After the division of food and water, the lives of the residents finally calmed down, Cheng Lin struck while the iron was hot, and asked Ye Fu for a roll of water pipes, then he arranged for some youths to go to the lake to get a simple filter, and charcoal from the pedestal Collected with plant ash, water pipes drained water from the lake into a sieve. Once filtered with plant ash and charcoal, turbid water can be directly used. Although it is not clear and clean, after disinfection, the water from the lake no longer suffers from diarrhea.
Although He Rui and the others were found, Han Feng and Duan Lianzhao were seriously injured. Han Feng was injured in his right leg and right shoulder, Duan Lianzhao was injured in both legs, and his entire back was blown up and blistered. Ye Fu and Wenwen quickly helped them To remove the wounds, although the limbs were saved, the burns and blistering skin were incurable.
Many survivors moved from the temporary residence downstream to the tent where Ye Fu and the others lived. They regarded Cheng Lin as their savior and backbone. Cheng Lin had previously said that he would retreat as the head of the base, but unexpectedly, the distribution of food After that incident, he was forced to become the survival strategist of all the survivors.
Jiang Rong had told Cheng Rin about the dungeon. After the two discussed it, Cheng Rin planned to put 50,000 people into the dungeon, but how to choose 50,000 people became a cruel multiple choice question.
Jiang Rong's proposal was to let children under the age of thirteen enter the dungeon. As soon as the pollution fog and carbon dust particles cover the blue star, all life forms will die, but as long as young lives are left behind, when the pollution fog disappears, One day, the, they can get out of the basement.
Cheng Rin agreed with Jiang Rong's proposal, but in the face of life and death, it might not be easy to be impartial and selfless. Young lives can be given preferential treatment, which can cause others to burst into dissatisfaction. The other point is that the operation of the underground city requires oil and electricity. Right now, only Ye Fu could provide this. Whether Ye Fu was willing to provide supplies or not, Cheng Lin did not know. Cheng Lin's fingerprints and iris were needed to open and close the dungeon. Naturally, he also had to enter the dungeon to maintain the order and security of the dungeon., also in need of manpower, Cheng Lin also had selfishness in his heart, he said, he wanted the people around him to take refuge in the dungeon more than those who survived.
Another point is that the capacity of the underground prison is 50,000 people. During this period, the number of people cannot exceed this capacity. Once the capacity is exceeded, the dungeon cannot withstand the load and there may be a risk of attack. In order to ensure the safety of the dungeon, Cheng Rin was decided to reduce the number to thirty thousand.
Among the current survivors at the base, there are more than 30,000 children under the age of 13. Cheng Lin was a little desperate. He doesn't know how to make this choice. Before he met Ye Fu and Jiang Rong, he was a refined Egoist, he did not expect that in his life, he would also struggle against the pain to let more people live.
The food in the warehouse was only a few catties distributed to every survivor, and the water in the lake would be drunk one day. Unless the neighborhood of residence is immediately changed, or a thick fog over the head is scattered, humans may still have a chance at vitality.
Inside the tent, after Jiang Rong told Ye Fu about Cheng Rin's worries, Ye Fu fell silent.
"Jiang Rong, you mean that if you don't enter the dungeon, all the creatures in the blue star will face death within half a year, or at most one and a half years. Is that what you mean?"
"Once my body is exposed to toxic substances and harmful substances, a defense mechanism will emerge. I could feel an increase in toxic substances in the air. Whether it is the thick fog in the air or the carbon ash particles, all of them carry toxins and little radiation The human body Long-term exposure will definitely cause internal organ fatigue and death, unless the thick fog disappears and there is more heavy rain to wash away all the toxic substances, otherwise we can only hide in the underground city. "
After listening to Jiang Rong's explanation, Ye Fu felt that the situation was not so bad that it could not be changed.
"Jiang Rong, if we change the environment and ecology, and toxic substances are eliminated, is there still a chance to live?"
Jiang Rong knew Ye Fu the most, and as soon as he said this, Jiang Rong immediately understood what he wanted to do.
"You want to change ecology?"
"Tell me about your plan."
"Black earth." Ye Fu looked very calm, "The land in the blue star has become a waste land, but the land in the black space is endless. If I take it out and plant a tree, it will definitely survive. Black soil It can also accelerate plant growth, of course whether black soil still has this effect after space, I do not know yet.
Ye Fu's eyes gradually became firmer, "Everyone outside is dead, leaving 30,000 people meaningless. If you want to die, you might as well die. If you want to live, let's live together."
Jiang Rong grabbed onto Ye Fu's hand and chuckled, "You know, I will support you no matter what decision you make. If you want to live, I will stay with you; if you want to die, we will be together."
Ye Fu's eyes were moist, "Jiang Rong, thank you."
Jiang Rong helped her tidy up the broken hair on her temple, "Sama-sama."
——
After Jiang Rong told Cheng Rin about Ye Fu's ideas, Cheng Rin called everyone to have a small meeting, He took the lead in giving everyone the right to vote, leave ecological changes and protection in the basement so that everyone can choose freely.
"I'll stay." Police officer Song was the first to raise his hand. "I can't sit still. As long as I live, I have to work. If I don't work, I won't go." Be happy. I want to stay."
After Police Officer Song made his statement, Qi Yuan did not want to lose, "I also want to stay. Don't try to get rid of me. I listened to your words and cheered. Ye Fu was right, if you want to live together, if you want to die together, you have to die together."
The others raised their hands one after another to express their desire to stay and plant trees to change ecology with everyone, including Xuxu and young An, and even Han Feng and Duan Lianzhao, who were lying motionless, grunted anxiously.
Cheng Lin got up, looked around at everyone, and said solemnly, "OK, someone will take action to change all of this. If we don't act, children must act. Fight hard, and they will die sooner or later. . If you can hide for a while, you won't be able to hide forever.”
“Should we mobilize downstream survivors to act with us?” Shen Li was a little worried the survivors would not cooperate, as everyone was busy surviving now, and no one had the extra free time and energy to plant trees and grass.
“But.” Ye Fu disagreed with mobilizing the survivors to cooperate.
"Although there are many people, it is powerful, but uncomfortable to manage. The other point is if you want them to work, you have to pay them. We can't give you any extra gifts now. "Although there was food in space, Ye Fu was still unwilling to use it, the most important thing was that if he gave food now, it would encourage some unhealthy tendencies.
