After returning to the living room, Lang Hua directly destroyed the door lock.
He pushed past the closet and blocked the door, and then came to the kitchen with his backpack.
When I was highly focused before, it was nothing. Now that he was free, Lang Hua felt as if his throat was burning and his stomach was cramping.
Lang Hua hurriedly turned on the faucet, put his mouth up and swallowed. Then he sat by the pool, took out the biscuits in his backpack, and started chewing them regardless of appearance.
Calculating carefully, he had been running continuously for more than twenty hours. Even during the time when Lang Hua was on the motorcycle, he still needed to maintain the necessary concentration. The last time he ate could be traced back to the two simple energy bars he swallowed the night before the disaster.
If anyone selling energy bars knew their products could sustain a person for such a long time, they might jump for joy.
The premise is...if they are still alive.
But it is a pity that common brands of civilian camping energy bars like this can maintain satiety for up to 8 hours, which is the limit.
Fighting hunger and staying full are not the same thing.
Lang Hua once again left the faucet and threw himself and his backpack on the sofa. After that I never wanted to move a finger again.
Unlike a century ago, most water plants and power plants today are monitored by computer networks. Factory equipment does not require many people to supervise, it just needs to be maintained and monitored on a daily basis.
However, with the continuous development of the apocalypse, the infrastructure was destroyed and left unrepaired for a long time. It's only a matter of time before the power and water are cut off.
High-rise residential buildings rely entirely on electricity. The water supply system uses water pumps to pressurize domestic water and deliver it to residents' homes. When problems arise in the power grid, it will bear the brunt.
In the early days of the apocalypse, cities had water and food, which ensured the survival of many people, but also caused more people to lose the best opportunity to escape from the city, leading to their final deaths.
Later, scholars of previous generations called it the "quagmire effect."
Those who are hanging on for breath cannot escape suffocation in the end, but those who bravely strive for the first place often have a glimmer of hope.
"Good and bad, superior and inferior are not as simple as they seem on the surface. Those who cannot see through... will perish sooner or later."
Lang Hua thought casually and fell into a deep sleep.
…
At the same time, in a corner shop on Phoenix Entertainment Street in Shashi District 3.
"Damn it," a teenager screamed, "Yang Xiaoxiao, why do you have a gun?"
He looked like a middle school student. A section of his forearm was exposed under his white shirt, with a black skull tattoo on it.
"Chen Long, there are still many things you don't know."
Yang Xiaoxiao, who was standing opposite, had a look of disdain on her face. Her chestnut brown hair was tied up high, showing a pretty and delicate baby face. The horn-buttoned coat highlights the beauty of Western-style uniforms
The slim figure covers everything.
Corresponding to her snow-white complexion is a pistol tightly held in Xiu's hand.
The gun body was black and shiny, reflecting a cold metallic luster under the messy colored lights.
Chen Long tried to calm down after a brief fright: "Impossible. Who knew Yang Xiaoxiao that you weren't trying to scare me with a fake gun?"
The younger brother Sanzi beside him also hurriedly joined in: "That's right. He actually wanted to fool Brother Long, and he even dared to show his BB gun."
"That's right, maybe it's a water gun. You bitch..."
This is Chen Long's other younger brother, who looks more immature and is usually called Xiaoliu by Chen Long.
With a "bang" sound, the high-carbon steel ball rubbed against the boy's scalp and shot over.
Behind him, a glass window shattered, and a hole the size of a bowl was punched out by the powerful kinetic energy of the steel ball.
Xiaoliu was speechless for a moment, his legs gave way and he fell to the ground.
Yang Xiaoxiao glanced at him contemptuously: "Open your dirty mouth again, and your eyes will explode next!"
Those big eyes that usually gave off a feeling of gentleness, now revealed a hint of coldness.
Under the thin bangs, the willow eyebrows are curved and narrow, which also adds to her aura.
"What now?" Yang Xiaoxiao stared at Chen Long and said jokingly.
