Chapter 35 Supplementing Food
Upon receiving Ji Zai's order, Su Dan was overjoyed. "Alliance Leader, I'll go and ask the others to bring some water. You stay here and keep watch for now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed downstairs.
Ji Zai looked at the situation with some helplessness, then looked at the people inside the room.
They've all become as thin as skeletons.
She counted them carefully; there were fourteen in total.
Aside from Qing Shuang who was standing, there was another person who was awake, but she could only sit up with difficulty and couldn't stand up. It was already her limit that she didn't faint.
Just as Ji Zai was wondering, Liang Qiyue's voice came from downstairs, "Ji Zai, these zombies have been burned."
Records?
Qing Shuang's expression changed slightly upon hearing the name.
She murmured, "The records of the Chemistry Department?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Zai raised an eyebrow. "Why do you all look like you know me? Am I really that famous at school?"
If it weren't for the apocalypse...
Ji Zai was unaware that she was so famous on campus.
From the student union to education majors.
It's as if everyone knows her.
Seeing her surprised look, Qing Shuang paused for a moment, "You are the most outstanding student at Ningda University. I've heard that there's something strange about you."
Even if all universities are ranked together, you are still among the top ones.
Ji Zai was even more puzzled when he heard this.
Before she could ask anything, a voice came from downstairs again, "Leader, the zombies in the five buildings have been cleared. The guild leader led people to clear the zombies between the first and second buildings, but we found survivors in the fifth building."
The speaker asked, "What should we do now?"
What can Ji Zai do?
Let's save them.
Everyone who could run away ran away.
Those who couldn't run away were left in the dormitories.
If left untreated, the person will die in less than three days.
Ji Zai rubbed his head and said, "The rest of you, who have nothing to do, go to the dormitory and bring a few buckets of ice water to give them some water."
"good."
Immediately, some people ran back downstairs.
Because it's too hot.
As a result, many people were covered in sweat.
Ji Zai looked at the weather, paused, and walked downstairs. "July, let's go, call Nan Yao, let's drive to the warehouse again."
Liang Qiyue was putting out a fire when she heard this, and casually handed the bucket to a classmate next to her.
He clapped his hands and said, "Let's go. I also think that the food will spoil if we leave it in the warehouse any longer. We've saved so many people, and our food reserves are definitely not enough. It'll be better to move some over so we can have peace of mind."
Ji Zai nodded.
Then I went back to Building 4.
I happened to see Nan Yao sitting on the stairs, almost fainting from the heat.
Ji Zai rushed over, "Can you still hold on?"
Nan Yao almost fainted from the heat.
Seeing this, Liang Qiyue prepared to rush over and get her some water.
But Su Dan happened to come downstairs, saw this, gave her a glass of ice water, and then headed towards the third building.
Su Dan took a bucket of water, the kind they usually use to wash clothes. He put the water in, added a large block of ice to make ice water, and hurriedly headed towards the three buildings.
Nan Yao felt much better after drinking some water. "What happened?"
Ji Zai said, "Drive, let's go move some food. There are a few more people in the dormitory area now, and we might not have enough food. Let's go and move some back while it's still safe enough."
After Nan Yao calmed down, she said, "Alright, let's go."
The three reached a consensus.
Then Nan invited him to get in the car, first turning on the air conditioning, and then starting the car.
The temperature is currently as high as 70°C, so it's still considered safe.
If the angle reaches 90 degrees, the tires under the car will probably melt.
Ji Zai got into the car and first opened the door. A blast of hot air rushed out, and she picked up a hose to cool down the car.
While the temperature dropped, they shouted, "The rest of you, if you can still run, hurry up and get to the warehouse to move the grain. Everyone who goes will get thirty kilograms of rice. Don't miss out!"
Because the zombies had burned out, many people returned to their dormitories to rest.
Upon hearing the sound, they all came downstairs.
Ji Zai counted them and said, "Alright, 60 is enough. Including us, that makes 63. The rest of you can go and help Su Dan take care of some of the patients next door."
After she finished speaking, she said to the people in the car, "The car is all wet now, and it's hot, so don't close the doors, or you'll get heatstroke."
"knew."
After doing all that, Ji Zai got into the back seat. "Nan Yao, drive."
Nan nodded.
The group headed towards the gate.
When I arrived at the gate of the dormitory area, I saw a zombie being burned.
In front of the dormitory area gate, there were still more than a dozen zombies on the verge of death.
Ji Zai opened the gate and said, "Nan Yao, just crush them. Ignore the zombies in front of the gate; let them act as gatekeepers to reduce bad luck."
Nan Yao nodded, and then the truck ran over her directly.
Ouyang Yi happened to be passing by zombies on this stretch of road when she saw them leaving. She called out, "Be careful, don't get heatstroke."
Everyone: "Understood."
They split into two groups.
Ouyang Yi stayed behind to take care of the remaining elderly, weak, sick and disabled people in the dormitory area.
Ji Zai led his men out to find food.
The journey takes only two minutes.
Ji Zai frowned as he looked at the zombies falling along the way. "Even the zombies are falling. This high temperature is truly terrifying."
“Yeah…” a girl said, “The road smelled of burning and rotting, it made me dizzy.”
Before they set off, they brought several buckets of ice to cool them down.
Even so, it still feels very hot.
The kind of heat that makes you feel like you're going to faint.
When they passed the campus lake, Ji Zai noticed that the water level had dropped by half.
The extreme heat is terrifying.
We arrived at the warehouse quickly.
The warehouse hasn't changed; the locks are still the same, and even the placement of the items hasn't changed.
It seems that no one else has come here except them.
It makes sense when you think about it.
Students' understanding of the apocalypse comes solely from apocalyptic novels.
The post-apocalyptic novels only told them about places like convenience stores, canteens, and delivery stations.
They were not informed that there was actually a warehouse inside the school.
The food in the warehouse is enough to support the school's living expenses for a month.
It is the richest place in the school.
After getting off the bus, Liang Qiyue jumped down, opened the warehouse door, and sure enough, it was so hot and stuffy that it made her dizzy.
Liang Qiyue took a big gulp of ice water. "Let's do something big, sisters! Let's go!"
Liang Qiyue rushed out immediately.
The remaining sixty men also rushed out.
Bags of rice were loaded onto the truck.
Nan Yao was about to faint. She had been staying by the car the whole time. She turned her head and saw Ji Zai's furrowed brows. She asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Ji Zai paused for a moment, then said, "You wait for them here. I'll go out for a while. If I haven't returned in half an hour, you can take them back first."
Nan Yao's expression changed upon hearing this. "What do you want to do?"
“I’m going to check what’s going on outside,” Ji Zai said, pointing to the path. “I suspect the reason there are zombies in the school is because the school gates weren’t closed. Now all the zombies are charred and unable to move. I’ll take this opportunity to close the gates.”
"The school has two main gates, one of which is 500 meters away from the warehouse."
"There's another one that's almost two kilometers away from here."
"As long as it's shut down, our safety will be guaranteed."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yao's expression changed drastically. "Are you crazy? It's dangerous for you to go alone. What if something happens?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
As Ji Zai spoke, he ran outside. "The zombies are immobile now, this is our best chance. If we don't close the door, more zombies will come here in the future."
"You guys carry it first, I'll be right back."
