Natural Disaster Apocalypse

If stuffing himself with something to eat can divert Mu Nan's attention, then Qin Huai naturally let him come, until he was so full that he almost couldn't eat any more, then he pulled away the hand he had never taken away from covering his mouth. Wiping his hands with a paper towel, he swallowed the last piece of crispy meat or fried pork belly strips in his mouth, and almost burped.

After feeding Qin Huai, he was in a good mood when he suddenly heard Jian Chu beside him say, "I seem to smell meat?"

Mu Nan froze, subconsciously looked at Qin Huai, he stuffed it into his mouth directly through a mask, and what he was feeding wasn't something with a strong smell, could he smell it?

Yu Zibai took out his backpack from the trailer, unzipped it and said, "Are you hungry? Let's eat something."

Jian Chu shook his head: "I won't eat it, the pot helmet I ate just now hasn't been digested yet, it's hard, and it still hurts to hold it against my stomach." He counted his teeth, but he didn't count his digestion ability.

Yu Zibai said: "Drink some water, it looks like you won't be on your way today, just take a rest."

Qin Huai wiped Mu Nan's hand several times, then sniffed it under his nose, only smelled the smell of wet wipes, not the slightest smell of food, and then let go of him: "Go to sleep for a while, I'll call you back if you want to go."

Mu Nan nodded, Qin Huai took out a big mat from the trailer that he had used at home before, asked Jian Chu and Yu Zibai to get up together, put the mat on the ground, and half blocked their backs, so that they could To prevent some small bugs or rats and cockroaches from crawling out of the gaps in the ruins behind them and biting them by surprise, they could just sleep on the remaining half of the cushions, so as not to stain the bodies that had just been wiped clean.

Seeing Qin Huai taking insect repellent water in his bag, Mu Nan couldn't help but ask Jian Chu: "Are you really good at nose?"

Jian Chu nodded: "Yes, the sense of smell is very developed. During the period of smog, as long as your house opened fire, I would always suffer."

Mu Nan let out an ah.

Jian Chu sighed: "You don't know how poor we were at that time, we couldn't afford meat at all, and we had to struggle for a long time before placing an order for vegetables, and we had to eat vegetables for less than 100 yuan for a week. What can I buy for a hundred yuan? A catty of radishes and a handful of green leafy vegetables cost almost a hundred. I live frugally every day. It’s okay if I can’t smell or see it. But your family cooks shrimp today and stews big bone soup tomorrow. , still eat hot pot, right, you have eaten hot pot at home, the spicy butter pot smell in the middle of the night, smelling that smell, I am so hungry, I am so hungry that I want to eat a bowl every night You can only sleep with clear water noodles, and you can’t even put a tomato on it, so you think I’m miserable.”

Mu Nan nodded: "It's too miserable. If I knew you so well at that time, I would have often called you over to eat together."

Jian Chu smiled and said: "I can tell that if your brother didn't come back, you wouldn't be able to get acquainted with us. Don't look at your brother who doesn't seem to talk much, but he is much better at making friends than you. You It looks easy to get along with, unless someone else takes the initiative and your enthusiasm is not dampened by your initial indifference, otherwise this friend will not be able to make friends."

Mu Nan smiled embarrassedly. He is indeed not good at it, or he doesn't like making friends very much, so he feels that the maintenance of relationships requires dedication. There is no such thing as you appear when you need it, and you can let it go when you don't. However, this process of maintaining the relationship is a bit of entertainment for him, and he feels very tired. He just wants to live in his own world. But now with Qin Huai, after slowly getting acquainted with Jian Chu and the others, they feel that making friends is not as troublesome as imagined.

Holding a bottle of insect repellent water, Qin Huai said to him, "Close your eyes and breathe."

The two quickly closed their eyes, and then they were sprayed all over from head to toe. After spraying their fronts, Qin Huai asked them to turn around and spray their backs again. After he finished spraying twice, Mu Nan asked Yu Zibai to stand with Qin Huai, and sprayed them again from the beginning to the end. Fortunately, the insect repellent water didn't smell bad, and it smelled like mint. After spraying it like this, I felt more at ease when I slept.

