Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Because of Lao Zhu's strong counterattack, the residents of their building fell silent for the time being, and there was no word in the group that they wanted to exclude people who had been infected. With Lao Zhu's precedent, those who have never been infected Those who are even more afraid of getting sick are afraid that they will be retaliated against if they offend them.

But their building is quiet, but other places may not be able to have this quietness. People seem to be gradually divided into two types of people, normal people and infected people. Even if those infected people recover temporarily after treatment, experts and medical scientists will It has been repeatedly emphasized that mycelium can only be transmitted through smog with mycelium, and the transmission between people is extremely low. Wearing a good mask can almost achieve more than 90% of the possibility of isolating human-to-human transmission. But even so, normal people will be afraid of contacting infected people, and they even turn this fear and fear into exclusion and hostility.

Mu Nan has seen on the Internet more than once the news that a whole community or a whole village is hostile to the infected people, smashing eggs at the gate, but someone in the house puts a seal on the door, piles up garbage on the door of others, and even worse. Some tyrannical people gathered together and used force to drive those infected people who stayed at home peacefully out of their living territory.

Apart from constantly urging people to rationally and correctly view pulmonary swollen disease, and not to be blindly overreacted, the government has no effective way to improve the current situation unless a specific cure can be produced. But the medicine was not so easy to develop. It was not until the smog cleared overnight that all the infected people still failed to escape death. This prejudice was buried with the death of those people.

The coldness of human nature, but also the warmth of human nature, the people in white really became angels this time, the power of unity, the great love of sacrifice and dedication are happening all the time, it is these powers that put Yuan himself in a desperate situation Some disheartened people felt the temperature of love again.

This society is like this, there is a reality that makes people feel cold, and there is also love and hope that makes people continue to move forward bravely. Love and hate are intertwined, but that's all.

These things happened in Mu Nan's life, but they were a little far away from his life. When the pneumonia first broke out, the whole people were panic and uneasy. Facing this unknown that would bring death, everyone instinctively scared. When the second outbreak occurred, it was only the despair of the infected. Some people had already started a new life that had nothing to do with themselves, while others were struggling in the despair of losing their new life after finally gaining a new life.

Lao Zhu still died. More than a week later, his wife contacted people in the community, saying that Lao Zhu was dying, and asked them to prepare the car and take people away at any time. Naturally, this is not going to the hospital. They know that the disease will relapse again, and it is completely impossible to save them. Moreover, the current situation in the hospital may be comparable to purgatory on earth, so they didn't even think about going to the hospital.

On the day when Lao Zhu was dragged away, the smog seemed to have dissipated. It was noon. Although the sky was still gloomy and the visibility was not high, people on the lower floors could still see the vehicles entering and leaving the gate of the community, so I took a photo and posted it in the group , I don’t know if it’s a sigh or something else, and I also sighed along with the photo: “Another one is gone.”

Residents on the same floor as Lao Zhu said in the group that the one who was carried away was Lao Zhu, who walked away very quietly, and her wife did not cry loudly. Except for the footsteps of the staff who came to carry people, there were no other unnecessary sounds in the corridor,

After the person left, some old neighbors wanted to get well again. When Lao Zhu was young, he was in the food business. He would often distribute some delicious food to the neighbors. Lao Zhu’s wife also had a family tradition. Beef sauce and fermented bean curd are excellent. Among the older generation of neighbors, almost most of them have eaten old Zhu’s beef sauce and fermented bean curd. Mu Nan also ate it when he was a child. Their beef sauce is filled with a jar full of beef.

When he was a child, he still disliked his own mother, why no one wished his aunt the exclusive recipe, and his mother poked his forehead and said: "Some are good for you to eat, but I still dislike your mother."

Some people recite good things, and naturally some people also hold grudges. The one who holds grudges is the one who was kicked at the gate by Lao Zhu. It is said that that person complained in a private group, saying that this kind of person deserves death. He deserved the retribution.

