Night falls.

Big camphor tree base.

First outer city, residential building.

Third uncle came over with food and three catties of rice wine.

As the core personnel of the base's external operations, he has some power, and he is also Li Yu's third uncle.

Just talking to Li Yu, Li Yu took the initiative to take two bottles of treasured sauce-flavored liquor for Third uncle and his friends to drink.

Li Yu can also understand that Third uncle has not seen his comrades for many years, and now three of them have come at once.

It is human nature to celebrate.

However, Third uncle did not accept the liquor, but took three catties of rice wine.

According to Third uncle's original words, he was worried that it would not be appropriate to get drunk.

Three catties of liquor, five people drink, an average of more than half a catty, and it is enough to be slightly tipsy.

In addition to food, he also brought a plate of fried peanuts.

Soon, Third uncle arrived at the first outer city residential building.

Jackal and others were already in the larger room, using a few wooden stools and a bed board as a table.

After Uncle San came in, Lao Zhou took the food with a smile and put it on the temporary table.

Uncle San turned around and closed the door. After Xiaoyong and Jackal washed in the bathroom, their appearances changed a lot.

Jackal also cut his long hair into a short cut and trimmed his beard, looking radiant.

After the food was placed, Xiaoyong stared at the braised pig head on the table. The red pig head was shiny.

A tangy aroma.

Gulp!

Xiaoyong swallowed his saliva, but he didn't dare to reach out and eat it.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he lowered his head a little embarrassedly.

After seeing Xiaoyong like this, Uncle San sighed in his heart. After all, he was just a child of seven or eight years old.

So he said gently: "Just eat it. Xiaoyong, eat!"

Xiaoyong didn't reach out to pick it up directly, but looked at his father Xu Chengcai.

The jackal smiled and said, "Eat it."

Xiao Yong stretched out his chopsticks and was about to pick up something, but he suddenly remembered something and looked straight at his uncle.

The uncle was stunned when he saw him looking at him.

He sighed for a moment. In the end times, a child who had been hungry for so long could resist his desire and understand etiquette. It can be seen that the jackal has educated his son very well.

So he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of vegetable and put it in his mouth.

Then he said to everyone, "Why are you still standing there? Do you want me to feed you?"

Uncle San spoke rudely, but they knew that this was a kind gesture.

So they all started eating.

A plate of pork head, a plate of peanuts, two small green vegetables, and a scrambled egg with chopped green onions. A large bag of steamed buns.

Old Zhou put the cup in front of him and took the initiative to pour the wine.

After pouring, he stood up and placed it in front of everyone.

Uncle San leaned forward and said to Lao Zhou: "Lao Zhou, don't bother, come by yourself, don't worry about us, eat by yourself."

Lao Qin also said: "Yes, don't be so reserved, you are my brother, they are also my brothers, we are all brothers."

Uncle San raised his glass, raised it to everyone, and said: "Today, I am very happy that I can meet you in this doomsday and get together again. It's rare. Come on, drink!"

This remark hit Lao Qin and the others' hearts.

So they raised their glasses and said: "Drink!"

Xiao Yong looked at them, picked up his own water, and said: "Drink."

"Hahahahaha."

All the big men were amused by his appearance.

There are a lot of steamed buns, enough to fill you up.

Jackal and Xiao Yong haven't eaten this kind of food for a long time, and they ate it voraciously.

Jackal was okay, he could control himself, but Xiao Yong ate it more hastily.

Lao Qin and the others all knew that before entering the camphor tree base, the days they lived were simply not for human beings.

Uncle San looked at Xiao Yong and suddenly said to Jackal: "Jackal, what are you going to do with Xiao Yong in the future?"

Jackal thought for a while and said: "I don't think there are many children in the outer city. He has been following me, so let's take him with us."

Lao Qin explained on the side: "Actually, it's not true. There are actually many children in the outer city, but they study in the inner city from Monday to Friday every week, and only come out on Saturdays and Sundays."

Originally, there were only teachers in the inner city among the inner and outer cities.

There was Lai Xiyue before, and then there was Teacher Liu. In addition, some other people in the inner city, such as Bai Jie, Anya, and Madi, all had higher academic qualifications, so they taught them knowledge.

There were other combat courses, which were taught by Li Yu, Uncle San, Lao Lu, and Uncle Da in turn.

