Time passed by, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

Located in a river valley in the Daqingshan Mountains, the vast fir forests are lush and the tall and straight trunks stand on the steep slopes. At first glance, they look like guards guarding the mountains and forests, holding up the sky above their heads high.

Just like a secret realm isolated from the world, when the whole world is being haunted by zombies, there is a trace of ease that is difficult to maintain.

On a path among the fir trees, a group of people were slowly moving, with four people, two men and two women, watching from time to time while walking, as if they were performing patrol missions.

"Hey, this life is almost fading out of your mouth!"

He yawned, and a man in his forties complained depressedly. He was carrying a shoulder pole on his shoulder, carrying two red plastic buckets in front and back. As he took his steps, the shoulder pole bounced and rolled, and several splashes of water spurted from the red buckets in front and back.

Hearing his complaints, the two women walking in front looked back at him, ignored him, and continued to patrol the surroundings.

Seeing that his words were ignored, the man stumbled and turned to Su Junwu who was following him and said, "I said Xiaowu, we haven't eaten meat for almost half a month. We eat bamboo shoots, wild vegetables, and canned food every day. This life is so bleak! When can we eat meat again!"

Seeing this, Su Junwu had to smile helplessly: "Uncle Wen, there is no way to do this. We are now in the forest farm and are short of all supplies, so we can only endure it. Besides, eggplant, potatoes and other farm crops will be ripe in the past few days, and the food will be improved by then."

"That's right, but there's still no meat!" Hou Xunwen sighed regretfully. This is fate. Who told me that I encountered the end of the zombie when my life is getting better and better? Speaking of which, I am quite lucky. Thinking about the fact that others turned into terrifying and ugly zombies from the beginning, I am at least still alive now.

Speaking of canned food, there are many other packaged foods, but these are storage-resistant materials and are easily unwilling to use them.

Everyone knows this principle, and they open a can of food every few days to taste meat, which is the maximum limit.

Especially in the past few days, with the various consumptions over the past few days, it was just a matter of time when the young man was not in contact with each other. As Hou Xunwen said, a bird was about to fade out of his mouth!

"Hey, I said Zi Yan, what did those who turned into zombies feel at that time? If there was no pain, I think it might be easier to become zombies, so as to avoid being survived like us. Not only can we not eat well but we are also worried every day."

He looked at Su Ziyan walking in front of him, and Hou Xunwen shouted jokingly.

After getting along these days, Hou Xunwen found that Su Ziyan's nature is actually very gentle and is a very easy person to get along with. She is not as fierce as she looked that day. At the beginning, the gangster who had formed her slowly faded away, and she often screamed like "Maggie Ziyan, Maggie Ziyan" like this. In a trance, she seemed to be her elder, and she looked a little "relying on her seniority".

Zhang Xiaojing turned around and frowned slightly and said, "Just be content. It's better to live than to die. If you don't help, at least you are still alive. Moreover, Ziyan has never become a zombie. How could she know what she felt at that time?"

"Haha, that's right!" Hou Xunwen was so happy in pain, but he didn't care about Zhang Xiaojing's tone at all.

"If Uncle Wen wants to become a zombie, we can open a tunnel to let you out, roar with a hula, keep those zombies on call!"

Su Ziyan glanced at Hou Xunwen, recalling what happened on the night the virus broke out in her mind. She felt really uncomfortable being infected at that time, and then she transformed in an unknown way... She herself couldn't figure it out.

He gently tapped the icicles on one side of the road with his hands, and immediately made a "dongdongdongdongdong" sound.

With a tearing sound, Su Ziyan touched a deformed icicle with her hand. When she felt her mind, a sensational cold air emerged. The icicle that had already melted and flowed water immediately seemed to be strengthened, and then became round and erect again, emitting a cold air.

"Shui!" Su Ziyan opened her mouth gently and spit out a word.

Su Junwu knew it and immediately used the plastic spoon in his hand to scoop up a scoop of water from Hou Xunwen's bucket, and then skillfully spilled it at the rows of icicles on one side.

The liquid flew in the air, drawing a long splashing band.

Su Ziyan's heart moved slightly, controlling the supernatural powers to control the flying liquids, turning them into crystal ice crystals, flying and attached to the middle of the icicles. Soon, the originally slender icicles were strengthened again, and a dense connection line similar to a spider web was formed between the icicles...

"Tsk tsk, I want to say that fortunately there is Zi Yan in our team. Look at these icicles. If they were replaced with wood, they would not know that they would have to be the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month!"

