2012 Doomsday Survival Record

Chapter 9 The Great Earthquake

Lu Qian would not be so bored as to keep pets at such a critical juncture. He could have a hundred reasons for keeping the kittens, and the only thing he couldn't have was sympathy.The main purpose of keeping the kittens is to use them for experiments.

Although the unexpected rebirth was enough to surprise Lu Qian, it took five or six years to completely change his appearance without warning. Who is not worried and who is not curious?

Lu Qian is more curious than anyone about the shrinking space, the extra sandy soil and black land, springs and small pools.However, no matter how curious he was, he didn't dare to take a few gulps of the pool water in the space rashly. The water looked really clear, but he didn't know if it was poisonous or if it had any side effects.Subconsciously, he also felt that it was unlikely that he would be poisoned to death by the pool of water, but he managed to recover a life from the apocalypse, if he lost it in such an inexplicable way, it would be too embarrassing!

Miao Zai lived up to expectations and licked the milk in the small bowl, his stomach was full, his spirits recovered, and he had the strength to toss again.Scratching and scratching in the cage, meowing and meowing non-stop.Lu Qian carried the cage to the utility room, put the cage on an inconspicuous old wooden table at the base of the wall, bent down and knelt on the ground with his buttocks pouted, groped for a while with his right hand under the wooden table, and quickly found it. A raised concrete floor.He took a lot of effort to move the floor, and a musty smell came over his face. Under the wooden table, there was an entrance that only allowed one person to pass through. The mottled black wooden ladder continued down, and the basement below was pitch black. What? Can't see either.

Lu Qian took out a flashlight with dry batteries from the space. The flashlight was not particularly bright, and the light was dim. It shone down from the entrance of the cave. The basement was not big, only less than 20 square meters. There were more than [-] holes of different materials and sizes. A pile of boxes neatly overlapped in a space about three meters high.Because it was only cleaned during the summer vacation, the square concrete walls were not too dirty except for some spider webs.

Lu Qian held the flashlight in one hand and climbed the ladder with the other. Accompanied by the creaking and creaking of the wooden ladder that was in disrepair, he soon reached the bottom.In the basement, apart from the May [-]th pistol and a country M army knife bought at a high price from a veteran of the Vietnam War, the other things are not worth much, but for the two brothers, the old things in the box are not money. Measured.

In the corner of the basement was an inconspicuous iron box, and the large lock on the box had grown rust spots.Lu Qian took out the key and opened the lock. There were three cotton packages in the box. When he opened one of them, he found a very new Type [-] pistol, a magazine, and a few golden bullets; the other package contained It is a field knife of country M with a pitch black blade and no sheath.The last package contained a brand new military high power telescope.

Lu Qian's grandfather, Wu Fan, is an out-and-out military enthusiast. When he was young, he liked to collect all kinds of guns-arms and knives. Later, because he wanted to return to China to support the country's construction, he had to reluctantly give these things to a country far away in M. friends.After returning to China, he fully realized how strict the gun control in China is. After a lot of effort, he only got a pistol and a field knife. It is Wu Fan's most precious thing besides his wife, daughter, and grandson. When he was still alive, he would secretly take it out to play with from time to time.Lu Qian and Lu Xun's marksmanship was taught by him. The teaching materials were highly simulated toy guns. They had never used real guns before the end of the world. But compared to many ordinary people who don't even know how to change the magazine, they The starting point of the two is obviously much different.

When Lu Qian hadn't awakened his powers, he was taken in by the zombie hunters because of his good marksmanship.In the early days of the end of the world, the vast majority of ordinary people did not have guns in their hands. Even if they did, they were snatched or picked up from corpses.There are not many people like Lu Qian who can hit nine out of ten shots and headshot with one blow, so even if he is not as good as a supernatural being, other supernatural beings can still reluctantly agree with him, take him in, and take him out to fight zombies instead of Stay on base as a handyman.

