How to survive in the wasteland of human cubs

Feng Chen spread the sheets, took the toiletries, and took Yan Bubu to take a bath.

There are still quite a few people in the men's bathhouse. There are a total of thirty compartments, and only one compartment is empty.Feng Chen didn't want to be crowded with Yan Bubu, so he let him wash first, and put the change of clothes and toiletries in the wooden cabinet.

"What about you?" Yan Bubu asked hastily.

Feng Chen said: "I'll wait in the water room next door, and come in when there is space."

Yan Bubu, who had already entered the cubicle, immediately went out: "Then I will wait with you."

Feng Chen had no choice but to say: "I'll just stand here and wait for a seat, instead of going to the water room, you go in and wash."

Yan Bubu just entered the cubicle, but he was still not at ease, for fear that Feng Chen would leave quietly and would call out for brother later.If Feng Chen answered two seconds later, a wet head would poke out from the side of the curtain to see if he was still there.

The bathhouse was filled with mist, and there was the sound of rushing water everywhere. Just as Feng Chen was about to stand at the door, the curtain behind him moved, and someone came out.

When there was an empty compartment, Feng Chen moved two steps to the side to make way for the people behind him, and prepared to enter the compartment.After waiting for a few seconds, there was no movement, and I couldn't help turning my head to look, and saw a middle-aged man in a blue sweatshirt.

The middle-aged man held a basin containing toiletries in his hand, and water was still dripping from his hair. He stood motionless in front of the curtain, his eyes staring straight ahead.

After seeing his face clearly, Feng Chen was stunned for a moment.

The face was blue and white, the eyes were bloodshot, and the circles around the eyes were purple and black, as if they had not had a good rest for many days.

The middle-aged man walked slowly towards the entrance of the bathhouse, and the plastic slippers dragged across the ground, leaving wet footprints one by one.He was holding a basin in his right hand, and a towel was on his left arm. The towel quickly slipped to the ground, but he didn't feel it at all, and continued to walk forward.

"Your towel fell off." Feng Chen couldn't help reminding.

The middle-aged man stopped where he was, and it took him a while to react. He turned around slowly, squatted down, picked up the towel, and continued walking towards the door.

Looking at his back, Feng Chen felt an indescribable weirdness, and subconsciously became vigilant.

When the middle-aged man was about to reach the door, he stopped again, his chest rose and fell sharply, and there was a snoring sound in his throat that seemed to be blocked by phlegm, and he seemed to be in pain.He raised his hand to cover his throat, the basin in his hand clattered to the ground, and items such as toothbrush and soap rolled to the ground.

Feng Chen saw his side face, on the face that was originally only blue and white, some dark black blood vessels like spider webs had quickly climbed up.His heart skipped a beat, his eyes fixed on the middle-aged man in the blue shirt, and his right hand reached for the dagger behind his waist.

But after feeling for nothing, he remembered that he left the dagger in the room when he went out because he had to take a bath.

The middle-aged man's body began to twitch, and there was a loud and strange noise from his mouth. Feng Chen stepped back step by step, his eyes flicked around quickly, trying to find something to hold in his hand.

At this moment, the curtain of the compartment next to the middle-aged man was lifted, and someone came out after taking a shower.While wiping his head with a towel, the man stopped and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Don't go up, stay away from him."

As soon as Feng Chen yelled this sentence, he saw the middle-aged man suddenly turn around, roaring and rushing towards the man.

He was too quick this time, before the man could react, his face was bitten, and under the severe pain, he let out a scream.

The middle-aged man threw him to the ground, biting desperately like a wild beast, and the bitten man also struggled desperately, screaming and hitting with his fists and kicking with his feet, but he couldn't get away no matter what.

When the people in the bathhouse heard the movement, they poked their heads out of the cubicles one after another. After seeing this scene, they all screamed in shock.

The bathroom was empty, only two mops were placed against the wall. Feng Chen couldn't find anything else for a while, so he swung a mop and threw it at the middle-aged man lying on the man.

With a snap, the plastic handle broke into several pieces, Feng Chen picked up the empty basin on the ground again, and smashed it on his head.

No matter whether it was the plastic handle or the plastic basin, it didn't have any effect on the middle-aged man. He was still crazily biting the person under him.And in this short period of time, that person's entire face had been bitten to a bloody mess.

The people in the compartment also rushed out a few brave people, but they were completely naked, and couldn't find anything to attack, so they could only go forward and pull, trying to separate the two.

The middle-aged man raised his head suddenly, his eyes were black, as if he wanted to suck people in, his mouth was full of blood, and there was a small piece of meat hanging from the corner of his mouth.

