The next day, only the white of the fish belly appeared in the sky, and the family of four set out in the morning light.
The boat is a lot more convenient than the small wooden boat they rowed before, as long as one person can control the direction and speed from the captain's room at the back.
After the boat left the deep pond in front of their village, Lu Jianguo and Ye Yuanrong were able to sleep in the cabin in front of them.
It took more than two hours to reach the town from their home because it was downstream, and they left very early, so they were two-thirds of the way there by the time they had breakfast at seven.
According to their calculations, it would take them more than two hours to go downstream, and almost four hours to come back upstream, because they had to return before dark, so they had to leave at the latest at two o'clock in the afternoon, leaving them only about six hours.
After the meal, the sun is not fierce, Lu Jianguo with Ye Yuanrong in the bow of the boat blowing wind, the river wind has been very strong, blowing on the body unusually comfortable.
But after the boat sailed around a corner, the two from afar saw a boat that could be the same style as theirs parked at the sand pile in front of them.
The man inside must have heard the sound of their ship's engine and had run out of the cabin, waving desperately at them.
It was a place they had to pass, and Lu Baichuan slowed the ship's sailing speed at the sight of it.
When it was five or six meters away from the ship, Lu Baichuan took control of the ship and stopped moving forward, but the engine was not turned off, and he and Zhou Yan both went to the bow of the ship and fixed the ship with bamboo poles.
The first time I was in the boat, I saw the faces of the three people on the boat, and they were all yellow and emaciated.
The three people saw them but the excitement is extraordinary, two older to Lu Jianguo and Ye Yuanrong excitedly shouted: "Jianguo brother, Jianguo sister-in-law, it's us!"
Zhou Yan looked at their appearance but they looked much older than Lu Jianguo and Ye Yuanrong, so they should have had a very bad time.
There was another young girl on the boat, but she looked calmer than the two old men.
Ye Yuanrong stared at them for a while before asking hesitantly, "Are you Xiu'er?"
The woman was thrilled at the news and spoke incoherently, "It's me, sister-in-law, it's me."
Ye Yuanrong frowned and asked, "Why are you guys here?"
The woman's voice began to choke after hearing: "After the outbreak of this matter, our family because no car, but also happen to live in the river, just in time to evacuate to the boat, but did not expect to avoid a disaster, I wanted to drive back to the village to shelter, but I do not know so unlucky, drive to here is out of fuel, the front and back here are deep pools, and some nearby piles of rocks, upstream is not how to row up, if the Shunliu will drift to town to face that group of monsters."
He said and started to cry out, "If we hadn't met you guys here today, we would have starved to death."
Zhou Yan and Lu Bachuan looked at each other, what kind of luck were they having? Last time when we came back we met Lu Baiming and wanted them to take a ride, and this time I guess it's going to be another one.
Ye Yuanrong frowned at the news and said, "The diesel we have now isn't enough for two boats to go to the meeting, but we're going to make a trip to town now, there's still some food ready for lunch on board, so I'll give it to you guys first, you can wait here and leave together when we come back in the afternoon."
The woman was thrilled to hear, "What's going to town for? It's all infested with monsters there now."
But Ye Yuanrong didn't say much, just said, "Go find some diesel fuel." He said nodding to Zhou Yan and commanded, "Little Yan, go and bring food over to Aunt Xiu'e."
Zhou Yan just knew that the woman was a girl married out of the land village.
The next step was to go into the cabin to get food, all the food they brought with them was collected in Zhou Yan's space, he chose a few in a plastic bag, and on second thought put a clean empty bottle of spring water in the plastic bag together.
When they came out, Lu Baichuan was already holding a bamboo pole to let the two boats approach and stop at a distance of about one meter, so Zhou Yan walked to the side of the boat and handed over the plastic bag.
The girl on the other side of the boat saw this and reached out her hand to take it and thanked him.
The first time I saw her, I thought she was the least threatening of the three, but when I saw her, I was a little embarrassed and thought I was being mean.
In the end of the world, it is better to be cautious than to sail the boat. Even if you meet a hundred good people, as long as you meet one bad one, then some dangers will happen.
The woman saw the boat rowed away, as if afraid that they would not come back after they left, hurriedly said: "Your boat is borrowed from Lu Jianye, right? As long as you come back to bring us to the land village, I'll give you my boat."
