fictional doomsday

"By the way! Huang Mao, have you used up your food coupons? We haven't received our dinner yet!" Wu Xian suddenly remembered that he had just used up his food coupons, and there was nothing left for dinner. All the food they brought back was exchanged for food coupons. Except for the two beef jerky left on the table, there was no other food.

"Um...Brother Xian! Have you used up all your coupons? All mine were given to the sister on the eighth floor, and I didn't keep anything..." Huang Chuan said a little embarrassed.

"Um...you shouldn't be hungry, right? Why don't you stop eating tonight and go out to the second building tomorrow to get some food?" Wu Xian was extremely embarrassed when Huang Chuan asked him this. All his coupons were given to the woman on the eighth floor.

"Well, I'm not very hungry, so I won't eat..."

The two of them once again made a tacit agreement not to delve further and chose to go hungry together. Wu Xian picked up the beef jerky on the table and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing the beef jerky and getting ready to go to bed.

Huang Chuan looked at the other piece of beef jerky left on the table and did not move it. He kept it and planned to eat it later when he was hungry. It would still fill his stomach by then, so he lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

I didn't eat anything after a busy day yesterday. I just ate a little while cleaning up the zombies in the second building. At that time, I just wanted to clean up the zombies early, and I didn't think about the problem of eating at all. The food I got later All the coupons were given away again, and now I can only say that I am hungry because of my own fault.

In the middle of the night, Wu Xian touched his shriveled belly and remembered that Huang Chuan didn't seem to have eaten the last piece of beef jerky during the day, so he thought about eating it secretly, so he got up and turned on the light. At this time, Wu Xian discovered a reality that he had to accept, that is, the city's power system had begun to collapse.

The community where they are located is not close to the city center, so the priority of power supply is naturally weak. It has been a week since the outbreak of the zombie virus. There are two main power supply systems in Hangzhou, thermal power generation and hydropower generation. Judging from the current situation, it is most likely that the thermal power supply system has been automatically shut down due to no maintenance, and it can no longer continue to supply large-scale power to the city. Hydropower generation alone is far from enough. The power outage in rural areas is just the beginning. It is estimated that the power will gradually disappear in the next few days until the system automatically shuts down power output.

Wu Xian opened the door in the dark, and under the moonlight, he saw Huang Chuan sitting on the sofa looking at him. Wu Xian was a little embarrassed. He had forgotten the abilities Huang Chuan gained after evolving. His current perception is more sensitive than a dog. , how can his little movement not be discovered by the other party.

Wu Xian pretended to be calm, then picked up the mineral water on the table and took a few sips, and said: "The community has lost power. We have to find a suitable place to live as soon as possible. It is estimated that we will not be here in the community for a long time. Soon, the suburbs will be here." The water supply will also stop completely, and with just the little water stored in the supermarket in the community, Lao Chen won’t be able to use it for many days!”

When Huang Chuan saw that Wu Xian only came out to drink water and did not want to eat the beef jerky he had reserved, he breathed a sigh of relief, then stuffed the beef jerky he had reserved into his mouth, nodded and said, "Well, listen to Xian." It’s yours! But it’s really inconvenient when the battery is out, and you can’t see anything because it’s so dark!”

Early the next morning, the two of them were hungry and planned to go out early so that they could get some food from the second building. However, they never thought that they were blocked by Lao Chen's people just as they were about to go out.

Wu Xian didn't know what happened. He even thought about Lao Wang, who was with them yesterday, and was afraid that he would expose how they hunted zombies yesterday. Just when Wu Xian was thinking about possible situations, he saw Lao Chen coming down the stairs with someone.

When Lao Chen saw Wu Xian and Huang Chuan, he stepped forward with a smile, patted Wu Xian on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Wu, you said it is already difficult to survive in our community, but this house leaks It rained all night, and the power went out yesterday. I asked someone to check it out. It was not a problem with the wiring, but a problem with the city's power supply. Now that we have a power outage, it will be even more difficult to survive in the future. Without power, Sooner or later, the gas will run out, and there will be no way to light a fire, so this place can be thrown away!"

When Wu Xian heard what Lao Chen said, he couldn't help but be shocked. He never thought that Lao Chen would make such a choice. He didn't miss the shelter he built in the sixth building, but he wanted to abandon it so casually. It seemed that he didn't miss it. He didn't even consider the life and death of those in the six buildings.

Just when Wu Xian was stunned and at a loss, Lao Chen continued: "But it's still early. I plan to take some brothers out early in the morning to see if there is any suitable place to live around. Our apartment Although it is good, it is still too high to be used as a survival base. The elevator cannot be used after a power outage, so it is not easy to manage!"

Wu Xian thought about it. Although this floor was not like the apartments built later, it was more than floors up, but on the th floor, you had to climb stairs every day. Who could bear this? In addition, this kind of high-rise building is indeed not suitable for use as a shelter. After all, without a complete circulation system, once the high-rise building is besieged by zombies, there is only one outcome, which is to starve to death. In addition, due to the height of the floor, you can't run away even if you want to. It's just like a fire in a high-rise building. If you don't escape in time, you will die.

"Brother Xiao Wu, I plan to take people out to find some diesel first. Each building in the community has an emergency power supply system, but it is not used normally. There is no diesel at all, and the generator cannot be used. Do you want to come with us? "Old Chen asked with a smile.

Woo They are ordinary people with no fighting power at all. They may still be able to fight against ordinary people, but they are not worth mentioning against evolved people with abilities, even those like Wu Xian and Huang Chuan who are not lethal. The ability of force is also not something ordinary people can deal with.

Thinking of this, Wu Xian shook his head and said: "No, we came down originally to ask about the power outage, and we also planned to look for Mr. Long. After all, we didn't see the body, maybe he is still alive!"

Old Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this. In fact, he didn't trust Wu Xian as much as he seemed on the surface. During the period, he arranged for his subordinates to monitor him and asked Li Wenjie to help with monitoring records. However, the reports he received were nothing unusual. Although he was a little worried, Lao Chen still did not force Wu Xian to go with them. He just pretended to be a little embarrassed and said: "Brother Xiao Wu, without your help, we will be missing a lot of help this time! Brother, I know what you are capable of, but if you don’t want to go with us, that’s fine. Lend me your bow. After all, if we want to find diesel this time, we have to go outside the community. What are the dangerous conditions outside? I don’t know, but if you lend me your bow and arrows, it’s an extra guarantee!”