"Fuck me!"

Several people who were still tugging at him were terrified and retreated one after another. Feng Chen, terrified, also retreated to Yan Bubu's cubicle, and hugged Yan Bubu who was already standing outside the curtain.

"This fucking...this fucking is not human."

The middle-aged man suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the person closest to him.The man was as slippery as an eel, slipping away from his hand.

"Fuck, luckily I'm covered in soap all over my body."

There was an instant commotion in the men's bathroom, like a pot of boiling water, and everyone started rushing out at the same time.Those who are fastidious don’t forget to grab a piece of clothing and wrap it around their waist while running, while those who are not so fastidious just run naked.

Feng Chen also rushed towards the door with Yan Bubu in his arms, the middle-aged man just turned around at this moment, facing Yan Bubu who was lying on Feng Chen's shoulder.

Yan Bubu and he opened their mouths to shout at the same time, but one screamed in terror and the other roared like a beast.

The middle-aged man rushed towards the two of them, Feng Chen kicked back and kicked him hard in the chest.While he was staggering backwards, he rushed out of the men's bathroom with Yan Bubu in his arms.

Outside is the water room. The people in the water room saw a group of naked men rushing out of the men's bathroom, and heard someone shouting to kill someone. Although they didn't know what happened, they screamed and rushed to the gate.

There were also people pouring out of the women's bathhouse opposite, but they were dressed even at this moment, and at least wrapped themselves in a towel.

The gate was not spacious, and when everyone was scrambling to get out, it was actually blocked and no one could get out.Some people near the door fell and immediately stepped on several feet on their backs.

Feng Chen hugged Yan Bubu in the crowd and was pushed and swayed from side to side. He could only spread his elbows as far as possible to leave a space for himself and Yan Bubu, and at the same time try to stabilize his body so as not to fall.

There were constant screams from behind. It was the person at the back who was bitten, but the front couldn't get out, and everyone was trapped here.

In the chaos, there were three gunshots at the door, accompanied by spatial echoes, which made people's eardrums ache.Everyone stopped and continued to move forward, the chaotic scene seemed to be paused.

"come out."

Several soldiers struggled to pull the people at the door out, and then separated the crowd behind, Major General Lin strode in.

Feng Chen hugged Yan Bubu and stood to the side, watching Major General Lin go straight to the door of the men's bathhouse, raised his gun without hesitation, pointed the trigger inside and pulled the trigger.

After a gunshot, the men's bathhouse was instantly quiet. Several soldiers rushed in, and a person was quickly carried out.

The crowd retreated one after another to make way for a wider passage, and Feng Chen could tell at a glance that they were carrying the middle-aged man in the blue shirt.

The blue shirt on his body was already spattered with blood, but it belonged to someone else. His face was still hideous, but there was a bullet hole in the middle of his forehead, and purple-black blood was gurgling out.

Another group of soldiers rushed in from outside the house, carried the three bitten people up to the bathhouse, and trotted out the gate.

The crowd was still silent, and Major General Lin also walked towards the door, but suddenly turned around at the door: "At nine o'clock tonight, everyone in the hive will gather at the square on the ground floor. I have something to say."

After all the people in the bathhouse dispersed, the cleaner entered the men's bathhouse tremblingly, rinsed off the residual blood on the floor with a hose, and then left tremblingly.

Yan Bubu's body was still full of foam, but he was very resistant to entering the men's bathroom, so Feng Chen put him on the laundry table and stood there, went to the water boiler to get half a basin of boiling water, then mixed it with cold water, and rinsed off the foam on his body. Lose.

The change of clothes and toiletries were still in the wooden cabinet in the bathroom, Feng Chen only went to fetch Yan Bubu's clean clothes, helped him put them on, and asked him to go back to his room first.

"What about you?" Yan Bubu asked.

Feng Chen said: "I haven't taken a shower yet, I'll go back after I take a shower."

There is no one in the bathhouse now, it is safe, and he happened to take a bath.

Yan Bubu didn't want to leave Feng Chen now, so he said, "Then, then I'll wait for you here."

When Feng Chen took a bath, Yan Bubu was standing at the door of the men's bathroom.The scene of the middle-aged man biting people in the bathroom just now is still vivid in his memory. He dared not go in, but he didn't want to leave either, so he could only stand at the door, staring at Feng Chen's face from under the curtain of the partition. Cut off the calf.

"elder brother."

"Ah."

"elder brother."

"Ah."

"elder brother."

Feng Chen was brushing his hair, but Yan Bubu didn't hear it, and Yan Bubu suddenly raised his voice: "Brother!"

Didn't get any response.

