Chapter 680 Natural disaster level super heavy rain
Chapter 680 Natural Disaster Level Super Heavy Rainstorm [Big Chapter]
Xu Chengcai walked on the muddy path through a sparse forest.
The gloomy sky was low, and heavy rain poured down, accompanied by the roar of thunder and lightning.
He was wearing a shabby raincoat. Although it was soaked by the rain, he walked forward firmly.
The rain poured down mercilessly, soaking his clothes and making his body tremble with cold. But he did not give up because he knew that keeping warm was crucial in such an environment.
There was a decaying atmosphere in the woods, and the moist soil mixed with old leaves formed a unique atmosphere. In this chaotic environment, Xu Chengcai's arms were trembling slightly from the cold.
Finally, his eyes stopped at the place where several trees were intertwined.
He found a rotten tree branch that looked relatively thick. It was once a strong branch, but now it was eroded by time and wind and rain, leaving only a fragile shell. In the raging rainstorm, it became
Xu Chengcai's best choice for heating.
He quickly grabbed the branch and picked it up without hesitation. Water was dripping from the branch, and the wet wood gave off a rotten smell.
After taking two steps, he took a flashlight and saw two small, dry and dead trees, only as big as the mouth of a bowl in diameter.
He kicked it, and the tree, which had died due to the previous high temperature, fell with a crisp sound.
He took a rope from his waist, tied it to the branches and trees, and dragged it towards the small grocery store not far away.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, making his vision gradually blurry, but fortunately, he was not far from the grocery store hut.
The branches he dragged behind him were stained with the muddy soil on the ground as he dragged them.
soon.
He walked to the door of the grocer's hut.
He looked around. The dark mountains and forests, accompanied by lightning, seemed a bit spooky and scary, but he found no trace of zombies. The raindrops made a crackling sound on the eaves of the antique cabin.
The door was still the same as when he left it, and it looked like Xiaoyong was fine inside.
"Xiaoyong! Help me get the firewood in!" He stood at the door and shouted toward the inside.
But maybe it was because the rain was so heavy that Xiaoyong didn't hear it.
His whole body was soaked by the rain, and he didn't want to stay in the rain for a second, so he simply broke the long pieces of firewood into several pieces at the door, and then opened the door.
"Huh?" His eyes became nervous instantly. In this small space of less than ten square meters, the situation inside could be seen clearly at a glance.
But he didn't see Xiaoyong.
"Xiaoyong! Where are you?" The flesh on his face was trembling unconsciously, just like his voice was trembling slightly at this time.
He was obviously not far away, but when he was collecting firewood, he didn't see any movement here, and the door didn't move at all.
Where did Xiaoyong go?
His son was his only hope for survival. He really couldn't imagine what he would do if Xiaoyong had an accident.
But just when he was about to run out of the cabin, there was movement on the wall behind the shelves.
A small door was pushed open, and Xiaoyong poked his head out and shouted to Xu Chengcai: "Dad, I'm here, come here and take a look. Come here quickly!"
Xiaoyong's face was full of surprise, as if he had seen something extraordinary.
The moment Xu Chengcai saw his son, his heart that was hanging in the air suddenly hit the ground.
He rushed over, hugged Xiaoyong's head tightly, and said complainingly: "Why didn't you reply when I called you just now? You scared me to death! Don't run around, okay?"
His mind was completely focused on his son now. From the worry just now to the joy of finding Xiaoyong now, he didn't notice where his son came out.
Xiaoyong was a little confused by this sudden father's love.
He struggled to break away from his father's arms, pointed to the small door and said, "There is a surprise inside, dad, come in and have a look."
When Xu Chengcai heard what Xiaoyong said, he noticed the small door. It had to be said that this small door was too hidden.
Behind the fallen shelf, the small door is exactly the same color as the wall, completely blending in.
The door handle is completely invisible from the outside.
Rain dripped down from his clothes. He looked at the small door and his heart suddenly contracted violently.
This is in a grocery store. A small space, most likely a small warehouse, is opened to store some things.
Combined with the fact that Xiaoyong was so happy just now, then inside.
He quickly raised his flashlight, pushed open the small door, and rushed in.
hiss--
What he saw next shocked his whole body.
It was as if the fatigue of half a year had dissipated.
A small warehouse with a depth of only three meters and a width of only one meter.
