Doom Bakery

Chapter 35
Dad and Jia Yang have been doing physical labor for more than a week, and their spirits are obviously not as good as before.

I made dinner, and Jiayang and Dad didn't come back until eight o'clock in the evening.Dad and Jia Yang ate in silence, their hands were left with many deep or shallow scars from carrying stones.

I asked, "How long will it take for the new wall to be built?"

"Two-thirds of it has been built, and it will take another week to finish."

Dad shook his hand, "I can't hold it anymore, I have to take a day off tomorrow."

Before I went out to repair the wall together, we had already found all the stones on the flat ground of Shangtian Village and dug some surrounding soil.For more than a week, the collected soil and stones have long been used up, so I have to go to the mountain to collect some stones and move the stones down.

For many nights, I could see Jiayang's worn shoulders. Although I sewed him a small cushion, it was of no use at all, and it would also affect his picking stones and dirt.

However, the materials for the remaining one-third of the wall should have been prepared, and the subsequent wall construction will be much faster.

"Jia Yang, you should also take a day off." I said.

"Well. I can't hold it anymore, I'm too tired." Jia Yang rubbed his eyes, as if he would sleep in the next second.

Jia Yang and Dad changed the sweat-soaked clothes, and I put them in the basket for washing tomorrow.

Lin Kai cleaned up the dishes, it was his turn to do the dishes today.

Lin Kai's foot injury has healed a lot during this time, and he can already bounce around by himself.He can also help with washing vegetables, watering, and wringing clothes.

After these few days of cultivation, Lin Kai's complexion has also recovered a lot.

Last year, Jiayang's parents brought a lot of tonics. It happened that everyone was very tired during this time, so I fried some tonics and poured them into the three of them.When I was young, I didn't like to drink this kind of dark and bitter medicine, but now I know how useful it is to the body.

The four of us were all at home that day. After Dad stopped working, his physical strength seemed to recover instantly. He not only got up early to drink water, but also practiced Tai Chi.

……

"Xiaoqi, when does your mother reply to you? Why doesn't she reply when I send messages?" Dad called me.

"We just contacted yesterday. Mom has an armed force there, so it's safe. The captain and Lin Kai are still young, don't worry."

"I'm quite relieved, but your mother won't call me back."

"Are you two having a fight?"

"What are you talking about! Why are you making troubles! If you want to make troubles, it's your mother..."

I picked up the phone and sent a message to my mother in the morning, but she never replied, "Could it be that the battery is out, the power bank should have run out long ago. Last time, my mother said that the power supply there is not very stable. "

I sent a message to Jiayang's mother again, but there was no reply.

"But the network is still good." I muttered, thinking that the network might be disconnected, I hurriedly charged hundreds of calls to my phone number.I don't know if there is still someone maintaining it at the mobile phone operator, but at least it is good during this period of time.

Jia Yang and Lin Kai also came out of the room, and I gave Lin Kai the mobile phone given by Fang Zhijiu.

I asked Lin Kai: "Lin Kai, can you contact Shang Zhijiu?"

"He also sent me a message in the morning, and he said that he had gone to the mission."

That shelter should be fine.

I comforted my dad, "It's okay, maybe the battery is out, so mom can't contact us."

"What do you want for lunch?"

Lin Kai was watering the vegetable garden at this time. He pointed to the new crop of lettuce and said, "Miss Xiaoqi, can we just have a hamburger today! I'm so hungry..."

"I can, but you have to ask your brother Yang, his arms were sore last time, but I don't know if he can do it this time."

"I can." Jia Yang said silently.

"Didn't you say last night that your shoulders are too tired. Let me give you a massage?"

"I'm done." I wanted to say something more, but Jia Yang suddenly squeezed the meat I wanted to serve, "Do you want to do it again?"

"That's all right, I'll go prepare the materials." I dodged away very quickly, lest they see the change on my face.

Although He Jiayang is an old married couple, he still feels a little shy when outsiders are around.

I took a photo and sent it to my mother and Jiayang's mother, hoping that they would receive our news after they recharged their batteries.

We are eating hamburgers.

Jia Yang said, "However, the zombies may have really mutated."

"What is it, Jiayang?" Dad asked.

"I saw a lot of people in the X group saying that the zombies have changed. As Xiaoqi said last time, the eyesight of the zombies seems to have improved. And their stereotyped movements have become less. When there is no prey, they will Stay still. When prey appears they will attack quickly, like a cheetah.

However, this phenomenon has not yet occurred in the animals here, but we still need to speed up the construction of the fence.I don't know what changes will follow. "

Lin Kai took a big bite of the hamburger and said, "Now that there are armed forces, the shooting speed should be much faster than when we blast zombies with our bare hands."

"That's right, there are rescue teams, all the zombies should be wiped out soon, and then the city will be rebuilt." I continued.

Although there are many worries about the future development, since we have a rescue team, we are all willing to think in a good direction.

And we are still building our own "safety fortress".In rural areas, at least self-sufficiency can be achieved.

For several days in a row, there was no new news from the shelter. We just regarded it as a power outage, but Fang Zhijiu's special mobile phone did not get in touch. We were a little surprised.

The mobile phone that Fang Zhijiu gave us is the same as the Nokia, with a super long standby time. It has been more than ten days since Fang Zhijiu gave it to me, and it still has half of the battery.

We also wondered if it was the same as our mobile phone, there was no signal.But the small screen keeps showing full bars, and there is no mobile phone operator on it. It seems that the satellites used are different from ours.

Just waiting so anxiously, we still plan to continue building the wall first.

Zombie outbreak No.80 for seven days.

Today's weather is very hot. I pressed a thermometer to measure the room temperature at home before, and it showed 32 degrees. The temperature outside must be higher.

I found mung beans from the cellar and boiled a big pot of mung bean soup.Ask Lin Kai to bring it out with me for everyone to drink.

I asked everyone to go home to get a bowl and drink mung bean soup.Everyone has not had a good rest and meal for a long time.In such a hot day, I was also worried about heatstroke, so they all stopped what they were doing.
The person who quarreled with me before hadn't seen me for a long time, and this time he didn't bother me, so he said "thank you".

……

When the wall was about to end, a black figure flashed past.
