Before his rebirth, Li Yu always felt terrified at night.
In the pitch-black night, where he couldn't see his hand in front of his face, zombies were invisible, and if he was outside, he could easily be bitten by them.
However, after his rebirth, Li Yu no longer feared the night.
This tall wall protected them.
More importantly, Li Yu's inner self had grown stronger; he knew he wasn't alone and had the confidence of a team.
The dark night and the gentle evening breeze seemed to have blown away much of the hostility Li Yu had always carried in his heart.
Focus on the present life and improve overall strength!
The next day, Li Yu and his team went to the mountain pond again. The crops in the fields were looking wilted again, caused by the sun, and much of the water in the ground had been consumed.
It needed to be replenished again.
Li Yu opened the sluice gate by the mountain pond and diverted water into the fields with a pipe.
If they relied solely on ditches to channel water from the mountain pond to the farmland, a large amount of water would be wasted along the way, but if it was directly introduced into the farmland through a pipe, a significant amount of water could be saved.
Before it rained, all water sources had to be saved and utilized as much as possible.
Following the water in the pipe, it surged downhill due to the pressure difference. Li Yu stood at the edge of the pond, looking at the entire base.
A few months ago, the base was full of life, but after such a long drought, it now looked somewhat desolate.
This was still within the base, which was far better than outside. Some trees outside had already withered and died, and even those that hadn't completely died had yellowed branches and leaves.
Logically, in August, they could plant some autumn beans, cauliflower, white radish, string beans, leeks, asparagus, carrots, cabbage, onions, and lettuce, but now water had become a huge problem, which made Li Yu and his team very uncomfortable.
They had eaten bean sprouts many times already.
Fortunately, they had previously pickled many vegetables, otherwise, their vegetable supply would also be a big problem.
Less than ten kilometers from their base was a small town.
There was no one in the small town. Captain Lü and his team had already moved out of the large building from last time. During the day, they searched for some things in the town and then left that small town.
They took it as a warning and immediately went to another place, a relatively remote village.
In this village, during the daytime, they simply searched the surrounding buildings and found some hidden zombies, which they dealt with one by one.
They stayed in the village's Official Building. The Official Building was the best building in this village, and more importantly, it was surrounded on all four sides by walls, and tall iron railings with sharp barbs on top.
This place made them quite satisfied. Below the village's Official Building, there was also a sand pit, and next to the sand pit were some cars.
They tried them and found that two cars could still be driven.
That night, they finally settled down.
The night passed without anything happening.
Meanwhile, several hundred kilometers from the base, at He Park.
Mr. Wang woke up very early and walked around the amusement park. The number of people on their side was not as many as in Liberation City, only less than a third of Liberation City's population.
A group of over a hundred people was already very taxing for them.
Originally, they occupied this uniquely advantageous location with relatively wide land for planting crops, but under the continuous dry weather, many crops simply withered and died.
And they were helpless and powerless. There was nothing they could do without water.
Now, they could only dig some wells manually, but these wells also continuously dried up with the prolonged drought, which made them keep digging deeper. Now, this well has reached a depth of nearly 35 meters.
Alas.
Mr. Wang was worried about this matter. On the way, he also met some people from He Park, who all greeted him. It was evident that Mr. Wang was highly respected by these people.
After all, Mr. Wang was the big boss of He Park. When the apocalypse broke out, it was he who took in the nearby villagers, along with some of He Park's regular workers.
Only then could their group be sustained.
In the early stages, some people with crooked intentions wanted to seize He Park, but Mr. Wang was originally from this place. He had worked in big cities for some years, accumulated some savings, and wanted to return to contribute to his fellow villagers.
In addition to He Park, he also had some fruit and vegetable planting bases, employing people from the village. Many villagers no longer had to go out to work and could work at home and receive wages, so most of the villagers were very grateful to him.
Some ruffians wanted to seize power.
Having been out in the world for many years, how could Mr. Wang not pay attention to such matters? So, before these ruffians made their move, he had already anticipated it and arranged for some loyal people.
Finally, by killing a chicken to warn the monkeys, he once again deterred the villagers.
So, to this day, the villagers follow him with both gratitude and some fear.
At that time, Mr. Wang was the first to kill someone.
Although Mr. Wang looked amiable and easy to get along with, that was only when he wasn't angry. Once Mr. Wang got angry, the consequences were usually very severe.
He Park, as its name suggests, had many amusement facilities built within it: carousels, water swings, large fields of ornamental rapeseed flowers, and so on.
There was also a pond specifically for fishing, which was now abandoned due to drought.
This He Park cost Mr. Wang more than half of his net worth. Don't let his seemingly young age fool you; he was already nearing forty.
This place, built with a large amount of money and effort, had also been promoted for a long time in the surrounding areas. More and more people came from the city, many drawn by its reputation, as it was indeed a very interesting place.
But the apocalypse broke out, and everything became a thing of the past.
However, when the apocalypse broke out, Mr. Wang happened to be at He Park. He closed the gates of He Park, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.
Not only was he not bitten to death by zombies, but he also took the opportunity to build He Park into a base.
After taking in these villagers, he became the master of the entire base in one fell swoop.
Originally, the number of people in He Park was twice what it is now.
But because the previous waves of zombie hordes were too fierce, they suffered heavy losses.
However, it was precisely because of the zombie hordes that their numbers continuously decreased, allowing them to barely support the current personnel now.
However, if things continue like this, they will only be able to last for less than 2 months.
If they still haven't found a solution in 2 months, they will be in a very difficult situation.
But after some time, some crops that are less reliant on water might be able to supplement their food supply.
