Chapter 53 Leave, At Least You Can Live
"This is."

Chen Yong widened his eyes and was about to speak.

Yi Zhe reacted quickly and covered his mouth with his hand.

There was a hint of warning in his eyes, telling Chen Yong to shut up.

If one or two potatoes with zero radiation contamination were an accident.

Then the potatoes with zero radiation contamination and the three bottles of purified water with zero radiation contamination were not accidents.

The Shi family either has a rare and unusual person with special abilities, or there is something in the area where they live that can purify the radiation pollution.

But unfortunately, neither of these two things can be told to others.

Those with special abilities who are unable to protect themselves will eventually become tools in the cage.

They are not even human beings, but tools.

And anything that can purify radiation pollution will, without exception, become a treasure fought over by multiple forces in the end.

In the end, due to uneven distribution, human greed and so on, it was broken into pieces.

Completely crushed into slag.

Yes, this is the wasteland.

A world where nothing can be developed and which is gradually sliding into the abyss.

Chen Yong's eyes gradually became solemn. He realized the seriousness of the problem and nodded slightly.

Yi Zhe put his hand down, turned around expressionlessly and continued to build the wall.

After a while, Chen Yong came over and asked in a low voice:
"Captain, what should we do with these three bottles of water?"

Shi Yuebai might have just casually thrown three bottles of water to them.

But for Yi Zhe and others, it is a big dilemma.

The two potatoes with zero radiation contamination that Yi Zhe sold last time have caused a sensation at the top of the pyramid in the big city.

If I could sell clean water with zero radiation contamination again, I would still need three bottles at a time.

The profit will not be small, but it will definitely be noticed by some people, and they will follow the clues and find the Shi family.

Yi Zhe raised his eyes and looked at the Shi family’s tarpaulin.

The tarpaulin was closed and no one had ever been inside.

Even Ah Hong and Pang Ziyuan, who had worked for the Shi family for such a long time, had never stepped under that tarpaulin.

"Drinked."

Yi Zhe hardened his heart and said, "To completely destroy the evidence, I have no choice but to drink this stuff."

Chen Yong didn't say anything, his lips trembling, and he looked at Yi Zhe for a long time.

During the lunch break, Yi Zhe called Chen Yong and Huo Chenggui.

The three of them squatted behind the marching tent, avoiding everyone's gaze.

There was a bottle of water in front of each person, and the expressions on their faces were as heavy as a hero who had just cut off his arm.

Huo Chenggui: "I can't believe it. You just drank it like that?"

Chen Yong: "If I sell this, how many points can I get?"

Yi Zhe: "It can be exchanged for a leg of the mecha."

Those are three bottles of clean water with zero radiation contamination.

It is estimated that in this wasteland, except for those with water-related abilities, no one can purify water with zero radiation pollution.

Yi Zhe wiped his face resignedly and said, "Drink it."

The three of them crossed their legs and picked up the water bottles in front of them, feeling a heavy heart, as if they had won an eight million lottery ticket and it had been ripped apart by them.

He opened the bottle of water and drank it all in one gulp.

Chen Yong stood up, holding his chest. "Damn it, I'm being extravagant today."

"Go to work!"

Since he drank one of the mecha's legs, shouldn't he mix more cement for the Shi family?

Huo Chenggui closed his eyes and thought about it.
"I have to say, I feel full of strength now. The clear water brings me back to five years ago, when I was wandering in the water."

He was hit on the back of the head by Yi Zhe.
"Stop being sour and get up to work."

You've already drunk, why are you still wandering around?

Yi Zhe returned to the wall with an expressionless face and turned his grief and anger into strength.

By the afternoon, he had already built a circle of walls around the tarpaulin of the Shi family. Yizhe was a garrison soldier, but his work was better than Ah Hong's.

Chen Yong is responsible for mixing cement.

Pang Ziyuan and Huo Chenggui worked together to deal with the rubble that the women of the Shi family had carried out under the tarpaulin.

The women of the Shi family transported gravel back and forth, and it seemed that there were endless truckloads of gravel.

Pang Zhenggong was originally very worried about his wife and children.

He watched from the side for a whole day and also helped Ah Hong build the wall for a whole day.

Yi Zhe did just as he said and took on the responsibility of providing Pang Ziyuan's food rations.

When they were tired from work, Yi Zhe would give Pang Ziyuan the same food as Chen Yong and Huo Chenggui.

Ah Hong's food was provided by Shi Yuebai, two stewed potatoes.

Pang Zhenggong was helping for free, so Shi Yuebai didn't care about his food and drink.

Even so, Pang Zhenggong felt that leaving his wife and children to work in the Shi family would be better than leaving them anywhere else in this wasteland.

Although Shi Yuebai has a bad attitude, he does not pose any danger to Ah Hong.

In addition, the Shi family has mercenaries as their backing.

At night, Pang Zhenggong carried Pang Ziyuan home on her back, accompanied by Ah Hong, who looked tired but relaxed.

"Pang Zhenggong, you are finally back."

Outside the Pang family's tarpaulin, a man with an anxious look on his face walked up.
"When are we leaving?"

The man who was speaking was the one who had dragged Pang Zhenggong out to look for food alone these days.

And went to visit other survivor teams with friends.

The strength of this Qiaoxia team is getting weaker and weaker. After the death of the men of the Shi family, their defense has been greatly weakened.

The morale in the team is unsettled, and several families have secretly left in the past few days.

Pang Zhenggong was stunned for a moment, then handed Pang Ziyuan over to Ah Hong, who looked uneasy.

"Take your son in first."

Ah Hong carried her son on her back and shook her head desperately, "No, I won't go."

At first, she had no feelings about Pang Zhenggong's idea of leaving the team.

There is nothing to eat at home, and staying in the team under the bridge is also a death sentence.

Going out does not necessarily mean you will survive.

But now, Ah Hong strongly does not want to leave.

You may not survive if you go out, but you will definitely survive if you follow Shi Yuebai.

It will get better slowly, she doesn't want to leave.

Pang Zhenggong nodded towards Ah Hong.
"Okay, we won't leave. You take your son back to rest first. You've been tired all day."

"Don't forget, you still have to take your son to work tomorrow, so you need to rest well now."

His words finally calmed down the frightened Ah Hong.

Ah Hong hurried back to the Pang family's tent with her son on her back.

I still have to work hard tomorrow.

Only if she worked hard for Shi Yuebai would she and her son have a share of food.

There is also clean water to drink.

This is a secret, a secret that no one can tell.

Outside the Pang family's tarpaulin, Pang Zhenggong said to her friend very seriously,

"We're not leaving. I've seen the teams outside, and their attitude towards women and children isn't even one tenth as good as here."

“Even though the teams outside are very strong, my wife and son simply can’t survive in that environment.”

The friend stared at Pang Zhenggong with eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Do you know what you are talking about? If you stay here, your whole family will starve to death."

"Leave, at least you can live."

"And they said that as long as you can continue to find food for the team, they will not touch your wife."

 I am now starting to lose weight and am preparing to adopt intermittent fasting.
