Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 198
After hearing this, the young man looked at the mother and daughter behind him suspiciously, his lips twitched a few times and finally said nothing, he just lowered his head to register for the old grandma, but the girl behind said, "Mom, why don't we live with grandma? One, one for grandma, I heard that there are separate bathrooms in two bedrooms and one living room, but in a dormitory, eight people share one bathroom, and there is only one kitchen, so it will be inconvenient to cook at that time."

After hearing this, the old woman turned her head to look at the woman, and the woman also looked up at the old woman, and finally they both nodded, "Then live together."

The young man smiled and said, "That's right, we are all in the same base now. To put it bluntly, we are a big family. We eat and live together, and we have long been a family. If we can live together and take care of each other, there is no need to be outsiders."

The girl took a step forward and hugged the old woman's arm happily, "Yeah, hurry up and register the three of us, we want two rooms and one living room."

"Father, how are you and Aunt Hao doing? Why don't we have two bedrooms and one living room..."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense, be careful not to offend your Auntie Hao."

"How come, you don't come to me, but you want me to come to you. How about it, the two of us, let's think about it."

"Father, why are you so stupid? Hurry up and agree, Aunt Hao, no, Mom, let's apply for a two-bedroom and one living room too. I want a room of my own."

……

Because of the housing distribution incident, it actually led to the formation of countless new families on the base. Originally, there are few complete families because of the famine, and most people can only apply for dormitories. However, if you form a family before applying for a house, you can live in a normal one. The room type has been selected, and it also helped the base solve a problem invisibly, because the original estimate was insufficient, and the dormitory construction is not more than the normal room type. If everyone applies for the dormitory, many people will not be able to apply for the house. People who are allocated to other types of rooms are definitely not as comfortable and happy as those who are voluntarily combined to live together.

The vigorous housing allocation operation had to be stopped after three days. The acid rain that started years ago has continued until now. The buildings on the ground have been corroded beyond recognition, especially the corroded steel frames. Countless rooms have collapsed, and the poultry of the cooperative has long been moved underground, but I heard that the condition of those poultry has not recovered much after being moved down. Although the ground has been raining continuously, it is always on the ground, no matter how safe the underground is. It's not the ground, people may be able to adapt slowly, but these poultry showed serious adverse reactions. Just when everyone was at a loss, the ground above the cellar of Qiao Miwei's house in the former base site suddenly fell down. Fortunately, at that time The Qiao family was busy at the new site, and there were no casualties. However, because the cellar of the Qiao family was connected to the old site, the rainwater gradually intruded in the direction of the old site along the cellar. Although it did not rain heavily, the rain contained The various acids and other corrosive substances contained in it are several times stronger than those of the previous few days, and it exudes a strong odor. If people inhale a few more mouthfuls of this odor inadvertently, they will experience obvious poisoning such as dizziness and difficulty breathing. reaction.

In order to prevent this kind of rainwater from invading the base, Qin Zhiyuan organized people to block the passage here, but in this way, the only exits of their entire base were all sealed, and they had to dig one of the directions according to their memory. Then dig a hole upwards, and this hole should happen to appear in a house on the ground in the base.

The base has grown from a small cellar at the beginning to now has two new and old site bases, and has cultivated countless digging masters, not to mention just digging an upward exit, or digging a new base site. The construction team is also full of experience Unfortunately, digging the exit this time made them encounter a problem. The soil corroded by acid rain would become very hard, and the tools they used could not break through the hard soil layer at all.

"This only shows that I dug in the wrong direction. If the direction we measured is correct, this piece of land should belong to the indoors, and the indoors will not be hardened by rain." Li Xin leaned on a ground under one arm. The shovel, and the other hand was covered with mud, but he didn't mind it, and he squeezed his chin with his fingers.

Qin Zhiyuan nodded, "Yes, it seems that there is something wrong with what we just measured."

Cheng Jianxin raised his hand and knocked on the hard wall, wondering, "How could this be? This direction is right. We have measured the depth four times just now. It is absolutely true. Even if there is a mistake, it is only a one-meter error. Could it be such a coincidence that we missed the house by just one meter?"

Li Xin looked down at the map, tilted his head from side to side, and finally said, "Anyway, we've dug so far, so we have to try again. It's not too difficult to expand this area by one meter."

Qin Zhiyuan said, "I always have a feeling that we are getting farther and farther away." After he finished speaking, he took the shovel in his hand and walked to the wall first, digging first to be sure.

