from my heart [last days]

The next day he actually showed up in the cafeteria before breakfast.

Zhou An took his temperature to measure his temperature, it was 37 degrees 9, the heat had not subsided completely, but Xie Congxin's expression was as usual, he couldn't see anything wrong, they had a rough breakfast together, and even asked to leave.

Whether he treats others or himself, he is always too strict. Cheng Yinshang worried: "Don't you need to rest for another day? Your fever hasn't subsided yet."

Xie Congxin raised his eyebrows, and said, "I don't need to drive, and I don't need to kill people. How does my body temperature affect everyone?"

Words can never speak to him, everyone can only pack up their things and leave.

Knowing that Fan Zheng was going to take the children to Chongcheng, he left enough supplies and said goodbye to them at the school gate.

Xie Congxin didn't say a word, went straight to sleep in the back seat, Xia Lingling was hugged by Cheng Yinshang, and said sweetly: "Uncle, I will go to Beijing to find you in the future, you have to remember, it's our agreement. "

Cheng Yinshang smiled and said hello, Liu Chao rolled his huge eyes, "Xia Lingling, are you naive? Do you believe such words?"

Xia Lingling was so angry that she wanted to hit him.

Fan Zheng opened the door for them on crutches. Pei Ze and Zhou An stepped forward to help him. Fan Zheng smiled at them and said, "Although I don't thank you for your kindness, I still thank you all."

Pei Ze didn't answer, Zhou An smiled and said, "Brother Fan, you don't have to be so polite, that's what we should do."

There is no right or wrong, everyone has only one life, Fan Zheng shook his head, looked in the direction of the rear window, and smiled at the people inside with his chapped lips.

In fact, there was a one-way film on the car window, so he couldn't see clearly from the outside, but he knew that Xie Congxin was looking at this side.

Xie Congxin didn't need the so-called thanks, but he would always remember this kindness. Fan Zheng patted Pei Ze's shoulder, and said in a solemn tone, "Protect him, and it will end."

Obviously they never said a word to Fan Zheng, but the old man had an incomparably sharp insight into some things. Pei Ze replied solemnly, "I will."

From Sandouping to Zhengzhou, you need to transfer from Hubei Line to S312 to Dengzhou, and then to Nanyang.

Driving without navigation is far more complicated than imagined. Even if Pei Ze and others are experienced and have an excellent sense of direction, the 400 kilometers to Dengzhou cannot be completed before dark.

The weapon reserves brought out from Chongcheng were more than enough for them to return to Beijing, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. The bullets were consumed too much in the power station. The next itinerary must try to avoid confrontation with zombies, unless it is necessary to supply supplies. into the city.

That night, I camped on Provincial Highway 322 a little past Shennongjia, and my dinner was still canned noodles.Fearing that Xie Congxin wouldn't be able to eat it, Peng He specially cooked the noodles a little softer, but Xie Congxin conjured up a thermos cup out of nowhere, opened it, and found a cup full of still warm white porridge.

Peng He was surprised: "We have this in the car?"

Of course there was none, Cheng Yinshang thought of his Doraemon-like pocket, and joked: "Academician Xie can do magic, right?"

Xie Congxin glanced at them coolly, didn't answer and didn't smile, of course he doesn't know magic tricks, the cup belonged to Fan Zheng, he used it for coffee that night.

When he got on the car in the morning, this old antique cup, which was older than him, was placed in the trunk of the car. It was dark green in color, with a shell that was so old that the paint was peeling off. It's hard not to recognize it.

Camping after dark, Xie Congxin was still sick, so he took out the bedding and let him sleep in the car, while the others moved out their sleeping bags and inflated them.

Pei Ze stayed with Xie Congxin until the early morning, when Peng He and Cheng Yinshang took the initiative to keep watch.Most of them work in pairs like this. In the past, when Zhang Heming was still around, Peng He might not be able to take the turn. Zhang Heming always liked to scare him that he would not grow up because of lack of awareness. Now there are only four of them left, and Peng He can only take the top position. Cheng Yinshang and Pei Ze and Zhou An took turns in a group.

Fearing that Xie Congxin would come back from burning at night, Pei Ze signaled Cheng Yinshang to watch him more. Cheng Yinshang agreed, took the thermometer in his ear, and dripped Xie Congxin's temperature every three hours.

The first half of the night was very stable until four o'clock in the morning. Cheng Yinshang carefully opened the car door to take Xie Congxin's temperature, but found that Xie Congxin was not asleep and was pressing something on his phone quickly. The dim light on the screen made his expression a bit serious .

The phone has no signal, what is he doing?Cheng Yinshang climbed into the car, "Academician Xie?"

Xie Congxin raised his head, tilted his phone screen slightly towards him, and said, "There is a signal."

After the meteorite fell, the radio signal was interfered by the magnetic field, and the entire communication system was almost paralyzed. But just like the call he made to the National Academy of Sciences on the third day of the earthquake, the interference was not completely blocked, and there was still a possibility of short-term recovery.

Xie Congxin was wrapped in a blanket and sat on a folding stool. After sending a text message to Su Shiqing, he handed the phone to Cheng Yinshang, "Contact your family. The other party may not have a signal. It is recommended to send a text message."