When Zhou Yan went to the cabin, she inquired with Ye Yuanrong, Lu Jia Village is now very safe, and her parents are also well, she doesn't have any siblings, if she returns to Lu Jia Village, she will definitely live in her parents' house, her parents' house also has fields, after that, as long as she works hard, she will definitely not worry about food and clothing, when the time comes, keeping this boat that can't be driven without oil will be of no use other than as firewood, so she might as well use it as a In exchange, let them bring their own families back, more chips will eventually be more at ease.
Lu Baichuan and the three of them, because they were from the same village, although they wanted the boat very much, but they were too shy to respond, Zhou Yan but did not have this scruple, heard the words: "Okay, when I bring you back to the Lu village, you give me the boat."
The three people on the boat heard it and not only did not feel uncomfortable, but also sent a sigh of relief, if they had something that the other party wanted, paying accordingly was better than asking someone to help them for nothing.
After that, the boat continued on, after encountering that family, they paid more attention to the shore on the way, there are still occasional villages or misplaced one or two families on this side, and they might even encounter survivors.
I don't know if they were too lucky or unlucky, but they actually came up with whatever they wanted.
With Zhou Yan's current hearing, if it was in the dead of night, he could hear sounds some distance beyond the range of the land village, and now even with the disturbing sound of the engine, the sounds near the river bank were clear and distinct.
While passing a small village, at first Zhou Yan just heard the clanging of a walker banging on an iron gate, and thought it was a bit strange, because all the way through, it was either silent, or he heard some chaotic footsteps, only this time, whether the walker was persisting with something.
Zhou Yan carefully distinguished the sound for a while, and when it was clear that the sound was coming from the house closest to the river, he told Lu Bachuan and the others.
A few people deliberated and decided to try the boat ashore.
The sound of their boat's engine was not small, as long as they were close enough to definitely hear it if there were people in the house, and then they asked Zhou Yan to keep an eye out for any sounds of talking, and if there were people in the house, they would go ashore to check it out, and if there were no people, they would not go up.
The first time I saw this, I heard a boy's voice from inside the house: "Mom, there is a sound of a boat outside.
The person who was called mother by the little child did not make a sound, and judging from the fact that the little boy did not speak again either, he should have asked the little boy to stop talking as well.
But this little sound was enough.
In the past few years, there have been a lot of people who have been in the house for a long time, and they've been trying to find a way to get out of the boat.
The two of them, Zhou Yan and Lu Bachuan, went to the shore, but before they climbed up the river bank, they encountered two walkers that came by the smell, and according to the footsteps they heard before, there were only four or five walkers around here on the shore, and now two came over that would be even better, as they didn't have to concentrate on one, and could be scattered and destroyed.
The two of them looked at each other, so they divided them up one at a time.
Now it wasn't just Zhou Yan, it was Lu Bachuan's flexibility, if it wasn't multiple walkers surrounding him, it would be impossible for one or two to catch him.
The two are in a disadvantageous position as they are pounced upon from above, but they are still easily dodged so as not to wash the corpses into the river at high tide, affecting the water quality downstream.
After easily finishing off the two zombies, they couldn't help but feel confident that even a few more would not be a problem.
When they almost reached the entrance of the building, the three zombies that were tirelessly banging against the iron door finally found a closer target and couldn't wait to pounce on them.
The result was naturally the same as the two walkers from before.
As they walked up to the gate to take a look, they couldn't help but both feel infinite admiration for the owner of the house they hadn't met.
The iron gate outside the courtyard of everyone on their side was welded by the thumb-thin iron rod, and then a random padlock, to put it bluntly, it was to prevent the gentleman from being a villain.
And this yard gate a look is custom, steel bars are children arm thickness, and the lock is the kind of lock that can withstand the high strength hydraulic shears carry hydraulic shear lock.
The two didn't know whether to admire the homeowner's foresight or his defensiveness.
The two of them can also understand why, after all, looking at the door of someone's courtyard, they know how heavy the house owner's guard is, not to mention that in this kind of world, they will only be twice as cautious.
The two people through the iron door gap to observe the courtyard, see the vegetable garden next to the corn with all kinds of vegetables are growing very lush, it seems that the people inside are not worried about the food.
The company has been in the process of developing the new product for the past few years, and has been working on the new product since its inception.
