doomsday survival

Chapter 401
Following Shi Jian's order, all the cars passed through the strait one by one in the order they were lined up before.

In order to ensure safety, all the people got out of the car and walked. Anyway, seven or eight kilometers is not too far, and walking is completely bearable.

Although Shi Jian had made full preparations, accidents still occurred, and three cars broke down halfway one after another.

The cause of the breakdown was not that the ice broke and the car fell into it, but that the temperature was too low and these cars had been stored for many years and malfunctioned.

However, these three vehicles were all loaded with supplies, which made Shi Jian unable to give up.

"This is really cheating," Shi Jian pinched his chin and said depressingly, "You said that you will not be broken sooner or later, but you must be broken halfway, and I have to send a car to drag it out. Don't let the ice layer It's crushed."

There was no way. Shi Jian felt that it would be more dangerous to transfer the materials to other vehicles on the ice. If something happened, the stevedores would be in danger, so he had to let the vehicle to tow them in the end.

Fortunately, the ice between the straits was thick enough, and all three vehicles were pulled out smoothly.

Shi Jian stared at them nervously, until he got ashore safely, he felt relieved, and hurriedly organized people to try to repair the three cars.

It's a pity that Ren Shijian couldn't fix the three cars no matter how he repaired them. In the end, he had to transfer the materials on them to the empty cars and abandon the three cars here.

The south-central part of Sakhalin Island is mountainous, and the place where Shi Jian and his group landed happened to be in the middle part of Sakhalin Island. The mountains stretched and were very unfavorable for vehicles.

Although Sakhalin Island is an island, it has a continental climate. The northern winter lasts for six months, and the temperature is even as low as minus [-] degrees.

In this case, Shi Jian had no choice but to go south.

Fortunately, traces could still be seen on the coastal road, so Shi Jian led everyone to drive south along the road.

It is now the end of December, and the cold wind is howling ragingly on Sakhalin Island, rolling up the snow on the ground, making it difficult for people to see the road ahead.

Under such weather and road conditions, the car did not dare to drive fast at all, just like a bullock cart, moving forward with difficulty in the wind and snow.

The temperature outside was already very low. Although it didn't reach the extreme cold of minus 30 degrees, it was at least minus [-] degrees.

Sitting in the car, because there is less activity, it feels that no matter how thick the clothes are, it is useless, and the feet are numb from the cold.

While stomping his feet, Shi Jian complained about the damn weather: "It's only been a few months, and the fireworks are starting to blow, otherwise we can drive faster, and now we will have to suffer."

Big Yanpao is a dialect in Northeast China, which refers to the strong wind that blows up the snow.

Looking at the flying snow outside the window, Feng Kuang said helplessly: "It's fine to just blow the smoke gun, but it's really too cold today, and there is no air conditioner in the car, so it's really difficult."

"Who says it's not? There's not even hot air," Shi Jian continued, "But it's good to drive, and we can't be so demanding in everything, can we?"

The two were talking when the intercom rang suddenly. It turned out that a car had broken down, and the car behind did not know the situation and ran into it.

Shi Jian had no choice but to stop the convoy and go down to see the specific situation.

The car that broke down was a passenger car with more than 40 people sitting on it, and it seemed that it couldn't drive.

In desperation, Shi Jian had no choice but to transfer the people to another bus. Everyone squeezed together, but they could sit down.

But good luck never comes double, misfortune never comes singly. When Shi Jian was about to let the convoy bypass the broken-down bus and move on, three more cars failed to start.

Shi Jian was a little bit overwhelmed. If the supplies of those three vehicles were transferred again, he wondered if this situation would happen again.

"Or, let's give up these materials first," Feng Kuang suggested, "The large troops will go south first, and then come to transport them away in the spring. Anyway, there are no people here, so don't worry about losing the materials."

Shi Jian finally reluctantly agreed, and left these vehicles here first, and then came back to retrieve them after they landed.

On the next road, vehicles broke down from time to time. The only luck is that no accidents caused casualties.