"Brother!" Yan Bubu shouted suddenly.

"Yes."

Yan Bubu heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Why didn't you agree when I called you just now?"

Feng Chen wiped the water from his face: "I was flushing just now, I didn't hear it."

"You said you were going to flush the water before you flushed it! But you didn't say it."

Feng Chen was a little impatient: "When did we say we need to say something in advance before flushing?"

"Let's start now, and we will talk about flushing in the future."

Feng Chen didn't want to speak, he thought it was a bit silly, but he could hear that Yan Bubu was really scared, so when he stuck his head under the water column, he said in advance: "It's flushing."

"understood."

After taking a shower, Feng Chen saw that the laundry room was so quiet, so he simply washed the dirty clothes, and returned to the room after drying them.

He was sitting on the edge of the bed wiping his hair, Yan Bubu was leaning beside him, and asked, "Why did that man bite you just now?"

Feng Chen was also thinking about this question: "Should they be infected with some kind of virus? Or... mutated?"

"Infection... what is an infection?"

Feng Chen took off the veil, his black hair was messy on his head, his face was still handsome, but his cold temperament was reduced a bit.

"Just some terrible disease," he said.

Yan Bubu nodded half-understood, and asked again: "Will the person who was bitten by him die? The uncle who was bitten this morning died."

Feng Chen couldn't be sure, he just said: "Anyway, we're going to gather on the ground later, this is what Major General Lin should talk about, and we'll know when the time comes."

Anyway, he was waiting, Feng Chen went to the cabinet, took out a thin sheet of iron the size of a book page, put it on the toolbox and sat beside the bed, clamped the edge of the sheet with small pliers and twisted it in.

Yan Bubu had seen this piece of iron sheet before, and asked curiously, "Is this what you were looking for when you said you were looking for something?"

"En." Feng Chen replied without raising his head.

Yan Bubu looked at the movements of his hands: "Then what are you doing?"

Feng Chen pinched off the iron sheet and replied casually: "You will know when the time comes."

The two were talking, when a sharp bell rang, and at the same time there was a voice broadcast: "Everyone in the hive must come to the ground to gather immediately, there is an important matter to be notified, and those with cold symptoms stay in the room, waiting for the medical soldiers to go to check... "

There were chaotic footsteps in the corridor, Feng Chen said to Yan Bubu: "Let's go, let's go down."

Feng Chen stepped over the bed to open the door, Yan Bubu dug into the foot of the bed as usual, and said hello to the cipher box hanging under the bed: "Little Hive, we'll be back later."

There is no distinction between night and day in the underground resettlement site. Looking from the hive building, there are only a few searchlights falling from the sky. Where there is no light, it is dim and misty.

But now it was completely bright, with lights shooting out from all directions, illuminating the entire underground space as if it were daytime.

Many people have lived here since the earthquake, and have never seen such a strong light again. They are both uncomfortable and excited, and they want to return to the ground even more urgently.

People in the corridor lined up to go down one by one, and there were not enough lifts. By the time Feng Chen and Yan Bubu got on the lifts, more than ten minutes had passed.

When the elevator descended, people around began to whisper.

"Hey, tell me, what happened to that person in the bathhouse? There was also an accident in the dining hall this morning. Could it be a severe infectious disease?"

Someone said in a decadent tone: "What kind of infectious disease is obviously a zombie. Now that there are zombies, the world will be played. Anyway, people will mutate if they are bitten. One bite ten, ten bites one hundred, and everyone is finished."

"Don't talk nonsense, look at that woman in the morning, she bit his husband and his mother-in-law before going out, and now both of them are being treated at the medical point, have you heard that they have mutated?"

The man sneered: "Whether it has changed or not, the military will tell you?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, someone beside him interrupted: "Don't guess, anyway, Major General Lin will talk about this later, and you will understand then? But I tend to think that this is a disease, not something Zombies, because I know both of them. I said before that I had a cold, dizziness and fever. Now that I think about it, it is not a cold, but another illness. Are you talking about it without listening to the radio? People with cold symptoms stay in the room Inside, wait for the medical soldiers to go to check."

Feng Chen originally just stared straight ahead indifferently, but after hearing the call, he keenly caught the word "fever", and turned his head to look at the speaker.

At the corner of the elevator, a girl gently pulled down the aunt next to her, and called out uneasily in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Mom."

"Hush." ​​The aunt looked around, then leaned into her ear and said, "Shut up, you just have a cold, don't stay in the room, lest you be taken to the medical station by the Western Union Army."

The girl lowered her head and said nothing more.

