The Survival Rule of Evolution in the End Times

After two or three days, the situation had grown so dire that anyone could see that people were starting to go hungry.

The food left outside will completely stink the next day, the room is slightly damp, and the wooden furniture will mold and rot quickly.Jing Tong even found a pile of black hairy mushroom-like things growing on the wooden mop, and the mop broke into several pieces with a little force.Fortunately, Xie Jinning prepared stainless steel tables and chairs in advance, and the bed was also made of Western-style metal, so there was no place to sit.

The water and electricity at home are only supplied for a short time a day, and the water is often filled with plastic buckets before it runs out. The telephone network is also cut off, and the cities do not know each other's situation at all.

Xie Jinning bought a small diesel generator before, and the electricity generated is used to maintain the function of the refrigerator.In order to avoid attracting too much attention, they do not turn on the lights at night, but light candles or use flashlights.

The streets are full of gloom and gloom. The first batch of people who had a fever have gradually settled down, and only a very small number survived. The stories of animals hurting people and even eating people are spreading more and more.The crematorium works around the clock, and if you go out, you will meet family members holding hands and holding photos of the deceased in mourning.

Xie Hongmei didn't dare to complain in front of Xie Jinning anymore, and most of the time she would consciously cook and do housework, but when she saw Ajie's stupid appearance with a big appetite, she couldn't help muttering to herself, she didn't care about Ajie anyway. pleasing to the eye.

Professor Bai Jing ran around with the three children, collecting as many resources as possible.Gasoline, coal, clothing, etc., as long as they are useful, they will find ways to get them, but now there are no merchants doing business at all.

Sometimes Jing Tong couldn't help thinking wildly. If he died at that time, his father and Xie Jinning would be sad, right?

They are much luckier than many people now, there are no casualties, and there are many things to eat...

The whole city is dark at night, and most people will choose to go to bed early.There are also more and more unknown animal sounds, just like being in a virgin forest without protection facilities, it makes people feel very insecure.Jing Tong's nerves have become much more sensitive, and he is often awakened by those movements at night, and then it takes a long time to fall asleep.

In the middle of the night that night, Jingtong was woken up again by the sound of rain.

The rain seemed to be pouring directly from the sky, the thunder and lightning were very loud, and the glass crackled like it was about to explode.Jing Tong was almost so shaken that his ears hurt, he frowned and thought, although the rain temporarily supplemented the city's water shortage problem, would the corresponding crazy-growing plants become more terrifying?

Xie Jinning noticed it immediately, opened his eyes and leaned towards Jing Tong, leaned close to his ear and said, "Are you worried? Don't be afraid." He hesitated for a moment, and hugged Jing Tong's slightly cool body with his hands.

When Jing Tong was a child, he was used to sleeping with things in his arms. Later, after living in school, he was afraid of being laughed at by his classmates. This habit was forcibly changed.Now Xie Jinning is very warm, and under such a bad situation, Jing Tong didn't care whether he would lose face as a brother, and let Xie Jinning hug him as docilely as a cat.

He also pressed Xie Jinning's ear, and said: "It will be all right, little friend Xie Jinning, you don't worry about what I worry about?"

Jing Tong quickly fell asleep this time, and even turned into a koala and entangled Xie Jinning.Xie Jinning's heart was melted by his soft forehead, and his breathing was hot.He was stiff and didn't dare to move any more, he smiled helplessly, as expected he had committed a crime of his own accord!

He forced himself to calm down, and continued to close his eyes and practice the power of mind.

The next morning the thunderstorm subsided and the weather was very clear.Sure enough, the trees had more than doubled in thickness, and the floors below the fifth floor were completely covered by leaves.Due to the lack of food, many people have been forced to go out to find food these days.After all, human beings are very fragile, and they can't stand being hungry for a day.

"We have to go out and look for it." Xie Jinning said in a deep voice, "The things we have now won't last long. We must adapt to the current environment faster, and we can't wait until we are hungry to find a way."

Those who can persevere will become stronger and stronger, otherwise they will be eaten by more and more powerful monsters sooner or later.Neither Jing Tong nor Ajie's abilities showed signs of appearing, perhaps what was missing was just an opportunity.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Professor Jing would also follow them.

Xie Jinning said politely: "Uncle, it's better not to go, it's okay, the three of us will go to explore the road first, and uncle will follow us after we have gained something." Human beings are still in the groping and adaptation period, and it is easy to get sick.Professor Jing's health is not particularly good, and he doesn't want to make Jing Tong sad if something happens to Professor Jing.

Jing Tong also said: "Dad, you are nearsighted by a thousand degrees. If you lose your glasses, we will have to carry them back for you!"

Professor Jing said helplessly: "Okay then, you guys just look around to see if there are edible wild vegetables or something, don't run too far."

The three went downstairs and found that the weeds below had grown to waist height, and the ground was covered with vines the size of a baby's wrist.A lot of water droplets had accumulated in the grass, and they kept slipping when walking. Everyone was cautious.Downstairs, many people were looking for something to eat in the grass with food bags and kitchen knives. Everyone knew that it was dangerous now, so they subconsciously gathered in crowded places.

