Chapter 48: Enviable ways to keep warm

Maybe it was because I heard that someone was really too excited about the news of zombie meat filling my stomach, so everyone seemed a little silent along the way. Half past the afternoon, the team began to slow down, and Francisco suggested that everyone take a break.

The annoying rain is still falling, and most people's clothes are already wet. A gust of cold wind blows, and people can't help but fight cold wars. Nicole said to Francesco: "We can't stop. Once the heat loss is too much, everyone will get sick."

"But their physical strength is a problem." Francisco knew that what she said was correct, but he had no choice but to do so. In order to organize as much firepower as possible, he brought too many people, including women and elderly people. They were walking on the road from morning to now, and now they were exhausted. If they barely walked on the road, they would only slower and slower if they could barely move on.

Ye Zhiqiu hesitated for a moment. He had many ways to get a temporary resting place, but now he had no knives or engineer shovels. That was a real skillful woman who couldn't cook without rice. He looked up at the sky. The whole sky was still gray, and there was no sign of eye contact. He didn't know when the rain would fall. He raised his hand and touched the rain on his face, pointed to the forest and said, "Let's go into the forest."

"Is there any danger?" Nicole still remembered what he said just now that he didn't leave the woods, and couldn't help but remind him.

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head. At that time, he chose not to go into the woods because there was no need to take risks. Now he chose to walk in the woods because of the need. No matter what, sheltering from the woods was not a good idea, but he needed to choose a suitable place. Nicole and Francesco were right. They could not rest in the rain, but they could not continue to support themselves.

In fact, it is not suitable for sheltering from the rain in the woods. Even if the possibility of lightning strikes is completely eliminated, the layers of leaves cannot completely shelter from the rain. Especially after it has been raining for a long time like now, when walking through the trees, there will often be large bunches of water droplets falling down, which will make people unable to open their eyes.

Ye Zhiqiu left Jill to take care of Nicole, and took Jill's saber and surpassed the front to open the way. Francisco's team had good physical strength and Oviedo collected meat from the back. Most of them could no longer walk. He had to follow Ye Zhiqiu to the front, but seeing his tired appearance, Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect him to help.

Although the northern deciduous forest belt is not as complicated as the rainforest, it is still difficult to walk. Fortunately, Ye Zhiqiu was not ready to trek here. Soon he found a place with a lower branch, and quickly cleared the branches that were stretched out from the surrounding tree trunks that were closer to the ground. Francesco put his hands on his legs and stood on the side to breathe. If the ground was not too wet, he would have sat down. He looked back at the moving team behind him and asked Ye Zhiqiu, "What are you doing?"

"Temporary refuge." Ye Zhiqiu replied angrily. In his opinion, Francesco brought such a large group of people to the armed march, which was really painful. Jill's m9 saber was not suitable for chopping. Ye Zhiqiu began to miss Oviedo's hijab. There were not many people with the knife among these people, and several sharp knives were left behind to cut meat.

When Ye Zhiqiu pruned a space suitable for more than a dozen people to rest, the group of people behind had already chased after him. Until this time, Francesco did not understand how Ye Zhiqiu's temporary shelter should shelter from the rain. He even pulled down all the leaves on the branches growing horizontally on his head.

Seeing the two people who were opening the road in front of him stopping here, the entire team stopped consciously without anyone's orders. Jill helped Nicole to walk to the front. Seeing Ye Zhiqiu's busy work, he immediately understood what he was going to do. Compared to the single bunker, the rack was a little bigger. She helped Nicole walk to Ye Zhiqiu's side, put her backpack down against the tree, let Nicole sit on the backpack, and then took out Nicole's scraped raincoat and handed it to Ye Zhiqiu. Her purpose of leaving this thing was to be prepared to rest on the ground if necessary.

Seeing Ye Zhiqiu hanging his raincoat on the branches to set up a tent, Francisco finally understood his thoughts and hurried over to collect rain gear in the team, allowing everyone to sit down and rest as he imitated Nicole. Ye Zhiqiu was busy for a while before everything was done. The roof of the tent made of colorful raincoats on his head could not completely block the rain. It was basically the heavy rain outside and the light rain inside, but at least there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Nicole drank two sips of water, saw Ye Zhiqiu coming over, and whispered: "It's better to get some hot soup."

Ye Zhiqiu smiled bitterly and said, "I really don't have this." He thought to himself that Nicole wouldn't have regarded herself as a Tinker Bell, right? It also comes with a dimensional bag?

Jill took out compressed biscuits and dark chocolate from his backpack and distributed them to everyone. The rations for three people a day were given to more than ten people, which was a small piece for each person. The symbolic meaning was greater than the actual meaning.

Ye Zhiqiu was very busy and tired. Moreover, he had no interest in dealing with civilians. He went around to the top and sat next to Nicole and helped her block the cold wind. Nicole smiled at him gratefully, but couldn't help but have a cold war.

