Chapter 161 Settled

"I, I don't want to be the Minister of Logistics, I want to fight."&t;p>

Looking at Hu Tao's solemn expression, Gu Yu and I didn't speak. My mother patted Hu Tao's arm and said that there would be a chance in the future.&t;p>

Hu Tao nodded and followed his mother to the kitchen. The two cooking rooms were half open, and the food was filled with fragrance. Although there was no oil, the taste of stewed with vegetables and marinated meat still attracted a lot of appetite.&t;p>

Even I, a zombie who has lost interest in food, wanted to serve it with a bowl and try it, but I just thought that there was not much food collected along the way, so I naturally could not consume meaninglessly.&t;p>

This evening was our dinner since the attack on the riverside. More than 20 people crowded in a room to eat. I held Nini and Gu Yu and sat together.&t;p>

Although Long Tao and Li Huaiqing have woken up, their physical strength has not fully recovered. Like me, they don’t have to eat, just to run down to join in the fun.&t;p>

Hu Tao and A Ying were responsible for sharing the meals for everyone, and they sat at a table with Zheng, Zhou Li and Zhang Jianing.&t;p>

The child whom and A Ying rescued, put on a bench and put a table together. Except for us who were just sitting and watching, everyone else wanted to find a dining table.&t;p>

Cao Baoyang was still around my neck. He was not interested in human food, but he was very curious about Nini and talked to her from time to time.&t;p>

I have already explained his changing abilities and life experience to everyone, but others have not seen his true form yet. He doesn't seem to want to be exposed to others. I think he needs time to adapt to the new environment, so he didn't say anything.&t;p>

Everyone was eating and chatting, and the content was almost all about the future, which house is suitable for long-term living, which piece of land will be planted in the future, etc.&t;p>

Listening to these trivial chats, I couldn't help but lean on Gu Yu's shoulder. Pastoral life is desirable, and hope is immortal, and there is always a possibility of realization.&t;p>

The room was burning warm and the window was covered with white mist. I was not sleepy, but I felt soft all over. I leaned against Gu Yu and didn't want to move.&t;p>

Xiao Han sat in the wheelchair I picked up. He ate very quickly and no one chatted. He swallowed four compressed biscuits in a few bites, and almost drank the soup from the bowl. After wiping his mouth, he rolled the wheelchair to me.&t;p>

I saw that he had something to say, but sat up straight and asked him first what was wrong?&t;p>

"King——"&t;p>

"Don't, you're not a zombie, don't call me that."&t;p>

"Okay, Miss Sang, I have something to tell you."&t;p>

I nodded and heard him continue, "My friend also has an older brother, an expert. He is a meteorite researcher. When the disaster explodes, people are everywhere. Can you help me find out about this person?"&t;p>

"Is it urgent?"&t;p>

"No, no, I just want to verify something from him. Of course, if others are gone... there is nothing I can do."&t;p>

Judging from Xiao Han's expression, he was very eager to find this person, or rather, he was very eager to verify that matter, saying "No hurry" but his eyes could not deceive people.&t;p>

"He also studied the origin stone?"&t;p>

"Yes, he is my senior. The first mother stone was revealed by him. He also found the person who can be accepted by the mother stone."&t;p>

Source stone is of great significance to me, but now it seems that it has an impact on Gu Yu, but Xiao Han has been in contact with Source stone for a short time. The information he told me was also heard from the seniors in the same group. The person he was looking for should know Source stone better than him.&t;p>

"That's it. I'll ask for you if I have the chance, but I won't go there in a short period of time. You have to wait."&t;p>

"Thank you." He paused, and he added: "Thank you very much."&t;p>

Maybe she slept well and ate full, Xiao Han’s face was less haggard and more spirited. The people in the house were all from the Pure Land. We were all together for so long, and there was no mess. For a few days, everyone took good care of Xiao Han.&t;p>

Actually, I know very well that it is easy to deal with if there is a small number of people. Now these people can work together, because they are not short of food, and because there is no other group of survivors joining.&t;p>

To put it bluntly, everyone is acquaintances and is protected by us all the way, so naturally there is no one to make trouble.&t;p>

One monk carries water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink. The principles left by their predecessors are all about experience.&t;p>

If you want to stay in troubled times, relying on the people in front of you alone is far from enough. Not to mention Duhe’s safety zone, let’s talk about the Song family, Qin Dong and the mysterious customers who come and go to the Xianyi Pavilion, the forces behind them are all the driving force that urges me to strengthen my team and improve my strength.&t;p>

My mind was circling around and decided to give these people a shot first. When they had enough food and drink, I stood up.&t;p>

"Listen to me to tell me something." I raised my voice a little, attracted everyone's attention, and then lowered the monotony: "Now the advanced zombies and mutant animals are stronger than before, and the battle between various forces will become more and more intense. The last raid made us lose our individuals, and the people had just awakened their supernatural powers. I think everyone knows the current situation."&t;p>

I observed the expressions of everyone and confirmed that no one showed any 'opposition', and then said: "For the safety of the camp and everyone, we need to recruit more survivors, especially those with supernatural powers."&t;p>