Xie Jinning scanned around, and knew that there must be no food to eat in this family building, after all, so many people searched through it.In fact, many wild vegetables that were edible in the past are also mutating, and there are very few edible types.He wanted to find some edible vegetables today. Of course, it would be even better if he could find fresh meat, because his physical strength would only be consumed more and more in the future, and eating the meat of mutant beasts would increase his strength.

He took out an ax from the plastic bag he was carrying and handed it to Ajie, and handed the other dagger to Jing Tong, saying: "I don't know what the mutant animals have developed into, so be careful."

Ajie held the ax and said with a smile: "Don't worry, boss!"

Jing Tong held the dagger uncomfortably and nodded, carefully observing the surroundings.

Xie Jinning smiled unconsciously, stepped forward and touched Jing Tong's head, and walked forward first.Jing Tong didn't pay attention to other places, and followed closely while looking for something that looked like wild vegetables with his peripheral vision.

When the three of them went outside, the asphalt road was so tightly covered by vines that there was hardly any road surface exposed.Now no one dares to drive on the road, unless he doesn't want to die, and there are many people on both sides of the road looking for food, cutting off everything that looks edible.

Man has occupied the top of the food chain for too many years, and now he is in trouble, and after a moment of confusion, he has begun to consciously look for a way to survive.

"Boss, is this amaranth?" Ajie quickly found a weed bush half a person's height with red spots on it, and asked Xie Jinning uncertainly.

Xie Jinning cut off a stem with a dagger, and the dark green stinky juice immediately flowed out, which was obviously inedible.

After searching for about twenty minutes, the three finally found a shepherd's purse that looked edible.The shepherd's purse was very big, and the root was very flexible, so it was very difficult to cut it.The three of them only cut off the top half which looked slightly tender, and just filled a plastic bag full of it.

"Shepherd's purse makes dumplings delicious, I've eaten them before." Ajie was happy to eat some, and smiled, "There is still meat in the refrigerator."

Jing Tong was also very happy to wipe the sweat off his forehead, after all, this trip was not in vain.

It was still early, so the three continued to search for food, and found a few pieces of fungus the size of a palm on a section of wood, and they didn't go back until near noon.

When I went back, I heard some Xie Hongmei's sharp screams coming from the house: "What are you doing? Want to rob and kill people?!"

The three of them walked in quickly, and saw that there were three strange adult and strong men in the room.Professor Jing fell to the ground with a pale face, and Xie Hongmei's face was flushed with anger, and she was competing with a grown man for a box of instant noodles.

Jing Tong knew at a glance that the two sides probably pushed and shoved. He hurried over to help Professor Jing up, and said angrily, "Who are you?"

Xie Jinning has already recognized that the tallest person among them is the landlord, and he has already guessed a little bit in his heart, and said with a smile: "Landlord, we have written a one-year contract and paid all the money. You can just come into the room now What's the reason?" He squinted his eyes, at that time the time was too short to find someone to change the lock, but he was negligent these days.

The three of them opened the door with the key on the grounds of inspecting the room, and they were already jealous when they saw the things in the room.Seeing that Professor Jing was weak and Xie Hongmei was a woman with little strength, they talked about paying the rent with things.Who knows that Xie Hongmei looks young, beautiful and fashionable, but she is even more shrew than a shrew, who would suffer?The two sides couldn't help but collided, and Professor Jing went up to persuade him but was pushed back.

Xie Hongmei breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the savior, and sat down on the tiled floor, crying and complaining: "These people are robbers! You are back, Jinning!"

Xie Jinning frowned and said, "Mom, go to the house with uncle first, and I'll talk to the landlord."

He glanced at Ajie calmly, and Ajie knew what he meant, so he stepped forward to help Xie Hongmei go to the inner room.Jing Tong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Professor Jing only had scratches on his hands. He was afraid that Xie Jinning would suffer, so he also stayed outside.

Xie Jinning said politely: "Landlord, sit down. It's not easy for everyone at this time. Be considerate of each other." Seeing his politeness, the hostility on the faces of the three people also subsided a lot, and they also sat down.

The landlord looked at the two people beside him and spoke first: "Xiao Xie, you also know that money is useless now that it's just a waste of paper. It's not as useful as a bag of instant noodles. It's special for special occasions. Of course you can continue to live here, but The rent is replaced by food."

He saw that Xie Jinning and Jing Tong were not very old, and the only adult man in the family was Professor Jing, who was also an outsider, so naturally there was nothing to taboo about.

Jing Tong hated his supposedly condescending tone of grace, and when he was about to explode, Xie Jinning pinched the palm of his hand, apparently to signal him to be calm and not to be impatient.

Xie Jinning smiled silently, and said, "How much food does the landlord think is suitable?"

"Two bags of rice, one bag of noodles, one box of instant noodles, one box of ham sausage..." the landlord hesitated and added, "For a month. These things are usually not worth much, right? I think you have a lot of stockpiles."

The author has something to say: I wrote about buying a house at the end of the day when there were people in the writing space, but it was approved, saying that buying a house is a waste.

So if I didn’t buy this article, I was robbed by the landlord ==

I'm so sleepy, I'll revise it tomorrow... Good night, everyone
