Just when Lu Yu was about to calm down and think about his next plan, a miserable howl came from the window, breaking the tranquility in the room.
Looking at each other with Xiao Ran, Lu Yu quickly walked to the window and opened a corner of the curtain.
On the originally empty street, two figures suddenly appeared running wildly. Behind them were three or five zombies with incomplete limbs, trying to tear into pieces and eat the prey in front of them.
The two men who were running wildly in front would look back from time to time to check on the pursuers. Lu Yu found that although the expressions on their faces were extremely frightened, they did not make any sound. Obviously, the screams just now were not made by them, but by someone else. There are people.
"I didn't expect that there were survivors around the community. Why didn't they come out when Ma Long evacuated..."
Xiao Ran put his head on Lu Yu's chin, and blinked a few times with his beautiful mandarin duck eyes.
"Probably because I didn't understand the situation before, I didn't dare to come out of the safe shelter easily... But now the situation outside is obviously more dangerous. Why did these people take the risk and run out..."
Their eyes followed the two chasing people backwards, and Lu Yu and Xiao Ran quickly found the source of the screams.
It was a thin man, whose body had been torn to pieces by two zombies. The pieces of flesh were mixed with blood and scattered on the ground, creating a terrifying scene.
It seems that this thin man was accidentally chased by zombies while escaping, and was then ruthlessly abandoned by his companions.
"It's really cold-blooded..."
Looking at the two people running wildly in front, Lu Yu's face was not anxious or worried. On the contrary, there was a hint of idly watching.
He is not a holy mother who would want to help someone when he sees someone in trouble.
The reason why Xu Xiaoxiao was admitted before was because the other party came to the door, and Lu Yu wanted to experiment with aspirin's therapeutic effect on viruses, so he was included in his team.
Later, it was Zhang Jike and Ma Long's intention to launch a rescue operation for the survivors in the entire building. Lu Yu just cooperated with the situation, not that he actively wanted to lend a helping hand.
Now he and Xiao Ran are the only two people left. If he sees someone in trouble again, Lu Yu will naturally not take the initiative to rescue them.
Let's not talk about whether he has the strength to save the other party. Even if he does, he can't guarantee that all the people he saves are kind-hearted.
Lu Yu would not do anything that would cause trouble for himself.
After Xiao Ran's brain enhancement, during the time he spent with Lu Yu, he could basically guess what was thinking in the mind of the dead-eyed young man in front of him. Seeing the indifferent expression on his face, he naturally didn't say much. What.
The two of them just watched quietly from behind the window as the two people on the street ran out of sight one after another. As the footsteps on the street gradually faded away, the surroundings of the Blue Moon Garden Community returned to tranquility.
Only two zombies were left enjoying the uneaten 'meal'.
"it's over……"
Lu Yu looked at the zombies eating the corpses for a while. After realizing that the two escaped men would not come back, he turned around and returned to the house.
He is a person with no ability to empathize, and he doesn't know the other person at all, so what is happening now will not have much impact on his emotions at all.
"Don't you want to continue watching? Maybe the two men who escaped will come back..."
Seeing Lu Yu turn around and leave, Xiao Ran said without looking back.
"You don't think that these two escaped people will come back to collect the bodies of their companions, do you? People who can abandon their companions and run for their lives are not as kind-hearted as you think."
Lu Yu made a neutral comment and folded the map on the coffee table and put it away.
"It is definitely impossible to collect the bodies, but the two people who escaped will most likely come back. They didn't bring anything with them, and they were obviously not ready to evacuate."
Xiao Ran's heterochromatic pupils narrowed slightly, and a hint of wisdom flashed in his eyes.
"If you are not prepared, you are not ready. Other people's affairs have nothing to do with us. Don't do things that are asking for trouble."
Lu Yu still had an expression on his face that seemed to have nothing to do with him. His eyes wandered around the living room and he began to take stock of the food reserves at home.
"Okay, then we won't cause any trouble."
Seeing that Lu Yu really had no intention of meddling, Xiao Ran shrugged and sat back on the chair.
In fact, the little Loli's intention was not to lend a helping hand to the two escaped passers-by. Yao Peiqing's previous experience had already made her realize the greed of human nature after the disaster.
Blind kindness will not bring blessings, on the contrary, it is very likely to cause death.
Xiao Ran just observed the two people running away and deduced that they did not evacuate from a safe place voluntarily.
Since it was a passive evacuation, it is very likely that there are still supplies used for survival left in the safe point that was originally used as a shelter.
If the two people who escaped could learn where the resources were stored, they might be able to increase supplies.
But since Lu Yu said that he didn't want to cause trouble, Xiao Ran would naturally not speak out his thoughts anymore. In terms of decision-making, as long as Lu Yu didn't make too outrageous choices, she would not interfere.
"Although the food reserves at home are not much, it is enough for the two of us to eat for a while. There is no need to worry about the water source for the time being. The water supply at home has not been cut off. You can get drinking water by boiling it..."
