Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 242 Continue the journey

Compared with the underground parking lot where Zeng Liu and the others lived, although Chen Xin's RV has a smaller space, the level of comfort is completely one in the sky and one in the ground.

Zeng Liu and the others never even thought that in this apocalypse, they can still enjoy a warm and comfortable room, they can drink warm and clean hot water without worrying about what to eat tomorrow, and they can eat delicious food instead of just filling their stomachs. food.

All of this was something they never thought about.

Before boarding Chen Xin's car, Zeng Liu and the others were already in a situation of shortage of supplies.

Food is collected from abandoned buildings, water is filtered by melting ice and snow, and fuel can only be collected from outside wood furniture to chop wood...

Although the bonfire can provide them with hot food, in this severe cold environment of dozens of degrees below zero, even if a glass of boiling water is poured out, it can freeze into ice before it hits the ground. The so-called hot food is actually better than eating cold food. Just a little bit.

In such an environment, they can have a bite to eat, it is already a matter of gratitude, and they dare not expect anything to eat well, and it is a blessing to be able to fill their stomachs.

This also led to the fact that the four of them had been malnourished for a long time. The reason why Ning Jie was so ill had a lot to do with their lack of food and clothing.

But in Chen Xin's car, even the humblest shelter-standard food and energy bars were already good food for them, filling their hearts with gratitude and happiness.

The four of them were trying to stuff as much as possible into their stomachs, giving people the feeling that they would not have another meal after eating, making Chen Xin to see how they were eating, a little dumbfounded.

However, Chen Xin can also understand that if a person is half hungry for a long time and cannot find any food, he can suddenly eat a full meal, even if the food is ordinary, it is enough for him. Precious, I will worry that there will be no next time after eating.

"Brother Chen Xin, are these food really the standard rations in the shelter? Isn't this food too good?" Gan chewing on an energy bar, Xiao Ye asked Chen Xin curiously, he was always a little uncomfortable. Can't believe there's so much to eat in a shelter.

Chen Xin shook his head, pointed to the energy bar in his hand and the food on the table, and said, "The standard food in the Refuge is only the energy bar and the mushroom rice in front of you. As for the other things, it belongs to me."

"Let's just say, if everyone in the shelter could eat such good food, we wouldn't..." Xiao Ye Zi had a smile on his face, and wanted to say something else, but Old Tang, who was beside him, was under the table. Kicked him and made him shut up.

Noticing Lao Tang's little actions, Chen Xin didn't care either. In addition to the standard food from the shelter, the food he brought out also included some dehydrated vegetables that he had brought before, which were boiled in water and seasoned a little, and it didn't taste bad. .

Overall, although the food was still very simple, in this apocalypse, it was not bad, especially Chen Xin, considering that Ning Jie was sick, he cooked some rice porridge for her.

As for other things, it's not that Chen Xin was stingy and didn't take it out, but that the present is not as good as in the past, there is no need, and there is no reason to be extravagant.

What's more, these few people are not related to Chen Xin, so it makes sense to take out a little food to make them have a full meal, but taking out more materials to treat them to a big meal is too much.

Fortunately, Zeng Liu and others were very satisfied with this kind of food, and did not have any extravagant demands.

Just while eating, Chen Xin still asked Zeng Liu the question he had asked her before: "What are your plans next?"

"We'll get off at the next shelter, and we won't cause you any trouble, Mr. Chen Xin." When Lao Tang heard Chen Xin ask this question, he didn't hesitate like Zeng Liu, and answered naturally: " Now in this world, there is nothing to say about planning or not, and living well is the greatest hope and plan."

"Are you alive?" Chen Xin nodded and said nothing.

For the four of them, Old Tang and Ning Jie were police officers. Although they were only police assistants, they were still part of the system. When they arrived at the next shelter, it would not be difficult to find a job.

Not to mention Zeng Liu, in today's apocalyptic environment, anyone with medical skills is a scarce resource, and they don't have to worry about finding things to do.

On the contrary, Xiao Ye is just a child who graduated from junior high school. If there is no such disaster, he should go to high school now.

When he arrived at the next refuge, he was the only one who really needed to think about the future and the future. After all, even if it was the end of the world, books still had to be read.

But it's not Chen Xinlai's turn to worry about these. He only needs to put these four people in the next shelter, and I believe that the official personnel there will properly arrange and handle their affairs.

After all, according to the tradition of the Yan Kingdom, even if the world ends, as long as there are conditions, children will still go to school.

