The production is slowly recovering, and the log cabins in the lake area have been built. If we are tired there and don’t want to come back, we can rest there; the temporary hearth on the roof has also become a formal equipment of concrete and tiles. The food we left behind was also buried in the soil brought back from the Lake District and spread on the roof of the building, which is now ready for growing vegetables.If we continue to develop like this, within a year we can enter the life of the agricultural civilization era, and within three years we may be able to restore part of the productivity of the steam civilization era.Of course, all these are just our predictions, or our hopes in this difficult time.The monsoon climate with the same period of rain and heat has relatively superior water and heat conditions, but the monsoon climate also has a significant feature of instability. It may not rain during the growing season when it is most needed, and it will rain continuously in the harvest season.The ancients worshiped the gods for a long time and prayed for good weather. One potential message is that the wind does not regulate the rain, and without ideal natural conditions, the development of agriculture will be in an extremely embarrassing situation.

The huts in the lake area are relatively small, and it is difficult to accommodate four people at the same time, and the large supermarket in our base area, as a piece of material-rich fat meat, does not allow all the powerful combat forces to leave, so we adopt a shift system. Xueling and I are in a group, Hitsugaya One group with Lu Qingcheng, and the other group stayed at the base to avoid losing the granary when the group went to the lake area.The water and heat conditions for planting crops in the lake area are relatively superior, and the number of freshwater fish is also considerable. The problem is that the food planted will not grow immediately. Before the food is harvested, we cannot throw away this supermarket that can be used as a food supply station. The humid natural environment in the lake area after the grain is harvested also makes it impossible for them to be stored there for a long time. No matter from which point of view, this supermarket must be preserved.

It was our turn to stay at the supermarket again, watching Hitsugaya and Lu Qingcheng drive away, I turned my gaze back to the street where there had been no zombies for ten days.The blocking battle ten days ago perfectly diverted the attention of the zombies, leaving only the instinctive zombies chasing the running car all the way forward, and when the speed of the car far exceeds them and cannot catch up, they will lose their target. lingering.Zombies are different from packs of wolves or hyenas. Predators will return to their territory after hunting failed. Zombies obviously do not have such IQ.As a result, we can now take a relaxing walk on the street.

The streets were already covered in dust, but there weren't many leaves—subtropical evergreens don't shed their leaves.The streets without dead leaves make people feel better. After walking a long way to the empty clothing store, all the clothes are sold at higher prices. I used to disapprove of buying such expensive and not necessarily expensive clothes. Good-looking clothes, now there is no such worry, everything is free, if you put on a piece of clothing that doesn't feel right, you can just change it.Trying on these clothes one by one in front of the mirror, my heart that should have been happy sank a little bit.

No one is there anymore.Perhaps apart from us, the city really is already dead.Two months before the disaster, we were still making final preparations for the college entrance examination. Once we came home from self-study late at night, looking at the brightly lit night scene, we would feel unreasonable sadness in our hearts. But now, in the moonless night, Whenever you open your eyes, what you see through the glass walls of the supermarket is always a blank darkness.

This is the doomsday wasteland.Even the most pessimistic belief that it will come and the preparations for the most terrifying future that keeps being mentioned in science fiction movies cannot really overcome the fear.Cities that disappeared in an instant, local earthquakes, zombies brought by the purple mist, and plagues caused by a large number of corpses that were left unattended, no matter what it was, it was enough to wipe out the survivors who thought they had escaped the disaster.Those who firmly believe that the United States and the Soviet Union will break out in a war at all costs and have made full preparations are probably in the same mood.I finally understand that the fear of the protagonist in "I Am Legend" is rooted in loneliness rather than death. I can't bear such suffocating loneliness with my sister and friends by my side, let alone a doctor who exists alone in an abandoned city?

It was right or wrong to drive away the survivor convoy ten days ago. Now I can no longer judge. At that time, I only thought about not allowing them to share our resources, but I never thought that human beings are always social creatures. Single people are inevitable. will fall into loneliness.Even if the matter has come to this point, there is no way to undo it even if you regret it. You can only wait for new partners to join, and hope that they can be more normal.

Even if I walk to the exit of the block, I will not encounter zombies anymore. I can stand here and watch the bridge about 300 meters away. The water there has returned to clarity, and freshwater fish are happily multiplying.Humans are really fragile compared to other creatures. In the Chernobyl catastrophe zone, there are rats and pigs within a month, and humans still cannot settle there until today.

