Survival [End Times]

Du Cheng smiled bitterly: "I'm not here to cause trouble, Lao Yu, old brother, we have been friends for a long time, why don't you believe me?"

"Old brother, I opened the door for you only because I saw it was you. How can you open the door casually in this world? Look at my face, I just opened the door and got slapped by someone!"

Yu's father pointed at his face and said, "I know what you want to say. I know you are a kind-hearted person. When I was sick before, you also came to notify my family to go to the community meeting... But anyone with a little bit of brains knows that this matter has nothing to do with my child!

Go ask other people, did he remind them? He did! Later they left our Yu Heng and Cui Nan next door and ran away, right?"

Du Cheng smiled bitterly: "But your Yu Heng and Cui Nan were not injured. Others... Alas, 56 people went out yesterday, except for your child and Cui Nan, Only 21 people have returned. Another one just died this morning, the eldest son of the old Qiu family next door to my house. "

"Then I can only say my condolences, but if they want to kill my son like that woman yesterday, then I will fight them first!"

"Hey, don't be so aggressive." Du Cheng sighed as he looked at Yu's mother sitting next to Yu's father and Yu Heng sitting on the stool opposite him, looking at him quietly with a calm look in his eyes.

"I'm actually here to help you. You see, so many people died and so many people were injured. There should be an explanation, right? They are all neighbors, so many families. What good will it do for you if things get so bad?

Even in the past, when factory workers were injured when they were not working, the factory still gave them consolation money! That's a favor, a gesture! You see, now that things are like this, your family can give something as a token of appreciation, whether it's food or medicine... It's all fine! Say a few nice words in a nice voice to make people feel better, after all, it's an attitude, right? Old brother won't hurt you."

Du Cheng lowered his voice: "Think about it carefully, does what I said make sense?"

Father Yu thought about it carefully, and it was true. This is indeed a good idea to repair the relationship... But he didn't want to.

"I don't agree."

Father Yu was about to speak when he heard his son speak, and quickly glared at him. He didn't want him to appear too fierce in front of the elders, so he should just be the bad guy himself.

As a result, his son ignored him and continued, "Uncle Du, we appreciate your kindness. If those families hold funerals in the future, we, as neighbors, will visit them to express our condolences, but we will never send them gifts in the name of apology or atonement.

Let me tell you the truth, we don't lack those neighbors, and we are not afraid of being isolated. People with ability can survive anyway, and they don't live by listening to other people's gossip."

Du Cheng's words were blocked back, and he looked at Yu Heng in astonishment. He never thought that he could say such inhuman words without changing his face.

But he is really capable. He can hear something coming in front of him more than 50 meters away. What a terrible ability is that?

Later, Yu Heng and Cui Nan fell behind, and the people in front were caught up by the wolves again! They thought that Yu Heng and others must be in danger, but they came back intact?

What does this show? It is very likely that they avoided it in advance!

He came here to persuade them, mainly for two reasons, one is to persuade them to reconcile, and the other is to let the kid from the Yu family contribute more to the community in the future.

The more capable you are, the more work you should do. In addition, he has apologized, given gifts, and bowed his head. In the future, he will not be able to raise his head in front of the people in the community! He must contribute more wholeheartedly.

But when did this young man who used to greet each other and seemed inexperienced change so much?

"You, you, you——"

Yu's father hurriedly said: "He said exactly what I meant! Our whole family means this, please come and make a trip."

Du Cheng was furious: "If you are like this, who will ask you to go to any activities organized in the community in the future! How can you go out and find food alone?"

Yu's father said seriously: "Our Yu Heng also came back alone yesterday, no worse than those who came in groups. It is because he came back safely that he was constantly picked on like this."

If Yu Heng and Cui Nan could not come back yesterday, or were injured, how could those people be so angry?

Du Cheng couldn't persuade him anymore and stood up: "I'm leaving. You two should think about it carefully. In this world, how can you survive without the main force?!"

"Hey son, why do you have to speak? I'll make it happen..." After all, Yu's father's statement is the meaning of the head of the family. If Yu Heng expresses his opinion, he will be said to be ignorant, rebellious and impolite.

This is a common phenomenon in their place. Young people who have their parents alive and have not yet married and had children do not have a say in the outside world. They are still "children" in the eyes of others!

"Dad, it's okay."

"Don't worry about patriotism. I understand that your elder brother is very calculating. Baoer is right and right! People have to be stronger."

Yu's father was puzzled: "What is Du's plan?"

Yu's mother told her guess. Unlike Yu's father, she had a long friendship with Du Cheng. She looked at things and listened to things more objectively, so she saw the trap in Du Cheng's words. Although he seemed to be thinking about them everywhere, in fact, as long as their family agreed, they would have to accept the "crime".

"How could he do this!" Yu's father slapped his thigh, very angry, and was comforted by Yu's mother for a while.

"I was wondering why there is no one who is reasonable this time! It turns out that they are eyeing our Baoer's ability and want to take the lead first so that they can order him around in the future! I am so angry!"

