On the tenth day of the apocalypse, Su Keke was forcibly driven out of her home by her adoptive parents and sister. The reason was to reduce one person's consumption of supplies, even though Su...
"Okay, Coco, let's not talk about this anymore. The past life is in the past, and we will all be fine from now on!"
Grandma Qiao quickly asked Su Keke to stop thinking about the unhappy past.
"Well! In this life, we have to enjoy back all the sufferings we endured in the last life."
Su Keke looked at Grandma Qiao and said firmly.
The two of them quickly cleaned the house and sprayed insecticide many times in blind spots such as under the bed and under the kitchen cabinets. Su Keke even asked Tangyuan to visit every corner of the house.
"Meow! Meow meow!" After receiving the order, Tangyuan happily ran around the house looking for cockroaches.
Only after making sure there were no cockroaches, ants or other insects did Su Keke and Grandma Qiao sit down and rest with peace of mind.
During this period, Su Keke took the time to go over and deliver two bottles of insecticide to Lu Mei's family.
But there are not many cockroaches in their house, almost all of them are rats. Su Keke, this insecticide, is not very effective against rats.
However, now all the rats have been killed by rat poison. Who would have thought that Lu Mei not only stockpiled food, but also stockpiled rat poison!
On this day, due to a sudden insect tide, the government warehouse where grain was stored was also attacked by a large number of rats and cockroaches.
The temporary relief stations were in even greater chaos. More and more victims were being housed there, and the space available was limited. The sudden appearance of cockroaches and rats scared the women and children into running around.
Even the guards on patrol joined in the hunt for cockroaches and rats.
As the disaster became more serious and national rescue was delayed, the Lingcheng government's supplies were dwindling. In addition, there was a shortage of manpower, and many supplies were washed away by the flood before they could be salvaged.
Mayor Chen Guodong called on all city residents to actively engage in self-rescue, and those who are able to go out can go out and search for supplies on their own.
After an afternoon of promotion through the city government's loudspeakers, those who have boats at home are eager to try it out.
The people on the 20th floor also gathered together for an emergency meeting. The rubber boat could only accommodate four people at most, and after some negotiation, it was finally decided that Su Keke, Chen Da, Chen Li and Meng Yi would go out to find supplies.
Others are responsible for taking care of the existing supplies at home and exercising their physical fitness.
…
The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Su Keke and the others quietly went downstairs carrying the rubber boat.
I thought they were the first ones to go out, but I didn't expect that not long after they left the community, I saw several rubber boats similar to theirs slowly moving in all directions in the flood.
"Are we going to the supermarket?" asked Chen Li, who was in charge of driving the rubber boat.
Su Keke thought about it and realized that the big supermarkets nearby must have been robbed long ago, and the small convenience stores were basically on the first floor. Now the floodwaters had risen to the third floor, so there was no need to think about the convenience stores on the first floor.
So, where should they go to find supplies today to get something? Su Keke had no idea for a while.
"The supermarket near our community is basically out of stock? How about we drive out first to have a look?" Chen Da suggested.
"That's fine!" The others had no problem with it.
Su Keke and a few others followed the rubber boat in front and drove around the main roads of the city. There was almost nothing left in those big supermarkets.
"These supplies are really hard to find! Otherwise, why doesn't the municipal government go out and look for them themselves?"
Meng Yi complained, looking at the vast ocean below the rubber boat as if in a daze.
"Why don't we go to the suburbs? Generally, large-scale breeders will build factories in the suburbs."
Su Keke plans to take a different approach and go to places that others would never think of.
"Generally speaking, those factory buildings are not very tall, right? Will they all be flooded?" Chen Da said.
"I'm not sure about this! Why don't you all vote by raising your hands?" Su Keke said and raised her hand first.
The other three looked at each other and raised their hands.
"Okay! With four votes in favor, we'll change our route to the suburbs." Su Keke said happily.
Their rubber boats are powered, so they go pretty fast at full throttle.
"Oh my god! What is that?" Meng Yi saw a floating object in the flood heading towards their rubber boat.
"Chen Li, slow down!" Su Keke shouted anxiously.
"Bang!" Although the boat had slowed down, it still bumped forward a little due to inertia. However, this bump had no effect, and the four people just leaned forward half a bit.
"This...this can't be a person, right?"
Chen Da, who was at the front, quickly grabbed a branch in the flood and turned over the floating object that had just hit him.
My goodness, this is really a dead person.
"Oh my god! Does it have to be so scary?"
The four of them were frightened by the dead body in front of them. Meng Yi, who was sitting next to Chen Da, was closest to the dead body. When he saw the white face covered with blisters, he was so scared that he had difficulty breathing.
Although, everyone has some idea of what might happen in a flood.
But if I were to run into it, I would still be scared.
"Let's go around it, everyone stop looking!" Su Keke asked Chen Li to step back a little, then turn a corner and go around it.
After this twists and turns, the four of them stared at the floating objects in the flood more carefully, and the speed of the rubber boat slowed down a lot.
"Uncle Chen, look! There is a sign floating on the water over there. Doesn't it say Flower Field Breeding Base?" Meng Yi asked, pointing at a billboard.
"It's over! Even the signboard was washed away! There must be nothing left inside!" Chen Li was a little disappointed. He felt that all the trouble he had gone through wasted time!
"The drainage in the suburbs is better than in the city. The water here is not very high, it is estimated to be only one floor high. The factory buildings here are all two-story, maybe we can return with a full load this time!"
Su Keke stood up from the rubber boat and said with a smile.
"Is this true?" Why did Chen Li feel that what Su Keke said was a bit unreliable?
"Just go in and take a look and you'll know!" said Su Keke.
This is a poultry breeding base, and inside are the pig house, cow house, sheep house, chicken, duck and goose house.
The first floor was completely flooded. They left Chen Li on the rubber boat ready to provide support at any time, while Su Keke, Chen Da and Meng Yi all went up to the second floor.
Looking at each room one by one, there was nothing inside. Could it be that all the poultry here had been moved away?
When the three were about to leave in disappointment, Su Keke saw a pig floating out of the flood.
"Oh my god! A pig actually came across the ocean to find us!" Su Keke said excitedly.
"It's not that again! Keke, please don't scare me! Luckily I didn't eat breakfast this morning, otherwise I would have vomited it all out."
"Brother Meng Yi, it's really a pig. Look! It's still alive."
Su Keke stared at the pigs struggling in the flood not far away and spoke loudly.
Seeing this, the other two people quickly pulled Su Keke onto the rubber boat, and they followed the direction the pig was floating in.
Ten pigs were found struggling in the flood, and no one knew where they came from.
"Wow! Are we going to achieve pork freedom today? Pork elbows, here I come!" Meng Yi and Chen Li waved excitedly at the pigs.
"Don't be happy too soon. The rubber boat is full of people and we can't even take a pig back!" Su Keke immediately poured a basin of cold water on them.
"What should we do? We can't go into a mountain of treasures and come back empty-handed, right?" Chen Li said depressedly.
"Let two people go down first, and let the other two take the two pigs back first, and then come to pick us up!" Su Keke said.
"Oh! If only we had a big ship now. We could take all these pigs back." Chen Li said to Su Keke.
"Okay! Stop daydreaming!"
Su Keke said that she could stay and go to the second floor where she had been.
"Then I'll go with you! Let Uncle Chen and Chen Li take the pigs back first." Meng Yi said.
