MTL - Natural Disaster Apocalypse-Chapter 63

Qin Huai was holding a small crossbow, and the corridor was pitch-black. Under his intentional concealment, even Yu Zibai didn't notice that he had something in his hand. After seeing them finish the registration, he went downstairs. Qin Huai naturally didn't show it, and directly Turned around and went home.

Seeing that Mu Nan was still hiding at the door and looking out, he pushed him in: "Here to check the residents and collect supplies."

Mu Nan: "Then they are so fast, they swept down from upstairs so quickly?"

Qin Huai said: "There are many people, of course the speed is fast. One person is in charge of one household, and there are only five households on the first floor. It can be cleaned up in one go."

Mu Nan asked curiously: "Don't the people living in the camp know what they're doing? Those who originally lived here didn't come back. The rice and water in the house alone can last for a while. Isn’t it better than digging through ruins to make a living outside?”

Qin Huai: "It doesn't mean that our building didn't collapse, which means that everyone was lucky to escape. Don't forget that there are still many who have not come back from the cooling point at that time, so maybe those who closed the door, some of them can't go back. coming."

Most of the resettlement of the camp is divided into subdivisions. If the community committee is still there, the people in the community will be responsible for the survivors in their respective subdivisions. Otherwise, they will all rely on the people from the military department to manage them, so they don’t have to do anything else. There is not enough manpower just to be responsible for the survivors, because the statistics were done once when the survivors came to resettle, so it is easy to correspond to the residents of the buildings that have not yet collapsed. If the head of the household is still there, people will return Home, there are a lot of people who are sick in the camp, and they can live in their own homes, even if the water and electricity are cut off, it is better than in such a high-risk infection area.

Those who couldn't find the head of the household temporarily assigned some people who seemed to be in good health to live in. Otherwise, if people gathered together and passed on one by one, they might die in the end.

Some low-rise buildings are easier to assign. At this moment, because the military department has been managing and dispatching, even if someone sneaks into a house that has not collapsed to search for things, they dare not pretend to be the head of the household unless they are sure that the head of the household is dead. Therefore, there were not many cases of impostors or two people robbing a house, and the distribution was smooth.

When it’s the turn of the high floors, some people are willing, thinking that it’s safer to live high and away from the ground where dead bodies are piled up, but some people are not willing, thinking that the floors are too high, even if it’s 40 degrees outside, climb up the stairs and take a rest People can also slow down, but now it is more than 50 degrees, and you may die if you climb to the 20th floor, so you don't want to live there at all.

The people in the military department are not reluctant to register voluntarily. As for the heads of households who are still there, they don’t care if you go home or not, but most of them want to go back. Even if the water and electricity are cut off, home is home after all. It’s better than living outside. I haven’t been back before. On the one hand, the floor is indeed high. People haven’t recovered from the earthquake. I don’t have the strength to climb the stairs. On the other hand, I’m worried that the building will collapse. , I finally ran down desperately, in case the earthquake has not passed, it doesn’t mean that aftershocks may come again every few days, so even if there is food and water at home, I dare not go up.

But now there are more and more sick people in the entire camp. They don't know if the building will collapse, but if they continue to stay in the camp, infection may happen sooner or later.

Almost all the personnel that can be allocated have been allocated, and the camp on their side soon lost more than half of the people. After the dense survivors dispersed, the medical team finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although the number of sick people has not decreased, And it continues to increase, but without dense population gathering, the invisible pressure will be much reduced. However, the people dispersed, but the speed of the spread of the disease did not slow down. As time passed, the rancid smell from the ground became stronger and stronger. Looking at the soldiers who fell down because they touched too many corpses, The military minister in charge of their area became more and more silent. Sometimes he really wanted to burn all the ruins with a single fire, but reason stopped this crazy idea, and he could only tell himself over and over again, Persevere, and the difficulties will surely pass.