Ye Zhiqiu reached out to touch her forehead and found that her body temperature was very low, which was not a good sign. Nicole has been very busy recently and has a bad rest. When she met a wolf pack just now, she was not only drizzled with cold rain, but also frightened. Now she is very quiet, which makes Ye Zhiqiu a little worried. He took out a blanket from his backpack and wanted to put it on Nicole. He found that water was in his backpack at some point. Maybe when he threw the backpack outside the woods to challenge the bear, the blanket absorbed water and could be used as a wet towel. He hesitated for a moment and said to Nicole in a low voice: "You have to find a way to keep your body temperature."

Nicole nodded. She knew very well what she should do, but she knew it was one thing, and whether she could do it was another. For example, I also knew that she should update it, but she couldn't even guarantee five thousand words a day.

Ye Zhiqiu was anxious when he saw that Nicole was obviously in poor spirits. He took a breath, stretched out his arms and hugged Nicole, holding her in his arms.

Nicole was startled by his movements and struggled instinctively, but soon felt Ye Zhiqiu's body temperature. She snorted gently from her nose and leaned softly in Ye Zhiqiu's arms. Ye Zhiqiu felt her heart beating very hard and her face was a little hot. This was not entirely because of holding Nicole. Nicole felt his strangeness and whispered with her eyes: "Be careful that Jill castrated you."

This is exactly what Ye Zhiqiu is worried about. He never doubted Jill's ability to move, but he still couldn't give in. "We are supporting each other, and we are in a hurry to follow the power." To be honest, with Ye Zhiqiu's English ability, it was a bit difficult to express the meaning of these eight words, so he muttered for a long time, but did not explain what he wanted to express, so he had to end decisively: "I am a good person and will not take advantage of others' danger."

A smile hangs on the corner of Nicole's mouth, still with her eyes idle, and murmured softly: "Are you reminding me or reminding yourself?"

Ye Zhiqiu was speechless for a moment. Sometimes he would also wonder, if Jill had not recommended himself, would he pursue Nicole first? But no matter how he thought, there was no answer to this question. Nicole and Jill had different personalities, but they were equally attractive to him. It was difficult for him to determine which one he liked better, so every time he thought, it would end with a double flight of yy. This is of course a bit arbitrary. He sometimes had an Olympic spirit in matters.

Nicole nodded softly, curled up in Ye Zhiqiu's arms in a comfortable position, and seemed to want to sleep. I don't know if the sentence just now was intentional. She was not small. Although Ye Zhiqiu held her in her arms, she still couldn't block much area. So while hesitating whether to find something to cover her, Jill came back.

Jill just finished distributing the food, and when she came back, she saw the two of them hugging each other. She was shocked. She stood aside and didn't know what attitude to take. Ye Zhiqiu had to make a gesture to her with a thick face. Jill frowned and squatted down, reached out to put his hand on Nicole's head and tried it. The expression on her face became even more serious. She stood up and looked around, pulled Ye Zhiqiu's backpack to the other side of Nicole's body, sat on it, leaned against Nicole tightly, stretched out her arms and surrounded Nicole with Ye Zhiqiu.

Nicole's body moved for a moment, but still didn't open her eyes. Ye Zhiqiu pulled out his arm and hugged Jill. The three of them squeezed into a ball and wrapped Nicole tightly in the middle. Although this posture was a little different from what Ye Zhiqiu thought in her dream, his psychological satisfaction was similar. If he hadn't been worried about Nicole's body, he would have hoped forever.

Francesco was quite responsible and arranged everyone to sit down, so he squeezed into the rain gear. There must be no good position in the middle. He had to squat on the edge of the rain gear and try to shrink his body into the rain gear. The drizzle hit the ground at his feet, causing a burst of cold air. He couldn't help but tremble, then shrank his body back, and finally touched the legs of the person behind. So he raised his head to see how the three guests were doing, but after searching for a while, the people around him saw what he was looking for, and pointed at him, and then he saw the three people hugging under the tree.

To be honest, he was still very envious of Ye Zhiqiu's treatment. Although he was not in the middle, it was not something that every man could encounter when he was squeezed into a group with two beauties. The people around him asked softly: "What do you think they have?"

"Uh." This question made Francesco feel a little embarrassed. He glanced at the three people over there and shook his head, "What kind of relationship is it, that kind of relationship." He looked at the man and said, "You can go in a little bit more, I'm so cold."

"Don't expect me to hold you." The man said, "Although I'm very cold."

Francisco couldn't help rolling his eyes. It has to be said that keeping warm to each other is a very convenient way, but it is difficult to implement it in detail, mainly psychologically. So although many people envy Ye Zhiqiu's three methods, only those women who are learning to do are those women. They are crowded together. Although they are not as close as Ye Zhiqiu and the other two, at least they reduce heat loss. The other men had to sit tighter and feel a little warmth psychologically, and pray that their physical strength will recover faster, and fortunately, they will continue to go on the road before they freeze to death.
