Zhong Tiyun scolded him first: "Let's not talk about whether you are professional in repairing machines or not. With your skills, who can trust you when you go there?"

Zhou Jianghai chuckled: "We practice archery every day! We must be better than the average person!"

Zhong Tiyun said, "I'm not confident in the skills of Wanwan and Xiaoyu, let alone your mediocre skills!"

Zhou Shuwan and Mu Mu couldn't help laughing.

Although Zhong Tiyun is a woman, she has some talents in archery and fighting skills, and is several times stronger than Zhou Jianghai.

The latter was clumsy, as if he had no clue, and was knocked down by Zhong Tiyun every time they fought.

With that, Zhou Shuwan went to the bathroom to take a comfortable hot bath. When he came out, dinner was already prepared and placed on the table.

Zhong Tiyun and Zhou Jianghai are discussing when to release the water.

"The property management informed us this morning that water will be delivered every three days, just like we're collecting supplies. Running water will be available in three days. It should be around noon in our area, so we'll all take out buckets, pots, and pans that can hold water and use them to store it."

"These days, the prices for water tanks and inflatable swimming pools are very high." Zhou Jianghai said the information he had found out.

Zhong Tiyun praised him, "Yes, luckily you had the foresight to buy a batch of inflatable swimming pools and put them there. Once they are inflated and spread out, they can store a lot of water."

Zhou Jianghai shook his head. "If it were in the village, it would be easy. There's plenty of open space. But now living in the city, there's no such large open space to store water. Even the weight-bearing capacity is a problem."

"An inflatable swimming pool isn't too heavy," Zhong Tiyun said. "I'm just worried there won't be enough water to put in it. I'll only have a few buckets of water and it'll be gone."

This is the current situation of water shortage.

The amount of water a cruise ship can carry is extremely limited.

A round trip every day requires a lot of gasoline. It takes three days to transport enough water to supply the water plant once.

It is conceivable that the amount distributed to each household would be pitifully small.

Zhou Shuwan sat down at the dining table and took a bite of a leek and egg bun while saying, "We have enough water at home, so we just need to stock up a little symbolically."

In front of Mu Mu, fearing that others might not be able to keep secrets, their family always vaguely mentioned the word "space".

After Mu Mu went to Jiyun Mountain last time, he had a very deep impression of the end of the world. He knew that many people died after the end of the world and everyone was hungry.

Zhong Tiyun gave Mu Mu a special crash course, telling him not to talk about the food at home when he went out, even to his loving uncle, aunt, or brother Xiaoyu, so as not to reveal a single word, so as not to arouse jealousy and make them come to steal their things.

If all the delicious food was stolen, he would have no more fruits and snacks to eat.

Even worse, if he encountered bad guys, his father, mother, and sister would be killed by them and thrown into poisonous water, turning into horrible corpses like the giants he saw on the road.

Perhaps it was this horrifying description that left Mu Mu with a psychological trauma. He was indeed very tactful when facing outsiders and never mentioned a word about the food at home.

This made Zhong Tiyun feel guilty for quite a while.

After the end of the world, there are corpses and looting, chaotic order, cruel homosexuality, and the pain of no longer having enough to eat. Children are the ones who suffer the most.

But if you think about it more deeply, if you don't tell Mu Mu the seriousness of the matter in advance, then their whole family may face a more terrible end. Compared to this, the temporary psychological trauma is nothing.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Your mother has cleaned the buckets, basins and other things in the house today, and we're just waiting to release the water the day after tomorrow." Zhou Jianghai said.

Zhou Shuwan was slightly surprised. She didn't expect her mother to be so anxious.

Their family is the one that has the least shortage of water. These days, before going out, she fills the large porcelain vat in the kitchen and the bucket in the bathroom with water, so as to never let the family run out of water.

Even so, parents are already feeling uneasy.

So, how should those who are really short of water survive?

As they were talking, the window of the living room balcony was suddenly banged on with such force and urgency that it was impossible to ignore it.

The Zhou family was shocked.

Zhou Jianghai frowned: "Who is this? Did they jump onto our window?"

The windows of old-style residential communities are all standing alone outside the building, and together with the space inside, they form a very spacious balcony.

This is the gift area.

Dad was about to go over and take a look, but Zhou Shuwan stopped him: "Dad, let me go!"

She took the bow and arrow from the shelf, and nodded to Zhou's father and Zhong's mother. The latter quickly entered combat mode, took their respective crossbows and stun batons, and protected Mu Mu to the back.

They now only eat in the dining room, and the lights in the dining room and kitchen are on.

The living room was pitch black. In order to prevent outsiders from peeping, the curtains on their balcony were always tightly drawn.

Zhou Shuwan put on the night vision goggles, carefully opened the curtains a little, and was stunned when he looked out the window.

Their windows on the sixth floor are all equipped with anti-theft nets.

At this time, the person who was hanging on the anti-theft net with difficulty and smashing the glass hard was Dong Qingqing, with disheveled hair and a terrified face.

She looked frightened and was smashing the window hard, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

But how come she became like this after not seeing her for just one day?

Zhou Shuwan looked around warily, but there was no one.

She hesitated for a moment, then took off her night vision goggles and whispered, "Dad, turn on the light."

After turning on the lights in the living room, she opened the curtains, and the Zhou family could clearly see Dong Qingqing's situation.

Zhong Tiyun was so surprised that she forgot for a moment that this person was the daughter of her enemy. She couldn't help but take a few steps forward and said hurriedly: "You, she, why is she here?"

"Sister, she's going to fall!" Mu Mu suddenly shouted.

Dong Qingqing is not a well-trained special forces soldier, but just a spoiled girl who is lazy and has no idea about farming.

She climbed over from the next window in a moment of impulsiveness, but she had already run out of strength.

When he saw the Zhou family appear, he felt relieved and the strength he had released was gone.

As soon as his hands loosened, he became shaky and was about to fall.

At the critical moment, Zhou Shuwan opened the window as quickly as possible and grabbed the other person's arm from the protective net.

Dong Qingqing could no longer care about anything else, and her sharp voice rang out, "Save me, save me..."

He grabbed Zhou Shuwan's arm and struggled hard.

Zhou Shuwan was already having trouble holding her back, and once she moved, it became even harder to hold her. He couldn't help but yell angrily, "Shut up! Don't move!"

Dong Qingqing was so frightened that she dared not move.

Zhou Jianghai also rushed over to help.

Their house was equipped with a burglar-proof net, so they could only grab the other person's arms through the gap, but they definitely couldn't pull the person in.

Zhou Jianghai was stronger than Zhou Shuwan. She looked up and down and said decisively, "Dad, you hold her. I'll go downstairs."
