Last night, I didn't sleep for half a night, and half of the steamed buns used as a midnight snack were also given to the little girl. Inadequate energy and torture of hunger, Li Ba was already exhausted. He carried a bamboo basket full of bricks and stones. Every step he took was extremely heavy, and his trembling thighs seemed to no longer belong to him.

"Persist, you must stick to it... It's going to start a meal soon."

The construction site is only responsible for two meals, two pieces of bran buns for lunch, and one piece is still there before the end of work. I missed the fragrant bran buns in my heart, and Li Ba kept telling himself that he must stick to it. With this big meal at noon, I believe that the afternoon work can also be supported.

Obviously, Li Ba overestimated himself. Before the end of the world, he spent all day and night and lacked exercise. His body was long exhausted and his quality was extremely poor. In the words before the end of the world, he belonged to a sub-healthy group and survived with good luck. However, his physical fitness has not improved after being tempered these days in the end of the world, but instead became worse and worse.

The scorching sun was shining on the top of his head, swallowing the hot sunshine that was destined to death. Li Ba's throat was dry and almost smoked, and beads of sweat were dripping like raindrops, and his fat face was pale.

"Just drink with saliva!"

He licked his chapped lips. The doomsday is coming, and unknown viruses spread, and most rivers and lakes are polluted. If you drink directly, most people with slightly poor physical condition will get infected with viruses and turn into zombies. Therefore, the source of water for survivors is very tight, sometimes even exceeding food.

Most of the drinking water in Xibu settlements comes from underground. Xibu is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is located in a volcanic belt. It is just an extinct volcano with no possibility of eruption and has rich underground hot springs. After simple filtration, the hot spring water can be directly consumed. Survivors living here rely on hot springs to solve the water source.

However, hot spring water is not arbitrary, and it has a certain limit. All springs are controlled by the official senior management of Xibu. The residents of the inner city have enough water for domestic use. The refugee camps outside the city only distribute one liter of water every day, which is barely enough to maintain physiological needs. As for taking a bath and washing your face, you can't even dream of it.

Originally, Li Ba would prepare a bottle of water to quench his thirst every day when he was busy for half a night last night, and only food was given to the little girl. He woke up in the morning and couldn't help but drink the water to fill his hunger, which was better than nothing.

Now, he regrets it, and the feeling of hunger and thirst makes him worse than death.

His thighs became heavier and heavier, his eyelids became dizzy, and the things in front of him began to blur. Finally, Li Ba couldn't hold on, and the person fell to the ground without moving.

The situation on the construction site soon reached Li Chao. He was in the shed and squinted his eyes and saw that the person lying on the ground was Li Ba. He smiled viciously and turned to a big man with a scar on his face beside him, and said, "Xue Lin, this fat pig wants to be lazy. You can teach him a lesson. You have a little bit of a proper way to start, and it won't be fun to kill him!"

"receive!"

The man named Xue Lin showed a cruel smile on his face, turned around and picked up the whip hanging on the wall, and strode over. At this time, the little girl who had been huddling in the corner of the wall quietly raised her head, looking at Li Ba with big eyes, showing an anxious look.

Xue Lin is not an evolutionist. With his distant relatives with a senior member of the residence, he sneaked into the city guarding troops to work. He and Li Chao were in a bad mood. At this moment, he received Li Chao's instructions and quickly came to Li Ba and cursed fiercely: "Get up quickly, don't be lazy, otherwise I will slap you to death!" Before he finished speaking, he raised his whip and whipped it.

This guy kept in mind Li Chao's instructions and took action with great caution. He aimed at Li Ba's left wrist. Even so, he was very strong. With a whip, Li Ba's back and wrist skin burst out and blood flowed.

The severe stinging made Li Ba wake up. What he saw in his eyes was bloody in his left hand and there were screams and scolding in his ears. He knew what happened without thinking about it.

Get up! I have to get up quickly! Otherwise, I would be tortured by Li Chao, the mess, and I would have to reform again. Li Ba kept reminding himself in his heart, gathering all his strength, supporting the ground with both hands, and trying to stand up.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, his pupils shrank, and his face showed a look of horror. The blood from the injured part of his left hand was sucked dry by the bracelet given by the old man last night, and nothing left.

boom--

Just when Li Ba was shocked, a huge roar came from his mind. The next moment, he found that the scenes around him disappeared and he had already arrived in a strange place.

“Where is this?”

After a brief shock and panic, Li Ba took a few deep breaths, suppressed his panic in his heart, and began to look around. The foggy here was, except for a square building that looked like a tower, there was also a piece of land in front of the tower, and no other things could be seen. And he was standing on the land in front of the tower. The land was strange, the soil was dark brown, with an area of ​​only a dozen square meters, the size of a room.

“There is water!”

In the middle of this land, there is a small stone trough containing half of the liquid inside, which is crystal clear, like a spring water. When Li Ba saw it, he immediately ran over, lay down, and his head directly into the stone trough to drink it.