In this way, he walked for two full days in the wind and snow, and passed through two small port cities on the way, but the scale was not large, and the houses were dilapidated. Shi Jian did not stop, but just wiped out the zombies inside, and continued went south.

And now, a city finally appeared before Shi Jian's eyes.

This place should belong to the southwestern part of Sakhalin Island. The temperature has risen significantly, and the raging smoke cannons have also calmed down, letting everyone in Chang'an breathe a sigh of relief.

The city in front of him is obviously a seaport.The size of the city is not large, and it seems that it can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

From the east to the west of the port block, you can still see the old breakwater.However, the sea water here is not as frozen as in the north, and huge waves can still be seen hitting the breakwater, and then smashed to pieces, but they still don't stop.

Shi Jian retrieved the content of Sakhalin Island from the mobile phone data, and according to the above description, it was determined that this is the commercial port and fishing port in the Far East of Maozi Kingdom - Holmsk.

Holmsk belongs to the temperate monsoon climate. Affected by the warm sea current, the harbor is not frozen all year round.

Although it has been 53 years since the end of the world, various loading and unloading equipment and warehouse sheds on the port can still be seen.

There are many ships docked at the pier in the harbor, but almost none of them really float on the water, and most of them are semi-submerged, obviously unable to drive.

Although the size of Holmsk is not large, it is an important port city on Sakhalin Island after all, much larger than the previous two ports.

"The population was more than 2010 in 3. After more than ten years, it is estimated that it will not be much higher." Shi Jian said while looking at the information on his mobile phone.

"Why, do you want to stay here?" Feng Kuang asked with a smile.

Shi Jian shook his head slightly, and said: "My goal is Korsakov, which is further ahead. It is more suitable for staying there, and it is very close to Hokkaido."

"Then let's move on."

Shi Jian turned his head, looked at the convoy behind, and sighed: "I was worried about whether this car would last. Now we have thrown away more than 20 cars."

"The temperature here is not bad, so let's settle here first." Feng Kuang said.

"Well, let's settle down here first, at least the houses here are in good condition." Shi Jian nodded and agreed.

When Shi Jian announced the news of being stationed here, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Since I went to Sakhalin Island, although I have only walked for two days, it is more uncomfortable than walking on the mainland for ten days, and I really don't want to go any further.

Since he wanted to live in Holmsk, he naturally had to clean up the zombies inside first. Taking advantage of the early weather, Shi Jian led the entire combat team into Holmsk.

The location of Kholmsk is more important, but the population of Sakhalin Island is only 50, and the population here is only 3. After subtracting the people who escaped in the last days, there are only about [-] zombies inside.

A thousand zombies, in the past, would definitely discourage people.But the current Chang'an tribe has long stopped paying attention to this number of zombies.

However, because the places where these zombies lived were not concentrated, it was not until evening that Shi Jian and the others cleaned up more than half of the city.

In the end, according to the old method, everyone retreated out of the city, set up the mortar, and waited for the zombies to come to the door automatically.

The night battle didn't last long before it stopped. Shi Jian asked everyone to sit around the bonfire and waited until dawn, but no more zombies appeared.

The next day, Shi Jian carefully sorted out Holmsk again, and finally confirmed that there were no zombies left.

The Chang'an tribe moved into Holmsk that night, and the people living in the house finally felt at ease.

This time I escaped from the industrial park and walked back and forth for about a month. The life of wandering is really unbearable.

For the next week, the Chang'an Tribe will mainly pack up their residences and collect some supplies in the city by the way.

There are no high-rise buildings in Holmsk, and the buildings are relatively low, but the quality of the buildings is still good. Compared with the two small port cities before, I don’t know how many times better.

While lamenting the good quality of Lao Maozi's buildings, Shi Jian demarcated the living area. Finally, he chose the south of the city as the living area, which is farther away from the bay and less humid.

Although a lot of supplies have broken down on the road together with the vehicles, the food and ammunition are all there. This is the best news, and life will be guaranteed.

The buildings here are all European-style buildings. Although there are central heating facilities, many houses have fireplaces.

