Anyone who has ever had the experience of holding a mobile phone and struggling to search for a signal will definitely understand this pain. In an elevator, underground or other closed space with good performance, when you want to make an important call, you can only look at the empty signal helplessly. The feeling of melancholy and anxiety during the period will be unforgettable for a long time once you experience it once.
As a person who is involved in the electronics world and mainly relies on various network signals to make a living, Antonis naturally has an even deeper hatred for this kind of place.
He was too focused on his work just now and didn't notice it. Now he came back to his senses and thought about it. The word "cellar" suddenly raised his hatred level.
"How deep is the cellar? Do you think that place is tightly sealed? Is it likely to hinder signal transmission by visual inspection?" Antonis looked at Su Zheng with an unhappy baby face and looked at Su Zheng sadly.
Su Zheng was squatting next to Ye Shuang. After hearing this, she hugged her knees with one hand and held her chin with the other and thought for a while: "It's not deep enough to be felt from the outside, but it looks quite big... And the first thing to do when making a cellar is to seal it**** ? Otherwise, we might as well just pile things outside."
Antonis wailed: "I knew it! I knew it would be like this!" Then he dropped the computer to the ground, jumped up from the ground, and jumped twice angrily: "That's why I hate you the most. It’s the cellar of the country! Why is there such an anti-modern architectural layout? Why is there such an evil space? To store food, a refrigerator is enough!!”
"...The refrigerator is not big enough." Ye Shuang paused and sighed: "Stop making trouble Tony, the key issue now is not this... Are you so excited because you are worried that the cellar will become a blind spot for information collection?"
"Of course!" Antonis sat down on the ground dejectedly, pulled back the computer and continued to type unhappily. The heavy tapping on the keyboard clearly showed his bad mood: "If there is a cellar, first of all, there is only one cellar in this kind of place. There is an exit, and there are no other circuitous routes or covering obstacles in and out. Secondly, there is definitely no way to collect my signal in advance in the cellar, which means... If there is any problem there, we can only force our way in one by one. Went in to check."
"It couldn't be a worse situation." Ye Shuang sighed again, feeling that his mood suddenly dropped a notch, and his whole body became listless: "It sounds like it's a tough battle, but I don't have enough physical strength to support it. Do I really have nothing to eat? ?”
The topic jumped so fast that Su Zheng couldn't help but look over again worriedly: "Brother Shuang, do you really don't need me to steal two potatoes for you?"
"It's nothing for a man to be hungry for two meals." Antonis disagreed, still worrying about the problem in the cellar: "It seems that the things I have prepared are not enough. Which one of you will help me put the signal stick?"
"Let's not talk about the size difference between the signal stick and the signal receivers you threw before. Even if those people are blind, it is too late to fix the signal now... Look, people have started to return to the village." Su Zheng picked up the telescope, lay down on the mountain col and looked in the direction of the natural village for a while, then slid down and sighed, with deep regret in his tone: "There is no chance to steal the potatoes."
Antonis scratched his hair: "That's enough, can you stop mentioning the damn potatoes?"
"...You guys chat, I'll dig some grass roots."
…
Ye Shuang, who finally couldn't bear the hunger anymore, stepped away decisively and handed over the subsequent strategy formulation and intelligence collection work to the other two people. As the main combatant, she felt that she should at least ensure her physical strength before a possible armed conflict.
So Ye Shuang decided to dig out some food.
Of course, this cannot be done by going to someone's cellar. The main feature of the natural village is crops. Everyone has either fields or forests at home, or fish ponds and farms can be used. At worst, you will leave double the money after getting the things. Well.
In short, we must first ensure that we don’t starve to death.
Ye Shuang, who had experienced the reality of stealing food for the first time in her life, blushed and comforted herself, choosing a cornfield without looking back...
"What do you want to do? You...wuwuwu, please don't..."
"Tear-"
"Help! Help...nooooo!!"
"Shut up! Or I'll kill you!"
Ye Shuang, who had a bag of corn in his left hand and was breaking another corn cob with his right hand, froze. Listening to the background sound full of old-era rural characteristics, he suddenly felt that things in this world were really full of surprises.
Cornfields, firewood stacks, and wild woods... the three major rural JQ places summarized by the masses are indeed true to me.
Is this retribution for her stealing rations? Could it be that she should have gone to pick cabbages in the ridge next door just now? Didn’t she just want to take a couple of bites of hard food
Ye Shuang was filled with grief and anger. Although the best choice at this critical moment would have been to leave quietly and not alert others, but hearing that a tragedy that you didn't want to happen happened not far away from her was really unbearable for a woman.
Gritting her teeth and tightening the corn bag in her hand, Ye Shuang only hesitated for two seconds before turning around, pushing aside the corn stalks and running towards the direction of the sound.
Soon a piece of crushed corn stalks appeared in front of them. A long-braided girl with a good figure and a bulging chest was struggling on the ground. Her clothes were half pulled open, and on top of her, there was a man who was alone. One hand was holding the girl down, and the other hand was tearing her clothes off.
Fortunately, it looks like it's not too late.
Ye Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, hurried over in three or two steps, and swept out with one swift kick. In the eyes of the girl on the ground, who stared in surprise with tears, she swept the man on her body to the waist, and the latter flew straight out at a low altitude without even reacting. After four or five meters, a piece of cornstalk was crushed before it hit the ground. Then, belatedly, I felt a sharp pain in my arms and waist and ribs. My whole body was in pain and couldn't get up. I curled up on the ground and groaned in pain.
Ye Shuang had tried her best to control her anger and strength, glanced at the man without saying anything, and squatted down to check on the girl: "Are you okay?"
The girl with long braids seemed to have some psychological shadow due to the fright just now. Even when faced with Brother Shuang's beauty, she still shrank subconsciously. She crawled back two steps reflexively, covered her chest with her arms fearfully, and said a word as soon as she opened her mouth. A string of tears fell down: "No, I, I didn't..."
"It's okay." Ye Shuang didn't bother the girl and listened to the whole story. Anyway, he just understood the meaning.
After thinking for a while, he extended his palm to the other party: "Do you want me to pull you up? Do you need to take you home?"
The girl cried and hesitated for a long time. After a while, she finally slowly raised her hand and mumbled: "...Thank you." (To be continued)
