Dabao descended like a divine weapon, bringing with him a dazzling light.
"Dabao! Oh, it's really Dabao!" Qiao Songzhi was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He quickly opened his backpack, took out a pack of biscuits and opened it to feed it. Unexpectedly, Dabao didn't eat it, but turned his head to peck at the wild grass seedlings that had just grown on the ground.
"I didn't expect Dabao was still alive. I thought it had been caught, plucked and stewed!" Shao's mother was so happy that the sick look on her face disappeared by 70% to 80%.
Everyone expressed their warm welcome to Dabao's reappearance. These days, the reunion of family members and good friends is a great joy. Even if Dabao is the reserve food, it is a joy to be able to reunite after a disaster.
"It shouldn't be hungry, its belly is full." Qiao Songzhi tried to test it, and when she saw that Dabao didn't peck at her, she touched its belly. Qiao Songzhi, who had rich breeding experience, said this, and Shao's mother breathed a sigh of relief. When Qiao Songzhi picked up Dabao and brought him close to her, she reached out and touched its smooth feathers, and said with emotion: "Dabao still recognized us, did it come to find us?"
"Dabao is smart, he must have come to find us!" Shao's father said happily.
Qiao Qingqing also touched it twice. It was obvious that this intelligent hen not only escaped the disaster, but also survived the survivors. She not only saved her life, but also took good care of herself. Not only did she not lose weight, but she also gained a lot of weight. She took out a bag of chicken feed from the space, and Dabao stopped pecking at the grass roots on the ground. He excitedly flapped his wings and ran towards the feed, eating it in big mouthfuls.
After eating the feed, Qiao Qingqing put it away, and it followed them and did not leave. Sometimes it fell behind by eating grass stems on the roadside, and would fly over to catch up. Shao Shengfei would breathe a sigh of relief: "I thought Dabao ran away again."
Shao Shengan said: "It doesn't matter if it runs away. We won't eat it anyway. If it wants to follow us, it can follow us. If it doesn't want to follow us, there's nothing we can do." They couldn't bear to eat such a spiritual big hen.
At noon, the family stopped to rest and have lunch. After carrying Shao's mother all morning, Shao Shengfei was still in good spirits. After carefully putting Shao's mother down, he went to play with Dabao while chewing a bun. Shao Sheng'an and Shao's father had some fat on their faces because of the good food they had eaten these days. Shao's mother could also eat some meat properly. They gathered around a small table and had lunch in the sun. In this hot and humid weather, Qiao Qingqing wanted to eat some spicy food and sweat a little to feel comfortable. She asked everyone's opinions and had Mapo Tofu Rice and big steamed buns for lunch. Shao's mother couldn't eat spicy food, so she had lean meat porridge.
Mix the fresh and spicy tofu with the white rice, and take a big spoonful. The taste is so refreshing. Qiao Qingqing was sweating profusely while eating, and she was very satisfied. In order to protect her stomach, she didn't dare to give everyone cold drinks, so she took out the mung bean soup that she had cooked before. The warm mung bean soup became more and more fragrant. She drank the mung bean soup in one gulp. Even though the sun was scorching, she still felt comfortable.
After lunch and a one-hour break, Shao Shengan used a telescope to check the surroundings and found Liu Zhen and others who had fallen behind. He understood and told Qiao Qingqing about it.
"It would be great if they could come together. After all, there is almost no water in that place." Qiao Qingqing also had some concerns and told Shao Shengan her vague guesses, "The earthquake caused the plate to move. I am not afraid of only the sea in Pingshan Community. Although our family can live well on our own, if the overall environment is bad, we can't stay out of it."
Shao Shengan seemed to be thinking: "You are worried that the ground will be cut into more pieces... The worst case scenario is that we are now on an isolated island, and Yeshan's military force cannot take care of us. At that time, there will be no control and order, and some forces or groups will occupy the mountain and become kings, and human disasters will follow. Liu Zhen and Song Sanhe are very good people. It would be even better if they could be neighbors, so that our family can have a companion."
They have a small family, and Liu Zhen's group is not large in number, but at least there is a shallow friendship between them, which is better than being strangers, and they can still help each other whenever they meet.
He exhaled: "Let's take it one step at a time. We are not easy to bully."
"Um."
The family walked slowly, resting as they walked. Later, Liu Zhen and others caught up and greeted each other.
"You, this is too much." Liu Zhen looked at their equipment in amazement.
The reason was simple. After not seeing each other for a while, Qiao Qingqing's family had upgraded their belongings to a tricycle. The tricycle was also full of luggage, and pots and pans were hanging outside. Liu Zhen also saw something that looked like a generator, and everything was covered with a thick layer of mud.
Shao Shengan smiled and said, "Some of them were hidden by my family before. We dug them out after the family reunion. It's a pity that they were soaked in water. We have to clean the mud and dry them in the sun later. Some of them were picked up."
Liu Zhen stuttered: "Yes, we need to dry it in the sun." He turned around and told his third brother that Shao Shengan and his friends were very lucky to be able to find and dig up the things they had buried.