There are piles of various groceries inside.
Surprised, he ran forward to check.
What caught my eye the most was the barreled braised beef noodles, there was a box and a half.
Three boxes of potato chips.
There are four pieces of pure water, each with 24 bottles.
There is half a box of soda crackers, and two full boards of chocolate.
Three pieces of various drinks,
Half a box of lollipops and a third of a box of corn sausage.
Four or five large packages of preserved fruits and pastries.
Half a box of candies and four cartons of cigarettes.
He seemed to be in a dream. He had just been collecting firewood in the woods, and he was still thinking about cutting the squirrel in half today and saving half for eating tomorrow. After all, it was raining now and it would be difficult for them to find anything to eat when they went out.
.
But what he discovered now was a super surprise gift package, which hit him directly on the head.
He quickly opened the box and checked the condition of the food inside.
He knows that the apocalypse has been going on for two years, and most of the things here have passed their shelf life.
But for them, it doesn't matter at all.
It won't die late, it's just that the shelf life has passed.
He opened the box of braised beef noodles and tore off the outer packaging, revealing the familiar smell of instant noodles.
"Crack, click, click -" a voice came from behind him.
He saw Xiaoyong tearing open the box of soda biscuits and wolfing down the soda biscuits.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I stuffed a small box of soda biscuits into my mouth in two or three mouthfuls, and the whole mouth was filled to the brim.
But when Xiaoyong swallowed, he choked.
His eyes stared outwards, and he patted his chest hard with one hand, but the other hand still held the crackers tightly.
Seeing this, Xu Chengcai felt distressed and amused at the same time. He quickly took a bottle of pure water from the right, unscrewed the bottle mouth, and poured it into Xiaoyong's mouth.
Gudong——
Under the moisture of the water, the biscuits slowly softened, and Xiaoyong swallowed them all.
Even though he was choked and rolled his eyes, Xiaoyong was not willing to spit out the food in his mouth.
These foods are so rare, it would be a shame to throw them up.
Xu Chengcai handed the water to Xiaoyong, patted his back, and said angrily and funny: "Eat slowly, I'm not trying to compete with you. Eat slowly."
Huhu——
Xiaoyong took a deep breath, and his face, which had been flushed just now, slowly returned to normal.
He nodded vigorously, looked at the instant noodles on the shelf, and said to his father, "I want to eat instant noodles."
As he spoke, he swallowed again.
Xu Chengcai rubbed his head and said with a smile: "Okay."
He immediately put down the flashlight, gave him a bucket of instant noodles, and reminded him, "Eat slowly."
However, he didn't even bother to close the door, so he took a bucket of instant noodles and ate them directly.
It had been a long time since he had eaten carbohydrates. Although this noodle was expired, it wasn't that chewy and was even a little soft.
But he ate very well.
I ate two buckets in one go, and then opened another bottle of canned fruit.
Under the light of a flashlight.
The two father and son were sitting directly on the ground in this narrow space, one in front and one behind, eating the food wantonly.
The two of them had no appearance and no appearance of eating. They ate the food in big mouthfuls and threw the unpacked bags casually on the ground.
Accompanied by the sound of rain outside and the occasional sound of thunder, the two of them ate at an extremely fast speed.
Xu Chengcai has not eaten so happily for a long, long time.
His body was in a state of extreme hunger and thirst, and it was as if manna suddenly came to him after a long drought, nourishing his body.
Half an hour later, both of their stomachs were full.
In this case, after being hungry for two years, I was able to eat freely all of a sudden. No one could resist or stop eating.
I don't think about what's behind, or whether I will be strangled to death.
I just kept eating, I just wanted to eat until I was full.
It seemed that the matter of having enough food was already so far away from them in their previous life.
The two of them ate until they couldn't eat anymore, then they lay limply on the ground, breathing heavily.
It was as if he had just come alive.
Under the light of the flashlight, Xiaoyong and his father looked at each other and smiled, and the laughter gradually grew louder.
"Hahahahaha."
Smiling, Xu Chengcai's eyes turned slightly red.
I just ate there and didn't feel the weather getting so cold.
Although it is noon now, under the dark clouds and heavy rain, it is impossible to tell that it is daytime outside.
He suddenly remembered that there was still some firewood outside that had not been brought in.