On the mountains outside the city, there are large forests, which can provide people with firewood for heating, so that the winter nights on the island are no longer cold.

The Chang'an tribe had already brought a lot of fur and other winter clothes, and they made a fortune from Xueyuan Town. These were made into bedding, clothes and shoes, making people feel that this winter is really not too cold.

After everyone settled down completely, they felt a lot more relaxed, and because of the lack of production work in the industrial park, they were free for a while. Apart from the necessary exercises and training, they had nothing to do every day.

Shi Jian and Feng Kuang immediately discovered this problem, and they naturally wouldn't let everyone be idle like this.

As soon as the two of them discussed it, they simply took this opportunity to set up a study class for everyone to pass on the knowledge that the two of them had mastered.

The elders of the Chang'an tribe all knew the importance of learning, and when they heard that Shi Jian and Feng Kuang were going to start classes, they responded positively.

But some of the newcomers who joined later couldn’t do it, because they had almost no knowledge base and couldn’t understand what Shi Jian and the others were talking about.

Shi Jian also discovered this problem, so he asked Li Hui to take the lead in providing basic education for these newcomers, the first of which was literacy.

In this way, the life of the Chang'an tribe in Sakhalin Island began to become regular.

Do morning exercises every morning to keep everyone's military quality from falling.The morning is fishing and hunting time, providing fresh meat and seaweed and other green plants for the tribe.In the afternoon, it was study. Shi Jian and Feng Kuang took turns to impart various knowledge.

Speaking of fishing, the Chang'an tribe is really not good at it.It's not that they can't fish, but they can't fish in sea water.

Although the Chang'an tribesmen had already seen the sea when they were in Vladivostok, but at that time people's main energy was on searching the map, and they had just escaped, so no one had the leisure to look at the sea.

Now that everyone has settled down, they have discovered the charm of the sea. People often go to the beach in groups and look at the magnificent ocean, feeling that the whole body and mind are broadened.

Of course Shi Jian was one of them, but he didn't want to express his feelings, but he came up with the idea of ​​food in the sea water.

Although there is no shortage of food and jerky in the Chang'an tribe, there is a lack of food such as vegetables.

If one does not eat vegetables for a long time, it will be harmful to the human body, so Shi Jian began to think about using seaweed such as kelp instead.

It was low tide time in the morning, and some seaweed on the bottom of the sea was brought to the coast by the tide, and finally left behind.

Shi Jian began to take everyone to pick up seaweed on the coast. By the way, he also picked up some seafood such as sea crabs and shellfish, and gave them to everyone to eat when they got home.

Shi Jian, who hadn't eaten seafood for a long time, was really addicted to it for two days, and then he remembered that he could fish in the sea, which is also to provide everyone with fresh meat.

Kholmsk itself is a fishing port. Fishing nets and other tools can be seen everywhere here. Moreover, fishing nets are made of chemical fiber, which are durable and can be used now.

But fishing nets alone are not enough. There are some small fish on the shore, and it is more difficult to catch. If you want to catch a bigger fish, you must at least go inward.

The ships in the port were unusable, so Shi Jian asked Zhang Weiqiang and his son to make a small wooden boat according to the drawing, and then took people into the sea to fish.

As a result, there was a problem when entering the sea for the first time.

It's not that Shi Jian has never rowed a boat before, but he did it in the park.

The water surface in the park is as calm as a mirror, and even a little wave is rarely seen. It is like a three-foot wave without wind in the sea. The boat had just rowed forward less than five meters when a wave hit Shi Jian and the others together with the boat. turn.

Fortunately, the people selected by Shi Jian can swim, and the sea water there is not deep, so there is no drowning.

However, the three of them, including Shi Jian, all caught a cold after returning, and it took a week to recover.

Xia Qianhe found Shi Jian on purpose, and persuaded him, "Shi Jian, we don't have to eat that fish, but we can't take the risk anymore, it's frightening to death."

While sniffing his nose, Shi Jian explained: "Elder Elder, I don't just want to eat fish, there are other reasons."

