Chapter 14 Chapter 14
In this way, the wall between Qin Wei's room and the living room was knocked down to make a 1.8-meter-wide passage. The edges were cleaned and then painted with a layer of white. Ye Xun did not throw away the bricks that were knocked down, but made an earthen stove. He looked up information and Qin Wei started working.
Ye Xun put the original things in the room in the storage room under the pretext of throwing them into the space, intending to dispose of them when he went out.
Now, he and Qin Wei are the only ones sleeping in his room. He was a little unhappy at first, after all, he is also a gay and he has to pay attention to the distance between men.
But seeing that Qin Wei was really a straight man, I gradually felt relieved.
Every day Ye Xun would take three hours to exercise, and would drag Wang Yu along. When he was lifting weights, Wang Yu would go to run on the treadmill, and the two would alternate, occasionally grabbing Qin Wei to teach them some life-saving tricks. Now their physical fitness and strength have increased a lot.
Ye Xun pulled his clothes up and looked at the lines of his waist and abdomen in the mirror. Visually, he looked a lot thinner, his skin was tight, and even his waistline was visible.
Ye Xun was just conceited when Qin Wei came out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist and bare-chested. Ye Xun's eyes unconsciously lingered on his shoulders, chest, waist and abdomen. How could someone have such perfect shark muscles and abdominal muscles at the same time?
Ye Xun was a little jealous. When he was feeling proud of his abs, someone else's pectoral muscles were already enough to crush him.
He snorted coldly, picked up his clean clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower. When the two passed each other, he pretended to be careless and bumped the other with his shoulder.
Qin Wei touched the place where he was bumped, and the corners of his mouth rose inexplicably. He always wanted to tease Ye Xun, and his temper was like that of a child.
Strength too.
After taking a shower, Ye Xun applied lotion on his face. Unlike straight men, the way he took care of himself was limited to applying lotion and facial cream.
When I came out of the bathroom, Qin Wei was already lying on the bed. Fortunately, I bought a two-meter-long bed for comfort, so two grown men didn't feel crowded.
Bal was thrown into Wang Yu's room. She was a girl, and keeping a vicious dog by her side could protect her if something really happened.
In the second half of the night, Ye Xun consciously followed the source of heat in his dream and rolled directly into Qin Wei's arms.
Qin Wei was probably sleeping soundly and was not woken up. He even hugged him in his arms, and the two of them slept inseparable.
Ye Xun woke up once in the early morning and found himself in someone's arms. His face turned red and warm instantly. He quickly climbed out quietly and went back to his own bed to sleep.
On the 25th day of the flood, the water was about to reach the eighth floor and the drainage system had completely broken down.
The rain recorded by Ye Xun lasted for 35 days before it slowly receded. Just when people thought the disaster was over, extreme heat came and the temperature rose rapidly, reaching 65 degrees in less than half a month.
When the temperature rises, the air conditioner and generator will be under greater pressure, so he plans to modify the living room.
There are a lot of synthetic panels in the space, which can divide the living room into several spaces. You can go inside in extremely hot or cold weather, and sleep in the bedroom in normal weather.
Ye Xun drew a rough design for the living room and was ready to start work.
It is relatively simple to fix the synthetic board. It can be cut according to the height and width of the living room, but it requires one person supporting another to operate it.
Qin Wei helped and Ye Xun used an electric drill to fix it. Wang Yu was designing the door, which was also made of synthetic board and used a clip as a door lock.
After the installation was completed, the living room was divided into three areas: the rooms of Wang Yu, Ye Xun and Qin Wei. The planting area was by the window, and a 50cm aisle was left on the outside.
The three of them spent a day decorating the living room.
Due to limited space, both rooms only had a mattress, a table, and a clothesline.
The coffee table was moved to the planting room, where people would eat from then on, and an earthen stove was also built there.
Ye Xun optimized the planting room, dividing it into two floors. With more space, there is more place to grow vegetables.
But now there is not enough soil. He can dig it out from the space, but he can't explain it to Qin Wei. It is outrageous to take out these construction equipment casually. If there is even soil, it will arouse suspicion.
So he consulted with Qin Wei, and the two of them went out to dig and see if they could find some supplies.
Qin Wei would not refuse the employer's request, as this was his job.
Ye Xun contacted Xu Feng who lived downstairs. He added his contact information after asking him to buy things for him last time. He asked Xu Feng if he was willing to rent the kayak to them for the price of 2 kilograms of rice or four packs of instant noodles a day.
To be honest, fewer people go out to look for things now, and the kayak is useless at home. After Ye Xun talked to him about this, he agreed directly. However, he asked to exchange the rent for milk powder. He has a 7-month-old son, and the milk powder at home ran out on the seventh day of rain. His wife's milk supply is insufficient, and now he basically feeds his son with muddled milk, which does not have much nutrition.
