Chapter 51 Hot Springs and Disasters
Mrs. Milan moved her body, turned to look at him and said, "I wake up every morning and as long as the weather is fine, I will walk around here. Are you coming?"
Ye Zhiqiu thought for a moment. He was indeed very curious about the old lady. From her conversation just now, it can be seen that she was definitely not just a little girl from Texas like she said, so it is indeed necessary to learn more about her. However, thinking of the two companions who were still sleeping in the room, he shook his head cautiously and rejected Mrs. Milan's proposal.
Madame Milan did not continue to invite him, but just tightened her shawl and said to Ye Zhiqiu: "You are a cautious person, and your companions should be proud of having friends like you."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled, watched her walk away, turned around and sat down at the place just now. It has only been more than a day since he returned to Anchorage, but so many things have happened, which makes him feel exhausted. It is rare to have the opportunity to bathe in the morning sun and quietly recall what has happened in the past few days.
To be honest, Ye Zhiqiu is not very good at dealing with these human-related matters. For him in the past, there were only two types of people around him, comrades and non-comrades. Of course, they could completely believe that those who are not comrades should be wary of it. However, since he set foot on the American continent this time, he has no comrades. The appearance of Yang Xiao and others gave him a glimmer of hope, but in the blink of an eye, this hope was shattered. Ding Feiyu seemed to be able to become his comrades, but they all knew very well that they were not the same people, which determined that they did not dare to hand over each other's backs to each other. They could cooperate, but could not trust each other. He seemed destined to fight alone.
Because of this, Jill and Nico had a special meaning to him. He met them by accident and had no interest in each other, so he always believed them more than others. However, until now, there was still a shadow that hindered their trust. He could not determine what their attitude would be when they knew their true identity. Even if he was living with Jill now, it would not be possible, because he could not talk to them as he did in the movie. Both of them were very smart. As long as he dared to assume, the other party could guess the truth, so he might only get the answer when it was time to showdown.
I don’t know how long he sat there, but he still didn’t think of a solution. He just felt a mud in his mind, so he wisely decided to give up this effort. When he came out, he forgot to bring his watch. Judging from the sun’s perspective, it should have been around six o’clock, and a faint mist appeared in the valley. Someone had already walked out of the room to prepare for a new day of life.
Oviedo walked over naked, holding a washbasin in his hand, with towels, soap and other toiletries piled up. He saw Ye Zhiqiu sitting outside the house, looking a little surprised, and greeted the foreigner, "What are you doing here?"
Ye Zhiqiu spread his hands: "Enjoy the morning sun."
"I have to say that this is a bad answer," Oviedo said. "Would I praise you guys from the city for enjoying life?"
"Whatever you want." Ye Zhiqiu said: "Where are you, what are you doing?"
"Take a bath." Oviedo said at the top of his voice. He was very wary of Ye Zhiqiu, but after rushing side by side with Ye Zhiqiu yesterday, he thought it was good to be a teammate, so he naturally became more intimate with him. He said, "Are you coming?"
"There is hot water?" Ye Zhiqiu found it difficult to understand that a guy like Oviedo would get up from bed early in the morning to take a shower. He saw that there were several empty iron cans on one side of the house, and someone was taking water to wash. No matter how you look at those people, it would be more normal.
Oviedo grinned and said, "You'll know if you come and take a look."
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and was about to refuse. The door behind him creaked open. Jill put on a coat, rubbed his eyes and stood by the door, looking at them and said, "It's so good."
Oviedo looked up at her, was shocked by Jill's lazy beauty, and said hello unnaturally. He turned his head to look elsewhere. Although he looked heroic, he acted like an otaku in front of a woman. Ye Zhiqiu stood up and walked over, kissed Jill lightly. Jill said, "Why don't you go and see? If there is hot water, I will not break it if I want to wash it."
"Did you hear our conversation?" Ye Zhiqiu said.
"I have to say it's hard not to hear it." Jill looked in a good mood, complained about Oviedo's loud voice around the corner, and then smiled and said to Ye Zhiqiu, "Go quickly, I've seen Nicole, she's very good."
Ye Zhiqiu kissed her again, took the towel she handed over, and walked away with Oviedo. Hearing the sound of closing the door behind, Oviedo said, "It's so enviable." He asked, "Did you know each other before the disaster?"
"Is there a great chance for couples to survive together?" Ye Zhiqiu asked back.