He climbed up with difficulty and slowly walked outside.
Moving the wooden door open, he wanted to bend down and pick up the firewood.
But he was so full that he couldn't bend down at all.
He could only squat upright, and the heavy rain soaked his clothes again.
After moving twice, I finally got all the firewood into the small grocery store.
He moved the wooden door back and blocked the entrance. He looked around and saw a small refrigerator covered with dust. He then placed the refrigerator against the wooden door.
He took off his wet clothes, wrung them out, and spread them out on the wooden shelves.
Then, he looked up.
This grocery store is an antique building, and the roof is poured with cement. However, except for the four corners, the walls and roof are not sealed with bricks, leaving a gap of less than five centimeters.
"It just so happens that this gap can discharge the burning smoke." Xu Chengcai nodded slightly and murmured.
He rummaged through his backpack, found flint and steel, and wiped his hands.
Let your hands get dry, tear up those discarded dry cardboard boxes, and then light them with flint.
A small fire burned, and he carefully moved to the center of the small room, and then added a few larger cardboard boxes on top.
Kaka——
He quickly dismantled the wooden shelves, piled them into a tripod, and placed them in the flames.
Looking at the flames that gradually grew bigger, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
As he got closer to the flames, he felt his body gradually getting warmer.
Boom boom boom——
Thunder roared outside the small house.
The rain pattered on the stainless steel rolling shutter and wooden door next to it.
The entire hut gave them an extremely rare habitat in this dark storm.
The foundation of this small grocery store itself has been raised by nearly one meter, and there are four or five steps below.
Although they are halfway up the mountain, at least they are located at an altitude of 800 meters, and it is a protruding place on the mountainside.
The platform in front is a full meter and a half shorter than the small house where they are.
A very small part of the rainwater that flows and collects from the mountains is absorbed by the land vegetation, and most of it flows to the low-lying areas under the mountains.
In their small house, they could hear the water flowing from the mountain, but because the foundation was too high, it could not flood the small house.
The burning of the flame made Xiaoyong walk out of the warehouse inside the small door.
"Your clothes are also wet. Take them off and bake them." Xu Chengcai saw that Xiaoyong's clothes were also a little wet and said.
Then he rummaged through his luggage and found two blankets, gave one to Xiaoyong, and covered himself with the other one.
He tidied up the small grocery store again, straightened the remaining hollow shelf that had fallen on the ground, and pushed some garbage inside to a corner. These things can be burned.
After doing all this, the small grocery store became much cleaner and tidier in the firelight.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Next to the fire, he made a shelf and put their wet clothes, socks and shoes next to them to bake.
Their mats and sleeping bags were placed on the ground. The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, were sitting on the sleeping bags with blankets wrapped around them, warming themselves by the fire.
Near the wooden door, some rainwater was blown in by the strong wind.
But the fire was relatively far away, so it wasn't affected.
Xu Chengcai tore open the cigarette box and greedily took one out.
Lit in flames.
But the first bite made him cough.
Listening to the patter of rain outside, the smoke slowly floated to the top, and then escaped through the five centimeter gaps on all sides.
The temperature of the room slowly rises.
Xiaoyong also nodded his head up and down and dozed off.
Although it was very windy and rainy outside, Xu Chengcai felt that it was extremely beautiful at this time.
Big camphor tree base.
Natural disaster level super heavy rain.
The sky is leaking and pouring.
Already at a relatively high position, Li Yu was on the wall, quietly watching the lightning and thunder outside.
Several hillsides not far away were all ablaze with lightning, which was really visible.
It has been raining for six and a half hours since 5:30 in the morning.
It's twelve o'clock at noon.
Look into the distance.
Like the roar of the gods, the entire sky is shrouded in dark clouds. Dark clouds roll, lightning flashes, and heavy rain pours down mercilessly, like thousands of troops galloping past.
Far away from the base of the big camphor tree, deep in the mountain forest, a stream swelled rapidly, and the water surged like an enraged beast. Rolling stones splashed from the foot of the mountain, mixed with branches and sand, forming a huge torrent, like a roaring giant.
dragon.
The rain beat mercilessly on the sparse tree branches, making a sound like a drum. The trees in the forest were constantly swaying under the ravages of the storm, as if they were struggling for their lives. The howling of the wind made people feel as if they were in a
In the midst of nature's war.
