Chapter 72 Sending warmth to the community
The small yard is built on a low slope, with a stone plaza in front of it, covered with flat cement floor, and a big banyan tree planted. There is also a stone table and a few stone chairs under the banyan tree, and a chessboard is carved on the table. It seems that the owner of the yard likes to play chess without any trouble.
The yard gate is closed, and there are walls poured out of concrete on both sides. You can't see the situation inside, but you can hear the crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs.
Liu Lang stood in front of the door, cleared his throat and shouted, "Is there anyone inside? Open the door and check the water meter."
Zhang Danni next to her couldn't help laughing. The little girl's eyes were still a little red. She cried when she just buried Zhou Lei. She was still a little sad now, but she was still amused by Liu Lang's words.
Liu Lang did it on purpose, not wanting everyone to be immersed in the sadness. When he heard that there was no movement in the yard, he changed his line: "My fellow villager, don't be afraid, I am here to bring you warmth on behalf of the community."
This time, even the corners of Xiao Qimei's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and Zhang Danni even gave him a few rolls of eyes.
There was still no movement, so Liu Lang was not polite and asked Qin Tiezhu to stand on horseback. His elder brother climbed up the wall on his legs. When he climbed over the wall, a local dog rushed up and barked at Liu Lang.
Fortunately, the dog was picked up by the iron chain, and his eyes were normal, and there was no sign of corpse transformation.
Liu Lang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know you like me, and I like you too. I will make you into dog meat hotpot at night and wait."
Opening the door and letting everyone in, Liu Lang patted Takasugi on the shoulder: "Go and see if anyone is inside."
Shapi Dog walked over and came to the self-built house on the two floors of the yard. Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door opened by itself, and a kitchen knife was stretched out. Someone inside shouted, "Get out! Get out of my yard!"
Takasugi was so scared that he quickly took a few steps back. Liu Lang passed by him and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, uncle, do you think the bad people are as handsome as me?"
Shameless! Zhang Danni complained in her heart.
Xiao Qimei also stepped forward and helped and said, "He is right, uncle, we are not bad people. My surname is Xiao, do you know about the Xiao family in Longchuan? I am from the Xiao family."
In the door, a man in his early fifties walked out. He had a dark skin, a strong body, and an honest look: "Are you from the Xiao family?"
Xiao Qimei said, "Xiao Zhengfeng is my grandfather."
The man slowly lowered his hand holding the knife, and Liu Langdaqi looked at Xiao Qimei frequently: "Okay, your Xiao family is quite thrifty in Longchuan."
Xiao Qimei laughed in a low voice and said, "Our Xiao family was originally a big family in Longchuan. It was not surprising that my father's generation went to Rongyang City to develop. So the people near Longchuan know that our Xiao family is not surprising."
"I don't think you have the courage to cheat with Mr. Xiao, come in." The man walked into the room and turned around and waved to them.
Liu Lang asked the entourage to watch outside the yard, so he took Wang Yingxue in, and Zhang Danni and others into the house one after another.
In the living room of the room, everyone sat down. The man took a few cups, poured water, and put it on the table: "Drink."
Liu Lang didn't dare to take it, and he didn't know where the water came from, was it clean? Will there be a virus?
The man picked up a cup by himself, raised his head and drank it: "Don't worry, the water I use now comes from the water storage buckets upstairs. There is a lot of water and it is clean. If you drink it, you won't be able to turn into a corpse."
It seems that he also knows that the river water and tap water are not clean.
Liu Lang then picked up a cup and started drinking it. When the others saw that he had drunk it, they raised their glasses one after another.
After drinking a sip of boiling water, Liu Lang put down his cup: "Uncle, what do you call me?"
The man pulled over a chair and sat down, took a basin next to him, which was covered with clean taro. He picked up one of them and peeled it: "My name is Ma Youcai, I am from Majia Village. I have lived here for most of my life."
"Uncle Ma, then what's your village like now?" Liu Lang quickly inquired about the situation.
Ma Youcai shook his head: "What's it like? It's a change of weather, so many people are dead. Fortunately, I live in the suburbs of the village, and not many people have come here in the past. Otherwise, I would have become a zombie."
Zhang Danni and others sniffed the air conditioner: "Uncle Ma, do you mean that there are also living zombies in the village?"
Ma Youcai nodded: "More than just, the day after the accident, I also called the old brother from Longchuan County. He heard that the same is true in the county town, and maybe other places would be the same."
"Look, it's been so many days. Not to mention the rescue team, you can't even see the army. Look, this world is the best place for the big egg."
Zhang Danni and the others couldn't help looking at each other. They thought they would have just escaped from Rongyang City. Now it seems that they would not run to the deep mountains and forests or places with few people.
Otherwise, it would be the same wherever you go.
Suddenly, a strange sound rang out from the heads of everyone, as if someone had covered his mouth and made a vague sound.
Seeing Liu Lang and the others looking to the ceiling, Ma Youcai stood up and said, "Don't be nervous, it's a rat. There are a lot of rats recently. I have put a mouse cage on it. I must have caught a few. I'll go up and take a look."
He made people not nervous, but he was obviously nervous and walked out of the living room quickly.
After a while, he got down again, and a rather reluctant smile appeared on his dark face: "I really caught a big mouse."
Hughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
There was a chirping outside the house, and Jin Lixin licked his lips and said, "Brother Ma, you still have chickens at home."
Ma Youcai nodded: "It's up to you, in the countryside, you don't raise some chickens, ducks, geese, etc., so I raised a few old hens to lay eggs and eat them."
Jin Lixin laughed dryly: "Brother Ma, let's discuss it. Can you give us a chicken? What kind of biscuit instant noodles we have eaten these days, and we haven't eaten a serious hard dish."
"If there was a meal of meat, hey, that would be so beautiful."
Ma Youcai looked hesitant, obviously reluctant to let it go. At this time, a soft whimper sound rang out from the ceiling. He glanced at him and for some reason, he stood up and said, "Okay, you guys wait. I'll go to the yard to kill chickens and treat you a few."
Gioni Xin was afraid that he would regret it, so he stood up and walked towards the door: "I will help you, I will definitely pick the smallest one to eat."
After the two went out, Xiao Qimei looked worried: "It's broken now, and even something happened in the county town. I don't know how my grandfather is."
Liu Lang walked to a landline phone in the corner and picked it up, but found that there was no sound inside.
It seems that not only does not have electricity supply, but also communications are paralyzed.
When Zhang Danni comforted Xiao Qimei, there was a sudden thunder on the second floor, as if someone had hit a hard object, which scared the two girls.
Liu Lang narrowed his eyes slightly, smiling: "What a big mouse on his head."