It was just a pretext. If Yu Heng still had the same personality as before, he might be suppressed by those moral words, thinking that he was guilty, and then he would "atone" tremblingly in the future.

Why not make trouble for Cui Nan? He heard from Yu's mother that when Cui's parents were in trouble before, Cui Nan used a kitchen knife to chop out all the relatives who wanted to seize the family property. So even though Cui Nan is wearing glasses and is gentle now, people are afraid of him!

In the final analysis, it is because his family has always been kind, so people are bullied for being kind.

Yu Heng knew it in his heart. Seeing that his parents calmed down, he said, "Mom was right last night. We have enough things for the time being. We don't need to go out for the time being. Besides, it's hard to find food if we go out." Such a large shopping mall has been emptied, not to mention other food stores.

The great changes have been happening for more than 20 days and almost a month, and the survival resilience of human beings has begun to take effect. In the constant exploration, step out of the house.

This is not the zombie era, the population has dropped sharply, and supermarkets and shopping malls are blocked by zombies. It is not possible to conquer and digest them in a short time.

According to Yu Heng's observations during these days, their area seems to be very lucky. Except for some buildings that were completely destroyed and caused casualties, there are many humans who survived in the early stage.

With more people, they need to eat, and the need for food is huge.

Those residents who live near the supermarket will definitely take the initiative. If Yu Heng and his community rush over, there may not even be any dregs.

"Dad, didn't we get a lot of vegetable seeds in the old street that day? Let's plant them, at least we can eat vegetables."

Yu's father suddenly realized: "Yes, this is also safe. I'll go and see what kind it is. The weather is so hot now, I have to choose carefully." He is now thinking about living a good life so that others can't gossip.

"You still have a way to coax him back." Yu's mother smiled, "Your father is sentimental."

"By the way, can we... use the tap water to water the vegetables?"

Yu Heng thought for a moment: "Yes, when the time comes, just take the water out and dry it in the sun to remove the dirt."

"Yuexiang, how about trying to grow chives and lettuce first? Xiao Heng brought back a lot of plastic pots yesterday. I went downstairs to dig some soil. Now try to grow chives at home..."

"Okay! Plant chives and make chive dumplings for Baoer to eat."

Watching his parents discuss trying to grow vegetables at home first, Yu Heng went back to put it in, but picked up the yellow rattan he had cut before.

He planned to pull off the outer tissue of the rattan, according to the usage introduction in the [All Plant Encyclopedia], smash it and add salt to make a long-term insect-proof powder. The remaining inner core can be made into clothes by his mother, preferably long sleeves, and long pants.

Wearing it on the body can not only buffer attacks, but also have the effect of insect repellent. Give the family members [King of Ten Thousand Gu] every forty-nine days. It is believed that the family members can be protected from both internal and external defense.

After four busy days, Yu Heng finally packed up all the yellow rattan strips at home. The crushed rattan tissue was covered with gauze and dried thoroughly in the sun for a day. He added salt and continued to crush it. The final product smelled good, with a refreshing plant fragrance.

Yu's mother liked it very much. She sewed more than twenty bags to store it and gave Cui Nan five of them. She asked him to wear one on his body and put the others on the bedside and wardrobe.

"These cores are a bit too hard and difficult to weave... but they are quite tough." Yu's mother bent the rattan core hard and it would not break at all.

"It seems that I have to exercise well and learn that gymnastics, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with the strength."

"Then you teach me how to weave first, I'll try."

"Okay, let your father come too, he is stronger than me."

So the two big men of the Yu family began to "weave clothes" at home, and Yu's mother gave technical guidance.

During this period, Du Cheng came three more times, once for the previous incident. The Yu family did not give in, and only went once when they were holding a funeral for several other families - when they were making a cenotaph. Because they had no friendship, they just sent simple condolences like other people in the community.

The two subsequent times were for going out.

Lijingyuan Community organized an outing again. This time it was said that they were going to a shopping mall farther away.

Du Cheng meant to let Yu Heng go with him. The first time he said it, he said: "It's been half a month, you must not have enough things at home, right? We have been neighbors for so many years, forget it, let's go together!"

It means that he doesn't care about Yu Heng's mistakes, and he also disgusted Yu's father! He left a sentence saying that we have enough food at home! He just closed the door - yes, this time he didn't let anyone in.

The second time, Du Cheng was really more thoughtful. He said directly: "Your Yu Heng's ability is really this--" and gave a thumbs up, "Come and help! We have been neighbors for so many years, can you bear to see everyone in danger?"

Yu Heng said: "Uncle Du, if you have something to say, just talk to me, don't use words to provoke my father."

In the end, he didn't agree to go, and Du Cheng was so angry that he said to Yu's father before leaving, saying that he would break up with him.

"So I remembered, Cui Nan's food is not enough, right?" Yu's mother said.

"Mom, I'll go ask."

Their family is not short of food now, but they can't forget Cui Nan.
