Survival [End Times]

Facts have proved that Huang Sumei is still brave enough to speak.

She came at around nine o'clock the next morning and still brought Huang Zhenling.

Mother Yu didn't know Huang Sumei's thoughts before, and she didn't pay much attention to Huang Zhenling. When she paid such attention, she shook her head in her heart.

If nothing else, Huang Zhenling is too submissive and does whatever her mother says. This lack of assertiveness made her feel unsuitable for her son.

Huang Sumei smiled and said, "Zhenling, go talk to your brother Yu."

Yu Heng sat outside in the living room for the first time today, flipping through a book.

Huang Zhenling moved over, and Yu Heng ignored her.

"Look, look, these two children-"

Mother Yu interrupted her: "What did you say happened just now?"

"Oh, there is one thing." Huang Sumei said with a smile: "It's a good thing. A few days ago, a neighbor of mine found a group of wild boars near Bing Hailu. Good guy, there are dozens of them! They are organizing people to capture them. "I think your Yu Heng is very talented. If he wants to go, I can talk to my neighbor about giving him a place."

Mother Yu said directly: "Our family Yu Heng won't go."

"This is a good opportunity. If you catch it, you will get a lot of pork. You can eat it for a long time!"

Mother Yu said she would not agree. Huang Sumei turned to Yu Henglai and said, "The child is already so old. You let the child make his own decision."

Mother Yu was so angry that she said, "Don't think that I don't know what your plans are. If I get you, don't come here anymore. We can't get along!"

Huang Sumei rolled her eyes: "Why can't I understand what you said?"

"How much benefits did you receive from other people to deceive me? I haven't sorry for you, have I? I don't care who you promised, we Yu Heng won't go anyway!"

Pushing Huang Sumei out, Huang Zhenling followed him out in confusion.

"Whoops, who is the big mouth who let it slip?"

Huang Sumei slapped her thigh and hurriedly knocked on the door to explain, but Yu's mother ignored her from beginning to end.

"What can we do?"

When she got home, Huang Sumei was anxious. She assured those people that she was his prospective mother-in-law and could make the decision, and she received a lot of agency fees.

If I had known earlier, I would have asked them to go talk to the Yu family on their own, but now it's fine, everything is broken.

But she was brave enough to know that she had angered the Yu family this time, and she wanted to fix it in the future? Disaster! So I gathered up the things I received and kept them behind closed doors.

Anyway, once the thing is in her hands, don’t let her hand it over again.

No matter how much those people yelled, they didn't dare to break in. Huang Sumei breathed a sigh of relief and looked at those things with a proud smile.

In the evening, the Yu family welcomed a group of guests, all young and middle-aged people, about ten of them.

Yu Heng did not let them in, but took them to the open space downstairs to talk.

After listening to what they said, he asked: "Bing Hailu is quite far away, right? How did you find the wild boar?"

"The ground there completely collapsed... An acquaintance of mine escaped and said that the ground there collapsed overnight and there were wild boars running all over the place."

Huang Honghua said: "Your reaction is quick. If you can join us, we will be safer. Moreover, you have a gun." He leaned into Yu Heng's ear and whispered: "This is a big deal. You're late, wild boar." They were all captured.”

Yu Heng: "Did you see it?"

Huang Honghua also raised his eyebrows: "Don't deny it. I saw you and your dad hunting that day. Your marksmanship is good. It will be your benefit. If you are caught, you will get twenty kilograms more meat than others. How about it?"

"Don't go. I also advise you not to go. If you are bitten and injured, you will be in trouble."

Huang Honghua was angry: "What are you talking about! What a bad luck!" He then said, "It's okay if you don't go, just lend me your gun."

In the end, Yu Heng used a hundred kilograms of branches to exchange the gun for Huang Honghua.

One hundred kilograms of branches were piled downstairs, slowly drying under the scorching sun. This is a tree species selected by Yu Heng that is easier to burn. He has tried more than a dozen species, and this one is the best.

A low-quality gun that can be purchased for only 9 fire points is quite a bargain in exchange for the labor of cutting 100 kilograms of branches.

Huang Honghua has a gun and is more confident in gathering people. When someone asked Yu Heng for his opinion, he simply said it was too dangerous and he didn’t want to go.

Such words have stopped many people from being moved. But there are still many people ready to take action.

Sister-in-law Chen came over again and said to Yu's mother sadly: "Why did your Yu Heng sell the gun so easily and so cheaply?"

Gun? In a lifetime, people will only watch it on TV at most. What a rare thing.

"He makes his own decisions, I won't interfere with him."

Sister-in-law Chen said it was a pity, it was a pity, and then she asked, "Are those pieces of wood useful?"

"We've tried it, and it's pretty good. Isn't there no gas in this house? We'll have to use firewood to cook in the future."

"Really? Where did you find it?"

"Over there at xxx drugstore."

Sister-in-law Chen hurried home, and at the same time the news spread.

Many people have not had a fire in their homes for a long time. They eat biscuits and gnaw dry noodles every day. It is not that no one has thought about using primitive firewood. However, it soon rained for more than ten days. When the rain stopped, the cut branches were wet again. When it is wet, it burns with a thick smoke that can choke people to death.

