Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 552: Strange house

Old John's house is a bit dilapidated. It is a small wooden house built on four big trees. The cabin is about five meters above the ground, and the ladder is a three-stage folding ladder that can be stowed from above.

The people in the village seem to feel that they can sleep at ease only when they leave the ground, so they built such a suspended village.

After Benita was invited into the house, the old John was a little cautious. There was nothing to entertain the distinguished guests at home, which made old John feel very rude.

Benita saw the embarrassment of Old John and smiled kindly at the family of three:

"As your lifesaver, I feel very good to accept your warm hospitality. Thank you for taking me to visit such a characteristic suspended building."

Catalina smiled sweetly, and said: "This was created by my father himself, but unfortunately he went to heaven! I have never received a letter from him. Grandpa said it was because the postman might have become a zombie! Damn it!"

Catalina's last sentence imitated the tone of old John. A four-year-old girl imitated an old man who was about to seventy. That look was very funny. But Benita didn’t laugh, she just nodded to Old John, and then touched Catalina’s head with her hand and said, “I think God will eventually select a new postman to deliver the letter to you, but he Maybe it’s busy in the last days, so I didn’t make time to do such a thing! But waiting with hope is always a good thing. Little Catalina, you can also observe the people around you carefully and take a look. Is there a postman from heaven! I heard that the postmen there are kind-hearted, like to help others, and have the ability to protect the weak! If you meet such a person, you can follow him and ask him if he is from heaven and belongs to Letter from your father."

Catalina opened her eyes and raised her head to ask Benita, "Does he have wings? I mean, is the postman in heaven an angel?"

Benita did not answer Katerina's words, she didn't want to talk too much about heaven with this cute little girl! The world has become hell, and girls of Spanish descent do not believe that heaven really exists.

"Okay! I'm just a passer-by, and there is still a very important thing to return to my hometown, Houston! Now that I have accepted your invitation to visit here, it is not rude to want to leave!"

Old John frowned and said, "Beautiful girl! Houston is thousands of miles away. It's on the other side of this continent. It must be a crisis?"

Benita smiled and nodded, and then said: "Yes! I have to go back! At the beginning of the last days, I came to this place because I wanted to help a friend! Now two years ago, I think it will be. It’s time for me to go back! I’m going home to see if my man has come to me. He was in Eastern China before the catastrophe broke out. I don’t know if he has returned!"

Old John said with regret: "China is too far away! I hope he can come back! Beautiful lady, before you leave, let me do something for you to express my gratitude to you!"

Benita hurriedly said no, but Old John insisted. He felt that he could not accept Benita's favor in vain.

In the end, Benita thought for a long time and said: "Okay! There is really one thing you can do for me!"

Thirty minutes later, Benita took the three old John grandchildren into the courtyard wall of an abandoned residential area east of Williamsburg.

This wall is higher than the walls of other courtyards nearby, about five meters, and there are power grid lines above the wall.

The space in the courtyard is huge, with a vegetable garden behind the three connected residential houses.

As Benita led the three people, she said: "It's still safe here. There are very few zombies nearby, and because there are so many houses here, as long as you be careful, you won't be easily spotted by outsiders. In other words, if you want to turn on the lights at night, it is best to close all the curtains."

Old John asked a little strangely: "Is there any electricity available here?"

Benita smiled and nodded, and did not answer Old John's question, but just led them to continue the tour.

"This house is a warehouse with almost 60 square meters of space inside.

But it has a full 300 square meters underground warehouse, which is full of food and daily necessities. It is collected and stored by my friends and me over the past two years. It is enough for your grandparents to eat for a few years. It is fertile, and there are seeds of various crops in the warehouse. If you plant the land, then I think maybe you can survive in this place forever. "

Old John was a little shocked.

"So much food, will it not rot and spoil in the warehouse? Although spoiled food can be eaten, but if it rots"

Benita said: "Don't worry, there are refrigeration and preservation equipment inside, so the food can be stored for a long time."

Before Old John could respond, Benita took Old John to visit the other two rooms.

The equipment here is readily available, and all electrical equipment can be used, that is to say, there is electricity here.

After visiting every corner of the room, Benita finally said:

"Is it weird why these three houses are so special?

In fact, this place was originally a laboratory of ci institution. The water and electricity of this house have separate lines, the water comes from underground, and the electricity is more complicated.

There are many windmill generators within ten miles here, and the energy they harvest can be transmitted to the power distribution equipment in the room through underground pipelines.

At the top of the house, there are actually high-strength solar panels made of special materials. After they collect the energy of the sun, they will be converted into electricity into the power distribution equipment.

The construction of this house contains a lot of high-tech technologies before the end of the world, and I am not very clear because I am not a staff member of the CI organization after all.

Mr. John, since you said you want to repay me, then I'm not welcome.

I hope you can live here often, and then help me take care of the electricity in this room. I will give you some instructions, tell you some precautions, and let you know how to maintain the electrical equipment here! My request is not to let the power here be interrupted, to keep it in a state of power all the time. If you can help me do this, it will be a great help! "

When Old John saw Benita's solemn expression, he nodded in agreement after considering it slightly.

After all, there is so much food here, which is a huge wealth for people in the last days.

But why did Benita let him take care of the electricity here? What is the so-called CI organization?

Benita saw that Old John agreed and was very grateful, and said, "Thank you so much! Hey, we originally had three people here, me and two ci staff. But some time ago, there was an accident that caused it. Both ci staff members are dead! But don’t worry, the accident has been resolved, and there should be no similar dangers happening here."

The little boy Jax seemed to like Benita very much, and while holding a small fist, he said, "Benita, don't worry! I will help you guard this place with my grandpa! Because I will grow up soon. , From a child to a man with eight pack abs!"

Not to be outdone, Katerina shouted: "Well! I will help protect this place too!"

Benita smiled happily, she liked the two children more and more.

Old John obviously considered more, he asked the most critical question.

"Beautiful lady, I am willing to do this for you, and I don't want to know why we do it. But how long do we need to guard here?"

The expression on Benita's face became dim, and she thought for a while before she said:

"Well, it depends on what you mean! It's best to protect it for a few years, but you can always abandon this place if you encounter danger.

Because I, who was supposed to guard this place, have already planned to leave, I can't selfishly let you stay here instead of me.

Hey, there are actually no secrets. This is just a matter of a Chinese friend who has a very good relationship getting rid of me. It's a pity that I couldn't help her in any way"

Old John didn't understand what Benita said, but when he saw that Benita seemed to be in a bad mood, he hurriedly interrupted her and said, "Yeah! Beautiful lady, you don't need to explain too much to me. Since You saved the lives of our grandparents, and we deserve to repay you! Don’t worry, as long as it’s not a crisis to the lives of my two children, Old John will stay here until death. Then, will you come back? "

Benita nodded gratefully, and then said: "Maybe I will come back, or maybe I won't. After returning to Houston, if my man has not been to me, I can only understand that he has become a zombie in the last days or It's dead. At that time, I should start my new life! Although the end times seem to never stop, we who are still alive still have to live, right?"

Old John nodded and agreed with Benita.

Next, Benita took the three old John's grandsons around the front and back of the house a few times, and told the old John all the methods of using and repairing all the equipment.

After doing all this, Benita said goodbye and left.

The sun has risen, and Old John is holding the hands of Jax and Catalina, standing in the yard looking at the house in front of him, full of curiosity, wondering what secret it hides. But it didn't take much time before this curiosity was replaced by other emotions.

"Let's go, two little guys, go with my grandfather to see the beautiful Benita, how much food has been prepared for us! I hope there is whiskey in it, haha!