He was hungry and thirsty before, which made him forget the mysterious place he was in and just wanted to have a full drink. A strange thing happened. When he was preparing to drink a big gulp of cow, he found that he could not drink it. He could only smell the spring water in the stone trough, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

Even so, it made him feel energetic.

"What a strange thing!"

After trying several times, I couldn't drink half a drop of water. The feeling was like the body was as empty as air, and I could see the spring water in the stone trough, but I couldn't touch it, and I couldn't drink it even more.

"Can't it..."

Li Ba suddenly stood up and touched his body with his right hand. As a result, his palm actually slashed through the inside of his body, like touching the air, without grasping anything.

"Are I dead and turned into a ghost..."

Li Ba was about to cry without tears. At this moment, he seemed to hear someone cursing again in his ears. Then, a severe pain came and he couldn't help but scream.

"ah--"

When Li Ba screamed, the scenery in front of him changed, the fiery breath, the dirty smell, etc. were all present at this moment. However, he was still holding the ground with his hands, with a pair of military boots in front of him, and his master was holding a whip in his hand and cursing.

"If you can't get back your fat pig, you can cut your food in half at noon!"

The shoulders were burning and scarlet blood oozed out along the broken Armani suit. Just now, Xue Lin saw the waste pretending to die and refused to get up, so he gave him another whip.

He got up all of a sudden. At this moment, Li Ba had an unbearable pain on his body, but his spirit was much better. He had a dull look on his face, and immediately seemed to wake up. He lowered his head and bowed to Xue Lin and said, "I just slid my feet, I'm not trying to be lazy. Master Xue, please forgive me..."

Xue Lin stared at him viciously, "Don't have a next time, otherwise I will kill you directly and throw it out of the city to feed the zombies!" After warning, the guy left swaying.

After Li Ba walked away, he lowered his head and looked at his left bowl, and his heart suddenly shook. The bracelet given by the old man who unfortunately passed away last night had disappeared. There was a strange tattoo on his wrist, circled like a bracelet.

What's even more strange is that the palms and wrists that were just thrust out of their skin were actually smooth and smooth without any scars. Li Ba was shocked and looked around. He stuffed his left hand into his shoulders without any trace, touched the blood in his hand, and took it out.

"Don't stand there, work quickly, or they will cause trouble for you again!"

Two survivors carried heavy burdens and quietly reminded him when they walked past Li Ba.

"Dafang, Xiaofang, thank you!"

Li Ba cast a grateful look. These two survivors are brothers. Doomsday is coming. With the escape team where Li Ba is located, they fled from Wucheng here. They have a good relationship with each other. Like Li Ba, they have no special talents and no awakening ability. They live in refugee camps outside the city and rely on hardworking to live.

Dafang Xiaofang nodded. Xiaofang quietly threw a roll of gauze and signaled Li Ba to bandage the wound. Li Ba took a few steps and wrapped his left hand around like a rice dumpling, and then wiped a handful of blood on it. Afterwards, he continued to work. It was strange that after coming out of that mysterious place, his whole spirit recovered a lot. Although he felt tired, he barely supported it.

While working, Li Ba looked at his left hand from time to time, recalling the scene he had just experienced in his mind, as if he was in a dream, he couldn't believe it. One thing he could be sure of was that the bracelet given by the old man turned into a tattoo and disappeared.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Didn't it be that... my consciousness just left the body?"

Li Ba was meticulous and thought about the whole thing while working. Based on the logic of the logic of reasoning, the bracelet given to him by the old man last night should be a treasure. Just like the fairy tale TV series played on TV, the treasure sucked his blood and then changed into a tattoo and hid it in his body, and also contained a magical space.

These are Li Ba's speculations. If you want to figure it out, you can only enter that mysterious space again. Now he still has work to do, and it is difficult to act in full view of everyone. If he becomes aware of himself, he will be dizzy and suffer from flesh and blood. It's better to wait until lunch is started.

Qiang Yu was curious and impulsive, and Li Ba began to do work. Finally, after a whistle, all the coolies on the construction site put down their work and gathered towards the shed from all directions with excitement.

Lunch, two pieces of bran buns, and half an hour to rest. This is the happiest time of every day for survivors living outside the city.

On the other side of the shed, dozens of large bamboo baskets were placed, filled with steaming bran buns. The fragrance wafted out made the coolies' eyes red. If it weren't for the full armed armed police officers and soldiers guarding them, they would have already rushed forward and snatched them up.

"Line up and come forward to collect one by one. If anyone gets half a piece, I will shoot him directly!"

Supervisor Li Chao stood on the table in the shed, shouting in an extremely arrogant manner. He seemed to enjoy the feeling of being above and giving food to the untouchables. He was in a very good mood at this moment. He accidentally saw Li Ba's head huddled in the crowd and was staring at the boy in the corner of the shed with a fierce look. Li Chao smiled coldly and directly ordered his subordinates to take six or seven pieces of bran buns and throw them on the corner of the wall.

"You fat pig wants to deal with, but I won't let you do it!"

When he saw Li Ba's expression full of astonishment, he couldn't help laughing wildly.

Li Ba inadvertently looked at Yu'er, and they all showed a knowing smile.
Chapter completed!