Second Uncle and Ding Jiu will give them some ideological courses, mainly to instill in them the sense of honor of the Dazhangshu Base, so that they will take the protection of the Dazhangshu Base as the first priority.

Although there is no personal worship, there will still be a core role model, that is Li Yu.

It tells how Li Yu established the base and how he protected everyone.

Later, as the population of the outer city increased, a small room was built in the outer city as a classroom and a few people were found to teach them.

Later, Li Yu felt that this was not okay.

In addition, there are not many children in the outer city at present, so all these children were brought into the inner city for centralized accommodation and teaching.

You can only go out during the weekly field courses, or on Saturdays and Sundays.

This is also a good thing for those in the outer city.

For parents, the most important thing is to care about their children's education. Now that the camphor tree base has helped them solve the problem of education, they have more time to invest in the construction and protection of the camphor tree base.

After Lao Qin explained, the third uncle said: "Yes, there are special teachers in the inner city who can teach some necessary knowledge. In the early stage, you will also learn combat courses. In the later stage, you can choose a major, and then you will be arranged to learn the corresponding professional practical training.

Now there are combat majors, agronomy majors, medical majors, and construction majors. In the future, as the population increases, more majors will definitely be added."

Although the ant came in earlier than the jackal, he had never entered the inner city, so he didn't know these.

After hearing this, he was a little surprised.

Has the camphor tree base reached this step now!

The jackal listened carefully to the third uncle's story. Listening to the things said by the third uncle, the expression on his face became more and more happy.

He has always been worried that the child will not have a childhood if he does not have contact with his peers. He is even more worried that he will not be able to teach Xiaoyong with his limited knowledge. He is afraid that he will not be able to help Xiaoyong develop more comprehensively.

At this time, he heard that there was such a thing in the inner city.

He immediately said: "Can Xiaoyong go too?"

Uncle San nodded and said: "I can decide this matter. No problem."

Xiaoyong, who was originally busy eating, stopped at this time and pulled his father's sleeve and said: "Dad, I don't want to be separated from you. I want to be with you forever."

The jackal was about to persuade him, and the uncle smiled and said: "It's okay, don't worry, wait a few days, those children will come back to the outer city, then let Xiaoyong get to know them, and Xiaoyong will naturally want to study."

He still remembered that He Chao's daughter He Xiaoya was reluctant to leave He Chao at that time, but after only a few days, she met a group of friends of the same age in it. Now if she is asked not to go, she probably won't want to.

Hearing this, the jackal felt that what Uncle San said made sense, so he nodded.

Then he poured a glass of wine for Uncle San, and then poured a full glass for himself, toasted Uncle San and said: "Captain, thank you for everything, it's all in the wine."

Bang!

He drank a glass of water in one gulp.

Uncle San smiled and drank the wine in the glass.

Everyone ate and drank in the room, occasionally chatting about the past, which aroused everyone's memories.

In the inner city.

After dinner, Li Yu came to the basement.

The second floor of the basement.

After seeing that no one was here, he opened the door of the meditation room.

Closed it again and locked it.

Then opened the door to the secret room again.

After walking down a dozen steps, he came to the secret room.

Two months ago, there was a heavy rainstorm, and the flood submerged the bottom of the cliff.

He did not come to check the situation of the secret room here. At this time, the secret room was still the same as he left, without water.

Then he opened a secret door, passed through a hole of dozens of meters, and came to the edge of the cliff, looking at the iron fence still intact.

After the inspection, he saw that the water level of the lake under the cliff had dropped to a very low position, and it was estimated that there was only two meters of water below.

No problem was found, so he returned to the secret room and sealed the sealed steel secret door.

Then he went up the steps, closed the door to the secret room, stayed in the meditation room, and sat quietly on the futon.

Many things have happened recently, and he needs to calm down and think about them one by one.

First of all, the Western Alliance. After solving the Orange Island Head, he also thought about whether to lead the team there and solve this problem directly.

But he knew clearly that the distance of 2,000 kilometers was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and a large number of people had to be carried.

Because now I know the news about the Western Alliance from Hai Chao and Gao Ru a few months ago.

At that time, there was no heavy rain and flood.

I just don’t know what the situation is over there.