Mu Nan also added a few other WeChat groups, because as group buying has become a daily part of life, many merchants or businessmen have sensed business opportunities, so they launched various group buying, no longer limited to meat and vegetables, with different products, Group buying groups are naturally scattered, and some groups have a good atmosphere. In addition to shopping, they occasionally exchange information and chat. Mu Nan learned about this through other people's chats.

The person who spoke was from No. 5 on the ninth floor, and he had nothing to do with Lao Zhu who lived on the thirteenth floor. If he hadn't said the most vicious words in the group, Lao Zhu would not have chosen his house to make an example to others. Now everyone is leaving Now, I have to be quick-talking, if I really have to be so capable, I wouldn't be afraid to come out when Lao Zhu kicked the door. This kind of person is a typical beep beep who is capable, and he is definitely the fastest one to counsel when something really happens.

Mu Nan took his mobile phone and complained to Qin Huai: "I really want to smash eggs in front of his house, this person is too disgusting." At least he had eaten Uncle Zhu's snacks and Aunt Zhu's beef sauce when he was a child, let alone the people of Zhu's family Well, it was him, an outsider who only had a little friendship, who looked angry.

Qin Huai said: "Food is so precious, it would be wasted if it was smashed at the door of his house. This kind of unscrupulous person, he deserves his retribution sooner or later."

After Qin Huai finished speaking, he took out Mu Nan's small book that recorded his purchases, pointed to a line of things on it, and said, "Why do you buy so much cat litter? If you want to raise a cat, I don't recommend it. It’s as difficult as in your dream, and it’s irrational to keep a pet.” Unless it’s a pet that you’ve had since childhood, then naturally you can’t give up anything, but knowing that life in the future will be difficult, it’s not right to keep a pet at this time Are you making trouble for yourself?

Recently, Qin Huai is sorting out the things that Mu Nan bought, to see if there is anything missing, or some things can be hoarded. Although it may not be possible to exchange all the funds he consolidated into supplies, it is possible to exchange as much as possible. Repeatedly, he made a table of what Mu Nan already had, only to find that there was quite a lot of cat litter in the pile of things.

Mu Nan said: "Cat litter has a great effect. Don't underestimate cat litter. Cat litter can not only shovel cat feces, but also human beings." Take a good look at the role of cat litter.

Although he was not short of water in his last life, he had accumulated a lot of water in the space when he realized that the situation was not right earlier, but without knowing what will become of it in the future, he would not dare to use it no matter how much water there is. Waste, so whenever he solved his daily physiology, he felt sorry for the water. At that time, he thought, it would be great if he could solve the problem without wasting water.

Probably the obsession was so strong that when he was reborn to buy things, the first thing on his shopping list was not food, but cat litter. When water is scarce, this thing is too useful. After all, they live in residential buildings, and they are not some mountainous suburbs that can be buried anywhere.

Qin Huai was amazed by Mu Nan's imaginative thinking. He really didn't expect that cat litter could be used in this way, but after thinking about it carefully, he really could use it in this way. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "If that's the case, do you want to use it again?" Stock up a little? Food is now under strict control. If there is no normal distribution channel, it will be difficult for private individuals to buy too much, but cat litter can be as much as you want.”

Mu Nan said: "Then buy it. I don't have enough money. If you can buy the things I listed, you can buy whatever you want. You can't have too much. Who knows how long it will take for normal society to return to normal?" Order." Maybe it will never be restored, so buy more to be prepared.

Qin Huai was opened to new thinking by Mu Nan's cat litter brain, thought for a while and said, "Then, can anyone eat the pet's snacks?"

Mu Nan shook her head: "It's edible, but it's not delicious. Oh, yes, there's also milk. Why did I forget about milk? Is it better to buy liquid milk or powdered milk? Can I still buy it now?"

Qin Huai wrote down the milk separately: "You can buy it, buy some bottled and powdered milk, drink it yourself, or exchange it with someone later, think about what else is missing?"

Mu Nan said: "I bought everything I can think of, think about it again, maybe there is something missing in my thinking."

