Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Chapter 76:



Jian Chu said: "Let\'s go to the back. The front was slightly turned over yesterday, and most of them are broken."

The speed of the few people was very fast, and they walked directly to the back of the ruins with a goal. Jian Chu knew the area covered by the entire carport. Since the cars in front were still there, the ones behind might also be there.

Not seeing them after a while, Mu Nan simply sat down, and those soldiers also searched in the ruins, and there was almost no one around them in an instant. Song Jia at the side was still standing on a high place looking at the ruins, seeing Mu Nan sitting down and starting to drink water to wipe off his sweat and fan the wind, she couldn\'t help but asked, "Aren\'t you worried about them?"

Mu Nan looked up at Song Jia, and said, "Don\'t worry, at most, a group of people will fight over a car. My brother and the others are so many. I don\'t know about Xu Ming, but both Jian Chu and Yu Zibai know a little bit of kung fu." , If it really starts to fight, my brother and the others will definitely not suffer."

Song Jia looked around for a long time, but couldn\'t see where his brother was, so she had to sit down with Mu Nan, "Are you the kind of friends who have known each other for a long time?" Like them, if Qin Huai hadn\'t told him to stay here with Mu Nan, his brother wouldn\'t have left him at the same place, and they would have taken Niu Niu to rummage with things on their backs, and that would have been too slow.

Mu Nan shook his head: "No, we only got to know each other during the smog period, but we are neighbors, and we have known each other for a few years." Although this understanding is only because they know him, not because he knows them.

Song Jia sighed again: "That\'s great."

Mu Nan stretched out his hand to touch Niuniu. It is estimated that they are familiar with each other after getting along these few days. Niuniu did not resist his touch, and even slightly lowered her head to rub against his palm. Mu Nan smiled and said: "This is the first time When I saw Niu Niu, I thought it was so fierce, but now I think it is really gentle."

Song Jia also patted Niu Niu\'s head, and took out a water bowl from their cloth pockets to feed it: "Actually, big dogs are generally more docile than small dogs, but whenever a big dog bites someone, then see If it sounds like big news, it will be reported repeatedly. If you really want to count it, the puppy bites people much more than the big dog bites, but the lethality of the puppy is just the same, and the bite is only a little wound, and there is no press fee. This has caused many people who don’t own dogs to think that big dogs are fierce and out of control.”

Speaking of this, Song Jia\'s complaints were more than a little bit: "It\'s just like it\'s normal for a man to drive a car accident, but it\'s normal for a woman to drive a car accident and people will sigh and say, wow, female driver, tsk."

Mu Nan sighed: "I don\'t know when the next time I will see the news."

Hearing this, Song Jia also sighed.

There was no one here, so they sat here and waited for a long time. Except for the noisy ruins in the distance, no one came to them. It was getting darker and darker. I can\'t see anything. Mu Nan looked at his watch: "It\'s been almost two hours since they left, why is it taking so long?"

Song Jia: "If everyone has a car, it may take some time to turn over."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Nan saw someone who looked like his brother approaching from a distance. He stood up and waved over there: "Brother!"

Qin Huai rode the car to Mu Nan and stopped, and then put down the other car he was carrying. Only then did Mu Nan see that there was a basket in front of the car that Qin Huai rode back, and there were a few wooden boards in the basket .

Song Jia on the side quickly asked, "Where are my brother and the others? Have you found the car?"

Qin Huai nodded: "I found them all, but I was just wasting some time looking for wooden boards. The two-person car is not good, it is not suitable for the road, so I can only modify it for a bicycle."

Mu Nan quickly took down the wooden board: "What should I do?"

Qin Huai: "It\'s fine to use a rope or wire. Don\'t we have that kind of elastic binding rope in our bag? Go find it."

Mu Nan quickly squatted in front of their trailer, flipped through the bags with his back to Song Jia, and actually took out a bundle from the space. Although the kind of rope is very thin and has some elasticity, the rope is quite strong, and there are several bundles in one bundle. Rice, because it is elastic, can be held in one hand when coiled up, so it doesn\'t seem to take up much space.

Jian Chu and the others came back soon, saw Qin Huai binding the boards with ropes, and sighed again: "You even have ropes! Just now I was thinking, how about tearing some rags in the ruins to tie them up."

Mu Nan said: "I brought it specially, because I\'m afraid the small trailer won\'t work and needs to be bundled and packed. Wait a minute, this rope is a whole piece. Let\'s fix it first. Come one by one. If it\'s long, save a little. can be used."

