In the evening, Deng Xiao and Long Yongjun returned from Xia Nan University.
"Yang Xiao, Charlotte told me that there were sounds of fighting again from the Xiangshui Bridge today. It seems that people on the other side are continuing to besiege the giant snakes guarding the bridge. However, it seems that they have not succeeded. There are many screams coming from the thick fog. Word got out that the fight went on for an hour and then there was no movement.”
Yang Xiao nodded:
"The giant snake guarding the bridge is at least a genetically enhanced mutated creature. When the opponent attacks it, firstly, it needs to open up the passage, and secondly, it can also obtain some precious weapons and equipment.
Huang Wen, you are a bird and beast soul. I don’t understand something. There must be many people with bird and beast souls on the other side. Why can’t you fly across the Xiang River? Do you have to take the bridge? "
Deng Xiao immediately said:
"I also asked my cousin Charlotte this question. What Charlotte means is that they also sent flying people to cross the river, but all of them died. A large number of various mutant birds gathered above the river. They were large in number and had powerful attack power. Those birds were originally meant to catch mutated fish in the water. They hide in the thick fog and will attack when they encounter human beings."
"Well, this explanation makes sense. I'm afraid I need to add one more point. The people with flying bird and beast souls have limited combat power. To really capture a gene store stronghold, a powerful melee beast soul team and elemental magician team must be sent. These people They all have to go through the bridge to get here.”
Yang Xiao felt that the outside world had undergone tremendous changes, perhaps far beyond his imagination.
Both Xiangnan University and Xianan University are located in the valley of Yueshan Mountain, relatively isolated from the outside world. The main city opposite has three gene store locations in the city alone. From the map, there are also many gene store highlights around the main city. Like Shonan University, there is only one Star City 50 kilometers away.
If the evolution speed of other gene store strongholds is faster than that of Yang Xiao, Yang Xiao and the others will fall victim to others sooner or later. Yang Xiao now hopes that there will be a relatively long cold winter, which can temporarily stop the evolution speed of other strongholds and allow himself to Get some respite.
He believes that if a long cold winter does come, Shonan University will be able to survive to the end with its current reserves and preparations.
Yang Xiao once again held a small mobilization meeting, asking Xu Nanqiang and Ma Junhui to speed up the progress of the project and strive to complete the construction of the cellar as soon as possible.
Coincidentally, that night, the cold wind was blowing hard. In the middle of the night, when everyone was sleeping, the logistics staff who kept watch suddenly shouted:
"It's snowing!"
Many people woke up from their sleep and saw the snow falling in the sky. It was especially beautiful under the orange lights of the gene store.
At dawn, the heavy snow stopped, and the playground was covered with a thin layer of snow. It looked very beautiful from a distance.
The nearby foothills and campus ruins are also covered with a light layer of snow.
"Is it going to be winter so soon? Our cave dwelling has just started to be dug!"
Yang Xiao felt that time was pressing and held another mobilization meeting, requiring two teams of people to dig caves day and night. They must complete the excavation of the cave dwellings before the heavy snow closes the mountains and the harsh winter comes.
Fortunately, it did not snow again in the next few days, and the cellar excavation project of Shonan University continued in an orderly manner.
Elite warriors from Xiangnan University still hunt mutant creatures in nearby hills and fields every day, and Yang Xiao still leads Long Yongjun, Qin Yu, Deng Xiao, and Chen Fei to form a separate team to hunt.
A week later, it snowed again. This time it snowed all day long. The snow was heavier and thicker, and the weather was colder. It was already very uncomfortable to live in the tent. Everyone was about to prepare. After temporarily moving to the school office building, the heavy snow automatically stopped again.
Wang Le from Star City came again to discuss the alliance with Yang Xiao. Yang Xiao talked nonsense with the other party, saying that the internal opinions were not unified and that everyone needed to continue doing their work. It was estimated that it would take about half a month, so Wang Le Don't rush, be patient.
When the two younger brothers next to Wang Le saw the two beauties Qin Yu and Deng Xiao, their eyes almost fell out of their eyes and they were drooling. As a result, Wang Le hit them hard on the head.