The hardships of the outside world are not spread out in front of Mu Nan's eyes. For Mu Nan, it is a long-distance matter. However, their building is indeed very lively these two days. There are many people going up and down, and some people pass by their area. When they were on the first floor, they would look around and sigh when they saw the big iron gate. It seemed that they were also thinking about finding a security door to do this for the floor they lived in, but not all the neighbors on the whole floor were easy to talk to. When there are too many people, there will be more ideas, and it may not be possible to put them together.

Listening to the movement outside, Jian Chu still sighed at home: "Fortunately, we went up and re-smoothed the walls of the two houses where the anti-theft doors were removed. After these few days, we probably did it, or else people would see the anti-theft doors. The door was demolished from the door of his own house, so he didn't want to cause trouble. Fortunately, Qin Huai remembered that those houses hadn't come back before the earthquake. It is estimated that the residents who were assigned didn't know if they had anti-theft doors. Tell me, what exactly does Qin Huai do? , How can he remember so many things, and pay special attention to these."

Yu Zibo said: "It's not surprising that capable people will always remember all aspects of life around them inadvertently."

Jian Chu rolled around on the bed, thought for a while, picked up the walkie-talkie and said to Yu Zibai: "I saw that Mu Nan's house has a lot of discs last time, if I ask him to borrow two discs, it should be fine, right?" It's just that I always feel like I'm bothering the neighbors for everything. Since we met, the neighbors are helping them, and they don't have anything in return, so I feel a little sorry.

Yu Zibai's breath was stagnant, and seeing Yu Zibai holding the walkie-talkie and looking at him with a tangled expression, he looked away unnaturally. Although it was only for a few seconds, he had been fighting with heaven and man in his mind for a long time, and finally pretended to be calm He replied: "It should be nothing."

Hearing this, Jian Chu hurriedly got up and sat down, and pressed the intercom: "Mu Nan, Mu Nan, call Mu Nan."

The other side responded quickly: "Here, what's the matter?"

Jian Chu: "Can you lend me two CDs to watch? It's boring not being able to go out and have nothing to do."

Mu Nan: "Sure, you can come and choose yourself."

Jian Chu hurriedly put on her slippers, and then walked over from the balcony.

Mu Nan took out the whole box of discs. Although he downloaded a lot of TV series, he also bought a lot of video discs. These things are very cheap to buy. No matter how long or popular TV series are, a disc costs three to five yuan. , there are both domestic and foreign ones, and this is only a small part of his space, which can be regarded as some classic ones.

Qin Huai was sitting on the bed typing on the computer, while Jian Chu and Mu Nan were sitting on the floor picking discs, seeing Qin Huai kept typing, Jian Chu curiously asked Mu Nan in a low voice, "What is your brother doing?" What can you knock, are you writing a diary?

Mu Nan said: "My brother is making a game, and he will make me a modified version of Snake."

Jian Chu was shocked immediately: "Your brother is too good, he can even play games, what else can your brother not know?" He can play games and cook, and he is smart enough to play games. There are such perfect people in the world. .

Mu Nan smiled and said: "Probably my brother can't do anything except childbirth. My brother studied this in college, but he didn't learn how to make games, but software programming. But he has audited some game production, so he understands it too." a little."

Jian Chu sincerely sighed: "It's amazing, the programmer can still maintain such a head of black and thick hair."

Jian Chu picked two discs of Hong Kong dramas, the kind with hundreds of episodes in one TV series, which can consume several days.

Seeing that he came back, Yu Zibai didn't know what he was busy with, so he didn't lean over for a long time, until Jian Chu plugged in the power cord of the laptop and put the disc into the computer, then he waved to Yu Zibai: "What are you busy with, come here together Let's see."

Yu Zibai hummed, took a deep breath, and then went to bed, feeling a little restless in his heart, suddenly: "..."

On the computer screen, the words "泡心storm" broke all his fantasies that he shouldn't have at this time.

Mu Nan stuffed a grape into his mouth. He likes summer black seedless grapes the most. Although the skin is a bit thick, the flesh is sweet and not sour at all. After sucking a grape, the grape skin is placed in a specially prepared plastic In the bag, he sighed: "The grape skins are not edible, it feels a bit wasteful."

Qin Huai: "You can eat it if you want."

