母蜂的复仇

After spending so much time together, Xia Ju naturally understood Du Yue’s character. She knew that she was too lazy to find the person behind it. She did not say anything else and only nodded. “Let’s do it this way. I’ll go back to sleep first.”

After Xia Ju walked out of the RV, Du Yue suddenly remembered something. “Where is your car?”

He Xing shook his head. “It’s still in the initial stage. There’s not much progress.”

“It’s okay. Just take it slow.” The Eternal Night had just begun, and there were at least four years left before it ended. Therefore, He Xing was not in a hurry to study it. Otherwise, there would have been progress. Du Yue naturally would not rush him. The past few years of post-apocalyptic life had honed her into a slow-tempered person. If she was still as impatient as before, Du Yue would not have been able to tolerate those people outside plucking grass and digging a hole in front of her house until now.

Three days passed quickly. Zuo Mingdong, whom they had not seen for a long time, finally appeared. Seeing him, Du Yue smiled and asked, “Have you settled down over there?”

Zuo Mingdong sighed. “Not yet. We’re only halfway through. I’m here today to borrow your well-drilling equipment. The river near our camp is shallow and small. Ever since we came, we’ve been relying on the river to eat and drink, so the water level of the river is decreasing day by day.

“Although the camp is not fully built yet, we can’t delay digging the well any longer. That’s why I came to find you with the rent.”

After Zuo Mingdong finished speaking, he handed the box in his hand to He Xing. He Xing opened the lid of the carton, and the smoked chicken inside appeared in front of everyone. When Xia Ju saw the smoked chicken, she subconsciously squeezed forward. “I’ve been craving for it for a long time. I can finally eat it now!”

As soon as Xia Ju finished speaking, everyone laughed at the same time. If there was anyone here who wanted this smoked chicken the most, it would definitely be Xia Ju. In fact, there were many chicken dishes in Du Yue’s space, but people preferred fresh food. Tasting delicious food in a poor environment felt very different. That was why Xia Ju had always been thinking about Zuo Mingdong’s chicken.

He Xing handed the box to Xia Ju and said to Zuo Mingdong, “Well-drilling is more important. Let’s talk about other things when we have time. I’ll bring you to get the well-drilling equipment first.”

Du Yue and Xia Ju followed closely behind, wanting to help. The well-drilling equipment was quite heavy. He Xing and Zuo Mingdong probably could not carry it alone.

Zuo Mingdong was a little embarrassed to ask Du Yue and Xia Ju for help, but because he understood Du Yue and the other two’s personalities, he came alone every time. Now, other than the three of them, there was no one else who could help. Fortunately, it did not take long. Du Yue and the others had a bike in their yard. After carrying the well-drilling equipment up, Zuo Mingdong could ride the bike back.

Du Yue had stored the bike in her space before the apocalypse. She had never found a suitable opportunity to use it before. It was only when she arrived at the grassland that it finally came in handy. When He Xing took it out from the space, he was afraid that others would suspect him, so he specially used sandpaper and paint to make the bike look old. Now, it looked like the bike had been through many years of wind and rain, and there were many traces of use on the body. But in fact, the parts of the bike were still as good as new.

Du Yue and the other two first helped Zuo Mingdong carry the well-drilling equipment onto the bike, then sent him out of the gate. Zuo Mingdong was about to ride the bike away, but when he looked up, he saw the people squatting on the grass. He could not help but frown. “Do they come here every day to pluck the grass?”

Du Yue followed his gaze and nodded. “Yes, they do.”

“I’ve been too busy recently and forgot to come to your place. If these people bring you trouble, you must tell me. I’ll help you solve it.”

He Xing waved his hand. “It’s not that bad. Just do what you need to do.” If there’s anything, we’ll definitely tell you.”

Zuo Mingdong did not say anything more after hearing that. He rode the bike and went far away. Du Yue and the other two did not rush back to the RV. Instead, they closed the gate and stood at the gate to look outside. Zuo Mingdong rode the bike for a short distance before a group of people surrounded him. Judging from their attitude toward Zuo Mingdong, they should be his subordinates. Zuo Mingdong was probably afraid that he could not bring the equipment back by himself, so he brought them here.

However, because the three of them did not like to be disturbed, he did not bring them into their courtyard..
