After a careful search, Su Changxing found an unopened bag of cereal, about 500 grams, in the cupboard in the corner.

This made him feel happy. Since he came to this world, he has been in a state of insufficient food intake.

The minimum intake of an ordinary person is about 800 calories. This is the lowest intake. It is only for survival. In the long run, it will cause serious health problems.

A bottle of Coke has 200 calories, two bottles have 400 calories, and half a box of cookies has 300 calories.

And coke is not filling, it will make him feel even more hungry.

A 500-gram pack of cereal contains about 1,300 calories, which is only enough for his food intake for the day.

Su Changxing opened the cereal and poured part of it into his mouth before chewing it dry. The taste was indeed not good, but it was enough to satisfy his hunger.

But other than that, he didn't find any drinkable water. Boiling snow water was certainly a way, but it wasn't his top priority. After all, in such a big town, it shouldn't be difficult to find some water.

Then, he found a cowboy hat and scarf from upstairs, and armed himself fully. He was not in a hurry to go out, and planned to wait until the wind and snow outside calmed down before setting off.

During this period, he found a newspaper torn in half from the corridor on the second floor. It said that a large number of people disappeared or died at night. The army had taken over the city and sealed off various northern cities as quarantine zones. Allowed to enter.

"To control the spread of the virus?"

Su Changxing thought that all this should be caused by the so-called virus, "If the city is blocked, then where did the people in the small town go?"

He could see that the family in the house left in a hurry. In the process, they had conflicts with other people, and some people died, but the others still left without stopping.

"What are they afraid of..."

Su Changxing was sure that the world was not like this originally. It might have been caused by the so-called poison, and the virus was probably just a symptom.

After more than an hour, the wind noise outside became much quieter. He knew it was time to leave, so he opened the door and walked out with a kitchen knife in his hand, looking around cautiously.

Snowflakes fell from the sky, and the streets were covered in white, silent and empty, with a thin layer of mist forming a gauze.

There are all single-family houses here, and each house has its own yard, so that there is a distance between the two houses.

Su Changxing walked along the street to the building next to it. There was an iron gate in the yard, but half of the door was twisted and broken, as if it had been hit by a car.

"anyone there?"

He stood at the door and shouted, just in case there was someone in the house, and if he went in so directly, there would be a conflict.

No one responded.

He also looked in this direction last night, and there was no light and a dark patch.

Looking back and looking around, he suddenly found that the little black cat was standing on the wall of the yard with its head stretched out, staring at him quietly, and he didn't know when it was there.

"Running around, isn't it cold?"

Su Changxing said, regardless of whether it understood or not.

"Meow?" the little black cat responded.

Generally speaking, cats are quite afraid of the cold and will hide in a corner in this kind of weather.

Su Changxing ignored it and walked straight to the main door of the house. He tried to open it, but found that it was locked. He went around to the side and found that the window was also locked.

Then, he found a shovel buried in the snow in the yard, dragged the shovel, and banged it against the window twice. Conspicuous cracks appeared on it, and twice more, followed by a clear cracking sound. , the window glass shattered and fell to the ground.

"The quality of the glass is not good either."

He reached out to unlock the window through the crack, then opened the window again, cleaned off the glass shards on it, and climbed in.

As soon as he turned in, he saw two bodies lying in the middle of the living room, and the floor was covered with blood stains.

"Someone died again...

As time passed by little by little, Kasemin was also a very talkative person. They chatted word by word, and the two sides quickly became familiar with each other.

"It's almost time now." Kasemin glanced at the green alarm clock on the table and said.

The shape of the alarm clock is quite novel. It is in the shape of an 8, with the alarm clock on top and a small mirror on the bottom.

It gave Su Changxing the illusion that this alarm clock had traveled through time.

It is difficult for a person to break through the limitations of the times, just like in an ordinary world, extraordinary people will hardly appear.

In such a world stuck in the steam age, Su Changxing was surprised that someone would design such an alarm clock.

"This was also designed by Uncle Eric. He invented this thing called an electronic clock, which is very convenient. My mother had been considering whether to replace the clock in the king tower with an electronic clock." Kasemin said with a look on his face. He said lonely, thinking of his mother.

Su Changxing smelled something unusual. This person named Eric could not be from another world. He was also a player, or a time traveler.

"What else did this man named Eric invent?" Su Changxing asked.

Kasemin showed admiration: "He invented many things. His wisdom illuminated this era. The steamships on the sea outside are all his masterpieces."

Su Changxing fiddled with the alarm clock and discovered that the energy source of this thing was not a battery, but a tube of transparent blue liquid, "What the hell."

"That's black whale oil." Kasemin said.

