Chapter 373 Cute
The boat is sailing in the water.
After a while, the team member who had lived in Y City said, "I think there will be no water when we get to Y City. Then we won't be able to use the boat or yacht."
But it was still several cities away from the Beijing base, so the team member said, "Let's go to the base first to find a few cars. I'm afraid we'll have to drive the rest of the way."
The only thing they are afraid of is that if there is no car, they will have to walk back, which would be the most tragic thing.
After thinking for a while, Captain Zhang decided to use a satellite phone to call his superiors to inquire.
After all, the terrain of City Y was indeed much higher than the cities they had passed through. The team members from City Y had originally come to City H because the extreme heat had just arrived and the water had just melted. At that time, the water level was still low enough for ships to sail. Bases further away—
Among the teams that came here for special training, no one was further away.
Several months have passed, and based on the rainfall at the time, Y City might have really run out of water.
If there had been no water recently, it would not be a big deal, because it also meant that people who were relocating their bases were most likely using ships.
There are so many people at the base that the ship can barely carry them, but if they carry the people and then the cars in the base, I'm afraid there won't be enough space. In other words, if they are lucky, they can find a car when they get to the Y City base, but if they are unlucky -
You have to know that the outside world had been completely reclaimed at the beginning of the apocalypse. Even if you want to find a car outside, I'm afraid there is no way at all.
If there was no support from above, not only others but also Captain Zhang himself would not have the confidence to reach the Beijing base under such scorching sun.
As for other things, they're really not that important, but the vaccine found in the forest—
In short, call and ask about the situation on the road ahead first.
…
Captain Zhang's call was made almost immediately.
On the other end, it took a long time before someone answered the phone.
Captain Zhang made the call for a long time, and then he summarized all the information he had obtained. What he meant was that no matter which base it was, they all left by ship, and at that time, the water level in Y City also had a certain level, so all subsequent support would be provided by S City.
If this is the case, they are undoubtedly lucky.
In addition, the people above also inquired about the situation of aquatic creatures. They thought that they would encounter many strange things and weird things during this trip.
But they had already encountered these things on their way to Maolin. When they came back, due to the drop in water level, many things were no longer in this area of water. So the things they encountered on the way back were really nothing.
After a brief discussion between the two parties and confirmation that their superiors were unable to provide any rescue work, they could only find ways to report back to the Beijing base on their own.
…
After paddling in the water for a few more days, the group finally saw the ground on their boat after clearly feeling that the water level had dropped by who knows how many times.
However, this land is only on the edge of Y City.
Although the journey was difficult, there was no other way. After some thought, they abandoned the two small boats that could not be stored, put all the things they needed into the inflatable and lighter inflatable kayak, and then continued to move forward.
Naturally, such a task could not be assigned to Lan Jin. After all, she was carrying a child, and the child could not walk far. After a while, Lan Qiaoqiao was held in Lan Jin's arms. Fortunately, she was strong, so it was no problem for her to hold her. But Grandma Ling was old, and even if she could walk, no one dared to let her follow the group all the way. As a last resort, Grandma Ling was also carried on Lao Gao's back.
Almost all the remaining people are moving forward with heavy burdens.
It's okay to travel during the day, but it becomes troublesome at night. Even though there is no distinction between day and night, people need to rest. Now they are in the wilderness and there is nowhere for them to rest.
In short, after three days of complaining, they finally reached the area with houses and felt much better when they rested.
Of course, this is just the houses. If you want to walk from the farther suburbs to the base, it will take several days.
Lan Jin calculated that it would take them 20 days to walk from the time they got off the boat to the base. During these 20 days, the temperature outside continued to rise, and was even about to break 80 degrees.
Not only could the people not bear it, even the dog couldn't bear it anymore and stuck out its tongue, refusing to move forward.
Helplessly, the team members could only put it on an inflatable kayak and drag it all the way.
Captain Zhang lamented more than once, "With this temperature, let alone the Beijing base, even if we don't find a car, we won't be able to reach the next base."
"That's right. The temperature is so high day and night. Let's not talk about the extreme heat now. When will this polar day end? At least at night, we can cool down." Lao Gao sighed helplessly.
At this moment, he was not carrying Grandma Ling on his back, but Huang Jinghe took over from him. It was not because he felt tired carrying Grandma Ling, but because there was an extra person on his back. He was really hot and had to take turns with Huang Jinghe to make himself feel more comfortable.
That's how they did it, walking and changing paths along the way. In short, it was really difficult to survive, not to mention how many mutant creatures they encountered along the way.
There are so many piles and groups of people that there is never a peaceful day.
They originally lived in the apocalypse and would continue to live in the apocalypse in the future. Encountering mutant creatures would probably become the norm in the future, so when the mutant creatures first appeared, Lan Jin did not avoid Lan Qiaoqiao. Some things always need to be faced, it is a matter of sooner or later.
But surprisingly, Ranchocho was not very afraid of these mutant creatures.
On the contrary, I think those things are very cute.
No matter how Lan Jin looked at them, she didn't think those things were cute. For the first time, Lan Jin began to doubt her own children.
This doubt is naturally psychological.
As a last resort, Lan Jin troubled Zhou Zhiye again.
What I mean is, having a psychologist with you is really a good thing.
At this point, Lan Jin allowed Lan Qiaoqiao and Zhou Zhiye to interact. However, the happiest person to let the two of them interact was Lan Qiaoqiao. Not only did they chat during the day, but they also wanted to cling to each other at night. Not until Lan Jin coaxed the child to sleep did she have the chance to ask Zhou Zhiye: "Does Qiaoqiao have any psychological problems? Is it caused by those previous events? Can it be cured?"