The torrent rushed down the hillside rapidly, bringing surging waves and roaring sounds.
The stream water that was originally filled with melted snow suddenly became turbid, rolling with ferocious momentum, swallowing up everything around it.
The vegetation on the hillside was washed away by heavy rains and was in disarray. The roots of the trees were exposed, and the washed-out soil and rocks were swept into the flood. Like a destructive force, wherever the flood touched, there was a mess.
The rainwater gathered into a rapid river, carrying violent power, breaking through all obstacles, and rushing down the mountain. The river was turbulent, and the noisy current hit the river bank and splashed with waves, as if it was releasing the wildness and power of nature.
The whole world seems to be occupied by rain, torrents and storms. The strong visual impact and the expression of natural power make people feel powerless.
In the inner city of Dazhangshu Base.
There are many drainage outlets.
Several of the drainage outlets are located at the foot of the mountain, like huge mouths opening, waiting for the rainwater flowing down from the two mountains in the base.
The water slowly gathered into streams, hitting the edge of the drainage outlet, making a deafening roar.
The water flow is like a wild horse running wildly, struggling to wash through the channel, trying to find an exit. The water flow is ready to go, and converges into a raging torrent, washing the drainage outlet with huge force.
The fence of the drainage outlet was constantly trembling, as if it was in danger of being swallowed by the water at any time, but after Xu Zhen's reinforcement, although it was trembling, it was extremely stable.
The streams formed by the rainwater hit the fences, causing them to make sharp friction sounds, but they stuck to their positions and stubbornly resisted the invasion of the water.
The drainage system of the entire base is opened to the maximum, and rainwater continuously collects to low places, and then from low places to the sewers.
Then it gathers into the wellhead sewer underground which is as high as a person.
When rainwater washes into the drainage outlet, the water is forced to pass through the channel in the direction of the cliff, forming an amazing water column.
The water column broke through the rain curtain and sprayed high into the air, like a wonderful fountain. The water vapor filled the surroundings, forming a hazy mist, adding a mysterious and spectacular atmosphere to the whole scene.
The cliff below the drainage outlet received the pouring water and instantly turned into a waterfall.
The water tumbles in the narrow river channel, carrying strong force and rushing down.
The sound of water flow is like the roar of breaking waves, echoing among the cliffs and valleys, full of power and majesty.
When Li Yu came down from the fence, it had been raining heavily for six hours.
He hasn't slept since last night until now, he just feels a little worried.
Three hours ago, he went to inspect the conditions of various drainage outlets and also checked whether there was any waterlogging problem in the base.
nothing.
Now that it had been down for so long, he climbed down the wall again to check again.
The rain curtain limited the field of vision a lot.
Even with the light on, I can only see 20 meters away.
In the park, I watched the stagnant water slowly gather and be diverted to the sewer for discharge.
He went to the warehouse again and saw that there was no accumulation of water near the warehouse. It was flowing to the low places next to it.
Xu Zhen was also called by Li Yu to inspect the drainage situation together.
"Can our current drainage system withstand heavier rainstorms?"
Li Yu looked at the raging rainwater at the drainage outlet and shouted loudly to Xu Zhen beside him.
Xu Zhen leaned her ear closer and replied loudly:
"Okay, no problem. Although the rainwater seems scary now, it is basically discharged through the sewer.
In addition, Mr. Li, I have opened the flood outlet of the Shantang Reservoir to the maximum. Although the water in the Shantang Reservoir is now being replenished by rainwater, more is flowing out than in, and the overall water level is still falling.
It is estimated that with the current discharge volume, the water inside can be drained out in less than a day. Do you want to make the drainage channel smaller?"
Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Then close it half way. You can watch it at any time. As long as the pond exceeds the warning line, open the drain channel wider."
Xu Zhen shouted in the rain: "Okay."
Li Yu checked it again and felt slightly relieved.
It has just rained heavily, so it is impossible to tell whether there is no problem with drainage.
The heavy rain has been falling for six or seven hours, and the rainwater has already accumulated. There is no problem now, and there should be no big problems later.
I didn't sleep all night last night. I relaxed a little now and suddenly felt a little tired.
At this moment, his uncle's voice came from his headset: "Xiaoyu, there are a lot of zombies coming outside!"
