Chapter 260 A Bit Greasy
The soldier's words cleared his mind, and he cautiously climbed up from the earthen kang. But the moment he got up, Su Cheng held him down: "Lie down and recuperate! We have already resolved the matter of Liwa Village. Now you just need to take good care of your injuries and return to the army when you are healed."
"Duan Boyu! My name is Duan Boyu!" The soldier saw that it was Su Cheng and lay down with relief. This made Su Cheng feel a little complicated: "Aren't you afraid that I'm also a biped?"
"You're not! We can all tell the difference between bipeds and ordinary people!" Duan Boyu said confidently, "Your faith is still there."
Su Cheng fell silent. "But I resigned before the apocalypse broke out. Don't call me Officer Su anymore. There's no Officer Su here. I'm older than you, so just call me Brother Su Cheng."
"Brother Su Cheng, thank you so much, Brother Su Cheng and your friends, for saving my life." Everyone gathered around, their faces filled with worry. Duan Boyu was grateful for their help and then asked about the situation in Liwa Village. Su Cheng had just said that the problem in Liwa Village had been resolved. Su Cheng and the others told Duan Boyu about it.
Duan Boyu learned that Lu Xingtang and others were pretending to be in a disaster. When the people of Liwa Village sent them to the cellar, he woke up and killed all the two-legged beasts in Liwa Village. Later, he killed all the two-legged beasts in Liwa Village. Now there are only a few children and women left. If it weren't for the children needing their mothers to feed them, those women would have died too.
When Duan Boyu heard that they had guns and were basically all doctors, the strange feeling in his heart disappeared.
Knowing that the children were very young, he couldn't bear to kill them, so he said, "Aren't you going to the Imperial Capital on this trip? The official base in the Imperial Capital has set up an orphanage and adopts babies from all over the country. These children are the hope of our H Country. The official intention is to cultivate them!"
When Lu Xingtang heard this, he thought of Xie Zhenchuan, who was adopted and raised by GJ.
"Are there many institutions like this in our country H?" Lu Xingtang asked.
Duan Boyu said, "Currently, only the official base in the Imperial Capital has established an orphanage! But the official base has already dispatched personnel to search for orphaned children across the country. As long as they are not bipeds and are underage, the GJ will raise them and focus on training them. No matter how far away they are, they will eventually be sent to the Imperial Capital Orphanage. However, I also heard that the GJ will soon allow all orphaned children in the base to be trained in the Imperial Capital Orphanage!"
In other words, if Xie Zhenchuan was really born, he would eventually be sent to the Imperial Capital Orphanage, and she would just have to wait for him there.
Su Cheng said, "Does this mean that the government encourages having children?"
Duan Boyu said, "Because of the apocalypse, according to incomplete statistics, our H Country has lost at least 1 billion people! For the sake of development and the future, the government will definitely encourage everyone to have children! With children, our H Country has hope! What if one day the apocalypse ends and H Country has no manpower left? How can we talk about recovery and reconstruction? How can we go back to the past?"
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo fell silent after hearing this, especially Lu Xingtang, whose gaze silently shifted to several couples in their class who were married but had no children. They were all doctors and would find a way to solve the problem of contraception.
Now they already know the existence of space. Space serves as a shelter for everyone. They don't have to worry about accidents or not being able to raise children. When they arrive in Lancheng and build their own base, they will have space again. Moreover, she has stockpiled a lot of milk powder, so they can have children then.
She?d like to have a child after the apocalypse, but if the child comes, she won't refuse it.
After Duan Boyu woke up, Lu Xingtang didn't need to remind everyone to take care of him. Duan Boyu's eyes reddened when he saw his comrades' clothes, but he didn't cry. He only sobbed secretly when he slept at night. Lu Xingtang and the others were quiet and didn't disturb him.
When Duan Boyu felt better, Lu Xingtang noticed that the temperature was actually dropping. He frowned tightly and asked, "Could it be that the weather is going to change?"
Ji Yanmo held Lu Xingtang's hand tightly, "As long as we are together, what does it matter if the world changes?"
Su Cheng and others turned around silently and did not stand with the two of them. As they were old, it seemed a bit greasy for Ji Yanmo to say such things.
Lu Xingtang didn't feel greasy, but only felt warm.
The next day, the weather turned very cold. Standing in front of the farmhouse window, one could see yellow sand filling the sky. The dust seemed to be angry, and the dust on the ground was swept up and raged wildly in the air. When Lu Xingtang opened the door to go to the bathroom, the wind rushed against the door and almost made it impossible to open.
As soon as I opened the door, I got a mouthful of sand. I quickly took out a mask from the space and put it on, but the sand still got into my eyes and I couldn't open them at all. All I could hear were the sounds of ghosts howling.
There was a woodshed next to the farmhouse. The woodshed was made of iron sheets and has been blown away by the strong wind.
The arrival of the sandstorm made the house dirty and yellow. Everyone had to wear a mask when going out. Without a mask, they would be choked and cough continuously, and their mouths would only taste like dirt.
Lu Xingtang didn't dare to use the masks he had stockpiled, so he found a piece of clothing and asked everyone to make their own masks to prevent sand and dust from entering their mouths.
Later, the wind of the sandstorm became stronger and stronger, and the firewood piled on the ground or the trash cans on the ground would be blown up and dance wildly in the air.
Seeing this, Lu Xingtang immediately told everyone to stay indoors and wait until the sandstorm passed. If the bathroom couldn't be used, they could find a few toilets, separate for men and women.
"Wa wa..." Hearing the baby crying, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo walked into another room against the yellow sand. They saw the woman holding the baby and trying to coax him, but no matter how she did, the baby couldn't stop crying. Lu Xingtang walked over and put his finger in the baby's mouth. The baby immediately looked for his finger, which meant he was hungry!
"Why don't you feed your baby?"
"We... have no milk anymore." The women said guiltily.
Lu Xingtang stared at them for a long time before saying, "If that's the case, then you can go to hell!"
Death? Hearing this word, the women were terrified. "No, we don't want to die. We also want to raise the child well, but the child's appetite is getting better and better. We really have no milk to feed him. Please don't kill us."
Lu Xingtang took out a gun from his pocket and said, "I have seen through your little tricks.
Aren't you just trying to use the child to get more supplies from me so you can escape? I hate bipeds the most! If it weren't for the child's innocence, you would have died long ago!"
No milk? Why no milk? Did she really think she didn't know? Ji Yanmo told her everything.
In order to survive and not want the burden of children, they discussed every day how to escape from her clutches, but they failed to come up with a suitable solution. Seeing the children growing plump and carefree because of their abundant milk, they became very angry and drank each other's milk, leaving the children with nothing to eat.
