Chapter 20 Leaving
Zuli was both excited and a little regretful.
As his strength improves, Su Li has a certain degree of confidence. Even if he encounters the one-eyed frog again, he has the power of fighting without using the terrain. It is no longer meaningful to continue staying here. He finally decided to leave here early tomorrow morning to find other survivors and ways out.
After making up his mind, Su Li couldn't continue to fall asleep. He lay on the sofa, with his eyes open in the dark. It was already past three in the morning, and there were still two or three hours before dawn. He decided to leave immediately as soon as it dawned.
In the following time, although there were several corpses piled up in the living room, no corpse beasts appeared.
Zuli was not idle either. Since he couldn't sleep, he got up and found all kinds of clothes and bed sheets from the cabinet. Some clothes and bed sheets that he didn't plan to take away were cut into long straps with scissors, and then he began to weave ropes.
He had knitted a lot of ropes before, but he felt that it was not enough. While there was still some time, he was going to knit more ropes for later use.
When the sky began to brighten, Zuli had already weaved a large number of ropes and piled up on the sofa. He walked to the living room with a hammer and began to smash the balcony window frame with a hammer.
He decided to put the raft directly into the water from the balcony window. The raft was relatively wide and the window frames blocked it and could only smash it off.
With Zuli's current strength, he easily smashed the stumbling window frames one by one. He stopped after confirming that the raft could pass, returned to the bedroom, and moved the raft formed by two wooden doors to the living room.
Then he took down the last wooden door of the house, the bedroom door.
He had to take away too many things, but the two wooden doors were too small. Zuli decided to make the raft bigger. The larger the area, the more stable the water surface, the safer it would be.
The three doors were together, and 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 silhouette and took two more wooden doors.
The five wooden doors were together, and Zuli was satisfied. Then he used iron nails to nail a large number of wooden boards horizontally on the five wooden doors, and then wrapped them with ropes weaved last night to tie them up. It was confirmed that the more stable the better.
After a full hour of busyness, Zuli wiped the sweat beads on his forehead and showed a look of satisfaction.
Although this raft cannot be compared with a real boat, it seems to be quite solid at the moment, at least it will not fall apart easily. If more nails or wires can be found in the future, it can continue to be reinforced.
All the iron nails he collected before have been used.
Afterwards, Zuli burned a pot of boiling water, tore open the last bucket of instant noodles, added a ham sausage, and soaked it in water.
He decided to have a nice breakfast and then set off to leave.
After leaving the excess unused tap water in the basin, Zuli brushed his teeth, washed his face and hands, wiped his body, and changed into a set of clean clothes, which made him look much more energetic.
No one knew what would happen next after leaving this trip, and Su Li couldn't predict it. Looking at the house that she had lived in for more than a year, she felt a sense of indescribable nostalgia in her heart.
After eating instant noodles, Zuli let out a long breath and lifted the raft on the ground.
This raft, which consists of five wooden doors and a large number of wooden boards, is not light. Thanks to Su Li's strength now, it is impossible to move it if he is an ordinary person.
But Zuli moved it easily, stretched it out from the balcony and slowly moved it out. Finally, after pushing it, the raft slid along the balcony and pressed onto the water outside, splashing water.
Zuli stood by the balcony and looked at 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 to thicken. At the end of the rope, three bricks Zuli found from the roof became a simple anchor.
At this moment, pull the rope tightly to make the raft close to the edge of the balcony, and then fasten the rope to the handle of the security door that is very close to the balcony and tie it.
After that, Zuli began to carry things.
First, the storage box filled with cold white opens, Zuli carefully moved it to the balcony, and then placed it on the fixed raft. The heavy storage box was placed aside. The raft sank down and the other end was slightly raised, but the tilt was not serious.
"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 boarded the raft himself. The raft was not small, floating at the level, and it was indeed very stable, which made Zuli very satisfied. Then he moved the storage box to the center of the raft, and then used a rope to wrap it tightly on the rope that was originally bound to the raft, so that the storage box was stabilized on the raft.
Afterwards, Zuli did the same thing and took out travel backpacks filled with things from the bedroom and living room one after another, including oil, salt, seasonings, rice, some clothes, and extra ropes. Finally, seeing that the raft was still very empty, he brought the can of liquefied gas, stove, kettle, etc., and tied them tightly to the raft.
Take a piece of wood of the right size and tie it to a clothes rail, even if it is a paddle.
As for the corpse of the one-eyed frog, because it was eaten by a corpse beast, Zuli dared not eat it, so he had to choose to give up.
Unlocking the rope tied to the anti-theft door handle, Zu Li finally took a deep look at the living room, boarded the raft, pushed it towards the balcony, and the raft filled with things stirred up water and began to slowly leave.
Zuli stepped on the raft. The raft was not like a boat. It was filled with things and had a deeper water harvest. The water faintly flooded the surface of the raft. Zuli's shoes and socks quickly became wet.
But there is nothing we can do about this. After all, Zuli is unable to build a ship now. He has tried his best to create such a simple raft.
"Fortunately I'm not seasick." Zu Li thought to himself, standing on the raft, holding his own paddle. He had never rowed the boat and used the paddle to row in the water. He found that the raft was just turning slowly on the spot, but did not float towards his target.
Zu Li was not impatient, but observed the rules. After trying a few more times, he had some experience and finally began to slowly float forward.
The first goal he decided to go to was another building closest to here.
The building is the same as the building where he lives, with thirty floors. At this moment, only the highest floor is exposed to the water, about forty or fifty meters away from him.
Zuli rowed his paddle with his hands, and the kitchen knife and hammer were carried by him. He was highly vigilant about the surroundings.
