Chapter 132

"How far is Shoudong City from us?"

"More than 800 kilometers. It's not too far by car. The key is that I'm not sure what I'll encounter after passing there." Li Runshan replied. "But if I'm equipped with enough radiation grenades like yours, I'm sure to make a trip."

"How many do you want?" Yu Hong was silent for a moment and asked.

The new runes gave him a great temptation. The seven runes he copied last time were only useful if the vortex runes were drawn with internal power. If Lao Li saw other useless symbols, his trip would be in vain.

.

"Wait a minute, are you sure it's not the talisman found in the ruins near us?" he asked again.

"I am sure because I saw the promotional introduction at the time. Different ruins have a painted door, and the symbols on the door mostly overlap, but as the core symbol, each ruin has two completely different ones. Experts write

There isn’t much in the introduction, but I still remember it.”

"Every ruins are different?"

"Well, that's what the experts wrote." Li Runshan nodded.

"I've heard about this too." Zhou Xueguang on the other side couldn't help but also said, attracting the attention of the two people.

"We often have researchers on the front lines collecting various materials. Over time, some grassroots material collectors have become familiar with those of us who have lived a long time. After all, they all want to avoid danger, so it has become common for them to learn from us.

"He paused. "Everyone often talks about

To brag at a party, I have heard people say that except for pyroxene symbols, which are the enhancement symbols you mentioned, boss, all ruins have them. There are also many ruins with unique special symbols. However, after research, Silver Tower found that there are

The only effect is the pyroxene symbol."

He took a breath and continued: "Regarding this matter, many experts are unwilling to give up and try to explore the effects of other symbols and runes from various aspects, but to no avail."

After saying that, he looked at Yu Hong with a little respect in his eyes.

Thinking about it, Yu Hong actually developed the second symbol for something that so many top experts at Frontline Silver Tower had not researched.

"I hit it by mistake." Yu Hong shook his head. He knew very well that the vortex symbol probably had to be combined with inner energy to be effective.

In other words, inner energy should be a necessary part of the effect of the vortex runes.

Just like a person wants a glass of salt water, but he only has salt and no water, then he cannot get a glass of salt water anyway.

The same is true for the vortex runes.

"This matter is worth a gamble. But the risk is a bit high. It would be better for me to do it myself." Yu Hong thought for a moment and said.

"Boss, we have to make a difference when we join you, right?" Li Runshan reached out and put his hand on Yu Hong's shoulder and said seriously. "I'll go. There will be no problem this time. I'm an old postman and I'm back to my old profession."

He grinned, revealing his yellow front teeth that hadn't been brushed for who knows how long.

Yu Hong looked at him and paused for a few seconds.

"Okay. Trust you again. I will prepare ten radiation grenades for you. Because it takes time to absorb the radiation and the structure needs to be optimized, it can be almost completed the day after tomorrow. You can set off by then, okay?"

"Okay!" Lao Li has obviously thought about his position for a long time. The words he just petitioned to go out to collect obviously did not come to him suddenly.

After the arrangements were finalized, the wooden house was completed.

After the three people came out, they quickly started building wooden beds, tables and chairs. Then, Yu Hong connected a water pipe from the cave.

Wow.

A stream of white water spurts out from the pipe in a steady stream, washing the walls of the entire surrounding yard.

"I wipe!!! Tap water!!?"

As soon as Li Runshan put the wooden table into the house, he saw a water pipe spraying water when he walked out!

He went numb instantly, and his eyes looked like he was dreaming.

Standing in the mist splashed by the white water, his eyes were as wide as balls, staring at the transparent hose held in Yu Hong's hand.

Not only him, but Zhou Xueguang on the other side was squatting on the ground collecting sawdust and sawdust. When he saw this scene, his mouth slowly opened wide, as if he had seen something incredible.

"Boss, have you secured the water supply!??" He breathed heavily, stood up and asked loudly.

Li Runshan also remembered at this time that Yu Hong had bought him a set of groundwater supply system components before.

Coupled with the power supply from nuclear energy motors, it seems that with Yu Hong's technology, it is really possible to solve the underground water supply system!

"Hey! There's water! You can take a bath!!" Aisena was a child, but she was the first to shout happily.

She ran out of the wooden house and happily circled in the mist.

