Chapter 135 Entering the Evacuation Passage
Gu Luan didn't expect that instead of the rats, the crows came first.
Where do so many crows come from?
The crows outside seemed to be crazy. Even though they would get hurt, they still tried their best to hit and peck at the glass.
Especially in those rooms with lights, there are more crows around.
Jiang Xian and Gu Luan realized that the lights would attract more crows, so they quickly turned them off.
There was a knock on the door and an anxious voice came from outside.
"Is anyone there? Come out quickly and go to the escape passage."
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian turned around to open the door.
Outside the gate, there was a soldier standing right outside.
Seeing them, he said again, "Speed up and go to the escape route."
The soldier said, and strode to knock on another door.
Ding You from next door also opened the door and saw that Gu Luan and Jiang Xian were not dead. He muttered to himself.
The two men ignored the gossiping woman, just looked at her coldly and walked towards the stairs.
The escape passages that the soldiers mentioned are located under every building.
These escape passages lead directly underground and, generally speaking, people are not allowed to enter.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian followed the crowd to the first floor.
The escape route had been opened, with several soldiers guarding both sides.
People carrying luggage entered the passage one by one in an orderly manner.
A tense and uneasy atmosphere spread. Some people wanted to enter the passage early, but were stopped and warned by several soldiers.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian lined up quietly at the back without saying a word.
At the door of the unit, a dozen crows were attracted by the human scent.
They rushed over here, cackled, and then many more crows swooped down.
There were many gaps of varying sizes on the unit door, and several crows squeezed in through the gaps.
Several soldiers took out their guns and started shooting, then turned around and told the people in the queue to quickly enter the escape passage.
Countless people were frightened and entered the passage faster, and soon it was Gu Luan and Jiang Xian's turn.
The passage can accommodate four or five people side by side, and Gu Luan and Jiang Xian entered the passage.
The passage is dark and semicircular in shape.
There will be some dim lights several steps apart.
Gu Luan frowned and walked in the corridor.
Jiang Xian stayed by her side the whole time, holding her hand, for fear that something unexpected would happen and they would be separated.
Everyone walked quietly along with the crowd.
After a while, they came to a very large open space.
There were already numerous base residents standing inside, and soldiers and staff were arranging follow-up work.
Maybe because there are so many people underground, the thin air makes people feel very depressed.
Some people who were in a bad mental state just squatted on the ground and started crying.
They had finally come to live in the base, and thought the extreme heat was painful enough, but now crows appeared.
We don’t know what kind of disaster will happen in the future, we can’t live like this anymore.
There were too many people and the air was extremely hot and stuffy.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian finally found a relatively uncrowded place and squatted down.
She put her backpack in front of her and took out a cup filled with iced mineral water.
After drinking half of the water, Gu Luan gave the cup to Jiang Xian.
While he was drinking water, another fruit ice cube was stuffed into his mouth.
The two men's thief-like actions made Jiang Xian lower his head and raise his lips.
Soon everything calmed down again, as if nothing had happened.
Gu Luan stood close to Jiang Xian, holding a small fan in her hand and blowing it towards both of them.
Although it is not very useful, it is at least much better than not blowing.
It was very noisy all around, making Gu Luan feel very uncomfortable.
The stuffy environment and the mixed smells made it feel very uncomfortable.
Gu Luan took out a bottle of Fengyoujing and Jiang Xian took it.
"What's wrong?"
"My head hurts."
The pain she felt this time was purely caused by the smoke. Applying some wind oil could help her sober up.
Jiang Xian opened the Fengyoujing, poured some on his fingertips, and gently pressed Gu Luan's solar plexus.
Gu Luan closed her eyes, and her body instantly felt much better. The air even became much fresher.
"You put some on too."
Gu Luan opened his eyes and ignored the gazes from all around him.
Jiang Xian hummed and applied it on his own temples.
"Girl, can you please apply some of your Fengyoujing on my son?"
A short-haired woman beside him pulled a boy of about sixteen or seventeen and asked Gu Luan in a low voice.
There were several red and swollen pustules on the boy's right hand as it was being pulled.
Maybe it was too itchy, the boy would scratch it from time to time, even if the skin was broken.
Seeing the abscess on the boy's arm, Gu Luan frowned.
"It's useless to apply Fengyoujing. You should go see a doctor."
Gu Luan's kindness was misunderstood by the short-haired woman, who immediately changed her expression and said, "If you don't want to give it, then don't give it. What are you talking about finding a doctor? You don't need points to find a doctor?"
Gu Luan sneered and said no more.
"Mom, I'm so itchy. It's so uncomfortable."
The boy kept scratching the abscess with his hands.
His nails were stained red with blood, the wounds were horrific, and streaks of blood covered his arms.
"Son, stop scratching. It's all broken."
Not realizing the seriousness of the situation, the short-haired woman grabbed the boy's hand to stop him from scratching.
The boy's arms were itchy.
Unable to bear the fact that his left hand was grabbed, he pushed his mother away and started scratching again.
"Where's the doctor? Where is the doctor? Please save my son!"
Holding the boy's hand tightly, the short-haired woman shouted to a staff member.
The staff member came over, saw the boy's horrible arm, asked them to wait, and then left quickly.
Soon a nurse came running over with a medical kit.
She observed the boy's arm and said with certainty, "This is a bite from a poisonous insect. Why didn't you come to the hospital earlier?"
The poisonous insects nowadays are not the same as before the apocalypse. Once bitten, it is very easy to get into trouble.
Gu Luan took a look and then looked away indifferently.
She had already seen the cause of the wound on the boy's arm, which was why she asked the woman to see a doctor.
As a result, my kindness was taken as an insult!
"Lean on my shoulder and take a rest."
Jiang Xian gently pressed Gu Luan's head and let it lean on his shoulder.
He himself observed his surroundings sharply.
"I wonder how long you'll stay?"
Gu Luan would rather fight with the group of crows outside than stay here.
"Wait a little longer. If it takes a long time, we'll see what to do."
Jiang Xian patiently comforted Gu Luan and held one of her hands tightly.
The group didn't know how long they stayed there.
Some people couldn't stand this atmosphere anymore and stood up from their seats.
"Have the crows left yet? How long will it take us to leave?"
One person stood up, and then several more people stood up in the distance.
"Let us out. We want to see if the crows have left."
"Why are you keeping us locked up? What's going on outside?"
The situation gradually got out of control.
Many soldiers pointed guns at these people, and only when senior officials showed up to comfort them did they calm down.
"We'll send someone out to check. Everyone just be quiet and wait."
A man's serious voice came from the overhead broadcast, "If anyone insists on going out, we won't stop them, but they will bear the consequences at their own risk."
After hearing the man's words, those who wanted to go out hesitated, but some insisted on going out to take a look.