"Black whale oil?" Su Changxing frowned: "Is this oil extracted from whales?"

Kasemin shook his head and said, "It's not a mixture extracted from ores. It's just that the energy source invented by Uncle Eric in the early days was whale oil extracted from whales."

"Similar things were synthesized from ores later and were called black whale oil. However, whale oil is still used as the main energy source. It is purer and more stable. All ships outside use whale oil."

[Black whale oil: a mixture extracted from certain minerals and can be used as an energy source. 】

OK.

So scary.

Su Changxing realized that if this guy named Eric was not a time traveler or a player, his creativity had reached a terrifying level.

"Let's go now. It's almost time. It's just dark, so their vigilance should be at a minimum at this time." Su Changxing analyzed and said.

Most of his strength has been restored now, and he feels quite confident.

If he was actually discovered, he could still forcefully rush out.

The door to the outside of the safe room opened slowly without any sound, accompanied by an extremely weak vibration.

Su Changxing also had to admire the ingenuity of the mechanism, which seemed to use the unique runes of this world combined with the technology of the steam age.

At this time, it was already dark outside, and the moon and stars were scarce.

The guards standing around are still there, but their number is much smaller.

"Follow me." Su Changxing turned around and signaled to Kasemin.

Kasemin looked surprised when she saw Su Changxing's figure suddenly blurred and disappeared into the shadows, "You know magic!"

This was magic to her.

In their world, people who can use magic are often pagans, who have accepted the power from the demons in the screen world, and are street rats that everyone shouts and beats.

Su Changxing looked back at her and said, "This is not magic."

There were guards patrolling back and forth on the city wall. When they were far away, Su Changxing and Ka Semin slipped over from the iron roof, and the timing was perfect.

Kasemin's stealth skills are superb, she moves quickly and makes no sound. More importantly, she is in the shadows and has a low sense of presence. Even Su Changxing has difficulty detecting her position.

But if you look carefully with the naked eye, you can see it clearly.

Walking further, you come to a gate. There are four guards standing on both sides of the gate. The city above the gate.

…”

Su Changxing was not surprised. He estimated that this small town might have been covered by the virus for a long time. This tragic scene was probably caused by the virus.

Throw the body out of the window.

He began to search the building, but did not find drinkable water, but found a reservoir full of ice in the yard. The water in it should be relatively clean, but it was completely frozen into ice.

Hit the ice cube with a kitchen knife and it will make a crisp popping sound.

Ice cubes are very hard. If you want to take them out, you may not be able to just use a kitchen knife. You will have to use other corresponding tools.

At this time, he remembered that he saw a saw blade in the previous storage room. The saw blade should be able to cut off the ice in the reservoir.

So he returned to the previous house again, pulled up the saw blade, ran back and forth, and cut back and forth with the saw blade, cutting off a piece of ice piece by piece.

Zizzizi~

When the saw blade rubs against the ice, ice particles will splatter.

He put the ice cubes into a small iron pot that was just big enough to hold it, then entered the house, lit a fire next to the stove, and placed the iron pot on the upper platform of the stove.

As the temperature continued to rise, the ice cubes melted little by little, completely melting into water in about ten minutes.

Su Changxing found a cup of just the right size in the kitchen, rinsed it with a little water, and then wiped it clean with a paper towel.

Not long after, the water in the pot began to boil, making a gurgling sound, and steam overflowed from the edge of the lid.

Su Changxing licked his dry lips, scooped up half a cup of water, waited for it to cool down slightly, and took a sip. It was clean and had no smell.

Then, he drank the entire glass of water in one gulp and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Meow~"

A cat meowed from behind.

Su Changxing discovered that the little black cat had squatted behind him at some point, meowing in the direction of the iron pot.

"Want to drink water?"

"Meow~" the little black cat responded, as if it was thirsty, it raised a little hand and kept dancing.

"..."

Su Changxing felt that this little guy acted too spiritually, and it seemed that he was well taught by his original master.

He found a small bowl from the kitchen, poured some cooled water into it, and placed it in front of the little black cat.

As soon as he put the bowl on the ground, the little black cat started to drink hungrily.

"You should also know where to find food and drink, right? You even came to my place to drink..."

Su Changxing poured half the package of cereal into the cup, then added hot water and stirred. The aroma of wheat came out, and his Adam's apple moved involuntarily.

He ate the cereal in small bites, and his whole stomach became extremely warm.

"Meow~"

When the little black cat saw Su Changxing eating, he ran over and rubbed his feet with his head. The meaning was obvious.

"There's nothing for you to eat here. Stay away from me. Maybe I'll stew you when I'm really hungry."

Su Changxing lifted the kitten's neck and threw it aside.
