In the evening, Luo Zhiyong faced the setting sun and sat leisurely in the San Canteen Square eating bagged chicken legs. This was taken from the school supermarket that he and Zhou Quan jointly recovered the day before yesterday. He looked at the boys in the expedition team with some relief. Moving food and other supplies from the supermarket in an orderly manner.
Liu Haibo, Jiang Yutao and other boys from the Fourth Canteen were also in the team. Each of them had bright red blood stains on their bodies. Half of Liu Haibo's face and hair were covered with blood. The coagulation of the blood caused the hair on the back of his head to stick together messily. , very scary, but Liu Haibo's mood did not seem to be affected by this, he was still talking and laughing with his companions.
A few days ago, Liu Haibo and the others were just ordinary students who were timid and had never held a knife. They were so scared that they almost wet their pants when they saw zombies.
But now, they can bravely rush forward to fight zombies with weapons such as kitchen knives and maces, and are no longer afraid of even the blood of zombies.
Big changes, painful transitions
At first, Luo Zhiyong felt that Zhou Wen's test content was too dangerous and cruel, but now that he thinks about it, Zhou Wen's decision is undoubtedly correct. Only ordinary survivors are no longer afraid of zombies and even dare to fight zombies. Then this group and this survivor stronghold will Only then can there be hope of survival.
A safe stronghold is not a strong person always protecting a group of weak people, but a strong person always leading a group of brave people to charge and fight!
What Zhou Quan is doing is to continuously hone the psychological quality and will of the survivors, reduce their fear and despair, and arouse their courage and belief in charging forward. Even if they are not in the stronghold, those survivors can protect themselves.
"I really lost to you, Boss Zhou..."
Luo Zhiyong smiled helplessly and convinced. He began to listen to Zhou Quan's voice and thought that the other party was a twenty-year-old college student. He was thirty-three years old after all, and he still had a bit of a grudge when he called his brother, who was thirteen years younger than him, boss. After seeing Zhou Zhou's unusually mature and cold nature and his long-term and correct decisions, Luo Zhiyong gradually let go of his inner grudges and sincerely obeyed Zhou Zhou's arrangements and orders.
When Luo Zhiyong saw that all the expedition team had safely entered the Third Canteen, he stood up and threw the chicken bones in his hands into the trash can, intending to withdraw to the Third Canteen as well.
At this time, a deep voice came from behind.
"Luo Zhiyong, how are the dormitories and teaching buildings nearby?"
Luo Zhiyong was startled by the sudden voice, but he quickly adjusted his emotions, turned around, and respectfully replied to the owner of the voice:
"Boss Zhou, I have completed the detection. The boys' dormitory on the left has 8 dormitories with 30 people alive, including 3 people with superpowers. The girls' dormitory on the right has 11 dormitories with 35 people alive, 5 of which are people with superpowers. , the teaching building... there are no survivors. I also found that there are 8 survivors in the school experimental field, 4 males and 4 females. They should be students from the agricultural biology side, and they... are all superpowers. All of the above I informed the survivors of the stronghold situation and test content, and most of them agreed, and we will be able to receive them tomorrow morning."
"All eight of those agricultural biology students are superpowers?"
Zhou Quan slowly walked up to Luo Zhiyong and asked:
"Do you know their abilities and occupations?"
Luo Zhiyong replied:
"They are all non-combat superpowers and are hybrid auxiliaries. Their skills are all related to plants and raising animals. For example, one of the girls has a superpower that can make hens lay more eggs and cows. Sending more milk, having a boy can speed up the growth and maturity of some agricultural plants such as rice..."
Luo Zhiyong's discovery was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, hitting Zhou Quan's mind, causing Zhou Quan, who had always been calm and indifferent, to express excitement and ecstasy for the first time.
Why has the number of human beings and technological civilization exploded since the transition from the backward fishing and hunting era to the agricultural era?
It is because when humans have conquered plants such as wheat and rice, and tamed animals such as cattle and sheep, they can rely on their own labor and wisdom to obtain abundant and relatively stable food sources, instead of hunting for one day and starving for three days. With sufficient and stable food, humans have time to give birth and raise offspring, develop personal interests, and learn and research culture and technology.
It can be said that a stable and sustainable food source is the foundation and necessary condition for the development of human civilization.
Since entering the apocalypse, Zhou Quan and all the survivors have relied on pre-apocalyptic industrial bagged food to solve their hunger problem, but that is not sustainable. The food in the supermarket will always be used up one day, no matter how well-sealed cans are. When it expires, if we continue to rely on food produced in the old era, human civilization will really perish.
Therefore, we must cultivate good crops, develop good animal husbandry, and build a complete food farm before the bagged food of the old era is sufficient. Only in this way can we continue to supply fresh food to survivors in the future when food is barren. food!
Vegetables, fruits, grains, meat, eggs, milk...
Zhouquan needs to cultivate them all!
"Luo Zhiyong! You call Zhao Jin and the others down, bring weapons and protective equipment, and you lead them to the experimental field. You must bring all those 8 students back today! I will go over now to help you clear the way. I will be there in half an hour. See you at the door of the Farmland Laboratory Building!"
Zhou Quan immediately gave Luo Zhiyong an emergency order, and then he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Seeing Zhou Quan's anxious look, Luo Zhiyong also knew how important the agricultural survivors were. Although it would be completely dark in two hours, he didn't care about safety at this time and hurriedly went up to organize Zhao Jin and his party. Set off.
