Lin Man thought this change was magical and also very good, so she had to support it. If she supported it, Lin Zhongrong would of course support it as well.
Lin Zhongrong stayed at the Peace Base for several more days before leaving, taking away a batch of bullets. They were given by Lin Man to the people guarding the border, including some for Lin Cheng. Knowing that the situation over there was not very good, she of course continued to do her best to support him. In addition, there was also a reply letter to Lin Cheng.
Lin Man continued to follow up on the construction of several factories, making her warning talismans and setting up her soul-locking formations. By the end of September and beginning of October, everyone at the base was quite nervous. This was all because Zhou Fen's belly was growing and she was about to give birth.
When she was first discovered to be pregnant, she was already more than three months pregnant. Because her menstruation was irregular, the due date could not be calculated. But it was almost soon, and the hospital had already set up a delivery room and an operating room, because they were worried about accidents such as difficult labor. As for the delivery team, they were all experienced people, including those from the Peace Base and the Reunion Base, a total of seven people.
After waiting like this for a long time, Zhou Fen finally went into labor one night and gave birth to a seven-pound baby girl the next morning. The moment the baby cried, the midwife, those waiting outside, and those related to Zhou Fen or not, all showed expressions of excitement and joy. Later, the doctor came out and happily announced that the baby was very healthy, and people were even more excited.
The birth of this child undoubtedly gave people peace of mind - before this, countless people were worried about giving birth to deformed babies, after all, people in other places simply couldn't give birth.
After that, Zhou Fen and the girl became the talk of the entire base, and their home became a famous sight. Every day, scores of people flocked to visit the mother and child, including Lin Man and her mother. It was the first day she'd been there, and the baby was red and wrinkled, looking ungainly, but it was growing strong. It nursed vigorously, with a ferocious, almost menacing air that amused everyone. They say that a person who eats well grows strong, and such a strong newborn was rare before the apocalypse.
But this is not difficult to understand. Zhou Fen lives in a soul-locking formation. The food she eats every day contains spiritual energy. She doesn't have to work and is served by others. She is well taken care of, and the baby in her belly is naturally well taken care of as well.
Lin Man couldn't help but ask her mother if she was like this when she was born. Chen Yu smiled and said, "You were born prematurely, and I didn't eat anything good during that time. You were very thin when you were born, not even half her size, like a kitten."
Lin Man opened her eyes wide. In her opinion, the child was already small enough, even half the size of her. Then... Lin Man compared with her hand, how small must that child be.
"But it was also because you were small, so it took your mother less effort to give birth to you. At that time, many pregnant women did not get through the childbirth stage." Not to mention the physical and time consumption, so many people were stuck in the stage of difficult labor. Even if it was a normal delivery, it was not easy to give birth without the assistance of a midwife. The problems such as birth canal tearing and bleeding that followed were also a big trouble in the end times.
Chen Yu didn't have these worries. She just gritted her teeth and endured the pain all night before giving birth to the child. It didn't cause much damage to her body, and she could get up again after a rest.
I am always worried that I can’t support my daughter.
Chen Yu recalled that he was more calm and relieved at that time, because his life is better now and he can smile when recalling the hardships he once experienced.
After Zhou Fen gave birth, another pregnant woman was about to give birth. More than ten days later, a healthy baby boy was born.
The news of the newborn baby appearing in the Peace Base finally spread.
The first one to run over was Nan Ming. He looked at the two children as if he had discovered something incredible. This was because he was a leader-level figure, and Lin Man had specially asked someone to bring the children over for him to see. Nan Ming came to his senses and said to Lin Man, "Chief Lin, you really kept such a big and wonderful thing a secret. You didn't let the news out until the children were born!"
"We can't be sure whether the child is healthy until he is born."
"Then how did the Tuanyuan Base know about this?" Nan Ming said, "We are both bases in South China. Our two families have the closest relationship."
Lin Man smiled and said, "Tuanyuan Base sent a hundred couples here and also loaned me ten professional and technical personnel. Nanming Base can follow suit."
Let’s not talk about whether we are close or not, let’s talk about something real.
Nan Ming's face was filled with pain. "One hundred couples require ten talents. Even if the Nanming base sent all the talents here, it could only accommodate a few thousand couples. In the end, they would have thousands of children. What good would that do to the development of the base? We would have to raise so many extra children then."
Lin Man spread his hands and said, "There's nothing I can do. You see, Dayan Mountain is so small, it can't accommodate so many people. There are four other bases in the north. If everyone wants to come, can I still accept them all? I have to make some conditions, right? But don't worry, I don't need so many talents here, so this condition will have to be changed later."
Nan Ming shook his head. "What kind of Feng Shui is this place? The crops grow well, the people are well cared for, and now there are even newborns."
