Chapter 265: If more people trust you, it will be of some use



"Didn't you say you wanted to eat egg fried rice? I cooked some extra rice yesterday."

Zhang Qiu was used to Yu Xifeng's impulsiveness, so he asked, "Corn or kelp?"

"kelp."

She wanted to drink something salty.

At noon, I had the kelp and pork ribs soup as I wished, and the soup was shiny with fresh oil.

Freshly slaughtered pig, prime rib.

Served with egg fried rice and stir-fried cabbage.

After eating, Yu Xifeng practiced boxing while Zhang Qiu saw a patient.

The two of them were busy with their own things.

Before four o'clock, Zhang Qiu finished his consultation and came over to Yu Xifeng and said, "How often should we go out to get water? Is it appropriate?"

Before dark, Zhang Qiu would run once a day.

There is water in the Yuxifeng space, and the water quality is better than the well water here.

The water used by both of them came from Yu Xifeng's space.

But I never go, so it doesn't matter if no one sees me.

If someone noticed it, it would be hard to explain.

Yu Xifeng thought for a moment and said, "Let's go today. I'll go with you and we can visit A ​​Yue on the way."

The two men carried the buckets and went out in the dark. Zhang Qiu carried the emergency kit and hung the crossbow on it.

Whenever he went out, he was fully armed and carried a heavy load.

It can also be considered as improving physical strength.

Yu Xifeng was originally going to take the flashlight, but then he remembered something, put the flashlight back, and lit the candle he had received for the first-class medal.

Everything outside was pitch black, with only the dim light from the street lamps.

It's like walking in a fog where you can't see the sun.

Yu Xifeng roughly knew why Zhang Qiu’s talismans sold so well.

Walking on a night road like this, this talisman, whether useful or not, is a kind of psychological support.

Yu Xifeng glanced at Zhang Qiu's face, which looked like he was facing a great enemy.

Well, I don’t know whether this charlatan is afraid of the dark or ghosts.

Yu Xifeng watched the joke for a while and felt Zhang Qiu put something in his pocket.

She took out a talisman from her pocket.

Zhang Qiu said calmly, "This talisman has been trusted by many people, so it will be of some use. Don't worry, I'm here."

Just like a temple, when more people worship it, something useless becomes useful.

Yu Xifeng held the talisman, feeling a little touched and a little amused.

The Northern Base has experience in dealing with natural disasters, so it should be closed.

If you really have nothing to eat, you can find the guard and apply for subsidies with your urban identity card, and you can get some food so you won't starve to death.

This is also the reason why so many people are trying their best to move into the urban area.

After leaving the community, a person suddenly rushed out from the darkness.

Just grab the candle in Yu Xifeng's hand.

The candle wick crushed his hand, but the robber seemed not to be afraid of the burn at all.

Yu Xifeng turned his wrist, and the candlelight drew an arc.

The man missed his target, and Yu Xifeng kicked him out without even looking closely.

The man fell to the ground, got up and started running.

You can tell at first glance that he is a skilled worker.

The crossbow arrows shot into the darkness.

He didn't catch up with the figure in one step, and it was swallowed up by the darkness in the blink of an eye.

All this happened in a flash, and the man soon disappeared from sight.

Yu Xifeng couldn’t tell for the time being whether there were any accomplices, so he didn’t continue chasing.

The visibility is really low.

Zhang Qiu said, "Are you okay?"

Yu Xifeng's eyes fell on the candle in his hand. After thinking for a while, he took out a flashlight from his bag.

You'll be remembered anyway, so you might as well take a closer look.

Yu Xifeng said: "I'm fine, let's go."

Zhang Qiu retrieved the arrow he had shot in vain.

I always suspected that there were people with bad intentions lurking in the night, and I was always watching.

The two arrived at the garage where A Yue's house was.

The garage door was closed.

Yu Xifeng knocked on the door and after making a sound, A Yue nervously pulled him in.

Yu Xifeng walked into the garage and saw that A Yue had also hung a curtain on the crack of the door.

Used to block light.

"Do you know that there is a family in our area that was killed by a black household, and we still haven't found out who killed them."

A Yue had a kerosene lamp and a candle, apparently he didn't want to be noticed.

Ah Yue sighed: "There are fewer people coming out, and I can't even get any business."

"Is there any more food?" Yu Xifeng asked.

"I saved up a little bit before, now I just hope I can hold on. It's only been a few days and it's already so chaotic outside."

When Yu Xifeng tells A Yue to be alone, he should not slack off in practicing boxing.

Ah Yue said, "I heard that there are people squatting at the well. I still have more than a bucket of water here. How about I give you some? Use it first."

Yu Xifeng didn't want it, but A Yue's water was also limited.

We've come this far, so the remaining few steps won't make a difference.

Ah Yue thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go with you. There will be more people and more eyes."

A Yue also brought two empty buckets, and the three of them went to the well together.

On the way, we met a few people who were going to fetch water together.

The couple upstairs, Tang Jie and Huang Hong, were also there, and neither of them looked well.

Especially when he saw Yu Xifeng's flashlight, his face turned even worse.

Yu Xifeng listened to it.

On the way here, Tang Jie's flashlight was stolen.

Even candles are being snapped up, and flashlights are definitely a big deal.

Both the husband and wife are civil servants and cannot keep the job.

People who fetched water consciously formed a circle around the well.

To prevent a villain from rushing out from the blind spot.

Nowadays, the illegal residents who roam around the city and rob people under the cover of night are called "hei diaozhai".

Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu each carried two buckets.

This time we will fetch enough water and I won’t have to go out for at least three days.

Tang Jie said: "Other fortune tellers can carry two buckets at a time, but you have to make two trips and ask me to accompany you. I even lost my flashlight. What's the use of you?"

Fortune teller,

In this area, there is no one else I can think of except Zhang Qiu.

Huang Hong threw the bucket to the ground and said, "I am not the only one who needs to fetch this water. Why don't you help me? You just blame me every day."

The two of them started arguing at the mouth of the well.

"If you want to argue, go back and argue. Don't you see there's a queue behind you?"

"What are you doing? Don't waste everyone's time."

"Don't be silly."

Let it go. It's fun to watch, so you can watch it for a while longer.

Anyway, you can't fetch water at any time.

But now, no one tolerates it.

Even the action of pressing water was much faster.

No one wants to stay in the dark night for too long.

The couple knew what was right, and Huang Hong continued to work.

Tang Jie muttered, "Why don't you install a few more lights near the well? It's too dim. The park is much brighter than this."

No one paid any attention to her.

Tang Jie couldn't hold back his anger, and said to Yu Xifeng, "Your flashlight consumes batteries, right? It's bright, but it doesn't last long. Now the better flashlights have built-in hand-cranked charging. It's a pity that mine was taken away, otherwise I could have let you see it."

Yu Xifeng glanced at her and said, "No need."

She must have nothing better to do, so she would leave the charging port unused and go and use a manual crank.