After Mu Nan finished speaking, he heard the beeping sound of the steam pot in the kitchen, and quickly got up from the bed. He has been cooking corn for the past two days. It is also convenient to eat. As soon as the lid was lifted, the sweet and sweet smell of corn came to my face instantly. Even though I had smelled this smell for two or three days, Mu Nan still sniffed. The smell of food was so satisfying.

Before Mu Nan reached out to take out the corn from the pot, Qin Huai, who followed him into the kitchen, pushed him aside, picked up the chopsticks, picked out the corn one by one from the pot, and put the corn that he had prepared earlier. Put the food-grade sealed box on the stove, and pour out all the corn water in the pot after cleaning the corn silk.

They have collected all the boiled corn water in the past few days. Some of them are cooled and kept in the refrigerator, and some of them are stored directly in hot water in Mu Nan’s space. They added some white sugar when they boiled the corn, so The corn water also brings some sweetness, and it can add a little sugar when you drink it later.

Smelling the sweet smell of corn, Mu Nan said: "Let's make more rock sugar stewed pears, add some lily and Chuanbei, and collect them like this. When the weather gets cold, you can drink them anytime you want. It can also protect the lungs from the cold and keep warm.”

Qin Huai nodded: "Let's stew it, this one will be very fast. Stew two pots today, let the stove rest for a while, take out the big hanging pot at night, stew the ribs, put it on a low fire and simmer overnight, and drink it tomorrow." Soup."

Mu Nan nodded when he heard that, he doesn't have any cooking skills, if he wants to do it himself, he can only put it in a pressure cooker according to the procedure on the Internet, and he can cook a pot of soup in an hour or two, but that kind of soup is not as good as the one that has been simmered overnight. The soup can't be compared at all. Fortunately, Qin Huai is here, and Qin Huai's cooking skills are much better than him.

The two people here are happily planning to make soup, but the people next door will be miserable.

A boy who looked about the same age as Mu Nan, with hair that seemed to have been chewed by a dog, tried hard to smell the smell of corn in the air, couldn't help but swallowed, and looked at the side that looked bigger than him. The more mature boy looked at it with a smile, and joked: "Or I'll go to the next door and ask if their corn is sold, so that you won't be drooling all over the floor."

Jian Chu, who was being teased, didn't feel that she was being teased at all. Instead, she looked at him expectantly, hoping that he would put his words into practice.

Looking at the other party's wet and expectant eyes like a puppy, Yu Zibai couldn't stand it and looked away.

As he moved away, Jian Chu seemed to hear the voice of disillusioned hope. He likes to eat corn. Although he didn't go to the point where he would die if he couldn't eat it, since he couldn't go out, he was locked up at home for almost two hours. It’s been many months, and it’s okay if I can’t smell it. I can smell it but can’t eat it. The torment is comparable to that of a person who likes to eat shrimp. It smells that the next door is frying fried prawns but can’t eat it. The feeling is too disturbing.

Taking another deep breath of the sweetness in the air, Jian Chu leaned against the balcony door full of melancholy, looking at the empty road outside, with a sad face: "When will this day end?"

Not going out is not the most difficult thing. The hardest thing is the wallet that can’t make ends meet, the rent, utilities, and the rising prices of food. If you can’t go out, you can’t do part-time jobs. If you can’t do part-time jobs, you can’t earn living expenses. I haven't got my graduation certificate yet, and I can't find a job. It's not just the smog outside that kills me, but also my wallet without a penny.

Yu Zibai, who knew what he was worried about, lowered his eyes slightly, and then smiled at him comfortingly: "Don't worry about the rent, this year's rent will be paid, at least this year, you won't be allowed to live on the streets. The current environment is such that it's not you who For one person, if this disaster can pass, the country will definitely have a subsidy policy, it is useless for you to worry about gray hair now, and people are still alive in safety and health, which is the greatest blessing in this disaster."

Jian Chu hummed, but was not comforted.

As a notification sounded from the phone, Yu Zibai laughed, his clear brows were extraordinarily gentle: "Tao, do you want to eat corn?"

Jian Chu, whose nickname is Dao Dao, turned to look at Yu Zibai, with question marks of expectation on his face.

Yu Zibai smiled and raised his phone: "I added the WeChat next door."