Hou Xunwen looked at the row of stretched ice belts by the road and praised him.

As early as more than ten days ago, the reinforcement of the forest farm activity area had been fully completed. After the safety was guaranteed, everyone's focus also shifted to crop cultivation and the acquisition of various resources. It happened that there was a large area of ​​farmland at the foot of the forest farm. At this time, it was the time to harvest a large number of crops such as potatoes and eggplant.

For more than 80 survivors in the forest farm, once the safety factor is solved, the source of food becomes the primary concern, so naturally they cannot be missed. In the face of objective reality, people have to risk going out to work. Fortunately, there is a relatively complete irrigation system around the farmland, which gives Su Ziyan space to play.

Icicles rose from the ground, protecting the safety of workers to a certain extent and allowing everyone to work with peace of mind.

As for the forest area, considering the exposed state of the back mountain, although it is blocked by steep mountains, people are like this, and they are prone to suspicion and still feel unsafe psychologically. So Su Ziyan also made a row of solid ice belts in the entire forest area as simple protective fortifications.

"But it's made of ice, and it needs to be reinforced regularly!"

Su Ziyan sighed. She had to do such a job every two days, and she had to walk around the entire forest area one by one. The whole process was time-consuming and laborious. It took more than two hours to complete one round, and she would be exhausted.

However, because of this, Su Ziyan's superpowers are training almost every day, and compared with half a month ago, she has made great progress. If she is asked to use the icicles she used on the stone river beach again that day, I think although she will still be tired, she will not be so tired that she doesn't even have the strength to stand.

Su Ziyan thought in her heart that with her current ability, it would be no problem to use the scale of the day twice.

"But it's strange to say that, why does it seem that the ice cubes produced by Zi Yan's superpowers are stronger and melting very slowly?"

Dangdang knocked on the icicle with his hands, and Hou Xunwen looked surprised.

The real ice cubes are particularly crispy. They may break after a few hits with an iron hammer. However, Su Ziyan used the ice cubes produced by her superpowers. They tried to find that they were extremely strong. After several hammers, they only smashed the ice chips on the surface, which seemed to be very difficult to break.

Moreover, the melting speed is also very slow. In a twenty-degree environment, it will be no problem to hold on for five or six days. Take the row of icicles on the stone river beach for example. After Su Ziyan's observation, they were not knocked down by the group of zombies until the sixth day, which shows their durability!

So to be on the safe side, Su Ziyan had to reinforce the ice belts on the mountains and in the fields every two days.

Zhang Xiaojing nodded with consent, reached out to touch the cold ice, and opened her lips slightly, "And the colors are a little different. If you look closely, these ice cubes still have a hint of light blue, which is so beautiful!"

Su Ziyan smiled and looked at the very capable female team member. Although she was not particularly beautiful, she was not as fragile as an ordinary woman. After a few days, Su Ziyan had some understanding of her and felt very satisfied.

"Ordinary ice looks white, because there are a large number of bubbles inside. After completely removing these bubbles, pure ice is obtained. Since the ice contains a large number of hydrogen bonds, the amount is about twice that of liquid water state. These hydrogen bonds have faint absorption peaks in the red light region of the spectrum. After absorbing some red light, they visually appear blue or light blue."

"It turns out that I am a cultural person. I can't understand this very hydrogen-bonded thing at all!" Hou Xunwen said with a haha, looking at Su Ziyan with a beautiful face, looking at her admiration.

Su Ziyan shook her head slightly: "Water molecules are composed of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. They are bound by chemical bonds, which is a very reliable bond. Hydrogen bonds are a force between molecules, that is, the mutual attraction between hydrogen atoms and adjacent oxygen atoms in several adjacent water molecules. Although they are not as good as the binding force within the molecule, the greater the number of hydrogen bonds, the stronger the ability to bind to each other."

"Simply put, the more hydrogen bonds, the stronger the internal stability will be!"

The biggest difference between the ice cubes produced by Su Ziyan through her superpower and the ice cubes naturally formed in nature is the internal molecular arrangement method. The special and meticulous arrangement causes a large number of hydrogen bonds to exist inside. Moreover, these hydrogen bonds do not expand the ice cubes due to the selectivity in the direction, resulting in a decrease in space utilization and a decrease in density. Instead, they are arranged very carefully. These hydrogen bonds are firmly combined, making the ice cubes extremely hard.

At the same time, because ice melts, it requires breaking hydrogen bonds, which is a process of absorbing energy. With a large number of hydrogen bonds, the energy provided by the outside world is insufficient, which delays the melting rate to a certain extent.