Mu Nan shook her head: "I don't want to, it's too thick, it tastes astringent, just put it in the bag like this, when the bag is half full, pour a little water in it, I read online that it can be fermented for half a month, it can be used as fertilizer."

Qin Huai: "You don't need to add water, and you can use it as fertilizer if you just throw it in a soil pot."

Mu Nan asked suspiciously, "Really? Then why does it say on the Internet that it needs to be fermented for half a month?"

Qin Huai didn't understand either, and he had never farmed before, so he guessed: "Maybe we need to neutralize some substances in the peels that are not good for the soil. Anyway, the peels can be used directly as fertilizer. When I was young, I saw my aunt take the bananas you ate. The skins were chopped up and thrown into the vegetable pots as fertilizer."

Mu Nan snorted, peeled a grape and gave it to Qin Huai's mouth. After eating one, Qin Huai shook his head: "Eat it yourself, it's too sweet."

Mu Nan clicked his tongue softly: "You can't do this, you have to take in a certain amount of fruits and vegetables every day, otherwise you will be constipated."

Qin Huai patted him on the head: "I really appreciate your concern, and you are worried that I will not be constipated."

While the two were making noise on the bed, there was another knock on the iron door outside. Mu Nan quickly put all his things into the space. Qin Huai walked to the door and looked out through the peephole of the anti-theft door. It's the anti-theft door at the entrance of the stairs next door, Yu Zibai has already come out to check, Qin Huai pushed Mu Nan into the house: "Stay at home and close the door, don't come out to join in the fun." After speaking, he put on a mask and opened the door with a crossbow outside out.

Yu Zibai stood at the door, looked at the burly man outside, and asked cautiously, "What's the matter?"

The man shook the key in his hand: "I changed houses with the residents of No. 3 on your floor, please open the door."

Yu Zibai glanced at Qin Huai, Qin Huai frowned and said, "No. 3 on our floor?"

The man outside didn't have anything against them being so guarded. Although he looked fierce, he responded well to their inquiries: "Yes, the surname is Zhang. I live on the fifth floor. There is an old man in his family. If you can’t climb this high, you’ll switch with me, please open the door.”

Qin Huai nodded towards Yu Zibai, and Yu Zibai walked over to open the security door, but quickly backed away, fearing that the man would make a sudden move.

After the man came in, they saw that there was a woman behind the man. The woman reached out to move the things on the stairwell in. The man hurried over and pushed the woman away gently: "I'll come, I'll come, this thing is too heavy." Come on, stand over, don't get hot."

Judging by the way the man is caring, it should be his wife. The woman is quite handsome, with a thin body, which doesn't match the rough man's style very well. It was a few big bags wrapped in sheet cloth, which were packed up from the fifth floor and climbed to the first floor to take a rest. I don't know how long it took to carry so many things.

He piled up all the things in the corridor, and the man took the initiative to close the anti-theft door, sighing while sweating: "I didn't expect this thing to be installed on your floor. It's very good. I feel more at ease when I sleep in the middle of the night. This room It’s worth the exchange! My surname is Niu, and everyone calls me Da Niu, and we will be neighbors from now on, although I don’t know how long this dilapidated house can last, if you need help with anything, just say hello.”

Although Yu Zibai hadn't put down his guard yet, he stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person. Although he looked fierce, he spoke politely, so he replied: "Hello, my surname is Yu, and I live there. My surname is Qin. I also saw that there are anti-theft iron gates installed on both sides, just for fear that someone will touch it, stealing things is second, and for fear that sick people will come and poison them, so if you have nothing to do with the iron gates, don’t open them if you can. The situation is already like that, and we can only try to be as careful as possible.”

Daniel nodded in empathy: "That's right, that's right, don't be afraid of anything else, just be afraid that someone who is sick will come here and cough twice, and touch the doorknob twice. It is still safe to have multiple anti-theft doors. You young people really think about it!"

Seeing that this big cow doesn't seem to be a difficult person to get along with, Qin Huai turned around and entered the house. Although another family of strangers came, he couldn't keep others from coming in. He only hoped that this person could really be as easy to get along with as he met.

