An extremely noisy, but hypnotic light noise. The danger that can be seen on the surface, zombies. It is a feast for plants.
An extremely quiet, but heart-stopping silence. It hides a great crisis, lack of water, but it is a disaster for plants!
There is a popular saying among old farmers in the countryside: Five days without rain means a small drought, ten days without rain means a big drought, and a month without rain will cause smoke.
It means: During the dog days of summer, if it doesn’t rain for five days, drought will begin in the land; if it doesn’t rain for ten days, the drought will become serious; if it doesn’t rain for a month, it means there will be a drought.
Already.
In this silent, hot and dry weather, there are also people walking outside.
Although it is hot, the danger of zombies has weakened a lot. Taking advantage of this season, many people began to come out to look for some basic supplies.
The hot weather lasted for another 5 days, and it has not rained for 15 days. Not only has it not rained, but it has been sunny for 15 days, and there has been no cloudy day.
In a county not far from them.
A small group, this group had been exploited by the Salvation Army before. The leader was someone who had worked in the catering industry in the county.
With family and friends, there were only 12 people in total. Originally there were more than 30 people, but later they encountered the Salvation Army and killed several people, so they had to succumb.
Then there was a heavy rain later, which caused some people to starve to death, and some others were bitten to death by zombies.
From more than thirty people, the number of people dropped to less than one third of the population.
They endured the heavy rain and resisted the tide of zombies. Even after the heavy rain, they were afraid that the Salvation Army would come and rob again to collect protection fees.
What they didn't expect was that the heavy rain ended and the Salvation Army didn't come. It was hot outside and there were very few zombies. This made them happy for a while.
However, before they were happy for a long time, the continuous hot and high temperature weather gave them a heavy blow!
The hot weather has caused many previously undiscovered foods in the city to rot and grow bugs.
The hot weather puts them at risk of heatstroke when walking outside under the bright sun.
Today, one person suffered from heat stroke.
She is the daughter of the leader. The leader of this small group is named Tan Guohua. Originally, in this apocalypse, he knew deeply that in this apocalypse, human nature is the most terrifying.
He can be regarded as extremely ruthless. He has been working as a hotel caterer for half his life. He has never seen anyone, and his methods are extremely ruthless.
When the apocalypse first broke out, he led a few of his men who were doing catering together and ran directly to his home to bring his family members together.
Then he survived for a while.
There is no simple person who can survive until now in the apocalypse.
However, in this situation of natural and man-made disasters, even he cannot bear it anymore.
Today, I still go out to look for supplies. The place where I originally lived was discovered by zombies last night, so I have to change my place to live today.
While walking during the day, his daughter Xiaoyu suffered from heatstroke due to the sun's rays.
They searched many places, but there was no water.
Finally, I ran 3 kilometers to the other side of the city, to the river in the opposite district, and finally got some water.
But this water is very turbid.
The weather is so hot that even the Gongjiang River is about to dry up.
The water level has dropped to its lowest level. Even in previous years, there have been more than ten days without rain, but the daytime temperature has not reached over 40 degrees every day.
In the past, the hot weather was only 38 degrees Celsius at most, and it only lasted for a few days. Sometimes, the gates would be opened and released upstream to ensure that the river would not dry up.
But now, this river has begun to dry up.
They barely managed to get some water out of the turbid river. They took this opportunity to get more water, because they didn't know if the river would dry up next time.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, open your mouth." Tan Guohua used his hand to pull apart his daughter's dry and peeling lips.
Xiao Yu'er fell into a coma, but his forehead was still hot and covered with sweat.
A woman next to him said to him: "Brother Hua, stop holding her and put her down. Oh, the child is really suffering."
Tan Guohua's wife escaped the outbreak of the apocalypse, but she did not escape the time she spent in the Salvation Army.
Because he had a daughter, he gritted his teeth and endured it. He wanted to live for her daughter.
If it weren't for his daughter, he would have fought tooth and nail with the Salvation Army.
However, now my daughter has also suffered from heat stroke and is unconscious.
I have searched pharmacies in many cities, but it has been almost a year since the apocalypse broke out, and medicines and other supplies have been robbed long ago.
Now there is not even a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water.
Tan Guohua looked at his daughter's pale face. He had never shed tears before, and big tears fell down.
He would do anything for his family. When the Salvation Army arrived, he clearly told the Salvation Army all the news about Li Yu.
Because he had never had direct contact with Li Yu, he knew very little, and he didn't even know where they lived. When the Salvation Army asked, he could only tell some of what he knew.
But, even so, the Salvation Army still killed his wife. It was only after Tan Guohua still didn't say anything after killing five people that the Salvation Army believed him.
My wife is dead and my daughter is suffering from heat stroke. I don’t know what’s going on.
After their team of 12 people filled up the water, they had to rush to a new place and find a new shelter.
Their food can only last two more days.
In fact, they had already reduced their daily food to half of the previous one a week ago.
A person who followed Tan Guohua also brought some family members. He was also a middle-aged man. At this time, he saw Tan Guohua holding his daughter there and feeling sad.
Although he understood, he couldn't help but said: "Brother Hua, we have to find a new place to live quickly. And we don't have enough food."
"It's none of my business! Damn it! Don't bother me!" Tan Guohua suddenly became angry, like a furious lion. This time, his daughter had a heat stroke and he couldn't hold on any longer.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he felt a surge of anger. His relatives also died during the last zombie wave, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, several other people wanted to say something, but they saw that Tan Guohua was completely out of state.
So I walked over and started discussing with the middle-aged man where to move next.
"Brother Sun, something's not right with Brother Hua now. We'd better find a place quickly." The young man who spoke had a face full of worry.
"Yes, Brother Sun, let's make a decision quickly. Where to go, we have to leave quickly, otherwise zombies will still come out at night if we stay here. It's dangerous."
Brother Sun was worried. He glanced at Brother Hua with some worry on his face, nodded and said, "Then let's go to the wholesale city across the river. Maybe there are some things there."
Then I looked at the people around me. They were all sallow and thin, with hair like thatch. They had no energy at all, and Brother Hua was holding a dying little fish in his arms.