Everyone knows what kind of consequences will be without the protection of the psychics. Not to mention dealing with mutated animals and zombies, it is enough to encounter robbers and bandits alone, and it may not be guaranteed to become food for others.&t;p>

Resource sharing is inevitable, and someone proposed the distribution of houses, food and land. There were many empty houses in the small town, but for the sake of easy management in the future, they could not be allowed to live there.&t;p>

It is too troublesome to calculate the number of meters by the number of people, so in the end, we calculate the number of rooms by the room. One person occupies one room and two people can get a set of two houses and one kitchen by living together.&t;p>

Just because I want a house, I can’t eat big pot meals anymore. I can get the ingredients back to my home to make them. After all, there are many adults and I am not a child who needs someone to take care of me.&t;p>

Without external threats, being able to live independently is the most basic thing. Those who need people to take care of themselves, such as Grandpa Han and Nini, who need to be taken care of, will temporarily live in hotels.&t;p>

The child A Ying picked up was named Wang Qi. He was not very young but very sensible. Today, he was taking care of Li Huaiqing alone, so Li Huaiqing proposed to let the child live in the same house with him.&t;p>

The hotel rooms are basically standard rooms, one room with two beds, one room with A Ying and Zhang Jianing, one room with parents, one room with Long Tao and Hu Tao, and another room with Xiao Han when Grandpa Han first came. Although I wanted to disassemble Long Tao and Hu Tao and let them take care of the elderly and disabled people separately, Grandpa Han disagreed no matter what he said. He said he was a burden. If he didn't let him do something, he would have no shame to eat in the future.&t;p>

Of course we didn't think he was a burden, but we were afraid that he would feel burdened, so we let him take care of Xiao Han.&t;p>

There were a few other people, each forming a team to divide the room, and only six people went out to live alone.&t;p>

Gu Yu and I each occupied two large bed rooms, which were the only two "deluxe" rooms in the hotel. The remaining two single rooms were as small as mice's nests. We are not unable to live in, so there is really no need to let ourselves down.&t;p>

There is naturally a reason to live in a big bed room. I threw Cao Baoyang to Gu Yu, and I took Nini with me. The two children could not live alone, so I could only share the shares with Gu Yu.&t;p>

Cao Baoyang was a little reluctant at first, but at his age, he would definitely have slept in the same room before the end of the world. I would never develop the habit of sleeping with his "mother" as old as he was.&t;p>

"Go, this is your dad, sooner or later, you will get familiar with it." I pushed Cao Baoyang, who had changed back to the original state, to Gu Yu.&t;p>

"...Dad, Dad?" Cao Baoyang's expression was a little cramped, but the simple words showed his anxiety.&t;p>

"Yes." Gu Yu responded, bent over and took Cao Baoyang's hand: "It's time to go to bed."&t;p>

Gu Yu is not good at coaxing children, but I can still hear that his tone is deliberately soft, as if Cao Baoyang, who looks like a ghost child, is just an ordinary child.&t;p>

Cao Baoyang's hand was held and he called him dad a few more times. The emotions expressed in his voice were different every time. The first three times were doubts, temptations and uncertainties, but the last time was full of joy.&t;p>

He could identify 'mom' through his breath, why was it so hasty to recognize his father? I was puzzled secretly, but then he heard him excitedly say: "I have a father, they said I don't, so I have it!"&t;p>

When I met Cao Baoyang, I did not ask him questions about his father. Now I know that he was a single-parent family, and Shirley was actually a single mother?!&t;p>

He is the age who longs to be with both parents. In another two years, his psychology may change. I patted Nini who was nestled in my arms. She can now say the whole sentence, and the logic is rigorous and the mouth is clear. I suspect this is the rhythm of becoming a sensual.&t;p>

Although the zombies don't need to sleep, they always have to rest. I carried Nini back to the room, and there was heating in the room, which isolated the cold outside the window.&t;p>

The hotel has an independent boiler. The work of burning the boiler is taken on by ordinary survivors. One shift is an hour and two shifts take turns to guide the boiler.&t;p>

Fill the coal in the stove. Before filling the coal next time, you can move freely during this period and sleep for a while at night, which is easier than tidying up supplies.&t;p>

But coal, a non-renewable resource, must not be able to be obtained in the future. If there is no heating in the north in winter, it will not be able to live in people.&t;p>

I put Nini on the bed, and lie by the bed myself, staring at the ceiling and thinking about trivial things and various possibilities in the future.&t;p>

Suddenly, I remembered something I heard in Xintaoyuan - a gas station that has not dried up after several months!&t;p>

Of course, Gu Yu and I both suspected that there might be a 'resource' type of superpower that could create a steady stream of fuel, but later the plan was disrupted by Shangguan Mo and failed to confirm our guess.&t;p>

It is better to have hope than to have hope. Perhaps there are really resource-based superpowers in the world who can not only make fuel, but also gas and coal...&t;p>

Just as she was thinking about it, Nini came out of the quilt, grabbed my arm, and said she wanted to draw.&t;p>

Every time she draws, I dare not neglect. I ran to the counter downstairs to look up the paper and pen, put the paper and pen and her on the table, then took a light breath, watching her depict the "future" that will soon come.&t;p>

&t;p>
