Chapter 13 The Cycle of Grains

"Huh..."

The sun was blazing.

Xiao Jian was shirtless, and sweat was dripping down his forehead, shoulders, and spine. Finally, even his pants were stained with large water stains.

Fortunately, the water stains were spread from top to bottom, and they looked like traces of rain. Otherwise, if other places were wet and people saw them, it would be too embarrassing.

But fortunately, apart from the zombies, there would be no one else in the yard.

"Hey...ah!"

A stone that was bigger than a washbasin was lifted out of the pit by Xiao Jian and thrown heavily to the ground.

"Bang!"

The big stone hit the soil, making a very dull sound.

Because the stone was too heavy, it didn't even bounce twice, which looked a bit counterintuitive, as if the soil had stuck to the stone.

"Dangdang..."

Xiao Jian threw the iron pipe that served as a crowbar to the ground, jumped out of the pit, and sat cross-legged on the ground, panting.

The iron pipe that served as the crowbar was full of potholes and was obviously bent.

After finally catching his breath, Xiao Jian looked down at the pit under his feet and evaluated it. He thought it was about right.

The pit was about three meters long, less than two meters wide, and the deepest part was nearly two meters.

From the shape point of view, the pit became smaller as it went down, and the whole was in the shape of an inverted pyramid.

On the one hand, it was because the stones were more difficult to handle as they went down, and the range of the crowbar's movement became smaller and smaller. On the other hand, it was because Xiao Jian dug it this way on purpose.

If it was just quarrying, there was no need to dig such a deep pit. As for the trap... that was not the main purpose of this pit.

Its main function was to be used as a dry toilet.

You know, Xiao Jian had not defecated for two whole days.

In the past two days, Xiao Jian was always facing the crisis of life and death, and the mental pressure accumulated was extremely great.

In addition, he did not eat well and sleep well, and the continuous heavy physical labor always delayed his meals, which made his biological clock a mess... He didn't even pay attention to the problem of going to the toilet.

It was not until he started to build a wall at the location of the original bamboo fence that he saw the big pit under his feet that he thought of this problem.

Although he didn't feel like going to the toilet yet, he was not a Pixiu who could only go in and out, so he would definitely need it one day.

In addition, the space he could move in was limited to the small space of the courtyard. If he was too casual, there would soon be no place to set foot in the courtyard.

So since he had to dig stones anyway, why not dig deeper?

Xiao Jian opened the war chess perspective, took a look at the collection of sunlight value, and then calculated in his mind...

... I have been working for more than six hours without realizing it! ? When did my physical strength become so good?

With such doubts, Xiao Jian took another look at his character card.

Well, it's still 0 attack and 0 defense... It's really an illusion.

"Hu... Hu..."

Xiao Jian breathed hard, feeling that the strength in his limbs seemed to have been drained, and it took a long time before he recovered a little.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly got up and ran to the pile of debris to find a few relatively clean A4 papers, and then ran to the big pit and squatted down.

"Shasha..."

"Shasha..."

Xiao Jian rolled the A4 paper into a ball and opened it, then rolled it into a ball again in another direction and opened it again... After repeating this several times, the slightly hard A4 paper became soft and skin-friendly.

"Hmm... Huh..."

After a while of exertion, the whole person became relaxed.

This is not an illusion, after all, the weight is really reduced by almost one kilogram.

Throwing the used A4 paper directly into the pit, Xiao Jian scooped some grass ash into the pit to cover the fresh pyramid.

Without a constant supply, the smell in the air quickly dissipated.

Next, Xiao Jian buried several steel pipes horizontally on the big pit, and then laid a wooden table on the steel pipes, and pressed stones and covered the soil around the table, leaving only a pit as big as a watermelon in the center.

Such a place of reincarnation of grains with a good view is considered to be completed.

Although it is a little leaky, it has a good view!

After finishing, Xiao Jian went to get some water to wash his hands, and then he started to cook.

Although water is precious, health is more precious.

Only a healthy body can do all kinds of heavy physical work. Trapped in this small courtyard without medical care and medicine, just diarrhea can cause death...

Although diarrhea can't kill people, zombies can! When Xiao Jian is exhausted and then attacked by zombies, it will be really helpless.

In fact, from ancient times to the present, the biggest enemy of mankind in the wild has never been beasts, hunger or weather.

People are very competitive and adaptable in nature.

Disease is the biggest enemy of mankind.

Even in modern society, men, women, old and young are willing to run to the city, not because they like exhaust gas and high rent, but because big cities have better medical services and educational resources.

When human production and social relations are dismembered, the level of civilization will naturally decline rapidly.

If there were no A4 paper, shovels, crowbars and other civilizational relics, Xiao Jian might have become an Indian who scrapes the soil with a stick.

Boil water and cook rice.

With the help of the "electric" kettle, Xiao Jian is going to eat something thin today.

Rice porridge + sugar + creamer.

Wow, life is getting better.

Although creamer is just some non-dairy creamer, white sugar is really good stuff.

The sweetness quickly soothed Xiao Jian's fatigue and even made him energetic.

Iron pipes were driven into the soil, and stones were built up...

Time always flies when you are working hard.

When night fell again, unknowingly, two three-meter-long parapets had begun to take shape.

Although the spear formation behind the parapet has not yet been deployed, if the zombie dog chooses to go around, it will no longer be able to attack Xiao Jian within one round.

Looking at the fruits of his labor, Xiao Jian fell down on the sofa with satisfaction, and just looked at the bright moon in the sky with his mind empty.

For some reason, I didn't see any zombies all day today.

You must know that Xiao Jian makes a lot of noise when driving piles. Every time the hammer head of the fire ax hits the iron pipe, it will make a huge sound.

However, even so, no zombies were attracted...

This phenomenon made Xiao Jian a little anxious.

Without zombie attacks, there is no way to obtain new servant cards to enhance strength, and no way to obtain resource cards to supplement defense facilities.

But it’s not good to come too much...it’s dangerous and it’s easy to die.

"well……"

However, as soon as Xiao Jian sighed, a wolf howl sounded in his ears...

"Ouch————"

Hearing the howl of the wolf, Xiao Jian's face darkened, and he immediately got into the iron cage.
