Tu Qingyu: "That's not right. What about the food?"
With so many people, does everyone have enough food?
Yan Yu: "Didn't a lot of people die when we were fighting the mutant ants? There were several cars full of food.
Later, when we passed that small zombie wave, some people died again. Another time, there was a group of wild boars, but no mutated wild boars.
If we kill all these wild boars, won’t we get meat?
Brother Heng has collected all the food. If you have food at home, you can eat it. If you don’t have food at home, you can come to Brother Heng to get some.”
Tu Qingyu: "Then those who have food will also agree?"
Yan Yu: "Of course they refused. At the beginning, someone hid their own food and ran to Brother Heng to get it. Brother Heng saw through it immediately. In the end, it was Brother Heng who said that if this happened twice, he would drive them away. Only then did they stop."
"Brother Heng also said that those who receive food won't be able to keep it for long. They have to find ways to survive on their own. Either kill zombies and get zombie cores in exchange, or find wild game themselves. In short, they can't always rely on others to distribute food."
In fact, at first they were unwilling to eat wild boar meat and wild vegetables and mushrooms from the mountains, and Bo Heng let them eat them or not.
Later, someone was so hungry that he asked Bo Heng for some meat.
After the first person eats it and doesn't turn into a zombie, the experienced people will go to find wild vegetables within a safe range.
Tu Qingyu already understood the general situation. She stood up and stretched a bit, then walked out of the tent with the strong man.
They were now in an open space outside a forest, or more precisely, a riverbed.
Because there is a river that is about to dry up in front of the open space.
There were groups of people in the open space. They gathered together. Some of them set up pots, and those who didn't have pots made fire and grilled meat.
Some people were collecting firewood not far away, while others were building stoves with stones.
After this period of escape, their expressions were more or less dazed.
But it’s okay, their faces are not sallow and no one has become emaciated by hunger in just a few days.
She took two steps forward, staring at the river, "No one drinks this water, right?"
"No, no, Brother Bo said it from the beginning. We don't know what's in the upper reaches of the river. It's different from wild vegetables, and the water can't be drunk."
"That's good."
Tu Qingyu: "Dabao, tell me, how did Bo Heng know that river water is undrinkable? How could a person be so smart?"
Dabao: "Master, when he passed by a river before, he saw a zombie soaking in the water."
Tu Qingyu: "I see."
She turned to Yanyu and asked, "What about their water?"
Yan Yu: "When we were escaping, some people brought water with them. Later, when everyone's water was almost used up, we passed by a village that actually had a well.
Brother Heng caught several mice to test it, and after confirming that the well was fine, he had it installed."
"So far, as long as we use water sparingly, no one should be short of water, right?"
At this time, Wan Chang, one of Bo Heng's men, came running over and said, "Sister Tu, Brother Yu, the meal is ready. Let's go and have lunch."
He pointed to a big pot not far from the tent. A dozen young men were gathered in front of the pot. They were Bo Heng and his men.
She nodded. "Okay."
As soon as she got closer, Bo Heng handed her a bowl, which contained a bowl of thick white porridge.
"You just woke up. Have some porridge and a bowl of egg custard. If you can still eat, you can have some beef."
Tu Qingyu took the porridge and curled her lips. "I don't really like eating something too bland."
Bo Heng paused, "I'm sorry, but I think..."
"But it doesn't matter." Before he finished speaking, Tu Qingyu looked up at him, "The porridge my brother gave me is sweet, I am happy to drink it."
Of course, she didn't dislike the things, she just wanted to tease Bo Heng.
Being able to cook a bowl of porridge and egg custard so quickly in the apocalypse is already very good and thoughtful.
Her sweet look was completely different from the murderous look she had that day.
When Bo Heng's men heard him call them brother, they felt their teeth ache.
"You..." Bo Heng didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long while, he managed to utter two words, "Eat quickly."
"Okay brother, you should eat quickly too, brother."
Jiaojiao next to them was eating canned cat food, and Mengnan was gnawing on fresh bamboo shoots.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "No, where did these bamboo shoots come from, Big Brother?"
He didn't remember what bamboo forest they passed through?
Before, the eldest brother always ate with them, so why did Miss Tu start to improve the food as soon as she woke up?
Bo Heng also saw the bamboo shoots in the macho man's hand, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
"I'm going to eat you, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"No, Boss..."
"I put it there before." Seeing that Tu Qingyu was concentrating on drinking the porridge and didn't seem to want to explain, Bo Heng took the initiative to explain.
The little girl is also very open-minded and is not afraid of being suspected.
The young man nodded, "I see."
It seems that the boss wants to perform well in front of Sister Tu.
Only after Sister Tu wakes up will she improve the eldest brother’s food.
He knew that the boss treated Sister Tu differently.
After finishing their meal, just as they were packing up to set off again, a scream suddenly came from the crowd not far away.
Several young men stood up and said, "Boss, something seems to have happened up ahead."
"ah--!"
"Zombies! It's a zombie, he's going to turn into a zombie, kill him quickly!"
"Nonsense, what zombie! He's not a zombie, don't talk nonsense! He's not a zombie!"
A sharp female voice sounded. Tu Qingyu looked over there and indeed saw a bit of evil in the crowd.
Several people walked towards where the noise was happening.
I saw a woman in her thirties or forties wearing a yellow long-sleeved shirt holding the child tightly in her arms.
She kept muttering, "He's not a zombie... How could this happen? It's impossible. This is impossible. The water is so clear, he can't turn into a zombie!"
Those people surrounded her, looking on guard and ready to escape at any time.
"His nails have turned black, and he still says he's not him."
"Yes, and his eyes. I say you should let him go quickly, or you will get bitten too."
"That's right. We can still hold down this small zombie. But you're so big, and you turned into a zombie and harmed us again. Aren't you a heartless person?"
"Kill him, kill him."
"Yeah, kill him, he's already a zombie."
"Kill him! Kill him!"
…
"No, no, no, he's not. He's still so young. He's my son, he's a human being. How could you kill him..."
She held the child tightly in her arms, insisting that no one touch him.
"If you really can't bear to leave, then just die with your son." Someone in the crowd suddenly said this.
