After this group of people settled down completely, the weather began to turn cold.

Newborns were born one after another, pregnancy news came out one after another, and the factories on Dayan Mountain increased one by one. With the assistance of several bases, even a pharmaceutical factory was established, but it could only produce relatively simple drugs... There were also a lot more doctors, and the medical line was basically complete.

Before winter, the granaries were filled earlier than last year, and there was sufficient electricity. There were two large distribution stations, so there was no need to dry firewood this winter. Most of the houses had floor heating, so as long as the electricity was turned on, the whole house would become warm.

At the end of January in the nineteenth year of the apocalypse, with the support of jade materials from all over the country and with Lin Man mobilizing all the supernatural people in the base to work for her, she finally collected enough jade beads and set up a huge soul-locking formation in the base. This range included a part of the Dayan Mountain slope and a large area of ​​land at the foot of the mountain. All residential areas and winter vegetable gardens were included.

Lin Man spent many dark and windy nights, and she completed this task like a thief. It was more than ten tons of jade, and she buried it one by one, and the pits were deep and hidden. She was exhausted, and the jade materials she had were basically used up.

Over the past few months, she has sent as many as 250 pairs of supernatural alarms abroad. I heard that they have played a very important role. They have wiped out group after group of zombies over there, and have conducted carpet searches in the surrounding areas in order to find the zombie king before the cold winter is over.

One day, Lin Zhongrong called excitedly and said that the zombie king had been killed and the soldiers would be returning home soon.

"Dad, I'll finish my work here as soon as possible and try to rush over to celebrate your birthday." Lin Zhongrong said.

Lin Man's birthday is coming soon again. This time it is her 18th birthday, which has a special meaning. Although her character and achievements have long been out of touch with those of a minor.

Lin Man asked, "Is Lin Cheng also returning to China?"

"Of course."

"If it's convenient then, have him come along and we'll slaughter the pig that day."

Speaking of which, no pigs have ever been slaughtered on Dayan Mountain. The pair of male and female pigs were not allowed to mate until April last year, and it took more than three months before they gave birth to eleven piglets. They have been raised until now, and each one has grown from a tiny little one to a plump one. Although they are not fully grown yet, Lin Man can always get one to eat if he wants.

No one would object. Even if she ate and shared, she might not finish the whole sheep. There would always be half a sheep or more left over for others to try. It was like the sheep that were slaughtered earlier.

When Lin Zhongrong heard about the pig slaughter, he thought of the fat, round, and cute pigs in the pigpen and couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Okay, we must go there."

Lin Man hung up the phone and went to see the pigs in a good mood. After the first litter, the two larger pigs gave birth to another litter of ten piglets. So, the pigpen now has two adult pigs, eleven half-grown pigs, and ten tiny piglets. They're all very hungry, and feeding them every day is a chore. They've set up a feed mill to produce feed. Oh, and later brought in ducklings from the Xihe base and a type of vole from the Xingqiong base, making a total of five types of livestock. Of these, voles are the easiest, fastest, and cheapest to raise. Families with large populations and high credit scores can afford to buy one every few days.

Lin Man doesn't like to eat that. She can't even eat enough chicken. She can eat lamb often - she buys half a head or a whole head each time and puts it in the space, which can be eaten for a long time - she refuses to eat mice. However, neither chicken nor lamb can compare to pigs.

She smiled and locked onto a castrated pig with the roundest body and a black dot on its left ear. When no one was around, she grabbed some sweet potato vines from the basket and threw them to it. Seeing it chewing happily, she said, "Eat more and grow some more meat."

After feeding all the pigs, she decided to feed the other pigs as well. There were only a few sweet potato vines in her basket, but it seemed like there were endless vines when she fed them. That was because she took some sweet potato vines from the space to take advantage of the situation.

These days, sweet potato vines are a rare delicacy for pigs. It's not because it's cold, but because the base has to support nearly 50,000 people, so the good stuff goes to the humans first. Sweet potato vines are also a delicacy for humans, and they're incredibly fragrant when fried. But the pigs won't have any to eat. So even though they're raw, these guys devour them with such relish.

Lin Man came over every day to check on the black-eared pig. He and Chen Yu had discussed countless ways to cook it. Suddenly, the day before slaughtering the pig, Lin Zhongrong called and said in a serious tone, "Xiao Man, Dad can't come over tomorrow. He has to go abroad."

Lin Man had a bad feeling in his heart: "Something happened over there?"

Lin Zhongrong obviously had no intention of hiding it from her. Her current identity and responsibilities were different from before, so he couldn't hide something like this. "The communication suddenly stopped, and we couldn't get in touch with them no matter what we did. They didn't return by the scheduled time, and the people we sent to investigate also lost contact... We don't know what happened now, so we need to send someone else to check, and this time Dad will be the lead."

They asked Lin Zhongrong to go there in person, probably because they guessed that the situation there was not good.

"Dad, how about I go and help you?" Lin Manyi said anxiously.

"You can't move! The Peace Base is under scrutiny, and Dad's out of the country again. You have to stay there. That's why I'm informing you of this. You can't lose your composure no matter what, understand? The Peace Base is your and your mother's roots."

Lin Man felt a little depressed, but she agreed. Lin Zhongrong then gave her some instructions and even immediately sent a team of his trusted confidants to the Peace Base. Lin Man was a little frightened when she heard this and quickly said, "Dad, since you've arranged for someone to come over, there's no need to worry about this. I'll go with you. I should be able to help."

Lin Zhongrong said, "Silly child, this is not something you should worry about. If everything goes well, Dad will be back soon." Then, without waiting for Lin Manduo to say anything, Lin Zhongrong said he was leaving and hung up.

Lin Man felt a little depressed. What should she do now? They were so far away. Even if she rushed over immediately, her father would probably be gone long ago. She sat there for a moment, then immediately went to the management meeting. Soon, the communications center was under repair, and the three communication machines that people paid to connect with the North were out of service. Thus, communication between the Peace Base and the North was severed, and no news could get through.

Lin Man went to make preparations to welcome Lin Zhongrong's trusted team, which consisted of 10,000 people. If anything happened to Lin Zhongrong, these 10,000 people would be entrusted to her. It was also the last thing he could give her as a father.

Then she slowly calmed down. Her father was so brave, he would surely succeed and come back safely... But Lin Cheng was right there where the accident happened. It wasn't that he couldn't be contacted just like that. He was there when they had eliminated all the enemies and were preparing to come back.

Lin Man took out a transparent warning symbol that looked like a jade plate. If, if he really encountered an extremely dangerous situation, Lin Cheng would probably use this to inform him. Now that this thing was not broken, he should be fine.