What's more, according to the plan announced by the state before the disaster, small and medium-sized shelters should have primary school education, large-scale shelters should have junior high school education, and cities, counties and regions should have high school education. It is not a problem for children like Xiaoye to continue to study.

It is impossible to say that after three years, he will have to take the college entrance examination and continue to study at university.

For Yan Guo, even if it is the end of the world, education is absolutely impossible to relax, and maintaining the operation of the education system and continuously cultivating new talents for the country is also the top priority of accelerating post-disaster reconstruction.

Otherwise, if children do not study, there will be a talent gap over time, which will be a huge obstacle to the reconstruction of the country and the restoration of social production in the future.

In many of the apocalyptic works that Chen Xin has seen before, there is a lack of description in education, and this is also the most important part of those works on the apocalypse. In the end, the social order collapses, human morality declines, and the whole world falls into despair. one of the factors.

Before the disaster, people with complete education, skills and knowledge are limited, and most of these people are adults, and over time, most of them will die due to age and disease.

If the rest of the next generation has not received a complete education, it will be difficult to continue to maintain the existence of civilization, and human society will soon slip into a state of primitive and ignorant.

Therefore, for the last days, the maintenance of the education system is more important than before the disaster.

After eating silently, Ning Jie, who was still ill, was helped by Xiaoye Ye to rest. Lao Tang took the initiative to take over the work of cleaning the table and washing dishes, while Zeng Liu was responsible for helping Chen Xin to check the wound on his head and assisting him. Dressing.

Carefully removing the gauze from the wound, the wound on Chen Xin's forehead was not slow to heal, and it looked much better than before.

"The wound healed well. I changed the medicine today, and I will change the medicine again in two days. There is no need to change the medicine later." While explaining the recovery of the wound, Zeng Liu skillfully changed the medicine for Chen Xin.

Chen Xin didn't speak, just glanced at Zeng Liu and expressed his gratitude.

Zeng Liu quickly dealt with the wound on Chen Xin's forehead, changed the medicine for him, and bandaged it again.

After treating the wound on his forehead, Zeng Liu checked Chen Xin's fractured right hand.

Compared with the wound on the forehead, the healing of the fracture is much slower, and there is no medicine to use. All Zeng Liu can do is to spray some external medicine to reduce swelling and pain on Chen Xin's arm, so that the congestion on his arm is reduced. To dissipate, reduce some swelling and pain.

As for the healing of the bone itself, it can only rely on the natural healing of the bone after fixing his arm, and there is no medicine that can effectively promote the growth and healing of the bone.

Even the treatment of fractures in the hospital is mainly based on bone setting and reduction. The reason why some people need medicine or something is because their bones are reset through surgery, and the drug treatment is to promote the healing of the surgical incision. rather than the bones themselves.

Although Chinese medicine sometimes uses some medicines such as ointments to help and promote bone healing, the effect is actually very limited.

"Does the fracture still hurt? Do you feel any discomfort?" Zeng Liu asked Chen Xin, but did not rashly remove the bandages and splints.

"There is a little pain in the fractured area, but there is nothing uncomfortable." Chen Xin described his feelings, and also tried to move the fingers and wrist of his right hand: "If you move your fingers, it will still hurt a little."

"Try not to use this hand. At present, it's just helping you reset the bone. The broken bone has not healed. When the muscle is pulled, it is very likely to cause another dislocation." Zeng Liu reminded Chen Xin.

Chen Xin nodded, accepting her reminder.

However, Zeng Liu was still a little worried, and asked Chen Xin with concern: "By the way, Mr. Chen Xin, how do you plan your next itinerary? Your arm still needs to be dealt with later, I suggest you better find a professional doctor. We'll take you further in the shelter. You put us down in the next shelter, is it okay for you to hurt your arm by yourself?"

"It shouldn't be a problem, but it hurts one hand, so it won't affect my life." Chen Xin doesn't feel that there is any hindrance to this. Although only using his left hand will cause a lot of inconvenience in life, it is not too big. Question: "My next itinerary is to pick up my parents in Anhui Province, and then I will go back along the original road. If there is no shelter in E Province, then I can only put you in the shelter in Anhui Province. ."

"Is that so..." Zeng Liu looked thoughtful after listening to Chen Xin's words, nodded and said nothing.

Chen Xin didn't take it seriously. Seeing that Zeng Liu had checked himself out, he stood up and returned to the cab, starting the car and continuing the journey.
