Chapter 349: Revealing the Cattle News
The base commander now lives on the 6th floor.
Ye Wei and Zhao Lei used to live on the 5th floor.
It has been a few days since they arrived here, and this is the first time Han Ying and Lu Yuan have entered this building.
The inside of the building was very clean, and there was no pile of garbage or debris to be seen in the corridors and stairs on other floors along the way.
It is very likely that Ye Wei and Zhao Lei had cleaned it before, of course it is also possible that it was cleaned up after the large team arrived.
Arriving at the innermost door 603, Ye Wei knocked twice.
Soon the door was opened and the base commander Kozin stood inside.
"It's been more than 20 days since we last met. Come in and sit down!"
Ke Qin opened the door and invited Han Ying and Lu Yuan in.
After Ye Wei sent the person there, he saluted to Ke Qin and left.
"Hello, Base Commander."
Both of them greeted Kozin before going in.
"Don't be so polite. There is no such thing as a base commander now. When you come here, you have to start all over again."
"How was it? Did you have a smooth journey here?"
Ke Qin let the two of them in. There was a set of wooden sofas that looked a bit old in the living room.
Keqin has walked this road from Pengcheng Base to Jiangcheng three times.
He basically remembers the road conditions of these three times.
So this time when he came here and saw the road conditions that were different from before, he could guess that this trip would not be easy for Han Ying and her group.
Especially the pile of charred and rotten rat carcasses on the road dozens of kilometers away from the Pengcheng base.
He didn't believe that tens of thousands of mice would die so easily on the road.
Judging from the marks, he was either crushed to death by a heavy object or burned to death.
When he saw the tens of thousands of dead rats, Kozin's first reaction was not disgust, but fear.
If this large number of rats had not died here, but migrated all the way to the base.
Or did they encounter it on the way here?
That would be an absolute disaster!
Ke Xin guessed that there was an 80% chance that the dead rats were killed by Han Ying and her team.
As for how they were able to kill so many rats, Kozin didn't want to explore it too much.
"It's OK. No matter what happened on the road, our entire car, with a total of 9 people and a dog, arrived in Jiangcheng safely."
Han Ying said after she rubbed a handful of Tangyuan who was squatting next to her.
"You have worked hard. If it weren't for you paving the way, I'm afraid the large army wouldn't have been able to reach Jiangcheng so smoothly this time."
He has walked this 400-kilometer road three times, and no one knows better than him how difficult it is for the advance troops.
"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, I wonder how the plague is going in Pengcheng now?"
It has been more than 20 days since Han Ying and his team left Pengcheng Base and they are no longer clear about the situation there.
"It's very pessimistic, so after we rest here, the army plans to go back tomorrow night to pick up the second group of people to be transferred."
"The road conditions are getting better and better. I believe this trip should be very quick."
"And we have discovered another road. We will take that route tomorrow night. If everything goes well, we can avoid going around a mountain and save more than a hundred kilometers."
Gasoline is very precious nowadays. If a fleet can save more than 100 kilometers of distance, how much gasoline can be saved?
"That's great. Which mountain is it?"
Along the way, we went around two mountains.
Han Ying and his team also found the herd of cattle on the first Yincui Mountain.
"Yincui Mountain. If this trip back goes smoothly, we can save the trouble of going around Yincui Mountain."
As he spoke, Kozin took out a map and showed them the newly discovered road.
"If everything goes smoothly from this side, it can indeed save a long detour."
"But speaking of Silver Green Mountain, Base Commander, when you came here, did you find anything on the mountain?"
Han Ying pointed to Yincui Mountain on the map and asked Keqin.
"Yincui Mountain? Apart from the dead trees all over the mountain, there's nothing to see there?"
Ke Qin knew that Han Ying would ask this question, and there must be some situation over there.
"When we passed by Yincui Mountain, we found a herd of cattle there, and we even shot one."
The environment is getting worse and worse, and it is probably becoming increasingly difficult for the remaining cows to survive.
If we can find them here at the base and capture them to raise, it would be better than letting them starve to death in the mountains.
"Cattle? Are you serious?"
Hearing Han Ying's words, Ke Qin stood up directly from the sofa.
"Of course it's true! And there should be at least two bulls and one cow over there, all of them are adult cows."
Lu Yuan assured.
"Great, no, we can't take the new road this time, let's go back to Yincui Mountain!"
When he heard that there were bulls and cows, Kozin immediately changed his mind.
You can't blame him for being too excited. There were originally cows in the base, but before he came to Jiangcheng, the farm said that something had happened to the cows and there was a high possibility that those cows would not survive.
The farm tried very hard to take care of the cows, but something still happened to them.
The base is still counting on them to reproduce. If something really happens, where can they find more breeding cows?
I didn’t expect Han Ying and her friends to be so lucky that they could encounter a herd of cattle in the mountains!
So no matter what, we have to go back to that mountain and look for it again.
"We found a small puddle of water in a cave about three-fifths of the way down. You can look for it there. The cattle are likely to go there to drink water."
The cow and calf with their baby that Han Ying had sent into the space were found in that cave.
So let them look there, maybe they will find something.
"Okay, if you really find the cow, I'll give you credit for it!"
Kozin laughed loudly, and suddenly he thought of something, "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, did you meet a disabled person on the road?"
After hearing what Ke Qin said, Han Ying and Lu Yuan looked at each other and immediately thought of Zhuang Zi.
"Did he come with the main force?"
Han Ying got the mutant soybean pods from Zhuang Zi, so she left him a message.
He said that an official convoy would pass by in a short time, and if he intended to leave that place, he could find a way to attract the attention of the authorities.
It seems that Zhuang Zi has made a decision.
"Yes, he also lives in this building now, on the 7th floor, with us soldiers."
"He said there was a man and a woman with a big dog, and I immediately thought it was you two."
Ke Xin glanced at the big dog squatting next to Han Ying.
This iconic big dog has now become a living signboard for Han Ying and Lu Yuan.