Because of the strict gun control, the early survivors of country Z were at a disadvantage compared to people in country M, state O and other countries.Later, the Survivor Base established by the government headed by the Zhongzhou Base in City A mass-produced a large number of guns and ammunition and put them on the market. As long as there are enough crystals, they can be exchanged for guns and ammunition. In this way, ordinary survivors without supernatural powers finally have A chance to survive.However, thermal weapons with powerful lethality are often controlled by the government or powerful mercenary groups. It is quite good for ordinary people to have an AK.It's a pity that in the late end of the world, whether it's AK or individual rocket launchers, they all become weaker and weaker in the face of increasingly powerful zombies and mutant beasts.

No matter how unwilling people are to admit it, the end of the world is a cruel competition for the survival of the fittest. Only those with supernatural powers and those who have evolved have the chance to survive.

This kind of thinking itself is not wrong, what is wrong is that the supernatural being who becomes complacent and blindly arrogant because of this kind of thinking...

Lu Qian loaded the bullet, held the pistol in his hand and gestured, and after finding out the feeling, he put the pistol and the bullet into the space.Then he swung the field knife a few more times. The slightly heavy knife was very easy to use. The blade was sharp and could break hair. It was definitely not comparable to those high-quality imitation Xibei that cost a hundred and ten yuan each.Lu Qian played with it for a while, temporarily put the field knife into the space, looked through the binoculars, and couldn't see any effect in the narrow basement, but he and Lu Xun took out the binoculars to play during the summer vacation, and the effect was good. very good.

Putting the telescope into the space, Lu Qian moved all the boxes in the basement to the utility room outside through the space. After some arrangement, the entrance to the basement and the ventilation holes in the corners became more concealed.

He took a hundred catties of rice, two bags of salt, ten catties of bacon, twenty catties of potatoes, and three barrels of mineral water from the space and put them in the basement.Since he made up his mind to temporarily hide the matter from Xue Chen's space and force him to quickly recognize the facts and grow up in the shortest time, then he must first do these preparations.

After Lu Qian finished decorating the basement, he went upstairs to the guest room to look at Xue Chen. After seeing that he was fine and lethargic except for a fever, he was very unbalanced. Why should he sleep like a pig, but I have to bear Huge secrets run wild!So, the extremely unbalanced someone finally couldn't hold back his hands and poked his sleeping handsome face fiercely. Seeing the red marks that appeared on his face immediately, the someone immediately left the guest room with a guilty conscience.

Lu Qian went to the downstairs kitchen to seize the time to continue stewing potatoes, distracting himself from time to time to observe the cats.After the little guy drank the milk and regained his energy, he kept quiet, screaming and scratching the cage, the black hair all over his body was bluffing, and he looked extremely restless.

Lu Qian was annoyed by it, gave it a cold look, and said coldly: "Shut up!"

Ling Lie's murderous aura frightened the kitten's hair instantly, and the cry became even more horrific. Lu Qian paused for a moment with the kitchen knife in his hand, and finally turned his head with a dark handsome face, and swung the kitchen knife to chop pork vigorously. Chaotic flesh and blood flew everywhere.The kitty was terrified watching from the sidelines, completely overwhelmed by his evil spirit, obediently lying in the cage, not daring to bark anymore, the warm and comfortable temperature in the kitchen gradually aroused the laziness in its bones, the amber color The big eyes were glued together after blinking, and unconsciously fell asleep with the tail curled up.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and it was approaching midnight, Lu Qian put all the things in the kitchen into the space, and returned to the master bedroom on the third floor with the cage.Dissatisfied with being disturbed in his lucid dream, the kitty meowed twice, as if he also sensed the danger of squirming in the dark. He pricked up his ears vigilantly, lowered his body, and assumed a posture of full vigilance.

At midnight in the cold winter, the outside of the window was as dark as ink, and a large piece of thick cloud like torn flakes pressed tightly over the small town. It was so thick and thick that people could not breathe. A few old trees hung their branches and hid in the dark with everyone. Like a living creature, crawling and trembling under the pressure of the disaster, even the most free wind was torn off its wings.

When the whole town was about to drown in dead silence, suddenly there was a strong wind, dark clouds rolled over, the ground shook, and a scream broke the last silence...