"Image, image, quality, quality, how many times have I said it, don't you two feel embarrassed? My image has been ruined by you! My image represents the image of Star City, and Star City is the star of hope for mankind. , understand?”
The two younger brothers covered their heads, looked at Wang Le in confusion, and nodded repeatedly.
Wang Le specifically told Yang Xiao before leaving,
"Our boss values you very much. As long as you join, we will give you the position of deputy leader!"
Yang Xiao's eyes lit up:
"Oh, really, thank you Brother Le. Please say a few words of kindness in front of the boss. I'll work hard here. As you know, these college students are usually arrogant and arrogant, and it's hard to lead a team!"
"It's hard to lead them? If they don't obey, they'll be beaten to death. See if they still obey?"
"The man beat him wildly, and the woman took off her clothes."
The two younger brothers beside Wang Le suddenly interrupted and taught Yang Xiao management experience.
Wang Leyi glared.
The two younger brothers quickly shrank their necks and swallowed what they didn't say.
Seven days later, it snowed again, this time for two consecutive days before stopping.
The temperature is getting colder.
After more than half a month of digging, eight excavators worked day and night to finally dig the U-shaped cave.
The remaining work is to clean up the waste residue, lay cement and steel bars, build underground fire ditches, and build some simple facilities such as partitions, rooms, warehouses, and beds in the cave dwelling.
Huang Wen and the girls now have another task, which is to clean and dry the clothes, quilts, etc. collected in the past few months.
There are also those animal skins. These animal skins are usually distributed when they are hunted. Usually the hunter takes it and distributes it to those close to him.
The dozens of animal skins that Yang Xiao hunted were handed over to Huang Wen's former female dinosaur team. Although the organizational structure has changed now, Yang Xiao still cares more about the feelings of the previous group of girls.
Yang Xiao was resting in the tent when Huang Wen walked in.
"Is something wrong?"
"this is for you."
Huang Wen took out a black thing from behind and handed it to Yang Xiao.
"What is it, so mysterious?"
Yang Xiao unfolded it as he spoke, and was immediately stunned.
This is a dog skin long coat, sewn from the dog skin of a mutated dog that Kong Tianqing and others from Xia Nan University killed last time in the valley. Huang Wen spent seven nights working on it, sitting beside the campfire. Sewn with stitches.
Yang Xiao remembered the last time he gave a dog skin to Huang Wen, and casually said, "You can make some clothes. It will be useful in winter."
But he didn't expect Huang Wen to do it for him.
There was a warmth inside.
"Huang Wen,"
"Okay, don't say thank you. It's too intrusive. I'm leaving."
Huang Wen turned around and walked out of the tent coolly, showing the demeanor of a former top student.
Yang Xiao looked at Huang Wen's leaving figure and was stunned for a long time.
I tried it on and it fit just right. It was obvious that Huang Wen had taken the trouble to pay attention to his body proportions and made it specially.
Yang Xiao and others are now genetic evolvers, and their ability to resist cold is much stronger than before the apocalypse. It is not necessary to wear dog fur coats in this weather now, but if the temperature drops further, it will be useful.
During this period it snowed heavily for two more days.
After more than ten days, the cave dwelling was basically completed, with concrete as the supporting ceiling and ceramic tiles as the cave walls and floor.
They can get whatever tiles they want from the building materials market. Although the workmanship of these college students is very average, and the floors and walls are all undulating and uneven, they can make do with it.
"Yang Xiao, we can officially finish the work in five more days. There are still some details that need to be taken care of. I'm also going to pull up the wires and install the lights. You happen to have a generator, which can be used."
Ma Junhui said to Yang Xiao.
However, that night, the temperature dropped suddenly and heavy snow fell from the sky. Many people's tents were crushed, so everyone temporarily moved to the school's administrative building in the middle of the night.
"Yang Xiao, the snow is so heavy, much heavier than the previous three times."
Zhao Gang shook off the snow on his head and said.
(There should be another update in the evening, maybe two.)
