After tossing and turning for half the night, it finally quieted down. I felt uneasy in my heart. After the loss I suffered last time, I thought I should take the initiative to investigate the matter to avoid further trouble. I made a decision secretly in my heart.

Later I took a light sleep for a while, and when I woke up the next day, I didn’t sleep well.

When it was daytime, Song Yingchun saw the sun rising, and hurriedly sat up and said to everyone: "Did you hear it? The sound last night was very loud, like a hanged ghost banging his feet against the bedpost, or like someone repeating the suicide action, banging his head against the wall. It was so scary!"

"Sister Yingchun, didn't you say that you don't believe in these things? You don't believe in superstitions, feudal dregs, etc., right?" I asked.

Song Yingchun was speechless for a moment, and after a long while she said, "I didn't say it was definitely a ghost, but at least there was a noise, and it kept people awake, so it must be correct, right?"

The girls got up one after another, and I got out of bed too. Seeing that I had something to say, they all stayed in the room. I saw that their eyes were dark and sleepy, and I guess they didn't sleep well last night.

"Listen to me, everyone. I also heard the noise. I will investigate this matter. It might be some wild animals, such as pigeons, that ran into the upstairs room. So before the facts are confirmed, don't scare yourself and lose your composure. Let me arrange today's tasks. Yunwen and Bailu, you will be responsible for making breakfast. In the afternoon, you will collect some firewood and put away all the dried quilts and clothes. Yingchun, I'll trouble you to find a way to make some chopsticks, earthen bowls, earthen jars, and earthen basins today. If you have extra time, you can make some wicker baskets, baskets, and the like." I said.

"Brother Zhou Bo, what about you?" Bai Lu asked.

"I'm mainly going to collect some wild fruits. Canned food is not nutritious enough. It's the height of summer now, so we have to eat more fruits and vegetables according to the season. Also, my main task is to investigate what is disturbing our sleep," I said.

The girls nodded in agreement.

After saying this, as soon as we opened the dormitory door, we all exclaimed!

"Who turned on the light?" I was a little angry!

"No one turned it on. Did you forget to turn it off last night? Don't push the blame on others when something happens, okay? Is there anyone like you?" Yingchun complained.

"No, I remember it very clearly. Zhou Bo did turn off the corridor lights last night." Yunwen said.

The girls looked at each other, and I was a little puzzled, so I said, "This electricity is precious. Once it's used up, it's gone. After all, we don't know how to generate electricity ourselves. Let's save it. Even if you're scared, don't turn on the lights randomly."

I looked around and saw that all the lights in the building were on. I didn't know who was so fierce.

Then I went to turn off all the lights, but when I touched the switch, I felt mud stuck on it. I smelled it and the mud smell should be left over from last night.

After we went out, we each got busy with our own things. It would take a long time to prepare the meal, so I set out first to collect wild fruits and vegetables. Just as I was about to leave, I took a look at the main electrical box. The wires of the main electrical box extended towards the underground entrance, and part of the cables were buried. I saw a closed switch next to the main switch, so out of curiosity I opened it.

I have sharp ears and immediately heard some thumping sounds coming from the underground entrance, so I went to see.

This underground entrance looked like an air-raid shelter. I moved the cover and saw that the lights were on below. I could see many things that I had not seen before. There was indeed a factory below, with criss-crossing iron racks and suspended roads made of iron sheets. There were many iron smelting furnaces and manufacturing machines deep below. Then I looked not far away and was stunned. There was a huge inverted barrel with many wires plugged in.

I know what this thing is without even reading the instructions, nuclear power equipment!

No wonder the electricity is so durable!

Then I thought, are those huge piranhas affected by the nuclear radiation? It's only been built for a year or two, but it has changed their genes and mutated. Has the nuclear energy also changed the size of the moths? After all, when I saw them, they seemed to be bigger than the description in the fragments left by the Dragon Hunting Camp, and there was also the roc-like creature...

The thought was terrifying, so I quickly closed the cover leading to the underground and pulled the switch next to the main power switch, and all the lights below went out.

"It's not advisable to stay here for long. The nuclear equipment will make us sick. We can't stay here for even a month. I'll definitely ask to move out when the time is right." I said to myself.

Then I carried my backpack up the mountain and picked some wild mushrooms, wild fruits, and wild grass roots. I made enough marks along the way to avoid getting lost on the way back. On this isolated peak, the trees are lush and there are many wild flowers and grasses. It is much better than the Bigfoot Peak opposite, and the resources are also sufficient, perhaps because the sunshine is better.

Where there are flowers, there are naturally wild bees, butterflies and other creatures, which are pleasing to the eye. I also think of finding a beehive one day and getting some honey to drink.

Along the way, I also paid special attention to the ground. There were basically no footprints of other wild animals, only some small footprints of squirrels and birds. The only larger ones were the footprints arranged like plum blossoms, which should be those of a fox.

Of course, I also know that the more beautiful a place is, the more hidden dangers it has. The danger is not below but in the trees above. Just by listening to the sound, I can hear that there are some poisonous snakes hiding behind the trees, so I just try to avoid them.

We collected a lot of food, and some of the peach trees still had flowers and branches left, which we cut and brought back to improve the smell in the house.

After putting these into the backpack, my stomach was empty, so I hurried back to have breakfast. But as soon as I got back to the vicinity of this broken helicopter, I saw a strange scene. I saw Yunwen was outside the iron fence, feeding the fox some fish meat with fish bones left over from yesterday.

It was a red fox, the same one I saw chewing the electric wire before. I was afraid that the fox would bite Yunwen, but I didn't expect that after chewing it twice, it squatted on the ground and let Yunwen stroke it. Yunwen gently stroked its fur, and it squinted its eyes, enjoying it very much.

But after a while, it seemed to smell my scent, bared its teeth at me vigilantly, and then ran into the bushes and disappeared.

"Are you back?" Yunwen stood up immediately when she saw me and asked with a smile.

"Well. Well, stay away from those beasts. They are cunning by nature. After eating your fish once, they will come to steal food every day. They will also come to bother you every day, and there is a high probability that they will attack you." I reminded.

"Okay..." Yunwen's answer was a bit far-fetched.

Then I gave her the peach blossom, and her complexion looked better. We went to have breakfast together. Unexpectedly, the dried wheat could be made into a lunch box of grass noodle soup. Yingchun had already taken out the chopsticks, and everyone took a few sips. Bailu said that if it was not enough, we could continue to knead the dough and cut it into noodles and cook more.

Noodles with mixed vegetables are quite filling, and with cereals as the main meal, it is easy to feel full.

After the meal, we rinsed our mouths with tea, and then they went to do what I had arranged in the morning. Yingchun continued to prepare some earthen basins, dustpans and the like, while Yunwen and Bailu worked together to pack up the dried items.

I went back to the earthen tower, turned on the lights in the corridor upstairs, went up to the second floor, which was also the highest floor of the earthen tower, and arrived at the room on the second floor directly above us, holding a bayonet in my hand to prevent any wild animals from hiding there and attacking me.

I came to the door of the room on the second floor. There was a door hole. I looked inside. There was sunlight now, and the room was well lit. I could see everything clearly. However, there were no birds living there, nor were there any wild animals as I expected, such as wild monkeys.

At this moment, through the hole in the door, I saw a scene that made my scalp tingle with shock!