The boards Jian Chu and the others were looking for were not as good as Qin Huai\'s, so they could only use the Swiss Army knife on the key to try to dismantle them. Wu Zheng and the others didn\'t need the boards, because there were also baskets in the front of the car and seats in the back. , it would be much easier to carry things on your back and put them on the seat. The front basket is a bit small for Niuniu, but as long as you squeeze it obediently and don\'t move, it will still work.

When they were trying to modify the car, the people who found the car came back one after another. Of course, those who came back in the front were lucky enough to find a transportable car, and there were still many people rummaging around the residential buildings behind. , but I couldn\'t even find one that could be repaired a little bit and barely hit the road.

When most of the people came back, their wooden planks had already been set up. Qin Huai and his team had quite a few scattered things in the trailer, just in case there was any problem with the trailer on the road, so those who packed three big backpacks, now take the backpacks When it came out, the trailer suddenly became much lighter, and it didn\'t take much trouble to tie it to the wooden board behind it.

Qin Huai put a backpack in the car basket in front of him, and carried one on his own, and put the rest in Mu Nan\'s car basket, and Mu Nan didn\'t argue with him, their backpacks looked like they had a lot of things, but they were not really heavy. The heaviest things are in the trailer.

After all the people were settled properly, they tried to ride on the ground. As long as it was not a ruin with a particularly high slope, it was still very easy in the past, but the problem now is that the tires are punctured. Now there are all kinds of construction debris on the road. If the tire is punctured, the bicycle is equivalent to a waste, because there is no replacement. As for going to the ruins to find some good tires, it is not realistic. The purpose of looking for a car is to make the road easier, so you need to prepare more One tire, that adds weight, the point is, there is no such tool.

Mu Nan saw that there were still some people who didn\'t come back because they couldn\'t find them, and asked Qin Huai, "Then how do those with cars and those without cars go? Walk for a while and wait for a while?"

Qin Huai: "There are two groups. You can see that Shi Yuanfei brought the team directly. All those who have developed a fever or had close contact with people who died of illness are behind."

Mu Nan instantly understood: "Most of the people in front can find a car, as long as there is one under the ruins, when the people behind come over, basically all the cars that can be found have been found, so when the time comes, those who have cars will leave in batches. Those who are left on foot continue to walk slowly?"

Qin Huai nodded, and Mu Nan frowned: "But is he willing to do this?"

Jian Chu smiled and said, "If you don\'t want to, what can you do? Could it be that you can grow wings and fly over there? Then you can\'t find a car, and this car wasn\'t provided by those soldiers. Who can be blamed?"

Mu Nan couldn\'t help but tsk-tsk twice. This calculation shows that the people in front of them take normal body temperature every day. Now that they have a car, they can keep a safe distance from those who are already sick or at risk of getting sick and arrive early. Destination, simply serve multiple purposes. But to be honest, it takes a bit of heart to make such a straightforward decision. Even if it is divided into two groups, some supplies and some soldiers will be left behind, but there is still the meaning of protecting healthy people and abandoning potential dangers, which is not decisive enough. People can\'t make such a decision at all, so it\'s good, they can arrive earlier, and they can relax a little bit. Along the way, let alone him, even his brother is tired and skinny, and dark.

Sure enough, those who failed to find the car had a lot of controversy about going first, and even shouted at Shi Yuanfei that you would be responsible for us when you brought us out. Those who have found the car, are happy to hurry up The people who arrived at the destination were naturally unwilling to be held back by those who needed to walk, so the two sides began to argue, Shi Yuanfei didn\'t care, and asked people to count the number of people directly. It is estimated that they would discuss it after finding the car and returning in the morning, and the logistics supplies were divided in half directly. It was determined who would stay and who would leave, so someone immediately stepped forward to appease those who needed to walk. As for those who had cars, they also directly counted the number of people and moved forward immediately.

I just got used to the soreness of walking, even though Mu Nan put thick insoles and soft sanitary napkins on the soles of my feet, I still got a lot of blisters, those blisters are still not healed, and I have to start to adapt to the soreness of cycling, okay After so many days of walking, it can be regarded as exercise, and I can still keep up with the rhythm of the large army by gritting my teeth.