Think about it too, we have come down from the tree and evolved to the present in the history of millions of years. From the moment the earliest human beings picked up the stone, it has been destined that our body is not as good as the beast.Human beings rely on the wisdom of collective cooperation to survive. In the long history, human beings have learned to sew clothes, learn to build houses, and learn to make weapons. These tools extend and strengthen human organs. After these tools help or protect The human society in the world is developing rapidly, but human beings themselves are becoming more and more fragile.

survive.In this wasteland of the last days, there are no more requirements, but simply, to survive.

Looking up at the sky, the height of the dark clouds was lowered again.It will rain soon. I don't know if the thunder will attract the zombies, but even if that happens, it doesn't matter. Thunderstorms happen in a large area, not just in this dark cloud Underneath, the roar of thunderstorms can be heard tens of kilometers away, so how the zombies will judge is not a big problem.At this time, maybe I am not concerned about zombies but thunderstorms. Is there any tool on the top floor that I haven't put away in time? Is Xue Ling's box with the sniper gun still left there?

I locked the door and closed all the windows when I left the clothing store.I took the lock casually from the supermarket. Even if it is impossible for someone to steal it here, I feel relieved.And in this kind of thunderstorm weather, it is more important to prevent these clothes from getting damp and moldy.Now the whole street is almost the property of the four of us, so we must protect it carefully.

Strange to say, it hasn't rained here for 20 days since the Doom Epoch happened. 20 days of sunny weather is not surprising at all in the monsoon climate zone, but I saw the cashier’s diary on the checkout counter of the supermarket. Two days before the era of destruction, he wrote that there had been 38 consecutive days of drought. If he It was written as a matter of fact, and the drought was far too long.Looking back on the days when we were in the mountains, it was also strangely sunny. I seemed to see an invisible big net cast from the sky to the ground, bringing the ignorant human beings into the darkness called destruction.

Could it be that the Ruin Ji was not an accident, but was planned long ago?

As soon as this idea came up, I scared myself.A planned era of destruction?This destruction is obviously man-made. Could it be that some heads of state are plotting to destroy the world?The war is going on, and China is at a disadvantage as the warring side, but even if it loses this battle, it will lose at most 20 square kilometers of land. I don't think the leaders will exchange 20 million for 960.More importantly, the wars on both sides were carried out with extreme restraint, and the captives were captured to report to the country that their side treated the captives preferentially for fear of being labeled as abusing captives by international public opinion. Such a country would suddenly decide to destroy the world. It's so puzzling.What's more, even the third-tier cities whose national rankings may not necessarily reach the top two hundred have been devastated. The previous two hundred larger cities must have been reduced to ashes. With such strength, I'm afraid it can only be One of the United States and Russia.It is wrong to say that, because Russia is confronting Eastern Europe and it is too late to embrace China at this time, and the United States will not suddenly decide to get involved in the war and beat China together when the allies are still suppressing China. This is not in line with the United States. global strategy.

So, are they aliens?The words of aliens can explain the magical vines and zombies brought by the purple mist, but in this case, why did Xue Ling take me to flee to the mountains in a hurry?Only natural disasters and man-made disasters can be predicted and responded to. It is impossible for alien invasion to tell some human beings to hide in areas where they will not be affected.

I turned around and wanted to go back to the supermarket, when a sharp sound came from the air.

The sound was like a drawn-out siren, so sharp that it made people hairy.If there is a sound that is closest to it, it is an air raid siren.I looked up at the sky, and there was nothing in the sky except that dark cloud.

A premonition of crisis suddenly came to my mind, and I subconsciously glanced back at the end of the block. This glance almost scared me silly—through the broken wall, I could see a purple cloud appearing about 500 meters away, An unhurried speed spread outward.

Purple mist!An unknown disaster carrying a large number of alien creatures!

"Sure enough, I can't do it without me, but I'm scared and at a loss when I see Ziwu."

"Aren't you in a mall?"

"Why do you have the illusion that I will let you run around alone in the last days? I followed you after you left the shopping center. It's just that my tracking skills are relatively good. I just didn't expect Ziwu to be here at this time. Appeared. It’s true that Xiaoyu standing here with a crying expression is cute, but it’s better not to cry at this time. Let’s... let’s save our lives before we talk about anything else.”

Jinjiang's harmony point is really strange, it's fine with sniper, shot, gun, and even Nepalese, Er, Army, Knife can only be displayed by adding points like this.