"Okay, Yang Xiaoxiao, you can." Chen Long said angrily, but knew that there was no point in continuing the stalemate, "Let's go."
Kicking Xiao Liu next to him, Chen Long led the people away from here.
Yang Xiaoxiao did have the confidence not to take these middle school students seriously.
The air gun in her hand was prepared by Lang Hua earlier. Although it is only a pocket-sized model, it contains a real can of "fluorochlorolane", a powerful gas. The gas high pressure reaches an astonishing 30mpa, and the possibility of injury and disability is extremely high when excited at close range.
…
A minute later, Yang Xiaoxiao looked into the distance from the window on the second floor.
The figures of the people leaving could not be faked. It should be considered safe now.
Staring at the blurry figures in the distance, Yang Xiaoxiao turned her head and spat fiercely on the ground: "Bah, you didn't sow it!"
Only then did another figure sneak out from behind the curtain - it turned out to be Xing Lili.
If the girl is not compared with Yang Xiaoxiao, her eyebrows can be considered handsome.
The navy bow tie is embellished in front of the sports shirt, adding a youthful and cute atmosphere to her.
Xing Lili asked hesitantly and tremblingly, seeming to be frightened by the scene just now: "Xiaoxiao, why do you have a gun?"
Yang Xiaoxiao did not answer, but frowned and said: "Lily, you must have seen Chen Long's face look so bad. Are you sure you still want to follow him?"
"Brother Long... Brother Long said he would protect me..." Xing Lili made people feel timid, "How about Xiaoxiao
I'll go with you to apologize, and I'll beg them, and maybe you can stay..."
Yang Xiaoxiao immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Are you kidding me, Yang Xiaoxiao, that I would bow to such a person? Come with me, I know a place with sufficient weapons and food. Do you still remember the plan I told you? ?”
"But Chen Long is a boy after all... and there are more than just them here." She seemed to think of something terrible, "If we leave here, there are so many monsters outside, but we two girls... will die!"
Hearing this, Yang Xiaoxiao frowned even deeper.
"Who said that? We have this."
Yang Xiaoxiao casually raised the right hand holding the gun and shook it in Xing Lili's direction.
However, Xing Lili immediately jumped away from her original position, trying to keep a safe distance from the muzzle of the gun.
This made Yang Xiaoxiao curl up the corner of his mouth.
She pulled Xing Lili to her side, looked her in the eyes and said, "Lily, what's wrong with you? You were not like this before."
Xing Lili shook her head desperately: "No, no no! Xiaoxiao, you don't understand, how can we compare now with the original? Didn't you also see it that day? Xiaomei was torn to pieces by those monsters alive and eaten by those monsters! "
Yang Xiaoxiao hurriedly comforted her: "It will be fine. As long as we are careful and go out to find my brother..."
But the girl suddenly shook off Yang Xiaoxiao's hand.
She yelled: "No, how can it be okay? No matter how powerful your brother is, he is just an ordinary person. How can he fight against a man-eating monster? Maybe... maybe he is already dead!"
Yang Xiaoxiao held her shoulders firmly and her tone became anxious: "Lily, how can you say that? My brother...my brother won't..."
"Then why didn't he contact you? Why didn't he come to you? If nothing happened to him..."
Xing Lili suddenly covered her mouth, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxiao, I didn't mean that... I... I just think it's safe here. I can't leave here, I can't, I can't..."
These words had a stronger impact on Yang Xiaoxiao than Xing Lili could imagine.
Yes, the possibility just mentioned is not impossible.
Man is not God, man cannot defeat heaven.
As long as you are still human, you may have...
Yang Xiaoxiao was stunned on the spot and didn't know what to do, watching Xing Lili break away from her hand and run away.
She knew that the tragedy that happened on the night of the disaster had greatly stimulated Lily.
But she didn't expect that the stimulation would be so intense.
Xiaomei among their companions was torn to pieces and eaten alive in front of their eyes. The two of them failed to save her and could not save her. The only thing they could do at that time was to run for their lives and run along the gap between the corpses.