"At least, both Milan and her son survived," Oviedo said. "There are several families in the valley who survived, so I think your question should have a positive answer."
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, thought for a while and said, "I don't have that good luck." He paused for a moment and continued, "I mean, no woman was willing to follow me before the disaster."
"Ahhh." Oviedo laughed and reached out to slam the high-high with Ye Zhiqiu, a look that was deeply touching my heart: "You're right. When women saw people like us, they would just say 'Go away, you poor man who lives in the woods.'" He imitated the woman's voice and said, "Do you think someone would be willing to follow you to a place where there is no water or electricity? The stinky smell on your body can smoke a wild boar two miles away." Then he resumed his voice and said to Ye Zhiqiu: "I guess she must have not considered that there is something like fighting the wind."
Ye Zhiqiu laughed loudly, and Oviedo heard his laughter and said loudly as if he was encouraged: "So I like my life now."
"I have to say that you can enjoy life more than me." Ye Zhiqiuyan said insincerely. At least Oviedo was right. When the social system collapsed, the values were no longer the same, so people like him and Oviedo had the opportunity to stand out. It is hard to imagine that in the past society, he could achieve his current social status.
Oviedo smiled for a while, lowered his voice and said to Ye Zhiqiu, "Those two women,,," he said with thoughtful words: "Have you had sex with them?"
Ye Zhiqiu was stunned and looked at him laughingly: "Why do you think so?"
"Forget it, my friend." Oviedo said: "Although I am a bachelor, I know what women are doing. If they don't like you, how could they accompany you to such a place?"
Ye Zhiqiu looked at him with admiration. It seemed that this guy could have fallen to this point and had nothing to do with his IQ. He wanted to tell Oviedo that he actually came with Nicole.
Oviedo took his silence as his default and said constantly: "I don't know why you came out of Anchorage, but believe me, living here is no more difficult than in the city, at least you don't have to worry about zombies hiding in a corner."
"You've never seen a zombie?" Ye Zhiqiu asked in confusion when he remembered his performance yesterday.
"Do you know, prey in winter is not easy to catch." Oviedo said: "But for me, winter is actually the season of harvest, because any animal will leave traces when it comes to prey. You just need to understand the rules. And winter has one of the biggest benefits. You don't need a refrigerator, no matter how much you have." He smiled and continued: "So every winter, I will come back from the city. If I have luck, I can store a lot of things in the city and go to the city to exchange for money."
Speaking of this, he stopped, pointed to the stone wall not far away, and said, "We're here."
Ye Zhiqiu heard a faint sound of dinging the winter water, and looked along Oviedo's fingers. The fog over there seemed to be much thicker. He was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "It's a hot spring."
"It's a geyser." Oviedo said, "It doesn't always have it, but if it's there, then we're blessed." He strided forward and said, "If there are no women asking us to stop now, it means we are the first one. Don't worry about a waste of time." He smiled and said, "Of course, if there are women coming here, I won't let them go for a waste of time, as long as they don't mind my existence."
Ye Zhiqiu curled his lips. It seemed that there was a public bath here, but it sounded like sometimes you had to take the bath first. He followed Oviedo and asked, "You haven't finished talking just now."
"Ah, by the way." Oviedo said: "It snowed so heavily last year. I went to the woods to choose a Christmas tree for myself. When I came back, I found a group of people coming from the valley." He waved his hand and took Ye Zhiqiu into a shallow cave. The space here was not big, just about ten square meters. There was a small pond near the center of the cave, which was bubbling with water, and a layer of hot air was steaming on the water. The fog that Ye Zhiqiu saw outside the cave entrance was formed by them. Now Ye Zhiqiu finally understood why Oviedo came first. Four or five people jumped into the pond should not be able to turn away.
Oviedo threw the basin aside, quickly took off his shoes and trousers, and slid down with the stone beside the pond. At this time, Ye Zhiqiu realized that the water there was very shallow and had not reached Oviedo's waist. He saw him leaning against a relatively flat stone, soaking his body in the water, and breathing comfortably.
Ye Zhiqiu was not idle either. He was used to washing the public bathroom when he was in the military camp. He had no resistance to meeting strange men sincerely. He also quickly took off his clothes. Unlike Oviedo, he folded the clothes and found a dry place to put them down. Then he slid into the water like Oviedo, and then asked, "What's next?"
"Later?" Oviedo closed his eyes, leaned back, took a comfortable position, and said, "They told me that the disaster broke out."
