Doomsday Wood Ruler

On August 2022, 8, a global solar eclipse.

Outside the window is the thick darkness like ink, and you can't see your fingers.To add fuel to the fire, there was a power outage, and the Internet and TV could not receive signals. People stayed at home, as if they were on an isolated island surrounded by sea water. It was obviously the most familiar place, but it did not bring the slightest sense of security.

"I think, it must be too late this year, so everyone will be unlucky together..." Shen Hao lay on the bed, talking non-stop.

"Say a few words less and take good care of your illness."

Shen Mu touched the temperature of his forehead, and changed a wet towel.

At this juncture, Shen Hao, who was usually active and lively, suddenly developed a fever, which made Shen Mu and Li Heguang feel quite flustered.

The water didn't stop, but it was useless for the three of them, because they were afraid that blood rain would mix into the tap water.Fortunately, Shen Mu was well-prepared. Before the solar eclipse, the kettle he boiled came in handy. Moreover, the house uses gas, so even if the power went out, the water in the bucket could be boiled.

As for why there is a big bucket of water... Dad Shen, who is very stingy in some aspects, found that the water meter would not turn when the water flow was low enough, so there was a bucket in the bathroom all the year round to catch the water - facing Li Heguang adored Looking at her eyes and sighing in surprise, Shen Mu decided not to tell the truth.

The mobile phone with remaining power can be used as a watch and a flashlight. I don’t know how long the darkness will last. Two of the three people have already turned off their phones, leaving one for use.

Instead of complete darkness in some homes, they lit candles.

The twilight jumps, bringing a little comfort, people always need light.

In the community, several families with good relationships gathered together to comfort each other. It’s not that no one came to call Shen Mu and Shen Hao. They were a little surprised when they found the motionless zombie outside the door, but then they knew that Shen Hao had a fever. My attitude turned 180 degrees, saying that my side is full of old, weak, sick and disabled, and I am sorry to hurt them.

Very realistic.

"Brother," Shen Hao held Shen Mu's hand: "Will I become a zombie?"

"No." Shen Mu's voice was as calm as usual: "You didn't get caught in the rain, it's probably the sequelae of the air conditioner blowing too much."

There was an unspeakable silence.

Shen Hao's voice sounded extremely weak: "Brother, if I become a zombie, you must kill me. That's not called killing. I was already dead when I became a zombie. You just let me rest in peace."

"Don't think about it."

"I didn't! Brother Li, remember to help me. If my brother can't do it, I'll rely on you." Shen Hao sniffed and said with a sob: "Brother, I'm afraid..."

A sigh came from the darkness.

"I'll watch over you."

"Don't, it's easy to be bitten like this."

"Are you left alone to think wildly? Don't worry, I have a watermelon knife at hand."

"..."

The mood is very complicated.

Thanks to the attribute of the house, the amount of food in the house is a bit outrageous, egg yolk cake, dried nuts, beef strips, etc., Shen Mu even cooked a pot of porridge with gas, which was specially provided to a certain patient.

He arranged everything methodically.

Li Heguang felt that he was a little redundant, and he didn't seem to have done anything other than eat, so he volunteered to keep watch at night.

The gate was closed tightly, and no zombies could come in silently. Li Heguang's so-called night watch was just to prevent Shen Hao's corpse from changing.The three of them all knew this, but they had no choice but to do it.

The hands on the clock reached 12, and Shen Mu fell asleep.

Li Heguang rubbed his face and forced himself to cheer up.When I was in the army, this kind of work was trivial. After retiring from the army, I didn't exercise much, and my physical strength also deteriorated.He stretched out his hand to touch his belly, but fortunately, there was no fat.Candles should be used sparingly, and there is no moonlight. Li Heguang sat by the bed, not knowing what to do to pass the time.

His parents died a long time ago, and there are a lot of brothers and sisters. The relationship is neither far nor close. Meeting is just a greeting. There is nothing worth nostalgic for. If you want him to say, the instructors in the army are closer to the soldiers of the same period.

And Shen Mu and Shen Hao are the instructor's family members.

In the darkness, Li Heguang reached out and touched Shen Hao's forehead, and changed a towel for him.

The next morning, Shen Mu woke up naturally.

His eyes were blank, and he murmured, "Why didn't you dream..."

The phrase "one night without dreams" refers to a good quality of sleep. Shen Mu, who enjoyed this treatment for the first time in 19 years, was a little panicked.

He forced a smile: "Brother Li, go to sleep, I'll just be awake."

Shen Mu was extremely restless, looking at the darkness outside the window with a kind of dread: Obviously, something supernatural happened, and it actually affected his dreams.That little boy will grow up suddenly, could it be that he also sensed that the reality is about to change dramatically?

In the darkness, there were sharp screams and chewing sounds that made people sweat, and Shen Mu touched the jewel flower with trembling fingers.

The succulent conveyed the emotions of joy and dependence, and reported its own growth unshakably, indicating that the sun was a bit lacking.Shen Mu laughed, and suddenly felt that being a plant was quite happy.