But I have to say that after finding the tool, they moved forward not a little bit faster, and quickly shortened the distance to the destination, which was very exciting, and the surge of adrenaline could even shield part of the body\'s fatigue, plus The closer you are to Xihe District, the easier the road will be.

Xihe District is considered to be the junction of the third and fourth ring roads in their city. There are many universities and some vocational colleges here. Because there are many schools, if you ask for directions and ask Xihe District, some people may not know where it is, but if you ask University City, We all know this area. But because it is a bit far from the city center, especially a few years ago, there was no direct bus to the downtown area. Even though the construction has come here, the population is still not large. Even with the opening of the subway and the opening of many bus lines in recent years, it still hasn\'t become prosperous.

In fact, the number of people here has gradually increased in the past two years. The construction of some shopping malls and the construction of residential areas are increasing year by year. It is a pity that the development has not yet started, and we have encountered various natural disasters today, so this place can be regarded as a large population. It was sparse, without the collapse of houses, and even though the road surface was cracked a lot due to the earthquake, the flat and unobstructed road allowed them to move forward a lot faster.

After riding for about five or six days, they finally stepped into the area of ​​Xihe District. Mu Nan counted the time, from the start to the present, it has been a full half a month, and after that, the speed was accelerated because of having a car. I\'m afraid I have to walk for another half a month to walk on my legs.

Looking at the wasteland in front of him, or the buildings that were generally collapsed or stopped, Jian Chu couldn\'t help but said: "You don\'t really want us to build a house with bare hands?"

Yu Zibo said: "It\'s not difficult to build a house. Maybe in the place where we live in the future, we don\'t need to build too tall buildings." There are fewer people and more land, and the high-rise buildings will probably be empty even after going through such a terrible experience. After the earthquake, I believe that many people have a psychological shadow on high-rise buildings.

Shi Yuanfei looked at the map, his final destination was the base, but the military base doesn\'t know what\'s going on now, whether the left-behind personnel are still there, it\'s okay to bring ordinary people with a small number of people, but it\'s impossible to put everyone in the base, and They always want to rebuild a new city that can accommodate the survivors in the urban center, and it is impossible to let everyone stay in the epidemic-stricken area.

After weighing in his mind for a moment, Shi Yuanfei said: "Go a little further today. According to the map, there is a vocational college in front of you. If you can\'t find a suitable place for placement, go to the vocational college and take a look. Take your time with the rest. .”

Mu Nan pulled Qin Huai: "The later urban area is on the side of the Vocational College."

But the Vocational College collapsed very badly, and later it was bulldozed, and rows of low buildings were rebuilt, but that area is considered the center of the city, because the power supply and water supply facilities are complete, and they live in the city , it is said that all the people in the urban area have been vaccinated, so those who have not been vaccinated and those who newly arrived at the base are placed outside the city. After the quarantine period, they can enter the base, but only in the outer city inside the base. The people in the city are all dirty and have no family background. Some rely on labor to earn new currency and want to rent a house in the inner city, and some simply hang around in the outer city. Anyway, I don’t know how long they can live. One day is one day. Pass.

At that time, he came out of the ruined private base with people, only to know that the base on the government\'s side already had the vaccine. I just entered the foundation, and after the quarantine period, I was temporarily resettled in the outer city inside the base. I haven\'t had time to vaccinate, and I haven\'t made a good plan. After that, there will be no future.

It is also because of this that he actually does not know where the base is safe and where it was rebuilt later, because he has never entered the inner city at all, and he knows that some houses that were built before the end of the world are still there, and it is only because of There are not many tall buildings anymore, so the few tall buildings in the inner city are very conspicuous, even if you look up from the outer city, you can see them. Unfortunately, before the end of the world, those tall buildings that were already habitable were still under construction at that time.

Qin Huai nodded. He saw that this area was almost there. If it was farther away, it would really be necessary to build a house with bare hands.

When everyone rode their bicycles and got closer and closer to the Vocational College, their hearts became more and more excited. They could already see a few high-rise buildings intact from a distance, and they were not so intact, but at least There are not many high-rise buildings that can stand still. The buildings are still there, and they can at least temporarily have a resettlement place. If they really choose to rebuild here, they will not really have to build houses with bare hands.

Therefore, the route that originally planned to go to the vocational college to temporarily settle down was changed immediately, and went directly to the building. Shi Yuanfei still had a little impression of the building over there. At the beginning, he said that because a solar power station was going to be built here, some of his own The building under construction was directly converted into a solar power supply line, and it seemed that the building here was going to be used as the test site for the first batch of sunshade houses. Unfortunately, they didn\'t know where the project was going. The earthquake came too suddenly. Not too much attention has been paid to this area.