The third brother seemed to be thinking about something. He did not completely believe what Shao Shengan said. It was true that the things were dug out, but they were not necessarily theirs...
"I'm lucky."
Qiao Qingqing didn't care what he thought. It was just a statement. When the family settled down, daily necessities would be indispensable, and they would definitely have to find a reason to take things out and use them.
Two days later, everyone arrived at the original Pingshan community, and just as they approached the beach, they encountered a convoy.
After the earthquake, it was rare to see a complete car, let alone a convoy of more than 20 cars. The momentum was quite amazing.
The convoy continued to circle the sea, and later seemed to stop and camp in the distance.
"I don't know how they managed to preserve so many cars." Qiao Songzhi sighed.
Qiao Qingqing said: "It is also possible that the convoy does not belong to one force, but is a combination of multiple forces."
"There are quite a lot of people. There are people on the roof of the car—"
Qiao Qingqing and her family found a small hill with higher terrain to set up camp, and Liu Zhen and his group were not far away from them.
"There are not many of them, only ten! Aunt Wang is not here." Shao Shengfei took a stroll there while looking for wood and stones, and came back to say. The third brother said that Aunt Wang was waiting for her daughter there. Although he was reluctant to leave Aunt Wang, he would be happy if Aunt Wang could wait for her daughter, just like he waited for his father, mother and brother.
"Someone should choose not to come here. After all, it sounds like a dream if there is a sea here." Shao Shengan called Shao Shengfei, "Brother, come and help me suppress this place."
"Here I come!"
Qiao Qingqing's family decided to make this camp more comfortable, so it took a lot of effort. Not only did they have to build two sleeping tents, but they also had to build a sunshade and a duck shed. The sunshade was for their living and was surrounded by sunshade cloth on three sides, so that they had privacy and fresh air, and they didn't have to stay in the tent all day.
The duck shed will be used to raise ducks in the future. There is also a piece of land next to it that Shao's father had set his eyes on a long time ago. He is ready to start plowing the soil as soon as the camp is set up.
In fact, Qiao Qingqing knew in her heart that the natural disaster might not be over yet. Now, she might end up with nothing if she kept doing business, but she couldn't live like that. If she was afraid of this and that and did nothing, she would be useless. She should find some work to do, so that she could have some hope in life. If... if she really died in the natural disaster, she would have the joy of a good harvest when she looked back on her life over the years, without the regret of wasting time.
Just when he was halfway there, two motorcycles came from the direction of the convoy, circled around, turned back, and came back again. Being circled back and forth by the two motorcycles, Shao Shengan put down his work and sat beside them to watch. He looked diagonally behind him and saw his third brother standing beside him, also standing on a stone with a similar defensive look, and his companions were busy packing their luggage beside him.
Fortunately, the matter became clear soon after. It turned out that there were some people following the convoy on foot from a distance, and the motorcycles were turning back and forth to lead the way and patrol.
“There are so many people.”
Looking at the long group of people walking towards the camp, Shao's father sighed.
"It will definitely be lively here in the future." Shao Shengan went back to build the shed. After he finished, he patted his trouser legs and called to Song Sanhe, "I want to go see if there are any fish in the water. Do you want to come?"
Song Sanhe nodded: "Let's go together." He and Liu Zhen walked over from that side.
Qiao Qingqing found a fishing net for Shao Shengan: "Be careful."
"Don't worry, I'll catch some fish for you." Shao Sheng'an was full of fighting spirit and called Shao Shengfei to come along. This was exactly what Shao Shengfei wanted, and he didn't even care about Dabao anymore, and immediately followed. Dabao was also amazing, he ignored Shao Shengfei when he played with him, but he would flutter and follow him as soon as Shao Shengfei left.
The four of them walked towards the beach.
"By the way, my Qingqing said there are sharks in the sea." Shao Shengan suddenly remembered this.
"..." Song Sanhe took a deep breath, "Then I have to see it for myself. I don't know if shark meat is edible."
"Your chicken is so fat." Liu Zhenze drooled at Dabao. "Fei Fei said she found it herself? Hiss, it's just like in the movie, but in the movie it's a dog, your chicken is really a little magical."
"The world has changed a lot. Anything can happen." Shao Shengan asked them about the sentry posts. Before his third brother showed any signs of vigilance, he explained, "Qingqing and I were both in the archery team before. Later, we were assigned to the security team for patrol. We ran around everywhere and saw a lot of things. We vaguely knew something about the sentry posts. The higher-ups allocated some supplies to set up sentries in various places just to prepare for the big earthquake."
"Wow, so that's how it is! No wonder your family has bows and crossbows, even Feifei is very good at it, when I asked him he said his younger brother and sister were very good at killing crows." Liu Zhen unconsciously said what he had gotten information from Shao Shengfei. The third brother blinked uncomfortably, Shao Shengan didn't seem to care: "Yeah, it's all for self-protection, by the way, if it's convenient, can you tell me how you guys contacted each other, I'll see if I can help..."