"But the natural gas supply to my home has been stopped..."
As Lu Yu's eyes swept across the containers filled with tap water, Xiao Ran reminded him.
The cutoff of natural gas means that the gas stoves in the home cannot be used. Although the supply of tap water has not been stopped, it is impossible to boil the raw water without electricity and gas.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
"Well, that's right, but I have solid alcohol at home, so I should be able to last for a while..."
Lu Yu lay on the ground and struggled to pull out a small sack from a pile of supplies.
The sack was filled with individually packaged alcohol blocks, amounting to about three hundred pieces.
The solid alcohol blocks were collected by Lu Yu and Xiao Ran from Wogo Supermarket at that time. There were three such sacks, and Yan Hanben and the others carried them from Lu Yu's home.
Although these solid alcohols are individually packaged and easy to use, they are very inconvenient to carry.
When Lu Yu was collecting fuel, he also thought about using gas cans and other easy-to-carry items instead. However, he searched around Wogo supermarket and couldn't find the gas cans he wanted, so he had to collect three bags of solid alcohol to temporarily hold them. superior.
He originally thought about making some adjustments and checking out other specialty stores after returning, but it turned out that God's calculations turned out to be unpredictable. Things happened one after another during the period, which completely disrupted Lu Yu's original plan.
Now it can be said that it is several times more difficult to go out and collect supplies than before.
"Suddenly I felt that it was a good choice to evacuate with Xu Xiaoxiao and the others... I really don't know if Zhang Heng's words are reliable..."
Lu Yu murmured in his heart, seeming to be hesitant about staying instead of leaving.
But in fact, Lu Yu would still choose to refuse if he was really asked to leave here and go to the refuge within a short period of time.
After all, the mysterious time traveler Zhang Heng once left him a
Of the three messages, the first two have been fulfilled.
Store food to deal with disaster outbreaks; store aspirin to cure viral infections.
Facts have proved that both pieces of information saved Lu Yu's life.
That's why Lu Yu believed in the third piece of information.
Staying at home and not traveling far is definitely the only way to save your life.
"By the way, Xiaoran, where is Uncle Ni's radio? Why isn't it on the table?"
Lu Yu seemed to suddenly think of something and asked.
"Uncle Ni's radio... is in the cabinet. Because I was worried that the dry battery in the radio would run out of power, I took out the battery from the radio yesterday when I was packing it up. I planned to install the battery at a specific time every day. Some information from the outside world."
The little Loli jumped up from the chair and walked towards the cabinet next to the kitchen.
Xiao Ran took out the old-style black radio from the cabinet, along with two large AA dry batteries.
Since there is no power display on this old-fashioned radio, Xiao Ran doesn't know how much power is left in the two dry batteries. In order to save power, he specially took the batteries out of the radio.
"Removing the battery is indeed a meticulous approach, and we don't have any extra AA dry batteries on hand..."
Lu Yu nodded, acknowledging Xiaoran's carefulness.
"But it's better to install it now. After all, there are so many changes happening around us. Maybe there will be some news on the radio."
Taking the dry battery and radio from Xiao Ran's hand, Lu Yu awkwardly opened the battery box and inserted the battery back in.
Probably Xiao Ran didn't turn off the radio when he was removing the battery, so when Lu Yu inserted the battery, a sizzling white noise immediately came from the radio.
"I remember that adjusting this knob can change the received channel..."
Lu Yu murmured in his mouth, and quickly turned the knob next to the radio with his fingers.
Following Lu Yu's movements, the squeaking sound of radio waves continued to come from the radio, like an irritable little monster, constantly protesting against Lu Yu's rough operation.
"You twisted so fast, even if there was a signal, you missed it..."
Xiao Ran rolled his eyes at Lu Yu who was operating carelessly, and snatched the radio away.
After careful debugging by Little Loli, the noisy white noise in the radio finally became much quieter, and there was still a faint human voice coming from it.
"Hey, there is really news being broadcast..."
The volume adjustment knob was gently turned by Xiao Ran, and the sound gradually became clearer as it amplified.
"Zizi... Dear Chinese... citizens... Zizi... Our nation has reached its most dangerous moment... Zizi..."
"This is still the content of the previous broadcast...but the signal sounds much worse than before..."
Lu Yu listened carefully for a while and found that the content played on the radio was exactly the same as the content played when communication was restored. A disappointed expression soon appeared on his face.
Perhaps the broadcast was simply a looping government announcement to inform citizens of the means to get to shelter.
Just when Lu Yu was about to ask Xiao Ran to turn off the radio to avoid wasting power, the white noise in the radio suddenly disappeared completely.
Even the previously vague looping broadcast stopped, as if a buzzing mosquito had been slapped to death, and there was a hint of death in the silence.
However, after this weird state lasted for two seconds, a piercing woman's scream came from the radio...