After returning home, Qin Huai told Mu Nan about this, and Mu Nan was a little surprised: "Change the house? Then the Zhang family will live downstairs and won't come back?"

Qin Huai said: "It should be. Is there anyone surnamed Niu on the fifth floor? I don't think I've seen one."

Mu Nan recalled it for a while, and said uncertainly: "I haven't seen it in the community group before, and it seems that I haven't come out to talk much, but in the trading group, there was a person named Three Cow Heads who talked. At that time, he seemed to want to He wants to exchange eggs with someone for water, saying that his wife is not in good health, and wants to exchange eggs for his wife’s nourishment, I don’t know if it’s him.”

Qin Huai: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not. People have already moved in. Anyway, the doors are closed, so there shouldn't be too many chances of contact. You should be careful. It might not be Jian Chu and the others who knock on the door again. Don't give it away easily." People open the door."

Mu Nan nodded, seeing that there was nothing going on outside, she lay back on the bed again, and then took out a plate of French fries from the space. When the French fries were taken out, they were still bubbling with oil. When Qin Huai fried them before, As soon as it came out of the pot, he put it in the space. He doesn't like to eat soft fries, but likes them with a little crunchy texture. He also took out a bottle of tomato sauce, which has a little spicy taste, which is better than pure tomato sauce eat.

Qin Huai came out after washing his hands, and saw him lying on his side holding a plate of French fries, eating while watching his cartoon, couldn't help but smile: "Eat less, I ate grapes just now."

Mu Nan looked down at the french fries on the plate, then looked up at Qin Huai: "You don't have to save this, in the future people will hate eating sweet potatoes and potatoes, if you want to be full but also easy to feed, there are only sweet potatoes, After all, potatoes can be grown on Mars.”

Qin Huai laughed and said, "That's a movie."

Mu Nan dipped in the dipping sauce, and fed a piece of French fries to Qin Huai's mouth: "Being able to make this kind of movie is enough to show the strong viability of potatoes. Otherwise, why wouldn't people make a movie about growing rice on Mars."

Potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, these three things will be the main food for people in the future. There is also corn, that is, millet, but this thing is not palatable, but it is very drought-tolerant. Later, it was ground into flour and mixed together to make corn cakes. He also made the staple food that people ate the most for a period of time. At least before he died, one yuan of new currency can buy a cornbread weighing half a catty. For three or five yuan, it is no problem to support a family.

Before his death, people had just survived a severe cold, and a new order was gradually being established. If the future is so cold, life can be passed slowly, but I don’t know if the future will really calm down. .

Qin Huai got on the bed, and patted Mu Nan's buttocks with one hand: "You're the only one who is unreasonable, go over, the whole bed is occupied by you."

Mu Nan hugged the French fries and moved around. She was lying horizontally instead of vertically, leaving half of the space for Qin Huai: "How can this be considered nonsense, what a convincing fact."

Qin Huai: "Nan Nan, your hair is growing again, do you want to cut it?"

Mu Nan stretched out his hand to grab it, then looked back at Qin Huai's head: "Come on, you cut it for me, and I'll cut it for you. I think I can open a shop and earn money for my craftsmanship if I cut it a few more times."

Mu Nan moved a small bench and sat by the bed, and spread a disposable tablecloth on the floor, so that the shivering hair that was cut on the floor can be gathered together, and the ones that don't fall off are scattered all over the floor and need to be swept. .

Qin Huai is also good at craftsmanship. When he cut Mu Nan's hair for the first time, the cut was as rough as a dog's. Now he can use several kinds of scissors to give him a little shape, so as not to be too short for the scalp. stubble. When Qin Huai cut it, Mu Nan took a mirror to look at it, and then asked uncertainly: "Brother, have I gained weight? Why do I feel that my face is a bit rounder?"

Qin Huai directly glanced at the person in the glasses, then reached out and poked his shoulder blade: "It's all bones where they are fat."

Mu Nan frowned: "I'm running every day, so I eat a lot. Even though I'm exercising, I eat more. Maybe it's because of this absorption that it's better. It's over, I can't eat anymore, everyone else is pale and emaciated. Yes, I am fat for nothing, and that looks too delicious.” You must know that as long as there is a disaster, there will inevitably be two-legged sheep.

