028 External Information

Today's goal is to break down the door! Oak's side is not in a hurry and practices slowly.

In the past, Wang Qi did not take the initiative to enter residential buildings to collect supplies. On the one hand, the reptiles were too active before winter, but also because there was too much noise when breaking doors, and the tools were not in hand, which consumed a lot of physical energy.

Now that we have basically figured out the surrounding situation and confirmed that there are no crawlers outside, we happen to have a door-breaking hammer from the police station at hand, so the residential building is no longer useless.

The relatively small area of ​​​​residential buildings means that the defensive area is smaller and easier to defend. The materials in residential buildings should be consumed first.

However, based on the intelligence that has been collected, such as the relative abundance of materials around the gymnasium, it is judged that the level of looting in the south direction is low, and a building originally intended to be an outpost has traces of military rescue operations.

It is further speculated that the monster swept in from the south at that time, and the city carried out emergency mobilization and evacuation. Considering that there are still survivors, the scale of subsequent rescue should be relatively limited, mainly relying on helicopters, and perhaps a convoy was involved, but no relevant findings have been found.

The wreckage of a military vehicle.

A large number of residential houses were locked normally during the evacuation. Even if the survivors mastered certain lock-picking skills, there would still be many security doors that could not be opened. Generally, thicker security doors would not be forcibly broken open if they had a choice.

In short, there is an opportunity for Wang Qi here.

In order to cooperate with the demolition operations in the next few days, today's attributes are added to [Torno → Organ Earthquake Resistance 31].

The reason is that even if the building body of a residential building remains intact, structural defects caused by non-standard interior decoration will have a higher probability of partial collapse than a commercial building over time when demolition operations are carried out. What's more, residential buildings do not have dark glass curtain walls.

Protection, the growth of vegetation caused by wind and sunshine will cause greater damage to the exterior wall structure, and the actual rate of dangerous buildings is very high.

Add attributes and drag the sled out with various tools and weapons.

Taking into account Li Xiang's mental state and preventing her from being frightened by the impact, we decided to start from a little further away.

Go to an area close to the bookstore and find a building with a better appearance to start construction on.

In order to reduce wasted effort, he specially selected the unit door that was fully locked and opened it directly.

The non-solid sliding door breaking hammer is not designed to dismantle the entire door, and its weight does not allow it. It is mainly used to break the lock. The specially designed hammering method can quickly destroy the lock.

"Clang, bang, bang" three times, the door lock of the unit was smashed. When the door was opened, the latch fell out of the crooked lock.

Easy to use!

Collect supplies starting from the bottom, because the closer to the bottom, the closer to the reptile activity area, and anti-theft windows and other structures can better protect the supplies from being scraped away by survivors.

Still the same, as long as the lock and door frame are intact, they will be smashed.

The results were almost immediate.

A jar of salt has been opened and placed in a spice jar. There are other spices as well, but they are all discolored and the sugar is not found. It may have been invaded by survivors, or the original residents may have been staunchly salty.

Wang Qi picked out the pots and pans. He didn’t want the plastic ones. He only looked at stainless steel, glass and porcelain and selected some that he would use.

Use a wall-breaking machine, smash it directly with a crowbar, and take out the circuit part and motor inside.

There is no need to replenish clothing, but dark clothing that is well-preserved and made of easy-to-clean fabrics can be taken away. There is basically no need to look at the first and second floors, but Wang Qi still took a look. The musty smell rushed out before the wardrobe was opened.

The musty smell can't be covered at such a low temperature, so you can imagine what kind of mess it is inside.

While rummaging around, I accidentally found a tool box, a hot-melt glue gun that was no longer in use, and the glue sticks were all mushy. Two screwdrivers, one of which was a test pen, and a small multimeter with only current and voltage testing capabilities, which was just right.

It can solve Wang Qi's need to check the integrity of the car battery and circuit.

After collecting almost all of them, I packed a pack and put it outside the door, and then went straight to the second house.

Then there are the second floor, the third floor, and the fourth floor.

As expected, those on the first and second floors with anti-theft windows will still have some useful materials left even if they are visited. However, the low floors are affected by moisture and the materials are in poor condition. On the third floor and above, besides prying the door, you can still climb

On the window sill, there is an extra line to enter the house, which has caused them to suffer many rounds of looting, often leaving only furniture, bedding and other items that are difficult to carry.

