Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1677 I am the Night Devil of Funiushan!

Trading market, mission hall.

Xu Feng, Liu Rui and others came here early in the morning to wait and stayed here for the whole morning.

After spending the morning here, they gained a deeper understanding of the mission hall.

"Brother Feng, it seems that there are only a few ways for us to earn points. We can either go out to collect supplies, do transportation, or participate in construction."

Li Da quickly said, "No, we can't do transportation. We don't even have a car."

Liu Rui's eyes were filled with worry. "But, we can't find the supplies we need for the time being."

When they first entered the trading market, they were penniless.

Unlike other teams, at least they have some points on hand, which can be used to purchase weapons and food, and go on a long journey to search for the supplies needed in the trading market.

Xu Feng leaned against the wall, staring at the task window.

"If that doesn't work, go look for shops in the commercial district to see if they are still hiring."

Ding-dong-

At this moment, the latest task was updated on the big screen in the task hall of the trading market.

【☆Construction site recruitment: 3000 construction workers.

Requirements: Age between 15 and 65, male or female, strong.

Treatment: Meals included, 0.5~0.7 points per day. 】

Swish!
Xu Feng caught a glimpse of it and quickly rushed over, shouting as he ran:
"Hurry up! Come and sign up!"

Liu Rui, Li Da and others hurriedly followed.

This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity actually came across.

With this opportunity, they will be able to take root and survive in the trading market!

In the morning, as there were very few workers on the construction site, about a hundred people withdrew because of the appearance of wall-climbing zombies during the day.

In order to replenish these workers, and since Uncle San ordered to speed up the construction of the buffer city wall, more people were recruited.

Three thousand people were recruited, and this is just the first batch.

An additional 1000 places will be issued every day for 7 days.

A total of 10000 people will be recruited.

The recruitment was divided into 8 days to give more survivors a chance. Some of them were out on missions and were not seen at the trading market.

In addition, more survivors have joined the trading market in recent days, and the number increases almost every day.

Spreading the recruitment over several days also gives these newcomers opportunities.

It was noon, but there was no sun.

Looking up at the sky, there was only a gloomy sky.

The sky was overcast with dark clouds, making it hard to breathe.

When the emergency plan was activated at the trading market to resist the wall-climbing zombies,
Many survivors scattered in other places also face the challenge of wall-climbing zombies.

Henan Province, Luo City.

In the forests of Funiu Mountains in the south.

There is a natural cave with a hole about half the size of a person at the top in the center of the cave.

Two rebars were welded horizontally and vertically on the hole to form a cross shape.

The rebar is firmly welded to the cave wall, as if it is naturally integrated with the rock.

It was noon.

Faint light shines into the cave from the top.

The light was dim, and one could just barely see clearly inside the cave with the help of this beam of light, but the farther one was from the beam of light, the less clear it was.

The area of the cave is dozens of square meters, and the area becomes larger as you go deeper from the entrance to the inside of the cave.

It has a narrow outside and wide inside layout.

The distance from the cave entrance to the deepest part of the cave is about 10 meters.

hole.

There were three people standing.

"Da, brother, please be careful when you go down the mountain." A teenager said to the two people in front of him.

The other two people each held two white plastic buckets, with a shoulder pole and rope on their shoulders.
One was older, around fifty years old, and the other was in his early twenties.

The middle-aged man nodded and said to the young man:

"Well, you should collect more firewood. The weather has become colder recently, so you need to make more charcoal."

The young man smiled and said:

"Okay, I'll just use that earthen kiln. I've seen you guys do it so many times, I should have learned how to do it a long time ago."

"It's up to you." The middle-aged man gave a few more instructions, then walked down the mountain with his eldest son.

They are the locals living at the foot of Funiu Mountain.

The middle-aged man's name is Zhou Dafu.

More than ten years ago, I served in the army for a few years. After retiring, I returned to my hometown for various reasons.

He built a house at the foot of Funiu Mountain and married a wife through a blind date.

I took over a few acres of land from my old father to farm. I usually do transportation in the village, sending villagers to the market in town, and earning three or four yuan a person.

So many years passed, and later two children were born. He and his wife raised the two sons. Before the end of the world, one was in high school and the other in junior high school, both attending school in the town.

When the apocalypse broke out, it happened to be a Saturday and both sons were at home, so they survived.

Since he lives in the countryside and his nearest neighbor is several hundred meters away from him, he rarely encounters zombies.

In addition, he had been a soldier before and had stronger fighting ability than ordinary people, which enabled him to protect his wife and children well.

