Chapter 39 Chapter 39

Genius Eight Six

That night, Shao Sheng'an had a dream.

The dream was very dark. He saw a familiar figure walking in the dark, walking carefully against the wall. In the buildings on the side of the road, some rooms were lit up, and the light shone out of the window. The road could only be given a little brightness, so that it would not be completely black and invisible to the road. The woman was wearing a shabby military coat and lowered her head against the wall and walked quickly.

Without seeing his face clearly, Shao Sheng'an just recognized it. It was his wife Qiao Qingqing.

He had a premonition that this was what his wife said about "the previous life". Where is this the survivor base that his wife said will appear in the future?

Just as this idea came to mind, a pair of hands stretched out in the darkness. The hands were chapped and rough, and the nails were covered with black mud, which grabbed the woman vigorously.

Shao Shengan was so anxious that he couldn't move, so he could only shout for help. But he found that he couldn't make a sound, so he could only watch the hands staggering and staggering.

The woman made no noise. She even held the hand with her back, snuggled over, took out a gap kitchen knife from her pocket with the other hand, and cut off her eyes without blinking.

A hoarse scream sounded, and the woman raised her leg and kicked her, then threw the broken hand out, and her expression remained unmoved from beginning to end. She put away the kitchen knife, and continued to walk forward and soon disappeared in the alley. Shao Sheng'an followed her blankly. He saw the woman passing through the dark alley, coming to a large shanty town, and entering a narrow room. She lay down in the dark to sleep. Shao Sheng'an saw her pressing the kitchen knife under her right hand.

This dream was so real. Shao Sheng'an looked at the figure in the dark and felt a heart wobbled.

I don’t know how long it took, but the light suddenly lit outside, and this dark world finally had a little light. There are street lights in the shanty towns, and the recent street light is about a hundred meters away from the woman’s residence. The woman woke up when the light was on, and she packed her things rustlingly, and then went out. When she went out, she was still fully armed and only had her eyes exposed. There were many people traveling, and everyone walked quietly and rarely spoke. When she walked under the street light, the woman stopped to look at the street light, and her eyes were numb.

Shao Shengan finally saw her face. At this moment when he saw it clearly, he felt a heart-wrenching pain.

It was a scar-covered face, all of which were old, entrenched on the cheeks and forehead like centipedes. The woman stared at the light for a while, and she retracted her gaze until she felt her eyes blurred. She looked down at the shadows under her feet for a while before she continued to move forward.

"Qingqing" Shao Sheng'an shouted loudly and reached out to her.

There was no sound, but Qiao Qingqing stopped and turned around with a look of surprise.

But soon, all the joy on her face disappeared, and she returned to her numb and coldness. She muttered, "I heard it wrong again", turned around and continued to walk forward slowly.

"Qingqing" Shao Sheng'an chased after him, Qiao Qingqing ahead became farther and farther away, and the darkness swallowed him, and he felt unprecedented despair.

In the room, Qiao Qingqing was awakened by Shao Sheng'an's dream words. She didn't dare to wake him up. When she heard him shouting "Qingqing", she knew that Shao Sheng'an dreamed of her.

What did you dream about and how you shouted so sadly

Shao Shengan struggled to wake up and felt the warm body in his arms. He breathed rapidly and touched Qiao Qingqing's face with his hands trembling.

"Qingqing"

"It's me, you've had a nightmare"

He breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her tightly. His strength was too great. Qiao Qingqing was not very comfortable, but she didn't say it, but hugged him and gently patted his back.

"I had a nightmare," Shao Sheng'an said in a muffled voice. "I dreamed that you were walking in the dark, and I dreamed that you had scars on your face." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the person in his arms tremble and his body became stiff.

"Is it a dream?" he asked.

Qiao Qingqing said, "Why are it either a dream? Don't be scared."

"I wasn't scared, I was just sad."

"Then don't be sad, it's just a dream. Touch me, I'm not doing well now." She pulled Shao Sheng'an's hand on her face. Shao Sheng'an gently touched her twice, and then continued to hold her and "Go to sleep."

The couple didn't talk anymore, and seemed to have fallen asleep, but Qiao Qingqing knew that Shao Sheng'an couldn't sleep. I don't know how long it had been. When she was sleepy, she felt a pair of warm hands gently stroking her face like a dragonfly. Later, she fell asleep and dreamed of something in her previous life.

She was not doing well at that time, and her lack of clothing and food made her very haggard, but no matter how haggard she was, her foundation was still there. On the way to escape, she was still a "good-looking" woman. In order to protect herself, her methods became more and more ruthless. When she met someone who bullied her, she would not give up until she saw blood. She looked like she wanted to die with others, which made the men in the wandering crowd retract their claws. Her face was scratched in a fight, and the lack of medical treatment left scars on her face. She simply kept doing it and scratched her face.

