Chapter 52 052 High temperature, basement 1
Vultures are vultures. They are very large and can fly thousands of miles into the air, so their flesh is not only hard, but also carries a variety of parasites and germs. Second, it is not easy to handle.
Ye Fu analyzed the pros and cons for the two, but judging from He Rui's expression, he had no intention of giving up on these two vultures.
“There will be no parasites in dried meat after exposure to sunlight, and we have strong resistance and are not afraid of germs. Sister Xiaoye, let alone a vulture, someone had dug out her roots before.” Break your own hand
, salt, dry, burn, and sunbathe in the sun.” Ye Fu returned home and lent them a sharp kitchen knife.
There is a way of life in the age of civilization, and there is a way of life in the end times.
If he did not gain space after reliving his life, Ye Fu knew in his heart that the situation would only get worse.
The next day, when He Rui came to return the kitchen knife, he brought Ye Fu half a catties of vulture meat, the meat was cut into pieces, and smeared with chili powder, he said, who were brought back as they left to find supplies last time.
The vulture's flesh was handled extremely well, and Ye Fu also admired their abilities.
Two days later, Officer Song took the two of them out again in search of supplies. Officer Song was a restless person, probably because of his professional relationship, he was very sensitive and had a sense of crisis.
Daytime temperatures are getting higher by the day, when it reaches 52 degrees, the vultures outside cannot stand the sunlight and emit sharp neighing sounds.
The ground downstairs has cracked. In the middle of the night, Ye Fu came down to observe. The crack was already five centimeters wide, and the ground had been abandoned. As long as there was a hint of wind, the yellow sand would explode all over the sky.
The next day, Police Officer Song and the others came back and knocked on the door to tell Ye Fu the good news. They found some supplies at the Yong'an Temple in Xishan. There were many things, and they asked Ye Fu to move with them at night.
"Brother Song, He Rui, Zhang Yuan, share the things you find among yourself. The things you brought back from the Fenglin Mansion last time were enough for me to eat for a long time. " Credit Rui, he said when his mother
taking him to the Yong'an Temple to present incense, he accidentally saw the monks in the temple moving the rice into the basement. You're lucky. "Officer Song was very excited as he spoke, and gestured with his hands to indicate the size of the basement.
"Yes, Brother Xiaoye, hopefully the five of us can survive. We must unite now, help each other, regardless of each other. Don't refuse. If you refuse, we won't dare to bother you if we get sick in the future."
Ye Fu looked at He Rui and smiled helplessly.
“OK, I'll be going, what time is it tonight?”
“Depart at 9:30, grab the rope and the sack.” Officer Song wore a watch, and he set the time, and everyone returned to their homes.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Ye Fu started packing his equipment. There were two sacks, a bundle of hemp rope, an arrow and Tang's knife hanging on his arm, and he was wearing an airtight sun protective suit. He thought of something, took out a ton of buckets and filled them. Hang your body for water.
Wenwen was still locked up in the house by Police Officer Song. At 09:30, the four of them departed from the Xingfu Community to Yong'an Temple in Xishan on time. It takes 50 minutes to walk there. No one said a word along the street, and everyone lowered their heads., Officer Song walked in front, and Ye Fu walked in behind.
He Rui and Zhang Yuan were weaker in physical strength, but they still gritted their teeth and held on without restraint.
At 10:20, the four of them arrived at the foot of West Mountain. Due to the flood, all the stairs and roads here were washed away. Now the rocks and the sand are strangely piled up, making it very difficult to climb the mountain .
The Yong'an Temple was also badly damaged by the flood, the huge Buddha Statue at the entrance was half covered in sand, and the eyes of compassion were still looking down at the city.
"The basement is behind, this part of the road is difficult, please be careful."
In order not to cause trouble, everyone could only walk in the darkness, and Ye Fu's flashlight was not lit. Fortunately, he was wearing night vision goggles Compared to the other three, It would be easier for him.
He Rui and Zhang Yuan were grappling the entire time, Ye Fu saw their knees bleeding, but no one made a sound.
After falling and climbing into the small, stand-alone courtyard behind the Yong'an Temple, He Rui said that this was the kitchen, and the basement was just below the kitchen.
After moving the boulder over, Police Officer Song dug briefly with the small shovel he was carrying, and dug into the ground above it, revealing an iron plate. Only then did Ye Fu understand why the basement was still intact under heavy rain and flooding. .
After the four of them entered, Ye Fu discovered that in addition to food, there were also a large number of books, Buddhist scriptures, and many valuable collections.
“When we came last night, there were a few bodies at the door. They were supposed to hide inside to protect these things, because the iron plates above could only be opened from the outside, and the people outside had to leave, he said, so inside everyone's stuck here to death."
The corpse had already been moved to a corner, and Officer Song covered it with a black cloth.
Ye Fu glanced at the basement. The basement is not large, about 150 square meters. According to the literature, the Yong'an Temple has a history of more than a thousand years, and this basement was probably built by the ancients more than a thousand years ago.The basement is airtight, oxygen is thin,and the temperature is very low.There are beautiful wall paintings on the walls.
"It's a shame." Officer Song sighed and started moving things.
In addition to rice, flour, and noodles, there are also plenty of potatoes, yams, and cabbage.
Ye Fu picked up a bag of fifty catties of rice, five Chinese cabbages, three handfuls of noodles, and about ten catties of potatoes.
"Come back later," Officer Song advised.
Both He Rui and Zhang Yuan agreed, and Ye Fu did not mind.
The four of them packed the supplies they could carry, and left the cellars one by one. Officer Song reassembled the iron plate, then sprinkled sand on it. Finally, the four of them worked together to push a huge rock onto it.
The path down the mountain was difficult, the sand was loose and soft, and he fell down while stepping on it. Ye Fu also fell down a few times. Hot sweat dripped from his forehead and fell into his mouth. It was salty and shoey, and her socks were soaking wet Sweating, it was very uncomfortable to walk, as if water was getting into a shoe.
As they carried the items on their backs, the speed of the journey home became extremely slow. Ye Fu gave them water and drank water. After recovering the strength, they continued on their way.
The return trip only took an hour and a half, fortunately nothing was found, everyone dropped off the goods and took a half-hour break, then set off again and started a second transport.
The grains in the basement were enough for everyone to eat for a year, and now the only problem of survival was the lack of water.