The soil layer in the ground is very hard, and it is very difficult for someone who does not use skill to dig out a one-meter-square soil layer. If the strength is weaker, it may not be possible to dig it out in a day, but for Qin Zhiyuan and the others These are not problems, but after a while, the area of ​​this space was expanded, and the result only confirmed Qin Zhiyuan's worries. They may have really dug in the wrong direction, even if they expanded the area of ​​this space by one meter , still did not dig the relatively soft surface, everyone threw the tools aside in disappointment, Li Xin was in a hurry, took off the towel around his neck and wiped the sweat on his forehead, then threw the towel on the ground, "I stopped digging. We really made a mistake. We have been digging for so long."

After all, Hu Weimin is older and calmer than others, "Maybe we haven't expanded enough, so it's a pity to give up like this. Anyway, we have dug for so long, so it's a pity to just throw it away. Why don't we expand it a little bit. "

Cheng Jianxin nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, I have dug up so much anyway."

Qin Zhiyuan pulled Li Xin up, "They are right, dig more."

Li Xin nodded, clenched the handle of the shovel tightly, and the tangled muscles on his arms formed a graceful arc, "Then dig a little more."

Qin Zhiyuan picked up the map that was thrown on the ground, bowed his head and began to study it. After looking at it for a long time, he turned his head and walked back, "Take a break first, I always feel that something is wrong." After speaking, he took the map and headed back Walking, walking, his footsteps slowed down, and then he looked up to the front of the hole, it turned out that this is the case, they dug the hole, because the curvature is very, very small, it is difficult to detect with the naked eye, Just now he was only looking at the map in his hand, and his sight was not divided at all by the wall and the ground next to him, so he walked in a straight line, but now his body has turned to one side of the wall, and if he goes any further, it will be too late. It's going to be posted on the wall.

He ran back quickly, "Yes, we dug a big bend."

"What?" It was Zhang Shuilai who answered this sentence, because the calibration line was being pulled in his hand all the time, it was impossible to bend the hole by following the line, but the fact is that it just bent, Zhang Shuilai felt ashamed, it was so simple He didn't even do a good job.

Li Xin even put aside the tools this time, "I think we'd better go back and wait for the results honestly, this kind of difficult work is beyond our ability."

As soon as these words were said, one of the people present felt ashamed and had nowhere to hide. They were also because they were too bored. After all, the rain outside never stopped. They have nowhere to vent their energy, and they want to destroy it, just in time for the base to dig out the exit. This is easy, just pick up the shovel and dig continuously. Who knows that it took so much effort to dig it out? The hole that came out turned out to be curved, and now they can't even tell where the exit has been dug.

Qin Zhiyuan turned his head and greeted Zhang Shuilai, "Go, go and call that."

Zhang Shuilai lowered his head, "Yes." He answered weakly.

Qin Zhiyuan turned his head and looked at the rest of the people, "Shall we go?"

Cheng Jianxin said, "Let's go, it's too embarrassing not to go."

Li Xin shook her head, "If I don't leave, I don't believe it. They can dig the hole straight? Didn't they also use the line to calibrate it? They must have left a hand, for sure, otherwise how could they dig it so straight... "

"It's just that it can be dug so straight, otherwise our contracting team would starve to death." This sentence suddenly appeared behind several people, which shocked the big guys.

Everyone looked back, drinking, what's going on, why did this group of people come here together.

The people who came were none other than the leaders of several contracting teams who built the new site of the base in a short period of time. These people were also engaged in engineering projects in peacetime, but at that time they were in charge of building high-rise buildings, and some of them were doing big business. , some people are just making small troubles, but anyway, these people have the real technology in their hands, so when the team base personnel were registering, these people discovered each other, and then they got together to form Wujia Village The first construction team of the base, everyone has countless workers in their hands, and then everyone chooses to build a certain part of it according to their own specialties, and cooperates with each other in this way. Amidst the exclamation of the people, the expansion of the base changes day by day. In the end, it was completed in time for New Year's Eve, and then it appeared in people's eyes. The simple project of just digging a hole and making an exit upwards was nothing to them. I didn't expect that the leaders of the base would rob them. live.

Since the leaders wanted to do it, they would naturally not stop them, but when these people dug out less than two meters, they found that these people were crooked, and the crookedness was very conspicuous, but none of these people asked to remind them. Just like this, I watched the hole getting more and more crooked all the way.