Jian Chu looked at the half-bottle of insect repellent water after a while, feeling a little distressed: "It's too fast, spray less next time."

Mu Nan said: "It can't be saved, if it is bitten by insects, it will be over. I still have a few bottles, and it should be enough to last to the University City, but I don't know how the situation is in the University City."

Jian Chu was also a little melancholy: "I hope it's better than here. After all, there are fewer people there. I just don't know how long it will take to live in the house and sleep on the bed. The bed should be gone. How can I dig out furniture at this time?" , These things want to be reproduced, and I don’t know when to wait.”

Mu Nan lay on the mat and said, "Let's count it as a day."

Qin Huai put a small charging fan next to Mu Nan: "You sleep, I'll go and see what's going on over there."

Mu Nan pulled him: "The protective clothing is not dry yet."

Qin Huai said: "It's okay, I don't need to wear protective clothing for the time being after spraying the insect repellant, I'll ask Shi Yuanfei to ask about the situation, and I'll be back soon."

Only then did Mu Nan let go: "Stay away from those who have been bitten."

Qin Huai nodded, watched Mu Nan lie down again, and then walked towards Shi Yuanfei.

Shi Yuanfei didn't expect this kind of thing to happen suddenly, and he was in a state of desperation. When he set off, he didn't expect that more than 300 people would walk to the University City in full, and they would lose some on the way. After all, they had to go through There are many ruins, the physical strength along the way, the emergency test of facing this environment, and even the physical fitness to resist the virus. These are all very important. If any link is slightly weak, it may not be able to persist until the end.

So the first batch of people they selected who were willing to migrate in the first wave were all of good physical fitness, like Qin Huai's younger brother Mu Nan, they were all eliminated directly. If it wasn't for Qin Huai, they wouldn't be so thin and thin at all. Go the first batch. But everything was counted, but it was not counted that such a situation of being attacked by rats would happen.

Seeing Qin Huai coming over, Shi Yuanfei said in a hoarse voice, "How are you doing? The protective clothing was bitten?"

Qin Huai: "The protective clothing is blocking it. It's okay. Did you just stop here today?"

Shi Yuanfei nodded: "I can only stop. Those who were bitten can't see the problem for the time being. Many of them collided in the chaos at that time. The most serious one fell to the ground and his thigh was pierced. He can't walk anymore. It's your reaction." Quick, I thought of using fire."

Qin Huai frowned slightly: "What are you going to do next?"

Shi Yuanfei said: "I'm thinking, there must be many people who want to give up now, those who don't want to leave, maybe they will die on the road, so let's stop here, they should remember the way they came, and start again Go back to the camp, those who are seriously injured can't go, I plan to leave two soldiers to take them back to the camp, and the others will go together if they want to, whether to continue or go back is entirely up to voluntary."

Qin Huai nodded: "Then let's rest first and let us know if there is anything else."

Shi Yuanfei sighed, he has been in the army for so many years, various dangerous situations, field drills again and again, and he has done many missions on the edge of danger, but he never thought that one day, this kind of all-time Crisis and death will become the norm in life like this. Looking at those sitting on the ground looking slumped, or moaning in pain, the heart is so heavy that they are almost out of breath.

When Qin Huai came back, Mu Nan felt relieved, lying on the ground, he still didn't forget to put his hands on Qin Huai's body, seeing Qin Huai sitting leaning against him, turned to look at him: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Qin Huai said: "It's still early, you go to sleep, I'll rest for a while."

Mu Nan lay down again, and muttered: "I can't sleep either, I feel like I just woke up and fell asleep again."

Qin Huai stretched out his hand to caress the back of his neck back and forth, but the person who said he couldn't sleep just now fell into a dreamland.

Jian Chu on the side laughed at seeing it, and couldn't help giving Qin Huai a thumbs up. This is really a way to handle the younger brother, and he knew it was his own brother.

