When we are in better condition, we can open the door and move the tables and chairs in."
Gurgle~
Just at this moment, the water in the iron pot boiled, and the oats in it rolled, and waves of oatmeal aroma came to the nose.
Yu Qiang took a spoon and distributed a bowl of oatmeal porridge to everyone.
They haven't eaten this kind of decent food for a long time.
Little Radish Head took a sip without caring about the scalding mouth, and he wanted to vomit, but he couldn't bear to do it.
So he opened his mouth and exhaled hard.
"Eat slowly, don't burn your esophagus." The old man was stirring the oatmeal porridge slowly with a spoon next to him, and reminded Little Radish Head.
It took Little Radish Head a long time to swallow the oatmeal porridge.
His ears were red, and he sat on the sofa and imitated the old man, picking up a spoon and stirring the oatmeal porridge slowly.
But his eyes were eagerly staring at the oatmeal porridge, wanting to drink it quickly.
Zhuang Qian carried the oatmeal porridge and walked to the window sill, looking at the flying snow outside, and fell into deep thought.
The space capsule three hundred meters above.
The rebellion of the "food" was finally suppressed, and the leader of the Hope Fortress, Ke Weiyi, looked gloomy.
Looking at the old fifth Huang Biao who was in charge of the No. 2 grain warehouse this time, he cursed:
"What's going on? I asked you to kill all the food in the No. 2 warehouse, why did the food in the No. 34 warehouse come out?"
In their eyes, the other survivors were food, not much different from a pig or a sheep.
Huang Biao saw the leader was angry, and he was worried. He answered with a stiff face:
"We just found out that a small number of survivors in the No. 2 grain warehouse instigated others to cause a riot. When we just opened the door of the grain warehouse, these people rushed out."
"In the chaos, they let the people in the No. 34 grain warehouse out. I suspect that it was those people who opened the grain warehouse, which led to the chaos."
"Who?"
Ke Weiyi gritted his teeth, his eyes seemed to be spewing anger.
"Where are those people?"
If he caught them, he would skin them alive.
When Huang Biao heard the leader ask this question, his waist bent deeper.

"Boss, boss, the gang didn't find their bodies, it's like they disappeared out of thin air."
"How could they disappear! What nonsense are you talking about! Trash! Really trash!"
At this time, the men next to the second black bear leaned close to the black bear's ear and said a few words.
Black Bear raised his eyebrows, walked out and said:
"Chief, my men just saw a few people escape into the toilet, but after they broke open the toilet, they disappeared and found traces of movement in the vents on the ceiling."
"Those people may have entered the ventilation duct."
"Ventilation duct on the ceiling?"
Ke Weiyi raised his head and looked at the top of his head, pointing at the ceiling and said:
"You mean, those people may be right above our heads?"
"Yes."
Ke Weiyi was instantly furious when he heard that. Right above their heads, if they fell asleep at any time, those people might jump down from their heads and attack them at any time?
"Tear down the ceiling for me, send people to climb into the ventilation duct to search! We must find their traces!" Ke Weiyi shouted loudly.
Seeing that the leader was so angry, his men didn't dare to say anything and quickly dispersed to look for Yu Qiang and others.
However, even though they spent several hours tearing down the ceiling, they still didn't find Yu Qiang and others.
The people who climbed up the ventilation ducts drilled around in the ducts and finally found the elevator shaft. They looked at the bottomless, dark elevator shaft and felt terrified.
It was hundreds of meters below, and if they fell down, they would die.
They guessed that those people might have escaped from the elevator shaft, but the elevator shaft led to dozens of rooms below, and there were zombies in the lower floors. If they rashly ran into the elevator shaft, they would definitely be surrounded by zombies.
They had to investigate further, and they could only find those people by clearing out the zombies from floor to floor.
Upon learning the result, Ke Weiyi was furious and immediately killed several survivors to vent.
"It just so happens that we are short of fuel now. From today, we will clean up downstairs and use the killed zombies as fuel!"
"Yes." The men dared not to listen.
Trading Market Wengcheng.
Cao Le stood at the gate of Wengcheng, holding a walkie-talkie to repeatedly confirm whether all the people on the buffer city wall had returned.
"Wait a minute, I'm still counting the number of people." Zhang Rufeng replied after receiving Cao Le's inquiry.
Zhang Rufeng put the walkie-talkie in his arms, turned around and asked Adong next to him:
"Adong, how is the head count going? Are all of them here?"
Adong quickly replied:
"There is still one group missing. I have contacted them. Their truck has stalled. I sent two trucks to pick them up."
"I give up." Zhang Rufeng looked at the guard on duty who got off the car and shouted to Dongfeng on the opposite side:
"Dongfeng, there is still one group missing, but they are almost there. Why don't you let these people withdraw first?"
"It's so cold, it's not a good idea to stand here and wait."
After hearing his shout, Dongfeng nodded and said:
"Okay, let these people disperse."
After that, Dongfeng sent someone to notify these people and let them leave.
These people are all level 4 and 5 members who were recruited to the wall. Although they were temporarily asked to come down, the points are still calculated based on six full hours.
They all go to the mission hall to collect their points.
Now the weather is too cold, and the oil city will not distribute food to them, and transportation is inconvenient.
Simply convert the food into points for them, and let them go to the mission hall to collect the points they earned that day.
In the past, meals were provided, and they could get 0.6 points for one shift. Now, with two tortillas, they can get 1.1 points.
In this way, they can distribute the points in their hands more freely, but there will be an extra process, that is, they need to go to Shop No. 2 to buy tortillas by themselves, and they must buy them in advance.
Otherwise, if they have problems with physical exhaustion during their shift, they will be immediately fired from their shift.
After hearing that they could leave, Zhang Feng, Wang Ou and others walked together to the mission hall of the trading market.
The mission hall is about 500 meters away from here, and it is a long way to walk there.
These level 4 and 5 members who just came down from the wall basically went to the same place after get off work, the mission hall.
One advantage of working in the oil city is that you are paid by the day, not by the month.
For some survivors of the trading market, if they were paid by the month, they would not live to that time and would have starved to death.
Snowflakes were flying.
They walked towards the northern area of the trading market in a large group.
On the way, several snowplows roared past.
They stepped on the snow, one deep and one shallow.
Zhang Feng looked at the trading market wall, turned his head and said to Wang Ou:
"Just now when we entered the city wall, we saw the next shift of people on duty, they have already gone up, they are so fast."
Wang Ou also looked up at the trading market wall in the distance, there were indeed many more patrol personnel on it than before.
Previously, due to the buffer city wall guards, the guards on the trading market wall were reduced a lot.
Now that all the guards on the buffer city have been withdrawn, the trading market has become the outermost layer of defense, and naturally the troops are concentrated in the trading market.
Wang Ou nodded and said:
"I just don't know which group is so unlucky. I just heard them say that the engine has a problem and it has stalled."
"Who cares? I just want to get the points quickly, then go to the bathhouse to take a hot bath and sleep comfortably. It's too cold today." Zhang Feng covered his nose and said in a dull voice.
His nose was frostbitten and cracked, and it hurt when the wind blew.
"I have a box of lard ointment here. I'll apply some to you later?" Wang Ou said.
Zhang Feng was surprised and said, "Is that thing useful?"
"Hey! What you said, of course it's useful. If it's not useful, why would I buy it? It's too expensive. It's just a little bit, and it cost me a whole point, but the effect is quite good." Wang Ou took out a small box from his arms.
"I'll bring it to you later."
"Okay, thanks!"