The solar eclipse lasted for three days and three nights. On the fourth day, the east was covered with white, and people cheered loudly.

The light has come, and with it much worsened circumstances.

Looking down from the window sill, there were unsteady zombies wandering in the garden of the neighborhood. They looked up with longing expressions, and then rushed into the corridor.

Neither the Internet nor the TV was restored, and the mobile phone still had no signal. Shen Mu could only pray that his parents were well, and then cooked meals with gas.

The moment he saw the hot food, Shen Hao shed tears.

Shen Mu was speechless: "Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?" As he spoke, he was about to help his younger brother to sit up, but was pushed away.

Shen Hao vowed: "It's ready, I can do it, wait for me for a while."

This is not secondary school, it's his body telling him he can do it.

Dominated by this strange feeling, Shen Hao put his strength into his hands, clenched his fists, exhaled loudly, and sat up suddenly—it was still affected after lying down for three days, but the movement was too violent, and he fell down again up.

No one laughed at him.

Shen Mu, Li Heguang stared wide-eyed, looking at the puddle of water on the ground.

They could see clearly that the water was shot from Shen Hao's hand.

Ability?

The three of you looked at me and I looked at you, all of them were surprised.

"Alas." After taking his temperature, Shen Hao drooped his head and packed his things.He originally thought that after awakening the ability, he would accept his younger brother and push the girl to the pinnacle of life. As a result, the ability can only be used as a water gun at present, and it has no other use except to provide water for everyone.

Shen Mu was very clear about his younger brother's urine behavior, and Shen Mu said he would not express his opinion.

"It's already very good," Li Heguang patted Shen Hao's shoulder: "At least we don't have to worry about water, and it's too late for other people to be envious!"

"Oh."

Shen Hao pulled out a smile, still sullen.

Unable to see his younger brother's decadent appearance, Shen Mu patted his head: "Tell me, can the ability be upgraded?"

Shen Hao's eyes lit up: "Brother, I love you!"

"I accept your confession." Shen Mu put Suorou in front of him: "Come, pour some water for my daughter."

"...When did this thing have a name?"

"just."

"Is it still a mother?"

"Why so much nonsense, water it."

Why do you think my brother treats succulents better than me?Must be an illusion.With tears in his eyes, Shen Hao watered the succulents, and was disgusted that he watered too much, and his whole body was not well.

After eating all the unbroken dishes in the refrigerator, Li Heguang decided to leave with the two brothers.

His argument is very sufficient: "Look at the zombies outside, are they more flexible?" The young security guard said with a serious expression, "They are evolving." A balcony on the ground floor - something that would have been impossible a few days ago.

"It's a solar eclipse!" Shen Hao blurted out: "Not only humans, zombies also benefit!"

Li Heguang sighed: "God knows how far they will evolve. Let's leave earlier. I can handle it now."

The three of them walked in the corridor with big bags and small bags on their backs. Li and Guang, who were wearing down jackets, were at the front. Their exposed skin was covered by the thick cloth. Although it was very hot, the latter was obviously more important than their lives.When the solar eclipse just started, the people who came to call the Shen brothers exchanged some information with them, for example, if they were bitten or caught by zombies, they would indeed be infected and become similar to zombies.

There are quite a lot of zombies in the corridor, perhaps because they smelled human, most of them were banging on the door in vain, although they looked harmless, but the appearance and the feeling of being close to terror would also give the door People are under a lot of psychological pressure.

Shen Hao couldn't help but look at Shen Mu.

How many people can keep his brother's calm when encountering such a situation?

He straightened his chest, feeling a little proud.

Smelling the fresh human smell, the zombies who knocked on the door gave up the delicious food they had been craving for a long time, and rushed towards them, and were killed one by one by Li Heguang's T-shaped stick.

When killing the zombies on the second floor, the door opened.

This household lived in an old couple with a very good relationship. During the three days of the solar eclipse, many people from the same building gathered here. Even now, some people still haven't left.

A white-haired face appeared behind the door: "Xiaohao?"

"Grandma Chen!"

"How are you, Xiaohao?" Grandma Chen said with an ugly smile, "I heard you have a fever?"

Shen Hao rolled his eyes: "Yes, the fever has subsided!" He didn't take the initiative to say anything about the supernatural power.

Grandma Chen's complexion changed and she became extremely pale. She murmured something in a low voice, her body was on the verge of falling, she suddenly turned around, and rushed towards a pair of young men and women in the hall with agility that didn't match her age!

"Murderer! Murderer! Give back my wife's life!"

"Grandma, calm down!"

"What are you doing old woman?"

The anti-theft door, which no one was paying attention to, shook and gently closed it.

"It seems that Grandpa Chen has a fever. They thought he would definitely turn into a zombie and killed him." Shen Mu sighed quietly: "Let's go."

When he got downstairs, Shen Hao looked back at the house.

On the balcony, there is also a colorful thing fluttering in the wind.

He waved his hand in that direction.

I left gently, just as I came lightly, I waved my sleeves without taking a pair of pants.