"What else do you want to do?" Xia Qianhe asked puzzled.

Shi Jian picked up the medicine that He Chong brought him, drank it in one gulp, and then said: "I think so. Didn't we infer that the island of refuge is in Hokkaido? I thought I had to go and see it anyway, then You have to cross the sea, so you need to practice for a while."

Xia Qianhe frowned, and said, "Then what if it's not the case? If you pass by, you'll be zombies, where are you going?"

Shi Jian said fearlessly: "I've made up my mind, I'll take a look at the shore first, if not, I'll come back by boat."

Xia Qianhe pondered for a while, and said, "If they are not good people, what should we do?"

"That's why I want to go and have a look. I can learn about their situation first. If they really can't do it, we won't contact them."

"That's okay," Xia Qianhe said hesitantly, "However, you have to pay attention to safety. If it's not possible, you can learn to sail a boat in the spring, and you won't be able to get sick now."

Shi Jian knew that Xia Qianhe had good intentions. In the last days, there was a shortage of medicine and medicine, and a disease might kill a person. He really couldn't afford to get sick, so he hurriedly agreed.

Although Shi Jian no longer rowed the boat, but the fishing did not stop, he found another way.

Shi Jian's method is very simple, that is, go to the pier and cast nets between the gaps of those sunken ships, and he can catch a lot of fish, adding another delicious dish to the table.

In addition to fish, Shi Jian also sent people to the mountains outside the city to set traps and catch prey.

When Sakhalin Island was in the old days, its ecology was well protected.After the end of the world, although zombies will go out to hunt, most of them stay in their own territory, so wild beasts on the island are not uncommon.

Maybe there is really no one on this island, and the wild beasts seem to have never seen people. In addition to the hounds who came from robbery, hunting is very easy, and prey will be recorded every day.

With fresh meat and green vegetables, the Chang'an tribe's dining table was full again, and people's faces were healthy and rosy again.

As the saying goes, when you are full, you are full of warmth.After the Chang'an tribe was completely stabilized, there were more and more affairs between men and women. In less than a month, more than 70 couples of men and women were married, and about [-] married women were pregnant. Qing is also one of them.

Shi Jian was a little surprised when he learned that his wife was pregnant again.It stands to reason that Xia Qing is still breastfeeding, so she should not be pregnant. Moreover, Shi Jian has also adopted certain contraceptive methods, but he did not expect to successfully sow the seeds.

Xia Qing looked at Shi Jian's surprised expression, and asked worriedly: "Brother Jian, are you unhappy?"

Shi Jian shook his head hastily, and said, "It's not that you're unhappy, it's that you didn't expect it. Besides, you only gave birth to Qiong'er this year, so I'm worried that it won't be good for your health if you do it so often."

Xia Qing heard a hint of sweetness in his heart, embraced Shi Jian's neck, and said coquettishly: "It's okay, I'm not afraid, I will give you a few more children."

Seeing his wife's rare little daughter's expression, Shi Jian couldn't help pinching her nose, and said, "Okay! If you want to have a baby, we can have one. Anyway, there is no family planning now."

The news of Xia Qing's pregnancy didn't go away, and people in the tribe congratulated Shi Jian one after another. Feng Kuang approached Shi Jian with a smile and said, "It's agreed, if there is another one this time, it will be called Shi Kuang."

Shi Jian said worriedly: "Old Feng, this Shi Kuang's name is really common, it always reminds me of Shikuangye. Besides, it's fine for a boy to be called Shi Kuang, but a girl can't be called that. "

When Feng Kuang blew on his beard, he was about to get angry, Shi Jian hurriedly added: "Why don't you call him Shi Feng, this sounds much better."

Only then did Feng Kuang's face turn from anger to joy, and he grinned.

Shi Jian laughed with him twice, and suddenly saw Li Yeyue's resentful eyes behind him, and the smile on his face immediately became unnatural.

　In the last five days, ask for seven monthly tickets!Thank you Tiger Yue!