Xu Ming came back in the middle of the night. Not everyone in the team of more than 300 people was attacked by rats. The people who attacked most fiercely were those in front of them. The mice that ran out were frightened, and those who walked at the back only saw a few sporadic mice crawling on the ground. They were frightened by the sudden burst of frightened shouts and cries in front, but they fell down because of the panic. And the injuries he received were even more serious than the ones bitten by rats. The fractures were cut open by a sharp weapon to the point where stitches were required, and the wounds that directly penetrated the thighs were still pierced by a spiral steel bar. , The other end of the steel bar is still connected to the concrete wall. At this time, there are no tools, no anesthetics, and some surgical knives can't deal with such a big scene.

The other end of the steel bar is connected to the wall, and it is impossible to carry the person and the wall back together. If this is not dealt with as soon as possible, I don’t know if it will be infected and die, but it will definitely lose blood and die, but the steel bar is still a Spiral type, in the end there was really no other way but to pull the steel bar out of the man's leg by brute force.

Mu Nan was woken up by this shocking scream, the sound was so terrible that Qin Huai's hands covering his ears couldn't stop it.

Naturally, it is impossible to fall asleep immediately after waking up. Mu Nan got up and looked at the time. It was past three o'clock in the middle of the night. It was not long before they encountered the rats. It seemed to be past eleven o'clock, and they were in a hurry After a while, it means that he should have only slept for two or three hours.

A lazy bone made a loud noise, and the first thing he asked was to ask Qin Huai if he was hungry.

Qin Huai looked at him amusedly: "Are you my feeding machine?"

Mu Nan also laughed: "Isn't it your feeding machine?" Then he leaned up to him and asked in a low voice: "Is there anything you want to eat? Do you want to drink something?" He opened some beer and drinks earlier, A straw was also plugged in before it was put into the space, in order to take a quick sip or two while hiding from people.

Qin Huai shook his head, seeing that Yu Zibai and Jian Chu were also woken up by the scream just now, he said: "Eat something when you wake up, Brother Xu came over to deliver our naan just now."

Jian Chu wailed: "I feel like my stomach is rejecting it."

Yu Zibai comforted: "It's good to eat something now, just stick to it." As for the future, if production cannot be resumed, I really don't know what else humans can eat. They don't rely on mountains or seas. Among them, I am afraid that no wild vegetables have to be dug.

Qin Huai said: "Let's cook some noodles. Eat naan if you can eat it, and noodles if you can't."

Yu Zibai dug out a large bag of mushroom-flavored instant noodles from his bag: "Do you still have kimchi soup? I don't think they want to eat mushrooms. Separate the noodles from the seasoning. The seasoning can be used to make soup later." Drink." Qin Huai didn't refuse either, although he knew that Jian Chu and the others didn't have much food, but it was an attitude to take it out, and along the way, he would not let them starve to death: "Two packs of noodles are enough. , put the rest first, they eat noodles, we eat naan."

Yu Zibai nodded, and Jian Chu hurriedly said: "Let's cook the naan softer. Let's cook the naan until soft before putting in the noodles. We can also eat the naan, but don't make it too hard."

Qin Huai smiled: "Okay, boil it softer. I cooked it for the first time yesterday, so I didn't manage the timing well. Nan Nan, please bring out a can."

Mu Nan said hello, then ran to overturn the car, and took a box of canned luncheon meat from the space under cover.

Jian Chu's eyes lit up immediately: "You guys are still carrying this, won't the high temperature damage it?"

Qin Huai: "As long as the canned food is not opened, or placed under high temperature for a long time, it is generally hard to break, and the air conditioner in our house has not been cut off for a long time before."

Qin Huai poured soup packets into the pot, Yu Zibai took a bottle of mineral water and added it in, then put on the disposable gloves that Mu Nan handed over, tore three naan and threw them in, this time he tore it into pieces, as yesterday he didn't Another reason for the softness is that the torn pieces are a bit bigger, but they are all eating naan for the first time, and they have no experience, so they know it today. The luncheon meat is sliced ​​with a Swiss army knife, cut into large diced meat, and cooked in the pot, the aroma of the churning spread quickly.

When Xu Ming came back, they were throwing pancakes into the pot: "Tsk, a group of people are staring at you with green eyes."

