Chapter 653 Fishing
That day, the weather was gloomy and the wind was cold.
It's getting colder, but the mudslides show no signs of freezing, which doesn't make sense at all.
Jingshu had quietly wrapped herself in an extra sweater and put on extra long-sleeved shirts and long trousers, making her look a little bloated.
Many people in the building are already shivering and huddling together for warmth. There's nothing they can do as the building is as cold as an ice cellar.
We couldn't run because that would consume too much food, so we could only hug each other in the hall like a pile of monks. No one had taken a shower or changed clothes for a long time, and even though it was very cold, there was inevitably a strange smell.
The whole building was filled with this stench.
That day, after Jun Jia returned, he held an emergency meeting and worked out several self-rescue plans. Just as Jun Jia said, he started to get busy and implemented several plans at the same time, so you could see that many people had work to do.
That day, after taking roll call in the box as usual, Jingshu gave Xiao Liu some instructions, then got up and left with the tools in her hand.
"Hey wait, Jingshu, where are you going?" Jin Baba called from behind.
Jingshu turned her head and pointed at the homemade fishing rod in her hand and said, "Fishing."
"Fishing?" Jin Baba pointed at the steel bar in Jingshu's hand, wanting to say something but stopping himself, with a strange look on his face. Seeing Jingshu was about to leave again, he said, "Wait for me, I'll go too." He wanted to see what Jingshu was up to.
Then I saw Jingshu walking in front by herself, and Jin Baba following closely behind her.
The students only started to murmur after the two left:
"What are these two up to? You didn't see it, that thick steel bar, Jingshu really treated it like a fishing rod. It's really scary."
"The question is, when did Brother Ba become Jingshu's follower? Master Lan, you and Brother Ba have a good relationship, what's going on?"
Lan Shao rubbed his red and swollen hands and gritted his teeth, "I don't know."
"I really envy Brother Ba. His family has connections, so no one assigns him any work. Look, Master Lan has to work with us."
"I envy Jingshu, she can leave the building whenever she wants without having to work."
“Why don’t they have to work?”
"We have to eat, so we have to work."
"It seems Jingshu never goes to the cafeteria to eat."
"Maybe they run a small canteen."
Jiang Changke twitched his sore elbow and said, "Of course the big boss eats biscuits like Brother Ba. Speaking of which, it seems like they've mixed red nematode biscuits into their meals these past few days. I eat that stuff all the time, so I'm very familiar with it."
Many classmates' eyes lit up, especially Lan Shao, who now had to eat the same food as everyone else.
"I heard there's a reward for reporting hidden grain."
"That's our classmate."
"Aren't you curious about what Brother Ba and Jingshu are eating? Why don't they share some with us?"
...
There is a patrol team outside the building. In order to prevent the tragedy of that day from happening again, no one is allowed to go out. There are also 24-hour patrols both inside and outside, and no corner is left untouched.
"Sister, are you free?" Li Chenglong handed over a cup of boiling hot water and smiled, "Drink some to warm yourself up. It's cold outside."
"I don't want to drink anymore. I'm going to the outside." Jingshu watched Li Chenglong calling dozens of soldiers to start a big project: filtering water. The filtered water was boiled on the spot, and the soil on the other side was boiled into bowls.
The fuel was only recently solved. Someone used their expertise to make biogas from feces, but I heard it's very dangerous and could explode if you're not careful! So it was set up on the outside.
This is at least a perfect cycle: the feces of more than 2,000 people are used to make biogas as fuel every day, mudslides are dug to filter water, and the soil is burned to make various daily necessities.
It’s just that now everyone eats less, and even the feces are much less. Many people only defecate once a week.
"Sister, I'll go with you. It's dangerous outside. A monster might pop out." Li Chenglong put down the hand-warming cup and took Jingshu to the outside.
Jin Baba looked at Li Chenglong with disdain, what a bootlicker, and quickly followed Jingshu.
The wind was very strong, and everyone wrapped themselves tightly in their clothes. They soon reached the border, where a one-meter-high wall had been built. Jingshu easily jumped over it and watched the turbulent black mudslide shaking constantly, with more mudslides constantly washing up.
Just as magical as the waves.
Their current location is equivalent to the stern of a large ship, and the building is moving at an upward angle of 35°, so mudslides cannot flow in. Otherwise, Jingshu would really think that the building is actually a powered large ship.
Li Chenglong also climbed up easily. He scratched his head and said, "It's pitch black and I can't see anything. But my uncle said, 'Sis, you are someone who wants to observe the stars at night and do great things. If you have any difficulties, just come to me and I will definitely help you.'"
"Let's go fishing and see if we can catch any fish." Jing Shu waved the steel bar in her hand. It was very long and good, meeting her requirements very well. Then she shook the homemade fishing rod a few times, and by inertia, she threw out a long string of steel fishing line with insect cakes.
'The fishing line was caught in the mudslide in the blink of an eye, and as the building swayed, it was quickly submerged in the black mudslide ocean.
Jin Baba opened his mouth and said, "Are you really here to fish?"
Li Chenglong blinked his eyes. Sure enough, what Sister Jing did was not ordinary. Although he didn't understand, it was enough for him to know that she was doing something big.
“Gugu…”
Li Chenglong's stomach rumbled uncomfortably, and he coughed awkwardly: "How about I go back and drink some water." He could still fill himself up with water.
Jin Baba snorted even more disdainfully and climbed up grunting.
“Gugu…”
Jin Baba's stomach also growled.
"I used too much force just now..." Jin Baba was also embarrassed. He really didn't eat as much as a pig recently. He couldn't finish the food in the cafeteria.
“Gugu…”
At this time, Jingshu's stomach also growled.
This was awkward. The three of them looked at each other for a while. Jingshu sighed, took out a black and hard yogurt lump from her pocket, and handed it to the two of them: "Eat it."
Li Chenglong chuckled, took it and took a big bite. Sister Jing is indeed Sister Jing. She still has food to eat at this time. Amazing.
"Crack."
His tooth almost fell out, and Li Chenglong was in so much pain that tears came out.
"...eat it while slurping it. These are milk lumps, as hard as stones. You don't want to chew them." Jingshu reminded.
After a while, the three men were sitting on the city wall, each holding a lump of milk, and slurping it mouthful by mouthful. They couldn't hurry and couldn't bite it.
"It tastes good, but it's a chore on the tongue." Li Chenglong felt a little aggrieved.
"Shut up and practice your tongue skills. Once you master them, which woman can't you pursue?"
"Brother Xiaoba, you really know a lot. Can you practice tongue skills like this? Like this?"
"Be more flexible, don't be so static, it's best to use the tip of your tongue."
Jing Shu: "I'll take the trouble to kick a lump of yogurt back at you."