Later, in order to avoid zombies, he brought his family to a cave in the back mountain of Funiu.

And all the useful supplies from home and other family members in the village were moved to the mountain.

This cave was where he often played during his childhood.

The Funiu Mountains are very large and belong to a branch of the Qinling Mountains. They are distributed in nearly ten counties and cover an area of tens of thousands of hectares.

Zhou Dafu tied two white plastic buckets together with a rope, then hung them on a shoulder pole and carried them.

Such a white plastic bucket can hold 20 liters of water. He and his son brought four plastic buckets, which can hold 80 liters.

If they use this water sparingly, it will be enough for them to use for half a month.

The water source is 5 kilometers away from the cave and it takes two hours to walk there.

On the way, Zhou Chen looked around and asked his father:

"Da, why don't we go somewhere else? Last time we finally met a group of survivors, but you didn't contact them. We don't know what the outside world has become."

Since moving to the mountains, they have never returned to the village except to search for supplies.

Especially in the past two years, they have hardly ever come down the mountain.

If the spring in the cave had not dried up, they would not have gone down the mountain to fetch water.

In that cave, there is a one-meter-wide spring. They used to rely on this spring water to solve the problem of drinking water.

After hearing his son's question, Zhou Dafu turned around and said to his eldest son seriously:
"Don't run out out of curiosity. It's definitely not as safe out there as it is in the mountains."

"Why?" Zhou Chen asked puzzledly.

He was only 15 years old when the apocalypse broke out, and even now he is only 21 years old, an age full of vigor and vitality, but he is trapped in the mountains, which makes him very uncomfortable.

Zhou Dafu looked up at the sky with cloudy eyes.

There was a sense of vicissitudes in his tone: "Because in this kind of natural disaster, the more people there are, the more dangerous it is."

"Anyway, it's safest for us not to run away. You're already old enough and have seen some things. You also know how your uncle Zhao, our next-door neighbor, died."

"move."

After the man finished speaking, he continued walking down the mountain.

The mountain road was steep and they walked with difficulty.

The drought lasted for several months, and large areas of trees on the mountains died.

There were bare branches and fallen leaves all over the ground, and they stepped on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound.

A gray sparrow was standing on the branch. Zhou Chen saw it and said with some regret:

"Da, it's a pity that I didn't bring a bow and arrow, otherwise I could have shot the bird down."

"Stop looking and let's go. It's getting dark early now. We have to go back quickly." Zhou Dafu said without turning his head.

The two men carried the shoulder poles and walked down the mountain.

When they passed some extremely rugged sections, they had to put down the shoulder poles and buckets and climb down.

The slope of this rugged road reaches 90 degrees. It is impossible to go down if you carry things without throwing them down first.

Because the mountain is so steep, there haven't been many zombies disturbing them in recent years.

But even so, they still occasionally encounter zombie animals, which pose a threat to their survival.

More than an hour later.

They arrived at a reservoir at the foot of the mountain.

This lake is quite large and was a relatively large reservoir before the end of the world, named Luhun Reservoir.

Even though there has been no rain for several months, the reservoir has not dried up.

The surface of the reservoir is extremely calm, but danger lurks beneath the calm surface.

The reservoir covers a large area of more than 30 square kilometers, and Luhun Town is to the south.

Moreover, the river water from the west flows into here, and when the river water flows here, it will also bring zombies here.

The two men walked to the top of a cliff, skillfully took the hemp rope from the shoulder pole, and tied the hemp rope to the ear hooks on the white plastic bucket.

"Da, the water level of this reservoir seems to have dropped again. If it continues like this, we may have to go down to fetch water." Zhou Chen said, looking at the lake under the cliff.

The cliff is about fifteen meters away from the water surface. When they came here to fetch water before, the cliff was only about ten meters away from the water surface.

This means that the water level in the reservoir has dropped by another five meters.

"We'll talk about it later. Come here and tie the rope to that tree." After Zhou Dafu tied the rope to the bucket hook, he threw the other end to his eldest son.

Zhou Chen grabbed the other end of the rope, pulled it back, and tied it to the tree behind.

Zhou Dafu picked up the white plastic bucket, held the rope tightly, and lowered it little by little.

He didn't dare throw the plastic bucket directly into the water because the noise would be too loud and might easily disturb the zombies in the reservoir.

Although they were on the cliff, the zombies in the water had to take a long detour to get up.

Even if the zombies in the reservoir were alarmed, they would have retreated by the time the zombies in the water reached their location.

