Lin Tianzhen and Mao Zhihang also came over and looked Xia Mufei up and down. Is this Xiaojin's savior?
He looks like a down-to-earth young man.
The preconceived notions caused the three of them to look at Xia Mufei more and more eagerly.
"I am, you are...the ones who saved us yesterday!"
Xia Mufei recognized Lin Cheng. Not only was he one of the people who saved them yesterday, he was also the powerful earth-type mutant he saw the day before yesterday!
"Hello, seniors, I am also an earth-type mutant." Xia Mufei's cheeks turned red with excitement.
"Why call me senior? We are all from the same generation as your uncle and aunt. Just call me Uncle Lin from now on," Lin Cheng said enthusiastically.
"Yes, yes, we are really destined to meet. It seems we are assigned to the same group again." Lin Tianzhen glanced at the work ID on Xia Mufei's chest. The group on it was the same as theirs, the third group.
"Really? That's great!"
Xia Mufei didn't think about anything else. He just thought that the three people in front of him were just three enthusiastic elders. Coming here to participate in the base construction would allow him to meet so many people. His decision was absolutely right!
"Who is this?"
Mao Zhihang looked at the man behind Xia Mufei and asked, "Why does this man look at them with a somewhat unfriendly look? Is it just his illusion?"
"Oh, his name is Xia Ying. He is also here to participate in the base construction. We met him yesterday." Thinking of Xia Ying's attitude yesterday, Xia Mufei didn't have much hope that he would say hello to him.
Xia Ying really didn't say hello, Xia Mufei smiled a little embarrassedly.
Lin Cheng and the other two didn't mind. They never forgot Su Jin's instructions. As long as there was no woman around Xia Mufei, it would be fine. Although this man was a little rude, they didn't care at all.
Seeing that the three elders in front of him were not angry, Xia Mufei had a better impression of Lin Cheng and the others. Thinking that they would contribute to the base together in the future, he couldn't help but feel full of hope for the future. Even the cold Xia Ying behind him became cute in his eyes.
After the mobilization meeting, the leaders of each group took their group members to the assigned areas.
"My goodness, does the foundation need to be dug so wide?"
Lin Cheng walked along the way and saw a section of foundation that someone had dug a few days ago. It was so wide that he couldn't see the end from afar...
A man with glasses walking in front heard it, lowered his head and chuckled twice. He was the team leader of this group. Although he was just an ordinary person without any special abilities, he was still chosen as the team leader. It was because he was a first-class registered architect before the end of the world. His understanding of architecture made him stand out among many ordinary people and was appointed as a team leader.
"Have you ever heard of a proverb about city walls?" The man with glasses turned his head and asked Lin Cheng behind him.
“???”
"I'm your team leader Xiao Ziang, you can just call me Team Leader Xiao," the man with glasses introduced himself.
"I've never heard of the proverb about the city wall."
A short-haired girl next to Lin Cheng thought for a while, but still couldn't think of any proverbs about the city wall. You know, she was studying Chinese.
"Haha, haven't you heard of this saying: thicker-skinned than a city wall?" Xiao Ziang said proudly.
“…”
I have heard of it, but is it a proverb?
The people behind Xiao Ziang silently complained in their hearts, "Is this team leader really capable? I heard he's not a superpower either."
No one laughed, but Xiao Ziang chuckled to himself for a moment, as if he had told a funny joke. Then he continued walking, "I'm sure you've guessed why this saying appeared in ancient times. Ancient city walls were incredibly thick. Do you know how thick the thickest city wall in history was?"
"5 meters?" someone in the crowd guessed.
"Impossible? 5 meters is the height. How thick can a wall be? Three meters at most," someone retorted.
"I, I, I know, there is an ancient city wall in Xi'an that is 10 meters thick. I have been there!" Xia Mufei said excitedly. He and his classmates had gone there to take exams before, and they also traveled there. There are still many ancient buildings preserved there. What impressed him most was the city wall they went to. It was really 10 meters thick!
"You're right, but this is not the thickest city wall." Xiao Ziang gave Xia Mufei a thumbs up.
The crowd suddenly became noisy.
“Is there really a 10-meter-thick wall?”
"OMG"
"Is there a thicker one?" Lin Cheng was even more surprised when he heard the team leader say that 10 meters was not the thickest wall.
"The thickest city wall in the capital is 15 meters thick!" Xiao Ziang felt proud from the bottom of his heart. China's ancient civilization is really excellent.
!!!
The crowd exclaimed in admiration again, and even members of other groups started discussing it after hearing it.
"15 meters... that's enough for five or six sports cars to be parked side by side, right?!" a man exclaimed.
"Of course, don't even mention five or six, even eight will do."
…
"So starting today, the foundation you'll be digging has been calculated by many engineers and architects based on existing conditions," Xiao Ziang continued. "The walls of the base we're going to build will be 18 meters thick!"
!!!
! !
18 meters?
What concept?!
Are they going to rewrite history?
"My goodness, this is not building a city wall, this is simply building a mountain," said a middle-aged man.
"Don't worry, considering the load-bearing capacity and how to make the city wall as solid as possible, the thickness of the upper part of the wall will be reduced, but the 18 meters at the bottom is necessary!" Xiao Ziang waited until everyone was surprised before continuing to explain that if the thickness was unified, the effect would not be so good.
After everyone was amazed, all that was left in their hearts was a full sense of pride.
They want to build the strongest city wall in history!
Family, lovers, and friends within the city walls will be given the safest protection!
They won't let any zombies destroy the city wall!
Lin Tianzhen and Mao Zhihang also looked at each other, and Mao Zhihang held Lin Tianzhen's hand tightly. They also wanted to work harder.
At this time, Xiao Ziang had already brought his team members to their work place. He commanded the psychics from various departments in an orderly manner. His clear instructions were not dragged out at all, and even his tone did not make the team members who were psychics feel uncomfortable.
No one dared to look down on him anymore, and the ordinary people in the team were full of confidence. Although they did not have special abilities, they would not lose to others!
Lin Cheng sighed in his heart, it's true that everyone has their own expertise. Next, he will also use his expertise. However, the foundation is only 18 meters wide, so just leave it to those earth-type mutants!
In ancient times, city walls were built brick by brick by slaves and prisoners of war with their bare hands. They have so many people with special abilities, and they have a few excavators over there. Wouldn't it be much easier for them to build walls than for the ancients?
So, several earth-type ability users confidently stood in a row according to Xiao Ziang's instructions, and began to release their earth-type abilities towards the place where the instruction flags had been placed in front of them.
