Chapter 23 Looking for Water

Fu Jingyu received a call from Fu Xinci.

"Brother, something serious has happened."

"What's wrong?"

Fu Jingyu asked, frowning slightly.

"All the water we stored in the water tank has evaporated, and the tap water has stopped flowing. Now our family can only use the mineral water we stored before."

Fortunately, all the original goods were stored in the basement to avoid exposure to sunlight.

Some goods are placed in those empty rooms.

Although there are many rooms in the hotel, most of them are actually used as storage space.

"Is there nothing left?"

Fu Jingyu frowned slightly. The water was not used directly for eating, but for washing dishes, washing and flushing the toilet.

It would be too luxurious to do these things with mineral water.

"No."

Fu Xinci spoke with great certainty.

Fu Jingyu thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll think of a way."

Afterwards, Fu Jingyu hung up the phone.

After standing outside for a while, his hair was already wet with sweat.

You can see how hot the sky is.

He turned around and walked into the room and asked Li Junxing, "Junxing, where is the key to the water tanker?"

"Upstairs, captain, do you want to go out to find water?" Li Junxing stood up and looked at Fu Jingyu eagerly.

Fu Jingyu nodded and responded, "There is a shortage of water here at the base and there is a shortage of water at the hotel and villas. Of course we have to find water."

“No one knows how long this weather will last, we must be prepared and wait until the rainy season comes!

"So, we have to find water."

Li Junxing said: "Captain, let me go with you."

They took their families to Jingang City and arranged them in some residential houses. They also listened to the captain's instructions in advance and stocked up on a lot of supplies.

So they don't have to worry about anything now.

Of course, some family members don't want to come over, and they can't be contacted now, so everyone is preparing for the worst.

Now, as the end of the world approaches, everyone has made a careful plan together.

Prepare to build Jingang City into a safe zone so that everyone can survive in the end of the world.

They have family here, so they are naturally willing to build a new home with the captain.

However, their individual strength is still weak and they need to strengthen their team.

"Captain, let's go too."

A few more people stood up and spoke.

Fu Jingyu nodded and said, "Just ten more if you add me. Stay together in pairs. Remember to wear cooling clothes and set off at five o'clock in the afternoon."

The temperature started to drop around four o'clock.

Of course, it's not that cool either, it's over 50 degrees at night.

"yes!"

There are five water storage trucks in total, all of which are fully fueled and have air conditioners inside.

Only then can you hit the road, otherwise you will be burned to death after hitting the road.

This was also the first time they went out to look for water. If they were too far away, the signal would be poor, so they all set out together.

To prevent a tire blowout, Fu Jingyu brought a spare tire in advance.

Li Junxing was driving and clearly saw that the river in Jingang City had dried up and the fish had been sunburned to death.

"Oh my God! Actually..."

He couldn't stand it and quickly looked away!

It wasn't the dried fish that made me sigh, but the corpses of children and old people.

They were all badly exposed to the sun.

In fact, this is not the first time I have seen it, but I still feel a little bit unbearable.

When natural disasters strike, the fittest survive!

Those who are weak will eventually be eliminated.

Those who are eliminated the most are always the elderly, children, and women.

Fu Jingyu's face was expressionless, seemingly indifferent to all this.

"Captain, why don't we go to Riyue Lake? There might be water there."

Li Junxing suggested.

"Let's go and take a look."

"good."

Li Junxing drove the team, followed closely by the water storage trucks behind him.

When they came to Riyue Lake, they found that there was very little water in Riyue Lake. Some residents held umbrellas and buckets to fetch water.

Life is very difficult for everyone.

Li Junxing looked at everything outside and said, "Captain, should we drain the water?"

"Forget it, the water is sparse and turbid."

Fu Jingyu spoke calmly and continued: "I remember there is a large reservoir in Bailitun outside the city. Let's go to the reservoir to have a look."

"OK."

Li Junxing looked away. He felt that the lake water was fine and not as turbid as he imagined.

They can only go out of the city to find water.

On the way out of the city, you can always see dead animals and people.

The more you see it, the more you become immune.

I just occasionally see some pictures, which are still a bit unbearable.

Especially the picture of a mother holding her child in her arms and both lying on the ground.

This weather is so poisonous, it seems like it will wipe out all human beings.

Finally we arrived at Bailitun Reservoir.

This is a relatively large reservoir nearby.

But the water level has also dropped horribly.

Fortunately, there is still water, and the water is clear enough.

Everyone got out of the car, took out the water pump, and prepared to pump the water from the reservoir.

"There are still bodies here!"

Li Junxing frowned as he looked at a male corpse behind a stone next to him.

Judging from the glossiness of his skin, he must have only been dead for two days. This man must have come here to look for water. He was only a few steps away from the water source.

Unfortunately, it ended up falling next to the water source.

Li Junxing took an empty mineral water bottle and filled a bottle of water in the reservoir.

Put the bottle of water in the man's arms.

He didn't know why he did these meaningless things. Maybe he wanted to reassure this man and also to reassure himself.

Although the weather is bad, we still have to live well.

Survival is human instinct.

Others understood Li Junxing's behavior.

Fu Jingyu said to everyone: "Everyone, let's start pumping water."

"yes."
