Wang Xin and his friends were being targeted.
Today, they have less stuff again.
There was less yesterday and the day before yesterday.
They don't know who it is.
Is it the shifty woman next to him, or the man who keeps staring at Xiaocao with lustful eyes, or is it...
They don't know.
All they knew was that they were being targeted.
"Brother Wang Xin, it's all my fault. I was too careless that day, so they found it." After knowing that his things were lost again, A Qian felt very guilty.
When Wang Xin and his companions first arrived at the cave, there were fewer people and life was a little better for them.
It rained heavily and many people fell ill.
Fortunately, none of them got sick and they all survived.
At the beginning, when the base distributed food, Wang Xin was very foresighted and told everyone not to eat all the food.
If the rain continues, the base will not continue to provide them with food.
It was raining heavily and they were too young, so the base would not assign them any missions.
They brought too little food, and if the base didn't provide them with food, they would starve.
Everyone listened to Wang Xin's words. Although they were very hungry, they did not finish all the food they received. Instead, they only ate one-third and saved the remaining two-thirds.
After saving for a while, I have quite a few.
So after the base stopped distributing food, they didn't live too miserably.
When others are crying out for food, they can still secretly nibble on the steamed buns they had saved.
Although I am still very hungry, I am better off than others and I shouldn’t starve to death.
Later, they finished the food they had saved and went hungry like everyone else.
Wang Xin gritted his teeth and secretly exchanged the sausage for more food from people who were not short of food.
I originally wanted to exchange it for contribution points, but now there is no way.
He was also smart. He didn't take out all five sausages at once. Instead, he took them one by one. When he finished eating the food he exchanged for one, he would take another one.
And every time I would switch with a different person, and I would do it at night when there was no light, and lower my voice to ensure that I would not be recognized.
Thanks to his cautiousness, he has never been targeted.
In the end, all five sausages were replaced, and they successfully survived the rainstorm.
They originally thought that after surviving the rainstorm, they could return to the base. After the disaster, the base would need a lot of manpower, and if they worked hard, they would be able to barely fill their stomachs.
Who knew that after the rainstorm, the sun would come out so fiercely.
You'll lose a layer of skin as soon as you go out.
They also heard that the houses in the base were hotter than outside, and people would faint and die after going in for a few hours.
They could only hide in the cave again.
It was hot in the cave, too, extremely hot.
But they can endure it, they are used to all kinds of disasters.
But I'm hungry.
I'm so hungry.
Wang Xin broke out in a cold sweat when he saw Goudan licking the dirt on the ground.
Can't eat dirt.
Eating dirt can fill your stomach, but you will die soon.
They... they don't have to go to this point yet.
Wang Xin remembered the box of instant noodles they had buried in the ground.
right.
They still have a box of instant noodles, so they won't die.
They will definitely get through this year.
So, when the base suggested that everyone adjust their biological clocks and stay indoors during the day and come out at night, Wang Xin took A Qian and Goudan and secretly returned to their shabby house.
The dilapidated house had been flooded for so long that it collapsed long ago, and the collapsed bricks, stones and soil were also washed away by the water.
The firewood they had worked so hard to find was also washed away, but some of it was not washed far away, and they found some firewood nearby.
The firewood had been soaked in water for so long that it was completely wet, but after being exposed to the scorching sun for a few days, all the moisture was gone.
They found some firewood, determined the location, and started digging with sticks.
It took a long time to dig it out.
Wang Xin and the others were delighted to see the exposed instant noodle box. Fortunately, it was still there.
The cardboard of the instant noodle box has rotted, but fortunately the instant noodles inside are fine.
Goudan held the instant noodles and kept swallowing his saliva. He was so hungry that he wanted to eat dirt, and now seeing the instant noodles, he didn't know how hard it was to hold back his saliva.
"Be patient, you can't eat instant noodles directly. We can exchange them for more food." Wang Xin was also very hungry, but he was obviously more rational than Goudan.
Goudan nodded and continued to swallow hard.
Wang Xin and his friends didn't take all the instant noodles; they only took three packets and buried the rest back in the soil.
This is their last resort.
Although it was dark and things were not clear, Wang Xin and his companions did not dare to be careless. They covered the soaked bread tightly with clothes and took some firewood as cover.
They were running back. It was a pitch-black night. With the heat coming out of their bellies and the hunger in their stomachs, Wang Hui and the others felt a little dazed as they ran.
"Brother Wang Xin, why are there no fireflies? I heard from my mother that she used to like catching fireflies at night. They were very beautiful." As A Qian was running, he thought of his mother.
He could no longer remember what his mother looked like. As a child, life in the apocalypse was too difficult for him. He was busy every day trying to make a living, often falling asleep from exhaustion.
There is little time to think about anything else.
I have plenty of time to think about my mother.
When his mother died, he didn't cry. He didn't have time to cry. Why didn't he have time? It seemed like it was because he had taken a job that provided enough food for three days.
But when he finished his work and took the food, he was so happy that he even forgot that his mother was dead.
But while running tonight, he remembered.
My mother is a very gentle person. Many people bully them, but she never scolds anyone.
She never talks back when others scold her.
She said it didn't matter.
What’s important is how to help our Ah Qian grow up.
Now A Qian has grown up, but she is gone.
My mother grew up in the countryside. She would harvest rice, lie on a mountain of rice stalks and look at the blue sky, catch dragonflies, steal oranges grown by neighbors, and catch fireflies at night. She would then put the fireflies in a transparent glass bottle to make a firefly lamp.
Mom said she missed it very much and that if there was a chance, she hoped Qian could also go and experience it.
Mom has many stories.
Whenever A Qian was too hungry to sleep, his mother would hold him in her arms and tell him stories about her past.
Later, when his mother passed away, A Qian never heard stories again.
"Fireflies? They must have mutated." Wang Xin said the most likely outcome.
When they returned to the cave, everyone had slept enough during the day, and some were chatting, some were borrowing food, and some were fighting over things.
They protected the instant noodles in their arms and returned to their positions under the cover of firewood.
But A Qian was too nervous and accidentally made a noise in the plastic bag of instant noodles.
It was heard by someone nearby.
The man felt strange and asked them if they had anything delicious.
The sound was like the sound of a plastic bag. Wang Xin and his friends were poor and had nothing like that.
He suspected that they had stolen something from someone else.
