MTL - Natural Disaster Apocalypse-Chapter 175
Those who have a job will receive this benefit directly from their working unit, and those who do not have a job will go to the community to receive it. This is also to prevent everyone from rushing to get things, causing work pressure on the community committee and causing trouble.
There are only three people working in Qinhuai's yard, and the rest are unemployed. Those who have jobs will be paid by the unit, so they don't need to wait for the rest of those who go to work to get them together, lest they need to be accompanied by people who go to work. The rest time was delayed, and two days after receiving the notice, the people in the small courtyard mobilized en masse.
Seeing that Mu Nan was wearing a dirty mask, his clothes and trousers were torn, and his exposed arms seemed to have been plastered on the ground, Jian Chu immediately reacted, then walked aside and rubbed his hands on the ground , and then add some dirt to yourself.
The three girls are wearing long-sleeved trousers, their hair has been cut short by themselves, and they are wearing a hat. Even so, they can still be seen as girls, but it doesn't matter, the area on their side is relatively Safety, if it is in the next few districts or outer cities, girls are really dangerous.
Of all the people, only Song Jia is the cleanest. He can't wear out a piece of clothing like Mu Nan. His clothes are the least. Jian Chu was still there on the day when the earthquake happened, before others could react. He snatched a bunch of clothes when he was young. His clothes were all bought with his own money later. At that time, he didn't find many in the abandoned business district here.
"The police station is right next to the neighborhood committee, don't you need to pretend like this?"
Jian Chu looked at Song Jia: "Everyone is dirty, but you are clean and still smells like soap. What if you are targeted? You are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about you."
Mu Nan took a self-made simple fan and drove away mosquitoes while fanning the wind. It's not that they don't wear the anti-mosquito net clothes, but that if a group of people wear it like this, it will be too eye-catching. Recently, even here, it has happened. There were several incidents of entry theft. Although the situation is much better these days because of the establishment of the Self-Defense Force, why bother to cause a lot of trouble for a few minutes.
A neighborhood committee doesn't just correspond to a district. Their neighborhood committee is responsible for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th districts. Originally, the fifth district was also divided into it, but when the land was finally encircled, the fifth district was divided into the latter six districts.
After the sixth district, there is a distinction between odd and double. The odd number is on the other side, far away, and the even number is here. It continues to expand toward the outer city and the urban area.
There were a lot of people two days before the notice of receiving supplies was issued, and photos were posted in the community group. The team was going around the small square. Today, there were a little less people, but they still lined up in the center of the small square.
The distance between the crowds is not very dense. Mu Nan often sees some netizens complaining on forums on the Internet that they can’t take a bath in such a hot day. If they are in good condition, they will have a towel to wipe off their sweat with some water every day. If it's not good, it can only be dried in an air-conditioned room. It's okay if you don't wash the sweat stains once or twice. If you don't wash it for a week or two, the smell will be absolutely terrible.
If the conditions were even worse, without even an air conditioner, Mu Nan couldn't imagine how he survived those days.
But many people have survived every day in the living conditions without air conditioning.
Except for the people queuing up, with Mu Nan's eyesight, he could clearly see men and women in revealing clothes under some street lights in the distance. According to the photo, there seems to be a layer of white light on the body, which is very attractive to look at.
The eyes of many people queuing here are glued to it, and some people are even more greedy and want to use their eyes to take off other people's clothes.
Whenever someone came out of the neighborhood committee with the things they received and passed by the group of people, those people wanted to hook them as if they had hooks in their eyes.
But not everyone is worthy of what they do. It is estimated that people look at their faces. Those who are ragged and dirty will be given a big white eye by them.
It was the first time Mu Nan saw such a blatant occupation, and there were men and women, so she couldn't help but take a second look, but Qin Huai quickly covered her eyes: "Don't look around, be careful of the eye of a needle."
Among them, Song Jia, who was still in the first kiss, blushed the most, and Jian Chu pushed him with his arm: "Why are you blushing? Once the Internet resources were so developed, don't tell me, you haven't watched the X-rated s things?"
Song Jia glared at Jian Chu, but she didn't dare to look there: "Is no one in charge?"
Sun Sisi laughed: "What do you do? You thought it was in the past, as long as this matter is not too obvious, the higher authorities can only turn a blind eye and close one eye. At least our side is not too blatant , do you know what the outer city looks like?"
Song Jia was curious: "What kind?"
Tu Juan's tone on the side was cool: "It looks like the price is clearly marked."
Song Jia clicked his tongue, and Jian Chu looked at them curiously: "How do you know?"
They also hang on the Internet all day long. Although the most they read are some forums, as well as the food section and film and television section that are trying to develop their careers, but if there is news about this, it is impossible not to know at all.
Sun Sisi said: "I've been harassed before, of course I know."