Jian Chu: "Just stare at it, you can't stop eating for fear of others staring at you."

Yu Zibo: "Looking at the things they brought, we know that there must be a lot of food. I'm afraid they may not be willing to take it out. Those who can follow the first group of migrating troops with vigor will probably have a lot of food in their hands."

Qin Huai said: "Is it over there?"

Xu Ming shook her head: "I just did what I could."

Jian Chu helped him spray his body with disinfectant and washed his hands before asking, "Are there any casualties?"

Xu Ming: "It should be there soon. The one whose thigh was pierced may not survive."

Jian Chu only felt pain just thinking about it, and Mu Nan, who had no idea that someone had been injured so badly, suddenly showed a pained expression: "Why did you pierce your thigh? Then what do you do if you wear it? Are you going to pull it out?"

Xu Ming nodded: "Why don't you just pull it out, there is no anesthetic at all, the spiral steel bar, think about the feeling of being pulled out from the flesh, I have used all the hemostatic powder brought by the military doctor, and I am making a stretcher at the moment, just Carry it back as much as possible, if it disappears halfway, it can only be buried anywhere."

Yu Zibai hurriedly said: "Don't talk about it, you won't be able to eat any more."

Xu Ming smiled and said: "Then you have to get used to it. If the conditions don't improve in the future, remember the environment under the building before us, that is, in the place where the filth is piled up, you have to eat without changing your face. , otherwise you will starve to death, during a catastrophe, only those who can survive will survive to the end."

This time the naan was boiled for a long time, it was soft and full of flavor, and it was much more delicious than the one eaten whole yesterday. Even Mu Nan and Jian Chu didn't eat less, and each of them finished a bowl. I was fed, and I didn’t eat much, but there was still a little soup at the bottom of the pot that I couldn’t finish. Brother Xu, who happened to be in charge of their brigade, came over. Seeing that he didn’t mind, he poured out the last bit of soup gave him.

Old Xu laughed out a few creases on his face, and sighed: "As long as there is still food to eat, what do you mind, thank you, I will find a small soldier to share."

Mu Nan said, "What's the soldier's name? We don't know his name yet."

Old Xu said: "The surname is Qin, and the name is Qin Bing. We all call him Xiaobing."

Mu Nan snorted, "I have the same surname as my brother."

Old Xu smiled and said: "But they are definitely not from the same family. The little soldier is not as handsome as your brother."

Mu Nan thought in his heart that it was for sure, although that little soldier was not bad-looking, he could be considered thick-browed and big-eyed, but he was only as good-looking as a passer-by, and his brother was more handsome.

After eating and drinking, he took a short break. The situation over there hadn't been settled yet. Mu Nan and the others sat in a daze for a while, and then someone came over and said that they needed to rearrange the team.

Even if there are no injuries on the body, some people plan to give up after being so frightened by the rats. Perhaps the intensity of walking on the first day exceeds their expectations and physical endurance. , So I chose to go back, and some people were bitten by rats, and they had already collapsed, and they didn't have the endurance to continue the long journey, so they also gave up.

Of course, some were slightly injured or bitten by rats, but those who did not believe in their fate were unwilling to give up. These people were arranged into the last team, and two military doctors followed behind to check their conditions at any time.

In the end, it was counted that less than 200 people were willing to move on, and one-third retreated. People have a herd mentality. Some people may not want to leave, but seeing more and more people leaving, they think about this. It was almost cold on the road on the second day after I came out, and I didn't know what terrible things would happen on the road ahead, so I couldn't help walking along.

Those who left, Shi Yuanfei, arranged for two soldiers to lead the way, and distributed them nearly three days of rations. Although it only took one day to come here before, everyone was wounded, and the journey back might be slow. There are a lot of food, so three days of food is enough.

The remaining people rearranged the teams, and the number of people in each team was reduced a little. Twenty-five people are in a team, and two soldiers are still in charge of the entire brigade, because the few teams that walked in front suffered heavy losses, were injured, and were frightened There are more people in the team, and there are also many people who retreated, so we broke up the personnel, especially those who were unhappy in the same team before, and this time they were specially separated.

