Chapter 303: Not Far From Death
Only after they disappeared from view did Xiang Yu turn around and enter the fortress. Two robots walked forward with heavy steps and closed the fortress gate.
The sweet potatoes that had been roasted in the oven had been finished and were being kept warm on the fire tray. After Xiang Yu entered the room, he picked up a sweet potato and peeled it.
The temperature in the room was just right. After opening the vent, Xiang Yu washed up and took the bed out of the space.
After placing the bed in the corner of the room, Xiang Yu lay down on it. The environment was safe, and there were so many robots guarding him.
Looks like tonight will be a night of deep sleep.
Xiang Yu stayed in the fortress for the following days and had no plans to go out again.
Fortunately, City A releases news at a fixed time every day, and Xiang Yu will turn on the radio during that time.
Inside the fortress, there was a spacious open space surrounding her house, and Xiang Yu dug some soil from outside.
He also got some mud from the black soil in the space, mixed the two together, and sprinkled it on the open space near the house.
Considering that the location was not spacious, Xiang Yu only got four plots of farmland, and each plot of farmland was carefully divided.
Plant some corn, sweet potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, and other common crops.
Only two rows of each crop are planted. The black soil in the space is very nutritious, so just keep fertilizing them.
It probably won't take long for the results to come out.
Thinking that the weather had been very cold recently and she had nothing else to do, Xiang Yu took out the shelves she had collected from the supermarket.
After the dismantling, several longer iron plates were left, which were fixed around the four farmlands. Xiang Yu took out the waterproof membrane and fixed it on the iron plates.
The entire farmland is covered, and the temperature inside the farmland is always maintained at a suitable level.
Put the fitness equipment in the space next to the house, so that you can exercise every day. After finding something to do, you will become busy.
Although her fortress was not very big, it would still take a lot of time to clean up every area inside.
She has always done everything herself, except when she was too lazy to move, then she would direct the robots to do the work.
The biting cold wind kept blowing in the air, it was freezing cold. I remembered that I was only wearing a vest and short-sleeved shirt last month.
During this short period of time, she was wrapped in a blanket whenever she went out.
Xiang Yu installed solar panels on the top of the house, hoping to see if he could use electricity, but the result was not as he expected.
The solar panels are no longer of any use, so now after dark, she takes out candles from the space and lights them.
However, candles will eventually run out, and the most commonly used lamp is still kerosene lamp.
The match was rubbed on the cardboard and lit up with a whoosh. Xiang Yu brought the burning match close to the kerosene wick. After the wick was lit, the flame seemed to be shaking, as if it would go out at the next moment.
Xiang Yu picked up the yellowed lampshade placed aside and placed it over the wick.
Suddenly the swaying flame calmed down, and the kerosene lamp was placed on the small wooden table in the middle of the room, using the faint light.
Xiang Yu picked up the small bucket of coal and the iron tongs placed aside and added fuel to both stoves.
Once these coal mines are placed in the furnace and sealed, they can basically burn all night.
The coal consumption is not large if only two or three furnaces are burning, so she recently planted a lot of trees in the space just in case.
After the trees grew up, she ordered the robots to cut them down, and the trees were used to make charcoal.
They will also serve as a new means of heating in the future when the coal mines are used up.
Life in the fortress was ordinary and quiet, and the only contact with the outside world was through the radio.
Perhaps the black soil was too fertile, and the ordinary soil originally contained some grass seeds.
After the planted grains sprouted, the little grass seedlings hidden in the soil also sprouted.
Xiang Yu would regularly clear the grass in the farmland to prevent it from eating the nutrients in the crops.
One afternoon, when she was fertilizing the crops in the fields, she suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart.
My breathing suddenly choked and my throat felt as if I was about to die, but this moment only lasted for a few seconds.
Putting down the fertilizer tool in his hand, Xiang Yu knelt on the ground, his whole body feeling as uncomfortable as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
Xiang Yu looked pale.
He slowly stood up with his hands on the ground, stroking his lungs with his palms. He had experienced the same feeling of suffocation once before.
After experiencing it again, she felt that she was not far from death.
There was a roaring sound from the sky again, the clouds rolled violently, and the fertilizer tools on the ground were collected.
Xiang Yu returned to the house and looked at the somewhat gloomy sky outside the window, feeling a little uneasy.
The next day at noon.
Xiang Yu took out the radio and turned it on. A familiar crackling sound of electricity came from it, but Xiang Yu was already used to it.
Glancing at the time on his watch, Xiang Yu sat by the fire and waited quietly.