It was okay when I hid at home and didn’t have much contact with the outside world. I haven’t experienced such a thing. Later, Yang Jing started a clothing business and contacted more people. Some people began to harass them through private messages, and said to introduce them to high-quality ones. Customers are definitely top-notch, and they don't pick up business indiscriminately.
In fact, this kind of thing is quite common. Before the end of the world, this kind of thing was repeatedly banned. Now, it is even more impossible not to have it. Even a catty of rice and a steamed bun can be happy. Some people may have no choice but to have no choice. Just take what you need,.
When the few people were talking, the line was almost up to them, and the speed was still very fast. Just swipe the ID card and get it. When they approached the neighborhood committee, the few people standing under the streetlight immediately looked at it with fiery eyes. Come here, and even called my little brother in their direction with a sticky voice.
But it is obvious that more people's eyes are on Qin Huai, especially those boys, seeing Qin Huai hugging Mu Nan, who is half a head shorter, their eyes are even more fiery, and they are not hiding anything. Shout out.
"Little brother, look at me, my body is delicate and soft and easy to push down."
"Want some excitement? A few flights will do."
In addition to the boys shouting, some girls' voices seemed to be laughing like hooks:
"Cute little brother, do you want to play with your sister?"
"It looks so cute, sister can play with you for free."
Mu Nan raised his head to look at Qin Huai, and Qin Huai also lowered his eyes slightly to look at him: "What's the matter?"
When he met his gaze, Mu Nan smiled softly, and said in a low voice, "Little brother, look at me, my body is delicate and soft and easy to push down~"
Qin Huai's arm around Mu Nan tightened suddenly, and whispered in his ear: "How soft is it? I'll try it when I get home."
Mu Nan, who is not afraid of being petty and murderous, reached out and poked Qin Huai's abdominal muscles: "It must be softer than brother's abdominal muscles."
Qin Huai grabbed his hand and warned, "Tired of work?"
Mu Nan immediately yelled, and then withdrew from Qin Huai's embrace: "It's our time, take it quickly, Jian Chu is waiting for you to fight the landlord."
Seeing the guy who seized the opportunity to take revenge on him and run away after lighting a fire, Qin Huai followed slowly. He has always been the most patient about eating candy cakes.
One hundred grams of dried potatoes is a small bag the size of a palm. Jian Chu looked at it and said, "I haven't made dried potatoes yet. How do I do this? Soak them in water and fry them until they soften?"
Song Jia, a kitchen rookie, didn't understand: "I'll talk about it when my brother comes back. Anyway, I don't know how to cook it. If it tastes good, then we can buy some potatoes and dry them ourselves. It seems pretty good. conserved."
When they came out of the neighborhood committee one by one, those people under the streetlights were eager to move forward. There were not many chances to meet such high-quality people, but before they approached, the tall and tall person who walked in the front The man seemed to have eyes behind him, without turning his head, he stretched out his hand behind him.
Soon a thin young man took it with quick steps, and by the time they realized it, the two had already walked away.
Mu Nan handed the dried potatoes in his hand to Qin Huai: "I thought there would still be some for 100 grams. There are so few, do you have ten slices? But one hundred grams per person, and there are so many people in the entire residential area. I guess it's also a pain in the flesh."
After Sun Sisi and the others finished collecting, everyone went home, but at this moment there was a sudden gust of wind, and there were no other shelters at all except the houses around, and there were no green plants, and it was dusty everywhere. There are many construction sites, and a slight gust of wind blows dust all over my face.
The wind came suddenly, and I couldn't cover it in time, and the sand was blown into my eyes.
Qin Huai stopped Mu Nan from rubbing his hands indiscriminately: "Close your eyes for a while, don't rush to open them, if there is sand in your eyes, go back and wash them."
Song Jia next to him took a few sips. When the wind came, he was talking to Sun Sisi, and it blew into his mouth and eyes, and even his nose felt that he had inhaled a lot of fine sand and dust.
Fortunately, the wind came in gusts, and a strong gust passed quickly. Several people walked towards the house quickly. Jian Chu also said: "It's been windy for the past two days, is it going to rain?"
Sun Sisi threw the sand out of her mouth again and again: "I hope, it's best not to rain too much, just a few days of pattering rain to thoroughly water the ground."
Mu Nan also opened his eyes again. Although he still felt a little foreign body sensation, it was not unbearable: "If it rains, will it cool down after a rain, and it will be winter?"
Jian Chu sighed: "I hope winter will come, but I don't want winter to come. I'm afraid that winter will come and the power will be cut off due to blizzard. Last time I specifically bought power bank online, but unfortunately there is no sale at all. If it breaks Electricity, then I will live a life of staring and staring again."