The earthquake in Qingtong Town was stronger than Lu Qian expected, the house was shaken very hard, the lights flickered a few times and went out, all the cabinets, chairs and beds in the house creaked, and the cat was so frightened that it screamed and scratched the cage desperately.Lu Qian picked up the cage, took a flashlight and rushed out.

Half a minute before the earthquake, Xue Chen suddenly woke up from his dream. Before he realized what was going on, he felt the whole room shaking.He jumped up from the bed, grabbed a piece of clothing and rushed out without even wearing his shoes.

"Xiao Qian, are you alright?" Xue Chen asked nervously when he saw Lu Qian who had just left the master bedroom.

"I'm fine, take those shoes, follow me, go down first." Lu Qian pointed to the pair of military boots next to the shoe cabinet on the third floor, Xue Chen nodded, and followed him downstairs with the shoes run.

By the time Lu Qian and Xue Chen stumbled all the way from the third floor to the street outside and put on their shoes, most of the families in the town had already escaped from their houses.Because of the omen at night, the people in the town paid attention to it, and most of them were elderly people who didn't sleep deeply at night. When they realized something was wrong, they woke up the whole family. The speed of escape was not slower than that of Lu Qian and the others.

Luo Dasheng, the only petty official living in the town, found a portable loudspeaker from nowhere, and kept shouting to keep everyone away from the building, calling on everyone to gather in the open space at the end of the town.Everyone gathered together in a noisy manner, Deng Qing and his wife took the initiative to stand up and help count the number of people.The entire Qingtong Town has thousands of residents at least, but there are only a hundred or so families living on the streets of the town, with a population of more than 300 people.Luo Dasheng and Deng Qing were divided into two groups and counted from the first household on the street to the last household at the end of the alley. They finished counting in about ten minutes, and only three households had not escaped yet.

The earthquake is still going on, and the shaking is not as strong as before, but no one knows when it will shake again.Trapped people, to save, or not to save?

Luo Dasheng is a small clerk in the township mansion of Qingtong Town, not even a ninth-rank sesame official, so it is really not for him to decide whether to save people or not.The mobile phone couldn't get through, the police couldn't be called, and the leader couldn't be contacted. Luo Dasheng looked at the faces of the common people below who were numb with fear, his palms were sweating like he had lost his backbone.

Just as Xue Chen was about to say something, Lu Qian quietly kicked him. He turned his head and was about to ask him what was wrong, but Deng Qing suddenly stood up.

"We are all old neighbors and old neighbors who have lived in the same town for decades. I won't say much else. Those who are willing to come with me to save people will stand up. We will do our best to obey the fate of the people and only hope that we can be ashamed of our hearts." Qing spoke sonorously, and the crowd below looked at each other and chatted for a long time. A few high school kids wanted to go but were suppressed by their families. In the end, only six people stood up, three enthusiastic old men, one Luo Dasheng, and finally Xue Chen and Lu Qian.

Lu Qian naturally didn't want to take care of this matter, but the situation in the town made it impossible for him to stand up and save people.There were not two young people in their prime of life in the town, and hundreds of pairs of eyes were all staring at him and Xue Chen, as if this was the right thing for them to do.If the two of them want to live a peaceful life in the town for a few more days, this man must be rescued tonight no matter what!

Xue Chen is not stupid, he obviously also felt the subtle feeling of "forced by the situation", and most of his enthusiasm for saving lives was extinguished.

The three old men were old and frail, and they were directly brushed off. The remaining Deng Qing, Luo Dasheng, Lu Qian and Xue Chenbing split into three groups to save others.Because Lu Qian and Xue Chen were in a group of two, they were assigned to the furthest house, and the bungalow in that house was also the most dilapidated. According to the current intensity of the earthquake, it might collapse at any time.Moreover, there are three members of this family, the youngest granddaughter is only five or six years old, and the older couple is in their sixties and seventies, and one of them is still paralyzed.

Because of the persistent high fever, Xue Chen had no strength in his whole body, and walked on the bumpy road like stepping on cotton.Finally, I reached the door of this family. The door was ajar. The dilapidated house was crumbling.

Lu Qian yelled a few times outside, but there was no response from inside the room. His heart skipped a beat for no reason, and he suddenly felt vigilant.
