Chapter 529 Pier
There was no movement for three days in a row, and Shen Wenchen and others' hearts were in their throats.
The food in the city is being consumed at an extremely fast rate. It will take up to ten days for the food to be exhausted.
Dui sent the letter but never replied. They have no way of knowing what is going on with Eleven and Twelve now.
The team sent south to buy food arrived five days ago, and it would take another two days to return to the city.
Those monsters had no intention of attacking, as if the corpses that appeared in front of the city gate that day were all their illusions.
The calmer the water surface is, the more worrying the underwater situation is.
I'm afraid, those things want to wait for them to completely run out of food, and then kill them easily.
Shen Wenchen's face showed exhaustion.
He was so tired.
"Wen Chen, please rest for a while."
Nan Zhi's face showed concern, and she felt equally sad when she saw Shen Wenchen's haggard appearance.
The construction of the biogas digester was not smooth.
First there is the issue of cement.
After Lu Fengyun paid tribute to the method of making soil and cement, he sent people to Kyoto to inquire about it.
It's a pity that at that time, cement manufacturers were only allowed to make experiments in the palace. Even if he approached General Song, he couldn't get the finished product.
However, General Song also quietly told himself the rough formula and production proportions.
He might as well have had people hoard a batch of raw materials at that time, otherwise now he would really be at his wits end and would have to sit back and wait to die.
With the raw materials and production methods, the only thing missing is a person who can refine cement.
There are not many raw materials in the warehouse, so there is no room for any mistakes.
Cruelly gritting his teeth, Shen Wenchen simply rolled up his sleeves and started doing it himself.
The cement production process is very cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, causing everyone to suffer a lot.
It may also be because of Shen Wenchen's "protagonist halo" that after three days of experimentation, he finally completed a batch of home-made cement that was barely qualified. Although after solidification, it was not as hard as modern cement, but for the current situation , being able to use it is considered a success.
Especially after knowing Shen Wenchen's difficulties, Nanzhi specially led Shen Zhiyu there.
Xiao He said that he left good luck on Zhiyu. Since his son's good luck can be used to catch shrimps and fish, he should maximize his good luck buff.
Su Tao even knew the additional abilities of the bracelet on her wrist, so she simply revealed her identity and started spending time with Ming Qin all day long.
She discovered that the bracelet on her wrist seemed to be exuding life all the time.
Any plant she touches will grow extremely strong.
Thinking of what that person once said to herself, she still couldn't bear it.
[Host, at this time, why are you still here pretending? 】
Ever since Su Tao completely let herself go and stopped completing tasks, the system was about to collapse.
Originally, it needed to absorb the luck of others through Su Tao to perfect itself, but now Su Tao seems to be crazy, but it wants to escape but has no way.
The two of them seemed to have suddenly become enemies.
Su Tao turned a deaf ear and ignored the system that was almost about to collapse.
Let it make noises and let it make noises. If you ignore it, you won’t believe Su!
There was originally a one-foot-wide moat outside Yancheng, but the valve was closed in front of it, and some weeds and silt accumulated in it.
After cleaning up, Shen Wenchen ordered the valve to be opened. As the river water poured in, the moat was finally used again.
In addition, everyone was worried about repairing the isolation belt in the past few days, and the task was completed on the fifth day.
Those ghosts were still silent, Shen Wenchen did not dare to take risks, and the width of the isolation zone was also reduced by part.
After the cement was successfully made, everyone started working overtime to build the biogas digester.
Ever since they learned that biogas can save lives, the people in the city didn't even clean the buckets. Instead, they just piled them together, just waiting for the biogas pools to be repaired and put to use.
In the face of a powerful enemy, everyone is unusually united.
The soldiers guard the city wall all day long, and they will be alert at the slightest sign of trouble.
Seeing that the sun was going down again, Nanzhi's heart started to beat in panic.
She always has a bad feeling.
The letter said that they would return to the city today, but the sun is going to set now. If the two parties happen to face each other...
She didn't dare think about the consequences.
"Sister Nanzhi, don't worry, everything will be fine."
Shen Miaomiao was also uneasy.
She had not received any news from Twelve. Her heart was in a state of turmoil and she really couldn't settle down.
"Miaomiao, I always have a bad feeling in my heart."
Nanzhi grabbed Shen Miaomiao's hand, hoping to have some effect.
The child in her belly seemed to feel her mother's panic and suddenly began to twist.
The panic in her heart and the discomfort in her stomach hit her at the same time, and Nanzhi's heart clenched into a ball.
"The waterway they took should be fine."
Shen Miaomiao comforted.
In the river twenty miles away from Yancheng, a cargo ship was going upstream.
"Brother, it's getting dark!"
Thinking of the news sent from the city, a younger brother became anxious.
If they didn't return to the city before dark, what would they do if they encountered the so-called monster?
"Quick, work harder, we have to hurry up."
After giving the order, no one spoke anymore, and everyone began to push the boat with all their might.
This time they brought back a total of more than 5,000 kilograms of grain.
More than expected.
They knew the importance of this food very well. If something went wrong, half of the people in Yancheng would starve to death.
At the dock outside the city, Shen Wenchen has brought a team of people ready to respond at any time.
The sun gradually sets in the west, until the last bit of orange has sunk into the darkness. The light of the torches is very conspicuous at night.
Looking at the black woods not far away, everyone's hearts were already in their throats.
A gust of wind suddenly passed by, making the leaves on the dead trees rustle, and the leaves fell down, and there seemed to be a few black shadows moving quickly through them.
"ignition."
Shen Wenchen smelled a faint smell of blood and immediately ordered.
The next moment, countless torches were raised high, illuminating the dock clearly.
The black image just now hesitated for a moment, and then disappeared again.
Shen Wenchen's expression was not good. He said something to the men behind him, and then he stared in front of him with a serious face.
He was worried.
I'm worried that they won't work here at the pier, so I'll try to find a way to start somewhere else.
In order to carry the grain smoothly, most of the strong laborers are here at the dock.
There are also many people stationed at the other four city gates.
After seeing a bonfire lit somewhere, bonfires that had been prepared long ago were lit one after another on the city wall.
The fire light shot into the sky, dispelling some of the fear brought about by the dark night.