But some scumbags don't look at their faces. After entering the Survivor Base, eternal night comes. Most of the time, the base is dark, and the bad guys don't care about the scars on her face. As long as they think they are a woman, there will always be black hands stretching out to drag them in the dark.

It is very difficult to survive and live with dignity. Qiao Qingqing made herself unrestrained.

But at least he is alive.

The tormenting dream has the content of the unchanging, Qiao Qingqing dreamed of her biological father Lin Mingyong. She had always known that she was an egoist, but years of loneliness made her feel a little extravagant. Maybe Lin Mingyong really wanted to be a father.

But later she realized that selfish people would only lose their bottom line more and more. In Lin Mingyong's eyes, her disfigured daughter, still has some useful value. She is not afraid of being disfigured. After all, she is a woman with a good figure. She will keep her for a while and will no longer be thin like a shabby carrot. It will be the same if she turns off the lights at night.

Such disgusting words actually came from the mouth of his biological father. When Qiao Qingqing heard those words, she decided not to forgive Lin Mingyong anymore.

In the dream, Qiao Qingqing walked to the step of killing her father again, but when the earthquake hit, what she saw was no longer scarlet and darkness after she fell. The camera changed. What she saw was home, there was a mother in the house and Sheng An.

The annoying dream finally ended, Qiao Qingqing did not dream anymore and fell asleep.

"Why is Sheng'an's eyes swollen? He didn't fall asleep last night?"

The next day, when Shao's mother saw Shao Sheng'an, she was worried and asked, "I'll cook an egg for you."

"No, it'll be fine in a while."

Qiao Qingqing came out, and Shao's mother was surprised again, "Why did Qingqing's eyes swollen?"

"Mom, I had a little insomnia last night and fell asleep later." Qiao Qingqing said.

"This is not possible. You have to boil eggs to apply your eyes. Look at your panda eyes."

Everyone got two eggs, Qiao Qingqing gave Shao Sheng'an the eyes and Shao Sheng'an the one who gave her. The couple looked at each other and found it funny.

The eggs that were applied to the eyes were also eaten by the two of them. In addition to eggs, there was also porridge for breakfast. Qiao Songzhi was best at making salty porridge. This morning, the salty porridge was made with shredded ginger, chopped vegetables, minced pork, shrimp and dried tofu. It was fresh, sweet, salty and fragrant. Qiao Qingqing drank two large bowls.

"I've thrown the garbage today on TV and say that I have to help the housework when I grow up." Shao Shengfei announced at the dinner table.

Shao's father strongly supported this and said that he took Shao Sheng away.

The garbage at home is mainly excrement and kitchen waste. The former is treated with cat litter and thrown away once a day, while the latter is temporarily stored on the terrace. Fortunately, the weather is now severely cold, and adding water to the kitchen waste can quickly freeze without any odor.

Shao's father took Shao Sheng to throw cat litter, and when he came back, he brought good news.

"I heard that it was going to build a greenhouse," Shao's father announced happily.

Shao's mother hurriedly asked where he got the news. Shao's father said that he heard on the roadside that "the city library is already under construction. I heard that the kang will burn at night, so it will not be cold anymore. Also, I heard that anti-freezing farms are needed to grow grain and vegetables."

"It's true. Now the temperature is so low, people are so uncomfortable that they can't survive. Growing vegetables can really survive."

Shao's father waved his hand, "There are experts who must have a solution, just minus fifty. In the north, the cities in the north, are not minus tens of degrees every winter. They live well, and I haven't heard of no vegetables there, so there must be a solution."

Shao's mother was convinced, "Yes, we are in the south, and we have never been so cold before, so we can't stand it. The north is cold every year, and we have passed the days. Now the water has frozen, and the several floors below have been flooded, and the ice will definitely melt in the future."

"There is also good news. At that time, people may recruit workers." Shao's father thought longingly, "I will register at that time. The government will arrange for work and will definitely pay wages. Maybe I can also book three meals a day."

"Let's see when the time comes. I'll ask when I go to elementary school to get supplies next time," said Shao Sheng'an.

In the afternoon, Qiao Qingqing was exercising in the room, and Shao Sheng'an was also doing push-ups. While resting, he sat on the floor and asked Qiao Qingqing "How to use a knife"

Shao Sheng'an's expression and tone were very serious. Qiao Qingqing remembered the scene when Shao Sheng'an went to the podium to ask the teacher for questions during class.