However, once the zombies in the water are alarmed, they will inevitably pull their buckets, which will cause great trouble for them to get water.

Therefore, if they can avoid alerting the zombies, they will never seek trouble and attract the attention of the zombies.

As he pulled the bucket, it slowly reached the surface of the lake.

The weight on the hanging ear increases the weight of the head of the plastic bucket, causing the mouth of the plastic bucket to sink.

Gumbling--

Water continued to flow into the plastic bucket, causing small ripples on the originally calm surface of the lake.

The two people on the cliff held their breath, not daring to breathe.

Looking at the plastic bucket on the lake, it slowly sank into the water.

next second.

Zhou Dafu tightened the rope and pulled it upwards with force.

20 liters of water is not heavy, but at a height of more than ten meters, if your hand slips and you fall, it will definitely attract the attention of the zombies in the lake.

Zhou Dafu used both hands to pull it up little by little, while Zhou Chen behind him held the rope from behind.

This way, if the father's hand slips, he can pull the bucket tight to remedy the situation and prevent it from falling into the water.

Two minutes later, Zhou Dafu lifted the bucket, put it aside, and then untied the rope on the bucket.

"Give me a new bucket." Zhou Dafu said to his son.

"Da, this is for you." Zhou Chen handed it over.

They repeated the same operation and filled the remaining three buckets ten minutes later.

At this point, based on past experience, you are basically halfway to success.

Because of the cliff, the zombies in the lake can't come up at all.

Zhou Dafu let out a long sigh and said to his son:

"Okay, put the bucket on quickly and let's go back."

Zhou Chen looked into the distance at Luhun Town across the reservoir. It was several kilometers away from them and looked a little blurry from here.

Before the end of the world, he was studying in Luhun Town.

Luhun Middle School.

He was only fifteen years old at the time and had a girlfriend at school, who was his classmate.

On the Friday before the end of the world, he made an appointment with Xiaomei to go roller skating at the skating rink in town on Sunday.

But an apocalyptic outbreak disrupted everything and also ended his first love.

"Xiaochen." Zhou Dafu called again.

Zhou Chen quickly looked away, and suddenly, he saw a zombie swimming on the lake in the distance.

And swam towards them.

"Da! Look what that is!" Zhou Chen quickly pulled his father's arm.

Zhou Dafu looked carefully and saw a wall-climbing zombie on the lake.

Shaking all over.

Grass!
"Oh no, there are scary zombies!" Zhou Dafu quickly held his son's shoulders and they both squatted down.

"Scary zombies? Don't scary zombies only appear at night? It's daytime now!" Zhou Chen's eyes were full of shock and his body was shaking slightly.

The wall-climbing zombies are called different names by different survivors. Some call them wall-climbing zombies, some call them night demons, and some, like Zhou Dafu and his friends, give themselves a name.

They once encountered a horrible zombie, which appeared one night after a thunderstorm disaster.

That horrible zombie almost killed their entire family of four.

If the entrance at the top of the cave had not been welded shut with two threaded steel bars, that horrible zombie would have probably crawled in through the hole at the top.

Thinking of what happened that night, Zhou Chen's eyes were filled with fear.

"Perfume, where is the perfume I asked you to bring with you?" Zhou Dafu asked quickly.

The horror zombies have an extremely sharp sense of smell, and although they also have eyesight, it is relatively poor.

They were staying on the cliff, surrounded by bushes. The terrifying zombie below might not have seen them, but it should have smelled the unique human scent on them.

Except for the horror zombies, other zombies are the same. Although they have eyesight, their sense of smell and hearing are better.

Horror zombies can climb, ignoring cliffs.

If they ran away immediately with the water at this time, the smell was strong and the scary zombies would chase them by smelling the scent and would definitely catch up with them.

They were carrying two buckets of water, and the scary zombies' bodies were extremely flexible, they could climb trees and jump.

Climbing a mountain is very simple.

If you run away, you will definitely be caught up by the terrifying zombies.

So, the best way is to hide.

The perfume has a strong scent and is an excellent thing for escaping from zombies.

Zhou Chen took out the perfume from the small bag, hissing——

He sprayed twice, and the air was filled with a strong smell of cheap perfume.

Zhou Dafu quickly took the perfume and sprayed it on his son, spraying a lot.

From top to bottom, sprayed all over.

Then he sprayed it on himself, and finally sprayed it on his head twice.

The two of them smelled of perfume, which made them want to sneeze.

Zhou Dafu held his son's shoulders and hid in the bushes without moving.