Ye Xun has plenty of milk powder in his space. A can of milk powder is nothing to him, but it is a life-saving thing for other families.
He replied that he needed to think about it for a while.
Since there is no clear rejection, there is hope. Xu Feng was very excited and waited anxiously for news at home.
Half an hour later, Ye Xun agreed, but he had a condition.
Not to mention one, three Xu Fengs also agreed, "Brother, you say, I will definitely do it."
"If anyone asks what I gave you, just say it was just plain rice and meat. I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble."
There are many families with children in the building. If everyone comes to see him, wouldn't it be annoying?
Xu Feng understood and promised that he would not tell anyone.
Only then did Ye Xun agree.
The two parties agreed to conduct the transaction on the eighth floor the next morning.
The task of searching for supplies outside was assigned to Ye Xun and Qin Wei, Wang Yu stayed at home, and Bal was kept as her bodyguard. These two grown men had weapons for self-defense.
Before leaving, Bal hummed at the door, wanting to catch up, but he didn't dare to move without his master's order.
Ye Xun stopped it, "Don't come over."
Bal sat still.
"Dad is out hunting. You stay home and protect your aunt. Do you understand?"
Bal lay down and said that he would be obedient. Only then did Ye Xun feel at ease to set off.
Ye Xun and his companion were carrying waterproof mountaineering bags, wearing raincoats and rain pants, and had a Tang sword hanging around their waists.
When they reached the eighth floor, Xu Feng had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the two fully armed men, he greeted them enthusiastically.
"Brother! Did you bring the stuff?"
Ye Xun opened the mountaineering bag behind him and took out something wrapped in a black plastic bag.
Xu Feng looked around, made sure no one was watching, and quickly packed his things into the backpack he brought with him.
After getting the things, I felt relieved and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother. I have already inflated the kayak and put it in the water. You and this brother can use it directly."
Through the window on the eighth floor, you can see a kayak floating on the water. After being docked for a while, a lot of water has accumulated in it.
After Ye Xun and Qin Wei went up, they scooped out the water immediately. Qin Wei was responsible for rowing and Ye Xun was responsible for scooping water.
Five kilometers away from the community, there is a park built on a small hill. Because the terrain is high and not completely submerged, the two set that place as their destination.
They didn't meet anyone along the way. Only occasionally they saw a few soldiers rowing a boat. There were several boxes piled on the boat. Ye Xun guessed that they were loaded with supplies.
In addition to some garbage, there were also swollen dead bodies in the water.
Apart from what he had dreamed about, this was the first time he had such close contact with a corpse.
Looking at the rotten human face, Ye Xun felt a little uncomfortable.
He tugged at Qin Wei's sleeve and motioned for him to look.
Qin Wei stopped rowing and looked in the direction he was pointing. There was a dead body.
Looking at Ye Xun's face which had turned pale with fear, "I guess a lot of people died in this flood. I don't know how many bodies are soaked in the water. We must disinfect carefully when we return to avoid bringing back any bacteria or viruses."
Ye Xun understood that what he said made sense. There would be a plague after the flood. He hoped that the government could discover it and take action. He had a lot of disinfectants in his space, so he was not worried about his own home.
On the way to the park, we encountered other corpses one after another. As Qin Wei said, there were indeed quite a few.
At this moment, Ye Xun faced the horror of natural disasters.
After arriving at the park, Ye Xun tied the kayak to a tree and took Qin Wei up the mountain.
Walk to a relatively open area and start digging.
The soil that had been soaked by rain for a long time was very easy to dig. The moist soil was soft, and I shoveled out several sacks in less than half an hour.
Ye Xun regretted that the kayaks were too small, otherwise he could have brought more back.
After loading the soil, Ye Xun planned to go to the shopping mall to see if he could find some bargains if it was not flooded.
They are located in the east of the city. There are many shopping malls in the east, but most of them are low-lying and were flooded early on. Only the shopping mall that was still attracting investors last year was located relatively high and only the first floor was flooded.
By the time the kayaks arrived, it was already dark, which was convenient for them to move.
The first floor mainly consists of clothing and luxury goods, which Ye Xun doesn’t care about since he has no use for them.
His target was the kitchens of the restaurants on the fourth floor and some snack shops.
Because no one had maintained it for a long time, the entire shopping mall had been without power for some time. There was no surveillance, so Ye Xun took out a mini electric saw and a crowbar from his backpack, and worked together with Qin Wei to pry open the door of the shopping mall.
They kayaked close to the stairs, and after coming down, they headed straight to the fourth floor and began to sweep.