Now seeing that there are still houses that have not collapsed, they feel more relaxed. It is better to have a ready-made building than to rebuild it brick by brick.

To everyone\'s surprise, apart from a few high-rise buildings, there is also a villa area, but this villa area is not the kind of single-family house, but a single-family house about three stories high. , there are at least two or three households.

Mu Nan\'s surprise when he saw this type of house instantly cooled down: "I thought this kind of house was a single-family villa, so it\'s not."

Qin Huai: "How can this kind of community have the conditions to build single-family villas? They are either townhouses or stacked. After all, this place is still in the third ring area. If you really use the land on the third ring road to build a big villa, the rich may not be willing to buy it here. , Those who don’t have money can’t afford it.”

However, after everyone approached, they found that the door lock between the high-rise area and the villa area was open, which was obviously the kind that was pinched off. It is low buildings, some of the damaged ones collapsed due to ground cracks, and some were only damaged at the corners, but now, it seems that there are people living inside, because there are even clothes hanging on the top floors of some houses.

The number of their riders is not too many, and the integrated team is only three brigades, so the soldiers in charge of these brigades are asked to take people to the lobby of the building to settle down first. After all, the sun is about to come out, and Shi Yuanfei took A few soldiers rode their bikes, intending to check this generation a little bit, where there are already inhabited houses, and where the houses can be directly accommodated, all these must be checked. As for those who have already lived inside, of course Shi Yuanfei can\'t drive them away directly. Now that they have just arrived, they haven\'t figured out anything yet, so let\'s plan everything slowly.

Finding a place that could not be exposed to the sun but could be slightly ventilated, and spread the worn or even torn mats, Mu Nan sighed heavily and sat down to massage his legs after a day of riding.

Sitting next to him at the beginning, Jian Chu looked at the tall building opposite and the villa area faintly visible behind the tall building, and couldn\'t help but said, "Where do you think we will be placed?"

Xu Ming said: "It must be settled in the single low building first. The low floors are more convenient for repairing or reinstalling equipment. As for the tall building, if you want to settle in it, I\'m afraid you need to turn on the electricity first."

Mu Nan looked at Qin Huai: "Brother, do we want to live in the tall one or the short one?"

Qin Huai: "I prefer to live with the short ones."

Mu Nan asked softly, "Why? Isn\'t it going to snow soon?"

They don’t have to worry about the snow if they live in a high place. They can choose to live on the top floor, but they don’t know how many households there are on the top floor. Get up, so that others can’t come up, safety is guaranteed, and solar energy can be installed on the top floor, and you don’t have to worry about electricity consumption, and it’s far away from the downstairs, so you don’t have to worry about short living, dense population, and the spread of viruses. No matter how you look at it, it is best to live on the top floor.

Qin Huai said: "Don\'t worry about the snow, it\'s nothing more than snow removal. Look at the villa area, the entire terrain is higher than the high-rise area. The current sewer system is not like before. As long as it is not blocked, there is no need to worry about water accumulation. , As for the safety issue, there is not much difference between living upstairs or downstairs, and even a live anti-theft net can be installed downstairs. The convenience of living upstairs can always be achieved downstairs, but there is one thing that living upstairs cannot compare to. .”

Mu Nan asked curiously, "What?"

Qin Huai: "Flee."

Qin Huai stroked Mu Nan\'s already long hair and said, "Extremely warm and extremely cold are the climate changes we know so far, but the other climate effects brought about by this climate change are still unknown. Earthquakes will still happen. We don’t know if it will happen again. In addition to earthquakes, there are many other extreme problems, such as ice melting caused by extreme heat and sun exposure, seawater intrusion, and tsunamis caused by various problems. We don’t need to worry about these if we live inland. Yes, when those things really happen, especially when they are caught off guard, how do you live upstairs?"

"There may even be some disasters that we can\'t imagine, such as the previous smog. We never thought that the earth would be covered by such weird smog one day, so the difference between living upstairs and downstairs It’s not big, and we try our best to stay behind closed doors for safety protection, but in the event of a disaster, a tall building and a low building are the fatal difference. If the weather conditions are like this in the future, people can live smoothly, where to live It’s all the same, if not, we can at least escape immediately.”
