Chapter 118 The greatest kindness given by the team
Outside the pothole, more and more old people are wandering.
It used to be just a few old people walking around, but now there are about a dozen old people.
They were all anxious.
The renewed sense of hunger made each of them look very panicked.
But they are very clear about their status. They are no longer a burden and are treated like garbage by other teams.
The team can still survive under the bridge. Both Captain Qiao and the Shi family have done enough.
If they asked for more, they would annoy Shi Yuebai and Captain Qiao.
They don't even have a habitat.
A dozen old people with haggard faces and gray hair were sitting on the edge of the ditch with either sad or numb expressions.
Suddenly, Captain Qiao’s exclamation came from the ditch,
"What is this?"
Immediately afterwards, there was a rustling in the thick white fog, and Captain Qiao climbed up the ditch on a ladder.
A dozen old men stood up tremblingly, looking at Captain Qiao dryly with cloudy and yellow eyes.
"Captain, do you want to go out to scavenge today?"
As long as Captain Qiao lets them go out to scavenge, it means there will be food that day.
Everyone was cautious, and when asking questions, they were still worried for fear that Captain Qiao would get angry and lose his temper.
Captain Qiao was stunned.
Before he could speak, another old man apologized hurriedly,
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, leader, we also know that the team is in difficulty. So, if you don't go out to scavenge today, will you go tomorrow?"
The attitude is extremely humble.
They know they are useless.
Even their children and relatives don't want them. Their fate should be to starve to death.
But they are also human beings, and survival is a person's instinct.
Even those who sincerely want to die will regret dying like this at the moment of death.
So they want to survive.
Captain Qiao looked at the circle of old people gathered eagerly, and he sighed,
"I'm going to scavenge today, but."
When he said the first half of the sentence, everyone's eyes lit up.
It was a kind of transparency that came from the heart.
But when it comes to the latter part, everyone is tense again, fearing that Captain Qiao will say something earth-shattering.
"But let's eat something first and then go out to scavenge."
Behind Captain Qiao, Xu Xuejiao climbed up from under the ladder.
She was holding 40 expired cans of yellow peaches in her hand.
A canned yellow peach is as big as two adult fists and is very filling.
In fact, regardless of the expiration date, this canned yellow peach is a very good food.
A can of yellow peach this big can feed three or four people, and there is still some canned water in it.
It can also add moisture to people.
"One serving for two."
Captain Qiao asked Xu Xuejiao to remove the yellow peach can.
The old people surrounding him were so moved that they wanted to kneel down in front of Captain Qiao.
Captain Qiao immediately reached out to support them,
"No need to thank me. Yuebai asked me to send these foods to you. The person you want to thank is Yuebai."
Shiyuebai?
Everyone looked at the box with the same word in confusion.
Originally, Shi Yuebai was on the front lawn, filling the spirit gathering array with spiritual energy.
Seeing Captain Qiao say this, she snorted coldly, turned the wheelchair and headed towards the wall.
Who wants these cumbersome thanks?
Captain Qiao is really superfluous.
"Thank you, thank you Yuebai, thank you."
The old people bent towards Shi Yuebai's back, and everyone expressed their sincere gratitude.
Captain Qiao and Xu Xuejiao looked at each other and smiled, their Yuebai was so awkward. He is obviously doing good things, but he always looks evil.
Captain Qiao, "Everyone, let's eat quickly. The ugly words are ahead. After eating, you have to go to work."
"The reason why we are called burdens is because we can't walk too far and don't have much strength."
"So our scope can only be concentrated nearby."
These elderly people, whose average age is over 70 years old, are able to survive the apocalyptic disaster to this day.
That proves that before the wasteland, their physical fitness was pretty good.
After giving them food, they gained some strength and could still turn over some small stones.
Just don't set your goals too harshly.
For example, you must find food, otherwise you will be killed.
Then they will basically gain something every day.
Knowing that Captain Qiao had begun to distribute food, the other old people who were waiting to die in the tarpaulin also rushed over one after another.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
There are also those seven grown men with crooked melons and cracked dates, and two pregnant women with big bellies and squinting eyes and heads as they walk.
Basically, it’s a can of yellow peach for two people.
After distributing the canned yellow peaches to these people, there are still some leftovers.
Xu Xuejiao took the tarp belonging to the group of deformed children.
They have no ability to take care of themselves.
Captain Qiao and Xu Xuejiao couldn't take care of them either.
Shi Yuebai's people are all extremely busy, and it is even more impossible to take care of these children one by one.
So Xu Xuejiao could only open the can and put it among the children to see if any children with the will to survive could crawl over and eat by themselves.
Just like feeding a dog.
But in this kind of environment, they can still have someone to feed them, which is already the greatest kindness given by the team.
In the open space, 20 old people, 7 crooked melons, and 2 pregnant women had all finished eating, and everyone licked the jars rarely.
Pang Zhenggong came over via the ladder.
"Yuebai and I have reported that I will lead you to scavenge today. Don't worry, the task is not difficult, but you must listen to my coordination."
He has obtained most of the equipment of the search and rescue excavation team.
There are also some heavy machinery, which are placed in Xiao Lingye's team. Song Yucheng and others cannot put them into their backpacks or take them out.
This is just right, these old people can't use heavy machinery.
Pang Zhenggong asked Guaguai to make him a jack a few days ago.
While helping A Hong with her work.
Pang Zhenggong would also go to the visitor center from time to time to do some exploration and so on.
Although these areas have already been explored a hundred and eighty times.
But there are so many brand-new living supplies available.
As long as you can open the stone, you will always find surprises under it.
Even if there is nothing behind the big rock, it can still help A Hong and the others clear some obstacles.
The more Yuebai looked at the garbage mountain, the more unpleasant it became.
Now everyone has been assigned the task of cleaning up the garbage mountain.
She had to clean up the entire distance from Shi's backyard to the public toilet.
Everyone had no objections. Now that they were full, even if they were asked to die, they could only rush forward without hesitation.
The senior group set off, and everyone walked around slowly from behind the ditch.
They didn't spend much time on the road. They only walked a few hundred meters to the visitor center.
"Broken and small stones are all piled up here. We have to consider our actual physical strength and clean up this area first."
Pang Zhenggong began to direct.
He is very planning. Compared with Captain Qiao leading the team, every old man can easily complete the tasks arranged by Pang Zhenggong.
In this way, the speed of cleaning small gravel is much faster.
The fish I bought online today will arrive. Little Bieme told me dozens of times early in the morning that I must go get the fish today.
As a result, I went to apply for a decoration loan and forgot. Now I am going out to get her fish.
