Chapter 857 Rebuilding the Old House



Upon hearing what the person in front said, Lu Yuan quickly stepped in front of Xiao Shan and raised his hands.

"Brothers in front, don't get me wrong, we are the original owners of this house, we just came to take a look."

The people in front were stunned for a moment after hearing Lu Yuan's words.

Then the other person took out a pistol from his waist and slowly walked towards Lu Yuan.

"What a joke! We've lived in this house for three years. You claim it as yours, but what proof do you have?"

Upon hearing the other party's words, Lu Yuan's face showed a hint of helplessness.

"Brother, don't misunderstand. I can testify that I built this house before the apocalypse. If you've examined the walls, you should be able to find that they contain a layer of lead plate, an insulation layer, a thermal insulation layer, and a reinforced concrete structure."

"If I'm wrong every time, the ground you're standing on used to be a fishpond, and to your left is a vegetable garden behind the house. If you're lucky enough to have dug it up, you should have been able to find some potatoes and sweet potatoes."

Then, Lu Yuan told the other party some secrets about the house he had built before.

After listening, the other person's face showed a look of shock. He did not expect that Lu Yuan knew more about the house than he did, and that the other person was basically right about everything.

"You...you are really the owner of this house?"

Lu Yuan nodded and shrugged slightly: "That's right, this house is mine."

After hearing this, the other party immediately shouted into the house, and then several people came out of the house.

There were about a dozen people, each carrying a gun, and they all looked at Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan warily.

"Brother, they say this house belongs to them, and they just revealed some secrets about these houses. They're probably the owners!"

The man at the head, whose hair was already somewhat gray, showed a look of surprise on his face after hearing his words.

Did he say what he meant by coming? Is he planning to take the house back?

The man shook his head slightly: "He didn't say that! But I feel like he probably means it. Why don't we have a proper talk with him?"

Why did the man think for a moment, then nod, and then walk up to Lu Yuan with his gun in hand?

However, when he saw Lu Yuan, he found that the man looked somewhat familiar.

"Hmm? You look so familiar! I feel like I've seen you somewhere before!"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuan finally decided to reveal his true identity.

"Oh, I guess you've seen me on posters or brochures!"

The other person paused for a moment after hearing this, and immediately thought of someone.

Then he slapped his forehead, a look of surprise on his face.

"I remember now, you...you're Lu Yuan, and that camp over there is yours! Haha, I never thought I'd actually meet such an important person!"

His words immediately attracted the attention of the people behind him, who came up one by one and carefully looked at Lu Yuan.

"What's wrong, brother? Did you find out something again?"

The man in the lead slung his gun behind his back, then pointed at Lu Yuan and introduced him to the crowd: "Hey, don't you guys know this guy?"

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan again, as if they had seen him somewhere before, but they couldn't remember who he was.

The eldest brother then spoke.

"Isn't that Lu Yuan, the highest-ranking officer from the camp ahead? I saw him in the brochure before!"

A smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face: "Yes, it's me, I'm Lu Yuan, nice to meet you all!"

Why did that man scratch his head, then shake hands with Lu Yuan, his face flushed with excitement?

"Hello Mr. Lu, my name is Shen Chuan. These are my brothers. We've lived here for a long time and have always wanted to visit you, but we haven't had the chance!"

Lu Yuan knew, of course, that what the other party said was just him trying to make himself look good. How could he possibly have a chance to find him?

There are many people in the camp who want to see me now, but those who can see me are basically the core or high-level people. People at the grassroots level rarely have the right to see me.

"Haha, hello Shenchuan, I brought my wife here mainly to see our hometown. Is this convenient for you?"

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, the other party quickly pointed behind him and said, "Hey, what are you saying? This house is yours, of course you have the right to it. We're just staying here temporarily. Please come in, please come in!"

Lu Yuan nodded and led Xiao Shan to the front of the house.

The pond and other things in the yard had been buried in the soil, while the building behind it still stood firm among the mounds of earth.

Once inside the room, Lu Yuan felt somewhat regretful to find that the entire house was a mess, with trash and cigarette butts scattered everywhere on the floor.

A small fire was lit in the center of the living room, which made the house warm.

Because the house uses insulated panels, as long as a campfire is lit on the first floor, the second and third floors can maintain a certain temperature.

Lu Yuan looked into the room: "Where's the furniture?"
