Chapter 283 Ending, Walking Towards the Sun
"There's oil. We've found oil."
That day, Meng Ci and Shen Que drove to the goods exchange point and exchanged ten liters of oil.
As soon as I went out, I saw a man running in excitedly from outside.
Meng Ci and Shen Que did not rush to leave, but stood aside and listened to the whole process.
Although the zombies have disappeared and the mutated plants and animals are slowly disappearing, the previously polluted river water has not yet recovered.
So in order to find a suitable water source, officials turned their attention underground.
The well digger that Lin Jun and his friends knew before has become a hot commodity.
And today, when we were drilling, we saw liquid flowing out from the ground after digging only a hundred meters.
Everyone originally thought it was water, but when they walked closer, they were surprised to find that the gushing liquid was black and had a smell similar to petroleum.
Continuing to dig deeper, we saw streams of black liquid coming out from the ground.
Everyone was stunned and couldn't believe what they saw.
After all, normally, one has to dig thousands of meters deep to find oil, but now, after only digging more than a hundred meters, oil has been found.
For those who are working hard to rebuild their homes, this oil is undoubtedly a timely help.
Many mechanical equipment rely on gasoline and diesel as power sources. Now that there is a local oil supply, the construction process will be greatly accelerated.
However, the surprises don’t end there.
Just a few days after the discovery of oil, coal was discovered.
Not only that, good news has also come from other parts of the earth, and various resources have emerged like mushrooms after rain.
Perhaps nature has realized that it has brought great disaster to mankind in the past few years, and is now beginning to generously provide various precious non-renewable resources to help mankind get back on its feet.
With these resources, home construction is progressing faster and faster.
In order to enhance communication between bases, the government began recruiting workers to clean and repair highways and other major roads.
In this way, half a year passed.
Just when everyone was enjoying their lives, the temperature in June continued to rise and reached sixty degrees.
The residents were suffering terribly, some even shed tears, fearing that the end of the world would come again.
Meng Ci and Shen Que stayed at home with the air conditioner on and a lot of ice cubes placed around the house. When they saw the temperature was so high, they began to wonder if the end of the world had not ended yet.
The high temperature lasted for three days, and then disappeared in an instant, and the temperature returned to around 35 degrees.
Crash.
Without any warning, it started raining heavily.
The sudden heavy rain worried many people, who were afraid that heavy rain would come again.
Fortunately, twenty-four hours later, the heavy rain stopped and everything seemed to have calmed down.
The residents lived cautiously for several days, thinking that another natural disaster was coming.
But unexpectedly, I received good news from the official.
The river water that was previously detected to be polluted by the authorities has now been tested again and is fine, so residents no longer need to be cautious when using water.
As for the soil that previously needed to be treated, agricultural experts have developed suitable fertilizers to improve the soil, and things are really getting better this time.
Chen Que's space disappeared as early as when he was getting the vaccine. Fortunately, Chen Que had put everything inside with Meng Ci in advance.
However, Meng Ci's space had nothing to do with supernatural powers, so it did not disappear.
Now that everything has returned to calm, Meng Ci and Shen Que entered the space to check what was inside.
Not even one-third of the seeds for various crops have been used, and the various antiques, solar panels, instrument parts and other items that were previously stockpiled are now of no use.
So Meng Ci planned to find a time to take it out secretly.
It is better to leave it to the official than to leave it in the space and collect dust.
Shen indeed had no objection.
So late one night, Meng Ci and Shen Que came to the base, placed the things directly not far from the military area in the dark, and made a noise so that they could see the things in time, and then left without being noticed.
After hearing the noise, the soldier on guard took out a flashlight to check!
I was very surprised when I saw a lot of things there.
At first I thought I was dazzled because I didn’t get enough rest while on guard duty.
After confirming that the thing really existed, he quickly called other people.
The soldiers who were originally resting were called up and started to move things.
When moving things, we made a rough classification and then moved them to the corresponding places.
The next day, the news reached other people in the base. After learning about this, the residents thought of the oil and coal that had been released earlier and thought it was God's will.
Some people who believe in ghosts and gods directly kneel down and kowtow to thank God.
Meng Ci and Shen Que, who actually handed over the things, were still sleeping at this time.
After all, tidying up the space required manual work, so the two of them were busy for most of the night, and then they rushed out to put the things away.
More than two months passed, and Meng Ci and Shen Que heard that many obstacles on the road had been cleared, and that vehicles from other bases had indeed arrived in the past few days, so Meng Ci and Shen Que decided to go out for a walk.
However, before he could take any action, Lu Chen suddenly ran over.
And looking at his happy face, Meng Ci immediately realized that he might be with Uncle Qiao.
Sure enough, after Lu Chen saw Meng Ci and the others, the first thing he said was: "Comrade Meng, Comrade Shen, Mo Yan and I are together."
Meng Ci was not surprised by the result and congratulated him.
Lu Chen touched his head and said thank you.
Then he mentioned that he planned to build a house next to Meng Ci and live in it with Qiao Moyan.
After all, Qiao Moyan is introverted and is familiar with Meng Ci and the others, so he can be taken care of by living together.
Hearing this, Meng Ci's eyes lit up.
After all, he was planning to go out for a walk with Shen Que, and if Qiao Moyan and the others lived nearby, they could help look after them.
Then he gave a key to the house to Lu Chen and asked them to help take care of it.
After knowing that Meng Ci and the others were going out to play, Lu Chen, in addition to recruiting them, also said that he would definitely take Qiao Moyan out for a walk in the future.
As for what happened to Qiao Moyan in the tunnel before, Lu Chen didn't say anything and Meng Ci didn't ask, but he knew that with Qiao Moyan's personality, he would definitely tell it.
Just as Meng Ci expected, when Lu Chen confessed his feelings, Qiao Moyan realized his feelings. He didn't want to lie to others, nor did he want to lie to himself.
So he told Lu Chen what happened in the tunnel before. Lu Chen didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, he felt very distressed.
The reason why he didn't tell Meng Ci and the others was that he felt it was unnecessary. He believed that he could help Qiao Moyan out of the haze by himself.
Five days later, Lu Chen started buying materials and going through the formalities to build the house.
Meng Ci and Shen Que were ready to go, and drove out in an off-road vehicle to travel around the mountains and rivers early one morning.
"Shen Que, let's go!"
"good."
“Ouch!”
“Woof woof!”