While I was working on my physical fitness and returning to the base for a rest, I met Xiao Li who wanted to burn firewood in the underground garage. He chatted a few words that no one could understand and did not interact with him any more.

After resting, we set off again and spent the whole night sweeping the entire building.

There are tools, tableware, clothing, and salt. There are no surprises. Except for multimeters and test pens, the tools are all repeated types in the base, such as wrenches and screwdrivers.

He was not disappointed. Wang Qi went there just for the salt and tableware, and whatever he picked up was for free.

I got about three kilograms of salt in one night. Five grams a day is enough for twenty months. If you are pickling meat and vegetables, you have to calculate it separately.

In the tableware section, there are pots and pans, and a message is also included.

Before the disaster, people's lifestyle was a bit hodgepodge. Almost all kitchens with relatively complete kitchens had knives, forks and chopsticks, and almost 60% of households had both ovens and steamers.

Perhaps it can be explained that after the instrumentalization of faith, the cultural barriers between regions have been reduced a lot. The possibility that the residents in that building are all immigrants cannot be ruled out.

Speaking of ovens and steamers, Wang Qi also brought them back.

Before dawn, Wang Qi dismantled the oven, took out the heating tube, high-temperature-resistant components, and fan, and added the oven body to the pile of debris blocking the floor-to-ceiling windows facing the street on the first floor.

There is no power now and the things cannot be used, but it does not prevent him from stocking up first. After all, he was a hamster party when playing games in his previous life. It is normal for the insecure Doomsday to stock up on things that may be used in the future.

The morning light appears in the sky, I wash my hands and continue reading.

After a period of research, Wang Qi has figured out the rules of the vowels and some root words of this language. However, he lacks phonetic data, arranges the pronunciation randomly, and is worried that it will hinder his later colloquialism, so he cannot "read" and can only read.

Memory efficiency is really low.

If I continue at this pace, I should be able to hold a dictionary and read books in another month.

Study for a while and sleep.

When I wake up at night, it's still the same routine, and the action is stuck in the patrol outside the building.

There were signs of someone passing by outside the west gate of the compound, and there was also snow and writing on the corner of the building opposite the door.

Wang Qi first checked the traces.

From south to north, one person was dragging the sled, but there were two people's footprints on the snow pile for writing. I remembered the two people who led Li Xiang out a few days ago. The size of the sled could match the number of people.

There are...a lot of words. How can these two guys be so self-righteous that they think everyone else can read? Wang Qi went upstairs to bring down the dictionary and lit a torch made of rags.

He can't even look it up in a dictionary at his current level, because he still doesn't know many basic words. These basic words mainly rely on reading pictures in children's books to determine their meaning. However, he has memorized hundreds of words, and even guessing from the dictionary

, which can probably be interpreted a little bit.

It took some effort to decipher the key words, four days later, in the evening, transaction.

The time after four days is a bit vague. Is it the fourth day or the fifth day and random days after that?

Fortunately, Wang Qi had observed the moon phases. He remembered that after three midnights, the next night would be a full moon day. He had previously judged that the survivors might have night blindness caused by malnutrition. The moonlight illumination on the full moon night was relatively high, which may have affected the survival of the survivors.

Are they friendlier?

Fortunately, the other party didn't write the date directly, otherwise he would be blinded. He doesn't even know what calendar they use.

trade?

What are they trading for?

Tools, food, and information are probably inseparable from these three types.

As long as the survivors have a dozen or even two less, they should be able to cultivate craftsmen. The larger the group, there will even be blacksmiths, so they probably don't lack basic tools. Even if the alloy tools before the disaster are of better quality, the functions are repeated.

The transaction value is also relatively limited.

It cannot be ruled out that all the craftsmen are dead, or that the survivor team cannot find a craftsman who is still alive and offers a suitable price to trade with.

You can prepare some extra tools that you won’t need.

Regarding food, Wang Qi is more confident in this aspect.

Because his attributes are growing, it will be easier and easier for him to obtain food before the entire reptile group dies.

But the two survivors looked sallow and thin, so they thought they would be relatively nervous about food, so they should be able to exchange food for some of the things they need.

The other party agreed on a deal and didn't mark the location. They would probably come directly to the door. There are only so many things that can be brought in the snow. Putting aside the odds and ends, they should bring a map, a prop with obvious intelligence value. Find a way to get it in exchange.

There is also the issue of their own safety. What if they think they are easy to bully and suddenly want to kill someone to seize the treasure?