Earlier, Jian Chu saw that the two brothers with a white dog were assigned to the first team. It seemed that there was a man in their team who was always angry with the two brothers. He even said that if he kept a Chinese meal sooner or later, and said that this catastrophe was a catastrophe, his parents would still keep a dog regardless, and they simply put themselves on the moral high ground to criticize there.

The young man couldn't hold back his anger, and wanted to hit someone several times, but was stopped by his brother. After swallowing his anger for a day, he encountered this incident. He could rearrange the team and asked to change the team immediately. When a person walks in a team, he really wants to kill someone.

Mu Nan liked dogs very much. When he saw the two brothers walking over with a dog, he took a second look, but the white dog was obviously not a Labrador, it looked like a pastoral dog, so he asked Qin Huai: "Brother, can you tell what breed of dog this is?"

Qin Huai looked at it: "It looks a bit like a Xiasi dog."

Mu Nan had never heard of this kind of dog, and his head was filled with question marks: "Is there such a breed?"

They were not far apart, so when Qin Huai told the dog's breed, the young man was surprised. Seeing them, they were just curious, but they didn't have any malice.

Qin Huai said: "Yes, there is a very powerful breed in our country. In the past, many hunters specially raised Xiasi. This breed of dog is an expert hunter. It is famous for its lethality and ferocity."

Mu Nan immediately moved to Qin Huai's side. He liked dogs, but he would be afraid of dogs that were too fierce, and this dog looked really fierce.

Because it will be dawn soon, everyone quickly organized the team. The first team is still in charge of Lao Xu and Qin Bing. When they were patrolling here before, they had already seen some animals that could avoid the sun. After the place and staff were arranged, Lao Xu called everyone to pack up and change places: "I have already delivered one meal just now, and the next meal will be delivered before I wake up and go on the road tomorrow. I have the supplies I handed in before. The list of personnel, I will check with you again later, and if you have any questions, please come to me, now pack up your belongings, and we will find a place to settle down first."

Qinhuai and the others have very simple things. The mats on the floor can be rolled up and taken away on a trailer. Yesterday they found a bank, but today they found a hotel. The hotel is not seriously damaged, even upstairs. Some collapsed, and there were cracks in the walls, but the hall was supported by a few pillars, and it was still possible to accommodate twenty people to avoid the sun during the day, but there were too many broken stones and bricks on the ground, and they needed to be cleaned up a little before they could sleep.

When Qin Huai and the others were cleaning the ground, the two brothers came over with a dog, but they stood a certain distance away, pointed to a corner not far from them and asked, "Can we sleep over there?"

Qin Huai glanced at them, then looked back at Mu Nan, and said, "Yes, but please take care of the dog, my brother is a little afraid of such a big dog."

The two heaved a sigh of relief. The place they chose to sleep just now was crowded away by many people in disgust. Some directly occupied the place they liked, and some simply asked them to change places, saying that they were afraid of their dogs. People have no choice but to bring the dog to find a new place. This new team does not know how many days they will stay together in the future. It will be better if there are no conflicts with people. As far as the team's bad words are concerned, it's not bad.

Seeing the white dog obediently sitting next to its owner at the beginning, Jane couldn't help but move closer and asked, "What's its name?"

The younger boy said, "Niu Niu."

Jian Chu subconsciously glanced under the dog's stomach, and asked uncertainly, "Is it a boy?"

The boy smiled and said, "Yes, it's a boy, but it's called Niuniu."

Jian Chu is obviously good at socializing, and after a while, he chatted: "You are also brothers, we also have a pair of brothers here, and they also have different surnames."

The boy said: "We have the same mother and different father, so we have different surnames."

Jian Chu suddenly looked at Mu Nan, and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, I don't seem to have asked you, why do you have different surnames from your brother, one with your father and the other with your mother?"

Mu Nan looked at Jian Chu in a daze: "Don't you know that my brother and I are not real brothers?"

Jian Chu was taken aback for a moment: "You guys are not relatives?!"