So we adopted a wait-and-see approach, raising the vigilance of the big camphor tree base, and strengthening the control of Xincheng and Gan City.

This matter can only wait.

In addition, the second thing is the construction of the third outer city.

At present, the steel transported back by Uncle San and his team is enough to build two more third outer cities.

But since the steel has been found, it must be transported back as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to find it later.

This matter will wait for two days. When Uncle San leads the team out again, there should be three more trips to transport all the steel back.

The third thing is the current personnel changes in the base.

At present, the cooperative staff and non-staff staff are busy with construction and transportation. When they completely help build the third outer city.

At that time, some non-staff staff will inevitably be promoted to outer city staff, and correspondingly, the cooperative staff will also promote some people to become non-staff staff.

In this way, the food pressure will increase.

But fortunately, the greenhouses and indoor planting in the inner city, the first and second outer cities can still be supported.

After the completion of the third outer city, quickly open up new planting areas and build greenhouses, so that more food can be produced.

This is a positive cycle.

It is to first have the ability to feed a larger population, then expand manpower, and then expand the base area, thus once again increasing the capacity to feed a larger population.

After sorting out these, Li Yu stopped thinking.

Sit quietly and stop thinking about anything.

Focus on your breathing, close your eyes, and imagine that you can see the air flowing through your nose and being sucked into your lungs.

Li Yu has been practicing meditation for a while, so he got into it very quickly.

Soon, he reached a deep meditative state.

The mind goes blank and the focus is on breathing.

The body enters a deep rest.

In meditation, one second is stretched ten times, or even dozens of times.

This meditative state lasted for about half an hour.

Half an hour later, Li Yu felt like he had slept for a long time.

Open your eyes and feel refreshed.

He looked at his watch and saw that only half an hour had passed, but several days had passed.

Stand up, full of strength.

So he returned to the room, picked a book from the bookshelf, and read at will.

When the time reached half past ten, he took a shower and went back to bed to rest.

at the same time.

Chenzhou.

In a betel nut factory, factory building.

A bonfire burns in the center.

Everyone chewed expired betel nut without saying a word.

Xiang City is a big province of betel nut, and the locals in Chenzhou also love to eat betel nut.

If you eat too much of betel nut, you will easily get oral diseases.

But this thing is also addictive. Chewing betel nut will make your chest feel tight, but it is very refreshing.

When they came here, they found no food, but they found expired betel nuts in the semi-garage.

Qianlong recalled the hardships along the way and felt a little regretful. Although it was for revenge, more importantly, it was to be able to check that place and see if he could plunder some food or supplies.

However, they walked for eight days on the two thousand kilometers road.

Even when we were in Yongshi, because we couldn't find a station in time in the evening, we were in a hurry and could only find a place to stay for one night.

But who would have thought that there were some problems with this station, and it was not far from the city. In addition, there were more than 300 of them, so zombies were attracted to them in the middle of the night and they broke through the fence.

That night, they lost more than thirty people.

These are the vast majority of the elite members of the Western Conference. Before they can find their enemies, they will reduce their numbers by one-tenth.

Absorbing this lesson, they will look for tonight's garrison point one and a half hours before dark. This temporary search for garrison point will happen again in the province, which will lead to attrition.

tui~

Gan Hu spit out the betel nut in his mouth, and then said to Yao Zuo, who was sitting opposite him: "Yao Zuo, give me a taste of your white wine-popped betel nut. The original flavor is too unpalatable."

Yao Zuo threw the blue packaged betel nut in his hand towards Gan Hu.

Gan Hu took it, took out the betel nut, took a bite, and felt a little better.

There was a faint smell of liquor, but the expired smell was still there.

Qianlong ignored him and turned to Wayne next to him and said: "Captain Wei, we estimate that we will be able to arrive in Gan City tomorrow evening. Do you think we can go directly to Gan City tomorrow evening and capture some people there?" The interrogation said that we should camp near Gan City for one night and wait until the next day. "

Wayne thought for a moment, looked at Yao Zuo, and said, "It depends on the situation then. According to the plan we made before, we are going to be divided into three groups, so I think we should arrive first tomorrow. Near Gan City, and then early in the morning the day after tomorrow, I dispersed to look for some people to see if I could find someone to interrogate.