The elevator reached the bottom floor, and everyone went out, Feng Chen led Yan Bubu to the back, looking a little preoccupied.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, he reached out and touched his forehead.

Fortunately, he hasn't had a fever for a long time, so he doesn't count as having cold symptoms.

The entire ground was almost full of people, even the large machines were filled with people. A small square platform was built in the middle of the field, surrounded by soldiers with live ammunition.

Feng Chen and Yan Bubu took a random position, and as soon as they stood up, Major General Lin walked onto the platform.He looked cold and serious, his eyes slowly swept down, and the crowd who were still talking in low voices also fell silent.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Yan Bubu was surrounded by people, he was blocked from seeing outside, so he asked Feng Chen curiously.

There was a quarry machine next to Feng Chen, and several children were sitting on the horizontal iron arms.Seeing that there was still room on the iron arm, he lifted Yan Bubu up and sat on the empty seat.

Yan Bubu's vision widened now, he swung his legs happily in the air, and smiled at Feng Chen, but he heard the person next to him whispering, "Hey, Suoya."

Yan Bubu's body froze, he knew it was the fat man without turning his head to look, so he pretended not to hear, and just stared at the square platform in front of him.

"Haoya, hey, Suoya." The little fat man persisted, and the boys beside him also laughed.

Although Yan Bubu didn't turn his head, and didn't make a sound, his body was very straight, even a little stiff, and his two hands tightly grasped the iron arms under him.

"Huoya, don't pretend you didn't hear me, I'm calling you—" The little fat man was approaching Yan Bubu with a playful smile, but suddenly stopped talking.

Feng Chen was standing next to Yan Bubu by the iron arm, looking at him indifferently.Although there was no emotion in that gaze, it still gave the little fat man a chill. Sensitively aware that this person was not easy to mess with, he stopped talking embarrassingly.

The little fat man stopped staring at people and calling Kuoya, Yan Bubu exhaled lightly, his tense body softened a little, and gently pressed the hole in the lower front tooth with his tongue.

There have been two hard little points, and the teeth should grow out soon.

"Don't use your tongue, the president is crooked." Feng Chen suddenly turned his head and spoke softly.

His voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear him, but Yan Bubu immediately pursed his lips and stopped pushing with his tongue.

Major General Lin began to speak at this time, a slightly low voice came out from the loudspeaker, with a slight tremor.

"Silence, silence. Ladies and gentlemen, I called you here because you all live in underground settlements, and you don't know the situation outside. Here I will briefly talk about it. There are two things I want to say tonight. Now Let's talk about the first thing first."

He didn't have any opening remarks, he just paused for a moment and went straight to the topic: "Although the temperature at the resettlement site is suitable, the ground has actually reached a high temperature of almost 70 degrees."

As soon as this sentence fell, the audience was in an uproar. Everyone seemed to explode, and exclamation and discussion sounded one after another.

Major General Lin made a quiet gesture, and continued: "The underground resettlement site accommodates a total of 5000 people, including more than 2 ordinary people affected by the disaster, and 3000 soldiers from the Western Union Army. How much rice noodles will be consumed by these 5000 people every day?" And vegetables, I believe you can do the math yourself. The food stockpiled by the Western Union Army has been consumed a lot, and the rest will not last long, so we built a temperature-controlled garden in the development zone and planted corn and potatoes. Now I want to say a good The news is that the first batch of potatoes is about to mature, and it should be able to pick up the gap after the food shortage."

Major General Lin's words made everyone's mood ups and downs. When they heard that the first batch of potatoes were almost ripe, they all heaved a sigh of relief.But they all knew that good news would be followed by bad news, which made their hearts hang high again.

"The bad news is that the situation outside is very bad, and the severity has exceeded your imagination."

Major General Lin's sharp gaze slowly swept across the audience: "The temperature is too high. The fresh water on the ground has been greatly reduced. The inner city river has completely evaporated and dried up. Fortunately, there is an underground river in Haiyun City. At present, it is not affected by the high surface temperature. However, if the high temperature continues to rise, no one can tell whether the underground river will stop flowing."

"No one can survive on the ground without wearing thermal insulation suits. Our soldiers must wear thermal insulation suits every day when they go to the ground, so it is not particularly difficult."

"The really difficult thing is that some animals and plants have mutated without your knowing, and will attack humans. And our soldiers have sacrificed more than 400 in this short period of time."

"They didn't die from heat or earthquakes, but from creatures that normally didn't pose a threat."

The audience fell silent, and no one made a sound. Major General Lin slowly spit out a series of names:

"Hamsters, cacti, ginkgo trees, cats, etc., those once harmless, docile, and familiar animals and plants have all changed beyond recognition."
