Chapter 20 Leaving
Zu Li was both excited and a little regretful.
With the improvement of his strength, Zu Li has a certain degree of self-confidence. Now even if he encounters the one-eyed frog again, he has the strength to fight without taking advantage of the terrain. It is meaningless to stay here. He finally decided to leave early tomorrow morning. , to find other survivors and a way out.
After making up his mind, Zu Li couldn't continue to sleep. He lay on the sofa with his eyes open in the dark. It was already past three in the morning, and two or three hours before dawn. leave.
In the following time, although there were several corpses piled up in the living room, no corpse beast appeared.
Zu Li was not idle either. Since he couldn't sleep, he got up and found all kinds of clothes, sheets and the like from the closet. He used scissors to cut some clothes, sheets, etc. long strips of rope, and then start weaving the rope.
He had already weaved a lot of ropes before, but he felt that it was not enough. While there was still some time, he prepared to weave more ropes for use.
When the sky began to light up gradually, Zu Li had already woven a lot of ropes and piled up on the sofa, and he walked to the living room with a hammer, and began to smash the balcony window frame with the hammer.
He decided to put the raft directly into the water from the balcony window. The raft was wider, and these window frames blocked it and had to be smashed.
With Zurich's current strength, he easily smashed the obstructing window frames one by one. After confirming that the raft could pass, he stopped, returned to the bedroom, and moved the raft made of two wooden doors to the living room.
After that, he took down the last wooden door of the house, which was the bedroom door.
There were too many things he needed to take away, but the two wooden doors were too small. Zuli decided to make the raft a little bigger. The larger the area, the more stable and safer it would be on the water.
The three doors were joined together. Zu Li was still not satisfied. He opened the security door. He entered the house where a young couple once lived at the end of the corridor, and took two more wooden doors.
The five wooden doors were put together, and Zuli was satisfied. After that, he used iron nails to nail a large number of wooden boards to the five wooden doors horizontally, and then wrapped them with the ropes weaved last night to make sure that the more stable the better.
After a full hour of work, Zu Li wiped the sweat on his forehead, showing a satisfied look.
Although this raft can't be compared to a real ship, it seems to be sturdy at the moment, at least it won't fall apart easily, and if more nails or wires can be found in the future, it can continue to be reinforced.
All the nails he had collected before had been completely used.
After that, Zurich boiled a pot of boiling water, tore up the last bucket of instant noodles, added a piece of ham sausage, and soaked it in water.
He decided to have a nice breakfast, and then started to leave here.
With the excess tap water left in the basin, Zu Li brushed his teeth, washed his face and hands, wiped his body, and put on a set of clean clothes, which made himself feel much more energetic.
No one knows what will happen after this trip. Zu Li is even more unpredictable. Looking at the house where he has lived for more than a year, there is an indescribable nostalgia in his heart.
After eating instant noodles, Zu Li let out a long sigh and lifted the raft on the ground.
This raft made of five wooden doors and a large number of wooden boards is not light. Thanks to Zuli's strength now, ordinary people can't move it at all.
However, Zu Li lifted it very easily, stretched it out from the balcony, slowly moved it out, and finally pushed it, the raft slid out along the balcony, pressed onto the water outside, and splashed. splash.
Zu Li stood by the balcony, watching the raft floating on the water, looking very calm.
Zuli was very satisfied. There was a thick rope tied to the raft, which was specially prepared by Zuli. At the end of the rope were three bricks that Zuli found from the roof, which became a simple anchor.
Now pull the rope taut so that the raft is firmly against the edge of the balcony, then fasten the rope to the handle of the security door that is very close to the balcony.
After that, Zurich began to carry things.
First, there was the storage box filled with cool white openings. Zu Li carefully moved it to the balcony, and then put it on the fixed raft. The heavy storage box was put aside. The raft sank and the other end was slightly tilted. up, but the tilt is not severe.
"This storage box filled with water is not light. I didn't expect it to be slightly tilted. Fortunately, I used five wooden doors, otherwise it would be troublesome."
Zuli was very happy, and he also boarded the raft. The raft was not small, it floated horizontally, and it was very stable, which made Zuli quite satisfied. After that, he moved the storage box to the center of the raft, and then tightened it with ropes. It was entangled on the rope that was originally tied to the raft, so that the storage box was stable on the raft.
After that, Zuli did the same, and took out the travel backpacks full of things from the bedroom and living room, oil, salt, seasoning, rice, some clothes, extra ropes, and finally seeing that the raft was still empty, he liquefied the can. The gas, stove, kettle, etc. were also brought, and they were all tied tightly to the raft.
Take a decent-sized piece of wood and tie it to a clothes pole, even if it's a paddle.
As for the corpse of the one-eyed frog, because it was eaten by corpses, Zuli dared to eat it, so he could only choose to give up.
After undoing the rope tied to the anti-theft door handle, Zu Li finally took a deep look at the living room, boarded the raft, and pushed it towards the balcony.
Zuli stepped on the raft. The raft was not like a boat. It was full of things and had a relatively deep draft. The water had submerged the surface of the raft, and Zuli's shoes and socks were soon soaked.
However, there is no way to do this. After all, Zurich can't build a boat now. He has tried his best to make such a simple raft.
"Fortunately, I'm not seasick." Zu Li thought to himself, standing on the raft with a homemade oar. He hadn't rowed over the boat. He used the oar to paddle in the water, and found that the raft was only turning slowly in place. But not drifting toward his goal.
Zu Li is not impatient, but observes the pattern. After trying a few more times, with a little experience, the raft finally begins to slowly drift forward.
The first target he decided to go to was another building closest to here.
That building, like the one he lived in, had 30 floors. At this moment, only the highest floor was above the water, about 40 to 50 meters away from him.
Zu Li paddles with both hands, and he carries kitchen knives and hammers with him, and he maintains a high degree of vigilance around him.