If he had known that this mountain had magical properties, he would have occupied it long ago. The Nanming base is not far from here.
He then asked, "What about the one hundred pairs of people at the Reunion Base?"
Lin Man knew what he was asking and said, "There's no movement yet. I've only been here for over a month." It would take at least three or four months for spiritual energy to be effective in nourishing the body, right?
Nan Ming thought for a moment: "How exactly do you want to change the conditions you mentioned?"
…
At the same time, among the four major bases in the north, the top leaders of the Reunion Base had received the news long ago, and the other three bases were blown away. Their emotional explosions could be divided into three times.
The first was when they learned that the Peace Base was able to have children and already had two plump, healthy babies, a boy and a girl. The second was when they learned that the Reunion Base had known about this for a long time and had sent a hundred couples there. Although the birth of a hundred children from those hundred couples wouldn't be a big deal, it was definitely a bad sign. Without their knowledge, the Reunion Base and the Peace Base had become so close!
The third time was because of the conditions put forward by the Peace Base.
If you want to send someone there to recuperate and have a baby, you can, but in addition to the basic accommodation expenses, for every ten people who go, one person must be sent to the Peace Base. This person must also be a woman of childbearing age with good character, no bad habits, good looks, and good health. Once this person is sent to the Peace Base, they become its members and will no longer have any connection with the original base.
The popularity of the three major bases is terrible. The gender ratio is already very disparate. Now they are sending women from their own bases away, and the conditions are good? If fertility can really be restored, every woman will become very valuable!
Some people attacked the Peace Base, saying that it treated women as commodities and surplus machines that could be bought, sold and transferred at will, completely disregarding their wishes, which was inhumane and inhumane.
Lin Man hadn't received the news yet, but Lin Zhongrong was paying attention to this matter for his daughter, so he replied and said that people from the Peace Base would come to several bases to recruit people, and let women who were willing to go to the Peace Base and met the requirements sign up on their own. It would never be against their will, and they would not be forced to marry men there after going to the Peace Base. It was up to them to marry or find a partner or have children, it was all voluntary, they would just become people of the Peace Base from then on.
Of course, if there is not a single such woman in a base, that doesn’t matter. The Peace Base will not force you to do so. It’s just embarrassing. Those of you who want to go to the Peace Base to recuperate and have children, forget it.
In fact, the Reunion Base had received the news a long time ago. Although they were shocked and dissatisfied, they thought about it and held meeting after meeting. Finally, they agreed to this condition. They did not consider the issue of the decrease in the number of women and that it would be more difficult for men in the base to find a partner for the time being, because the decision was made by the leadership, and these people also wanted to have children. If they let the Peace Base come and pick some women to go, they would have a place to go.
They thought this through clearly and even hoped that people in other bases would firmly oppose it, because the Peace Base had limited capacity and there were only more than 20,000 places available this time, which could be absorbed by the Reunion Base alone.
While people in the country are struggling with the debate over the next generation, people abroad are still fighting zombies.
Before dark, those who had gone out to fight returned, and Lin Cheng's team was among them. Today, a group of zombies attacked the city of Si. A team chased them out, but it turned out to be a trap. The communicator also lost its function amidst the weird and terrifying howl of a zombie. Seeing that they were about to die in the zombie swarm, the captain made a quick decision and crushed the supernatural alarm on his body.
Lin Cheng sensed it in an instant and immediately led people to rescue. He saved the team in time and eliminated the zombie horde.
The team leader was now dusty and grimy, but his face was filled with relief. He said to Lin Cheng, "Thank you so much for today, otherwise we would have been wiped out." He sighed, "I didn't expect zombies to be able to disrupt communications by howling. Fortunately, we have the supernatural alarm."
Lin Cheng's clothes weren't particularly clean, despite having been through a battle, but he was still much neater than the others. He held his long sword, its scabbard now damaged, so transparent it was invisible without a close look. He had no other weapons. His superpowered bullets, like his superpowered guns, were limited. He already had a sword, and his superpowers were special, so he shared the bullets with others.
He said: "This is the first time I've seen this ability. It seems like they have evolved specifically to target us."
The man shuddered. "Isn't it enough to knock down all the nearby signal towers and destroy the signal station? Now, if we get a certain distance away from Si City, the communicator will be basically useless."
"Judging from their behavior today, it's clear they're trying to lure you into a pursuit, lure you into a trap, and then cut off your calls for help, eliminating you in one fell swoop," Lin Cheng said. "They're trying to defeat you piecemeal."
The city of Si is now tightly guarded, and the zombies are completely unable to deal with them like they did with the city of Lan. The zombie king probably thinks that these people who patrol and stand guard every day are too annoying, so he came up with this idea.