Wait until the evening of the day after tomorrow, no matter whether we have harvested or not, we will all go back then. "

Qianlong nodded slightly, then raised his head and asked Yao Zuo, who was sitting diagonally across from him: "Yao Zuo, what do you think?"

Yao Zuo said: "I think this idea proposed by Captain Wei is good. Spreading it out in this way can maximize the use of our manpower."

Qian Long nodded, glanced at Gan Hu and said, "Second brother, follow me when the time comes. Don't run around."

He was afraid that once Gan Hu got together with Yao Zuo or Wayne, he was afraid that he would do something impulsively and cause irreversible consequences.

After all, neither of them can control Gan Hu, and only he can control him a little here.

When Gan Hu heard this, he naturally knew his eldest brother's plan.

According to his original thoughts, he wouldn't care what Qianlong and the others thought.

He would take revenge on the person who killed his third brother, no matter how many people there were or how powerful they were.

Even if it costs his life, he will not hesitate.

After a long time, he looked directly at Qianlong and said: "Brother, the third brother's revenge must be avenged!"

Qianlong's eyebrows twitched. Damn it, his third brother was killed. Of course he was also very angry, but if he wanted to take revenge, he would put everyone here.

Their Gan family is doomed.

Most of the elite members of the Western Alliance are here. What to do with the headquarters behind them?

He tends to be rational. No matter how angry he is, he will still put the overall situation first.

So, with a serious expression on his face, he said solemnly, "Second brother, I know how you feel. Third brother is also a member of my family.

Don't I want revenge?

But, before we came out, my father told us not to confront others head-on, but to be careful. The first priority is stability."

Gan Hu curled his lips when he heard what he said, his expression full of disdain.

His own family members were all killed, yet he still pursues stability.

In his opinion, both his eldest brother and his father were a little cold-blooded.

Seeing his expression, Yao Zuo and Wayne looked at each other with some worry in their eyes.

Qianlong even said to him angrily: "Anyway, you must listen to me, and you must obey the command in all actions. We must not act rashly before we understand the strength of the force in Gan City." .

This is on someone else's territory, so we must be careful. Once we find out that they are powerful, we will withdraw.

If we find out that they have granaries, we will find a way to rob the grains first, and then kill them.

You need to understand the key points, do you understand? "

"Oh." Gan Hu said calmly.

When Qian Long saw his attitude, he was even more angry. He stood up suddenly, pointed at Gan Hu and said, "Promise me that you will definitely obey orders. Do you hear me?"

Gan Hu saw his elder brother being so angry, and he probably would have been beaten if his attitude had been worse.

So he pretended to be serious and said: "Okay, I will definitely obey your command and follow your orders. Don't worry, I am not an impulsive person."

When Yao Zuo heard this, he choked on the betel nut saliva, and his whole face turned red instantly.

Pooh!

He spat the betel nut onto the ground with difficulty and almost choked to death.

He didn't believe a word of what Gan Hu just said.

No, not a single punctuation mark can be trusted.

Although Gan Hu is not stupid, his fighting ability is actually quite strong.

However, he is really wanton and impulsive.

Sometimes my brain suddenly twitches and I make a decision directly. The key is to have a stubborn temper that even a cow can't bring back.

well.

Thinking about the time when he and Gan Hu went to Chengzizhou together, he was in tears just thinking about it.

There were dozens of people there. Although there were heavy rains and floods, there were only a few people there when we returned.

The key is, I still walked back on the way back in the end.

He never wanted to go through that miserable experience again.

On the other side, Qianlong received his guarantee, but based on his understanding of the second brother, he felt that the second brother's answer was unreliable.

But he had no choice. He chased him many times along the way and refused to leave.

It's impossible to kill him.

That's his biological brother.

Alas, Qianlong sighed again.

The only thing we can do is to let Gan Hu follow him when the time comes, and watch him closely along the way, hoping that nothing will happen.

The night is quiet.

The nightingale is singing.

At this time, Deng Ben was resting at the temporary station between Xincheng and Ganshi. He looked at the moonlight outside the window and thought of his daughter in the inner city.

With a smile on his face, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.

With his daughter in the inner city, he already feels complete.

My daughter has been smiling more and more recently.

"When my overseas stay ends this week, I can go back to see my daughter."

Deng Ben slowly fell asleep with expectation on his face.