The others were all woken up by Cheng Yinshang, and Peng He kept watch for the first half of the night, and now he was still sleepy and yawning, waved his hands and said, "I won't post, my old man annoys me the most about finding him in my mission."

Zhou An also took out his mobile phone, and said with a smile, "It's a special situation now, let's report for safety."

Peng He said: "The captain send it for me, just tell him I'm still alive."

Needless to say, Pei Ze first reported to Kunyuanpeng that he had received Xie Congxin and was on his way back to Beijing, then sent a message to Peng He's father, simply saying "everything is fine", and finally found another number, only two words— - "Sorrow".

Cheng Yinshang also sent a message to his parents. As members of the Ministry of National Security, when they enlisted in the army, their parents were taken to the nursing home of the Capital Military Region. There is a strict security there, so there is no need to worry too much.

Returning the phone to Xie Congxin, Cheng Yinshang asked, "Does Academician Xie wait for the signal every day?"

Xie Congxin took a quick look at the sent message. The content was normal and not suspicious. He put the phone off and put it back in his pocket, and said, "It's just a coincidence. I didn't sleep much."

Of course it wasn't a coincidence, no matter how little I slept, I wouldn't get up at four o'clock.

After receiving the signal for the first time, he used to set an alarm clock at this point, wake up and wait for half an hour-solar activity will interfere with the radio waves on the earth, and the interference is the weakest before sunrise, and the radio signal can reach one day. Among them, the peak value, so there is the greatest possibility of signal during this period.

But he doesn't intend to let other people know this, maybe Zhou An, maybe Cheng Yinshang or Peng He, maybe even Pei Ze, he wants to ensure that everyone's external contact is in front of his eyes as much as possible.

After such a toss, everyone lost sleepiness, so they simply lit a fire and had breakfast.

Xie Congxin's body temperature was still hovering around 38 degrees, Zhou An said: "If the fever doesn't subside in the afternoon, it's better to hang glucose again, it's not an option to keep doing this."

Pei Ze nodded and said, "Go to Dengzhou before dark."

Xie Congxin looked sleepy, chewing dry military biscuits without saying a word, Cheng Yinshang thought he didn't want to delay the schedule, and said with relief: "I had to stop to refuel, it won't take too long."

Starting again, Xie Congxin huddled in the back seat and closed his eyes to rest.

When they arrive in Dengzhou, it is not far from Zhengzhou. With their current driving distance, it only takes one day for 300 kilometers.In other words, counting tonight's rest, it is only 48 hours away from Zhengzhou.

He didn't want to tell others about the signal he found in the early morning, and it was a kind of temptation to tell it. If Zhou An really had a problem, he should take this opportunity to contact the people behind him, and it is very likely that they will take other actions before they arrive in Zhengzhou——

He can give them time to make arrangements, but before entering the game, he has to recover from this untimely illness.

However, the sky did not go his way, and he hurried on the road in the afternoon, and the driver Peng had a wild personality. The jeep was so fast that it seemed to be drifting.

After holding back for a long time, Xie Congxin finally couldn't help it anymore, opened his eyes, "Stop the car..."

The voice was too soft and Peng He didn't hear it. Fortunately, Pei Ze noticed that his expression was not right, so he patted Peng He on the shoulder, "Stop the car."

"Ah?" Peng He took a look in the rearview mirror, "Oh."

He slammed on the brakes, and before the car stopped, Xie Congxin opened the door and fell out. He rushed to the side of the road with his eyes closed, and immediately vomited all the broken noodles and antipyretics that he had managed to eat at noon.

Everyone was startled, Zhou An quickly walked around from the other side and touched his forehead, it was much hotter than in the morning, then turned his head and said, "It's burning again, the rich merchant took out a piece of paper."

"Here we come." Cheng Yinshang took out a crumpled pack of paper from the cart, handed him to wipe his mouth, saw that he hadn't vomited cleanly, squatted on the ground and patted his back gently, and said worryingly ,"Are you ok?"

It's not good at all, Xie Congxin squatted on the ground without moving for a long time, Pei Ze also got out of the car, threw a bottle of water to Zhou An, then opened the driver's door to signal Peng He to exchange with him, said: "I'll drive, Yin Shang Go to the back and put down the front seat."

"Oh oh good." Peng He hastily changed with him, and fearing that Xie Congxin would be affected by his driving skills, he took the initiative to adjust the co-pilot's seat back to 120 degrees.

Lying down was more comfortable than sitting. Cheng Yinshang helped Xie Congxin who had vomited to get to the co-pilot, and they set off immediately without delay.Pei Ze's driving skills were much more stable than Peng He's. He started to adjust his direction when he saw a zombie [-] meters away. Xie Congxin felt a little better, lying on his side on the co-pilot, his swollen eyes opened a slit, and he looked at Pei Ze's neat profile Face.

Pei Ze noticed his gaze and didn't turn his head. He just turned the air conditioner to the minimum and said, "One hour."

He always spoke like this, the subject said that he could save everything, his tone sounded cold, and occasionally he needed the listener to guess the meaning. Xie Congxin was delayed for two seconds before realizing that he was saying that Dengzhou was still an hour away.

60 minutes was still within the tolerance range, and Xie Congxin didn't have the strength to nod, so he simply closed his eyes.