Seeing Qiao Qingqing stunned, Shao Sheng'an explained, "It's just that using a knife doesn't require any moves. If you encounter danger, how to take action is the most effective way like you did that day."

Qiao Qingqing came back to her senses, "You want me to teach you"

"right."

Although he had deliberately revealed some killer moves he had practiced in the survival battle in his previous life, Qiao Qingqing did not expect that after Shao Sheng'an accepted it, he decided so quickly to learn from her.

This made her feel a little timid. She stroked her hair in embarrassment, "But, all I know are all blood-seeing moves. Do you really want to learn it?"

“I want to learn.”

Qiao Qingqing took a deep breath, "Then I'll be sure again, do you really want to learn how to cut your throat from me? From what angle can you cut your hands and feet as fast as possible?"

Shao Sheng'an smiled instead, "You don't have to say it deliberately so bloody. I won't be scared. Qingqing, I really want to learn. I hate it when I use it. I don't want to encounter similar difficulties in survival methods. I don't expect blood or to take action, but I have to know that I can't wait until the critical moment to hate that I'm not prepared for nothing."

"Okay, I'll teach you."

"Then I'll trouble you, Teacher Qiao."

Qiao Qingqing couldn't help laughing, "From today to listen to the class, classmate Shao." Shao Sheng'an is a serious student. All the methods Qiao Qingqing learned by herself through hard work. The moves are not good-looking, but they are absolutely practical.

"You can first push the enemy's belly with your elbow, and then"

Suddenly, footsteps came from the stairs, and Shao Shengfei shouted loudly, "It's sprouting, Dad said it's sprouting."

Qiao Qingqing stopped.

"The cabbage he planted has sprouted really." In the living room, Shao's mother put down the dough at hand and clapped her hands to go up and look.

"Let's go and have a look together." Qiao Songzhi called Qiao Qingqing and Shao Sheng'an, "Do you two want to see?"

"look"

In the attic room, Shao's father squatted on the ground, looking at the small green buds in the basin like a little baby.

He happily turned around and introduced, "The cabbage I planted has sprouted, you can see."

The last time it suddenly cooled down, and all the vegetables grown at home froze to death overnight. At that time, Qiao Qingqing and his wife were only able to take care of their parents at home, so how could they care about these vegetables? When they woke up the next day, they all froze into ice sculptures, and Shao's father lost all his energy. But he obviously could not give up on this career. Even if his son said there was stock in the space, he was very uneasy to sit there. He always thought about continuing to plant and planting some green onions and peppers, which would add a taste.

The floor heating at home only opens for eight hours at night. He is doing experiments in his room. During the day, he wraps the basin for the experiment with plastic film. When burning the fire, he moves the coal stove in. He uses the heat of the fire to dry it, and strives to maintain the temperature in the film. Failure, try, fail, try again, and finally today he sees the seeds of cabbage germination.

The green in the washbasin illuminated everyone's eyes like hope.

"Dad is so awesome, it's sprouting." Shao Shengfei applauded happily, and the warm feedback made Shao's father happier.

"Dad's method is good. You can grow some vegetables in the other two rooms in the future." Qiao Qingqing smiled and asked how Shao's father did it. Shao's father knew everything and said everything, so he just needed to teach him step by step.

"The coal stove is simple, there is more than one at home, and it is not wasteful to use a coal stove. It can be used to boil water, dry clothes, and keep warm."

During the day, they are heated with coal stoves. The gasoline stored in Qiao Qingqing can afford to be used for 24 hours, but she never intends to do so. This is not caring for her family, but abusive. If she adapts to the temperature of 24 hours and 18 degrees Celsius at home, it will be difficult for everyone to walk out of the house and enter the cold external environment in the future.

The mental laziness is still a trivial matter, and she is afraid of physical problems. She asked her family to eat fish, lotus roots and other items caught from the flood to enhance everyone's physical fitness. Now it is impossible to turn her family into delicate flowers in the greenhouse.

Qiao Songzhi smiled and said, "The coal stove can still heat up food. This thing is really useful. The things from our ancestors are practical and will never go out of time."

So before the accurate news of the greenhouse came, Qiao Qingqing's family first planted cabbage, radish, lettuce and green onions in three rooms. There were not many plantings, and two washbasins were placed in one room for easy care.

"I sent seeds to my uncle and the others, and I don't know if they took them away when they evacuated."

Qiao Songzhi sighed, "It depends on their luck."

The knock on the door suddenly sounded outside, and the mother and daughter stopped talking. Qiao Qingqing heard Shao Sheng'an's movement to open the door. After a while, there was a quarrel outside.

"I'll go and have a look." Qiao Qingqing touched the knife.

"I'll go and have a look." Qiao Qingqing touched the knife.