"So, we should build a public bathhouse." Yu Hong held up the water pipe and looked at everyone in the yard, and couldn't help but laugh.

In this extremely dangerous environment, being able to have an endless supply of water without having to go out for water is a huge surprise for anyone.

For a moment, everyone, whether it was Li Runshan or Zhou Xueguang, couldn't help but get close to the mist and stretched out their hands to try to touch them.

Everyone's faces showed genuine relaxation and joy.

"In addition, I have indeed solved the problem of energy. If you have any equipment that needs charging, you can come to me to charge it. After all, the sun is getting shorter and shorter. I will also connect a light bulb outside as a public lighting tool." Yu

Hong added.

"Long live the boss!!" Eisenna was the first to raise her hands and screamed.

Li Runshan and Zhou Xueguang also showed surprised smiles and raised their hands.

"Long live!!"

They also shouted and watched Nana jumping around in circles.

There is water and electricity, this is the most basic guarantee for a small stronghold!

If it was just a matter of simply surviving before, now, the security of energy and water sources has given everyone the expectation of truly living a better life.

Just as he was told, Yu Hong quickly connected a wire from the hole, hung up a light bulb, and provided lighting to the yard outside day and night through the ventilation hole of the gate.

"The light source is resistant to black disasters in the wild, but even if we use nuclear power, we should not waste energy meaninglessly. So I suggest adding a cover to the bulb, and coating the inside of the conical cover with reflective material to further reduce the lighting range.

At the same time, increase the light brightness within this range." Zhou Xueguang suggested.

It can be seen that he has many practical tips after working on the front line for so many years.

"It makes sense." Yu Hong quickly accepted it, and he and Li Runshan went to the post office, found tin foil and glue from the sundries, and then made a lampshade out of wood. The lampshade and even the supporting base were completed in less than half an hour.

.

The public electric light is hung on a five-meter-high wooden pole in the middle of the yard.

The wooden pole is as thick as a watermelon. It is not so much a pole as a small tree that Yu Hong dragged over from outside.

In the evening, a small public room for bathing was also built, and a layer of waterproof paint was applied to the surface.

This time the courtyard seemed much livelier.

Three wooden houses of different sizes are arranged in a triangle, with a light pole erected in the middle of the open space.

The bright lights gave everyone an inexplicable sense of security in the gradually dimming evening.

Gusts of cold wind blew by, and the pyroxene grass in the yard made a thin sound with the wind.

Yu Hong stood in front of the gate, looking at the scene in front of him, and felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment in his heart.

"Looking at it this way, it looks a bit like a small village." He smiled.

"Yes. The conditions in ordinary villages are far worse than ours!" Li Runshan stood aside and sighed. "In the end, there is only one thing missing, so we don't have to go out for a long time."

"You mean heating?" Yu Hong understood.

"Yes, the weather is getting colder. The current seasonal changes are completely meaningless. The temperature seems to be linked to something else." Li Runshan nodded. "Since there is nuclear power, we can use cooling water pipes to build a waste heat system

.”

"The nature of nuclear power generation requires a large amount of water to cool down the temperature. This cooling water will be heated to a very high degree and can indeed be used to keep warm." Although Yu Hong is a pseudo-researcher, he still knows these basic common sense. It is just a bit unfamiliar.

.

Hearing Li Runshan talk about it at this time gave him a sense of urgency about his knowledge reserves.

After all, he is the persona of an advanced researcher. If he doesn't know some basic common sense, people will definitely doubt how he came up with those things.

"And the defense facilities outside are still too rough." Li Runshan sighed.

"Well, I will think of a way." Yu Hong nodded.

"Then boss, since the conditions are so mature, if I meet any suitable survivors outside, can I get them to join us?" Li Runshan turned to look at him.

"There is nothing we can do at the moment. The scope of our protection is limited." Yu Hong thought for a moment and still refused.

The range that the pyroxene grass can expel is only so large. Whether the safe zone can be expanded next depends on the newly synthesized imprinted creatures.

After discussing the future development with Lao Li for a while, the two went back to rest.

Not long after, the sound of countless rustling reptiles could be heard outside the courtyard wall.

Countless black bugs passed by outside the wall one after another like a wave.

They naturally bypassed this area and were forcibly driven away by the fluorescent pyroxene grass, forming a perfect safe zone.
