My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 2
[Chapter 2 Things in the Ruins]
“Brother Liu is right, even if we can’t hold on to this place for a long time!”
On the side,
another young man with a crew cut echoed.
The young man’s name is He Shan. He has extensive experience in surviving in the wild. He has many fans on the Little Black Book short video platform. Fans even thought that his wild survival ability could be at least ranked among the top ten in Xia Kingdom.
“That’s it. Let’s go there quietly at night and have a look. No matter what, his safety cannot be a problem.”
Liu Ning pulled the large travel bag aside.
This time they brought a lot of things. , can last at least a week.
Ding ding ding.
But just when Liu Ning, He Shan and others were about to take a break, Liu Ning’s phone suddenly rang. When he picked it up and
took a look,
Liu Ning immediately walked aside and connected the phone, and his body subconsciously He bowed and said,
“Chairman, you.”
However, before Liu Ning could finish his words, a voice came from the phone,
“Old Liu, what’s the situation over there now? Have you arrived in the town?”
“Chairman, We just arrived in the morning, and we are setting up a tent right now!”
Upon hearing this,
Liu Ning hurriedly replied.
The call was from Xu Xing’s father, Xu Lang, chairman of Xu Medical Group.
“Pitch a tent? How is the environment there?”
After a moment of silence,
Xu Lang’s voice came again.
“Chairman, this place is really in ruins. It can’t be desolate anymore. I guess Xiaoxing can hold on for a day or two at most.”
Liu Ning subconsciously looked back at his surroundings and said truthfully.
“Hold on for a day or two? Okay! I’ll wait for your good news then!”
Xu Lang’s relief could be clearly heard on the phone receiver.
“Chairman, don’t worry! I’ll call you as soon as I have any news.”
“Yeah! But he’s going to have a tantrum. You must ensure his safety and nothing will happen to him!”
Xu Lang said again.
“Don’t worry.”
Binghu Oil Town is very big. The property rights of the abandoned houses in Xu Xing’s hands show that the town is two kilometers long from east to west and three kilometers wide from north to south.
Therefore,
Xu Xing doesn’t know that deep inside the town, There are still four people hiding in the ruins.
At this moment,
he was holding an engineering shovel and came to a corner of a ruined wall near the national highway.
This was the place he finally chose to spend the night after spending nearly half an hour.
There are only three adobe walls in this ruin, and there is nothing on the side near the road. The area enclosed by the three adobe walls is about thirty-five or six square meters.
The reason why I chose this place is because the ruined earth wall is thick enough and strong enough, and it is right on the edge of the national highway!
In addition,
there is a large pile of sand behind the ruins, which can serve as a wind barrier, and there is no need to worry about being crushed by other ruined walls.
“I wonder what these ruins were used to do?” Xu Xing said to himself
while standing in front of the ruined wall,
rolling up his sleeves.
Although the adobe wall of this ruin is very thick, the inside of the ruins is not smooth. Various residual garbage, large pieces of waste adobe stuck together, collapsed wood and sand are piled up all over the ruins.
If you want to stay here overnight, you must clean out all the garbage inside.
puff!
After a while, Xu Xing came to the corner where there was less garbage in the ruins. Not to mention the dust, it felt like there were a lot of hard things underneath, which was very difficult to deal with.
“It seems that before cleaning up the sand, we have to clean out the big things here. Otherwise, it will be a waste of energy and inefficient.”
When the dust disperses,
bah!
After spitting out the dust he just breathed in, Xu Xing frowned and stood up.
Although Xu Xing is a top chef and is very particular about food and drink, the goal he set for himself today is to build a campsite that can last for a long time.
Therefore,
I won’t waste time setting up a stove to boil water for cooking today, let alone doing other things.
“Get up!”
Just do it. Xu Xing immediately put down his engineering shovel and began to clean up the large pieces of adobe that were still stuck together with his bare hands.
“Wait a minute, are these the wooden beams from before?”
However,
Xu Xing’s eyes lit up when he looked down again without losing a few pieces of adobe.
A wooden pile head with a diameter of thirty to forty centimeters was exposed under the adobe. The head of the wooden pile did not seem to be much decayed.
I remember that in the 1970s and 1980s, houses were built with wooden beams and rafters, and some of them had undergone special treatment to prevent them from decaying.
It must have been that the house was still in good condition when the original residents of the town left. The back part collapsed due to disrepair and the wooden beams and rafters were trapped underneath.
“Not bad! Not bad! It’s a good thing. It can be used for making fire or as a firewood! And there may be other things besides wooden beams.”
After returning to his senses,
Xu Xing gained a lot of energy and immediately started to follow this Root wood to clean adobe.
The supplies he brought this time contained all kinds of tools, and he had dabbled in some carpentry work when he was on Earth. He couldn’t say he was proficient in all kinds of mortise and tenon joints, but he could make simple beds and tables.
One minute, two minutes.
Time flew by, and more than two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, under the scorching sun,
Xu Xing seemed to have forgotten the heat and fatigue. In the end, he even started working shirtless.
At this time, the appearance of the ruins has changed a lot from before.
The originally high pile of ruins looks much smoother. There is also a pile of wood beside the outer wall of the ruins. In addition, there are many connecting pieces of wood. large iron nail in the shape of a workhorse.
These iron nails were about the thickness of a thumb and were rusty but still functional.
Just as Xu Xing guessed,
in addition to many wooden rafters, there were other things in the ruins, especially iron nails used on various construction sites.
Bang! After
getting up
and throwing another big iron nail, Xu Xing got up and patted the dust on his clothes.
Either because I came to another world, or because of the sense of surprise when I dug out useful things from time to time when clearing the ruins, I didn’t feel any fatigue after working for two consecutive hours, and I drank a bottle in the middle of it. of mineral water,
I even felt that it would be no problem even if I worked for another two hours.
“The large pieces of adobe and unruly wood have been almost cleared. It will be much easier to clean up with the engineering shovel now!” Xu Xing
took a deep breath and
looked at the inside of the ruins that were already pleasing to the eye, with a look of satisfaction on his face. .
When I was cleaning up a corner of the ruins, I found that the red brick floors that were previously paved on the ground are still there. As long as the remaining sand and soil waste are cleared out,
let alone setting up a tent or even a bed inside, and put some other Everything is fine.
“It is detected that there are scraps that can be pawned around, and the scrap pawn system is officially activated.”
But just when Xu Xing turned and walked towards the outer wall to get the ordnance shovel, a mechanized voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
“Huh? What’s going on? Who…”
The sudden voice really startled Xu Xing, especially in such a deserted place, no matter how brave he was, he couldn’t stand the sudden sound in his ears.
However, before Xu Xing could regain his senses,
the next moment,
several more voices sounded in Xu Xing’s ears,
“Ding, the system is being bound to the host. Please prepare the host for merging the system. After the fusion of the system and the host, it will be permanently Follow the host”
