"Huzi, has he been cold for a long time?"

"Uh~" Opening the lid of the pot, Wen Quanxin looked up and thought for a while. He seemed to be unsure about the result, so he shouted angrily at Wu Chao opposite him: "That Ah Chao, Huzi has about 4 colds. It’s been 5 days, right?”

Nodding slightly, Wu Chaofei replied affirmatively, "Today is the fourth day."

"Day 4~" Tang Xiaoquan muttered silently, and his eyebrows became more and more frowned.

"Well, when it comes to the end of the world, the most miserable ones are the children of Huzi's age. They have just developed their own thoughts and are beginning to understand the world. Who knew that such a thing would happen? It's really... Alas~" After a long sigh, Lin Muye's old face was covered with sadness.

Tang Xiaoquan didn't pay attention to what the old man said. His attention was completely immersed in his own thoughts. As his thoughts continued to deepen, the expression on his face became more solemn.

"Hey, Quan Zi, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Seeing his brother's strange behavior, Wang Qiang asked with concern.

"Ah?" Tang Xiaoquan was slightly startled and responded almost subconsciously. Only when he looked up and saw Wang Qiang's worried eyes did he realize his gaffe.

"Haha, it's okay, I'm thinking about something," Tang Xiaoquan scratched his head with a smile. Tang Xiaoquan looked embarrassed, but because he had something on his mind, he quickly regained his seriousness and immediately changed the subject: "Well, Uncle Lin, why don't you ask Hu Zi to come out and bask in the sun? It's not good in the old tent."

Lin Muye's hands ladling the rice paused for a moment, and then he let out a long sigh: "Oh~ Two days ago, Hu Zi was able to walk outside every day, but these days he has a bad cold and has a fever, so... "

"Fever!" Wang Qiang interrupted the old man with a voice before he could finish his words.

And his move without any warning obviously startled Zhongren.

"What's wrong? Why are you so nervous?" Hu Xiaodong, who had just delivered lunch to Huzi and his daughter, appeared in front of everyone.

"Oh~ I'm sorry, I just heard that Huzi had a fever, so..."

"So Qiangzi is worried that Huzi's condition will get worse..." He poked Wang Qiang's back forcefully, Tang Xiaoquan frowned and signaled him not to say anything more, then shifted his eyes again and continued, "By the way, Brother Hu, How is Huzi doing now? Is he feeling better?"

Shaking his head indifferently, Hu Xiaodong sat down with a slight dejection: "I just tested the temperature of his forehead with my hand. It is very hot, not optimistic."

As Hu Xiaodong's decisive words came out, everyone's originally hopeful mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

"Oh, it's all our fault that we don't have medicine on hand, otherwise..." He punched the ground hard, and Wu Chao turned his face away. This move was touching.

It seems that this person has a good heart and is a worthy candidate.

Wu Zizi added an additional comment to Wu Chao in his mind, and Tang Xiaoquan poked Wang Qiang again to remind him not to answer the call.

"Xiao Wu, stop blaming yourself. I can't blame you. You've done your best. If you want to blame, just blame God. Why do you want mankind to suffer such a catastrophe!" He raised his middle finger angrily, and Wenquan Xin raised his dissatisfaction to the sky. twice.

"Okay, let's figure out a solution for Hu Zi. The most important thing now is the supply of food." Hu Xiaodong suppressed everyone's discussion with his palms. He turned to look at Lin Muye and said respectfully: "Uncle Lin, please excuse me." Let me tell you about our material situation."

"Oh, okay." Lin Muye cleared his throat, and a hint of worry flashed through his cloudy old eyes: "In terms of water source, 4 bottles of canned drinks, 6 and a half bottles of mineral water, plus the rain from the past two days, 4-5 days The supply should not be a problem.”

"But as for food..." He shook his head helplessly. There was no need for the old man to say anything. Everyone could already see the seriousness of the situation.

The old man stretched out two fingers from his old palm and said calmly: "Two bags of instant noodles, that's all we have left in our current food supply."

There was a slight silence, and everyone felt as if a boulder had been pressed down on their hearts and they were breathless.

"Brother Hu, why don't we go to a farther place tomorrow to have a look, maybe we will gain something big."

"Yes, Brother Hu, we have searched almost all the garbage and cars in the surrounding streets. If we continue to search, we probably won't be able to find any flowers. It's better to just follow Xiao Wu's instructions and run further away. It will definitely be better than where we are. The steps are strong."

Looking at the resolute expressions of Wu and Wen, Hu Xiaodong gave the reporter a look of approval, but still denied it: "I can't let everyone take this risk. We have endured too many partings along the way, and I can't let the tragedy happen again. Moreover, we are not familiar with the conditions in the neighboring neighborhoods, so this plan is not feasible.”

Hu Xiaodong's refusal was extremely straightforward, and Tang Xiaoquan really admired his non-sloppy character.

But at this time, Tang Xiaoquan was more concerned about another thing, and this thing was the "experience" the other party just mentioned.

"Well, Brother Hu, you..."

"Brother Hu, we all understand your concerns, but if we don't go out and fight now, we will probably starve to death in the end!" Wu Chao retorted to Hu Xiaodong as if he didn't notice Tang Xiaoquan's words.

"As for the issue of food supplies, I have carefully considered it. There is a place that is much safer than if we risked running too far."

As he spoke, Hu Xiaodong pointedly moved his gaze to Tang Xiaoquan, and said at the same time: "This place is provided by Xiao Tang and the others, so let him come and talk to everyone."

"Huh?" Obviously Hu Xiaodong's sudden behavior made Tang Xiaoquan a little at a loss, but he soon understood the reason.

It was obvious that the other party was deliberately trying to bring the two teams closer, and discussing material supplies at the moment was undoubtedly one of the most effective methods.

Wu Zizi raised a thumb in his heart, and Tang Xiaoquan's admiration for Hu Xiaodong increased even more.

At the same time, he finally understood the true meaning of the words "it's not urgent to discuss it now" when he mentioned the location of the search for supplies.

After bowing his head and expressing his intention to Hu Xiaodong, Tang Xiaoquan immediately said: "The place I'm talking about is a noodle shop on the street. It's not too far from our place. The zombies around the noodle shop are widely separated. In terms of quantity, with our manpower It can’t be solved, but it may take some effort to move..."

This discussion lasted for a long time, and as everyone brainstormed, a relatively feasible action plan was quickly drawn up...