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!..."
Zombies one after another on the road were ruthlessly torn apart by a black humanoid figure. Their bodies were easily cut apart by black claws like tender tofu, without any sense of hindrance. Within a few seconds, the ground was everywhere. They were the mutilated body parts of zombies. The entire road was covered with rivers of red blood and gray-white flesh. It was extremely terrifying and disgusting.
In order to clear the way for Luo Zhiyong and the others, and for the safety of the team when they returned, Zhou Quan did not walk on the roof of the building like before, but turned into a flesh and blood blender and swaggered around killing zombies on the road. He had to forcefully carve out a safe path. ·······
At this time, at the edge of the experimental field, a group of students in white coats gathered together to discuss. Everyone had different expressions, some with tears of reluctance on their faces, and some with excited smiles. , some are endless sorrow, and some are breathing with annoyance.
"Weiwei, it's okay. Remember to bring the 'Little Luhua' in the circle with you when you go over. We raised her personally. She can even lay eggs to supplement your nutrition after she passes over. Haha..." ·”
A boy with glasses and a pale face was lying in the arms of a long-haired girl, weakly comforting the tearful girl.
Xu Weiwei kept sobbing and blamed in a low voice:
"You are not allowed to say anything like your last words! You will definitely pass the test tomorrow! We promised to live together! We will not give up any hope of survival! If you can't go to that safe base...then I will also give up my quota, be with you···"
"Nonsense! Weiwei!"
The weak boy lost his temper with his beloved girlfriend for the first time. He coughed for a while and said:
"Weiwei! Don't be willful! That safe base is your only hope. There is food, security, and beds there. Haven't you been complaining that sleeping in the field is uncomfortable? Go to the stronghold and everything will be fine! I, Fan Pinghua, have no other wishes now. I just hope that you can live well. If you can’t think about it yourself, then I will hate you..."
"alright!"
The careless girl couldn't stand it anymore and said to Xu Weiwei:
"Weiwei, Pinghua just ran out of energy, and he's not dead. Why are you making it so tragic like a sad drama! Although judging from the speed of recovery of the body, he probably won't be better tomorrow morning, but he's not completely gone. I hope that we can all help Pinghua plead with the stronghold boss named Zhou Quan, and can we be accommodating and not test him."
A boy with a bitter face who looked depressed and sad denied:
"Guo Ting, don't think about it. Didn't you hear the superpower named Luo Zhiyong say this morning? The boss named Zhou Quan is a very ruthless and cruel executioner. He insisted that the man kill two zombies alone, which proves Only those with ability can enter, and the stronghold is not for waste or lazy people."
When Guo Ting heard this, she was so angry that she kicked the bitter-faced boy and yelled:
"Gao Liangmu! If you keep saying depressing words, can you believe that I will be ruined!? Haven't you seen what Fan Pinghua is like now? He used to over-exhaust his energy in order to ripen the wheat so that everyone could eat, and he has not recovered yet. Come here, let alone kill zombies, he may not be able to escape even if he runs away! Can we let him take the test? There are probably seven of us kneeling in front of Zhou Zhou and begging. I don’t believe he is so hard-hearted!"
Another more steady boy stood up and comforted Guo Ting, and then said to everyone:
"Okay, don't worry, everyone, we need to sort things out first. First, all of us must move to a safe and food-rich stronghold to take refuge. This is everyone's goal. Survival is the right way! Secondly, Everyone must remember the test standards mentioned by Luo Zhiyong in the morning and do their best to prepare for tomorrow's interview. Girls must remember the value of their abilities to the development of the stronghold. Boys must adjust their physical condition and give their best in the battle tomorrow! Finally, Fan Pinghua’s physical condition will definitely not pass tomorrow’s test. When all of us pass the test, let’s all kneel down and plead with Zhou Quan. If this doesn’t work, alas, there is nothing we can do..."
At this point, everyone fell silent. Each of them remembered clearly that after Luo Zhiyong learned about Fan Pinghua's situation in the morning, he shook his head helplessly. He told everyone: Zhou Quan is a very strong, domineering and principled person. He believes that boys' physical fitness and violent psychology are naturally suitable for fighting and hunting. In the apocalypse, men who want to obtain food and safety must take up arms and fight. Men who have never seen corpses and blood are not worthy of enjoyment. If Fan Pinghua fails to pass the test of killing zombies, he will not be able to enter the stronghold.
Finally, Luo Zhiyong also specifically warned everyone not to try to morally kidnap Zhou Quan, nor to try to force Zhou Quan to give in. Zhou Quan was not only an extremely powerful combat-type superpower, but also a bloody butcher who killed without blinking an eye. Those who died in his hands There are countless zombies, and many humans have died in his hands. He hates people challenging and questioning his decisions, and Zhou Quan's "very annoying" people often have only one ending:
die···
Therefore, Xu Weiwei, Guo Ting, and Gao Liangmu all imagined Zhou Quan as a cruel and terrifying murderer. They did not dare to force Zhou Quan to include Fan Pinghua in their stronghold through questioning, threats, etc., and could only use the humblest and most sincere methods to force Zhou Quan into their base. way - kneeling down to plead for Fan Pinghua.
As long as you can save your friend's life, what is this dignity?