Mu Nan glanced at him again. Although he was still seriously cutting his hair, he couldn't help showing a smile: "It's really delicious. It's delicious just looking at it."

Mu Nan feels that he has a physique that does not make him fat. After all, he has eaten a lot since he was a child, but he has never gained weight. In addition, he was the thinnest in his last life, because the outside environment made him unable to eat at all. This time, it may have been experienced once, and the acceptance rate is high. Maybe it is because Qin Huai is by his side. He was hungry in the house, and when he went out, he was as thin as a hemp stick, but he gained weight, and it wasn't because he wore more clothes in winter that he couldn't see it.

Qin Huai squeezed his chin and turned his face to look: "I haven't seen the sun for a while, so I'm a little pale, but I'm not fat, so don't worry, I'm really fat, the cosmetics you bought will come in handy. What kind of shadow stick, bone-shaving paste."

Mu Nan raised his chin and freed his face from Qin Huai's hands: "That's called facial repair cream, what kind of bone-cutting cream, it sounds too scary."

Qin Huai smiled sullenly: "That's right, I've watched a lot of beauty videos these days, at least I can tell what is what among the bunch of things you bought."

Facts have proved that what Qin Huai said is not wrong, it should be because he hasn't seen much sunshine at home for too long, but he is covered with white. When he is white, he seems to be a little fatter visually, Mu Nan didn't weigh too much after weighing himself. The big change, the ups and downs of a catty or two were within the normal range, Mu Nan was relieved when he saw this, he would take the initiative to lose weight when people were not full, which was too much.

Xu Ming walked down the building with a few things. There were some rice noodles and some water. These were the supplies from above. As a doctor in the medical team, he also received more cafeteria points than the average person. Some, he can’t eat all by himself, after saving some, all of them can be exchanged for food at the moment, which can allow him to eat for ten and a half months behind closed doors, plus the food he stored at home before, It's still fine for a month or so.

After finally climbing to the seventeenth floor, he found that there was an iron gate installed on his own floor, but he knew that his two neighbors did it, and they were the only ones who could do it. The thief was also an anti-infection person, raised his hand to knock, and then yelled inside. Now the world is quiet, and he can hear it in the room if he yells casually, so Yu Zibai came out quickly, and saw that it was Xu Ming , and a little surprised: "Are you coming up to rest, or are you going up and never going down again?"

Xu Ming said: "I can't go on anymore. I can deal with some traumas, but when it comes to epidemics, even if I know a little bit of medicine, it's useless."

Yu Zibai said: "That's pretty good, just come back. By the way, we have a new neighbor on this floor. The Zhang family has changed with a resident on the fifth floor. It must be the old lady of the Zhang family. It is not convenient to climb the stairs. So we changed to a lower floor."

Xu Ming smiled when he heard the words: "The Zhang family is really at a loss."

Yu Zibai: "What?"

Xu Ming said: "Soon this kind of high-rise building will be installed with solar power generation, but the elevator needs to be repaired. If the elevator is not damaged by the earthquake, it can generate electricity and use it. If it is damaged, you can only consider yourself unlucky. Now there are no parts to repair. As far as our two buildings survived intact, the damage to the elevator should not be too great. When the time comes, there will be corpses everywhere outside, and the virus will be rampant, and the most dangerous thing will be the virus that spreads through the air. What I see is the collapsed ruins, which one is safer than living on a high floor of ten or twenty floors."

Yu Zibai frowned upon hearing this: "Then the Zhang family won't come back."

Xu Ming shrugged: "If you make trouble, just make trouble, it doesn't have much to do with us."

Seeing that Xu Ming was exhausted, Yu Zibai said: "You go back first, I'll look for a wire board and look through the window of the bathroom to pull a wire for you, and I'll send you the air-conditioning fan later."

Xu Ming nodded: "Okay, I'll go back to sleep first, self-quarantine for a few days, let's contact if there is nothing else." If there is anything, there is no need to contact.