I walked very fast on the way back, and I arrived home in a short while, but although I went out wearing clothes that looked dirty, I was actually clean. When I came back, the clothes were really dirty and the people were dirty. It was already hot Sweating all over, and being blown by the wind carrying flying sand and dust, Mu Nan touched his neck, and there was black residue on his hands, and even small stones could be felt in his hair.
Originally, I wanted to say that I would go to play with Song Jia and the others for a while to fight the landlord. It was so dirty that I could only go home and take a bath. After taking a bath, Mu Nan didn't want to go out again. Let alone go out, I left the low-temperature and air-conditioned room. Walking upstairs and downstairs in my house, I was sweating all over, so I could only stay in the room.
Although you can play cards online now, you have to spend money to buy happy beans online, and you can only buy one-way. Online beans cannot be exchanged for money to withdraw, so playing online is boring. It is also good to win some soybeans by playing cards, and fry some crispy beans.
Since he's not going out anymore, it's time for Qin Huai to settle the accounts slowly. Once the accounts are settled, it will be the sun rising and night falling.
Although the amount of dried potatoes distributed by the government is small, it can be regarded as an extra income. It has relieved many families who cannot make ends meet for at least a day or two. Frugal families can even eat it as a three-day meal.
Accompanied by another good news, the mining of deep wells has made gratifying progress. The official government website announced that preparations for water storage have now begun, so that people do not have to worry about future water use. Although there will be restrictions, the amount of drinking is enough.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire residential area rose visibly to the naked eye. They were not afraid of anything else, they would eat less food if they had less food. If the water was really dry as the people from the north said, they would wish to accumulate urine and keep it Drink, I feel suffocated just thinking about it.
It is not all smooth sailing recently, because in addition to some escaped from the drought in the north, there are also many convoys from coastal cities, some passing by, and then stop to find resources to replenish, and some target the capital and stop at the capital. Didn't stop.
But the well-informed people still inquired about some things from their mouths.
The deep sea is polluted. In one sea area, nearly 10% of fish schools are infected by prions. This 10% is already quite serious. This virus is not a virus in the traditional sense, and it cannot even be regarded as a virus. There is no solution, let alone the present.
However, if the people in the coastal areas do not rely on the sea to eat the sea, what can they eat.
At the beginning, the earthquake triggered one after another tsunami, which flooded many cities. Up to now, some coastal cities have always remained on the bottom of the sea after the earthquake. I don’t know if it was because of the submersion of the cities that countless people died. In the water, the corpses were eaten by some schools of fish, and then the prions broke out in a large area.
This outbreak of death is too serious. Although there will be no human-to-human transmission, those who are familiar and unknown around will die one after another. Few people with a strong heart can continue to live in such an environment safely.
Moreover, this virus is spreading throughout the sea area. They don't even know whether future marine life will become extinct because of it. They have nothing else to eat except fish caught in the sea. If they want to survive, they can only go inward. Lu fled.
In addition, according to those people, what is even more frightening is that the sea water is constantly swallowing the land.
Places where humans could live two years ago have now become part of the sea.
Some people say that this is because the polar glaciers are constantly melting, but because the distance is too far away, they don't know what's going on there. No one knows whether the government has contacted the survivors on the glacier side. Whether it will swallow the entire inland, or whether they will move the whole country is unknown, but at least for now, if this trend continues, the inland will become a vast ocean sooner or later.
Some marketing accounts on the Internet that were later operated are posting some soft articles predicting the future. Some say that building an underwater city that can isolate sea water will be the only way out for human beings, or that only a very small number of people will survive, and then the genes will evolve. Ability to survive under the sea.
Mu Nan looked at various soft articles on the Internet, and still felt that his initial guess was the most reliable: "I think there must be big ships in our country, and those super super big ships are parked in a secret deep underground. , when the time comes, some of the surviving humans will be transferred there, maybe they will survive on the ship for decades, until the outside is completely calm, and then the whole ship will slowly float from the bottom of the sea.”
Qin Huai: "This fantasy theme is good, you can draw it into your little manga."
Mu Nan looked at him and sighed: "If it's really what I guessed, then we definitely won't be able to get on the boat."
Qin Huai: "Worried about not being able to buy a boat ticket?"
Mu Nan shook his head: "Because we can't contribute to the reproduction of human beings, we are not qualified to board the ship."
Qin Huai was amused by his argument: "Don't worry, if there is a boat, I can take you there too."
"Wow, brother, you are too confident. If you don't know, you may think that you have Long Aotian's background."
Qin Huai gently pinched his face: "Your brother and I don't have the background of Long Aotian, but I have IQ and technology that can surpass at least some people. What human beings need is not only reproduction, but also technological progress. I can't do the former , then I will try my best to run towards the latter.”