After someone cut some and tried it, they found that the branches had very little moisture. They became extremely dry after being aired for a little while. It was easy to burn and there was not much smoke.

"Why is my son so capable?"

The person cutting the branches wiped his sweat, put down the simple straw hat on his head, and turned his head to avoid the strong sunlight.

"Hey, why haven't the people who went to Binghailu come back yet?"

"It's so far! I don't think they'll come back so soon."

But, those people didn't come back in the end.

There were 27 people in total, which caused panic in the community. And Huang Honghua didn't know where else he had called people. The families of those people came to Lijingyuan to ask for people, and they even had a fight with Huang Honghua's family.

In the end, Huang Honghua and the families of those he took away planned to go to Binghailu together to find people.

Yu Heng also planned to go and see this time.

There were about 50 people in Lijingyuan, plus people from other communities. The wild boars must be very dangerous, but it would be terrible if none of them came back.

He had to go and see what kind of wild boars they were, or other wild animals.

There were about 40 people in total, and they set out for Binghailu early the next morning.

Binghailu is actually a street in the city center, famous for its characteristic fountains and waterscape streets.

It usually takes half an hour to drive there, but they walked for four hours to get there.

Moreover, the road was very unsafe. They encountered an attack by an unnamed wild beast.

Many people were injured. When they arrived near Binghailu, they were dumbfounded.

Although they had heard that Binghailu had completely collapsed, it was not as shocking as seeing it in person.

This place was completely a valley!

There was no transition. The flat ground cut vertically and it looked more than ten meters deep. The range was extremely large. You could not see the edge at a glance. You could only see the undulating shadows of the mountains in the distance.

Everyone knew that there could be mountains in the city center.

The trees inside were lush and green. Standing on the edge and looking down, they looked like clusters of green mushroom caps.

Various animals were active in the middle, and the most obvious ones were groups of black spots.

"Is that a wild boar?"

"It should be. There are so many!"

"It's too big. It looks big from such a distance. It must be a small mountain if you look closely?"

Everyone was extremely shocked. All their emotions could only surrender involuntarily under the fierceness of nature.

The family members cried in despair, calling out their family members’ names: “Dazhi! Dazhi!”

The voice echoed in the empty valley, but no one responded.

“Look, the rope over there!”

Someone found a rope five meters to the left, tied to the giant tree next to it.

Yu Heng took a look and confirmed that this was the core of the yellow rattan. It seems that it was most likely made by Huang Honghua and his team. Almost every household in their community has yellow rattan strips.

The long rope hung down, and a man said, “I want to go down and find it!” He was stopped by others.

“It’s too dangerous!”

“It’s so high, if you fall down, you will definitely die!”

If I hadn’t come to this place, I would have had some hope in my heart, but when I saw this dangerous place with my own eyes, the despair kept surging like a tide.

“I shouldn’t have let him come!”

“Eat wild grass and dig tree roots, anywhere is fine, but I shouldn’t have let him come!”

The family members cried bitterly, and the herds of wild boars at the bottom of the valley didn’t know if they were frightened by the sound, and they ran over here and hit the valley wall with a hum.

The force was so strong that it shook the ground under their feet slightly, and the fine sand and stones rolled down.

Everyone was so scared that they retreated in a hurry.

On the way back, the atmosphere was very depressing, and the sobbing never stopped.

Yu Heng walked in front, using a two-meter-long thick branch to clear the way.

Halfway through, they passed a place where there was no one at all. The trees here were extremely dense, and occasionally some bricks, tiles, and cement blocks could be seen exposed, but there was no complete building.

In fact, when they came outside, they realized that the area over there in Lijingyuan was really very lucky. The terrain over there did not change much, and only a few places were broken and destroyed by giant trees, and so many places disappeared overnight, and I don’t know how many people died.

In his opinion, it is true to keep the current stability first and adapt to life here step by step.

Even if you want to hunt, you can catch some small prey first.

When he heard about a group of wild boars like this, he didn’t have the courage to hunt.

After this incident, the entire Lijingyuan became much quieter.

People in the community gathered some things to give to the families of Huang Honghua and others, and life had to go on.

When Yu's mother came back from Huang Honghua's house, her eyes were red and she was angry: "When I think of Huang Sumei's courage... I hate her to death." Especially seeing those families who had gone so sad, even though her son did not go, he was still scared.

She no longer paid attention to Huang Sumei, and even when other people came to visit her home, Huang Sumei came over, she directly frowned and said she was not welcome.

After a few times, other women knew how powerful she was and were unwilling to come with Huang Sumei. She herself did not dare to come again.

However, she instructed her daughter Huang Zhenling to come, so that Yu's mother would not be so cold to a girl.

In addition to practicing and watching her parents practice, Yu Heng went outside to study edible plants. However, the results were not great. We only found one kind of fruit tree, which was short and had small fruits similar to corn kernels, and was green. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't be able to find it.

It tasted sour and sweet, and Yu's mother liked it very much.

The people in Lijingyuan were all waiting for the next rainy day, waiting for the rainy day to store water and pick new ingredients.