He is not a scientific research academic, and what he learned before was only to convert knowledge into monetary benefits, but he believes that his own brain is only corresponding. If it is really such a development, then he may not have as much time in the future as he does now. I spend leisurely time with Mu Nan every day, but this is just Mu Nan's whimsy. The underground ship or something sounds fantastic enough.
After accompanying Mu Nan to divert his thoughts for a while, Qin Huai threw a rag to Mu Nan: "Get up and clean up."
Mu Nan turned over and said, "The industrious elder brother stopped working today, and is going to start enslaving your dear younger brother."
Qin Huai leaned over and put his hand on his ear: "I give you a choice, do the cleaning with me, or you are responsible for cleaning the room."
Mu Nan, who didn't want to do cleaning, got up with a sigh: "Didn't I do cleaning two days ago, why do I still do it today? I'm so tired, I didn't sleep well last night."
Mu Nan was carrying a rag and was about to put on a show by the bay window, but as soon as he passed by, he groaned in disgust: "Why is it so dirty?"
Qin Huai: "It's been windy for the past two days. Although the doors and windows are closed, some dust will still be blown in by the wind. The windows on the top floor are still open, so there is more dust. I'll clean up the upstairs. You clean the room, don't be lazy , Did you hear me, I'll check later."
Mu Nan replied humbly: "Don't be lazy, don't be lazy, you must do it cleanly!"
Qin Huai saw that he was earnestly fetching a basin of water and began to clean the bay windows and furniture, so he went upstairs with the cleaning tools.
It doesn't matter if you clean other places casually, as long as it is not too dirty, but not in the room. He thought that Mu Nan's cardiopulmonary function was worse than that of ordinary people. This kind of inhaled dust is too much, and it is easier to get sick. So I plan to let Mu Nan do it first, and after he cleans up the outside a little bit, and then do the room a second time, it will be much cleaner.
While doing it, Mu Nan chatted with them in the group, and took a picture of the dirt on the entire bay window wiped together: "I did the cleaning the day before yesterday, and today it's so dirty."
Soon Song Jia posted a photo of the clothes: "Don't doubt, this dress is white. I dried it in the yard before going to bed yesterday, and just now when I went to collect it, it was dusty."
Jian Chu: "Get used to it slowly, this will be our normal life in the future."
There is no way to plant trees, exposed to the sun every day, water and soil erosion, it’s okay for a year or two, but if it goes on like this for years, the world will become a sandy land sooner or later.
Seeing that Song Jia was still complaining that the clothes had to be washed again, although there was a well in their yard that was not short of water, but it was not so wasteful, Mu Nan suddenly felt that it was fortunate that his brother had the foresight to not wash the clothes since the wind started. After being exposed to the sun, it is basically dried in the bathroom with the dryer on.
Upstairs and downstairs, it took three big buckets of water to clean it up. Qin Huai replaced the covering outside the balcony on the second and third floors. It just touched the ground before, and it was enough to completely block the sunlight. Now it is replaced with a longer one. A little bit of cover, and the gaps between the doors and windows are blocked as much as possible. Although the dust may still be unavoidable, it is much stronger than before.
After taking care of the whole house, Mu Nan put the mung bean soup that had been cooled by the air conditioner into the refrigerator and said, "Go and take a bath quickly, and there will be ice-cold mung bean soup to drink after the shower."
There is mung bean soup in the space, but the waiting process will make the food more fragrant and sweet.
However, as long as it's something Mu Nan got his hands on, it must be too sweet. For Qin Huai, who doesn't have a strong appetite for sweets, he looked at Mu Nan inexplicably: "How much sugar did you put?"
Mu Nan took a sip and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction: "How delicious, I think my cooking is much better than yours!"
Seeing that Mu Nan was going to drink his bowl of mung bean soup, Qin Huai slapped his hand away: "One bowl is enough, two bowls would be too much sugar."
Seeing Qin Huai sip, Mu Nan said regretfully, "Why don't you like drinking? I'll help you."
Qin Huai took the bowl to clean it, and was just about to go into the bathroom to wash the clothes that the two had changed when he saw the notification on his phone.
Mu Nan's mobile phone also received it at the same time, whether it was a strong wind warning or an orange-level warning, but Mu Nan has never had a good idea of how many levels of wind are: "Strong wind of level 11, is it a very strong wind?"
Qin Huai frowned slightly: "Drink your mung bean soup, I'll go upstairs and check the doors and windows again."
With such a strong wind, the shelter placed outside may have to be brought in first. Fortunately, there is a heat-insulating sunshade in their house, so there is no need to worry about being exposed to the sun without the shelter outside.
In the group, I reminded the people in the yard to reserve more water today, and then went downstairs with a few buckets. The wind at level 11 was already approaching the level of a typhoon. Generally, this kind of strong wind will not last long, but Combined with the dust that was blown up by the gust of wind recently, Qin Huai suddenly had a bad feeling.
